The severe criticisms of the Till- j maus is making sympathy for them. Ez-Gov. McSweeney and family havo returned to their home at Hampton. Mr. J. H.

A bill 1ms beeu introduced in the Legislature to place tele graph and telephone lines un der the supervision of the Rail road Commissioners. The Legislature is getting down to business. Chicken lighting is going to be prohibited and dyna miting the finny tribe will no longer be tolerated. Hon. C. A. Woods of Marion has been chosen as the successor of Mr. Pope as Associate Jnstice. The last vote Wednesday was Woods 87; Aldrich G7. The child-labor question having talked to death by the news papers before the Legislature met, this body will likely let the newspapers settle it to suit themselves. The noted trial of Mr. Utley for tho killing of Mr. Hollingsworth at Fayetteville last week resulted in conviction of Utley in second degree-sentence 20 years. As a result of infection from the dissection of a cadever, two stud ents of the North Carolina medical college at Davidson are in a critical condition, and their deaths are ex pected momentarily.

But when ?sos prices which had sufficed to yield 45 per cent on a watered capital, tho popular eimeo of de cency and fairness ia outraged. ?Springfield Republican. Lotter From Gastonia. Editor Marlboro Democrat, Dear Sir:-After, traveling over Marlboro county and surveying its fertile fields, and to note tho pros pect for another crop, I am aston ished. ' The farmers in your coun ty aro already preparing their lands, outtiug stalks and going ahead. NQ wonder Marlboro is considered tho garden spot of tho old Palmetto State, rtell you after seeing your county aud coming here it looks like the people in this country would perish. There is nothing doing towards farming at all, and how tho farmers mako a living is more than I can see. Tho land is fertile enough, but it is only a patch here aud there. But, Gastonia is a fine business place. It'has about ten factories and between live and six thousand inhabitants. ? I find some beautiful store buildings here. I also find Mr. P. C. Snyder here. He is a former merchant of Gibson, N. C. Mr. Snyder carries one of the largest stock of goo'ls in this place, and he is doing a fine business and is much liked herc. Mr. liando!ph Odom, one of Marlboro's best men, is here en gaged in tho oil-mill business. Mr. Odom is a fine, hustling salesman, and his wife, Nee Miss Lena Smith is head sales-lady at J. F. Yeager's Ladies Store. Mrs. Odom is one of the finest sales-ladies und stock keepers we have ever seen south. Mrs. Odom is from one of the old est, wealthiest, and most aristocratic families old Spartauburg, S. C., ever had. Mr. Editor I have told you about all I have seen since I left Marlboro, except the pretty girls, and the streets are fail of them, going to and from Sunday School -as the Main St. M. E., has theirs in the evening. I would like to tell yau who the prettiest here is, but I know she would not like it. But, she is the prettiest, most grace ful, and iu fact, the most charming girl I have ever seen. Her father is a Marlboro mau and her mother is a Spartanburg lady. I hope you will pardon me for writing this but I have nothing better to do than to express myself to you sitting around a boarding house, Sunday afternoon. Jan 18. 03. DRUMMER. Gastonia, N. C. Advice to Tired Women.

CC ll ^j&citt she will bathe face and neck iii warm water, and in case of un usual fatigue, especially warm applications will be placed at the back of the neck for a few moments. The tired lines should next be smoothed out deftly, skin food should next be ap plied and then away to a dark ened room for twenty minutes of complete rest. This simple procedure is so inexpensive and so easily managed that it will never be popular; but facts show that nany women have been won derfully beneiitted by the rest when it is needed rather than after all the work and hurry and bustle are over. The Mirror of Lite. We all of us live in glass houses Only the gla?s is not transparent ; it is silvered, rather, and all about us are reflections of ourselves. We jannot always see ourselves as oth ers see us, but wo can always see mrselves as we see others. Every luman being has something to ell us about ourselves. This nan's weakness shows us where mr danger lies. This other's genius for art or poetry wakens jur hearts, and we say, "I too ;ould be a painter, or a poet." So ho proverb says, ''As in water ace an8wereth to face, so the mart of man to man." This is why ii8tory is the most interesting and nography the moat influential eading. And this is why God lerfected his love to UM in that io sent his word, not only in tab es of stone, not only in written aws, but finally and supremely n the life of Jesii3 Christ, that ve, seeing him, might say, 'This 3 the life I was meant to liavo, the :ind of manhood mine was mean t o bo." So "we nil. . . . beholding .s in a mirror the glory of the .?ord, are transformed into the ;lory of the Lord, are transformed nto the same image from glory to ;lory. "I don't feel sorry for the mis uided workman who were th row ag in money last summer to holp ho strikers only to find now that heir folly is coating them many ollars and much hardship to heir families. John Mitchel ousted that he had got more mon y from tho poor people ol New ork than from any one else.

Any way whou sho found herself In posses sion of tho'sum abo pot about to seo what Bbc could do with it. Certain amiable friends told ber lt would bo verjr nice to buy Bonio now dresses, hats, gloves, shoes -and such. But sho had a full assortment and didn't require nnythlng of tho sort An mint told her to luvest lt in a certain; tulegrnph Btock that would bring in good interest. "But I want my hundred dollurs nil to myself, you know." "Poor, foolish dear, it will all bo yours, just tho same. You can UBO tho Interest just thu same. I know where you cnn draw-.Why, 0 per oent." "\Vh:at? That is only $0 a ycart Six dollars. is awfully small by the side of this. I'm going to count lt nguiu. Muybo some of Jt ls gone." The very thought of such a thing mado the little creature chatter. L'or the tenth time that day she sat down and. counted the talismanic roll of bills four twenties, one ten' nud two Aves. It was all right, and her pulse ro sumcd Its normal bent. Suddenly she gave n little shriek of delight and Jumped up nnd cried: * "I know j nut what I shall dot I'll get lt-busted. I think that's what they call" "Child, whatmrc you talking about?" "Talking about finance,' auntie. I'm going to mnko this Btlngy little roll Into a big ono. It. doesn't show off nt nil." "You are queer, dear." "I'm going to get it nil in Ovo dollar .bills. I think the pictures on thc fives aro ever so much prettier." Life seemed more rosy nfter the delightful creature possessed twenty nice, crisp Overs. Sho counted nnd recounted them when an other fancy'came. "I'm tired looking nt theso common bills. They don't Jingle nnd ring. I'm going to get live nice, clean, new twen ty dollar goldpleees." No sooner was it said than done. The table rang for two days ns she tossed the bright yel low pieces about like jack stones. Even then she WOBn't quite happy. Tho lit tle pile of twenty dollar yellow boyB looked so small. Then she scouted about nnd got together 100 silver dol lars. She polished every one dally and played with them. Next she got 200 fifty cent pi?ces. But life was still an aching void. She nt hist owned $100 in twenty-five cent coins. Surely she must he satisfied now. But, no; she broke Into one of the quarters, felt dis couraged nfter that and was quito un like her old self until she found ono little nickel left, the very last coln of the hundred dollars that had caused her so much trouble. - Philadelphia Ledger. Snakes. There exists muong many persons n belief that snakes are creatures of more or less defective ' organization. Deprived of legs and reduced to effect their movements by sinuous windings of their elongated bodies und ta 11K, they have nh appearance of helplessness which may by itself excite compassion.
