The Carolina Edition.
■ J * * ,
The Augusta Choniclc of Sunday,
September 19th contained sixteen
pages of choice reading matter, setting
forth in most attractive form tiie ad
vantages of Augusta as a trade centre
id the^ resources of the country on
>th sidps of the Savannah River,
rhich deal largely with tiiat prosper-
■‘'Us and substantial city. A large por-
n of this number Is devoted to Car-
na interests, and Aiken County is
•en a handsome place in the pic-
«. The Chronicle occupies a high
«e in the regard of our citi/.eiis, and
it is published just across
a river it partakes in many respects
all the interesting features of a
tatepapei. Every number contains
.iteresting letters from various por
ions of South Carolina, and at the
^Japital of the State it is represented
py tiiat accomplished correspondent
4nd amiable gentleman, Major Luther
jjp. Rausom, mhose letters art always
IVad with avidity in this section
The Carolina edition of the Chroni
cle is a splendid number and clearly
indicates that the HoTi. Patrick
Walsh, its whole souled and liberal
minded editor is determined to keep
Lis paper In the very front rank of
Journalism. The Chronicle deserves
Co*h ran for Congress.
The following from The News and
Courier is so well said that we will
endorse it as our own. Judge Cothran
has many admirers snd warm friends
jn Aiken County:
“The Hon. James 8. Cothran, of Ab
beville, who has been iiomminated
for congress from the Third Congress
ional District as tiie successor of Col.
D. Wyatt Aiken, is known to the
people of South Carolina as ono of the
uolest and purest public men in the
State. Judge Cothran is tlnuouglily
educated, is a polished writer, an el
oquent speaker, a thorough lawyer,
and ims proved himself an eminent
and impartial Judge.
In the war between the States he
fought with conspicuous gallantry,
and bears upon his person tiie maiks
i of wounds received on more than one
fought field. Throughout his
life lie has ever commanded the full
respect and confidence of his feilow-
eiti/.ens, who have never hesitated to
follow when and where he led. In
every position of honor and trust to
which helms been called. Judge Coth
ran has served the State with singu
lar devotion and success, and iu> put -
lie man in South Carolina, or in any
other State, lias a tinner hold upon
the admiration and kindly regard of
the people. A gentleman by instinct,
a Christian in profession ami practice,
his courteous manners and exemplary
eonbucl have made him a model for
the young men of South Carolina, who
have never hadset before them ahighcr
type of manhood or of all the qualities
that constitute a useful and honorable
citizen. In the new sphere of duty to
which he has been called, without so-
licition or elfort on his part, there is
no question tiiat he will serve the
people of the Third District, and of
the State, with the wisdom and fidel
ity which he has ever displayed and
will add to his new position more oi
honor than lie can derive from it-
Judge Coihran has always been in
perfect harmony with tin* Democracy
of the Country on all the leading ques-
rions of the day, ami, although lie has
not given ntleiaiioe to his views upon
some of the questions which are now
brought most prominently to the front
there is every reason to believe that
he stands now, where lie always stood,
fairly ami squarely upon the phis form
of the Democratic party, and that he
well of South Carolinians not only for
Its friendly aud powerful aid in the
past, but for Its liberal, higUtoned and
•ettva sympathy at the present time,
in relation to all that concerns the
tttate of South Carolina. It is a model
of enterprising journalism combined
with the Important essentials of good
fast*, reliability and a high regard for
the proprieties of honorable journal
ism- May it always constitute an im
portant feature among the fixed insti
tutions of the beautiful and substan
tia/ city of Augusta.

ash floor was scrubbed to a snowy white
ness, and the few chairs that the room
contained were placed against the wall in
a prim sort of way that seemed to indicate
that they had not been displaced in some
time. Along one siae of this apartment
wtro racks upon wuich were pans of milk,
tier on tier, nearly to the ceiling. Milk
cans of various sizes stood aiioat and a
long iron sink contained milk bottles that
a young maid was busily scalding. It
was, in fact, the milk room of a Jersey
dairyman. The young girl informed a re
porter tiiat her fatuer would be in in a
lew minutes. He came presently, followed
by two stout farm bauds, each bearing
two brimming pails of milk which were
speedily transferred to newly scalded
bottles. The farmer remarked that tho-e
A;d< fc neys would have to get more corn
meal, because they were invalid cows and
must be well fed. Then he noticed the
visitor and nodded a good morning.
“Why are they invalid cows?” asked the
newsman.
“Why, you see, there are a certain class
of customers who drink lots of milk sim
ply for medicine. There’s a lady on Mad
ison avenue, in New York, that takes
three quarts a day, aud I’m told she drinks
it all herself. Some of these people are
regular cranks, and the moment you give
them milk from a new cow, they spot it.
There was a little Jersey heifer, 3 years
old, that used to give beautiful milk al-
iiost is golden as the butter that could be
un.de frum.it, and this I furnished to a
couaumptive individual ou Twenty-third
■tree:. lie seemed to thrive on it, ani
ctuaily began to gain flesh, though his
hysiciau had assured him that tln-re was
uttle hope. Well, I got a chance to sell
ike cow, and as she gave so little milk I
did so. My customer was nearly wild
when 1 told him that this accounted for
the change, iu the milk. Ho inquired anx
iously as to who purchased and sent post
haste to the man. He was just in time to
prevent the animal’s becoming beef. The
heifer thus saved trom the butcher’s knift^
was placed in a li«o stable, fed like a
queen, and the owner had the two or more
qumts of milk furnished every day ior his
<»wn us?.
“i often drink milk myself when I don’t
'cel well, and it always does me good.
.Nearly every milkman bits individual
customers who take milk purely because
they think it strengthens the system.”
A prouiineut city physician subse-
jneutiy seen by the reporter sa'd: “I re

It is now a common practice to inject

The Pope’s Golden Rose.
A descendant of the famous Cellini, also
bearing that name, enuraved the golden
rose recently presented by the pope to the
queen regent of Spain.
The first of these golden roses were sim
ply flowers of red enamel, representing
the natural color of the rose. Later the
eolor of the rose was left white, and a
large ruby was put into the center, the
reflection from which gave the petals a
red tint. Innocent XL had a golden rose
made which weighed over eight pounds,
•vas ornamented with several sapphires,
.*nd represented a value of over 10,000
francs. Alexander VII. ordered one rose
it nearly 0,000 francs aud another at 4,000
raucs.
Lately the golden rose has been worth
>ver 10,000 francs, and has taken the form
of a branch with several flowers, a natu-
tal rose, which has been blessed by the
;«ipe, forming the center. Of this kind is
■ tie rose which tiie queen regent of Spain
aas just received, it is planted in a mag
nificent silver vase, which is a splendid
example of Roman workmanship. The
ose itself is said to bo a symbol of the
creator; the splendor and richness of tha
•netal represents the eternal fight which
surrounds the Divine, and tho perfumes
and spices which aro placed in tho vaae
by the pope symbwlizo the glory and res
urrection of Christ.—Court Journal

The Causes of IJaldness.
Though most persons are sensitive about
the gradual disappearance of their hair,
it is not generally from any fault of their
own. The hair of the northern nations
is brown and fine and disappears
easily. That of the southern nations is
dark and coarse, and every separate hair
is put through the two or three envelopes
that cover the skull and clinched on the
other side. Baldness is common in
northern Europe and rare in Spain and
Italy. It is much more common in the
north, of France and Italy than in the
south of those countries.
Baldness then becomes simply an ac
cident of birth. “Why,” it is asked sadly,
“Is that hapless being bald?” And the re
ply must necessarily be, “Not because he
wa • prematurely pious or preternaturally
wicked, but because he had the mis
fortune to be bora in a cold instead of in a
warm country, and so was endowed with
finer hair and a more refined organism.”
Bald-headed people should, then, rather
be pitied than despised, or perhaps looked
upon as being more delicately organized,
wore spiritual < r mor ' ethereal than their
f*_Uo\v -.—S:m F rnneisco Chronicle.
