No wind cati drive my bark astray.
Nor change the tide of destiny.
What matter if I stand atone?

And garner up its fruit of tears.

Av Woman's A sawer to a SUaM QoeetSoa.
Do yon know-yon have asked for tho costliest
thing
Ever made by the Hand above
A woman's heart, and a woman's life.
And a yeoman's wonderful love?
Do yon know yon have asked for this price?
less thing
A* a child might ask for a toy?
Demanding what others have died to win
With the reckless dash of a boy.
Von have written my lesson ?of duty ont.
Manlike yon have questioned me;
Now stand at xho bar of my woman's soul
Until I shall question thee.
Yon require year mutton shall always be hot,
Y our socks and your shirts shall he whole;
I-require your, heart shall he true as God's
stars;
And pore as bea von your soul
Ton inire a cook for your mutton and beef;
lire far grander a thing;
. . nsWess you're wanting for stockings
u^shirts
I look f?* a man and a king.
A king fer a beautiful realm called home.
And aman that the maker. God,
Shall leek upon as he did the first.
And say, **It is very good."
1 am fair and yoong, hat the rose will fade
From my soft yoong check one day;
"Will yon love mo then, 'mid the falling
leaves.
As you did 'mi d tho bloom of May?
ls your "heart aa ocean so strong and deep
I ruay launch my ali on its tide?
A loving woman finds heaven or hell
On the day she is made a bride.
1 require all things that arc grand and true,
Al^things that a man should be;
Tty ou give this ail I would stake my lile
To bo all you demand of me.
.If yon cannot do this, a laundress anieeok
Yon can hire with little to pay;
.But a woman's heart and a woman's lifts
-Aro not to bo won that way.

Chewing Gum.
A. Wrrfcspondent inquires whether the
*nre of'che?t7?Dg gam is really beneficial,
as pome persons have asserted.
The opinion has ooe plausible argu?
ment io 'its %ror. T&e saliva is ac
important digestive finid. On it de?
pends the digestion of ail starchy sub?
stances-bread, mush, potatoes and the
like. $t is for this reason that thor -
TJtgti mastication of such foods is nee
<essary in order that the saliva may be
daly mixed with their particles. For
the same reason it is better to eat bread
dry than to moisten it, and dry bread
is practically easier of digestion than
moah, which is often swollowed with?
out sufficient mastication.
Now, as the saliva is copiously se?
creted in gam-chewing, it might be
thought that the stomach would thus
be aided in the digestion of starchy food ;
but just here comes in another physical
fact, namely, that saliva loses its diges?
tive power very soon after entering the
stomach, being neutralized by the ac?
tion of the gastric juice.
1. The habit is unnatural. It meets
no normal need, as does the chewing of
the end by the cow and some other ani?
mais. Whatever is abnormal is pre?
sumptively injurious, even though we
may not be able to trace its effects. It
took a long time to find out that tobacco
?hewing caused one of the most fatal
diseases of the heart.
2. Every secretion of the body has
its natural limitation. Artificial stimu?
lation greatly beyond this point must be
hurtful. This is a general law. Gum
chewing stimulates the salivary glands
vastly beyond tho normal limit, and
the result must be injurious.
3. The constant swallowing of saliva
in a sort of churned state carries into
the stomach a large amount of air,
which becomes a source of discomfort
aod often of positive injary. It mnst
be remembered that air swallowed in
this way becomes greatly expanded by
internal heat.
4. Muscles are enlarged by use.
Witness the blacksmith's arm as com?
pared with that of the scholar. Wit?
ness also the enormous muscles of the
athlete. Now the normal cse of the
masseter muscles tends only to keep
them in proper working condition ; but
their overwork io gnm-cbewing mast
tend to their undae enlargement and
thus to the diffigaration of the face.

Dr. Griffin Going to Darling?
ton.
The many friends of Dr. P. E. Grif?
fin will be pleased to ' learo that he has
definitely decided to locate in Darling?

himself with the very latest ideas in
his progressive profession. He will re

present month, when, accompanied by
bis family, he will take np bis residence
in Darlington. As one of the most
distinguished physicians in the South,
and as one who was born and raised
in Darlington County, where the peo?
ple know him and love bim. Dr Grif?
fin will soon be in possession of a lucra?

Few people could, guessing ot? hand
ed, come within many million dollars
of the amount paid oat io pensions by
the National Government since July 1.
1861. The figures were, a few days
ago, made up at the pension office, and
here is the total footing : $1,284,716,
000. Just think, one billion, two
hundred and eighty four million, seven
ard sixteen thousand dollars. If this
rjoney was all in fifty dollar bills the
average man's life would not be long
enough to count it, not even if it ware
possible for him to work continuously
at the task._

A Bride's First Lesson.
A bride's first lesson is to respect the
extreme sensitiveness of ber husband,
who doesn't want people to know be bas
jost been married. Consequently she
will be wise if on her first journey she
assumes a gown that has seen wear ; if
she will forget to fool around in a star?
tled manner whenever her husband is
gone from her side, as it is not likely that
he is either goiog to be 3ost or stolen.
The next thing is not to kiss bim or
bold bis hand in public, or call him
"darling." Any womao can make
a man feel her love without making him
ridiculous.
Aoother thing for her to learn is,
when she is at a hotel, not to grow ooo?
fidentiai with the chambermaid, not to
give her a piece of weddiog cake and
tell her all about tbe marriage ceremo?
ny, and tell ber bow she looked. You
thiuk this is never done ? Ask at some
large hotel. And she shouldn't giggle
or look surprised when she gets a letter
from her mother addressed to her in her
married name. Men are particularly
sensitive creatures about some things,
and they are rather given to think a
womao don't want a name when she acts
in this way.-Ladies1 Horne Journal.
G?nois, Capital and Labor.
The poet Tennyson can take a worth?
less sheet of paper and by writing a
poem on it make it worth sixty five
thousand dollars. That's genius.
Vanderbilt can write a few words
on a sheet of paper and make it worth
five million dollars. That's oapital.
The United States oan take an ounce
and a quarter of gold and stamp upon it
an "eagle bird" and make it worth
twenty dollars. That's money.
The mach un ic can take the material
worth five dollars and make it into a
watch wortb one hundred dollars.
That's skill.
A lady can purchase a very comforta?
ble bouoet for three dollars and seventy
fi v? cents, but she prefers one that costs
twenty-seven dollars. That's foolish?
ness.
The merchants can take an article
Worth seventy five cents and sell it for
one dolllar. That's business.
The ditch digger works ten hours a
day and shovels three-or four tons of
earth for four dollars. That's labor.
The editor of this paper might write
a check for eight million dollars, bnt it
would not be wortb a nickle. That's
rough.-Exchange.
An Overdose.
The uncertain condition of legislation
in South Carolina relative to railroads
is having the effect that might easily be
anticipated. It is precisely tbe effect
it bas bad in other States under similar
circumstances. Railroad syndicates
have concluded that they have all the
railroads under construction now io
South Carolina that they desire "as
the uncertainty about legislation will
not encourage new construction in
this State for some time." That is un?
fortunate for thus far that State is about
at the top for 1891, in building new
roads. The Richmond and Danville
system is equally emphatic. It says :
' 'The outlook in the State of South
Carolina is now such that it is really
impossible to get the Richmond and
Danville people to even consider the
question of extending their mileage be?
yond the borders of the State,''
There is a lesson in this that ought
not to be lost upon reflecting people.

Heading Newspapers.
The following, clipped from the
Orangeburg Enterprise and Monitor,
is as true as preaebing:
In my meanderings along the high?
ways and by ways of our county, I find
to my surprise some household:* with?
out a newspaper. What a lamentable
fact indeed! A home without a paper
is a veritable solitude; a plaoe unknown
to geologist and tradition, where the
mocking bird refuses to sing and tbe
cherry notes of the nightingale are not
beard. 1 have found it to be the uni?
versal fact, without exception, that
those scholars of both sexes, and all
ages, who have bad access to newspa?
pers at borne, when compared to those
who have not, are better readers, ex?
celling in pronunciation, and conse?
quently read more Understandingly.
They are better spellers, and define
words with ease and accuracy. They
obtain a practical knowledge of geogra?
phy in almost half the time it requires
others, as the newspaper bas made them
familiar with the location of the most
important places, nations, their govern?
ments and doiugs on the globe. They
are better grammarians; for, having be?
come so familiar with every variety in
the newspaper, from the commonplace
advertisement to the finished and classi?
cal oration of the statesman, they more
readily comprehend the meaning of the
text, aod consequently analyze its con?
struction with accuracy.

Silk Culture.
Mrs. Z. P. Moses, of Sumter, has
sent The News and Courier several
beautiful samples of silk raised by ber
at her home in Sumter. This silk is
the product of the eighth year's crop
and is as fine a sp?cimen as can be
found anywhere.
In a note to the News and Courier
Mrs. Moses says that she bas raised
a quantity of silk cocoons for market,
and has enough to produce 120,000
silk worms next spring.
The breed raised is of a rich yellow
color known as ' Marches.'* She says
that the climate of this State is admira?
ble for silk culture, all the conditions
being favorable to the growth of the
trees needed by the worms. The soason
just ended.has been a short but very
successful one.-News and Courier.

What May be Patented.
The Washington Chronicle gives the
gist of our patent ??ws in the fewest pos?
sible words as follows:
A United States patent will be grant?
ed to any person who has invented or
discovered any new and useful art, ma?
chine, manufacture, or improvement
thereof, not known or nsed by others in
th is conn try, and not patented or de?
scribed in any printed publication in
this or any other country, before his
discovery or invention thereof, and in
public use nor on sale for more than
two years prior to his application,
I unless the same is proved to have been
abandoned.
j In this connection the word "art"
j means the process or method of produe
I ing an old or new result. If a method
! of doing anything contains one or more
i new steps, the process is new and pat
j entable.
The word "machine" means any
! device or thing by means of which a
I meobancal result may be produced,
such as a pin, a churn, or a locomotive.
The word "manufacture" means a
made-up artiole, such as furniture,
clothing, harnees, and the thousands of
things which are offered for sale.
''Composition of matter" means a
chemical compound of ingredients, such
as hard rubber, liquid glue, medicine,
etc
Patents may be obtained for designs
for manufactures and works of art, for
three, seven, and ten years.
Trade-marks may be registered for
any arbitrary sign or symbol whioh is
not descriptive; the government fee is
$25. Such marks are the exclusive
property of the registrar for thirty
years, and the time may be extended.
A "label" is any descriptive tag.
print, or impression to be placed upon
any article or its case, and it may be
registered for twenty-eight years. The
government fee for a 'Maher' is $6; but
if it contains any special mark or sym?
bol, the office decides it to be a "trade
mark" instead of a label.

What is sanitary science about
which so much is written ? It is a sci?
ence that deals with the earth around
you, with your homes, your safety, your
happiness, your very life. The Sanita?
ry News says this, and we commend it
to all thoughtful, considerate readers.
"We can live on the earth or under
the heavens without knowing muob
about them, but to live best in our
homes we must know them well. Geol?
ogy cannot change the conditions of
the earth beneath us, astronomy those
of the heavens above us, but sanitary
science can change from unhealthy to
healthy the condition of the homes we
live in. Is it not then a science worthy
of study ? It touches the highest inter?
est of mankind, cleanses and purifies
the present generation, and will
strengthen and wilt glorify posterity.
The effects of obedience to its laws are
not remote but immediate. They touch
the everyday life of all and enter into
all the relations of life."
The simple !aws of health neglected
is just what oauses so much disease, so
much suffering, so great mortality.
