BST Eli Perkins says: Tact is the right
thing at the right time. When a young
collegiate stepped on a young lady's foot in
a Harvard street car the beautiful girl was
offended, but when that collegiate bowed
sweetly and said modestly:
"Beg ten thousand pardons, Miss; your
foot is so small I could'nt see it!" Why,
she could have kissed ?him.
How different was it with Reuben Bradshaw,
who had never been off of the old
Litchfield farm. One day he met an old
fiazne, Lucy Bradbury, in Hartford. He
had not seen her 15 years.
"Well," said Reuben, taking Lucy warmly
by the hand, "you are still Lucy Bradbury,
are you ?"
"Yes." she replied, "still Lucy Bradbury."
"It isn't your fault, I know," he rejoined,
meaning to say something complimentary.

She Tied Her Dog.?In a parlor-car on
an eastern train sat a richly dressed young
woman, tenderly holding a very small poodle.
"Madam," said the conductor, as he punch:
ed her ticket, "I am very sorry, but you cannot
have your dog in this car. It's against
the rules."
"I shall hold him in my lap all the way,"
she replied, "and he will disturb no one."
"That makes no difference," said the conductor
; "I couldn't allow my own dog here
Dogs must ride in the baggage car. I'll
fasten him all right for you?
"Don't vou touch my dog, sir," said the
young woman, excitedly; "I will trust him
to no one I" and. with indignant tread she
marched to the baggage car, tied her dog,
and returned.
About fifty miles further on, when the
conductor came along again, she asked him ;
"Will you tell me if my dog is all right ?'
"I am very sorry," said the conductor
politely, "but you tied him to a trunk, and
he was thrown off with it at the last station."

A Drummer's Story.?This is the story
the drummer tells: A hotel-keeper with a
devoted wife, once bethought himself that
he ought to do something out of the ordinary
in recognition of her usefulness. Said
he to himself, "Sarah has been a good wife tc
me. She is bard working and faithful, and
I owe a goodly portion of my fortune to hei
careful management. I feel that I want tc
please her. I shall do something handsome
for her this time. See if I don't."
When he returned, "Sarah," said he,
beamingly, "I thought I'd do something tc
please you. You are a deserving wife and
have been so good and patient that I wanted
to express my appreciation. So I've gone
to the expense of buying me a new hat,
Aren't you pleased with my appearance
in it?"
"But the story drops there, and Sarah's
sentiments will never be known. This hotel
man must certainly have lived "Long

intended to tell Jane to bring a
fresh bucket of water," said the wife oi
Professor Nottlehead, looking up from her
sewing, "You doubtless mean a bucket oi
r fresh water," rejoined the husband. I wish
you would pay some little attention to
rhetoric; your mistakes are embarrassing."
Some months later the professor said: "My
dear, that picture would look to advantage
if you were to hang it over the clock."
"Ah!" she replied; "you doubtles mean if I
were to hang it above the clock. If I were
to hang it over the clock we couldn't tell
what time it is. I wish you would pay some
attention to rhetoric; your mistakes are embarrassing."
Practice What You Preach.?The
Michigan Advocate tells of a prominent
?*?minister, who, when invited to a colored
congregation, took occasion to give them
some good wholesome doctrine on the moralties
of life. In the closing prayer the colored
preacher got even with him in the following
fashion : "O Lord, bless the brother
that preached to us tonight. He's brought
us the gospel about good livin'. He's done
told us we mus't quit lyin, and quit stealin'
and quit gettin' drunk ; and he's told us we
must pay our debts, and keep our word

strength to pactice what he preaches."
ttf' A bell-boy at the Great Northern,
says the Chicago Mail, does not believe in
goi^g beyond his literal instructions. A
^>w^/guestT*ushed to the cashier's desk. He had
^ ju8t tefi minutes in which to pay his bill,
reach fhe depot and board his train. "Great
Scott P' he exclaimed: "I've forgotten
something. Here, boy, run to my room, B
48, and see if I have left my toothbrush and
sponge, Hurry! I've only five minutes
now !" The boy hurried. He returned in
four minutes out of breath. "Yes, sir," he
panted ; you left them there."
Had Him There.?A rather seedy-looking
individual, one of the large army who
live on their wits, was working the smaller
towns of the Fort Worth and Denver city
railways as a phrenologist, and was waiting
at the depot for his train to come. He was
walking up and down the platform with hia
plaster-cast bead in a bag under his arm. A
young farmer who had been making fun of
him said, sotto voce, "I don't have to make
my living by carrying a plaster head under
my arm." "No," replied the seedy phrenologist
; "you carry your plaster head on your
shoulders."
18^ One of tersest and best of the election
stories is related by Chairman Carter, of the
Republican National committee. "It was
getting late in the evening of election day,"
he said, "and we were anxious to hear something
definite from the most important districts
of Indiana. I telegraphed over my
signature to the leader of the district: 'I
have no news from you. Send me an hundred
lines or so on the actual state of affairs.'
In about an hour I got his reply. It read:
'We have all gone tp h?1 out here, and it
don't take any hundred lines to tell it,
either.'"
t6T A man of 60, who had long made a
r practice of changing.his doctors on the
slighest provocation, not long ago called in
a young physician who had gained a considerable
reputation. He was telling this doctor
what he thought was the trouble with
him, when the doctor ventured to disagree
with his diagnosis. "I beg your pardon said
the patient, in a haughty way, "it isn't for a
young physician like you to disagree with an
old experienced invalid like me ?" And he
went out to seek another physician.
JSF* "Pray, sir, of what profession are
you ?" said Mr. Edwin James to a witness,
who had come to prove a fact, and who was
not deemed a very reputable gentleman.
"Sir, I am a shoemaker and wine merchant."
"A wjp>*, sir?" said the learned Queen's
cgpefol. "A wine merchant and shoe^maker."
It is unusual in England to com-?bine
two such trades. "Then," said Mr.
James, "I may describe you as a sherry cobbler
!"
Ex-Governor Taylor, of Tennessee, has
a new joke. It runs like this: Pat was
about to die. The priest had been called
and had administered the last services.
Then he said : "Pat is there anything else
you desire?" "Yes," said Pat. "I want to
be buried in a Third party graveyard."
"Why, Pat," said the priest, "why is that ?"
"Well, your riverence," says Pat, "a Third
party graveyard is the last place the divil
would Jook for a Democrat."
' about ten minutes, ne stoppea una soner
turned his head around slow like to see if
: the bag was still there. It was. Then he
' started again, and of all the running I ever
' saw that squirrel did it. He moved about
among the branches like a streak of lightning.
Finally out of breath, he stopped
again and the expression he wore on his
face seemed to indicate that he was saying
to himself "well, whatever you are you
are not in it now. I guess I've got you."
But when he turned his head around and
! saw that the bag and string were right there,
he fainted dead away."
The Rod and the Child.?"Spare the
. rod and spoil the child, is the best idea, I
you," said Judge Thomas to a New York
' Sun man. Don't talk to me about persuading
and reasoning with children. The
( only thing is implicit obedience, and the
. sooner you exact it, the better for yqu and the
child too. Punish without temper, though.
Never show your anger to your child. That's
' the trouble with most parents. They get
i into a passion themselves when they whip,
; and the child is quick to notice it, and soon
begins to resent it, and cherish it as a wrong.
1 Do your whipping more in sorrow than
? anger. Unless you can do it in this way '
1 you had better not try it at all. The worst
whippings I ever got in my life were by
i my mother, who did it with tears in her
i eyes at my suffering, and a prayer after it >
which took all the resentment out my heart 1
, and made me feel that she was the greater
i sufferer. Oh! this latter day idea of not
i whipping children in the supremest rot, and i
is doing great harm. If whipping can be ;
i avoided, all right; but if nothing else will i
, do, lay it on with slipper or switch. The i
i thing is to make them mind. Begin the 1
business early in life too, for the longer it is
i put off the harder the task will become. '
What does a child know about the reason of '
; things? Why attempt to reason with a j
little thing which is simply a bundle of no- '
tions, appetites and impulses, which must, 1
, for its own good, be restrained and directed ? '
f Obedience is the prime education. I tell <
you more than three-fourths of all the ugly i
f lawlessness and crime which now afflicts this
country comes from a lack of control in the 1
i family circle. The disobedient, self-willed, <
indulged child is sure to give unhappiness 1
and trouble to his parents, and, after leaving i
i them, to violate the laws of this country.
No respect for authority in a family circle
means no respect for the governing powers
, of the State. This is all just as true as
preaching."

Some Timely Words.?Compared with
pneumonia, the cholera is not a very great
source of danger, writes an old physician. '
, It is safe to say that more than a hundred peo,
pie die of the former where one dies of the 1
latter, the world over. To have the cholera, 1
you must eat or drink something containing
a cholera seed. The disease must be regu- j
larly planted in you. Eat' hot food, boil '
your drinking water, disinfect the rooms you 1
live in, and the cholera can't hurt you.
, More than this, if your stomach is in a heal- 1
thy condition, not one cholera germ in a (
million when taken into it will sprout and !
i grow. |
Everybody seems to be shouting about the :
cholera, when the danger of death from a \
severe cold is a hundred fold greater. To
take pneumonia you have only to get into a
violent state of perspiration, and then sit for
ten minutes in a draft. A man runs, or digs,
gets hot, and sits down to rest. Up he
jumps and raises a window. And then a 1
cool breeze just kills him. Very likely he is
fool enough to sit with his back to a window 1
partially raised. 1
| It makes one tired think how history repeats
itself in the matter of fool killing. 1
( There was Judge , of New York, a man \
of large intelligence. Ore night last De,
cember he played billiards at his club until
he was in a profuse state of perspiration, '
walked three blocks to his home in the 1
teeth of the wind, and died in four days. 1
There are thousands of just such cases every
, year. '
Now then, stop fretting over the cholera I
for a little while, and try to cultivate whole- ]
some dread of cold. Any cold can be cured, '
even one whose tendency is to pneumonia, (
if taken in time. Begin to fight it early.
? Don't give it more than six to twelve hours
headway. Put on an overcoat. Kindle up 1
a big fire. Goto bed. Remember! A cold
is more to be feared than cholera !

A Terrible Death Punishment.?In
England, during the reign of Henry VIII 1
the public mind became greatly excited
through several cases of poisoning, and parliament
enacted a law making boiling to ;
death the penalty. This law was on the '
statue books about sixteen years. It was
A ? ^ in n no cn '
maue retroactive, au ua iu tun.*; m ? .
that chiefly prompted its enactment?that ,
of Richard Rosse, otherwise Coke, the J
Bishop of Rochester's cook, who jfoisoued .,
seventeen persons, two of whom died.
Coke was boiled at Rochester. The infliction
was attended with peculiar cruelty, as j
Coke was put into a cauldron of cold water
and gradually cooked to death. !
A few years later, in March, 1542, a young '
woman named Margaret Davy was punished
in a similar way on conviction of poisoning.
The public were not satisfied as to 1
her guilt, and, notwithstanding the compar- '
atively slow travel of news in those days,I1
the story of Margaret Davy's trial andI
punishment soon spread through the king-:
dom and aroused uuiversal horror. Boiling
to death remained on the statute books, ,
however, as long as Henry reigned, perhaps
because the monarch himself had a
dread of being poisoned. Immediately af- j
ter his death parliament repealed the law.? !

GOLD DUST COTTON. S
From the Southern Cultivator. Bi
Believing it is our duty to let the light g
there may be on us shine, I wish to avail w
myself of the columns of The Cultivator, the ^
best Southern agricultural paper, in delivering
to my brother farmers what I believe to
be a valuable message.
Planters are all more or less familiar with ca
the improved varieties of cotton that have ?
been long in general use. The Peterkin, ^
the Welborn's Pet, the Herlong, etc., have X
been tried in nearly every community and efl
have gained more or less popularity. One X
of the latest claimants in this section is "the pc
"Gold Dust." And I firmly believe that it j
works an advance over all other varieties as he
great, if not greater, than has ever been g
made at one bound by any cotton. I believe on
that it is the best cotton ever planted. j
Only one year ago my attention was first jg
called to this cotton in such a way as to induce
me to investigate it. Having seen a .fl
letter from the manager of the South Carolina
experiment station ut Columbia, in X
which he gave his experience with this cot- e(^
ton, I wrote him. He replied very fully, de- X
scribing his experiment and conclusions and fe
advising me, if able to do so, to buy seed for g
my whole crop. He said that it was "by far sa
the best cotton he had ever seen." On one- tr
half acre only half manured, he made a good g
bale. This and all his other varieties came yC
up late in June, and the Gold Dust had, when (j]
the frost come October 8th, matured every ?
boll; while the other varieties were caught ^
with about one-half their crop unmade.
I further found that every man that had
ever tried the Gold Dust, had for it only .
praise of the highest kind. So, though I ^lI
had never seen a stalk of it, nor a man who 8
had, I decided to buy enough seed to plant ?
my whole crop. "A rash venture," do you ba
say ? I reasoned that if it was only half as mi
good as its friends said, I would make twice 1
as much as I had ever done with the Peter- so
kin or the Pet,..and would doubtless find pi
ready sale for my seed at a good price. To j
secure the best, I bought seed two and three sp
years old, planted separate from any other sp
cotton. I
When my cotton began to put on forms, it re
attracted attention. Neighbors from far and be
near came to see it, and every one said that |
he had never seen anything like it. The j
limbs came out right at the ground, grew
quite long and averaged at least one for every
inch of height of stalk. The forms were ve- *
ry closely crowded on every limb and all the er
way from stalk to end of limb. Stalks three ar
feet high with 200 to 300 forms were com- '
mou enough. as
When the bolls began to near maturity, "a
every one was struck with their great size. B
Mr. Gaillard compared it in this respect ur
with his other varieties, and found that ra
while the others took about 100 bolls to make g
a pound, 100 bolls of Gold Dust gave the a
unprecedented yield of one pound ten ounces, th
How about the yield of lint? The seed g
are larce and the lint not longer than usual, ftv
O " " w
so one would hardly expect an unusual an
yield. From thirty-five to forty per cent, is
about what is claimed for it; yet I see from *
all quarters much better returns than that. P
One report gives forty-four.
The fine body and longness of lint is ano- cu
ther valuable feature. I sold it to the most 8
experienced buyer in Sumter, one of the best *?
judges in this State, and he said that it had
the best body he had ever seen on any cotton.
All I have sold has brought the top of 8
the market. The Gold Dust will make a in
crop in three or four weeks less time than au
any other I know anything about. sti
These, then, are the points in which the jg
Gold Dust has proved its superiority to all Ha
others: Quickness of growth ; sureness of "0
crop ; earliness ; number and length of limb; an
number and size of bolls; ease in picking; jj
turn out at the gin; fineness and tough- W(
ness of lint; ability to stand bad weather ; do
large yield per acre. ej,

a Pttp Goon Coffee.?Of course no ^1C
well-regulated house-wife buys the supply of
family coffee in the state which is known as
"ground." Ground coffee may sometimes *
be necessary in the exigencies of chance and Pe
change, but it is a solecism, and is to be tol- ce
erated only when it cannot be helped. Su
For a really good cup of coffee buy the ber- 8
ries whole and see that they are properly
browned. It is better to buy them in the tw
roasted state, because the green berries, if R'
kept long in stock, lose their strength. When sc'
the coffee is be made grind just enough for I
one pot of coffee. Usually a small table- ?a:
spoonful is a fair allowance for each coffee wi
cup of the beverage. Put the ground coffee
in a bowl and set it upon the back of the yo
stove, where it will get very hot without f
burning. Pour the necessury amount of hot th
water in the coffee pot and set it on the stove no
until it actually bubbles. do
While the water is actually dancing with tu
the heat and the steam is pouring out of the j
coffee pot stir in the coffee, which by this g0
time has become very hot on the back of the 0f
3tove. Cover closely and let simmer ten m(
minutes. jn
The whole process is very simple and requires
no more time than in making it in *
any other way. The virtue lies in knowing lV1
how.
The old-fashioned way of boiling coffee J.01
twenty minutes makes coffee which has been
ground black and unpleasant alike to sight 8
and taste. There are patent coffee-pots ex
which have special ways of preparing the au
coffee by filtering. Many of these are very
good, and all of them are labor-saving. But (ir
there is none whose results will be found to j #
be any better than that of the process just i M
described for making a model cup of coffee. | is,
Paragraphs About Hogs.?If our south-1 th

to eat less pork and to make what they do | f

at home, it would be better for us all. Let | br

Df to-day will be fraught with the best ofj\y<

One of the strangest conditions ever known g
in the hog market is seen in the fact that ex
Southern hogs are now being shipped North f01
for slaughter. The packers of Cincinnati te]
have bought every bog that could be easily m.
found on the markets in Tennessee. This j jJa

AYER'S
Cherry Pectoral
Has no equal for the prompt relief
and speedy cure of Colds, Coughs,
Croup, Hoarseness, Loss of Voice,
Preacher's Sore Throat, Asthma,
Bronchitis, La Grippe, and other
derangements of the throat and
lungs. The best-known cough-cure
in the world, it is recommended by
eminent physicians, and is the favorite
preparation with singers, actors,
preacners, ana leacners. it soomes
the inflamed membrane, loosens the
phlegm, stops coughing, and induces
repose.
AYER'S
Cherry Pectoral
taken for consumption, in its early
stages, checks further progress'of
the disease, and even in the later
stages, it eases the distressing
cough and promotes refreshing
sleep. It is agreeable to the taste,
needs but small doses, and does not
interfere with digestion or any of
the regular organic functions. As an
emergency medicine, every household
should be provided with Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral.
"Having used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
in my family for many years, I
can confidently recommend it for all
the complaints it is claimed to cure.
Its sale is increasing yearly with me,
and my customers think this preparation
has no equal as a cough-cure."

YOU CAN SAVE
FROM $20.00 TO $35.00.
DURING the past two years we have sold
more than one hundred sowing machines.
To the best of our knowledge and belief every one
of these machines are giving satisfaction. The
person who buys a machine from us does not
have to pay for the services and expenses of a
manager of agencies, general agents, traveling
salesmen, office rent, clerk hire, etc., but gets a
machine just as good in every particular as those
sold through agents, shipped direct from the
factory to the purchaser at a price that leaves all
of the extra expenses off. Every machine we
sell is guaranteed for five years, and if it is not satisfactory
after TWENTY days' trial, it can he returned
to the manufacturers and they will pay
the freight both ways, and every cent paid, including
postage, will be refunded. If you want
to save from $20 to $.15 you should buy your
machine, if you need one, from Thk Enquirer.
We sell four different styles. We could print
two columns or more of testimonials from those
who have bought machines of us, but the following
will show what our friends think of our
"cheap" machines:

Mr. L. M. Grist, Yorkville, S. C: Dear Sir?
The Sewing Machine ordered from you arrived
an New Year's Day, and we are entirely pleased
with it. It is everything that is claimed for it.
The Enquirer arrives promptly every week
and its visits are heartily enjoyed.

from the best writers; every week a column
of fun and humor; carefully selected and seasonable
articles intended for the benefit of the farmer

Qr An old gentleman, after the funeral of
& relative, was listening to the reading of
the will, in which he unexpectedly proved
to be interested. First it recounted how
that a certaiu field was willed to him ; then
it went on to give the old gray mare in said
field to some one else, with whom he was
on anything but friendly terms, at which
point he suddenly interruptrd the proceedings
by exclaiming, indignantly, "Then
she's eatin my grass!"

A SQUIRREL'S CHASE WITH A BAG.
' "In Memphis," said Charles F. Elmire, of
1 Union City, Tenn., "there is a little park
called Court Square, situated in the center
of the city. The parkkeeper told me that
there were over 500 squirrels that made their
, nests in the big shady trees. They afford
boundless amusement to the children and to
the weary foot travelers who stop in the
park to rest. One day last week I bought a
bag of peanuts, and while I sat down on one
! of the seats eating them, the squirrels gathered
around me like blackbirds would flock to (
a cornfield immediately after planting time. ,
1 I concluded to try an experiment. I blew
up the paper bag, tied a string around it
about six inches long and to the other end '
1 fastened a 'goober' and threw it on the
ground. There was an old bobtailed squir'
rel?the father of the flock?that tackled it. ,
! He picked up the 'goober' between his paws (
1 and started to open the shell when he dis'
covered that there was a string tied to it.
1 Then he began to run, still holding the nut
1 between his teeth. He jumped off about fifty
1 feet and turned his head around to see if ,
the bag and string were still behind. They '
' were. Well, sir, you should have witnessed
the actions of that squirrel after he saw that
the bag still pursued him. Up a tree he
1 went; down one side and up another, the
> way he went. After he had chased himself
