Kept the altar fires burning, With the incense of their tears; How their love, in streams of blessing, Wore its (lhannels deep and wide, Bore the forunes of the battle, Oi its broid and surging tide; How their faith, that trusted ever, Rested on the soldier's shield, Watched above the bloody carnage, And upon thie tented field; How the summer bloomed and faded, Yet did Love and Trust abide, But.their hopes, like shattered roses, With the autumn glory died. Then from out the burnipg embers, Love and hope and faith and trust Soared above the desolation, Shook their plumage of its dust; Returning, brought the sprig of olive, S2.w the bov of pro:nise spannsd, And the dawn of peace and plenty O'er a broad and smiling land. But the heart kn6ws no forgetting, - Ani within her silent halls. Where the fragrant incense rises And the inner sunlight falls, Hang the swords and rusty scabbards, With the coats of faded Gray, And perfumed with myrrh and aloes, All the flags are laid away. And beside the faded banners, 4nd the urns of storied dust, Memory stands within the portals, Keeping watch above her trust. Winnsboro, S. C. To Mr. Cotton Farmer's Wife. (From the Progresive Farmer.) Dear Mrs. Farmer: Have you thought seriously about the Southern Cotton Association? Do yogi know what it is and what it stands fovx Now if you do not know w this Association has done, and is doing, I want to tell you right here that your husband is asleep or else he knows things that he thinks are too big for his wife to uuderstand. Now, madam, don't you wait n old blayseed husband one min - ate; he : b 4 number; he doesn't know that the ivi War~ is over. Auy man who lies not told his wife~ that the Cotton As sociation hsd put him in sha.pe to fill the longest and biggest stocking the child could find last Christmas eve, is always behind the porcession. Shake sour old man, and ask him what in the Gy f goodness ever promptedE him to byy ; !aw comb, brush and looking gh s . You want to know h4ow it is that for once in your life you have a whole bolt of bleached jomestic in your house and that uowou do not haie to cut and aem the bottom of a big bran sack, run a draw stringt in the top of it .d say, "here, Mary, I have ~ada ypg a new petticoat." Mrs, Farmer; yog certainly .1 raut to know 1how in th woF4 , ;he old man can afford to buy a ~olar's worth of granulated 1 ~ugar at one time, when before he f iought but two pounds of the ~ 3heapest brown sugar. For one cent you can learn all bout it. Ju~st take a postal card and address it to President Farvie Jordan, Atlanta, Ga, and tell him to send you the circular, :What the Southern Oottan Asso- ( i'atin Stands For." Write that card to-d.y! Madam, do you know that it is lirety against you and your1 hildten to allow your hus band to sell his cotton crop for future de ivery?2 If sour husband has sold his un~pted crop, by so doing he robs ou and the children of _ many comforts next winter. He is helping the speculators to keep dow the price of cotton. Not only dee3 he injure you but he( prevents his neighbor from get tgfair comnpensation for his la-t Talk to the ol ma~n. Wake him u: and ask him if he knows what is going ou in the South. Pecr old hayseed-he would now be in the poorhouse if it were not for his wife's chickens, eggs and butter. He don't know how to sell to baco or cotton; these crops make hisn pozrer every year. Whiy, theold sleept hL:d can't buy a p -; pr d unless be bor zow t. ai >Ug' rflnhus wife.

It entirely stopped the bric1; dust sediment, and I pan and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that I have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four years that have elapsed and I am evidently cured to stay cured, and heartily reconmend Foley's Kidney Cure to any one suffer ing from kidney or bladder trouble."

A few days ago while crossing the public square, winding in and out between tha scores of' guano laden wagqns, we came across an 'told time" colored man who was feeding his mule beside his wagon. Among othor.thing we asked him how in the world the people were going to pay for so much guano, and he replied, with a chuckle, "Scratch in de dirt fer it."
