I'm 01 years old today. I havo lived to seo many wonderful changes. I havo Been tho French nt Berlin and tho Germans in Paris, and now I thank tho God that thoso good old eyes of mino can soo but littlo 7HPn evil in this world. It is Eoldom enough that I stir from homo now, for my own limbs aro not so lissom now as thoy used to bo in tho days of the great emporor, when I danced down all tho villngo girls at our foto of Paques (Easter) and Now Year's ovo nnd prayed for tho soul of our young lord, Henri do Mortomar, for it was upon that day that ho sinned his greatest ein, nnd sorely indeed was ho punished for it. May God havo mercy upon his sonll You Eay you would liko to hoar iho tale? Well there aro not many gentlemen who would caro to sit and listen to oc old woman's idlo stories, so if yoV:6 good enough to wish to loam it y,t shall havo it, and welcome. Thero's but littlo remaining now of tho od chateau of Mortcmar, and if monsiour tho marquis could como back to it ho would hardly know his own homo again, for wbon tho peoplo roso np Itf77lJ3tbey scarcely left ono etono npoii rtnothor. You can just seo a half turned cornor of ouo of tho towers, and that's all. Bnt in tho days before tho rovolution what a placoitwasl Such feasting all day long! Such music nnd dancing nnd gayoty of every kind Such troops of Servants in rich liveries, nnd fitio cntlomcn with laced coats and silver bolted swords, and beautiful ladies with powdered hair, and glittering with jewels liko tho shrino of tho Holy Virgin in tho cathedral yonder. But to pay for all this splendor v( of tho peoplo had to mako soup out of nottlos and to go without flro in winter, and that's why I'm glad tho timos aro changod 1 ft ri p.? TJ r $ f r si . ii ft M M. Henri was tho only child, but his father, tho great marquis, had adopted a young lady, tho daughter of an old friend of his who had beon killed by his Eido nt tho battle of Minden. These woro all that lived in tho house, but thero woro nlways plenty of young gentlemen frpm tho neighborhood hanging about tho chateau and well thoro might bo when Each a protty girl as Mllo. Adelu was in it. It would tako a good hour to tell yon ot all her admirers, but tho two gayest and wildest of them all woro Gaston do St. Oyr, nnd Raymond do Mericourt, whom they used to call tho Black Eaglo. Holy St. Joseph I What n wild sot thoy were, thoso young madcaps I can romombor ns if it woro yesterday (though I was only n child thon) how thoy used to raokot about tho streets of tho town nt night, kissing overy pretty girl they mot and prloking ovory quiet old burgher with their swords till ko jumped and hallooed liko n dancer nt a fair. It was no uso complaining, for no one dared to touch a gentleman in thoso days, and onco, when tho mayor ventured to object to their doings, they answered by hanging a dead dog at his door with a pieco of paper in its mouth saying, "A ton tour, mou frerol" (In your turn, brother.) Littlo did thoy droam, then, that thoir own friends nnd kinsmen wero to bo hung nlong thoso streots in tho very samo way only a fow years later. But thoro was ono nmong tho roisterers so different from tho rest that ho quito put mo in mind of that plcturo of Bt. Antoino among tho domons which hangs nbovo tho font in our church. This was young Armand do Courval, who had been bred up for tho church, only his elder brother diod suddenly and left him heir to tho family property. But overy ono baid ho would havo dono much better for an abbo than for h lord, he was so gravo and bo gcntlo and eo quiet, hardly over speaking or lifting his oyes from tho ground. Our Wild young gentlemen used to mako Iluo fun ot him, as you may think, but ho boro it oil without n word, till at last.thoy got tired nnd loft off. Now, of course, thero was n good deal of talk in our neighborhood about tho young lady and her admirers, nnd plenty of guefir.e8we.ro madoas to who would bo tho man. Somo said it was M. Henri, whilo others doclarcd that, having been brought up together liko brother and bister, they would uovor think of each other in any other way. Most peoplo wero for M. do Mericourt, and indood it wouldn't have been easy to find a hand-ocr or a bolder man if ho only had not been eo terribly wild, but just then a thing befell which gavo us all somo-thin- g elso to think about It was terribly hot x over Franco that summer of 1768, and tho older men thook thoir heads and Eaid that if wo didn't get somo rain eooii it would bo all over with tho harvest. This was bad nows for us poor folks, who had littlo enough to live on anyhow, bat upon it camo another pieco of news that wo liked btill loss namoly, that Bovoral dogs of tho neighborhood had gone mad and wea miming about the country biting overy pno whom they mot. iiow, ono evening about that time Mile. Adola went out to stroll among the trees by tho riversido, which was a favorito walk of hers. All at onco thero camo buretjug through tho bushes a Lugo black (log, raving mad, with its tonguo lolling out and the foqm flying 1 iow. - from behind n troo (whero ho had been reading all tho afternoon) sprntig do Oonrval, tho scholar, tho dreamer, tho man nt whom every ono laughed. Ho ran right at tho envngo bruto, weaponless as ho was, flung his coat over Its head, bo ns to blindfold it for an instant, nnd then quick as lightning seized and hurled it bodily luto thn rivor. When tho other gentlemen heard what had happened, thoy wero greatly amnzed, as you may think, and praised his courago up to tho skies, but ho only said: "Why do you oxtol me? Givo tho praiso to God, who hoi ped mo." And then he sllppod away, as if ho didu t want to hear any moro of it. But tho noxtylayMllo. Adola camo to him ns ho sat in n nook of tho groat eastern window and said vory earnestly: "M. do Courval, I can novor thank you enough for your bravery. I think few of thoso gay cavaliers who mnko sport of you would lmvo faced such a death half so woll." But Do Oonrval only Einilod a End, sweet smile, such as ono might fanoy on the facoof a martyr when tho flamoa aro rising fast around him. "Ah, my child," Eaid ho in his soft, low voice "it is better to bo doing good than to livo doing nothing." And for several days nftcr that our-- j young lady was sirangciy bhuuk uuu thoughtful. Tho summer passed, nnd tho autumn passed, and ns winter begau.to draw on every ono mado his preparations for tho Jour do TAn (Now Year's day), which, ns you know, is our great day in France. There nsed to bo n great foto overy year nt tho chateau of Mortemar, and this time it was to bo oven grander than usual, for monsiour tho marquis had invited frionds from all parts and had announced that ho should give a feast on Now Year's ovo to all the tenants on his estate, of whom my mother was one. So thon tho young gentlemen began to talk about gottintf np somo kind of show to amuso tho tenantry, nnd M. Henri, who was always foremost in every kind of fun, cried out: "Hark ye, gentlemen, theso good peoplo say wo'ro wild, ns devils, so supposo wo tako them nt thoir word. Wo'll dress up as demons and treat them to a domon danco." Tho others shouted with laughter and said it would bo just tho thing; but Armand do Courval shook his head. "For heaven's sake, my friends," said ho, "don't mako n jest of snch thiugs! Yon know" "Wo know that you havo a right to bo shocked, my dear abbo," broko in M. Henri, laughing, "but it can't matter much for poor sinners liko us. I'm suro if Batan himsolf likes to como nnd head our danco ho'll bo heartily welcome." Now Year's ove camo nt last, nnd tho tenants woro thoro in thoir best clothes, my mother and I among tbem. Tho great courtyard had boen covered in with canvns and warmed by a big fire at each end, nnd thoro wo had our supper. Monsieur tho marquis and our young lady wont out nmong us to eoo that wo had enough, whilo tho rest sat at tho windows and looked on. n Vbca supper ended, thoro was a burst of wild music.

Most Shoes are made of leather, but that is the only thing about them that is alike. The designing, cutting, fitting, sewing, soling, must all come in before the shoe is a shoe, and it depends upon how 'these are done, whether, the shoe is as good as it should be or not. The firm of Pingrse'& Smith says: . r " bh 0 i 0 i i it-- "TheerSs notliing like Leather. Jf it's well put together:" Ourfearnest effort for about twenty long years has been to sell shoes made of good leather, well put together. Most of our shoes come direct from the manufacturer to us. We buy from shoet makers who understand their busi ness, and stand behind their work, enabling jus to see to it that you 'get your money s rorth" when you buy your shoes of us. roti o 3J 0 0 0 6 of C C To begin, I will not say "I take my pen in hand, etc.," but will say that at last we have found a name for the boy "that is as plump as an orange." We thought we would give him a short name and finally settled on the familiar Bcnjamine Henry, and for short call him Bcnnie. In connection with this topic I will not forget to add that all the congratulatory letters from the Earlingtonians were received in due time, as well as the admoni tion of Brother F. B. Arnold to immediately buy a No. 9 hat to keep my head from bursting. For congratulations accept our thanks; for admonition, will seriously consider. As Christmas draws near I am thinking of the wonderful gift to the world. We all expect to give and to receive presents soon, but friends, let us think of that heavenly gift that has come into the world for everyone, You and I are included in this great gift. We may have the benefits of this great blessing, though we, be rich or poor. Let us not forget that we have a precious gift, in value far above rubies, tendered us. When I am thinking of this wonderful gift my heart rebounds with gladness when I know it is for mi. And tills gift that brings me' glad ness is not for mc alone, but for all my friends, then this thought only causes me to rejoice with greater joy.' And now while you all will mingle as in times of yore remember that though I am here amid other friends, yet I will remember your kindness to me at many times while there, and will pray that af this time more people will accept the heavenly gift in your city than at any other time in the history of Earlington. With deep regret did I read the luncral notice of Brother Edwin Phillips,,, so kindly sent me by Brother Burr, as well as the full account in The Bee. At this late date I extend sympathy to the family, and to the children, I truty sympathize with you, for God called my father when I was only nfnc years of age. The very day Sister Hall arrived here she received notice of her father's death. We all have our afflictions, but He who gave his son to the world gives us graee to uphold us in our afflictions. With sadness do I read each week of the illness of my old friend Mr. Day, and wish I could be with him, and the family, to point them But I know there are to God. others there who' could do more possibly than I, and I content myself by knowing they will do all that human hands can do. So the "boss editor" has returned and writes in his old familiar style. I wrote him while at Dawson to visit me, but I never have heard from, but will add in parenthesis, I do not think the' people still hunt in this county. Yes we like this country. The people are good and we have back bones, spare ribs and sausago galore good old country sausage. When can we come? Well I can't say just now, but if we ever get into the Green River country we will give Earlington a call. You should be here and sit by our fire a huge fire place with logs piled up just like we read about and we keep warm, and I keep warm cutting those logs getting mem reaay ior me ure piacc. When the fire is made I enjoy it but when the wood is to cut I wish I had the largest carload of coal ever loaded by the. St. Bernard Company. There is no coal mines nearer this place than Crabtree mines and only two or three families around here burn coal. But I wilr close for this time promising to write again soon.

"What steady and gratifying advances have been made here during tbe past fifteen years a personal inspection of tbe material equipment strikingly proves. Tbe fundamental plan of tbe original undertaking has been steadily followed, but new features have been added; gaps in the course of instruction have been filled in: tbe patronage and resources have been largely increased, until even tbe legislative department of tbe State of Alabama, and finally the Congress of tbe United Slates recognized tbe worth of tbe work and of the great opportunities here afforded. From one small frame house tbe institute has grown until it includes the fine group of dormitories, recitation rooms, lecture balls and workshops, which have so surprised and delighted us today. A thousand students, I am told, are here cared for by nearly a hundred teachers, all together forming, with the preparatory department, a symmetrical scholastic community, which has been well called a model for the industrial colored schools of the South, Certain it is that a pupil bent on fitting himself or herself for mechanical work can here have the'' widest choice of useful and domestic occupations. "Integrity and industry are post sessions which any man can have, and every man can have them. Nobody can give them to bim nor take them from bim. He can not acquire them by inheritance; be can not buy them or beg tbem or borrow them. They belong to the individual and are bis unquestioned property. He alono can part with them. They are a good thing to have and keep. Tbey make bappy hnmes;they achieve success in every walk of life; they have won the greatest triumphs No man who has them ever gets into tbe Police Court or before tbe grand jury or in ttV work house or the chain gang. They give one moral and material power. They will bring you a- - comfortable living, make you respect yourself and command the respect of your fellows, They are invincible. The merchant requires tbe clerk whom he employs to have them. Th? railroad corporation inquires whether tbe man seeking employment possesses tbem. Every avenue of human endeavor welcomes them. Tbey are tbe only keys to open with certainty the door of opportunity to struggling manhood. Employment waits on tbem; capital requires them; citizenship is not good without tbem. If you don't already have them, get them. "In comparing the past with tbe present you should be especially grateful that it has been your good fortune to come within the influences of such an institution as that of Tuskegee, and that you are, under tbe guidance of such a strong leader. I thank bim most cordially for tbe pleasure of visiting this institution, and I bring to all here associated my good will and the best wishes of your countrymen, wishing you tbe realization of snecess in whatever undertakings may hereafter engage you. tbe-bes- Known and much respected flfe' THE EXCELIENCB OF SYRUP OF FWS "W .m 'Wfr 4 (., O.

"God, who nt sundry times and In mnnnorn npaco In times jwist unto tho fathers by tho prophet. " . Wo h,i"o In previous lusnoiis been considering how God liy the prophets entreated tho peoplo to turn ngnin to Him that Ho might bless thorn, and slneo tho tlmo when In tho garden of Kdeii Ho fought Adnm with tho question "Where- art thou?" Ho has been over seeking to win man back to Himself. Ho does this In different ways, iw If is written In Ho, xll, 10, "I lmo also spoken by tho prophets, nml I hnvo multiplied visions and used similitude) by tho ministry of tho prophets " Job scxxlll, St), HO, In tho light of tho previous port of tho chapter, tells how in innny ways Ho divi thU. Tho great thing to bo lomriiiborvil Is that what-oe- r or w hoosor may bo the Instrumentality is Is Ood Hlmiolf that is doing It. lnstdays simkcn'unto :,'. " Hnth In the us liy Ills Son, whom Ho luith "appointed li"lr'cf all things, by whom also Ho inado tl.c worlds." Tho Son Hiiu'.elf to this when In Math, s.xl, 37, In tho para bio of ihe vineyard, Ho sjiotkR of tlio Fa tin r as last of nil sending tothom His son, sajln, "They will rovuronco my Son.' liut liittfMl ofroverenclng Him they took Illm nml sli'w'Hiiu. Ho ramo unto His own, nnd Ills own received Him not. His own peopli- would not lmvo Him nnd Hl3 own iKihM'fjiions found no room fop Him, just ns nt Ills birth therowas no room for Him in tlio Inn, mitt when they crucified Him Ho was numbered with tnuiegressors, nnd they made Ills grao witii tho wicked. 0. "Who, being tho Iirightness of His glory nnd tlio oxpross lmngeof His jierson, nnd upholding nil tilings by tho wurd of Ills power, whon llo had liy Himself purged our sins, snt down on tho right hand of tho Majesty on high." Cod was In Christ. Ho was God manifest In tho Hesh (II Cor. v, 10; I Tim. ill, 10), but tho glory tliat was In Illm was generally conciwled. It was elled liy Ills mortal body (Holt, "x, SO), yet on tho Mount of Transfiguration It shono forth nnd was witnessed by tho favored, threo (H i'ot. J, 17; John i, 14). Tlio phmso "ospress Imago" is just Jlio wont "clinractec;' in tho Greek nnd ll, I think, uod now hero elsn. In Josus Christ wo seo tho diameter of God, nnd tUero li no oharurter In us thnt amounts to nnythlng npnr- - from Christ in us. He, liy tho sacrifice of Illm-t-clput nwoy forever tlio sins of nil who receivo Him. Ho hmi made provision for tho salvation of nil, but those, only who eomo receive tho boocfit. How can they coiuo unlefls they hear? J. "Hclng imido no much better than tho angels, ns Ho hnth by Inhcrltaueo n morn excellent namo tltnn they." Tho angels am ministering spirits sent forth to minister unto tho heirs of saltation, but to any of tlicin God never said, "Sit on my right bond until I make thlno enouiles thy footstool" (versos 13, 14). Ho made Himself for a Uttlowhllo inferior to tho nngels, taking ujkmi Him our nature that Ho might in duo tlino llffc us up b). to Ills iwsitlon (chapter ii, 6. 'Tor unto which of tho nngels said Ho nt nny timo, Thou art my .on, tills dny linvo I liegotteu thco?" And.ngnln, "I will bo to Illm a Father nml Ho shall bo to mo a Son." Tlio first quotation hero refers to HU resurrection from tho dead (Ps. l, 7; Acts xlii, 83); tho second to His being heir to (ho thronoof David (II Sam. vll, 1 1). Xo ongcl can ever sit oil David's throne, nor can an angel ever possess a mortal body mndo immortal. Tlio word "better" is ono of tho keywords of this epistle, aud In chapters I and it tlio central .thought eccnu to bo " better thnnnngols," while in tlio following chapters it is better than Moses or Aaron or tho tnbornncle, and wo nro to run with patlcnco tho mco that Is setboforo us, "looking unto Jesus" and waiting for Himtocomo back from jioavcu. Ho was with power declared to bo tho Son of God by tho resurrection from tho dond, nnd wo shall bo fully manifest as fcons of God in tho rosurrcwtlqn. 0. "And again when Hobringeth In tho first begotten InfjQ tlio world IIu saith, And let all tho nngels of God worship Him." When Ho bringeth Tho margin wiys again," and o idently ixiftrs to Ills socond coming In power and glory, nnd this Is tlio ecuso of IV xlvll, from which tlio quotation is made, for itspcaksof Hisreigii nnd His judgment of His enomlos and His kingdom.
