I have seen quite a number of plant beds during the last few days and they show up very conspiciously in the absence of plants, though it is to be hoped that a few warm days will bring them up.

There are hun- dreds of places where something like this might be said as the result of the |’ vate. There is no class of men that re- ceive mere benefit from manufactoiries of various kinds than farmers, and yet, as a general thingf they take but little interest in improvements of this kind beeause they feel no direct interest in them, when if they will reflect for a moment they are probably benefitted more than other class of men. The following clipping from the Wilmington Star is timely and contains facts that are worth considering. Kvery farm- er should feel deeply interested in the establishment of manufactoiries and '|they have as much right and should show an interest in such things as much so as men of other professions. It is on account of this neglect of such im- portant things that has dragged down the agricultural profession and causes everyone that can get anything else to do to show it, when in point of fact it | should be the most desirable and one of the most lucrative professions. + manufacturing industries.” Miss Blinn’s Lecture. The first:lecture to ladies on Health and the care of the body, will be given tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 o'clock in the Cuurt: House. ‘The subject will be | “Health in its relation: to Beauty,” and the charts bearing upon this phase of the subject will be fally explained. No admission is charged, and all ladies, both moth2rs and daughters beyond the age of 12 years, are eordially invited to | attend. ~A large audience of ladies was pre sent at Bogaat Opera House yesterday afternoon to listen to the lecture -of “As a general thing farmers take but little interest in the establishment of manufactories and yet there is no class of people who derive more benefit from manufactories than the farmers.

This may seem to some thought- | : ©” |gubject with grace and ease, and the less or extravaga nt assertion, but it can be easily shown and is being practically shown wherever mauufactories in any considerable number exist. “Maxufactories increase population, consumers of what is produced upon the farm. The greater the number of manutactories the greater the increase of population. Wherever manufactor- ies center there cities spring up and grow. Why isit that farming iands near a city are worth so much more than lands at a greater distance? In point of fertility and capacity to pro. duce a variety of crops there may be no ‘difference between them, but the land within a mile or two of the city may command a hundred dollars an acre or more while the same character of land 4} {twenty miles distant, -unless on a rail- road line, might not bring ten dollars an acre. The reason is of course apparent to every one’ The farmer near the city has a market at his door which he can reach in an hour or so, and every day find sale for something, for any- thing that is worth cultivating oy rais- ing. ‘There are gardeners within a few miles of New York ity who on few ucres of land make from eight ‘o ten thousadd dollars a year.

Miss Blinn had a very good audience of ladies out to hear her lecture on “Health” yesterday afternoon.

His sphere of usefulness, although not so ubi- bebo is quite as important as at of the great contemporaries. His single weekly paper is in miniature the seven issues per week of the great dailies. His constituency is often the most ‘moral and high-minded to be found.in the domain of history. | He reaches the homes of brain and brawn that send to the. col- leges and cities the great, well- balanced men of the age. He may not uproot scandal, ‘expose corruption, tear down religious and political parties, create em- pires or crush dynasties, but he reaches and influences the ma- jority of the army of boys who, in after years, fight the great bat tles of life 1n the pulpit, at the bar, i in the hospital, and even be-: come bis most distinguished co- workers in journalisin. The country editor may take wood and potatoes for his sub- scription price, but he never lies about his circulation.

He may publish three pages of patent insides to one v* original matter, but he never steals the news and brains of others because |@ geographical difference cf time favors his Jocation. He may set/. his own type and turn the crank of his own press, but he never scales down the wages of nis em- ployes, nor treats. printers like cattle nor pays starvation wages toreporters. He may deplore cer- tain local usages and want of appreciation of his columns’ by business men, but he never pur- sues people who have no means for reply with vindictive hate, with vile cartoons and outrageous per- secuticn to the grave.

Wives Inaptly Bestow Them Upon Their Husbands. The little god of love betrays eyen dignified people into the ‘most ingeni- ously incongruous terms of endear- ment sometimes. And this in defiance af the fact that the real love words of every language are the most musically beautiful combinations of sounds pos- sible, ~$o sweetly melodious are. our own “darling,” “dearest,” “sweetheart,” that one is fain to pity him or her who has never heard them tenderly uttered vith a special application. Wiuile th: French “mon ami,” “cherie,” “ma mignonne,” etc., are spoken music, and even the German “meine geliebste’ might glorify that strong language. “Toney,” “deazie,” “sweet,” are still on the right side of the ridicuious. leven i is admissible, though it ence oc- curred to me that to address swarthy, six-foot, 250-pound Cuban at a publi. dinner as “petite” might be just on the borderland. . But where the divine passion is rea}- ly dominant, all these expressions are quite too commonplace. * 1 know a_well-built, well-groomed man of the world, with a strong, mascu- lne.,face, a splendid, athletic figure, sianding six feet three inches in, his his bearing. His enraptured w-fe finds ro word so expressive of her apprecia- tion of his echurms as “Kitien.” She, by the way, is Juno, and he, not to be outdone in maiters of the heart, also ealls her “Kitten.” So it is Kitten and Kitten, until Tam sure they have foi: gotten that the English languoge po-- sesses proper nouns, in gencra! usage in polite soriety. Then there is a fat man with pudgy face and protruding figure. Nothing seems to satisfy the soul of his doting wife but Birdie. Birdie he is, Birdic he must be though all the world would blush for ft. Then I cannot forget one of my dear friends whose husband, 20 years her senior, is a hard-hcaded business man, who is said sometimes to wander into “ways that are dark, and tricks thatate vain.” Happily, I do not know just what she calls him during these periods. But { do know that during his temporary lapses into virtue she is « most devoted, loving wife, and that when her passion for him is at moder- ete height she contents herself with “mall tiveetness,” and “cunning singie,” but when it rises to flocd tide. she casis upon him the most loving and languishing glances and calls hin “Crow.” Another tall, gaunt, raw-boned, iil- favored trie: 1d is also worthy of passing mention. His hair is carrot-colored and scraggly, his neck so thin that it resembles nothing so mueh as a snarl of strings, while his hands, feet jnd unatomy generally rall up visions of Ichabod Crane. His aifectionate spouse coud find no name for him that sO pleased her fancy as “Puddin.” She scolded him as “Puddin” and loved him s “Puddin.” As “Puddin”® he was cowed, driven and bullied, and as “Pud- din” he was coaxed, wheedled and caressed, There is a well-known editor of one of this country’s great papers, a man of stalwart frame, keen countenance, bril- liant intellect. To his wife he is “lity one,” and she to him is “Preshy” (pre- cious). lt, is surprising that a delicate, re- fined, high-bred woman could best ex- | press her ardor for her husband in the words “Sndoks” and “Shoppy,” yet i have known sueh to be the case; aud it would scem as though a digmile: proiessor might object to being called “Tfubby,” but I have scen him respond { to it with e smile so wide that the Cheshire cat wasn’t init. One prominent literary man rarely addresses his tiny voung wife as any- thing . but “UC d,” avhich is not inap- propriate if somewhat uanyusical. But it is aupually the very little man with the enormous wife whose ebtlitions of/sen- timental tenderness can ‘only find ex- ‘prescion in calling hér “Baby.” These are by no means the vagaries of youth.and inexperience. I was once traveling in one of the western states, when a.groom of about 70 came aboard with a blushing bride. of perhaps 65, They soon became oblivious, and this vonversation was heand: He—Whose ittle Lammie? She—Bof of us. And perhaps all are familiar with the overheard vonversation between the Concord school of philosophy professor pai the Vassar graduate: V. G.—Darling? Ph. D.— Yes, darling. V.
