No tawdry stuffs to tickle your momentary fancy. No cheap ish finery smacking of Chat ham or the Bowery, laden with the microbes of a hun dred abhorent diseases. No allurements in our ads about the number of our stores cr the size of same. Romans know the Trade Palace is to Rome as Le Bon Marcbe is to Parrs. Ours is the only modern up to-date dry goods store in Rome. Commodious, flooded with light, heated by hot air furn aces, attentive salespeople and almost daily deliveries of latest novelties it is the place for cold weather shop ping. We get our share —but you dodge the slimy arms of an o itopus. BEFORE THE WOMAN'S CLUB, The following papers on “The Power of Early Impressions'” was read by Mrs. Ethel Hilly er Harris before the Rome Woman’s Club at its meeting the past week: The most authentic account of the power of early impressions must be taken from one’s own personal experi ence. While it is in good taste to suppress the personal pronoun, yet egotism is overly tempted, and I will cite you to a beautiful picture, which memory kindly leaves to bring solace when fortune proves unkind. My earliest recollections are of the glorious sun light streaming over ver dant wheat-fields, and the low murmur of the gentle brown partridge cowering in their tender greenery. Then there is a winding river, and bosky dells, and plum thickets, and big oak trees in whose bows are a hun dred song birds. There is an old garden with holly hocks, roses, pear trees, and sweet thyme. There is above all the sweet face of my mother with her hair parted, Madonna-wise, a lace collar about her throat clasped with an old fashioned pin containing looks of her babies hair. > These things come to me in the cool experience of after years, and with them a little yellow backed catechism, and long Sunday afternoons and my moth er’s patient gentle voice saying, “Who made you?” “Who was the first man?” and “What did Abraham do for the love of God with his only child?’ ’ Above all the sophistries and specula tion of these latter day revelations, the sway of that small' brown, worn, and frazzled catechism abides—with tbe look of love in my mother’s eyes, and I know if any good comes to me here, or hereafter it will be because of her.

Fate can do her worst, hut memory is an immortelle, today I am again a child, and the most blessed of children one with a mother. I see again tbe open firn, and inhale the odor of the blazing pine knots I see my only sister rosily asleep in the tall “teaster” bedstead, and I see my fath er’s mahogony bureau with its glass knobs, and with it all is love, innocence, and youth. In those days though my respect for the blacks was much greater than my love for tne whites in the back yard, and kitchen, tbe dusky folk held me under a spell almost amounting to en chantment, A great triumph on the side of the young ones was that they could play on Sunday. A vivid picture abounds of a play house under an apple tree redolent with blooms. There was a doll very ill. they brought a doctor then amidst great wailing in colored throats, the dear lady died all on a Sunday evening, and was buried with great pomp and ceremony, and I could not go to tbe funeral just because I was white and must have my conscience hurt me for even looking on. It seemed very hard that the mere fact of being white should debar me from so many delightful sports, like wading in the creek “wringing a chicken’s neck’’ ‘‘possum hunting*’ climbing trees, and eating green apples, and kindred joys But even now the tragic death of the Sunday doll thrilled me more than tbe going off of Marguerite in Fau-t at tbe French opera during the carnival week of Mardi-Gras. Yet with it all we are still moles crawling in a long dark furrow, from j tin time of Rameees II what has p lilosopby brought ns that is tangible? At best we but wait and watch and wonder, our intentions, and our in stincts are our guardian angels What is mind? What is mattei? What is soul? Os the latter we must know.

The purpose of this olub is for better living, and Wiser dying. Tbe subject, of this paper is one beyond me I fad to do justice to tbe magnitude of its scope. Believing that fate is simplv environ meut how more than burdened, and re sponsible is woman for the future of man? Woman that word which trans lates all that is tender, lovable, and emotional, which says and means mother hood. How much do we, owe to the unborn child? Every child has tbe right to be properly born. Early impressions often signify pre natal impressions. When God gave to woman pain, by a sweet law of compensation, he also gave to her more than man the power to mould the features, and soul of her off spring. Purity of heart, a love for music, art, and all the beautiful, would as tbe sun colors the tight closed infant rose buds color all the future of her unborn child. Genius is said to be the child of love;, perfect congeniality, and nobility of soul, which are both the hand maidens of truth always bring harmony, and beauty to regale a weary Aorld. With all tbe tendencies of the modern new woman it Would be well for her to remember that the fairest “angels about tbe throne of Lfe are honor, unselfish uess and sympathy.” With all new, and progressive thought and with all renovations in dress, and manner, with her lies the moulding of unborn nations. If she is bold, if she is masculine, so will her daughter become, and may there nor, by a strange commingling and con glomeration brought about by herself, arise a horrible warping of her child's character ? Will not the girls grow unmaidenly. and the boys effeminate? God made no weaker than man, but at the same time He being All Good it will all be rectified He has made us not only the guide bur the shrine for weary man. We are the pure things of life. Though more than flowers we are like them expected to bring only sweetness, and light to dark places. Tbe Madonna faces of our mothers when they rocked us to sleep, bear vivid testimony that we can build no better than they in the good old fashioned doc trines of truth, modesty and religion.

Miss Marie Celeste Ayer of This City Files Suit For 9222.5 ti Damage Miss Marie Celeste Ayer, art teacher in Shorter college, and one of Rome’s most b’ autiful and talented young ladies, is suing the United States Cas ulaly Company, of New York for $222.85 damage. • Last summer Miss Ayer took a trip to Europe, and while en route from Atlanta to Portsmouth wafi bitten on tbe right cheek by a spider. The pain was very severe while crossing tbe Atlantic, and gave ber much trou ble during her stay abroad. Miss Ayer is a strikingly beautiful young lady, and while tbe bide of tbe spider has given her much pain, it has in no way disfigured her. She has filled suit against theacci dent company both in Atlanta and in this city. The insurance company refused to pay damages on the ground that the policy did not cover a spiders bite. Rowell & Rowell represent Miss Ayer in Rome, and Dorsey, Brewster & Howell in Atlanta. Tbe amout claimed by the plaintiff is $222 85 with interest from July 24, 1897, twenty-five per cent, damages and SIOO attorney fees. It is contend ed that tbe policy insured tbe bolder against any loss caused by bodily in juries which were effected solely by external violent and accidental means. The violence of the attack is indicat ed by the following extract from the petition: “At tbe time it did not occur to her that the injury was at all serious, nor did she think it was of a serious na ture until after she bed sailed for Europe on the steamer City of Rome. On Thursday, June 10th, tbe wound produced by the spider bad become very painful. Your petitioner Was at tended by competent physicians on board of tbe steamer who treated her lanced said wound and prescribed for her from time to time until ber arrival at Glasgow, Scotland. On the 12th day of June, 1897, tbe entire right side ; of petitioner’s face was swollen, so much so that ber mouth and right eye were dosed. She was totally die-' abled by said wound from the 2d day day of June, 1897, until the 24th day of July, 1897, and she has not yet re covered from said wound. Dr. Will Johnson, of Rome, is at present her attending physician. Tbe wound was of such a serious nature and virulent character that it had to be dressed »very fifteea minute* for several 4«ra.’’ Fahy’s Trade Palace-1 $ d r BA V Mr*? rr "uii vii Manufacturing Is a depart/ Druggits, meut of our immense busi/ ness so iie us jou are not fa/ miliar with.
