BILL ARF A.rp and His "Wife Sa tho Cheering < A tia nia Ct On our return trip from Florida we ran into tho Dewey reception at Sav annah. It had not occurred to us that this was any of our business, but at Waycross and .Icsup and all along tho line men and women were board ing the car like there was a carnival on hand ami by the time we arrived wc could hardly get into the depot for the peoplo. In thc course <T lime we got thc leavings of a dinner and took a car for thc Central depot, which was to bc our headquarters until p. m. Kiora there wc radiated down toward the DeSoto, following ibo crowds that were gravitating that way. Seeing how they were massing on the broad sidewalk just opposite the hotel my wife said: "Let us stop here hy this telegraph polo." lt was afort?nate selection for with thc big pole behind her and thc curbstone before her she couldcnt bc crowded to any extent. In half an hour the crowd was im mense and would have moved her from her moorings but for thc ?ade. I braced her on ono side with two solid feet and a firm corporosity. Expan sion was tho word and I expanded. All sorts and sizes and colors swarm ed around us, but my wife stood solid to her post. Another half hour pass ed, but still there was no Dowey sign and I began to feel a little tired in my legs and to draw a long breath once or twice in a while. Sometimes I would bend one knee a little for a rest and then change to the other. The street was kept clear by the mounted police, so that the military could have distance to march in platoons, hut the military did not appear. Another hall' hour passed and we heard the solemn heals of a ?iruni far away, so I braced up my knees for another effort. In the meantime line carriages adorn ed with flags and bunting and beauti ful ladies and swell gentlemen passed aud repassed, but no soldiers. 1 was nearly ready to drop to the marble flagstone on which we stood, hut my wife stood as firm to thc telegraph pole as Cassabianca did to the mast. About this time a little heathen Chinee ap peared at thc big plate glass bay win dow and thc small boys cheered him, for ho was Dewey's pet that bc brought from Manila-a lad about twelve years old and as good looking as a Chinee ever gets to bc. My wife said that was a sign, a forerunner, and sure enough Mrs. Dewey soon appearcd'and parted the lacs curtain and gazed upon the crowd and smiled. I was not looking that way and my wife nudged mc with her elbow and said there she is, but she had disappeared and I saw another lady in anotherwindow drink ing a oup of toa, and remarked she is older than I thought she was ?nd more thirsty, and was then informed that I was looking at the wrong win dow. Still there was no sign that the show was going to begin and I drew another long breath and sighed. "Can't you stand it a little longer?" said she. "I am almost dead," said I. "I would give $10 to be out of thia and sit down somewhere." It was then 5 o'clock and we had stood there three < solid hours. My wife endeavored to , distract my attention from myself to thu flags and to the small boys who ? had climbed to the copings of the ' windows and up in tho trees, but I ; fell like I was at a funeral and T was the corpse in thc coffin. At last, at last, Mrs. Dewey came again to the window and removed the lace curtain and tho Admiral came with her and waved his hand to thc outside multi tude, and everybody shouted. The important crisis wbioh were to have arriven had arroven. There was the great Admiral in full regalia and there was his wife, radiant and smiling dressed in a silver satin waist that was modestly low cut in thc breast works, and my wife could Bee dia monds sparkling and jewels shining from her hair to her waist, but I couldcut, for the window was not raised and all that we saw was through a glass darkly, and my eyes were never shined much by diamonds. The Ad miral was sick and thc doctors said thc air must not blow on him. About this time the thrilling notes of thc brass band came over the cast wind and cheered tho multitudo and my wife nudged me again and said, 'Taent that beautiful?" "Tolerable," said I, for my knees were in a tremble and I was considering how T could stand up any longer. I had not realized tho difference in our ages until then, nor how it was possible for her to out stand me, but she never faltered for a moment, nor complained of auything. She came there to see and she saw. Well, the military followed the band, and that took another half an hour, for there were thirty companies, X including infantry and thc marines and the cadets aud the artillery and the cavalry and so forth. I suppose the artillery aro the fellows what made the/punch that made tho Admiral so sick. The .artillery was drawn by the ; S LETTER. ,w Dewey and Heard 3t' the ^People. tnstitution. bigges! mules 1 over saw, and en each mule was a biir darkey and the guns were little long things about ns big as my arm-looked like toys com pared with thc guns we had in the Civil War. 1 still do not understand what they want with such big mules to pull such little 'guns. But at last, thc show was over ami my wife said she was willing to depart those coasts if it was possible to get away. As the grand parade ol' the military was gu ing on and thc brass hands were float ing music in the air she nudged me and said: "I feel just like shouting, don't yon .' ' Oh, my country. How we have lived together for over fifty years, and we are no more alike about some things than a mocking hird is to a buzzard, and I'm the buzzard. "Shouting," said I, "no, I feel more like i-'oing home and going to bcd. I wouldcut give 10 cents for the whole show with thc heathen Chinee throwed j in. I'm worn out standing on this cold, hard pavement. I won't get over it in a month." This world is all a llccting show for man's illusion given. Vanity of vanities saith thc preacher. Mut we did get away at last and I could hear my knee bones crack as I took the first few steps. When wo got around to the park Dewey's doc tors said he might take a short ride and so he and Mrs. Dewey passed us in a car.iago and wc had a good view of the loving couple, lie looked a little punched, hut she was as bright as Venus among the stars. Altogether it was a great .show and pleased my wife immensely. She says she would not have missed it for anything. And SK I am satisfied, for all's well that, ends well. We ar-.' at home again and ; :'.?i a glad wel come at'thu depot fruin children and grandchildren. 1 tell you that in our little circle my wife and I are of more consequence than Dowey and his wife and thc heathen Chime all com bined. Most Lovely Thing on Harth. Saui Jones, thc inimitable, whose quaintness of style is equaled only by the accuracy of his definitions anc de scriptions, gave in a recent sermon, the following beautiful story, in which he so charmingly portrayed the most lovely thing on earth. Wc do not re member to have seen anywhero a pret tier picture than this: "An angel was sent down from heaven one day to bring back thc most beautiful thing on earth. Ile hunted long aT,d carefully, saw a bed of full blown American Beauty rosos, lovely beyond comparison, and ho gathered an armful and started to return to his homo above. "As he poared into tho air he saw a baby's smile and, filled by a raptur ous admiration at the sight, returned to take it too. By its side he discov ered a mother's love, and with all three in his arms ho mounted to the j place beyond tho skies. ; "Just outside the pearly gates the spirit paused for a moment, and lo! the roses were withered and the baby's smile had vanished, but strong and faithful and serenely h. Hutiful as ever, > mother's love remained; and ho cast the other aside and took this and laid it at tho feet of his Master as the most lovely aod lasting thing on oarth."

The effect of labor saving machin- ? cry upon tho welfare and happiness of j mankind is the subject of much dis- ? cussion, and concerning it lhere are very wide differences in opinion. The discussion of this question is growing more general as well as more spirit ec*, and therefore thc recent re port of the commission appoiutcd sev eral years ago hy congress to investi gate the relative productive power of hand and machine labor will attract much attention. Some of the facts brought out iu this report and based on reliable evi dence are very impressive. lt is stated, for instance, that a thousand paper bags could formerly be made in sir. hours and thirty minutes by hand, they are now made in forty minutes with thc air of a machine. To rule IOU reams of paper on both sides by hand required I,SOU hours; with a ruling machine tho work is don?: in two hours and thirty minutes of one man's time. In shelling corn by hand thirty-six hours and forty minutes would be required to shell a quantity which can be handled by a machine in thirty-six minutes. A mowing machine cuts seven times as niue!; grass per hour as ono man can cut with a sythc. These examples might be extended indefinitely, but a more forceful illustration is found by considering thc total horse power ap plied to machines in this country and calculating how many men it would require to do tho same work. For such calculations thc census fig ures of 1K00 must be uned. One horse-power is equivalent to power of six men. Thus, if the work of 03,481 men in the flour mills of the I'nitcd States is supplemented with tho use of 752,805 horse-power, the power is equivalent to the work of .1,511,100 additional tuen. In other words, the power does seventy-one times as much work as tho employes. The ratio differs radically in different industries. The total horse-power used in the United States in 1800 was 0,000,000; equivalent to the work of ?50,000,000 men, while only 4,470,884 pi rsons wert- employed, the two kinds of power having a ratio nf S to 1. A force .d' UWI).OOH tren represents a population of 180,000,000, so that if the products ul' the manufacturing establishments were all made by hand it would r< quire a 'population ol' that size to do it, Jw i th none left for agri culture, trade, transportation, mining, forestry, the professions,"or any other occupations. A still more striking illustration is found in our transportation system. In 1H00 there w ere over 80,000 locomo tives in this country.? It would take 57,040,320 horses to do their work, or 347,425,020 men. i That labor-saving machinery is throwing more and more men and wo men out of employment every year cannot be denied, and there has sel dom been a time^when tho improve ment of machinery was progressing more rapidly: never a time when the rewards of the inventor of more pro ductive labor-saving machinery wero so large, so immediate and sure. These facts make tho question "What are we going to do about it?" one which is very difficult to answer. Thora is not the slightest prospect but that the use of labor-saving ma chinery will increase and extend to lines of labor whioh are not yet affect ed by it. How, the condition of the laboring masses, especially in densely popula ted countries, will be affected remains to be seen-Atlanta Journal. Does Loto of Good-You will Find it so if you Try lt.

Story of a Mother'? Lore. On thc train over the Atlantic Coast Line Saturday evening there was an , incident that ?hows that u mother's love is the same the world over, and is possessed of u strength that is beyond compare. When the train pulled up at Sumter a very neatly dressed white woman, apparently about 35 years old, came aboard the train in haste. She bad a little boy about seven years old with her-a pretty boy-and he looked as if he had been crying. The woman seemed nearly out of breath and very much excited. A passenger handed her a glass of water, which she drank. Then she leaned back and concealed the child as much as possible with her skirt and cloak, and seemed un easy until the train had started for Columbia. Then she told thc story of a moth er's love to the passengers about her. She was from Carterville. She said that when the child, tirst named Joe, afterwards changed to Charley, was a mere infant, she hud found that she was too poor to care for it, so she ad vertised in a paper and an aged couple at Sumter responded. She turned her child over to them. Hut she had found that she could not livo without her child; she was willing to work for it till she dropped, if she could only have it with her. She went to thc couple and told them this, but they were uuwilling to let her have her child again, so she smuggled the little one away, carried him to a colored woman's house just out of Sumter, and concealed him there until nearly train time. Then she made a rush for the depot and took thc train. She said she had a sister here at work in the Granby mills, und she had only enough money to pay her way herc. The passengers made up aopurse and gave it to her and saw that she got a carriage and started for the mill village when the train arrived here. On the way up the mother repeated ly asked thc little boy: "Don't you know mc, Charley; don't you know your own mother? ' Ile would draw away and asked her to '"take him home to-morrow." Sim tried time and again to coax tho child to show some sign of recognition, hut it could not. She declared time and again that she would give up her life before she would part with her regained child. The names of all the parties are in the possession of thc State, but they are not neecessary to the completeness of this incident of a railroad car. The State, Marek 20. The Best in the World.

There is not the slightest doubt that tho doctora do more harm than good in treating Contagious Blood Poison; many victims ox this loathsome disease would bs much bette? off to-day if they had never allowed th?m selveB to bo doted on mercury and p?ta?ht the only remedies whioh the doctora evergive'for blood poison. Tho doctors are wholly nuable to get rid this vile poison, and only attempt to heal up the outward appearance o? t disea80-the sores and eruptions. This they do by driving the poison into Ott system, and endeavor to keep it shut in with their constant doses of potash and mercury. The mouth and throat and other delicate parta then break out into sores, and the fight is continued indefinitely, tho drugs doing the system morn damage than the disease itself. Mr. II. 1?. Myers, 100 Mulberry St.,Newark, N". J., says: "I had spent a hundred dollars with the doctors, when I realize'! that they could do rn? no ennd.

I was soon cured perfectly and my skin has been as clear as glass ever since. I cured my self at home, after the doctors had failed completely."
