At a school celebration at Fountain Inn, Greenville County, on July 2nd, Mr. W. L. Wait made the following address, which we copy from the Green? ville Enterprise and Mountaineer, and will doubtless prove interesting to the boys: The boy- is a necessary factor iu the economy of life. He fills a place in the world that could not be filled by any other created being were be tobe sud? denly swept out of existence. He is regarded with admiration and love, or fear and apprehension, according as he is your boy or someone else's. All ortho? dox boys begin life as babies, and as it is both interesting and profitable to study I the development, or as they say now the evolution, of a boy, I shall beg you to begin with me at the cradle. In this narrow and uncircumscribed world he at first demeans himself very much like babies of the other sort. ' He takes 600tbing-syrup, and cat-nip tea, and paregoric, and sucks his fist, and has the colic, and cries just like they have all done from the days of Cain and Abel down to the present time. In a short time, however, he b'egins to develop the distinguishing characteristics of the boy. He rebels, against dolls and other femi? nine playthings and insists on having toy horses ancl guns and tin horns. He, also, displays a most depraved and abnormal appetite for pins, needles, marbles and other similar objects which he discovers in his peregrinations over the floor, and then he scares the mother and father and all the neighbors nearly to death when he swallows one of these aud gets choked. Having escaped the perils of babyhood and learned to use his legs and tongue, he is- ready to begin the" journey of life on bis own account. His witty remarks and wise sayings are treasured up by his fond parents and duly rehearsed to admiring friends on all occasions to demonstrate his greatness; for what father and mother" are there who do not expect their boy to be a president or something else ? His boundless curicsity is constantly getting him into difficulties and being utterly re? gardless oif results bis troubles are innu? merable. He falls into tubs of water and would be drowned if some benevolent individual did uot pull him out, ho is thrown by horses, kicked by mules, hook? ed by cows, ground up in Cane-mills and cotton-gins, chopped to pieces by axes or knives and stares death in a thousand | forms.every'day of his life. He escapes ! by some miraculous accident, however; and nothing daunted by the experiences "of the past, he is ready for the next adventure. He was once the pride, but he now becomes the terror of the house? hold. He is forbidden toi sing, or to whistle in the house and is advised to curb bis musical instincts until he is in the midst of some vast solitude. He teases the cook and is driven out of the kitchen ; he makes the baby cry, and is Bent from V.he nursery in disgrace; he brings up in the parlor, only to be expell? ed by his grown up pister lest he should soil the .carpet or scratch the furniture with his unfortunate feet. He ia ejected from the fields and the horse-lot because of his ? propunsity to do things wrong. He has now become an Ishmaelite with every man's hand against him, and his hand '/against* every." man. Ho levies tribute: on a 11 the surrounding orchards and watermelon patches. To his taste the stolen water-melon is sweeter than honey and the honey comb. By and by a change comes over. him. At; one moment his voice is fine and shrill, and the next it is coarse. About this time-he also discovers that his neigh? bors' girls are beautiful and desirable. Hitherto he has yielded to no force short of an imperious necessity, but now he becomes gentlo and tractable, and his girl can bridle him with a thread and lead' him. whereveir her sweet will may dictate. He is alternately petted or jilted, and is accordingly on the mountain heights of joy Or down ia the cold valley of despair. At first his attentions to the fair sex are quite general,, and very fickle. He falls in "love with every pretty girl.he meets, and as he thinks nearly all or them are pretty it follows thathe changes almost ab -"often as ihe moon. ; After awhile, however, he roally falls in love, madly in love, with some fair one, and then the .fun begins.. He is afraid to make known his love to the object of his affections, leat sbo discard him. He watches anx? iously her every word and look to see if he may not gain some encouragement from, her ; while she, a naughty girl, reads the whole story from his actions as plainly as .one could read it in a book, and therefore leads him a long and dreary chase. Finally, he becomes desperate, makes one tremendous effort, is accepted, marries and passes off the stage of exist? ence as a boy. With all their faul tik and foibles, and follies, boys are desirable institutions. A great poet has uaid that the boy is father to the man. There is as much truth as poetry in this statement." They are the stuff that,.men are made of. If we look on the boys of to-day with a prophetic vision we will see the presidents, and governors, the senators and congressmen, ? the orato rs; and ? statesmen., j of the noxcr generation. The men of to-day will ave passed off the stage of action and the boys will take their places. When ' the diamond is arst taken from the mine it is a dull stone that would not attract the attention of a casual observer any more than stones that We see every day scattered all around us; but the trained eye of the miner readily detects its true character, and he knows that beneath the rough exterior lies hidden a beautiful brilliant which needs but to be cut to attract the admiring gaze of the world. He transfers it.to the skillful lapidary, who with patient industry pursues the tedious process of cutting it through days and weeks and -months and years, but after awhile the work is done, and lo 1 the perfect stone lies before you. It glows and sparkles and flashes like a great star, and-as it reflects its marvelous brilliancy upon you from innumerable facts you realize the merit and worth of the rough, stone which you would have been so ready to cast away. Our boys are the rough uncut diamonds that are entrusted to us to be fashioned by fathers and mothers and Bisters and teachers and sweethearts until they shall reflect all the true and manly Qualities that are hidden with them. If the rough diamond of which I have just spoken had been placed in the hands of a poor workman who was hot ? master of his art it would in all probabil? ity have been Bp oiled in the cutti ng, and instead of being the magnificent brilliant, it would have lain before you dull and lustreless. So it is with these boys. If -their education is neglected, if they lack the patient skill of a master's hand in their training they will grow up distorted characters, a disgrace to their tutors, and a dishonor to the State that bore them. This flourishing school which you have here is but one of the many agencies for their ? education. Important as is the office -of the teacher, he must necessarily leave much to be done by others. Do not treat your boys as if they were wild animals, but teach them to love and respect you. Make your homes beautiful and attractive, so that they will really feel that there is no place like - home. Let bright pictures adorn the walls. -Place good books and the best papers and magazines in their hands. Fill your front yards with grass and flowers and shrube-. -ryy The - small amount of money that will be reqired for these will repay you ?interest a thousand fold every year. You may be sure that if the good influences of home and mother are not brought to bear upon your boys, they will almost certainly fall into the wiles of the evil one. ? Every year the boys turn from their country homes and flock to the cities and towns, lured by the attractive prospect of lucrative employme nt. I shudder when I think of tho thousand forms of tempta? tion to which they will be subjected. Liquor saloons, bright with cut glass, brilliant decanters and sparkling wines stand on every corner to entice them. The gambling den is conveniently near to assist them on the downward path to destruction and innumerable other forms of ovil made atlraeliivo by all the devices that money cau buy aud ingenuity of tho arch enemy of man suggest are ready and waiting for fresh victims.' Be not deceived by the thought that your boy will be proof against such temptations. There is but one way in which they can be saved; aud that is so to educate them that they shall be living proofs that an honest, Christian man ia the noblest work of God. About Cheerful Men. If cheerful men were selling for 10 cenis apiece, and I had $2,000 to throw away, I wouldn't buy one of them. I used to have a positive reverence for a smiling, grinning, bland-voiced man. Many a time I've met "Smith or Green or White I on my way down town, and it would jump ! my soul a foot high to hear hiin call out: "Well, my boy, beautiful morning, eh? Isn't everything just lovely ? Why, I seem to be floating in raid air! Why, sir, I wouldn't trade this earth for all the heavens ever preached about by the ministers. Have a cigar? No? Then have a drink ? No ? Dear me! what can I do to brighten you up and make you feel like an angel on roller-skates ?" And I'd stand off and look at him and wonder if the land beyond the skies did really contain a happier soul. Ah! the old hypocrite I I got to know in after years that his children were afraid of him, his wife trembled as he entered the door, and that it was his daily habit to growl out as he left the door: "Wood 11 bought $2 worth last week. If that's gone we'll go without until Sat? urday. You are the mbst extravagant woman in Detroit. I believe you burn it up to spite me. Soap ? Didn't I get a bar last Saturday ? If you let the chil? dren play horse with the soap you must take the consequences. Go down on the ferry? I'd like to see myself lugging three or four younguns and a limping wife around town!" Your habitually cheerful man is an old fraud and a liar. He is well dressed, while his children are the rag-bags of the neighborhood. He has a dollar for ci? gars when his wife Wears a bonnet six yearo old. He passes for a whole-souled fellow with the public, but is a fault-find? er at home. You'll see him taking the cool breezes on the river, while his family are weltering in a stuffy house On some back street. ? I want to see a man grin when there's anything to grin at, but when Green gets up in the morning and declares he hasn't had a meal fit to eat for the last three months, and that he can't see why his wife's always groaning around and his children always whirling, he has no busi? ness to stop the first man he meets, with a smile clear back to his ears, and shout out: ''Why, old fel, how solemn you look I Brace up, man?life is worth the living ten times over I" I used to reverence Green. He bad a grip of the hand like a carpenter's vise ?he had a voice as bland as June?he'd make a consumptive believe that nothing more than a sore heel was the matter. I used to lie in ombust for him just to hear his hearty voice and see his serene coun tenancj?rand I'd go about my day's work wondering*what^8ort of a guardian angel he had. I found out one day when a policeman had to go in and stop him from beating his. wife. When you finda man who can grin over the servant girl's jumping out at an hour's notice, with wife flat in bed and the children having a scaflet fever look around the eyes, don't you go off on a fishing trip with him. When a man can soar among the angels with bill collectors ringing his door-bell?last week's grocery pill unpaid?the children Wanting shoes ?the rent running behind and his wife coughing all night long, he's an infernal old fraud and ought to be kicked. When a chap who has frozen the children, jawed the cook and blasted bis wife as a sort of morning tonic before leaving the house meets you about a block from tho gate and is troubled because you haven't got ybur aogel's harp on your shoulder, keep your, hand on any stray half dollar you happen to have about you. He's mean enough to steal chicken-broth from a boy with a. broken back.?AT. Quad in Detroit Free Press. Glanders-. ' This terrible disease has appeared in York County, but the animals that were attacked have been killed. The disease is very contagious, and an animal rarely recovers, in fact, it has been pronounced incurables The disease is caused by bad lodging, stimulating food, and excessive work.* The necessity this year for bo much extra and hard work on account of so much rain we suppose have led to the breaking out of the disease. The.symptoms are very easily discov? ered. The membrane lining the nostrils assumes a leaden or purple color, accom? panied by a thin acrid, transparent and odorless discharge. This is the first stage, during which the general health does not suffer, and the horse may do his ordinary work. The discharge grows thicker, and sinks when placed in water. The mem? brane lining the nostrils will be found to have sores, ragged and depressed at the top, with varicose veins leading to them from all sides. The appetite fails, and the horse as? sumes an emaciated and dull appearance. He will be hide-bound, and his legs swell during the day and the swelling go down \ at night. The ulceration of the liose is very bad, and the sores spread into his throat; the body also is sometimes afflicted with sores. The horse ultimately dies in a wasted condition. Most horsemen recommend that the horse be shot, but if the following treat? ment be adopted early it may prove suc? cessful: . Give from one half to two ounce dose oLsjaJphate of soda at night, in cut feed, for several weeks, and five grains Spanish, flies, (powdered) with it. Give, at the same time, every morning and noon, a Sowder consisting of three drachms pow? ered gentian, and two drahms powdered sulphate of copper. Give the medicines for a long time, not only to cure the dis? ease, but to improve the general health. Give a good liberal feed and change of? ten. Only three animals were discovered to be diseased, and they were killed on the recommendation of Prof. Benj. Mclnnis, Veterinary Surgeonj Charleston, who went to York County to examine the ani? mals. Friction Matches. A match is a small thing, but in the manufacture of matches one of the great corporations has grown up. It originated in a combination of the leading match manufacturers. The capital stock is about $25,000,000, arid last year a divi? dend of eight per cent, was paid. Match? es are much cheaper now than they used to be, by reason of some outside competi? tion with the great combination. Tbc Chicago manager of this combination, referring to the constant consumption of pine, says that his company has pine enough to last for twenty-five years. It is located in the Ontonagon region of Michigan. Matches can be made out of straw board as Well as of pine, but there is small inducement to attempt to make straw board matches while pine can be had in the production. Wax matches can also be made cheaply. Southern pine canuot be used for matches, since it is too full of pitch. The dry, punk-like pino of the northern woods is the only pine which is really fit for use. The further north the supply is secured the bettor the pine for the purpose of the match maker. ? The "Gospel wagon," which the Central Union Mission of Washington is using, commends itself as being the out? come of practical common sense. It is an ordinary omnibus, and contains a good choir and several speakers. Every Sun? day afternoon it is driven to regions whoro the inhabitant do not often hear (he Gospel preached, and religious ser? vices of an interesting character are held. ? The French government has pre? sented a gold medal to M. Dupuisch, a common porter In Paris, in recognition of his "extraordinary devotion in the giving of his blood in operations of trausfusiou of blood, thereby saving the , lives of -three persons." During tho past throe years the gallant porter has braved the perilous operation seven times. Died Hand in Hand. Atlanta Constitution, July 4th. North bound passenger train No. 12, on the East Tennessee r ilroad ran over a lady and gentleman on the copper mine trestle three miles south of Dallas yester? day morning, killing them. The lady and gentleman were bride and groom of twenty-four hours. The train which did tho killing left Atlanta yesterday morning at six o'clock and eighteen minutes. It was a through train and waascheduled to do some lively running. Conductor Evans, one of the most careful men on the road, was in charge and at frequent intervals gave his engineer Mr. Bowers instruction to.pull up. Three miles south of Dallas is a long trestle known as copper mine trestle. Trains going north approach this tres? tle on a heavy down grade and around a sharp curve, which prevents engineers from seeing the trestle until they are al? most upon it. Engineer Bowers was mov? ing at a lively speed when he struck the top of the grade leading to the trestTS. Without taking up his engine he roiled along towards the trestle and like a flash darted around the curve and upon the trestle. Just as tho engine turned the curve the fireman, who was on the svatch out, yelled : "Quyjk, there's a mau and woman on the trestle." The fireman's cry was a startling one, and as the engineer threw bis eyes to the front he saw a man and woman walking across the trestle. They were moving in the same direction as the train, and were evidently unconscious of their impending danger. They were hand in hand, and were in the middle of the track. The picture sent a chill to the engineer's heart, and with a hand as firm as a rock he grabbed his lever. In an instant the air brakes had been applied, and the engine wa3 rattling forward Under a re I verse motion. At the same time the shrill whistle sent forth an alarm which attract? ed the attention of the man just as the engine was in the act of running him down. When the man turned his head and saw the engine it was only a few feet away. He did not loso his presence of mind, however, and die without a strug? gle. He threw his left arm around the lady and made a leap towards the side of the trestle evidently with an intention to leap down into the gorge below. But ho was too late and just as he reached the rail tho pilot of tho engine hit him. For an instant he aed the lady seemed to rest upon it but as the engineer was be? ginning to hope that they would cling to the pilot until the engine crossed the trestle they both flew high into the air and as they went up, tho lady left the man's grasp. The lady, after whirling through the" air a short distance, dropped back upon the track and in another in? stant the heavy engine was crushing the life from her. The man was thrown much further than the woman and landed upon the track jnst in front of the engine as it came to'a standstill. The instant the engine stopped the en? gineer sprang off and ran back to the woman. A glance only was nececsary that nothing could be done for her. He then hurried to the man, whom he found living, but unable to talk. Conductor Evans, to whom the sudden halt and the danger whistles conve3*ed a knowledge of some troub1e, hurried forward as soon as he could leave the train and reached the man about the same time that bis engine did. The man was breathing and was bearly alive and was carefully carried into a car and made easy. The woman was lying under the engine and the muti? lated body was picked up and placed in the car and then the train moved on to Dallas. At Dallas the wounded man was removed to a hotel while the remains of the lady were placed in the depot and the coroner sent for. The dead lady and the injured man were strangers to every body who looked at them. The man could not talk and - no papers were found in his clothing. In the ladies' dress pocket, however,'was found a card on which was written W. C. Horton, J. P 033 Mariet? ta street, Atlanta, Ga. The Story of a Great Fortune. i Asa Packer of Pennsylvania, accumula? ted, by talent, energy and opportunity, about $30,000,000. He died in 1879, leaving a wife, two sons, a daughter and suverai grand children of a deceased daughter, who inherited the bulk of his estate. The Lehigh University received $li500,000j and nearly $1,000,000 more went to charity. In case his children all died childless, the University and Beth? lehem Hospital were to receive, the one, $8,000,000 and the other $2,000,000. Mrs. Packer Boon followed her husband to the grave. The two sbns died soon afterward leaving do descendants, although one of them married twice. The daughter, the sole surviving child, became the possessor of one-third of this vast estate when she was more than forty yeara old, having against her brother's wish, married a poor man named Cummings, an humble, but respectable and intelligent, empolyee of the family railway. The contingency of an heir was deemed so .unlikely that the University and Hospital regarded the residuary millions as good as won for their cause. After eighteen months of marriage, however, the mature daughter of Asa Packer, and wife of Mr. Cum? mings, has prospect of an heir. If the child survive, consternation will fall upon the Lehigh University and Bethlehem Hospital. What hopes and fears are marshalled on the one side to keep this mighty fortune 1 What a terrible temp? tation, on the. other sid?j to dovoutly or maliciously pray that the child will never be born alive or live to in? herit what Asa Packer had so strenuo? usly and wonderfully developed from the modern cave of Aladdin I Men toil and .groan and strive to accumulate earthly treasure, but seldom perpetuate it in their own line. There is nearly always a skeleton at the feast, and Providence, after granting the bounty, often diverts it in the most uulooked for way. Queen Isabella was not expected to have chil? dren, and upon that result hung the hopes of Louis Philippe. She had several de? scendants, and lived to see the French monarch a dethroned fugitive. Mrs. Cummings was "booked" to be fruitless, but disappointed all calculation. What joy will come to her, if her child should thrive 1 What glee will compass the University and Hospital about, if she look upon her baby, only to see it die! Lice on Chickens. Thousands of young chickens die annu ally simply because they are lousy ; and the cause is not apparent owing to the smallnesB of the parasites that bury themselves in the down of the little chicks and are not seen, and many times not even suspected, even after the whole brood is destroyed by them. Various means have been.recommended for this difficulty, some of which are more de? structive to the little creatures than the lice themselves. Sulphur and lard mixed, and applied to the hen, under the wings, will destroy the insects, but needs care in applying, else it will prove fatal to the brood.' A strong tea of wormwood, or tauzy, made by steeping either of these herbs in hot water, and wheu cold ap? plied to the heads of tho little chicks, and to the breasts and under the wings of the old hen, is very effectual. But perhaps the best remedy, and the cafest withal, is a solution of carbolic soap. Take an ounce of carbolic toilet soap and dissolve it in one quart of warm soft water; with this thoroughly wet the head and neck of the chick. It kills the lice immediately, and eoon dies off, leaving the chick all right and free from the destructive insect. Old fowls that are lousy may be thoroughly and easily washed with this solution, with marked benefit. Try it, and be freed from one of the worst evils of chicken-breeding.. Bucklen's Arnaca Salve.

' "CHUMPS" Who Gather in the Ducats at the Expense of Suffering Humanity. The Glaring Gall Exhibited by Non Professional Frauds. The 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 cleverly concocted certificates are forced upon the unsus? pecting, purporting Lo 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. Auother 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 lo receive their greatest condemnation, wheu 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. B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm) contains iodide of potash.
