Unheeded Gifts.
They placed rare lilies in her handsPoor
hands that scarce had touched a
flower?
And creamy rosebuds, whoso porfumo
Embalmed her lor her funeral hour.
They wrapped her form in lustrous silk,
And draped soft folds of filmy lace
About the slender, pulseless wrists,
And underneath the patient face.
At last she lay in perfect rest,
While voices?late so slow to praiseRehearsed
her many virtues o'er.
And spoke ol all her pleasant ways.
The sleeper heeded not the wealth
IK bloom that lay within her bands;
And not a word of love or loss
Her sealed ears could understand.
iho flAU'firc
Sinmge, we so uucu buv
To lay In folded hands at last!
And little luxuries of life
Withhold till care for them is past.
Strange that we do not oftener praise
The willing toiler by our side!
Why keep the full-blown (lower of love
Until our friend we loved has died?

Danger of Consumption.
The recently published statement of Drs
Prudden, Biggs and Loomis to the New York
Board of Health In regard to the contagious
ness if pulmonary tuberculosis (consump
tlon) and the means of protection therefrom
contains useful information that merits the
attention of every man, woman and child lr
the land. Briefly put, the substance of the
statement is that consumption is nollnher
lted, Is distinctly preventible and is often
cured. Tuberculosis is very common. Do
mestic animals, and especially cattle, are
frequently affected by It. About one-fourth
of the deaths of grown persons are caused
by It and nearly one-half of the entire popu
latlon acquired it at one time or anothei
during llle. It is caused by a living germ. tli<
tubercle bacillus, which finds its way intc
the body and multiplies there, it the condi
Hons favor, producing tubercles. These
tubercles soften and give out a discharge containing
the living germs, which is thrown of
from the body, when the tubercles are it
the lungs, constituting "consumption." th<
expectoration consists largely of these fata
germs. The latter do not grow outside th<
oody, but they retain their vitality aiu
virulence for a long time, even when thor
oughly dried. It is when dried and floating
ia the air as an impalpable dust that they art
most dangerous. Consumption iscommonlj
f>roduced by breathing air in which tha li vng
germs are suspended as dust, Theotigir
of the poison, as already stated, is chiefly in
the expectoration of persons suffering frotr
consumption. They cough up a sputum
which con tai ns germs in enormous quanliti's
This is deposited in places where it afterwards
dries, as on floors, carpets, clothing, handker
chiefs, <tc. When dry it readily breaks uj
into minute bits which float In tha air as dust
The entire snrrouudings of consuraptivt
(patients are made poisonous with this dust
Repeated experiments show that the dusi
gathered from almost any part of a bospita
ward, asylum, prison or private house when
a consumptive resides will produce tuberculo^
?- ?i ?lo with it. While tilt
Mb IU aillumto ,
dust from places where the disease does noi
exist has do suoli effect. It Is Important tc
note that the broath of a person having con
sumption does not commaficate the disease
nor does the spit of the consumptive patienl
communicate It so long as it is retained in lb
receptacle in a moist state. It is only when ii
eries and 18 scattered by currents of air thai
it is dangerons. The prenalent belief thai
consumption is hereditary is due to the facl
that the children of consumptives are mon
than others exposed to the tubercle bacilli
which find the way to their lungs froir
handkerchiefs, carpets,floors and the clothing
of the afflicted parent. It is conceded to bi
likely that the child may inherit a weak con
ditlon of the lungs, which renders it mort
liable than another to succumb, but it is now
known that the disease itself can becauset
only by the entrance of the germ into tin
body. It may enter otherwise than by waj
of the lungs. It may be transmitted by meal
or milk from auimals suffering from tuber
colosls. The milk of cows, whose lun^s art
affected, often coutains the llvlug tubcrch
bacillus, and the need of caution in the pur
chase of milk is emphasized by the'facttha
20 or 30 per cent, of stall-fed cows have tlx
disease. Boiling the milk and thoroughly
cooking the meat destroys the germs, am
this is a precaution that should mever b<
omitted when there is any reason to suspee
one's milk or beef supplies. Consumption is
however, as a rule, communicated from mai
to man througq the medium of the pericibui
dust whoseorgin we have described. Topic
vent the formation of this dust by prevent
in* the dryinS of the expebtorations of con
Burnptlve persons Is. therefore, the snly efl'ect
Ive means of preventing the extension o
consumption to those about the patient an(
of curing the patient himself. The patieti
may. dominlsh his cnanches of recovery b;
?elf3lnoculatlon If he neglects the prope
precautions. What, then. Is to be done
Only this, to bgrn the spitile of the consume

Handkerchiefs should be boiled very sooi
after being used by a consumptive person
In bis hands they are extreamely daugerou
articles. Expetoration on the floor or poicl
should not of course be thought of for a rac

JARMERS AND COTTON BAGGING.
Two KwtiinntON, One Showing Hoi

Other .Showing How .Much tlie I.om
Will Be On Jute.
Messrs. F. \V. Wegener & Co., of Charlei
ton, have issued the following circular:
The average quantity required of 45 inc
Jute bagging per bale is &/. yards, or for a 7,001
000 bale crop, 45,000,000 yards. The quotation
to-day for pound bagging (the weight yei
eraiiy used) are 8% Xew York; 8% Charlei
ton; 9%New Orleans; averaging, say,
per yard.
45,000,000 yards, at 8%, cost *4,038,125 Thli
at VA lbs. per yard, weighs
78,750,000 lbs., which sold as
cotton at 9c., is 7,0S7.5C
Showing profit to the planter ?3,049,3;
Cotton bugging, as now made, is 33 inchc
wide, and will require 8 yards to equal t?)
yards of Jute bagging. For a 7,000,000 bal
crop this would require 5#,000,000 yards
which, at 12J><{C., would cost the planters of th
South. $7,000,000 At3J4 lbs. per yarc
This would
weigh 42,000,000 lbs.; which,
sold as cotton at 9c, would be 3,730,000 Show
lag a loss to the planter on
a 7,000,000 bale crop 3,220,00
The actual diifereuce to the South of substl
- tuting cotton for jute bagging would, there
fore, be an actual loss on the cottou baggin
of... S3,lift),0C
And throwing away prottt on
Juto of. 3,010,37
Which is equal to 90c. per bale,
. .. or $6,269,37
There Is, besides, great uncertainty as to th
suitableness of this thin %pound cotton baj
glng, as proper protection of cotton again*
wuuihup jind dirt, and the great probanilit;
also that all cotton lor export may, when i
reaches the vessel, have to be recovered, a
the expense of the Interior seller1
When It has been arranged with the mat
ket* of the world to lake eotton at actual hire
it may be well, possibly, for planters to cove
their cotton with cotton covering; bur. unti
IblB has been satisfactorily adjusted, the rc
suit of this new departure may prove to be ,
serious loss to the South, and it will bo wel
for the people to go slowly until it has beui
positively established with the trade as ti
this very Important matter. We would suy
trust that the planters correspond with the col
ton exchanges, and if possible arrange ti
have of tare cotton covering determined. Thi
will require time, but It Is better to start righ
than|by taking the chances to lose millions
The motto of our farmers should be: "H
sure you are right and then go ahead," am
they should not allow a prejudice to get tin
better of their judgments.
Yours truly
F. W. Wage nek. <v Co.
According to the above, the farmers are pre
paring to throw away somethiug like SI.OUO,
000. But the Atlanta Journal takes up th<
other side of the question and shows that tin
cotton producer will make, instead of lose, Itj
using cotton bulging, as will be seen from thi
lollowing:
Messrs. Wagenor & Co. admit that a nev
phase of the problem would be presented if tlx
question of tare oil cotton cloth was settle J
VV'e ure glad to give them some news. Tin
Cotton Exchange of New Orleaus endorse!
the demaud of the National Alliance for th<
allowances on all cotton backing covered"
hales, and calls on all the other cotton exchanges
to follow their lead.
We think the Charleston firm lias blundered
some in its figures. We are not accustomed
to handling millions, so we will estimate
on one tale of cotton. That is more modest.
Jnte bagging will be worth !?}/; cents per yard.
If not more." It certainly will not bo sold for
less, voluntarily. A syndicate of bagging
manufacturers met the committeo from the
alliance in Birminsham, and that is the low.
est pricc that would be gauranteed. Six and
a half yards of jute bagging is required to
cover a bale of cotton, and at 1J)< cents a yard
the cost per bale will be a little less than sixty
cents. This much the farmer must pay the
jute men. He will, in selling his cotton, get
pav for his bagging at !> cents a yard. Six
and a half yards, weighing one and threefourth
pounds per yard and sold at i) cents
will bring him $1*02, making a net gain of 42
cents, which the farmer makes on his jute
hanging.
How about the cotton cloth? lie must
have seven ynrds at 12 1-2 cents. It will weigh
*> IJl pounds, and when he sells his cotton at
nino cents ho will get fortyjseven cents, 47
Jle is allowed eight pounds tare on
cotton cloth (noueon jute), which, at'J
cents a pound, will be <
111)
Making a net gain of H114 cents on the bale.
Hut it is estimated, and we think the est it
mate a safe and conservative one that 125.000
bales of cotton will be consumed in making
the cotton cloth, and that the consutnptibn of
this mnch will raise the price one-eighth of a
cent per pound, or 50 cents for a bale of 150
pounds. Add this to the gain ot '.\\y, cents,
and we have forlcoiton cloth a gain "of S7}/j
cents iu? against 10 cents for jute.
And who con estimate the vast benefit to
the Southern country which will result from
the spreding of the millions of dollars in our
own section in the manufacture of cotton
cloth? Jt will be be manufactured from the
product of Southern fields by Southern labor
in Southern mills and will be handled alone
by Southern men. Every dollar of the proceeds
will be spent in the South. Vast and
far-reaching will be the benefit. Who will
not wish It God speed?
The jute men are now willing to sell their
stuff at 'J% cents per yard. Last season they
demanded 13 to H, and squeezed the farmer*
out of millions. We feel like shouting hallelujah
wheu we realize that they cannot do so
any more.
Bettor than Blue Grass and Clover.
The Atlanta Constitution publishes some
infomation in regard to the u$e of cotton
seed hulls for feeding stock, which will be of
interest to the farmers and owners of cotton
li seed oil mills in South Carolina, and which
' should double the number of such mills
within a few years.
' An Atlanta firm, says the Constitution.
[ fattened 5, .SOO beeves last yeas on cotton sepd
: hulls from the oil ini.'ls, at a profit of $20,000.
| Two train loads of these beeves were shipped
r?? A>ir,nta in fi pi nil in nnd sold there
la competition with Chicago beef. The same
' firm will fatten 10,000 steers next winter. Mr
Joel Chandler Harris, of Atlanta, who is an
' authority on stock raising, feeds his herd of
Jerseys on cotton seed hulls and says that
' the result in milk, butter and beef is 'amaz"
ing." Mr W. M. Towers, of Home, writers of
, an experiment with corn cotton seeds meal,
and cotton seed hulls, in which the hulls
produced by far the best, results.
A practical farmer has also toid the Constitution
of a test which he made recently, on a
j small scale, the results of which confirmed
all that has beea said regarding the value of
, the new feed. One of two steers was fed, in
this experiment, "on all "the shelled con and
; wheat straw that "he would catthe other
j was fed 011 cotton seed hulls and meal, and
"gained, at "one-third the cost, ninety pounds
more "of flesh." This authority declares that
; cotton seed hulls "will produce better "and
; bigger results, as a food for "cattle and sheep,
than all the clover and "blue grass of Tennes'
see. Kentuey and "Ohio," and will enable
Southern farmers to "compete with beef
raised on the "Western plains and to uudersellevery
"picceof mutton or beef that grazes
on "blue grass or clover." The development
; of the stock raising industry in Georgia next
J year, in consequence of the discovery of the
value of cotton seed hullsfor feeding purposes,
says the same farmer, "will "be tremen;
dous," and the Constitution confirms the
prediction.
: The hulls of the cotton seed have been used
| as fuel by the cotton oil mills heretofore, but
I promise to become now one of the most im'
portant of their products. The discovery of
I the value of the hulls, at auy rate, assures an
. additional source of income to the mills, and
makes them still more useful to the communities
in which they are located. It has been
shown in The News and Courier that less
r than one-fourth of the seed product of South
. Carolina was consumed in all the large mills
[ that were in operation last year. It is evi.
dent, therefore, that there is room in the
: State for double or treble the number of small
, mills that are now established or projected,
, and one or more should be built as soon as
practicable in every county that is nor all
| ready provided with at least one such mill.

Eat Honey.
Thousands and tens of thousands of cliil]
Jren are dying all around us, who, because
I their ever developing nature demands sweet
uess, crave and eagerly eat adulterated "can
dies" and "syrup" of modern times. Jf these
I would be fed on honey instead, they would
. develop and crow U|> Into healthy men and
> women. Children would rather eat bread and
? butter: one pound of honey will reach as far
^ .is two pounds of butter, and has, besides, the
t advantage of being far more healthy and
j pleasant tasting, and always remains good,
while butter soon becomes rancid, and often
j produces a crump in the stomach, eruptions,
j soreness, vomiting and diarrhce. l'ure honey
l should always be freely used In every family.
Honey eaten upon wheat bread is very bene j
ticial to ileal th. The use of honey instead of
s sugar lor almost every kind of cooking is as
I pleasant for the palate as it is healthy for the
. stomach. In preparing blackberry, raspberry
_ or strawberry shortcake. It is infinitely supe
rior. Itisacommou expression that honey
} is a luxury, having nothing todo with the life
i giving principle. Thin is an error. Honey is
t food in one of its most, concentrated torms.?
True, it does not add so much to the growth
r of muscles as does beefsteak, but it does lm7
part other properties no less necessary to
, health and vigorous physical and intellectual
action. It gives warmth to the system, arousj
es nervous energy and eives vigor to all the
. vital functions. To the laborer it gives
j strength?to the business man, mental force.
^ Its effects are not like ordinary stimulants, as
, spirits, etc., but it produces a healthy action,
the results of- which are pleasing and permad
nent?a sweet disposition and a bright intellect.

rpHESE WORKS WERE ESTABLLSAED In
J. 1S47 by Messrs. Geo. Sinclair and James Anderson
and purchased by mo In tlie year 1356, and
from that time till now carried on successfully by
myself. My friends and customers will bear witness
ofthc large and stupendousjobsexecuted by uie. It
was at my works where the largest and almost only
job of Its class ever executed in this city was done
viz.: the making of tho pipes for the City Water
Works in the year 1858.
My stock of patterns for ARCHITECTURAL
WORK, COLUMNS for Store fronts, is largo and
various,and in RAILINGS for Balconies, Gardens,
and Cemeteries I have the largest variety and most
modern patterns; many of these are patented and I
have purchased the ripht for this State.
In tho machine line I can furnish my patrons with
STEAM ENGINES and HOILEKS of any size and
description. My CIRCULAR SAW MILLS have
carried off theprizeat cv?ry State Fair held In this
city, and in their construction I have taken pains to
combine simplicity with the most useful modern improvements,
and may flatter myself that my CIRCULAR
SAW MILLS find favor with every sawyer who
understands his business.
Tho many orders I am steadily receiving for SUGAR
CANE MILLS prove that the public appreciate
the mill." of my make, and so it Is with my GEARING
for HORSE POWERS. GIN WHEELS, GRIST
MILLS and other MACHINERY. .
I have the manufacturing rlshtsof many PATENTS
such as castings for COTTON AN1) HAY
PRESSES. IIAWLEY CORN SHELLER and three
or four FEED CUTTERS and other implements.
I will be pleased to send my circulars to any applicant,
together with price list or estimate. Mv prices
are moderato, and I assure the public that they are
lowereven than those of Northern manufacturers, and
that my work will compare favorably with that of any
other maker. Address
