JURED OF GAMBLING.
IDDLY, TOO, THE REMEDY ENTAILED
CONSTANT GAMBLING.
* Irhcar ky Which a Pair of Coalnik<4
To??k (iBMfiitfri rrnird.Yfl
Did So? Cease, aad Kveataalljr Ac?alred
Wealth.
Thin ia the Mory of tiro confirmed
ouoff gamblera who *eenied beyond redemption,
but who struck a K.rstrm
rhereby they continued and yet ceased
ambling and CTentually acquired wealth.
They were pair of younc southerner*
rom the name town and friend* almost
rom babyhood. Therefore what one did
be other wns almost sure to do. Tbey
iade up their minds that they needed to
o out and nee the world and be bappy
nd that it was not the proper thing to
re on their fathers. They caoie to New
"ork to make their owu way and to ace
hinics and in order to see them better
ecame newspaper reporter*. Then they
aw thing* good and bad and indifferent
nd among them were introduced to a
bing named "wheel."
Unfortunately in the firftt attempt one
f them won $300 and the other $200,
nd thereafter they domted their young
itch and hundred* of dollara trying to
epcat the run.
When the "wheel" proved faithless,
hey went to horse racing, which ia more
angeroua because it includes not mere
nek, bnt an element of personal vanity
bout one's knowledge of Sunshine and
Ipindrift and weights up and bard and
oft tracks. Poker snd tbe other diTcrions
were added to the list until the
pirit of gambling entered their daily
ires, and they gambled with each other
nd threw dice to see who would pay the
reek's board and matched each other to
ee who paid for breakfaxtx.
Things went on splendid)/ nntil on pay
ays It was simply a matter of an hour
o ran from the office to a "joint" or a
oolroom and to return dead broke ready
ad cheerful for another day's work,
rhey owed money, restaurant bills and
aoney borrowed outright, which they
toped to pay some day when they made
> big strike. Meanwhile they made little
trikes, enough to lead them on. In time
hey got to the point when their face* no
snyer showed whether they had lost or
ron. Therefore they were "full fledged
porta."' Therefore, also, hard lines were
iggiug into their faces ubout their
souths and eyes, and if their families
lown in the land of sunshine could hare
* " arm in arm tin Park
ow there would have been tears or retuffs,
according to sex.
An both of the young men bad the same
irst Christian names it is necessary to
all one of them Bill and the other
Silly. Bill and Billy were in for a crisis.
Hie summer and the greater part of t uumn
had gone when it dawned on them
hatpin the name of decency, if not in the
tame of comfort, It was about time to
>uy overcoats. They had spent nights
hivering on assignments for the want of
t proper coTering. but on pay days it
eemed folly to invest money in clothing
rhen there ?as a fortune to be mad* by
he turn of a wheel. As both men were
iretty good in their line of business they
oade enough each week to buy three or
our new overcoats if they bad been able
o let the wheel alone. They realized this
?w"Ib* and li?ft the office together
rith their salaries in their pockets, bound
or a tailor's shop, and they retained two
lours later withoat a cent or an overcoat
tnd with watches cone.
As they were came to the core they sat
town in their Bests in the office at desks
icing each other and like true * ports beran
to write the stories of their assignnenta
ss if nothing had happened. Presently,
withoat stopping his writing, Bill
emarked:
"Billy, you're a fool."
"Just what I was thinking of yon,"
Silly returned, likewise disdaining to halt
n his work.
"Guess we're both it," Bill said as before.
"Maybe, but I know you are," said
1111*. and then for the first time both
?ut down tbeir pencils.
"I'll tell you, I'll match yon to see who
i the biggest foul; that's about all I'vs
Cot left," said Bill
"That's all right; I'll bet yon a fiver li
[ wanted to I could save more money In
i month than you could at that," th?
>tb?- said.
"?.. go you on that. It's fire up that
it the end of tb'e month I nhow a fattei
>ank account than you do."
And that is all that was said until al
be end of the month Bill produced a
>ankbook with $80 in it and Billy on<
rith $120 credited to bim. Therefort
Bill paid Billy the $5 and said:
"IH go you acain on that"
"All right; make it every month if yoi
Jke."
"Suits me, my son," said Billy, "but,
ook here, sport is sport. I don't think I
>ucht to hare taken that fiver. I borrowed
$50 from the governor to add t?
;he account and swsmp you. That ieavei
W which 1 (rally saved against youi
F80, so here is your $5 back and $5 mon
irhich I owe."

Is this thing meant only for legitimatf
taring?"
"So I supposed."
"Then here is the 910 hack. Ton see 1
iras behind and only had $40 in bank. 1
lad everything to gain and nothing tc
lose, I figured, so I drew the $40 and
played Earners Ida, e?en money, and
banked the $80."
"Then we will call the thing off foi
this month, but hereafter it will be l
month that I show a fatter accouat thai
jrou do, and no more funny business
about it."
Neither Bill nor Billy knew what bi
Nras doing that day. or he would not
kar^ done It. but the excitement of th<

would get the next fiver If be bad to d<

Some day a pair of fine girls will gel
bold of Bill sad Billy and will put on th?
finishing touches of civilization, and
thereafter they will confine themselves tt

ambitious leuaoia uave left tbe farms and
guoetotbe mills. Id my Judgment tbal Is
ibe eecrat Influence wblcb baa caused advene
legislation lu be preeaed year alter year
against ibe mllla and ibe employe* in tbem.
Any (alrmlnded mau moat aay tbat ancb a

before ibelr eeubllabtuenl.
Aalde from ibe Increased va'ueof tbe lands
and general prosperity, statistics sbuw ibal
tbe oollon crop is larger every year, bo lb in

iarnio, or could not make a dollar cJtar, cau.
not ouly make a living at tbe mllla, but cau
earn enough to lay ualde aomeiblug e*?sry
year.
Let uk compare the condition nf a family ou
a larm aud at the mill, where Ibey furulan
nothing out ibelr labor lo either cane. Huppoee
we have a farmer wbo work* hlniatsll
and bla two children large enough to b**|p

lor a bare living taken every dollar left,
ho be realty gets ootbiug at ibe end of ibe
year. Pul Ibieeamefamily In tbe mill; tbe
uian will set sixty-five ceuiaa day for every

twenty-four bales of cotton and 4U0 bushels of
corn.
Tuu takes simply Ibe earning capacity of a
family to set dollars and cents.
The advantages In other respects are eves
greater. In a sparsely settled couoliy yoo
bave to go irom one to ibree miles to cbareb
and Huuday school, aud do well If you have
two sermons a month. Yoor cblldieu must
trudge I rum one to three miles to a coon try
school, wblcb is bleak and bare and exceedingly
uncomfortable, only lasting three or
four month; whereas. In town, yoo have comfortable
boueee, cbnrcbes at your very doors
with preaching every Hnuday, and Huoday
school the year ronud, comfortable scboolhuu>M
with excellent teachers for len months
id the year.
If 700 are sick Id tba country yoo moul

la it to be wondered at tbat wblte people
wltb any ambition for tbelr children leave
ibe farms and come to tba mill? Tbe life
la preferable tc tbat oa a farm, and no
amooot of legislation or prejudice can make
tbem atay there. If mill belp can make

1 aud religious advantages tbau farmers, why
