The Carolina Spartan, 1894-05-16

Bara Adger, in the Augusta Chroni* ele, gives utterance to her "Tale of Woe" in the following words: Will somebody tell me what should a girl do, When three or four fellows come often to woo; She rmn't marry two. she can t marry three TTta Id a atrrnmoa. O wbMi shall It be? Sometimes I like Harry, sometimes I like Fred And sometimes 1 feel that I dearly love Ned; Hut bow to lose Willie I really can't see, And then my heart murmurs, "O which shall It be?" I know that with Johnny I really cau't part And to see Tom go would nlch break my heart. If any must leave me It sure can't be he, O somebody help me, which shall It be? Many a maiden of eighteen summers has often felt that blisssful, beatific be wilderment and they have really believed that all they have to do is to touch and take. It is a blaued time and it can be enjoyed only once- Like the down of the fairest butter fly's wing, the dew that sparkles in myriads of pearl drops on the graceful grass, the roseate hues that make the eastern sky resplendent at early dawn, this estatic joy soon passes away. One of these days Sara will be older. If she contln-' ues to hesitate, one by one her young friends will find other "sixteeners." The years will glide by. Harry will marry the other girl, and Willie will settle down into dignified bachelor hood. Sara will find that her beautiful brown hair is getting a little mxed with another color, because it "runs in our family to tarn gray when quite young." The poetry will be knocked out of her maiden meditations and her lament will run thus: Will any on* tell me what and old girl can do When gay, handsome young beaux refuse to woo? She cant marry even one, unless he proposes,? I'm In a dilemma and my bed Is not roses. Often I long for Harry and Willie and Fred And think I could be happy even with old Ned, But to lose them all-ah sorrowful day,? Hearea avert such a sad fate, I pray.

Etid at early la the Mtkoi u March, | it was bright and warm, and often the girls were seen climbing this mountain I in Search of flowers, and eoming back from these walks with their arms fall of the beantifol trailing arbutus, which grows In great abnndanee over all oar Southern mountains. There are sevtffcty pupils and three teachers Cere now. On the 1st day of May the school gave an entertainment, ealled the "Ma? Pole Dance." Twenty-four beautiful girls, dancing around the May Pole, plaited the ribbons beautifully. The lovely Qaeen seated on her gorgeous throne, made of evergreens, ferns and flowers, attended by four maids of Honor and a guard of eight, was a sight lovely to behold, while the rest of the school made the hills eoho with beautiful music, to which all kept time. It was a pleasant occasion and a time long to be remembered by all who were present. On Saturday night, the 5th Inst., a "Tackey party" was given, which was a grand success. Most of the girls exerted themselves to see who eoald be the tackiest, and some very redieulous costumes were presented. A prize of a transparent cake of soap, tied with a blue ribbon, was offered by Miss Flora Johnson and was won by Miss Louise Colman, who was pronounced by the judges as the tackiest of the erowd. Three cheers for the "Tackey party." Rev. Mr. Hampton preaches to us occasionally. Twioe every month we go to Pisgab, an 1 R. P. ehureh about two miles from here, of which Rev. Mr. Galloway is pastor. He is a good preacher and a noble man. We have a young ladies' prayer meet ing in the Seminary which is conducts! hv the srlrls. It has a good influ -

professions pay very little heed, and when next called to visit a diphtheritic patient, blistered his chest. There most of the deposits showed themselves, aud the patient speedily recovered " At the that the above appeared?lsal ?oar literature on diphtheria was not only brief, bat highly contradictory. I had eome to theconclasion that the decease was a specific poison Involving the entire system, and not a local disorder; that the characteristic exudations appeared in the throat, not because it was any part of its morbid law to do so, bat becansethe thinness of the lining of the throat afforded the most favorable place for external manifestation; and not only the most favorable, bat the mcst dangerous, especially with young children. I had seen unmistakable diphtheritic deposits in fresh wounds on various parts of the body, and in the female genital tract, and had ask myself the question: Is it possible to bring this poison to the surface, on some part of the body, where it can be more directly and successfully combated than in the throat? I found by cautions experimenting that I could not udrive it oat" by internal medication. Then I decided to try blisters on the upper part of the ohest, though up to that time I had never seen sneh treatment ^advised. I was soon called to a neighborhood where diphtheria In a malignant form was raging; there had been several deaths, and some twenty children were then suffering from the dread disorder. The physician who had charge of the fatal cases had given up in despair and vacated the field. In the first house to which I was called there were four cases, the youngest, a

* taint7 " Fob! Whathypocrisy 1 Glad?" when he had a circular issued to every 1 trial Justice in the State to prevent the 1 making of a o&ae to test the law; when he ten days ago made the Florence trial jostice discharge a prisoner in order to prevent jast such habeas corpus proceedings as have resulted in this decision; when the only way a determination has been secured was by having an arrest made by the mayor of Florence, who would not be stopped by his authority? The Governor becomes the role of the heavy villian better than that of sniveling hypocrite! "My proclamation" (assuming control of the police of the cities) was only of force until the dispensary law was declared off. That law being no longer law, I have no longer power to enforce it.*1 That is what Governor Tillman sa{d yesterday. It is utterly untrue His proclamation had no warrant In, or dependence upon the dispensary act; it was issuep by authority of the Ku Klnz statutes, which remain unimpaired, on the books. It was not annulled by the dispensary decision. It has not been withdrawn by him, and it Is to-day of the same force and effect as it was the day he issued it. He may not wish to control the police of the cities to enforce prohibition; bathe has every jot as much authority to do so as he had to control them to enfore the dispensary law. His wriggling and pre* varieation are contemptible. Ex-Dispenser Floyd of Darlington, in an inservlew in the Charlotte Hews, says, "Even now 'he dispensers are getting $50 a mouth for looking after fha llnnnn \ftnv nannla drtn't know

of the past, though hoary with age and hedged about by legal phantasm of ''property considerations" and "inalienable rights" eannot obtain reverence from our American youth when they are linked with iniquity, as is the case with the liquor traffic, dive our boys and girls a chance, get their eonviotion, and faith, and courage firmly fixed, and they will sweep the abomination from the land in short order. lo the fight with the whiskey evil heretofore, two things have been lacking. All the Christian people have not been equally determined iu their oppo sltion to the evil, and there has not been that unification of forces that would bring success. This is rapidly changing. Good people are growing more and more earnest in the fight; and slowly, but surely, they are coming to that plaee where they can see eye to eye, and will join forces for the final fight. The young people will lead the way. We hope this new crusade will not be confined to Canada, but that it will spread to the United States, and then leap across the waters, and unify the youth of Christendom for the war. We call upon the Epworth League Convention at Cleveland, and the great Christian Endeavor Convention at Montreal, to take this question under consideration and formulate same plan by which all the young people'ssocitiesinthe United States can work together for the extermination of the liquor traffic.
