A MONUMENT TO SLAVES.
Tribute to Their Fldelltj by Min
Solarl, a Southern Woman.
In the hearts of the mighty fallon ls
deep rooted tho feeling of inextin?
guishable gratitude to thc loyal slaves
to whose care the women and children
were intrusted daring the entire period
of the wnr between tbe states, lt is n
sentiment that still remains ?moldering
In the souls of those who owned them.
To those slaves who watched the tire
side, tilled the soil, helped spin, weave
nnd make raiment for the master and
his son on tbe battlefield to those
slaves who protected and provided for
the families nt home is due a monu?
ment tbat will tell the story to coming
generations tbat cannot be taugbl the
lesson of self Mcrlflce and devotion
of tbe slave In any other way. If a
time is ever ripe for a noble deed, now 1
ls that time, for the grand, courteous I
southern slave owner is fast passing 1
away, aud to erect Uie monument '
would be to hand down to posterity an i '
open book in which our southern ehil- I 1
dren can learn that every negro is no '
"black fiend." The north would not I
understand tbe sentiment. Of course '
not.
Erecting this monument would iuliu- ' '
ence for good tbe present and coining J
generations and prove that the people
of the south who owned slaves valued
nnd respected tin lr good qualities as
no one else ever did or will do. Tt
would bespeak the real conception of ( .
the affection of the owner toward the
slave and refute tbe slanders and *
falsehoods published In "Uncle Tom's *
Cabin." ,
There did exist In the days of trial i
and hardship uot only a perfect under?
standing, but the kindest sympathy,
and in thousands of plantations and
homes where every white male on the
place able to bear arms would ko to
tlie battlefield the helpless families of
women aud children were left entirely ,
to the care and protection of the trust?
ed slaves. .
No one who was rocked to sleep by
the sweet lullaby of the faithful black
"mammy." listened to her weird ghost
stories, nursed at her breast or played
about her cabin door would ever be
willing to have these tender me: 'orles
die out. There is the side of sentiment,
the ?lde of gratitude, that those who
have felt the touch can never jive np
nor can they forget the debt due the
faithful "10 per cent of slaves that re?
mained with their masters after free?
dom."
Erect tbe monument, lt will result
In much Rood, as it will tell future
generations that the white men of the
south were tlie negro's best friends
then and that the men of the south
are thc negro's best friends today.
Instances portraying the fidelity of
the slaves might be told to till endless
volumes and would recite the sweetest
stories of heartfelt devotion, tl*
unselfish acts, prompted by pure love;
self forgetting, they would sacrifice
comfort?yea, even go hungry?nnd
witb a smile serve those to whom they
felt an undying fealty. They could not
express all they felt, but for mammy's
"girl" or "boy" tbey could work and
suffer and teach a blessed lesson of
endurance and glorified fortitude, for,
as Miss Dromgoole so sweetly ex?
presses it:
Her face 13 as black as ebon,
Wrinkled -and seamed and old.
But her heart, I know, is as white as
snow
And true as the rarest gold.
Her brown hands, old and feeble
With the touch of passing years.
Would banish each trace of care from my
lace
And brush from my heart the tears.
Mammy and friend, 1 loved her,
Humble and all unfamed,
But I love to trace in her love the face
That robber years have claimed.
Her face is as black as ebon,
Her soul as fair as the day,
And her prayers, 1 know, wherever I bo
Will follow me all the way.

Division is not a bad thing in itself.
All living things grow by division.
Churches, live churches, follow tlie
same law, but the simple division of the
cell into two equal, similar and inde?
pendent cells is confined to the lowest
branch of the animal and vegetable
kingdoms. It is ia church history as
lt is in natural history. When we find
on opposite sides of the road two little
white churches exactly alike, except
that the steeple is on the north end
of one and on the south end of the
other, we know it belongs to the proto?
zoan period of ecclesiastical develop?
ment. We have outgrown the stage
of the multiplication of churches by the
primitive processes of splitting, seces
sion and recession. Even In Scotland,
where the process was formerly most
active until a church was reduced to
"me aud Sandy" with doubts as to
the latter's orthodoxy the title bas
turned and the churches are reunit?
ing.?Century.
Value ot the 'Weather Man.
In spite of the standing Jokes about
the weather man it is probable that for
every dollar spent on the weather
bureau ten are saved. At tbe
time of the Mississippi Hood of 1MI7
$15,000,000 worth of live stock and
other property were saved as a result
of warnings Issued s week ahead, sin
nals displayed for a single hurricane
have detained tn port vessels valued.
with their cargoes, at g20,000,000. Tbe
West Indian stations, established in
1898, inform us of hurricanes as soon
as they begin. The course of the hur?
ricane tbat caused the Galveston flood
was charted for a week bet or*- it struck
our shores-for hurricanes move slow?
ly. Eighty-five per cent of the fore?
casts now- come true, nnd by the aid
of rural free delivery 25,000,000 fore?
cast cards were distributed last year
to farmers, many of whom could not

THREE JURORS CURED
of Cholera riorbus with one small
Bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
Mr. G. W. Fowler of Hightower,
Ala,, relates an experience lie had
while serving on a petit jury in a
murder case at Edwardsville, count v
seat of Clebourne county, Alabama
He says: While there I ale some fresi
meat and some souse meat and il
gave me cholera morbus in a ven
severe form. I was never more sic!
in my life and sent to tbe drug sturt
for a certain cholera mixture, bul
the druggist sent me a bottle of Cham
berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy instead, saying that lie ha(
what I sent for, but that this modi
cine was so much better he wonk
rather send it to me in the fi\ 1 wa
in. I took one dose of it and wa
better in five minutes. The se-con
dose cured me entirely. Two fellov
jurors were afllieud in the sam
manner and one twenty-five cen
bottle cured the three of us." Fo

A TALE OF TWO SCOUTS.
Sarro*?T Kncape Fiflin a Rattler aud
a Hu ml of Indian*.
lu Cyrus Townsend Brady's "Indian
Fights and Fighters" ls a tale of two
scouts, Trudeau and Stillwell, who
carried to General Carpenter through
an Indian Infested country the news
that Major Forsyth was being besieged
in the sands of Beecher's Island by a
thousand warriors. Here ls one Inci?
dent of their journey:
"During this day a large party of
scouting Indians halted within 100 feet
of the wallow whore tbe scouts were
hiding. Simultaneously with their ar?
rival u wanderiug rattlesnake made its
appearance in front of the two scouts,
who were bugglug the earth aud ex?
pecting every minute to bc discovered.
"In his way the rattlesnake was as
deadly as tbe Indian. Tlie scouts
could have killed him easily bad lt not
been for the proximity of tbe Chey?
ennes. To make tbe slightest move?
ment would call attention to their bid?
ing place. Indeed, tlie sinister rattle
of the venomous snake before he struck
would probably attract the notice of
the alert Indians. Between the sav?
age reptile and the savage men the
scouts were in a frightful predicament,
which young Stillwell, a lad of amaz?
ing resources, instantly and effectually
solved.
"He was chewing tobacco at tbe
time, and as the snake drew near him
and made ready to strike Stillwell
completely routed him by spitting to?
bacco juice in his mouth and eyes and
all over his head. The rattlesnake fled.
He could not stand such a dose. Tbe
Indians presently moved on, having
noticed nothing, and so ended perhaps
the most terrible half hour .the two
men had ever experienced.**
To Scare Away Crows.
I can give a sure preventive against
corn pulling by tlie black rogues. I
had tried all sorts of devices and was
rigging a scarecrow, when a gawky
came along nnd said, "Tie ears of com
to the tops of poles around your field,
and the crows won't stay nigh it."
I said, "Tliey will eat the corn, and
you and tbey will both laugh at me."
I tried tlie plan, however, and sure
enough they looked at those poles and
went away and stayed away. I sup
pose lt was on tbe same principle ai

"I most fear the Greeks when offering
gifts."-E. P. Powell in Suburban Life

OBESITY A DISEASE.
Vigorous Measures For Ita Removal
Should He Taken.
At middle age certain organs lose
functional activity and shrink and
waste away, demanding less blood and
nerve energy. This decreased need for
nutrition, If not heeded, will result In
taking Into the body more food than
can be oxidized and used either to
build up tissue or for the generation of
heat and energy. Tlie result ls kid?
neys, liver and other excretory organs
are overworked la the effort to remove
the body wastes and become diseased,
lays ? writer In the Housekeeper. Then
nature stores up this foul material In
the form of fat lu ull tiie lymph spaces,
between the fibers of the muscles and 1
lu every other odd corner lu the body
where lt can be stowed away, lu time
this lifeless, useless structure of fat
crowds out muscle, gland aud other
normal tissue? aud takes their place.
Tills is what ls known ns fatty degen?
eration and always shortens life, end?
ing often In sudden death from heart'
failure, apoplexy, diabetes or kidney
disorders.
The prevention of oln'sity means reg?
ulation of diet, especially in middle life
and wheu changing from an active out
of door occupation to u sedeutary in?
door life. Often the amount of food
Should be cut down from ouo-fourth to
one half, especially avoiding fats and
sweets, also soft foods, which tend to
gormandising from deficient mastica?
tion and too hasty eating. No wine,
beer or alcoholic drink or tea or coffee
should he used. At meals even the use
of water should be restricted. Exer?
cise should be taken In the open air
and deep breathing practiced to In?
crease the Intake of oxygen and burn
up and oxidize bodily toxic matter.
For those women who are overstout,
yet retain a fair amount of physical
vigor, the day should begin with a cold
bath, plunge, spray, cold towel rub or
sponge bath, after which should be tak?
en active exercise in the form of work,
either in the open air or In a well ven?
tilated room, horseback riding, bicy?
cling or a brisk walk for an hour or
more. Exercise lu a well ventilated
gymnasium may be substituted for the
out of door, but ls not so effective and
Invigorating.

Fresh Fruit.
"Gold In tbe morning, silver at noon
and lead at night" ls always used with
reference to fruit. Most people think lt
means that the explanation of the prov?
erb is that digestion ls strongest in the
morning and weakens as tbe day goes
on. But you will note that the proverb
refers to fruit alone. If lt has to do
with tbe digestive power only lt should
be applied to all foods. The real expla?
nation ls very different. It ls that fruit
freshly gathered ls fitted for eating and
lessens In value ns the hours pass. That
ls true not of fruit only, but of all veg?
etables. That which comes direct from
the garden to the table ls the most pal?
