I MISS MARY E. WRIGHT, .. . Editress
ORPHANS’ HOME.
Ajtual report of Georgia Baptist Or
phans’ Home, read at LaGrange,
May 1892.
We regret that Mrs. W. J. North
en who was to have given this report
was unable to be present at the
Woman’s Missionary Union owing to
the extreme illness of a grand child.
It is with gratitude we acknowl
edge the loving favor of our Heaven
ly Father in this branch of woman’s
work, while the growth in the State
has not been what we could wish,
yet there are many Woman’s Mis
sionary Societies, who have appoint
ed sub-committees to work in the
churches. It is very impoitant that
these should be appointed in each
church and the name of the chairman
given by postal to our Correspond
ing Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs.
A. J. Moore, 104 Crew street,
in this way, we can know just who
are authorized by the W. M. S. or
churches to work for us we do not
wish any agents in the field, but
rather let us have these sub-cemmit
teess with a chairman in direct
communication with our secretary.
If you have not such a committee in
your church, immediately organize
one, what does it consist of ? from
three to five ladies as the work de
mands, one to be chosen chairman,
who is put in direct communication
with Corresponding Secretary. These
are to solicit annual members at
tl.oo per year, life members at §SO,
or smaller contributions and dona
tions of provisions, are earnestly so
licited. When the Lord requires
more of us He enlarges our work.
We had so many applications for
children and were crowded in such
close quarters that the last of Janua
ry moved to Dr. Connelly’s old resi
dence, No. 31 Waverly Place, or No.
1 Washington street. We could see
a change in the children a short time
after the removal. Our rent was in
creased greatly, but with added
growth there must be more expense.
Twenty-four children are now in the
Home, with Mrs. Crutchfield and one
assistant. Mrs. Crutchfield has given
perfect satisfaction in the manage
ment of the Home and control of
children. Her health is not firm and
yet she is always at her post of duty.
I think you could scarcely find any
where a healthier, rosier, happier set
of children. There has been measels,
mumps and colds among the chidren,
but owing to the watch care of the
matrons and the faithfulness of our
physician, Dr. J. W. Armstrong, no
deaths have occurred.
Our Advisory Board are looking
for a location upon which to build
our Home. Our thanks are due
them for their hearty co-operation
and interest in our work.
The Executive committee, under
Mrs. A. J. Orme, has rendered efli
cient work.
We have added another branch to
our departments of work—that of
fancy work. Mrs. Mary Fitzgerald
has been made chairman of this and
we do hope that those who are gifted
in fancy or plain work willl do as did
our sisters when the tabernacle was
erected—send in their offerings, and
receive the reward. Direct to Mrs.
Mary Fitzgerald, Georgia Baptist
Orphans’ Home and it will come all
right and be acknoweldged.
We are asking now individuals or
societies to take a child and clothe it.
Several have responded—Miss Ade
lane Adair, of 2nd and Miss Flor
ence Greene, of Ist Baptist Church,
Atlanta, Societies of Barnesville,
Rome, Millen and we hope there are
many others to follow. We pro
pose for the child to wear a badge
with society name printed on it. We
also wish some to provide for their
beds in this way. How easy it will
be if each one does his or her part.
“The Lord loveth a cheerful giver.”
Our children all who are old
enough attend the public school and
some of their names head the roll of
honor, all are doing well. The do
nation which have been sent, have
been thankfully received, and we
wish to speak especially of the young
ladies of LaGrange Southern Female
College and Shorter College, Rome.
They have both sent us valuable do
nations in clothing and the former
has given us a keg of syrup, which
is to be given annually for ten years.
Many Christmas boxes found their
way to the Home to gladden the
hearts of the children and the giv
ers would have been more than re
paid could they have heard the chil
dren’s exclamations of delight and
seen the joy beaming in the faces of
the workers in* the Home. Our
thanks are due many, for gifts and
liberal donations who are not Bap-
tists and to Dr. Armstrong for his
watchful care of the children’s health,
Dr. Hobbs and Dr. Charles Roy for
treatment of the eyes, and Dr’s.
Crenshaw and Dental Surgical Insti
tute for care of the teeth. We re
gret to say we have to report this
year only 150 annual members at
§I.OO per year. How few realize
the importance of giving and that it
is a blessed privilege, for “the Lord
loveth a cheerful giver;” that must
have been one of the reasons why
He commended the widow's mite.
He knew the heart that prompted
the gift. If we can only give a mite,
let us support our Baptist Orphan’s
Home. The following is our Annual
Report.

APPEAL FOR THE ORPHAN'S.
During the recent Convention of
Southern Baptists in Atlanta, my
heart was made to feel glad, over the
increase of work, and the warm zeai
manifested among Baptist men and
women. It was beautiful to see so
many, who represented thousand’s
of others, in such loving accords
over the grand work, for our Master.
To see gracious, lovely womanhood,
from her own high natural sphere,
aiding with heart and hand, the
spread of the gospel “to every crea
ture,” as enjoined by her Saviour.
All this stirred and thrilled me; but
there was another branch of work,
which touched me still deeper. Not
because of its greater importance,
but because it is one part of Baptist
wmrk which, I feel that we have not
fully arisen to. I allude to the
Georgia Baptist Orphan’s Home. I
wanted to make an appeal through
your columns for these little ones
whom God has given as a precious
charge into our hands, and I pray
Him to keep before us in this work.
His assurance. “In as much as ye
do it unto the least of these, ye do it
unto me.” The safest plan, the only
true and acceptable one of doing and
giving in our Master’s service is to
bring of the first fruits, and with
system and regularity. Not with
sposmodic zeal, and then a long rest.
So I feel in regard to these little or
phans. Oh! me, lam sure no lov
ing warmth need to be inspired in
their behalf in mother heists. De
prived as they are of the sweetest
and purest and most unselfish and
patient, of all Ged’s good gifts,
motherly love and care, how can we
refuse to take this burden squarely
upon us. By all the fondness we
give our own little ones, by all the
devotion we cherish for our precious
mothers, some around the Great
White Throne now, we should
awake to duty in this cause.
The Baptist women of Atlanta,
are nobly and faithfully doing their
duty, and it is not right to allow the
whole burden to rest upon them.
The idea that it is an Atlanta Bap
tist Orphans’ Home is erroneous. It
is a Georgia Baptist Orphans’ Home.
Our Methodist brothers and sisters
have made the Home for their or
phans, a credit and an honor to them
selves. God bless them for it, and
prosper their work. But shall we
allow ourselves to be outdistanced by
them in zeal and good works? We
who claim to show our faith by our
works.
Oh! surely this is for Christ.
My proposition is this. In order
to systematize the aid right at once,
I wanted to ask every Woman’s
Missionary Society, of our denomi
nation in Georgia, to give every
quarter, a portion of the dues col
lected, to the Georgia Baptist Or.
phans* Home. Give whatever they
see fit to; but much or little let it
be sent regularly. This will increase
no burdens, but will only divide the
fund differently. I beg all the presi
dents of societies who read this let
ter, to consider it and talk it, to the
members of their societies in regular
session. All that Christian women
need, is only to see the right, so
please dear sisters urge this. Give
quarterly, a portion of your society
income to our Orphans’ Home. Mrs.
A. J. Moore, 124 Crew Street At
lanta, is the worty secretary and
treasurer of the Home, and contribu
tion may be sent to her.
If our Georgia Baptist Women
will do this, in full accord, and thus
secure a regular quarterly income
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX.- THURSDAY, MAY 26. 1892.
for our Home, mark my words; be
fore very long, our brethoren will
catch our zeal for this work and
under our united influence, a build
ing will be erected, which will he wor
thy of us, and our home will be
placed on a solid foundation. Oh!
who can tell of the power for good
hidden away in this work, now
crar.'ped and undeveloped. Please
dear sisters consider what 1 have
written, and let us act together upon
it. We are the weaker vessels, to
lead the stronger to action. Our
hearts tell us, we can do it. Let our
highest motive be, for Christ sake,
and may He graciously guide us, and
lead us up to our full measure of
duty. Mrs. J. T. Olive.

ABOUT THE HOUSE.
Shemeasuredouttho butter with a very sol
emn nlr;
The milk and sugar also; and she took the
greatest care
To count the eggs correctly, and to add a little
bit
. Os baking powder, which you know beginners
oft omit.
Then she stirred it altogether and she baited
it full an hour;
But she never quite forgave herself for leav
ing out the flour. —Judge.
Flat Rock, Ga.—My conscience
has been awakened from its lethargy
and I will try and add my little mite
of experience to help the sisters*
Others have given recipes for the
delicacies of life, mine will bo more
for the necessities. We all have to
eat bacon sometimes, and I have
found it very palatable to slice, then
soak for an hour or two in cold wa
ter, then beat, roll in flour, season
with pepper and onions and fry, and
it tastes very much like steak. An
other way, is to hash cold boiled
meat, season with butter, (just a lit
tle sweet-milk, pepper and onions.)
If the sisters are troubled with smok
ing lamps, they can make them as
good as new to boil the burners for
half hour in soap-suds.
Mrs. C. J. Willis.
CLOSETS.
Closets devoted to shelves are apt
to have the shelves too far apart,
causing the first shelf to be the only
one of much value. The average
carpenter puts the shelves in every
closet impartially twenty inches
apart. In linen closets, or closets
devoted to storing bedding, such
generous spaces are well suited; but
in thq ordinary cupboard twelve or
fifteen inches between shelves is am
ple space, and allows two or three
shelves to be convenient for general
use.
The protection of clothing from
insect enemies when stored away is
Tin unending bother. The wary bee
tle and the elusive moth-miller scoff
at camphor, enjoy tarine balls, crawl
calmly over tarred paper, wiggle
through cracks of the cedar closet,
and persistently edge their way im
partially into cedar or pine box.
The only safety is to put clean, (eith
er sponged, washed or steamed) well
beaten, well-sunned garments, first
into muslin, either old or coarse, and
then to wrap closely in newspaper.
Insects have no appetite for either
cotton or printer’s ink. This double
precaution, however, makes it impos
sible to tell one garment from anoth
er in its mummy-like wrappings, so
it follows that every parcel must be
labelled. Then it is difficult to re
member which closet has this or that
parcel. A large sheet of paper tack
ed on the inside of each closet door
or lid of chest or trunk makes it
easy to write down each bundle as it
is put away, and will show at any
time the contents of each receptacle.
—Agnes Ormsbee in “The House
Comfortable.”
LADIES' DRESS.
The woman who knows what suits
her complexion, what style of dress
gives grace to her figure, and what
kind of material produces a harmo
nious ensemble is the successful
dresser among women.
Flowers can be worn at the belt,
or a single rose can adorn a dress,
or a bunch of loose flowers can be
carried in the hand; but even this
beautiful decoration should not be
excessive in quantity at any time.
A load of rings destroys the sym
metry of a beautiful hand. A single
stone in a good setting adds much to
a hand’s elegance and beauty.
Jewelry should never be worn in
the morning, nor much of it in the
street. Diamonds have their place
only with married ladies—then only
on grand occasions—but in the
street never at any time.
Young ladies have adopted pearls,
and opals may be worn, unless the
old superstition is against them.
Youth needs no adornment; fresh
ness and beauty are the greatest of
all decorators, and simple dressing
enhances all faces.
The use of cosmetics, perfumery
in excess, penciling the eye-brows
and bleaching the hair, do not assist
nature in any way; but a good wash
for the face once a day with corn
meal gives lustre to the skin, tone to
the flesh and color to the cheek.
Pot-pie.—This may be made of
any kind of poultry or meat, either
raw or that has been previously
cooked.
If you have a pound or two of
cold roast beef or mutton left from
yesterday’s dinner, cut it from the
bones in rather thick, oblong pieces.
Break the bones, cover them with
water and let them simmer two or
three hours for the gravy. An hour
before dinner time, strain this, gravy
into the sauce-pan you wish to make
the pot-pie in. Put in the meat and"
add water enough to cover it well.
Season to taste with butter, pepper
and salt; let it boil thirty minutes,
then add a half dozen potatoes cut
small, and stir a batter with a pint of
flour, a heaping teaspoonful of bak
ing-powder, and milk enough to
make a very stiff batter. As soon
as the water boils after the potatoes
are put in, drop the batter in spoon
fuls over them, cover the saucepan
closely and let it boil steadily for
twenty minutes, when it will be
ready to serve and the crust be as
light as a feather. There must not
be water enough to boil over the
dumplings, only enough to boil up
over the potatoes before the dump
lings are put in.
To serve,*, put the dumplings
around the edge of the platter and
the meat, potatoes and gravy in the
center.
, Cold roast turkey, chickens or
veal may be used in the same way.
Care of the Hair.—The hair
will gather dust and needs washing
occasionally as much as the face and
hands, though of course not as often.
Hair keeps its color afid gloss much
better if, whenever it Begins to seem
dirty, it is given a good shampooing.
To a wash-bowl of 1 'warm water
add a tablespoonful ‘6f borax and
wash the scalp flfftd ihtfli* thoroughly;
rinse it well ifi’ f clear, warm water
and you will bd surprised at the dirt
that will come ortt. Wfipe the hair
well with dry towels atid do not put
it up until it is perfectly dry.
Brush the haii^with' ’ long strokes
for ten minutes evei 4 y night and
morning. Do nolJ'lM' ft brush stiff
enough to hurt the scalp, but one of
medium stiffness, tile bristles of
which are long and bfbse together.
Banana Pie.—Peel ( two banan
as, press them a colander
and add one pint of' milk and two
tablespoonfuls oi smjar. Stir these
well together until smooth,
then add a little salt, a 'teaspoonful
of lemon extract and two well-teat
,, J. fflfM
en eggs. Bake m one crust m a
00 tvft
moderate oven. This quantity will
make one pie.
u n>l
A pretty baby! Rqsebud mouth,
sunny eyes and softly* curling hair—
but ears! such ears! However, you
can mold a baby’s features at your
will, say people who know. It would
only be kindness to train outgrowing
ears and persuade them to assume
the normal attitude of these impor
tant features. In sleep, when the
child turns from side to side, ears
that are not naturally flat are bent
forward and their peculiarity in
creased. To obviate this the doting
mother who wishes a future reward
of gratitude can make a cap of tape,
which will hold back the ears and
compel them to grow properly.

THE TELEPHONE.
"Oh, a rose and a pink have bloomed to-dav!”
Said little lame It nth to her mother.
"I watched them open, leaf by leaf;
And they nodded to each other.
As if there was something they wished to say—
A secret, you know—and there was no way.
“And then a spider with wondrous skill—
You’ll hardly believe it, mother—
Stretched a web from the pink to the rose,
So they could talk to each other.
And ever since then their heads are still.
For they say through their telephone what
they will.’’ —St. Nicholas.
KITTIE AND THE OROOUB.
Kittte wasn’t pleased at all be
cause mamma said she couldn’t go
out to play until she had learned her
geography lesson. She pouted,
looked very naughty, and said she
wished there wasn’t any old geogra
phy, nor any Europe, nor Africa, nor
any old China. Then she sat her
self down hard in any easy chair,
began watching some bright little
crocuses her mother had put in a
prctty'vase on the mantel. And the
first thirfg little Kittie know she had
slipped off to slumberland. Then, in
a dream, she began talking to the
crocuses, and, funniest of all the lit
tle flowers answered her.
“I hate lessons,” said Kittie.
“Dear me, it wouldn’t have done at
all for us to have hated them,” said
one little crocus.
“You!” cried Kittie. “Why, it
can’t be flowers have to learn les
sons ! ”
“Indeed, we do,” said another cro
cus. “I’m sure you’d think so, if you
could only have seen what hard ones
Mother Nature set us to learn.”
“Oh, do tell me about them! ” and
Kittie could feel that her eyes grew
large with astonishment at what the
crocus said.
“Why, in the first place,” began a
wee crocus, whose voice was just a
little tinkle, “Mother Nature said we
must try, very slowly, to push our
way up through the earth, because
we could never see daylight unless
we helped ourselves. There’s noth
ing else a flower likes so well as sun
shine and fresh air. The dew comes
down to us as we lie all covered up
in the warm earth, but the daylight
and the fresh spring air we must
work for. So Mother Nature taught
us to keep pushing, and to keep our
selves folded close, to be patient and
brave, to take in all the dew we
could, to keep on trying and trying,
until, by and by, we would be able
to peep above the ground, and come
up into a world of beautiful light
and bloom. One little discontented
thing, that had a little bed close to
mine, get tired of obeying her daily
lessons, striving to push up the spread
her tiny shoots of green, and so Moth
er Nature said, “Oh, well, if the lit
tle wayward root didn’t want to be
come a bright, lovely flower, all she
had to do was to do nothing, just to
keep quiet, make no effort, but stay
where she was, and as she was.’
And because Mother Nature is just,
and wouldn’t do more for one of us
than she did for others, that foolish
bulb wouldn’t work a bit, nor learn
her daily lesson of push and trust, so
there she is in the earth yet, just a
little useless root, no form, no color,
nor anything nice or wise. But the
rest of us believed what good Moth
er Nature said, for she promised if
we were good and obedient, and
learned our lessons well, we should
each have a lovely dress when we
came up into the outer world. And
true enough! Just see my shining
yellow gown, and my little mates
how lovely they are in white and
purple and gay listening stripes ev
ery one likes to look at. It was
charming to come out into fresh
sweet air and bright sunlight, and
now we enjoy being in this cheerful
room, with so many curious pretty
things to look at.”
“Yes, but you didn’t have to learn
old geography lessons,” said Kittie.
“No,” said another crocus, we
didn’t need to. What we need we
had to learn, and just what you need
you will have to learn. We don’t
live very long, you know, but that
doesn’t trouble us, because we know
when we are done with as we are
now, Mother Nature in some way
uses us over again, and nothing ever
hurts us. We can’t feel in away
that makes us suffer. But a little
being like you must need to know a
great deal more than a flower, and
everything in this world that lives
and grows and refuses to learn its
learn its lessons well is naughty, and
must stop growing like the poor sil
ly little crocus that is down in the
earth yet. I should think it must
be dreadful to stop growing,” and
the crocus sighed.
“But I can’t stop growing,” said
Kittie.
“Something stops,” insisted the
crocus. “Mother Nature taught us
that just as soon as anything refuses
to do its duty, and help itself,growth
must stop, and she always told us
the truth, always.”
This made Kittie feel so uncomfor
table, she awoke all at once with a
start.
“What made you jump so?” asked
her mamma.
Kittie laughed.
“Why, mamma,” she said, “I went
to sleep and dreamed your little cro
cuses talked to me, and told mo if I
didn’t learn my lessons and help my
self, something about me would stop
growing. I told them that I couldn’t
stop growing, but they still said if I
didn’t study, and do my duty some
thing would stop growing.’’
“That is very true, my little girl,”
said mamma soberly, “the best part
of my Kittie is her mind, her soul;
that is going to live on forever. What
a dreadful thing it would be, if while
your body, which is merely a cover
ing for your soul, should go on grow
ing, your precious soul remained
dark and small, something like the
foolish little crocus that wouldn’t
try to grow. I think that would be
worse than to have tho body remain
small, a great deal worse.”
“I guess I’ll go and study my ge«-
ography,” said Kittle. And the next
thing that mamma knew the lesson
was all nicely learned, and happy
little Kittte was chasing some little
white butterflies that were flitting
about over the crocus bed.—Chris

PRIMARY CLASS MOSAICS.
BY ANNIE W. ARMSTRONG.
THE RAINBOW.
In the bright, beautiful springtime,
with its freshness of life in tree and
flower and grass, it is well to direct
the attention of the little ones to
God’s loving kindness in all this dis
play of beauty, connecting it with
some thoughts from his holy word
which shall remain as a permanent
association in the mind. The rain
bow, a never ceasing wonder and
delight to old as well as young,
affords a charming opportunity for
an exercise that may Interest the
mind by information given, delight
the eye with pleasing colors, and
store the heart with rich jewels from
the treasure chamber of the King.
The following preliminary questions
may be helpful;
How many letters in r-a-i-n-b-o-w ?
Seven.
How many colors? Seven.
Name them. Red, orange, yellow,
green, blue, indigo, and violet.
When do we see the rainbow?
After a rain in springtime.
Os what is the promise? That
God will never again destroy the
world with a flood.
Tell or draw from the class the
story of the flood.
When the children shall be well
drilled upon the above questions and
answers, they will be prepared in
telligently to study the Scripture
texts of the exercise. With chalks
corresponding in colors to those of
the rainbow, write the first letter “R”
on the blackboard, making it the be
ginning of a half-circle. Then teach
the following texts, explaining each
one and requiring its perfect repeti
tion before placing another letter on
the board.
“R—ejoice in the Lord always:
and again I say unto you, Re
joice.”
“A—ll things work together for
good to them that love God.”
“I—will never leave the nor for
sake thee.”
“N—owis the accepted time; be
hold, now is the day of salva
tion.”
“B—e of good cheer; it is I, be
not afraid.”
“O—nly believe; all things are
possible to him that believeth.”
“W—atch and pray that ye enter
not into temptation.”
While the study of consecutive
verses of Scripture is important and
necessary for young and old alike,
the time of the Sabbath school ses
sion is too limited to engage in it
very frequently. This duty must
devolve on the parents or guardians
at home, who ought never to con
sider Sunday school instruction a
substitute for their own. Specially
selected texts, carefully explained,
may more profitably occupy the ses
sion, therefore, than connected por
tions.
A very attractive anniversary ex
ercise was with the above
recitation. From behind a pillar on
a platform the upper end of two
thirds of a rainbow arch was sprng,
the lower end reaching the floor, and
hid in flowering plants. The arch
(made of wood) was covered with
tissue paper of rainbow hues, in
horizontal lines, and then covered
again with three or four thicknesses
of tarlatan to harmonize the colors.
Seven little children stood under the
arch holding a wand wound and
tipped with a ribbon of a single rain
bow color, the seven colors follow
ing in order. A little boy, standing
to the front, his wand wound with
all of the colors, called out the let
ters of rainbow. As each letter was
called, a child advanced, repeating
the text correspoding to the letter.—

for honesty and integrity. For many
years he has worked for Mr. D. P. Wil

oftheGeneva Board of Health. Hesays:
“ I was taken sick last October with gastrio
fever and my chance for recovery was con
sidered almost hopeless. After 7 weeks the
fever slowly left me, but I could not eat the
simplest food without terrible distress. It
seemed that I had recovered from the fever to

I took pepsin compounds, bismuth, charcoal,
cod liver oil and malt until my physician
confessed that his skill was about ex
hausted and ho did not know what else to
try. Everything I took seemed like pour

pened to think I had part of a bottle of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla that had been in the house for two
or three years, that I found had benefited mo
previously for dyspepsia. I began taking it
and soon began to feel better. I havo now
taken a little over two bottles and can truth

thing without distressing me, oven to
