THE UPPER CLAbt?EiS.
WHAT HARD TIMES TEACH THOSE

What the Pli?o^pfcr of Wealth Shocld
?laired of thee,-Luke xii, 20.
In the Greek Testament this utter
ance is found, "This night they Trill
ask of thee thy soul?'* It reads as
though the haman race and nature were
the persons who would come to the
sich man and ask for his final account.
Our translation intimates that God asks
for this account from the boasting man,
ont in the early text itw&s some hid?
den persons who had a right to demand
*a settlement. The account ran far back
and took in those years in which -the
successful man had added wealth to
wealth and had been making great pic?
tures of future feasting: and all luxury.
The paseesure- of this, msioi innate win?
ter may help ns to se?^f the more
clearly the best philosophy of the up?
per class. What should have been and
should be the economy of the humbler
laborers is easily seen. They ought.to
economy-but the year that comes with
a leeson to the poor has its lesson also
for all who are above poverty. The fact
of being above the bondage of those.:,
who live only hy the wages of the day.
implies a life that has many leismr?;'
hoars and that possesses a largetm^na ;
in viricb/personal fitieir^jSayii^^
itself/ Thegreater the wealth of a cit?
izen the greater his 'arena of liberty.
The larger part of the world's learning
and education ia possessed |g| those who
have escaped the slavery ot living-only,
by the toil of the day. Education and
culture do often come to the man who
is indeed poor, bot the publie mass of
intelligence and menial power follows
the stream of property, lt costs some?
thing to secure mental development,
and therefore the development comes to
those who can pay the cost. Tbe moe ey
need not ho vast in bulk, for cuitare is
not high in price.
LESSONS OF LIFE.
For the ase oLthis educated and up?
per class ev ?ry year o? financial distress
comes wiri leesons of life-lessons
hidden by the rico foliage of success.
As rich masses of ivy often hide a grace?
ful arch pr a noble column, so years of
great snccess conceal the best philoso?
phy of educated men and women. ' *As
the tropica make living so simple that
nobody there is driven to any deep study
of soda! problems, so great success long
prevailing in the temperate zones makes
society prize its pleasure more than it
prizes truth and principle. Were it not
for night, the poets say .we should never
see any stars. Thus the great financial
clouds make visible many a principle'
which the noon of Success had conceal?
ed. It is in such night the voice comes,
"They are asking of thee thy seal."
We do not know who composed this
word?4they ** hut we feel the strange
power of the question.
Nearly allr* of tbe greatest living
minds have lived each day a few hours
of solitude. . It was necessary to get
away from society thai they might the
better measure it Thus close ?mes
make a solitude. They lead man fiom
the noisy palace to tibe secluded cabin
and there leave him to his thoughts.
The new scene ought not to be terrible;
it ought to be sweet and beautiful. The
man who composed "Ossian" knevr
well the worth of this hour of isolation,
. for in a good and long poem he asks
some hermit to invite him to his cave
that the tumultuous life of England'
and Scotland may pe far away;
Society is asking of each man his
soul. It does not want pim to say ;
Soul, thou hast much goods laid np for
many years; take thine ease; eat, drink
and he merry. It would much prefer
that the fortunate owner of a soul
> should be busy over a different kind-of
daybook and ledger.
Many millions will live simply in
these months-some, that they may live
> at all; others, that they may give much
to the poor. It ian happy day for man
when he is driven or led into simplicity.
It -is a law of all the arts never to do
more than is required; The classic
architecture is making its long journey
partly ty the help of simplicity. It bas
just the power, just the beauty, the cen?
turies and ages all love. Nobody cares
to add or subtract. It is the highly ex?
cessive that soon dies. In oratory and
literature few qualities are more fatal
than verbosity. AU the world says,
Why does the man use five words when
one will suffice? All the. great litera?
ture comes to us like the Greek col?
umn, with nothing one dares take
away. There are enough leaves on the
top of the Corinthian column, there is
just scroll enough on the Ionic. .Soin
great literature there are no words to
be erased, for all these men of genius
knew the eternal charm of simplicity.
THE USELESS LAID ASIDE.
A student and a lover of the Ameri?
can red man says that the squaws did
not make those great bead mantles for
the warriors to wear. No Indian would
attempt to run or walk with a half
hundred pounds of Deads and stuff on
his shoulders. Those wonderful fabrics
are made to sell to tho big eyed and
credulous white mail. Often tremendous
decorations are worn by a chief who H
not going to run or walk, hut only to
sit down. Society in ita high life thus
flings aside the useless, and when it is
out on a thousand year march it moves
in simplicity. It says to the soul:
Simplicity will be required of thee.
Nobody will wear your bushel of beads.
The same universe that requires a
?imple form of beauty asks man to live
upon simple food and drink. We may
wonder what objection nature had to j
rich and daily feastings. We may go so
far as to think nature very penurious j
that it should want the tables of earth j
set off with bread and water. But j
think what we please, nature has pass?
ed a decree from which there is no ap
peal. Han's table must be simple or
he will live miserably and die soon, j
What a blessed thing it would be 1
shc?lCI some stress o7 Tainncney inarki
compel us all to live on simple fare fe
. arc months I The buoyancy of the hear
and the lightness of foot, and the cole
on the cheek -would be quite a reveh
tion to the upper million. * Simplicit
in dining has become a kind of lost an
Many have forgotten what a partialit
nature has for alight meal. Could
mc>deraite calamity compel y?u all t
live lor six months-like a Scotch pea*
ant you would wonder ai last what ha
become of your diseases and sorrows.
That nation which beyond all other
studied the graces and the divinity of th
human mind and body and which lai?
the deep bases of " modern civilizado!
dreaded all overloading the body wit]
food and drink. The perfect man had ;
perfect, simple diet The question wa
never how much can I eat, but ho\
much ought I to eat? The Platonic an?
Socratic school made a simple diet th
companion and cause of the best men
tal power. The great Americans won
der how much; the great Greeks won
dered how little.
OPPORTUNITY FOR CULTURE.
That absence of money that will com
form of life will awaken the intellec
and make it go back to the long neg
lected book. What the table puts asid<
of luxury the book resumes. The sou
when educated and not oppressed bj
excessive foodw excessive work break
out in some form of joy. Excessive
work is almost as bad a foe as excessiv(
food or excessive drink. It is a slaved
burden. The !>ird can fly, but it can
; not carry *i.uch of a load. The barf
can sound sweetly, bot not if a bea vj
table or a heavy hand is resting upoi
i its'&rrngs. -Noah's dove brought ai
olive leaf, not a whole tree. Thoo tn*
mind, however highly educated, must
not "be loaded, heavily with food 01
SBrin? or work. When thus set fr?
'from bondage, it will break out in some
form of happiness. Its books, its music,
its art, its friendship and its religion
xviii all become pearls or gems. The
Creator made man for a long life, a
healthy life, a busy life, and a happy
life, and these terms exclude the
thought ox being an abject slave to any
thing. Labor must not break the heart.
Tho heart must find hours of rest and
change in the world's great variety.
When business is at a low ebb, then let
the mind and soul come to tho front.,
Let the slaves of business go free. A
pecuniary Ices may be a mental gain.
in agriculture a long drought which
ruins a harvest enriches the soul. a Tho
moisture being all drawn from the
.fields, the san's heat and light enter the
more deeply into all the vacant pores,
and the ground is all revitalized by the
sun's amazing chemistry.
In times of financial distress the dis?
eases of society are the more easily
studied, because they become more vis?
ible. With millions of the poorest
classes now prostrate, the student can
perceive the destructiveness of the sa?
loon, and of extravagance, and all the
improvidence of ignorance and vice. As
one must go to Molokai to see the lep?
rosy in all its terrors and repulsiveness,
go where the victims from many is?
lands have been gathered, so if one will
in the midst of an oppressive winter
move among the homeless and'food less
he will^see the diseases that take down
tile human body and the human mind ;
will see the sorrows that com e from the
imperfect state and the other sorrows
that come from tba individual alone;
will SOO that charity must join bread
and shelter to work. When men be?
come so degraded that they wculd rath?
er beg than work, it is high time for
the physicians tobe called in to act up?
on such disease. We must oifer work
to the well men and women, because
work is the law of health and honor.
Beggary from choice is a leprosy that
eats up the intellect and heart. Society
must create manhood, for in manhood
and Godhood society lives? moves and
has its being. -
NOT THE MAN, BUT HIS WORKS.
The upper class can easily mark now
its relation to civilization. It creates
and improves humanity. A republic
is composed of the thoughts and con?
duct of a vast throng of rational per?
sons. A despotism is a stats that is
created not by principles, but by the
mind of a person. Henry VHI behead?
ed a number of women. He was him?
self a complete outfit of law, judge and
executing. By degrees the thinking
people^roncluded that women or men
should be put to death only in obedi?
ence to some eternal principle of right
and evidence. Thus on the American
shore the peculiar person like Henry
Viii was excused from crown and
throne that some eternal principles
might reign in his stead. A person may
easily make mistakes or be a willful
transgressor. Even Lord Bacon was a j
mean man and a criminal. The state
must therefore repose not upon a man,
but upon ideas. Euclid, the geometer,
might have become a drunkard or a
thief, but his geometry could not be?
come intoxicated nor suffer any degra?
dation. Its definitions and propositions
were for all time. They were not the
ideas of Henry Viii, but of all human?
ity. Thus came the word republic*
"res publica"-a truth drawn from all
men of all times. The idiosyncrasies of
a Harrison or a Cleveland are rendered
harmless by the thought of the state.
The millions living and dead eclipse
the man.
The attar of roses is not much like
a rose. You can pluck the flower with
your band. You can note its delicate
leaves, colors and matchless grace, but
in the attar all this individuality is lost,
and yet into that costly essence whole
fields of blossoms betook themselves.
The scattered sweetness of wide acres
floated into a little china vase. As in j
the opening pages of "The Arabian j
Nights" there is a magic ball on a sea?
shore into which a great luminous
cloud, falling down from the sky, has?
tens and hides itself, thus the cloud of !
rose leaves, color and perfume passes
from the individual bloom into an es- j
sence and exchanges a field for a vase, j <
What the rose lacks afterward of indi- ! ;
vidualism it makes up in immortality.
As an individual rose it would soon i ?
fad?*. The autumn would smite it, the j ?
snow bury it, butin its vase-its heaven ] i
-^?? ever T?vls. Thus the state is the
holy vase, to which these living hnman
roses have tended and ought to tend.
The vast numbers that opened in 1776
and the myriads born of all the summer
times in the hundred years since then
have taken refuge in our nation, where
no storm nor winter can touch their
beauty.
NOT TO HIMSELF ALONE.
Thus the individuals make the pub?
lic, and beyond the public the state.
When the individual reads a good book,
he reads not for his own pleasure and
benefit alone, but; also for the welfare
of humanity. Humanity becomes grea t?
er when i% individuals ail read and
think. Thus each good thinker, each
good artist, colors his times. His fame
becomes the fame of his country, be?
cause from him the country has drawn
life and power. Education is not a
blessing to you only, but to your epoch.
It helps make the color of those gor?
geous clouds which in the morning and
evening' lie upon the horizon of the
country, i
Among the inspiring scenes of this
city in the year just closing is to be
placed hilf h that picture of men giving
millions of money for the public ad?
vancement inv taste ?nd knowledge.
Across the threshold of great colleges,
great libraries; a great institute of art
and a great museum of all arts and sci?
ences, millions of feet will pass in these
years and in those faraway. In the face
of financial distress this pouring out of
money has been perennial because hu- j
man need runs all the year through, i
The individual having only a brief life {
to iivecannot wait for the tide of trade
to rise to a flood height He must think
ail money ills temporary and humanity
lasting. Putting his hand to the plow?
he does not look back, but he looks for?
ward into that great field where the '
farrow is to be made and the fu- \
tare wheat is to blossom. Those men
Who have given $1,000, OOO*-^ch, or
$100,000 or $200,000 or $300,000 each,
could not wait for prosperous days to
come, because in each human heart are
the sounding words of Lincoln's poet:
The leaves of the oak and the wi How shall fade.
Lie scattered around or together be laid.
FOOTPRINTS OF MANKIND. ?
As noble citizens run on in advance
of their cemetry and discover and illus?
trate the principles which ought to be?
come laws, as the nation is only the
path wbich noble citizens have worn
with their li ving footsteps, sb our Chris?
tian religion ia in ade tip X)t the whole
volume of individual minds. What
the nation is to man as a social being
religion is to man as the child of a
God. The church did not make, it only
received. In these late years ideas de?
cline tn number because many of the
old notions were not elaborated from
human need or logic. They were not
the paths of mankind. They were
the scattered footprints of some man
who was wandering or lost. When one
comes upon such doctrines as these-re?
pentance, reform, righteousness, love,.
prayer, faith and hope-1 one finds no
simple footprints of a pope, or a secta?
rian, but the great avenues beaten down
by our race. At first, as in our Old
Testament, a few explorers ian on in
advance, these a Whole army followed.
Tribe joined tribe, nation nation, and
epoch added to epoch, until at last the
doctrines or paths were confessed to be
those of humanity. In the church, in
Christianity, these millions of individ?
uals are all stored away, their bones,
dust, their doctrines, everlasting.
Southeast of our city a few miles
there is an island on the land in the
level sea of grass. v Old currents which
once moved down from the north car?
rying rocks and vast masses of h?ls and
mountains of ice and stone pushed'up
this heap of earth and made it long and
wide and high. Trees, grass and flow?
ers cover it, but its hidden mass tells
the story of the old tumult. Thus the
noble doctrines of religion tell us how
the human flood ran and with what
power pressed upon the ideas that came
in its way. Repentance is made up of j
human tears; righteousness out of
honor; love out of the divinity in man;
prayer, faith and hope out of an endless
logic and experience.*
The more the individuals of our age
advance the more rich does religion be?
come in their presence. Did the mid?
dle ages see the value of education as we
see it? In l ater times fashionable women
did not desire to read or write. In In?
dia only a small minority of women
can read or write. Thus neither pagan?
ism nor Christianity cared much for
the intellect of woman or man. Our
greater age is pouring greater meaning
into religion. As political ideas fall
from the people into the state and
change the despotism of the twelfth cen- j
tury into the republic of the nineteenth,
thus new moral ideas are falling into
Christianity, making its old neglect
turn into an infinite love. Each, human
being who is now living an intelligent
Christian life, in full accord with the
mighty music of his age, is making j
new doctrines for his children. He need j
not speak aloud ; he need not possess
fame or seek it. He sinks into his cen- I
tury and helps compose it. The drops j
that make a rainbow are not conscious
of the arch they are weaving. They are
not seeking fame. They are only fall?
ing to the flowers through a sunbeam.
Thus the modern eon!, when living
well, simply, in wisdom like a philos?
opher, in love and virtue like a Christ,
falls through a sunbeam and helps
make a sublime picture on the massive |
state and church. Such a soul can any
day or night render its account. When
God and society require it, they do not
find it enlarging its barns for grain and
laying plans for larger vices; they find
it enlarging the institutions of human ?
welfare and deeply inspired by dreams
Df God's glory and man's blessedness.
The Coiffure.
There is good news. The stiff, heavy j
chignon and the bobbing ringlets of long j
ago are not to be reinstated during the j
coming season. Women have finally j
protested. The general effect of the I
coiffure will be loose, wavy and grace?
ful. Simplicity is to be the keynote of j
the everyday styles. For evening more j
elaborate coiffures are attempted, where j
puffs reign and every strand of hair ends ;
in a curl.-Exchange.
Another Railroad to be B
Into Columbia
j ?
? A Direct Air Line From the Tai
Valley R. R.
State Jan. 14.
! The one thing needed to make
I um bia the greatest railroad centre
the Sooth, aod make this city on
main line of the shortest possible n
from North to South, is about
transpire, and it will be a happy
for this city, which now seems t<
on the very eve of entering upon
long desired and long awaited era
prosperity.
i ? well authenticated report reac
; some prominent gentlemen in Col
bia last night that the new owner
the Cape Fear and Yadkin Ya
Railroad were now arranging to b
their road on from its present tel
j ons into Columbia, and would bc
the work at au early date Those \
j have information on the subject 1
are very reserved about talking a bou
beyond confirming the report.
At first blush the man who is
thoroughly acquainted with the
work of railroads leading towards
South from the Virginia border, wo
"not see mach io the annooncem
: that this road'was going to build i
Columbia, to cause great delight. ]
it simply means that if this road
built to this point au air line will
established that will annihilate
much distance in the line from No
to Sooth as did the Sooth Bound rc
aod ?be extension of the Florida Ct
tral and. Peninsular road between t
city and Savannah, and Savannah a
Jackson ville respectively.
The important portion of the rc
runs from Smithfield, N. C., via Ft
I etteville, .N. C., crosses the Carol]
I Central, a portion of the Seaboard I
Line system, at Shoe Heel, just acn
the North Carolina Hoe, and runni
thence to the terminus at Bennet
ville, the whole making a direct air Iii
Now the proposed extension ?
continue on an air line from Bennet
ville to Columbia, passing thron
Marlboro, the southern portion of Ch
terfie ld or northern portion of Dar li o
ton counties, by Camden and theo
straight into Columbia-a dis tao
from Bennettaville to Colombia
scarcely more than ninety miles. ?
present it is well known that tbrouj
travel has to come around either 1
Greensboro and Charlottte, making
long detour, or else from Wi ?soo, I
! C., via the short cot to Florence ai
thence into Colombia via the Coa
Liue making another lengthy detoi
to get ioto Columbia. At present tl
through trains of the Coast Line sy
tem make a much greater detour
get Southern connections, going v
Charleston to get to Savannah. No
if this connecting link is put in, mil?
upon miles will be cut off by both tl
New Short Line and the Coast Lit
system. The road runs into Green
boro from Fayetteville, and at that poii
all R&D. through travel could I
diverted over the shorter line. The
again this road runs into Raleigh o
a direct line from Smithfield, an
through business could be thrown o
tbe R. & D. main line at' that poin
right on into the North.
With the Coast Line connectio
could be make at Wilson, and th
trains could be diverted for throng
business there, giving a much aborte
line provided the Coast Line peopl
take a shorter route from Columbi;
on dowo. By brioging the througl
trains by Columbia miles and mile
of travel could be savad. This is per
haps the secret of the extension o
this road from Bennettsville into Co
lumbia It is either that or the R. &
D. and F. C. & P. people intend t<
make their new short line shorter bj
many miles, and carry trains througl
from New York to Jacksonville and
other points in a much shorter time
thau the most vivid fancy every pic?
tured.
No matter which of these schemes
may be at the bottom of the. building
of this road into Columbia, this city
is bound to be made the finest rail?
road centre, to bc found, and a section
of the State heretofore undeveloped
will be developed to its fullest extent.
In any event too, the distance from
North LO South is certain to be great?
ly reduced, and every one in this State
will welcome the coming of the new
road with the happiest expectations

He Knows a Good Thing.
Once upon a time, as the story
tellers say, a workman fell from a
ladder, and lay stunned and speech?
less upon the pavement below.
Soon a crowd gathered around the
prostrate man, and one after another
suggested things to .be done which
as usual each one waited for some?
body else to do. Presently a man
pushed his way through the crowd,
and after looking at the unconscious
man, said, "left him up and pour a
stiff drink of whiskey down* him "
Instantly the heretofore unconscious
man opened his eyes, and looking
appreciatively at the speaker, ex?
claimed, "Now, that man knows
what's good for a fall." ?
The other day Rev. W. G. Starr,
pastor of the Washington Street
Methodist Episcopal Church, Peters?
burg, Va., in his Christmas sermon us?
ed this language : "I pity the man who
is not able to take a newspaper, for i t is
the duty of every citizen to read ?he
news of the day." Dr. Starr is said to i
be one of the most eloquent ministers
in the Southern Methodist Church1
and his eloquence is evidently
supplemented by a large amount of j
common sense.-Augusta Chronicle.
