The child-wife iB the most interesting, as she is too often the most pathetic, character which we have to study in the' drama of everyday life that is being en .-acted-'around usif We find her most ac? curately protrayed, perhaps, in the per? son of Dora, the fond and foolish bride of .David Copperfield', and the utter un fitnessof thiB silly creature for the place in which she was installed in her hus? band's heart and home, is shown-by the great master with a touch that is as strong as it is tender, and with a fidelity of description that spares neither our contempt nor our tears. It is not in the nature of things ? that children should marry each other, and it is no whit better for either of the ill-mated, unmatched pair when a woman takes to herself a boy-husband, or a man seeks support and counsel and comfort in the society of a child-wife. They say that love is blind, aud the argument is used by the Optimists, hold? ing that all things are ordered for the best, to maintain that "what is done is past recalling," and that the special providence of the blind god watches over his tender but misguided votaries. The apologists?for they can be nothing else?for marriage in practical childhood are very fond of quoting the instance of somebody in France, who became a bride at thirteen and lived "happily forever afterwards." But the argument is open to the fata] objection that it proves noth? ing: for philosophers do not usually imild very strong, arguments on special instances. There are, of course, two high con? tracting parties to early marriages, and unfortunately the greater share of the burden of consequent unhappiness falls with dulling force on the school-girl bride. Why this should be so is appa? rent at the first blush. That the world is full of misfits needs no proof. The ill-matched are numerous in the land, and in many cases the wrecked life or lives are easily traceable to that haste to marry which leaves so much time for the traditional repentance at leisure. It is a "liard thing to. say,"but it should be0 said, that the want of common nenso in mak ; ing matches always carries with it a la? tent measure of retributive justice. A very young wife may become through years of culinary discipline a most ex? cellent housekeeper, but she sadly inis-. judges the :.object :of married life when she loses sight of the fact that a clever housekeeper is not necessarily the life ?long compaion whom a husband seeks. The child-wife enters upon the blessed state of marriage fresh from school, with an indifferent share of the most elementary knowledge, and a thorough? going belief inthe romance of life; and there her education, ceases.. She has no time for improvement, and before many years roll round she finds that an almost impassable gulf divides and continues to ?divide her and her h6ro. The' pretty little Juliet, who was once the equal of Romeo, and met every requirement of his taste, has fallen sadly into the background and although, which is doubtful, he may j.C?rfh'hne to cherish her, he can't help i instituting comparisons bet (veen her. and other womeD who have not rushed in where , even angels fear to tread. She cannot fail to understand the difference between herself and the ideal wife, and ?then and there the sad story begins to be told, the last chapter- of which ends only with the grave. Such women as 'these forget that men do not stop learn? ing worldly wisdom on their marriage day. They "are abroad in the world's 'great school, rising higher and. higher, day by day, over the romantic recluse at home who sits idly down, unconsciously :weavinglhe web in which Ehe is eventu? ally cnsnared'and made wretched. It is the law of nature that gay youth sball love gay youth, and the gayer they are the more loving will'thuy be, but it is time enough, to marry whsn a girl has reached the age and measure of discre? tion when she can look beneath the ro? mantic exterior of Prince Charming"and estimate him by his practical -merits. There may be happy marriages as the result of young love's dreamS, but it should always be taken into consideration that in the lottery of love the; chances are against it, and that those who take the chances must take the consequences. It is a hard matter to draw the line at any particular place and say, here you shall marry ana here yon shall not, for the all-sufficient reason that such advice unfortunately; is seldom taken. Too much advice often lands tie advisee in the forties, and she spends in vain the rest-of her solitary existence trying to prove to the shy cavaliers that there is a good deal of truth in the'Japanese phil? osophy that, "a maiden's all the better when she's tough." ? It may be urged, however, with all due regard for the hasty or dilatory in mat? ters matrimonial, that it is best to "bide a-wee"?always so long, and longer if possible. Make haste slowly, and do not forget that the "holiday," whenever yon agree to have it, soon draws to a close. Honeymoons are not spent at home, and home is the place where the lesson of life is to be learned. If the prospects of happiness could be summed up in a few words they would, to our mind, rest on the philosophical consideration that "pa? tience, forbearance, faith, and the sort of love that will make one happy in making concessions to the other," are necessary to that "true union of souls, without which there can be no complete marriage ?no marriage that can withstand the blight of winter days." The Boys that are Wanted. "Distance leads enchantment," and the city looks well from the farm.. Per? haps yon dp not see the thorns and this i ties, but they crow in the city. Home discipline may be hard to bear, but in it are the germs of all successes. Parents midway in the temple of life, certainly must know more than those standing upon the threshold. It is always safe to listen to the voices of wisdom and affec? tion. Ton may not be permitted to con? trol, all things at home, but please re? member before seeking the larger liberty of the city, that you control nothing here. You may wear store clothes, but you must be the servant of all. Liberty and ease are the fruits of toil. The boy who knows more than his parents and teachers, goes to the wall in tirs-city. Success depends upon indus? try, obedience, economy, and purity, brown hands clean tongues and pure hearts are in great demand in the city. A country loafer becomes a city loafer, and neither city nor country crowns loaf? ers. The earthquake never breaks the ground so as to leave the gold, at their Feet. Boys whose noble and manly lives are the guiding impulse of the pastor's hand when writing letters of condemna? tion received the most cordial welcome from merchants here. There is a famine of boys who feel that God is watching them, and who are true to their employers because of the loyalty to their heavenly Master. The demand for scch is always greater than the sup? ply. In the clay you must begin way down, but smilingly submit to the inevi? table, and make each day tell how much, and not how little good work you can do, and you will be in the line olf promotion. Never desire to coin a dollar except around the golden rule. You may not accumulate as rapidly and still love your neighbor as yourself, but the smile of Gou will be upon every dollar. If you are a country boy you will not have so many" temptations, perhaps, but every one of "ourboys'' will find honesty to be the best policy at all times and in all places.? Chr?tifinat,' Work. ?

Orland Smith for a notice of the proceedings of the Fruit and Vegetable Growers' Association, held at Columbus, Ohio, June*the 17th. We quote from the slip forwarded the Register, the following information touch? ing, a matter of much moment to South? ern farmers and Southern people generally. We allude to the saving of fruit and vegetables by the new process of evapo? ration : "The most interesting discussions were ou the value and use of fruits and the best methods of preparing fruit for market and preserving it for family use. .The opinion seemed prevalent that evaporated fruit was bound to obtain and hold the highest position in public favor. Not only is evaporated fruit superior in ap? pearance, in flavor, in healthfuiness and in keeping properties, but it commands a much higher price; ordinary dried ap? ples are worth from two to two and a half cents per pound, evaporated apples from eight to ten cents. Common dried peaches are worth from three to five cents, evaporated from eighteen to twenty-two1 cents. Ezra Arnold, the Illinois fruit grower, presented drawings and specifica? tions of a cheap evaporator made and used by himself with which he has had better success than with the more expen? sive dry houses and evaporators. He evaporated apples in two hours, straw? berries in three hours, peaches in two hours, eben: es in two hours, corn in two hours, and all kinds of fruits proportion? ately quick. The evaporator is a marvel of simplicity and excellence, and can be made by any one at a very trifling cost. By its use millions of dollars can be saved the producer and consumer each year. There are thousands of families that dry large qnantities of fruit annually in the oldfashioned, slow way, and sell it at the oldfasbioned, low price, when they could with but little expense make an evapora? tor and evaporate five times as much fruit I and sell it for five times as much per : pound.. There are thousands of families in the cities that can at times, when the | market is glutted, buy fruit for less than j the cost of production, and with ah evap? orator can prepare in a few days suffi? cient fruit for a year's consumption, and at one-tenth the usual expenditure. Mr. Arnold said he did not intend to make or sell evaporators and would consign to the Association his right and title to his evaporators, provided the Association would, procure cuts to illustrate the dif? ferent parts and distribute gratuitously, among the farmers, fruit raisers and con? sumers of the United States complete illustrated directions for making aha us? ing this evaporator." Mr. Arnold's proposition was accepted by the association, and the Secretary was instructed -to inform the people of each State through the press that the illustrat? ed directions for making and using Ar? nold's fruit evaporator will be furnished by addressing the Secretary, W. Orlando Smith, Alliance, Ohio, Box 104, and enclosing a stamp for return postage. r . Where so much fruit and vegetables rot for want of ready home market or transportation, as is largely tbo case all over the.South, it will readily appear of what value to Southern farmers this cheap process of Mr. Arnold's will prove. If five times the amount can be saved by evaporation and sold for five times the Srice now obtained, what ought it not to o for the Southern farmer if it can be put to such account with us ? What would it not do for our sweet potato crop ? The Cotton States made in 1880 27,800,603 bushels of sweet potatoes out of 33,378,693 for the whole country.. The same States made in 1860 35,976,422 out of a total of 42,095,026. It is thus seen that these States wont back in 1880 in sweet potato ..production over eight millions of bushels a year on the produc? tion of I860, although they had gained over eleven million bushels annual pro? duction on that of 1870. If we should make the same rate of increase in 1890 that we did from '70 to '80 it would show a sweet potato crop in 1890 of 50,000,000 bushels. It will be seen these States were making some 4$ bushels to the inhabitant in 1860 and less than 2} bushels in 1880. Now, with an increase no greater than that from '60 to '80 the cotton States would have a population of 14,500,000 in 1890. calling for a sweet potato crop of nearly sixty-nine bushels at old ra'e of I860. There can be little doubt of the capaci? ty of the South to make this crop and thrice the same without any material change in its agricultural industries. Now, it 1b known that at least one-fourth if this crop is lost from rottage, and not only this, that a vast consumption for the palatable esculent, a favorite everywhere in our own country and abroad, is l?st because the crop will not bear transport? ation to any distance, nor will it keep when transported. If we can inaugurate this cheap evap? oration process our sweet potato crop would for the first time become a crop that could go to all the markets of the world freely. In such an event there would be no limit to production, which, should it yield an average of thirty cents a bushel ou the farm with a steady mar? ket before it, would soon give the South another new and great industry. We could feed the starving millions of the world besides clothing them. We hope, then, our South Carolina farmers will not fail to take advantage of the liberal offer of the Fruit and Vegeta? ble Association, and send for the direc? tions of the new Arnold method. True Business Principles. It is as easy to be a rich man as a poor one. Half the energy displayed in keep? ing ahead that is required to catch up when behind would save credit, give more time to attend to business, and add to the profit and reputation of those who work for gain. Honor your engage? ments. If you promise to meet a man or to do a certain thing a certain moment, he ready at the appointed time. If you go on business, attend promptly to mat? ters on hand, then as promptly go about your own business. Do not stop to tell stories in business hours. If you have a place of business be j found there when wanted. No man can get rich by sitting around stores. Never fool on business matters. Have order, system, regularity, liberality, promptness. Do not meddle with business you know nothing of. Never buy an article you do not need, simply because it is cheap and the mau who sells it will take it out in trade. Trade is money. Strive to avoid harsh words and personalities. Do not kick every stone in the path ; more miles can be made in a day by going steadily on than by stopping to kick. Pay as you go. A man ot honor respects his word as he does his bond. Aid, but never beg. Help others when you can, but never give what you cannot afford to, simply because it is fashionable. Learn to say "no." No necessity for snapping it out in dog-fashion, but say it firmly and respectfully. Have but few confid? ants, and the fewer the better. Use your own brains rather than those of others. Learn to think and act for yourself. Be vigilant. Keep ahead rather than behind time. Young man, cut this out if there be folly in the argument, let us know. How a boy led a Charge. In an interesting sketch of a campaign in the West in 1863, a writer in a Mem? phis paper says: Officers und men vied with each other in deeds of daring. One especial case deserves mention. Accom? panying Gen. Forrest was a little boy, scarcely 12 years old, who was serving as a courier. This little boy had, a day or two before, dropped iuto a Tennessee battalion commanded by a major. Short? ly after the light began the major wus killed and the command retreated in con? fusion. But this little boy rallied the battalion, and led them three times to the charge upon the enemy's lines, but without dislodging them. Heroic boy! I shall never forget the scene of a little midgit, scarcely large enough to guido a horse, leading a battalion of bravo and dauntless men right up to the enemy's ranks I He came out unscathed. ? He that swells in prosperity will shrink in adversity. I How It Feels to be Hanged. Theodore Baker, of Santa Fe, New J Mexico, has been through an almost un? precedented experience. He killed a man named Unrow, and was in jail for the crime. One night recently masked men hanged him ana, after fifteen min? utes had elapsed, left him as dead. In several hours he was restored to life. He says: "I went with them, and at tbe jail door I began to curse them, when one of them put the muzzle of his pistol to my ear and said: 'Keep still, or I'll put a bullet through you.' I knew him by bis voice, and knew he would do it, and I kept still. A little further on we came toja telegraph pole. From the crossbar Bwung a new ropo. On the end was a big slipnoose. They led me under the rope. I tried to stoop down and pull my boots off, as I had promised my folks not to die with my boots on, but before I could do it the noose was thrown over my head and I was jerked off my feet. My senses left me a moment, and then I waked up in what seemed to be another world. As I recollect now, tbe sensation - was that everything about mo had been multiplied a great many times. It seemed that my five executioners had grown in number until there were thou? sands of them. I saw what seemed to be a multitude of animals of all Bhapes : and sizes. Then things changed and I was in great pain. I became conscious that I was hanging by the neck, and that the knot of the rope bad slipped around under my chin. My hands were loosely tied, and I jerked them loose and tried to catch the rope above me. Somebody caught me by tbe feet just then and gave me a jerk. It seemed like a bright flash of lightning passed in front of my eyes. It was the brightest thing I ever saw. It was followed by a terrible pain up and down and across ray back, and I could feel my legs jerk and draw up. Then there was a blank, and I koew nothing more nntil 11 o'clock the next day. '* * * My first recollection was being in the court room and Baying: ' vVho cut me down ?' There was a terrific ringing in my ears like tbe beating of gongs. I recognized no one. The pain in my back continued. Moments of uncon? sciousness followed during several days, and I have very little recollection of tbe journey here. Even after I bad been locked up in this prision for safe keeping, for a long time I saw double. Dr. Sym? ington, the prison physician, looked like two persons. I was still troubled with spells of total forgetfulness. Sometimes it seemed I didn't know who I was." Every Time, .Every time I decline to defend a prin? ciple that I believe in, I prove myself an office-hunter and a coward. ? Every time I speak positively on any subject I must expect to offend some one. Every moment of time I lose is a rob? bery of myself. Every time I fear death I prove I am not fit to live. Every time that I doubt by ability to perform, I lose a portion of my power to accomplish. Every time I speak a kind word, I am adding a brick in my temple of man? hood. " Every time I tell the truth I add to my strengt'a of character. Every time I refuse a glass of liquor I am improving my manhood. Every time I speak cross and impet? uously I'm weakening my nerve power and aiding to the misery of some one. Every time I paj a debt, I am doing right, and helping to put money in circulation. Every time I refuse to do a favor when I can as well as not, I prove that I am growing meau. . Every time I refain speaking in defense of a friend, I prove thatl am not a friend. Every time I give to distant charities to tho neglect of those at home, I am guilty of giving only for vain glory. Every time I borrow a newspaper I do a very small act. Every time I oppress a servant, I am guilty of a sin against Ood. Every time I inflict pain upon a dumb animal, I lower myself below tho victim of my anger. Great Hen Persecuted. There is a discouraging list to the honest pursuer of truth and right. Fame is more easily won than maintained. But the fame of those whose name com? poses time. If you are willing to accept the l?t/struggle on brave fellow and per? haps some day your name will bo associ? ated with those that follow: Abel was murdered. Christ was crucified. Stephen was stoned. Homer was a beggar. Galileo was tortured. Priestly was mobbed. Sidney was beheaded. Chrysoatum was exiled. Cicero was murdered. ? Aristides was banished. Crr>mr was assassinated. Bonaparte died in exile. Savage died of starvation. Themistocles died in exile. Joseph was sold as a slave. Victor Hugo was banished. Josiah was shot by the archers. Paul and Peter were crucified. Cranmer was burned at the stake. John the Baptist was beheaded. Jeremiah was shut in a dungeon. Sir John Franklin froze to death. Daniel was cast into the lion's den. Socrates was imprisoned and poisoned. Livingston died in the jungles of Afri? ca. Seneca was forced to open his own veins. Ben Butler And Father Ryan. The late poet-priest of the South fre-1 quently told the following-anecdote of his stay in New Orleans: It was during the war when Gen. Butler was in charge of the city. A Catholic soldier in the Union forces there died, and because some one blundered no religious rites j were observed at the funeral. It was re ported to Butler that Father Ryan had i refused to read tbe burial service. In a towering rage Butler sent for the priest and in tbe most peremptory and offensive way demanded why he was not given all the honors of the church to the deceased. Father Eyan quietly explained the mat- ' ter, showing that be was not to blame; that the fault was due to the comrades of the dead Boldier, and added; "It is, therefore, not true that I refused to bury him. It is also uot true I have publicly and repeatedly refused to officiate at the funeral of any Federal soldier or officer. On the contrary, it is the reverse of the truth, for, general, it would give me great pleasure to bury tho whole lot of you!" Butler's stern face relaxed into a grim smile, and from that day he and Father Ryan had no further trouble in common. Great Physicians. As tho celebrated French physician, Desmoulins, lay on his death bed, he was visited and almost constantly surrounded by the most distinguished medical men of Paris, as well as the prominent citi? zens of the French metropolis. Great were the lamentations of all at the loss about to be sustained by the profession in the death of one they regarded as its brightest ornament; but Desmoulins spoke cheerfully to his fellow practition? ers, assuring them that he would leave behind three physicians much greater than himself. Each of the doctors, hop? ing that his own name would be called, inquired anxiously who was sufficiently illustrious to surpass the immortal Des? moulins. With great distinctness tho dying man answered: "They are Water, Exercise and Diet. Call in the services of the first freely, of the second regularly, and of the third moderately. Follow this advice and you may dispense with my aid. Living, I could do nothing without them, and dying I shall not be missed if you -make friends with Iheao my faithful coadjutors." ? "In weakness there is strength," re-1 marked the boarder as he put a chunk of Samson butter in his coffee. The Tolne of Snowing: How* While Judge Tracy was on the circuit, going from court, his trace broke. The judge spent over a half hour trying to fix it, but to no purpose. His patience was exhausted, and he expressed his vex? ation in words. A negro came along, and the judge told him of his difficulty. The negro let out the trace, cut a hole in it, and the job was done. "Why," said the judge, could I not have thought of that ?" "Well, marster," said the negro, don't you know that some folks is jest smarter than some other folks ?" "That's so," Baid the judge. "What shall I pay you for fixing my trace ?" "Well, marster, fifty cents will do," replied the negro. "Fifty cents I" said the judge. "You were not five minutes at it!" "I do not charge you fifty cents for doing it," said the negro. "I charge you twenty-five cents for doing it, and twenty five cents for knowing how to do it." Sublime Self-Sacrifice. At the siege of Turin, in 1706, the French bad obtained possession of one of the subterraneous galleries which com? municated with the citadel. Hoping by this means to make themselves masters of the citadel they had secretly posted in the gallery a party of 200 grenadiers. A Piedmontese peasant named Micha, who had been forced to serve as a pioneer, and who had been made a corporal, was at work on a mine near the spot with twenty men. Hearing the French overhead, and convinced that if they remained a mo? ment longer masters of the gallery the fortress would bo lost, he determined to sacrifice his own life to save the place. He immediately sent away his comrades, desiring them to let him know by the discharge of a musket when they were out of reach of danger. As soon as he heard the signal he put the match to the mine and blew himself up along with 200 grenadiers. The king of Sardinia re? warded bis wife and children, whom at the moment of bis death, Micha had recommended to his care, and he likewise settled a pension on the whole of his family. Learning a Horse to Pace. To teach a horse to pace, take 9 or 10 pounds of lead, divide in four parts, equal to 3} inches by 41 in size; make two boles in each end of these leads, fasten two of them together and have them padded. Then fasten them on the horse's legs, one on each hind leg, just above the ankle joint. Eide your horse briskly with those weights upon his ankles, at the same time pulling each rein of tho bridle alternately. By this means you immediately throw him into a pace. After you have in this way trained him to some extent, change your leaden weights to something lighter; leather paddings or something equal to it will answer the purpose. Let him wear the light weights until be is perfectly trained. By adopting.this plan you will speedily make a smooth and easy pacer of any horse. The Soft Chains of Hymen. People who have called upon President Cleveland since his wedding remark with pleasure the change which that event has created in him. Instead of the rough and somewhat uncouth man that he was three weeks ago, he has developed into a very agreeable and companionable per? son. The stern appearance with which he formerly greeted visitors has given way to a smile which is as hearty as it is pleasing.

Non Tho country is flooded with bogus med? icine men, and in a few cases a heavy capital is all they have to sustain their prestige. Numerous chverly concocted certificates are forced upon the unsus? pecting, purporting to have "snatched from the grave" some poor victim of blood poison or other disease, when to our knowledge the identical persons lay groaning in agony while the public were, reading of their remarkable recovery. Another serious offense is the publica? tion of erroneous statements concerning various drugs, such as are daily pre? scribed by our best physicians, declaring them to be deadly poisons. Iodide of potash, which seems t3 receive their greatest condemnation, when prescribed by physicians and in the proper combina? tion with certain compounds, is not only harmless, but forms one of the most pow? erful antagonists to blood poison known to the medical world.
