Mr. E. E. Williams exhibited at the receut
Carnival at Abbeville several bundles of Jodder
which was pulled sixty years ni?o by hie
grandfather starling Williams. Roger Williams,
lather of E. E. Williams put it in the
barn when he was sixteen years old. Half
dozen bundles were on exhibition. Three
bundles were given to the Carnival people,
and three bundles were given to Mr. William's
male, while here. The fodder is said
to have been in a good state of peservation.
Second Hand Type.
The Press and Banner has a quantity
of second hand job type which a purohaser
can get at his own price. The type is good
and uselul for advertising or job work. We
desire to make room for other type, and the
type which is advertised is too good to be
sold as old metal. We would sell it for a
trifle, or exchange it for anything that we
could use.
If you are In the market, come and seee It,
or write to The Press and Banner,

While the days which are prominent
for cheerfulness and good will are upon
us, there are many whose lives are
overshadowed by clouds of thickest
gloom ; aud as our hearts go out to
them, we should not hesitate to come
down the mouutain side to their
humble homes and sip with them,
ihat we may bring a ray of sunshine
into their own lives.
When Jesus longed to fynake the
Samaritau woman happy he met her
iu her own valley and willingly made
her his beuefactress. "Give me to
drink" reached the woman's heart,
and gave to the world one of the most
helpful lessons.
Because the great heart of Christ
beat in sympathy with humanity, he
w&s willing to endure the scoffs and
rebukes of scribes aud Pharisees that
be might win the publicau, and
sinners by associating with them.
And in answer to the murmurings
of his enemies he carefully laid before
them three forcible parables, the last of
which not only presented a telling
illustration of God's boundless love,
but a cutting denunciation of their
cold-hearted news toward human beings.
I believe Christians have erred
iu that they have had the tendency to
say harsh things against these who fill
the low places because of their sins,
jusicau ui ^uiu^aiuuu^ lueiu uiiii^ ncquently
to inspire them with motives
that might operate to bring them up.
If we would seriously study the environments
of such persons, and consider
the ten thousand stumblinghlocks
over which they blindly fall, we
should feel prompted to use more
persuasion and less condemnation. It
is all right for us to condemn the sin,
hut let us refrain from pouring out our
hurtling wrath upon the sinners.
The world is slow to learn the moat
important lesson in the unselfish life of
Christ. Though he was rich, for our
sakes he became poor ; though he was
spotless in purity, hia great heart led
him to associate with the unrighteous;
though he was sinless, his burning love
brought him to the cross, where he
suffered for the siuful of the worldall
to drive out the evil results that
came from the lack of love for human
souls, which has ever prevented the
races from beintr bound in such a way
as to cause one individual to be willing
to suffer for another. Christ came
down that he might lift human souls
from the foul heart of sin up to the
pure heart of God ; from the throne to
the manger; from the manger to the
cross; from the cross back to the
throne. Let us learn this great lesson
and teach it to others.

THE WIVES OF FARMERS
j-j..
The tbe farmer's wife,

much o&titejlitjrotion which they
deserve. Tfaffy raffllscuseed at farmer's

practical gQ^SfijByjdtimately be accomp'ished.
?n| Hv two papers on
the subject bav^HHread by women.
One was by^MK. Lucy Cleaver
McElroy of L&baflpn, Ky. She was
talking to tb^. men. She described
the visions of~fche wedding day, with
its^lainoir brightness, and then
''AftAfc^tfcaMtday of all comes the

luxuries both desire. So she builds i
her oastles in the air. God help her i
if, ail they often do, the airy, fairy

very, eyes and sorrow comes to sit i
uw their nnas and croon over her <
aalshed hopes. For the first few <
years thele are gay little visits home s
and to "girlhood friends, there are I
guests to entertain now and then, j
Sabbaths are always a pleasure?they i

each other's society?and church-going i

it is bo easy to forget how others live, I
Mod they slowly drop into a rut or I

mo ntany of us ? Have we not lived i

mKgnpxing for things beyond it? Is j
that this< History of a clay j
qn fh&dark side of farm life tells the (
wnoi^ robnotonous routine of exist- <
tence?^-' j <
"At the first gjay streak of dawn 1

ioud^rjffe does ik on purpose to j
;?*%> her from her beauty sleep, 1
and always successful. She has 1
obeyed the summons so ofteu that it I
has btocune second nature, aud before 1
she rMBzes it she is out of the warm 1
blankets, noiselessly trembling into 1
her clothes, lest she awake the sleep- <
ing baby; half clad, her cold fingers
still fidgeting witn her brooch, sbe i
scampers to the kitchen. Once there
a nervous fear that breakfast may be I
late seizes her, and she rushes about J
uutil it is on the table and the family
seated, when she draws her first long
breath while the blessing is being ask- ;
ed. The breakfast bolted in hot haste
and the men oil'to work, she resumes
her hurry, skurries through the dishwashing
and kitchen work, hastens
through bed-making and house cleaning,
skims over milk vessels, refrigerators
and churning, hurries to the garden
for vegetables, rushes through
dinner, makes her fingers fiy on the
afternoon sewing and scouring, so she
may worry through supper at the
proper hour, to sink exhausted into
a chair at bed time, too weary to speak
or think.
"She has not only done the thousand
aud one duties that fell to her lot
that day, but she has done them we.l,
has slighted nothing, aud before falling
asleep has thought in utter weariness."
'Oh, if tomorrow might never
come !' But it does come, and it is
always just the same tomorrow, the
same unceasing routine of labor and
rush. Day after day, year after year,
nothing but toil, toil, hurry, worry,
rush ; that is the strange thing about
it?the eternal rush. Amid the peace
aud quiet of the country, why not go
on peacefully and quietly doing one's
duty as it comes ? There is but one
solution to the problem, and that is
her work exceeds her time, aud 6he is
constantly trying to establish some
sort of equilibrium. What does the
Uorriin oviutn?w?o i o rl in rohi rn
for all her ettbrts? Not happiness ;
oue look in the face of the farm womau
of the dark side tells 110. Not
money; certainly ^ot. Though she
is the hardest worker ou the place,
this farmer's wife has no bank account
of her owii. I will tell you what she
gets?her 'vittles and clothes;' that
is all, though iu nearly every case her
husbaud is well able to grant her reasonable
wishes, and the poor creature
never has unreasonable ones.
"But, thank heaven, all farmers'
wives do not live like this ; there is a
bright tide to this, as to all pictures.
Life on a farm ought to be to a woman
the happiest, most care-free of existences.
What with poultry and bees,
with llowers and vegetables, she gets
outdoor exercise sufficient to keep her
young a long time, and her labors are
all health-giving and pleasant. Labor
is a necessity and a part of every useful,
happy life. Woman should share
man's toil and hardships iu the same
proportion in which she shares his

joy and ease, and she usually does it
cheerfully. Ou a farm it has been a
woman's share of the duties to do the
housework and rear the children ever
since Eve gathered fig leaves for
clothes and ruised Cain in the Garden
of Eden. Certainly work must be
done, but let it be done cheerily apd
bravely, do not make life a drudgery.
"Iu contrast to the farm slave as we
havejust seen her, let us have the
fiirm iniHtrpftM. the nneen nf t.ha hpant.i
fill realm called home, one whom the
Maker, God, may look upoo, as He
did at the first, and say, 'It Is very
good.' Let us learn to have our farmhouses
homes, where comfort and
good cheer abound, where labor is
evenly distributed to all and made a
burden to none, where there are bookB
aud magazines, where time is had
lor reading, music, prayer and all
proper effort for higher, better things
i>f life, so that we may grow morally
and intellectually as well as physically.
These things attained, and the
much-vexed question of how to keep
the boys on the farm will be answered
once for all."
Another paper was by Mrs. Arthur
Grabowskii before the Richmond
County Agricultural Society at Augusta,
Ga., who said :
"The bride, wooed with the ardor of
youthful affection, too often becomes
the household drudge, the higher
servant, bearing most of the burdens
rf the domestic economy and sharing
scantily in the results of the farm's
business. A pathetic little incident
illustrating this came lately to my
notice through the medium of one of
our city papers. The editor, present
it a bank on business, saw a farmer
coming in, his hands full of the bills
paid to him for part of the year's cot
ton crop just sold. .tie was accompanied
by the patient wife, the result of
whose faithful domestic labor was
part of the money in . the farmer's
aand. Dressed in her best?and yet
How shabbily !?with a little one clingng
to her, much in need of proper
jlothing, the wife wistfully looked at
:he money being depoisted, and finally
touched the farmer's arm and plead
for a small share of that deposit. The
farmer's brow clouded at such unlookid-for
appeal, but being in good spirits
liter the successful sale of his crop, be
recognized the occasion as meriting
generosity, and, reaching into his
pocket for a well-filled purse, he fished
out from it the magnificent coin of
jne-half dollar, and giving it to his
wife, told her go and buy what she
wauted.
"Ob, yes! The same scornful expression
I see on your brows came
jver that woman's face, and, if I
remember right, the editor said he
heard her murmur, 'God pity your
small soul.' But is such an incident
an isolated one? Is it an exception to
the rule, or ia it not a fact that only in
degree, but not in substance, tne treatment
of the wife by the husband is
is often that of the brute the editor
wrote about? Not on the farm alone,
but in the homes of the city do men
forget that the 'obedience' woman
promises at the altar must be preceded
by the 'honor and love' also promised,
and how can love survive when it is
met by indifference, aud how houor
when meaness stamps the object to be
houored? If there ia any pursuit of
life where man and woman, become
oue by the sacred rite of matrimony,
should be co-workers, co-equals, it is
on tbe farm. Of necessity the conditions
of city life are here concentrated,
and the 'multum in parvo' is the device
of the farmer's surroundings.
How often could the device of city
life be 'Parvum in multo,' 'little in
much'?little comfort, little satisfaction,
though surrounded by the multitudinous
appliances of the congregated
life of a community; how universal
should the farmer's device be, 'Multum
in parvo,' 'much in little,' when
applied to the resources of the individual
life of the farm. It is by justly
appreciating, rightly fostering the
possibilities of that family life amidst
the surroundings of God's nature that
the farmer can become thj envied ol
ills uruiuer iuwu?uiuu.
"By the natural fitness of things the
work of the farm has divided itself into
the outside larger operations and
the work pertaining to the homestead
and its immediate surroundings of the
dairy, the poultry-yard, the garden,
etc. The former have fallen to the
share of man, the latter to the share
of woman. Is it not often a fact that
nearly the whole proceeds of both divisions
of the farm go into tbe field
operations, attempting to make possible
a five-cent cotton crop or an equally
unremunerative crop, whilBt the
dairy, the poultry-yard, the garden
suffer the fate of every quantity that
has to yield a periodical percentage of
reduction, ana has no equivalent or
greater percentage of increase? It is
only a question of time when the exhausted
dairy, empty poultry-yard
and neglected garden will be sad illua
trations or larming done wit bout a
just proportioning of the farm's resources
to the farm's productive industries.
Is it the true position of
the farmer's wife to be the head of a
part of farm work that ia to contribute
to the farm's assets, but is to receive
no, help, no working capital from Jthe
same ?
"If there is truth in what I have
heard those say, better Informed than
I, and which meets me as an old
chestnut in the papers of the Bouth,

production of everything the smaller
industries are capable of adding is
needed for successful Southern farming,
then there should be placed for
the use of the head of those industries,
for the use of the wife, propionate
amounts of the proceeds of th.e farm
to carry on her work satisfactorily.
The same line of argument would
point out the good effect a more jost
apportionment of the money earned
on the farm to the domestic economy
would have. Most men provide according
to their means pretty fairly
when they are to sit down at thetable,
and thegastric region is a tender spot
with mgQ, but are they as careful that
wife and children should share equ&ly
in all the providing on table, housing,
clothing? And are they willing to
turn over to wife and children for the
gratification of the ideas of luxury of
these a duplicate amount of money
spent on tobacco treating and liquor ?
I, of course, do not know that any
money ever goes out of the men's
pockets for liquor, but traversing, as
I do, on my alternoon rides many of
the roads of Richmond countv. .1 have
noticed that it is fortunate that many
of the mules of the farmers seem to
know the way hope by themselves,
as their masters ajfeasleep in the wagon,
and I flfrlljPElnk that ail the
jugs I se&flPflBVagons are carrying
vinegar iGpfplacm.
"But is there not yet another line
in which the work of the farm, es{>ecially
in dharge of woman, needs
improvement and in which she does
not yet fill her true position ?
"Take from life all sunshine, all
color, all perfume, all that is esthetic,
and life would be its own empty
similacrum. Take from the life of the
farm all that can elevate it to an esthetic
standpoint, and it would be a hard
existence under very gloomv realities.
Every flower that clings to the porch,
every bird that find* a home under the
eaves of the house, every tree that is
cherished in the yard, every nail that
is driven into its proper place that
beeps fence and house complete, every
bucket of lime or pot of paint that
keeps the premises pleasant to the eye,
every little curtain, obeap but clean,
that hangs behind the well-washed
window, every picture, c^romo
though it be, that hangs unspecked
(by flies, mind you !) from the walls
?every one of a hundred little things
that yet together make the domestic
life of the farm. Oh, how would our
Southern farms improve if the Southern
womon would but know that a
part of their true position on the farm
is to make farm life beautiful! Can
the re, then be a question that the true
po& tion of woman on the farm is yet
among the problems of the future?
When the farm progresses to the position
of a well-oraered business, having
its debit and credit account with each
of its fields and industries; when its
capital is fairly apportioned to the different
branches of work, and its receipts
are correspondingly divided ;
when the farmer admits the wife as his
business partner, entitled to her just
share of the profits of the farm, and
when he remembers that 'woman won'
does not necessarily mean that neglect
and indifference are as acceptable (o
the wife as ardor and attention were to
the sweetneart?when the woman 011
the farm realizes that upon her depend
not only the cooking, the care
of the children and other domestic
duties, but that everything that makes
life ou the farm pleasant as far as neatness,
taste and embellishment can
make it are her especial charge, and
that she also must remember in the
bard-working, ageing husband, the
lover of her youth, then, and only
then, will woman's true position on
the farm be reached, and the Garden
of Eden will find again a place on the
earth; a rural life will become the
envy of those bred and dwelling in
the confinements of city life."
"How to Nttnage a Wife."
The above was the subject of the
following prize essay obtained by the
late Dr. 0. F. Deems, of New York :
Manage? What is that? Does it
mean to control ? We manage a horse.
We use our superior human intellect to
to control and guide his superior physican
strength so as to obtain the best
results. But a wife is not a horse.
When two persons are well married
the wife is as superior to the husband
in many respects as he is superior to
her in others, if hapyiness is tobe the
result of the union, the first business of
the husband is to manage himself so as
to keep himself always his wife's respectable
friend, always her tender
lover, always her equal partner, alurnvu
her Hiinerior Drotector. This will
necessarily stimulate the wife to be
hi? admiring friend, always his affectionate
sweetheart, always his confiding
ward. And this will so react upon the
husband that his love for his wife will
grow so as to make it easy for him, with
all his faults, to bear with all the infirmities
of his one and only wife."
:
It Is very interesting to watch thi
fermentation of a great truth when it
is once fairly lodged in the mind of an
honest man.
No matter how hard and cheerlesi
your fate may be, there is nothing t<
be gained by becoming morose or raelan
elioly.
