Multitudes were very busy in the pursuit •f tumbles that glittered In their eyes and dineed tiefore them— But often, when they thought theuiselv within reach of them, their footing fulled and down thev sunk. It Is a frailty of humun nature to be harsh and cold toward the frailty of human nature. Most of us—even those of us who take pride to ourselves for being considerate anti tolerant, as we deem to think, find our tongue often saying and our mind oftener thinking, “I told you so,” or “you might havi known better.” This when It happened that their footing failed and down they sunk. It Is a frailty of humun nature to be busy In the pursuit of baubles, baubles that glitter In the eyes and dance be fore them. One may by taking thought <*om««J0-the belief that the only erring path*,)YP, take In life are those by-ways whoie course we follow In the chose of the glittering and dancing bauble. One may be dazzled by the Irides cent glory of wealth, or pump of pow er, another by the delectable gleam of fugitive pleasure, or alluring enchant ment of .eminence In society. All of us pursue that which we have not, have not In fulness. And, haply, our footing fall* and down we sink. The papers of this week have had much to say about the uuhapplness of the marriages of two American worn- . en. It Is the popular opinion, however fallacious that be, that these women had bartered their countless wealth for wealthless counts. If the play on words may be pardoned. It is the belief of those—who really have no right to un opinion about It—that these two American women entered Into mnrital alliances with foreign nobles, having all the faults and vices peculiar to tile third and fourth degeneration, solely because they were willing to sell thein- sc^ves and their millions for the dwarf ed glory and prestige of partlclpancy In an old world title. With untold wealth, beauty, education and position In American society, they sought that which of all things in the world they had not. A title. They were only busy In the pursuit of baubles that glittered In their eyes and danced before them. But when they thought themselves within reach of them their footing fail ed and down they sunk. There Is no moral to this. Humanity must chase Its bauble*—else It Is not human but superhuman. But let us keep In mind when we see their foot ing fall and down they sink that we, too, have pursued or are seeking bau bles—maybe of another sort, but bau bles none the less elusive nnd profit less. SATURDAY EVENING. All men and women, who were fortunate enough to have heard the great evangelist. Rev. Dwight Moody, preach, were impressed • with three c haracteristics, which he possessed to an emlnenf degree, nnd which consti tuted the foundation u|sm which was hultded his marvelous power over No one ever listened Intelligently to*thffc very remarkable man without i call zing the utter nnd entire absence of self In hls preaching; hla tre mendous earnestness of purpose and his Intense nnd beautiful faith. These three things made. Mr. Moody one of the very wonderful pulpit orators of modern times. Ills Jack of the faintest suggestion of personal vanity, or of self-cons* lousness, was alt the more surprising when It is recalled the Interest he awoke and the sensation he created by his sermons In all i»or- tl.»ns of the English speaking world. This characteristic' alone entitled him to profound consideration and emphasized the fact that vanity Is a component part of only small, circumscribed brains. Hls earnestness was Infectious—al! earnestness Is and will always con tinue to be. No man or woman ever accomplished anything in life without this es sential quality. The failures have been rarely made by _persons who are thoroughly aroused upon u subject and who pursue an aim with Intelligent enthusiasm and with a serlousnew of determination. And then Mr. Moody bud unquestioning trust nnd childlike belief In God and Hls revealed Word. The eagerness with which men listened to the teachings of such absolute, beautiful fnlth evidenced the craving of humanity for the simple, glorious gospel of the early fathers. It Is a notable fact that in these latter days the Jmollei t and Influence of the most gifted men and women of the world are being thrown on the side of a pure anti undented Christianity. The specious reasoning of the agnostic makes but small Impression upon the people larger The mental vanity of a certain class of present- day preachers*, which finds expression In futile efforts to bring into disre pute the fundamental tenets of the Apostles' Creed, arouses but an Intfgnifi- cant and inconsequential following. The. weight of genius and,of cultiva tion have been largely thrown on the side of a genuine, wholesome Chris tianity nnd of all men most miserable is be whose restless, unsettled brain is forever at war with bis own soul. The constantly Increasing tendency on the part of the public toward a thorough appreciation of true godliness Is one of the most encouraging Indications of the present times, and suggests more, perhaps, than anything else, the growth of a sincere Christian senti ment. This Is nn era of action, not of Inertia, of living as well as talking, and no man can preach a sermon—even though he possess the tongue of an ungel—half so powerful for good as bis own dally walk In and out the devious paths of life will prove. The world demands that what a man teaches he must exemplify, not In one small particular, not In the keeping of one or two Scriptural injunc tions—j>ei haps in accord with hls natural temperament—but he must make all the sacrifices, bear all the btfrdcn*. exhibit the never-ceasing energy In well-doing of St. Paul, or hls preaching and teaching will be In vain and but a* "sounding brass and tinkling cymbal.” All classes, creeds nnd conditions or men gladly show every mark of respect for a man whose everyday living is In keeping with the sacred vows be has assumed, regardless of personal sacrifices entailed. The noble, up right, self-sacrificing Jives of a very large majority of the preachers of today have done much to bring about the acceptance of Christianity by the masses of mankind. Living, as these godly men do, with the white light of investigation beating upon them constantly, they stand forth before the world without reproach. Human, yet self-subduing, they furnish such manly examples of a wholesome Christianity that the veriest worldling honors them for their purity nnd for their honesty, nnd Is anxious to emulate their splendid virtues. Religious sentiment Is Increasing and the dally lives of the mln- l*J.ers of the gospel—with a few exceptions—are incentives to greater growth. They exemplify—with rare exceptions—the teachings of Christ, and thereby strengthen the fnlth of humanity in the doctrines they expound. When the world decides that a man is nn unworthy teacher or preacher, U Is generally the fault of the man, ami not of the world. Mr. Moody fell ■ on*'sleep with the followers of every religious sect do ing him honor as u mdn/>f simple, earnest, beautiful faith, whoso everyday living was a sermon in perfect and complete accord with the sacred texts of the Sermon on the Mount. Hut the crowning glory of this great evangelist’s life was the sweet and tender humility with which he sut at the foot of the cross, accepting with the loving faith of a little child the simple but tremendous truth of the salvation of mankind through the atonement made on Calvary’s height. fa! appetite, heightened by a romp. In the fields or a dip Jn the creek, had a great deal to do * with the way they appealed to us. Hut thousands>'of hus bands at one side and ten thousand at our right hapd are ready to testify, without hope of reward or fear of pun ishment, that the wife of their bosom can make biscuit which do not bring on battle, murder or sudden death. So that's another gag nailed. And.yet these very exceptions may only tend to establish the fact that for once the trite old jest should be taken In earnest, ami that most women, with the exception of Lily Blake nnd Carrie Cutt, are really and truly afraid of mice. The relative degree of fear on the part of n man and a woman would be difficult to establish. In order to make anything like a fair test they would have to be placed under the same han dicap. We might get some man—Mr. Ed ward Bok, for instance—put him In petticoats and try It. ANLANTA NEWSPAPER WOMAN REVIEWS "LADY BALTIMORE” FOR PUTNAM’S Joseph Madison High. The death of Mr. Joseph Madison High, after a long and stalwart struggle In mortal illness, remove* from Atlan ta another of those men who made the city what it Is. Mr. High wus endowed with the ge nius for business; he supplemented this gift with intelligent study and never- ceasing labor. And in thirty years in Atlanta he accumulated one of the largest fortunes ever made In the South in a mer cantile'business. Yet, strange to say, he was one of the most Inconspicuous of Atlanta’s citizens. He was known by sight to but few save those with whom he came into business and social contact. This was due to the fact that he was of modest, retiring disposition and be cause he devoted all of hls time and cn ergy to hls business. Yet he was nev er delinquent in any enterprise or pub lie movement that made for the good of Atlanta or Its people. The part he played In the upbuilding of Atlanta was important—though not heralded with flare of trumpet—and hls place In Atlanta will not soon be filled. Owen Winter'* story of old Charleston, "Lady Baltimore.” lias perhaps been more widely discussed among Southern women than any other story of recent year*. It lias been oiie of the few book* by an "out sider” which ft** pictured a Southern .city of the ohlcn type lu n way to amuse with out offending. Owes Witter has described Charleston and Its people in n charming way. No review of the story has given a clearer Idea of It* qualities than tlint lu Putnam'* Monthly of the current Issue, by Helene Ayer Armstrong, n member of The Georgian's staff, whose •pedal articles from time to time have shown the Value of uumiau writer to a daily newspaper. 311** Armstrong’s review Is reprinted here from Putnam*!

Little thought they that sneb n vulgar thing us appearing In print would ever befall Charleston and Chnrlestonnns! Meanwhile ire of every Bouthcru state are writing to Charleston for recipes of "Lady Baltimore,” nnd are saying among ourselves that this book of Owen Winter is alto gether fall of things ait delicious us uuy enke—even "Lady Baltimore"—could possi bly be.

And now the Central of Georgia railroad Is seeking the prop the shield Of the Federal court. The case Is this: During the panic of the early '80s, the state raili lowed the Central of Georgia to Increase Its freight rates 25 per cent, the avowed reason being to save the toad from bankruptcy. Xotv, by circular 3H! the state railroad commission seeks to reduce local rates approximately Hi per cent. Tills will leave the rates higher than those of the standard tariff of 1890. The railroad Is lighting the reduction of the tariff, saying that.lt will deprive It of u fair return upon the value of the property.

St. Anthony Bobs Up Again. The present excitement and interest shown In the Hearst and Hughes cam paigns, the international divorce pro ceedings which are occupying a large part of the dally papers and the alle gation that Mrs. Eddy was shadow and not substance, were too much for An thony Comstock. He was about to be forgotten. The case which the secretury of the Nice Society made against the Art Students’ League, of New York, claim ing that tho catalogue or prospectus of the school was indecent, Is. one of the most absurd as well as deplorable mis takes this sensational Comstock has made. The League, which has been established over 30 years, is recognized as the leading art school in America nnd ranks with the very best schools In Europe. Associated with the League from the very beginning have*been the foremost artists of America, whose character and ability have never been assailed until now. This school, which has over a thousand students, Is known over the country lor its thor ough respectability. But Mr. Comstock Is not so vehement In hls denunciation of .the League as he Is violent In de nouncing its catalogue for the simple reason that It contains pictures of the nude, or examples of the students' work done in the life classes. Has It ever occurred to this "wise” secretary that It Is absolutely necessary for an artist to be thoroughly familiar with the nude In order to either paint a portrait or mould a form? It Is Just as necessary for him to know the anatomy of the human form as it Is for a physician to understand It. It Is no more immoral for nn artist to draw from the nude than It Is for a man or woman physl- hi simply a matter of business. Therefore the catalogue of the Art Students' League or of any other art school which explains the work done in Its in- sUtutlens has Just ns much right to be circulated among prospective art stu dents as u medical book or journal has to be c irculated among prospective stu dents of a medical college. There certainly Is nothing more beautiful than the human form, but who would expect stolid, staid, delud ed Mr. Comstock to understand or ap preciate denuded art? The hearing of St. Anthony’s plaint, which comes up before Magistrate Mayo In the next few days, will be awaited with interest and ardent hope for the suppression of Comstock. LINCOLN'S FAMOUS PHRASE. In hls world-famous ' "Gettysburg Speech” Lincoln declared that the men whose monument they were then dedi cating had died in order thdt “govern ment of the people, by the people and for the people should not peiisa from the earth.” Like lightning the phrMse electrified the nation, nnd from that day to this it has remained the most celebrated sav ing in the most celebrated speech «.f modern times. But fame always has to pay a big price for itself, and repeatedly slm« . Lincoln’s brief, but Immortal, address was delivered It hgs been Intimated that the martyred president was u plagiarist, having taken from another the most striking phrase in hls speeeh without making any acknowledgment of the fact.

It does not by any means follow, however, that Lincoln was a conscious plagiarist. Mr. Lincoln had an Inquir ing mind, and knew a greut many things, but no man can know every thing; and It is more than likely that he had never heard of the phrase until hls own mliul had conceived It. But even If ft was proven that Lin coln had appropriated the phrase, as charged, the fact would militate In no serious way against hls fame. The greatest of the Germans, the immortal Goethe, declared one day to an intimate friend that if everything In hls works that he had got Tram others should be stricken out he would nut have a dozen pages left.
