How many mothers and fathers all over our land are saying with sadness: "Where is my wandering boy to-night? The boy of my tendercst care, The boy that was once my joy and light, The child of my love and prayer?" They can hardly realise that their boy, once so innocent and pure, has gone astray. And they cannot understand why he should have done bo. Did he not have a good home, plenty to eat and wear ?and was he not raised up in the Sun? day School, and restrained from associa? tions that would tend to lead him off? The truth of the business is. he bad no boyhood?he is expected to fill his life with work and study. When he got out, and found other boys with various kinds of amusements he realized that his life was monotonous. If he could not have recreations at home then he will seek them elsewhere. When home ceases to be the centre of attraction and but only a place in which to eat and sleep, there's something wrong in the machinery of that home. If mothers and fathers would keep green the memory of their youthful days, and enter more into the joys and sorrows of the young people, there would not be such a lack of confidence and 'sympathy between parents and children. Supply the children with amusements for rainy days, and the long winter even? ings. Give them dominos, back gam? mon, draughts, authors, &c. Stereo? scopes and views are not expensive, and they give much pleasure to the inmates and visitors of a home. Then for the summer season?a cro? quet set, a hammock in a shady nook, and a swing should be a part of the fur? nishing of a quiet country home. I hear you say: "I am not able to get such things"?get what you can. Barrel staves and rope and auger with which bore holes and a little patience and in* dustry are all that are necessary for mak? ing a very comfortable and lasting ham? mock. It will not be as expensive in the-end to spend money in making home attract? ive thereby keeping the boys there, as to pay their whiskey bills and gambling debts. No place is home without love, and no home ia complete without music. En? courage singing, for it is a very inexpen? sive entertainment. If there's any musical talent in the family cultivate it, if possible. If you cannot at once get a piano or organ get a guitar or violin. A French hasp is bet? ter than no music at all. There'll surely be muBic in Heaven, and if we get there I imagine it will be a source of great pleasure to join in that grand chorus. Memory brings back to me now many times in the past when our home circle would be complete, but about to sepa? rate?all would gather around the piano, and while one played all Bang: "God be with you 'till we meet again." An other reason why the boys and girls leave the old homestead for the trials and temptations of the outside world is that they are made to feel their dependence so sensibly. If they need a nickel they have to ask father for it and tell just how they are going to spend it. Hard earned money should be spent judiciously; but if the boys and girls were given some branch of industry by which they would make money for themselves?they would not be apt to spend it foolishly. Let the girls have their poultry yard, or straw? berry patch independent of mothers?the boys have their own cotton or corn?or a hog, or calf to attend to and they have the entire proceeds. It will be the first lesson in their business education, and independence and self-reliance are im? portant characteristics of business men and women. Grace Goedon. How to Make a Good Wife Unhappy. See your wife as seldom as possible. If she is warm-hearted and cheerful in temper, or if after a day's or a week's absence, she meets you with a smiling face and in an affectionate manner, be sure to look coldly upon her and answer her with monosyllables. If she forces back her tears, and is resolved to look cheerful, sit down and gape in her pres? ence till she is fully convinced of your indifference. Never think you have anything to do to make her happy, but that her happiness is to flow from grati? fying your caprices; and when she has done all a woman can do, be sure you do not appear gratified. Never take an in? terest in any of her pursuits; and if she asks your advice, make her feel that she is troublesome and impertinent. If she attempts to rally you good humoredly on any of your peculiarities, never join in the laugh, but frown her into silence. If she has faults (which, without doubt, she will have, and perhaps be ignorant of), never attempt with kindness to correct them, but continually obtrude upon her ears: "What a good wife Mr. Smith has 1" "How happy Mr. Smith is with his wife 1" "Any fman would be happy with such a wife!" In company never seem to know you have a wife; treat all her remarks with indifference, and be very affable and complaisant to every other lady. If you follow these direc? tions, you may be certain of an obedieut and heart broken wife.? N, Y. Ledger.

Eaten by Hogs, Wichita, Kas., May 11.?Yesterday afternoon the 6-year-old son of John Renner, a farmer living some miles south of Greensburg, Kiowa County, met a horrible death. The little fellow and a small sister were out in a garden patch digging a hole. Finally the boy suggest? ed trying what being buried felt like and he sat down in the cavity and his sister threw in all the loose dirt until every? thing but the boy's head was covered. The children had just nbout had enough of their amusement when they were attacked by a couple of hogs, who drove off the girl and then proceeded to feed off the head of the little fellow in the ground. The screams of tho girl brought succor, but too late, for the boy's head had been bo horribly mangled by the pigs that he was a corpse when taken from his liviog grave. ?One always like to hear a pretty girl {alk, even if Him doeanU say anything, He Was Smart. , "You wouldn't'take me for a very sharp fellow, would you ?" asked an old man who lives in a "boomed" district of Ten? nessee. Several men were sitting on the platform at a railway station, waiting for a train. The old fellow had come with pies, made of dried peaches, and had offered in vain to Bell cut for ten cents. "No,'' anawered one of the men, "I'd not take you to be very Bharp." "Well, I'll just tell you how sharp I was. Two or three weeks ago, atter the boom Bot in over yandef at Cardiff, I no? ticed One mornin' that a lot of fellers was pokin' round in my field. I went over an' fouud that they had a lot of chains an' three legged things, an' was taking sight at nothing in particular. But 1 6ooo seed that they must' 'a' had some thin' particular in view, ftir they didn't want to tell me what tbe'r business was, an' finally they worried me so with drag gin' of chains and' takin' of sight that I told them that if they didn't move on away I would set the dogs on them. That brought them to time, au' one of them draw'd me to one side an' asked me what I would take for that field. Wall, I didn't know. It was a putty fa'r piece of land an' I wa'n't itchin' to Bell it, still I mout be dragged into partin' with it. They didn't seem very anxious about the price?all tbey 'peared to want to know was if they conld git the land. Finally I told them that they mout have it for one thousand dollars, a putty high mark, I can tell you; but they bit like a trout. They paid me the money an' I went home about as happy a man as tbar was in the County. Wall, the next day, what did I diakiver ? Them fellers begun to lay the land off in town lots an' then my wife hopped on me, She 'lowed that I never did have no sense nohow, and swore that them fellers would build a town right thar under our very noEes an' sell the lots for big money an' that we would have to set thar with our little thousand dollars an' Bee a city with great blocks of buildings grow up. I seed the point, an' the next day I got a feller to slip around an' buy up the lots. I borred all the money I could an' wife she borred all she could, an' after investin' nearly four thousand dollars we were masters of the situation. We had heard of the new railroad that was comin' in an' we waited an'waited, but it didn't come; so atter while, eeein' that the men had stopped takin' sight and' draggin' thar chains, I went around to investigate an' lo and behold the fellers had dun left the neigh? borhood. 1 have sense learned that they have played that trick in several places an' that they never did build no town, They put the job mighty nice an' the feller that was so sharp in buyin' back the land for me was one of the raskile himself. Now, my wife 'lows that I am the biggest fool in the world an' has gone to town to git a divorce from me, an' here I am tryin' to sell pieB fur a livin'." Artificial Ice, Making artificial ice is an industry that has been carried on in the South for many years. In this latitude it has not been necessary, because nature generally gives us a liberal supply at a very mod? erate price. Few persons understand what the process is. Here is a very sim? ple explanation of it. The apparatus required for making artificial ice includes a powerful engine for driving the pumps, great iron retorts for holding the aqua ammonia, a long system of coil pipes, and extensive vats to contain the ice cans. The process depends upon the capacity of a substance that is expand? ing, after great condensation, to absorb heat. The substance used in this case is ammonia. Mixed with water it is placed in one or more of the great cylin? ders or retorts, which contains coils of pipe. Into these pipes steam is sent, heating the contents of the retort until the ammonia is separated from the water and Bent into another retort, where it is subjected to great pressure, under which it liquefies. In another room, provided with double doors and walla like those of a refrigera? tor, are several vats, in which are sus? pended canB of galvanized iron. Some of these cans are calculated to hold 200 pounds of ice and others are still larger. Between these cans pass lines of iron pipes, connected with the retorts outside, and the entire vat, in which cans and pipes are contained, is filled with brine. In the great condensation to which the ammonia haa been subjected to liquefy it, it has parted with all its heat, and the large pipes which carry it to the vat are so cold as to be covered with frost. When ice is to be made,'the cans are filled with distilled water and covered with thick capB. The ammonia ia then admitted to the coils running through the brine of the vat. As soon as the tremendous pressure is relieved, by turn? ing the stop-cocks, the ammonia expands into gas, resumes the amount of heat with which it parted when undergoing con? densation, and, of course extracts it from the surrounding brine. This, in turn, extracts heat from the distilled water, which freezes, as the brine itself would do, were it not saline and kept in motion by means of pumps. In a few hours each can contains a mass of solid ice, and is then hoisted from the vat, dropping for a moment in warm water to loosen the ice, and upset. The block of ice slides out, and is either stored or placed in front of 9 circular saw and divided into smaller blocks. After the ammonia has done its work, it is returned to a retort, conducted to its starting place and reabsorbed by water. It can then be used over again, and this process goes on continuously, with some slight waste.?American Any list. _ ? _ ?

Deacons Take a Dead Sinner from Athoilg the Saints. Last Thursday a warrant was taken out before Trial Justice Kirby for Jeff Stevens, Munro?Cooper and Arter Martin for moving the dead body of Tom Brock man from one part of the grave yard at Foster's Grovo, neat Cherokee, to another part. These men are all colored and officers and managers of their church property. Ab we understand the case, Tom Brock-man waB buried by his friends in that portion of the grave yard set aside for "aaints/'and he being a sinner, had no right to mingle his dust with the "saintB.^ TheBe officers proceeded to the graveyard and reverently moved the body and gave it a decent burial in that portion of the graveyard set aside for Binnera. This is not an offense against any of our statutory laws, but according to the common law "violating a grave" is a crime. The extremes meet in church government These colored people, out on Cherokee, have the same opinion that prevails in very high churches. Some of these Churches whose representatives are very particular and have their consecrat? ed plats of ground where only "saints" can be buried. The officers of the church were arrested by Constable Wertz last Friday. They came in Monday to sub? mit to an investigation. They were defended by David Johnson, jr., R. K. Carson, and A. E. Moore, represented the State. After bearing all the evidence and argument Mr. Kirby dismissed the case, being satisfied that the church officers had not transcended their rights and that there was no intent on their part to injure the deceased or his friends. ?
