FOX'"EUCHRE " MOTHERS A certaiu mother iu one of our small citips was very fond of play iug "progressive euchre'*. One ev ening Rhe received a fine Bilver-cup for being the moet successful play er in a group pf her society friends She was much delighted with her success, aud, on showing it to her family the next morning, her BOD, in his early ..teens," 6aid, "Hugh ! I can Ijeat that,for I made ten dol lars at the pool table last last night! " Immediately the eyes of the mother were opened in more senses than one, for, in the first place, she had no idea that her son had thus been spending his time, and iu the n^xt place, part ners in sin, bow could she con denan him ? It taught ber a les son once for all.-Presbyterian. We ask the mothers who may read the above to give it a serious study, lest they be a stumbling ?block to their own and their neighbors children, j by giving card parties for the ?enjoyment of the young peo ple and by offering prizes. It leads them from one game to another, and finally they are gamblers. Mothers, fathers, be careful that you do not set the example and pave the way for your children to become gamblers. The mother in the !casc above mentioned doubt less taught her son to play his first game of euchre. Par ents have great responsibilities resting upon them, and it is the home influence that is the most lasting. it is not the first game of cards that makes the gambler, but roany times the first game gives the player a desire to be an expert, and the next thing the mother sees an account of her son being arrested for gambling. Will it be your sqn, ? Yes, it may be if he plays euchre, for it is only a matter of time before he will tire of playing for the pleasure of it and will be play ing for stakes. A Sad JD>eatl? at the Institute. On Friday last Miss Jo3ic Wfiitlocfc. of Vaucluse, died at the institute of pneumonia. She had only reiurind from her home at Vaucluse about twu weeks since, having been, detained ut home on account uf illness during the holidays. Returning in this impover ished state of health, ?he became an easy prey to measles, which spo ?diI3 turned into pneumon?a, and proved fatal. ?tiss Whitlock, had thc best ol medical services ami the constant ut tendance of a trained norie, and was the recipient of every kind and tender sympathy which magnanimous Chris tian hearts know how Lo bsstnw. It is sad that one so young, "21 years of age, should be taken away, but it 13 one of the varied dispensations of a kind Providence,who seems scmetimes to give that he may take away. To Mr Whitlock, the brot her ol'the deceased, who is now a student at the Institute, and the bereaven parents and fiiends at Vaucluse, the Edgefield people ten der their sincerest sympathy.
