You Will Forffot.
You will forget?a few swift hours.
Fortune and fame and ull to woo,
And ere the bloom forsakes tlie flowers .
The lips you kiss have kissed for you.
And ere the morrow's sua is set,
You will forget.
You will forget?a mile or so.
And out of sight is out of mind; c
The easy tears soon cease to How
Wheulife's before and love's behind ;
Aye, love, while still your eyes are wet, *
Yon will forget. t
Yon will forget?in other years 1
When you behold that while stars shine 1
We fee so dimly through the tears; p
\\ hen you shall p^ss these doors of mine,
Or that dear spot where tirsi we met, ,
You will lorgct. ,
You will forget?let uie love on, ,
^ You have been all in all to me;
So when the past is dead and gone. I
Like some golden phautasy,
Let rae love on to pay my debt? ,
You will lorget. (

Some of our planters are complaining of a

theyneed. The trampsaud other idlers could
be made useful in this section. .
Last Monday morning, having business at \
Abbeville C H., the undersigned, accompan- ,
led by his wile, leit for that place. As we 4
neared Monterey, we decided to accept the ;
oft-repeated invitation of our kind friends Mr.
and Mrs. G. W. Speer to visit them. We accordingly
stopped, and received from them a *
most cordial welcome. Our stay with them
of two or three hours was passed in social
converse, partly concerning the past and
partly concerning the present. During our
stay we partook ol a very rellshable dinner.
Wa KoHq ihom allien, find then on to Mr. Da- ,
vld Thomas.' where we called auotherhalt, "
and there we met ourold friend l)r. Thomas.
A short time only could be spent with these
kind friends. Judging from the number oi .
cotton bales piled up, it. was easy to conclude '
that Mr. Thomas is independent?a home- '
liver?one who has not been allected or hurt .
by the ard times. About an hour's drive *
brought us to Abbeville to the home of Mrs. _
A. G. Moseley, where we were cordially welcomed
and well entertained. The next morn
iug, business called us into the suburbs of
that flourishing town, in several directions,
and we were much surprised at the rapid fill- j
ing up that has taken place. It seems but a
very short time since Abbeville proper was, n
or could have been, confined to a very small <
area, and her growth seemed to be very uncer- "
tain. Now all, or nsai ly all, available spaces
and sites are being utilized by erecting upon
them dwellings of modern architecture, beauty
and fluish, which makes her oue of the
prettiest towns in the up-country. a
Perrlne's comet, which some of the observatory
professors said was coming toward the J
earth at tbe rate of l.GOO.UOO miles a day, and
would iprobably strike It some time day before
yesterday, did not strike. Well, we are
glad. But then, a comet, or some other powerful
agent will have to come along, and
knock the world into Its original, in order I
that a new one may be started?the people of !
this old one are becoming too smart. Look at s
the wonderful inventions of tbe past few r
years, for increasing tbe knowledge of tbe o
human family. Look at the last one, what h
powerful stride has been made in photogra- r
phy by Prof. Roentgen in his x rays, which
neither flesh nor blood nor wood, nor metai
can stop! What next? Troupe. J

NOVEL Sl"IT FOR DAMAGES.
X. R. Reese Sued for 810,000 by (he
Administrator ol the Estate of C.
T. Williams Reese .Hust Surreml- r
er for Trial or Lose His Fortune. Q
The Yorkville Enquirer o( yesterday states t
that there has been another interesting deve- l
lopment io the Reese-Williams homicide <
case. Through his attorneys, Messers. W. B. u
McCaw and Flnley and Brice, Mr. J. H. Kid- l
die, administrator of the estate of Charles T.
Williams, the man who was killed at Blacks- e
burg on the night of Februaiy 6, last, has fj
brought suit against Keese for.damages In the 6
sum of ?10,000.
The papers in the case were filed In the office
of the clerk of the court on March G, and
from them it appears that the suit is brought
uuder what is known as the Uord Campbell 1
Act. This Is an old English law, which per- I
mits the dependents of an individual who J
dies from violence to recover damages from
the Individual at whose hand the violence
was committed. The suit has been brought ..
in behalf of NY llliams's widow and chi Id. J
As a preliminary to the suit, the sheriff has
attached all the property of the defendant,
Reese, that could be found, Including a number
of houses and lots in town of Blacksburg. r
and various mortgages on record in the office .
of the clerk of the court. The property at- c
tached is almost, if not quite, enough to cover i
the entire claim for damages. (
The proceedings are of more than ordinary i
significance. The defendant is a fugitive from [
justice. The understanding is that he is to k
present himself for trial. If he fails to do so.
it may be taken as a foregone conclusion that t
1 hi? hf?irt nf t >i n rl will win f liplr unit r
and get all of his property. This fact will
further tend to Insure his appearance; but
not necessarily at the next term of the court.
Unless he is served with the papers in the
case, personally, six weeks must elapse before
the case can be heard. If the defendant 1
is convicted in the criminal court, then it is a I
foregone conclusion that he will lose the verdict
in the civil suit also; but if he should be
cleared of the charge of homicide the other
suit wlli also fall to the ground. Under any 1
circumstances, the case is interesting.
GOOD FOR FARMERS.
<
A Public Spirited Lawyer Comes to )
Their Rescue. j
W. N. Uraydon, Esq., one ol the best lawyers
at the Abbeville bar, Is also a good far- t
?ner. Realizing the needs of the brother far- ^
mers lie has offered to sell his surplus oats t
anu corn to neeuy liners 01 me sow. m ms
thoughtfulness in helping out the farmers
Lawyer Graydon deserves their thanks. When
he lias leisure hours in the evenings or
moruiDgs he plants and labors to benefit the ,
real farmers 01 the country by furnishing '
them good seed to plant. The man who helps
the farmers to good seed is a public benefactor,
and if no one looked alter the best interests
of agriculture, what would become of the farmers
that have no seed, no turnip patches, no 1
barley, no potatoes, no cabbage?

There is more real religion in paying

True contentment depends not on

too small for Alexander.
1 The imagination is a wonderful
thing. One need only insinuate a

rue missing key. jegj
What Else Could Be Expected on Her mo
Wedding Day? 1
It's benoath a woman's dignity to keep an^
track of keys. wa
A girl who has been bridesmaid four j
times, and thereby cut herself off from all ],a,
prospects of matrimony says, this is what
happens at every wedding: Tho brido
gives minuto and particular directions jr..
about tho packing of hor trunk. Shekuows
to within tho one hundredth, of an inch
tho exact location of overy frill and furbe- I
low and looks on whilo various members Go
of the family assist in cramming the trays the
In and forcing tho lid down. Methods of wll
accomplishing this differ?sometimes it tilr
closes easily and sometimes it is necessary yoi
to jump up and down or sit on it. Then '
the brido to be orders somo one to put a yoi
strap around it, but one person leaves it fut
to another until tho moment for departure 0Uj
arrivos. At this juncture the discovery is js |
mado that the trunk is not locked, the fec
keys are missing and everybody wonders res
where the fitrap can bo. ,
Twenty minutes until train time.
"Where's your trunk key?" someone ^
asked tho groom. "My dear, tney are bsk- ~jy
ing for the key to your trunk. Whore is
it?"
"The key (in some perplexity). Why j
?why, on my key ring, of course; the lit- c'11
tie silver ono you gave me that time; don't mmm
you remember, dear?"
"Certainly?on the key ring." To the ^
anxious searchers, " You'll find the trunk W
key on a small, heart shaped key ring, my ?
wife 6ays," replies the happy young man.
"But where is that?" comos in chorus, f
"I'm sure I don't know," falters the ^
bride almost in tears. "Oh, never mind. ^
There, there; bother the trunk. What do
we care?" says the groom. ^
The bride has a happy thought. "George, ^
I have two keys to that trunk." A
"Well, you'ro a wiso little woman," in ^
tones of pride from the young husband, f
while the aunts and cousins say, "Sho has ^
another key." ^
"But they wore both on the same key
ring," continues the bride, and the gener- *
al anxiety is redoubled.
The girl who has been a bridesmaid four
times says the first time this happenod the ^
key turned up at the last minute insido of ( *
the trunk, and after that she has always V
looked there the first thing and has never \
failed to find it.?Chicago Record. ^ 1

TOILET SUGGESTIONS.
Hints From a Beauty Doctor That Will
Improve Poor Complexions.
Freckles are due to an excoss of coloring
po
matter deposited in the second layer of the ck
skin underneath the cuticle. They are
caused by an excess of iron in the blood.
If they are not of very dark color, they
can be bloached out, but if they are of tho
pronounced brown species, their removal _
will consist in destroying tho outerlayers La
of the skin.
A paste composed of vinegar, honey and
bitter almonds is said to be good for removing
freckles. _
As a general thing the blood is not re- =
sponsible for the different blomishos which
appear on the fuce. Dirt gets into the
pores of the skin, and the result is an erup- ?
tlon of some sort. ?
Pimples should be opened with a needle ^
or sharp knife, the secretion squeezed out d
and a lotion of a wineglass of strong vine- 4
gar, two ounces of glycerin and half a *
pint of distilled water applied. ^
For peoplo troubled with moist or oily ^
skin, a hot soapsuds bath once a week is #
recommended, using castile soap, as it is ^
of a drying nature. Bay rum and camphor 6
may be used by such persons, as thoy dry 4
the oil somewhat, when tho camphor *
would parch other complexions. The opi- J
um found in the stems of flowering lettuce T
refines the skin and absorbs the oil. Rub ?
the milky juico collected from broken ^
stems of garden lettuce cm r the face ac m
night, allowiug it to dry on. 5,
Wrinkles depend on the attmuation of
the skin and the reduction in bjlk of the ?
underlying surfacial portions oi the body.
They are not a diseaso, but are the results ^
of worry, grimaces, poor health, etc. ^
Wrinkles ought not to appear before the 4
fiftieth year, but how often wo soe thoin 4
at 25. The more delicato the skin the more J
subject it Is to theso disfigurements.? J

Closing Scenes of Dumas' Life. f
The particulars of the manner in which J
M. Alexandre Dumas speut his last day, W
given by those who were present at Villa J
Champfleur, at Marly, are interesting. 4
The Improvement whicli had been noted in m
the morning continued the whole day, so ^
that the members of tho family folt their 4
hopes rovive. The doctors seem to have J
been rather skeptical, but Mine. Dumas x
and the duughters of the celebrated writer ?
were overjoyed. W
Tho patient was cheerful and smiling. 4^
He even joked, and had, in the morning,
turned everybody out of the room by an ?
afifcotionato rebuke. He said: "This is
really too much. What are you all doing, ^
sitting about in my room? It is really ex- \
traordinary. Cannot I bo left alone in my ^
own apartment? My childron, you really ^
tnirn ndvnntjiro nf mv crnod nature."
They wero all going out, but ho called ^
them back again, smiling, and everybody ^
laughed with him. At noon, however, he a
sent them to tho dining room for break- ^
fast and asked for a cup of tea for him- ^
self. Ashe had done in tho early morning, ^
he took the cup in both hands and drank ^
the tea without any difficulty. Mme. Dumas
trembled with mingled joy and fear; ?
she dared not believo in what seemed so
extraordinary an improvement. m
It was close upon 7 o'clock when tho ^
change occurrod; tho patient suddenly ex- f
perionced two successive nervous tremors, ^
and fell buck dead in the doctor's arms.? 0
London Standard. ^
It. Does Make a Difference. In
Munster rocently a man received
threo years' penal servitude for attempting
to poison his wife by administering to her
sulphate of zinc in whisky. At Leeds a
woman was condemned to 20 years' penal
servitude for attempting to murder her hus
- ? ?-?* 1 x ? M
Dana oy aaraimsienug puisuu m ma *uv>u.
It is certainly difficult to account for this
vast difference in tho punishment in two
such similar cases, and o lady correspondent
insinuates that to the woman were
given 20 years because the judges, being
men, naturally regard tho crime as more
heinous in a wife than in a husband. My
own opinion, aftor reading the reports, is
that the woman got no more than she deserved,
but the man a good deal less.?
London Truth.
Good Temper. ^
Good tempor is tho most contonted, the
most comfortablo stato of tho soul; the \
greatest happiness both for those who pos- *
sess it and for those who feel itsinfluenco.
With f?entlonoss in his own chaructor,
comfort in his home and good temper in ^
his wife, the earthly felicity of man is \
complete.?Anon. f

A missionary iu China writing to 0
friends in this country not long ago ^
told something which seems very ^
strange to us. ?
He said that he saw large bodies of ^
Chinese soldiers marching to meet, the J
Japanese, and, instead of the weapons ^
we should expect to see iu the hands of &
soldiers, many were holding umbrellas
or carrying fans, while every tenth v
man bore a banner. And some one ^
jlse has said that umbrellas and fans 0
were even carried into *>attle by some ^
)f the soldiers. ^
