THE FUNERAL AT MORGAN'S. IIYM. QUAD. When I reached Morgan * ? , on tlio Yndkln river , North Carolina , there wore several people about tlic door and llirco or four mules hitched to the fenro. It looked as If the family wcro in trou ble , and I was passing on when Morgan cnmo out mid stopped me and said : " 1 couldn't let yon go by , nohow. Deed , but I'm glad you've coino. " "Vou seem to be in trouble. " "An1 that's one reason why you must Btoj ) . My Poll la dead. She was hit by n ratllcr early this morning on yon hill. Como in an' chirk the ole wnnian a bit. " It was a specimen mountain cnhiti.and they were specinu'ii mountaineers. The mother sat rocking , with an aprui cov ering Iier whoU head , and a boy of ten Bat in n corner wiping his eyes and nose with utter impartiality on the family towel. Such ol the iH'ijrhbors as had coino In were awed to silence by the presence of the corpse on the bod. I'oll vrns a girl of eighteen , poor and scrawny , nnd Iier face having that pinched look Which the face of every mountain fe male hears as something natural to It. It appeared to bo a great relief U ) all lohiivoa stranger arrive , and afU'r a few minutes Mrs. Morgan uncovered her head and explained. "The Lord jisl brung it about Hisself. lie said to Poll : 'You go up .van hill and git some sassafras root for collee , ' and she wont. Then He satU to the Hiiako : 'When Poll cums you bite her in the calf of the left leg'and ho bit her. It was the Lord ayid nobody else. " "Yes , that's so , .lenny , " said the bus- bund. "I'm ear It n it's so , " chorused all the others , while the boy added : "Yes , but what did the I < ord xvant to hev Poll Ijll for ? Was He'nn down on Bho'unV" "t'auso rie'un wanted Poll to be an augol , and she couldn't be an angel 'till Hhu was done gone dead , " answered the mother. ' Thct's jinUt , ' ' sighed the father. "It is hard for you to lese her , but fiho is bettor olT , " I said , to break the loiig.allonco that followed. "Reckon she ar' , " replied tlio mother. "Poll was a good gal , an' sho'd a bin inar'd tills fall , and the feller she was to hov inar'd has got a mewl and three hogs an'a gun , but tlio Lord knows best. When Ho wants anybody fur an angel they bus got to go someho\v. Stranger , do you know about HoavcnV" "I have rea'd about it. " "Do thev huvo rich duds and good Hvin' up tlmrV" "Tho verv best , Mrs. Morgan. " "I'm glad on't. I'oll never had ntith- Ing bettor'n calico to w'ar and | > one and bacon to eat. an' 1 hope she'll now git as good as anybody. Huv angels got to 4 > o cildoeatcdy" No , ma'am. All arc alike. " "That's powerful right. Poll never wont to hkule but two days , an' if the Lord should ax her how fur it was to Greensboro , or whar the Tennessee egun , she'd hov bla up a tree. Yes , hat's powerful right. " "An gwine h'arfutan' stnokin' a iiipo or dippin' snulT wouldn't count agin her , would it ? " asked the father. "I think not. There was nothing evil in that. " "Not a bit. Poll was a powerful good gal. It's like losin' teeth to lese her. " The boy was.evidently a little jealous , and ho suddenly spoke up : "Wish a snake would bite moV" "Hiram , don't you go fur to consider to remember any ieh wicked thing ! " sharply exclaimed the mother. "When the Lord wants you He'll send for you. Mobbo Ilo'lr have you bit by a snake , and luebbo Uo'll have ye clawed by n wild-cat , or pi/.ened by jim-weed. " "Yes , Hiram , you shell' ' sighed the father. I wanted to go on that evening , but Morgan fcaid he'd lake it as a great favor if I'd stay over to the funeral next day , and so t couldn't very well get away. When the morrow came it brought withit the only preacher for ton miles around , and he took mo for a walk up the road and acknowledged that he was a mighty poor dispenser of the gospel , lie said he wanted some hints , and I gave him the best advice I had to offer , iiover having been in such a situation before. The deceased was dressed in ner Sunday calico , placed in a rude eoflln which one of the men spent the Might in making , and the grave was dug on a kiioll about forty rods away. About twenty-live people were jri at tendance , and every one was a trenuine sympathizer. Kadi man sis ho shook liands with Morgan said : "I'm powerfully sorry , Dan' , but it had to bo. " And elieh woman sought to comfort Mrs. Morgan by saying : "She's better oil , poor tiling a heap bolter on" , nor wo who ar' left in thi Bhui'kless world. " When the time name for the preacher to step forward and oHiciate his nerve failed ami lie arose and said : "Ho'un is from the no'th , and he'nn knows hotter what to Say. Let hu'un go ahead. " "Stranger , mought I ax ye to bloogoV" queried Morgan. "Wo are pore an' humble critters , but wo try to live in such a way as not to make the Lord ashamed of us. Yo mought not be a purfessing Christian , but we are sluiro yor heart is right. " I tried to comfort them in their sorrow row ; they were all fervent singers and fcomohow we got along all right. Who.n the mother took lior last look at her dead child she hold up her hands and Bit id : "O , Lord , I'm a-dcpondin' on ye through all my tribulations , and 1 kin slfoorcoly spell yor name in print , but don't desarl me now when heaps of tro'iblo press mo down. Lot I'oll into hcavon , and when the rest of us die lot Hi in. too , and wo will praise Thy name furuvor. Amen.1 When all had taken a last look overj oy WIM wet with tears. Kough , un- cinitb , uneducated living scarcely like caili/.od bolngh but their hearth were at. tender as children's , and their words honest.

" "And the Lord won't shot any of u * out fur iibln * a snuiT-stlck or danclil' at a liouso-ralsin'y" "No. " " ( ilorv ! I was afeared IIo would , though it ain't In mv bible. " She fell back and quietly used bur Enufi-fttick , and six of us carried the body to the gravo. A hundred thou sand eulogies might have boon pro nounced , but none could have equaled the few words which dropped from the Hio ) of a tray-haired mountaineer who stopped forward. Clasping his bunds ha vrhltiperod : "Oh , Lord , wo'vo sontyo anothorsoul to judge , Ho merciful njid remember tlio bjij'doiib hho had to bour. " There was but ono room to the houso.

Globe Democrat : "There are many stage beauties who have not washed their faces in years,1' was the astonish ing remark of a popular actress the other day. "They keep the skin clean by rubbing It with a piece of soft vel vet , and they would a * soon use vitriol as any of the much advertised balms and lotions , " she continued. "Tho so- cietv holloa who have boon using these waahes from a desire to look more beautiful than nature made them , are a pimply and sallow lot. A * a mutter of fact , stage beauties exercise much more care in regard to their complexion and figures than the average society lady. Hoauty is to a certain extent their slock in trade , and they strive to make It as effective and permanent as they can. The majority of them have a regular system which beats a truck load of face washes and lotions. To begin with , tin ; stage beauty does not sit tip until all hours of the morning at "gormans" and dancing parties. She goes to bed by midnight , or earlier if possible. If , perchance , a suppur or some similar matter keeps her up later than her usual hour , no rbund of calls or morning Chopping can lure her from her bed the next day. She insists upon having sleep , and plenty of it , for she ItnowH that there is nothing more de structive to good looks than lack 'of sleep. Immediately upon rising she takes a cool bath , not the "cold tub" of our ICnglish cousins , for that tends to coarsen the sUin and make it too ruddy , but there is just enough hot water in tlio bath to take the chill off. Then she is thoroughly "groomod" by her maid. She indulges in frequent Turkish baths , and is nice to fanaticism about the freshness and quality of her under wear. She realizes that whatever in timate relation cleanliness may bear to godliness , it is certainly the pa rent of a gcod complexion. A break fast of fruit , oatmeal , a juicy steak , a careful arvoidunco of all greasy foods and stimulants , including tea anil coffee , and but very moderate indul gence in sweets are the tributes the stage beauty pays to her complexion. She lakes daily exercise , just enough to keep the llesu from becoming llabby , but not enough to make it muscular. She practices fencing and boxing to keep her joints and muscles supple and under perfect control , and she studios her weight day by day , only eatingsueh things as will keep her in perfect phys ical condition. If she shows n ten dency to embonpoint she eschews po- tatoe's , sugar , and all flush-producing food. In the privacy of her apartments she divests herself of corsets and tight- fitting garments , and wears only the loosest gowns. In fact , she is more of a sluvo to her ligure and complexion than are her most ardent admirers. It is a hard litethis constant cure and watchfulness and checking one's bolf at every turn , and few society women are willing to submit to it. They endeavor to matte up for the ravages of late hours nnd time by artificial aids , which are at best short lived and unsatisfactory. Individual beauties huvo their own theories as to the preservation of the complexion and improving tlio figure. Olga Hrandon , who for a few years was the beauty of the Madison 'Square theater , used to claim that for ten years she had never touched water to her face or nock , but removed dust and all impurities by curoful rubbing with a piece of white velvet. Miss Brandon , or Miss Urniidoiibtoln , as bho is known in private life , also used to enhance the attractions of a well-proportioned ligure. by wearing only tightly-lilting chamois leather underweaV , this doing away with the skirts and displaying every line of the figure underneath' cling ing draperies. This was sometimes hardly modest , but with the mala portion tion o'f the audience it was always Direc tive. Many professional beauties are careful to wash their faces only with pure water , without a truce of soup , as tlio alkali in the soup , unless it is of the very best quality , .has a tendency to roughen the skin. Mrs. Langlry uses a wash of ouimoal dissolved in warm walor every night before retiring. Ono of the best and simplest means of preserving a good complexion is to wash the face in al most scalding water , In which bicar bonate of boda has been dissolved in the proportion of about a tablespoon ful of soda to a quart of water , afterward rub bing the fuco thoroughly witli a little cold cream or olive oil. Frequent exercise , wholesome food and AurupulGus cleanliness are after nil the Iwfil aids to beauty. Dully sun baths uiv highly recommended by women , vtho-o girl-liko complexion testify to the good results of the treatment. In all CUPOS it is safe to assert that the simplest and most natural methods are the most effective in preserving or im proving the complexion. Drugs and chemicals loud only a scorning aid for a time , and then louvu the unfortunate worse olT than she was before. . i California , Mio Land of Discoveries Why will you lay awake nil night , coughing , when that most ngroeablo California remedy , Santa Able , will give you immediate relief ?

Atlanta Constitution : "Whon old Harrison wus elected in 1810 it was all of a month before wo knowod which way it had gone , " sain Plunkott. n < j ho ftnibhod lilting his pipe and settled back In his chair. "Wo waited then for the stage couches to bring the UOWB , and U was always n xveok or two before the crowds would begin to gather at the cross roads to hoar the report , and then it was kept up on every stage day till the news was certain and , in the meantime , there was always more or less chawing olT ol ears and biting fingers and gouging out eyes nnd sich like iiotweon the cham pions of the two candidates. "They told mo the other day that If I would go up to Atlanta and stay in the Constitution building at night ] should see how It was done these davs and that I should know who was elected before sun-up the next morning. "I wont , and when t got line the building they took me erround in or little trap-looking place that they sail was an olevalor. I didn't know nothbig erbout what elevators was , but thej told mo It wouldn't hurt me and that ii was just to keep folks from walking u [ stair steps. Seven or eight follows got into the thing with mo and then the fellow that was running the concern shut er door and pulled on or rope ant up we scooled Into the top of the House. I hold my breath till the fellow pulled the rope ergin and then the concern stopped and it didn't take no telling for me to get out , and if I've got forgive ness for getting on to the thing that time I'll never have to bo forgivoorgln , for I'm too old now to 'sporlment. "They had mo In the fifth story of the Constitution building thenand L'vo climbed some mighty big trees In my day , but I never was no waya nigh so high off of the ground as that before , and when 1 looked out the window down on the crowds that had gathered er round the building and were swaying and whooping I thought to myself that old Sherman couldn't do nothing with Atlanta now and when I contemplated that most all this surging mass wcro young fellows brought up since the war , 1 decided that it was all foolishness to talk urbout marriage being a failure. "I seed a big whitosheot tacked on to the building in front of us on the other side of the street and a fellow told mete to put qn my specks and watch that sheet and I'd see the news as it was flashed over the wires from all parts of the country. Ho then ex plained , when bo seed mo drop my head , that in the story below us was tlio tele graph operators and Hint the Constitu tion folks hud lixed a magic lantern that would throw the news over on that sheet. I didn't say orthing , but I didn't believe it , but in or minit I see a light Hush ercrosstho sheet and then or picture of. old Cleveland stood out upon it as plain as any of those pictures that I'd seed going erround. Ho stood there for a minit and the crowds that filled the street looked like they would have cr lit as they hollered nnd slapped their hands and. tliroweil up their hats. Then Cleveland went off the sheet in a twink- linlc and another Hash of the lantern put upon the sheet as plain as print : " 'New York is safe Cleveland is elected. ' "The crowds swayed and yelled crgin and I noticed the niggers that hung on the ontslcirts of the crowd dropped their heads and looked like they were at a funeral. That soon passed off the sheet and the words that took its place wore : " 'Indiana and Connecticut conceded to Harrison. ' "Thon it coino the niggers time to holler , the whites dropped their heads and let'em go It. It warn't inoro'n or minit till there Hashed orcross the sheet : " 'This instant advices received from Indiana gives the state to CLEVELAND - L-A-N-D- ' - - - "As the hist word was spelled out the felloxvs in the street hugged each other and hit each other and hollered and swayed to and fro till it made my head swim to look down upon them , and as I raised my eyes for relief I seed the niggers drooping ergin , but it warn't mor'n cr minit till there Hashed on the street : streetNow D-O-U-B-T-F-U-L. ' -Now York - - - - - - - "You ought to seed them niggers thonv They jumped and yelled and tore'Crrouuu and pressed lo gel nearer the shoot , but the whites held firm awaking the next telegram. "So the night was passed first ono side and then the other were jubilant , till the clock struck three , and then come the final telegram that said : ' * 'Harrison seems to huvo it good night.1 "The crowd swayed and yelled , but it was not Ion" : till the biggest part had loft and the streets seemed to have a shadow of gloom settled down upon them. "This electricity and magic lantern business is a bigtbingandaquiek thing , and it .scorns wonderful to an old man like me , .but with it all there is no more satisfaction than there was with the old stage line manner of making such things known. The tick of the telegraph - graph battery docs not sound as sweet to my ear as did the horn of the stage driver of 1840 as ho came blowing around the bond of the road at old Hol land's , pulling the lines over six line blacks with a sheet on each side of the coach that read : 'Harrison is elected.
