It may interest women to know that Ihc first Jewelry store was started in the city of Cl.ang On about 3,000 years ago. The Celestial Vanderbilts and Astors of that period knew nothing of the fascination of diamonds, be cause diamonds were not in vogue at that B. C, period. Pearls and jade and coral and other unpolished mineral substances had to content them, and as if to make good the glitter of rivieres and tier as, the Princesses of Chang On employed ar tisans to fashion them the most won derful gold and silver ornaments, which in themselves were far more costly than diamonds.

On the first of January. I became general manager of the Georgia In dustrial Home. I realize that. I have assumed a tremendous responsibility. But 1 have taken, tip the work with great faith. To use the language of the beloved founder, the late Dr. Mum ford, “I pledge my time, talent and en ergy” to this noble cause. In the beginning of my administra tion 1 find that we are facing a cris is. The fall in the price of cotton Is making it very difficult to raise mon ey and unless our friends rally to our support wc will fall behind. But tjle 130 children now in the home, must be fed and clothed and as far as pos sible, educated. We cannot turn them out upon the world. Nor can we re ject the applications to take mere which we arc constantly receiving We cannot turn a deaf car to thq piti ful cry of these homeless and help less little ones, which comes to us from all parts of Georgia. Thp home has thrown its doors wide open and stands ready to aid every destitute child in the state. It is well known that wc arc doing a work lhat no other charily among us does and a work that is indiHpcnsi ble to the stale and to society. Most of the children at tjie Georgia indus trial Home arc not t>f the class caret! for by other institutions. I appeal to the citizens of Georgia to come to our aid. Think of your own children. How well eayed for and how happy they are. How you love them. Imagine them thrown upon the mercy of the great big world. Imag ine them left alone in the sloughs of destruction to cry in vain for help. But for the Georgia Industrial Home that would be the plight of over a hundred children in our state today. Will not every man who loves human ity respond to the best impulses of the human heart and send us a contribu tion for this sweetest and most splen did charity in the south? You will help a worthy cause and your money will be judiciously used. While I con sider every child worth saving at any cost, 1 shall practice the strictest economy in the work.

FEBRUARY 1, 190 5 MRS. CODY SAYS BUFFALO BILL SQUANDERED WEALTH ON WOMEN CHEYENNE Wyo.. Feb. I.—Mrs. Louisa Cody lias tiled in the Laramie county court her amended answer to the petition of Col. W. F. Cod.v tßuf falo Hill) In his suit for a divorce, Mrs. Cody denies the charge of her husband that on December 2t>, 1900, or at any other time, site a tempted to poison him. and declares that during the thirty-eight years site lived with him as his wife she was ever a faith ful. obedient and chaste wife; that she nursed and cared for her husband in numerous sicknesses; that while Col. Cody provided well for herself and children during the last years that he lived with her. he did not pro vide for them in the early part of hit? married life; that during that early period he was an army scout on small salary, and that she assisted hint by dressmaking. When fortune came to him, she de clares, he squandered much money in gambling and carousing with disrepu table people of both sexes. During late years Col. Cody had given her large sums of money, and these funds she had Invested in property in and around North Platte, tile said invest ments being profliable ones, and that she was holding the property and ac cumulating a fortune for the joint use of herself and Col. Cody In thCir old age. Forgave Him Many Times. Mrs. Cody denies that Cod.v has been a I rue and faithful husband, and avers that he habitually consorted with other women, but that she con doned and torgave him numerous times on condition and with the prom ise that he would not repeat the of fense. Mrs. Cody names Miss Bessie Isbell as a eo-respondent. She charges that Buffalo Bill became enamored of Miss Isbell in 1900; that the girl was then etghten or nineteen years of age. and that Cody has been living with her since that time: that she travels with him as a press agent for the Wild West show, and that Cody never charged her with attempting to poison him until after he met this woman. Mrs. Cody recites a specific Instance in whirh Cod.v was untrue to her, it being in 1901. at Sherman. Tex., when Cody and Miss Isbell occupied the same room together. Mrs. Cody says that, in 1R93 Buffalo Bill lived for months with a woman in Chicago, and that when Mrs. Cody went to Chicago and asked her hus band to leave the woman the colonel refused, much to her mortification. The Czar’s Lost Opportunity. It is a sad thing for any man, no matter how humble, to fail to possess the full courage of his convictions — ■it is a terrible thing when such a ■ charge can he truthfully brought against such a mighty personage as the czar of Russia. Of all the comments made upon the revolution threatening in the un happy country of the czar, nothing Is more marked than the generally ex pressed regret that the man who might have made himself famed for all time as one of the greatest and wisest men known to history lost his matchless opportunity through coward ice. or some other attribute that should have been entirely foreign lo the descendant oi Peter the (treat. It is true that the strikes now as sume far less threatening propor tions than terrified the whole world last week, and it may be true that the attempt to turn the movement Into a political revolt will never bo success ful, but this has nothing to do with the indisputable fact that great harm has been done in a direction in which there is no possible hope for a rem edy. Generally, when a man or a nation loses an opportunity for a great good or a great gain, there Is the consol ing thought that, some time, some where, the loss may be made good; but, when a neglected chance such us that which was given to and then taken away from Czar Nicholas means a blow to the faith of a whole nation, then the matter Is Indeed hopeless. Faith is a very vital matter under all circumstances, whether it is the faith in God which makes for righ teous loving or the faith in the integ rity of the man with whom one does business; but it has no ..uman ex pression lhat makes it a more vitul thing than that phase of faith always displayed by the Russians in the czar, lovingly termed by them “The Little Father.” Through all its vicissitudes has Russia clung to this faith. He has been, for generations past, re garded as the direct representative l of Heaven on earth —as Senator Bev eridge puts it, “the annolnted of Jehovah, a being all but sacred and entitled to the moujlks' reverence in much the same way as is the Master Himself.” This has been graphically iiluslrated by Gen. Francis V. Greene, of the United States army, who In describing the fervid religious ser vices held Ity the Russian troops in front of Pieona during the Turkish war, painted the emperor as standing bareheaded and unattended in the cen ter of the thousand lighting men, and then kneeling on the ground with his head resting on the butt of his sword, while the kneeling men follow his lead in a solemn chant half obliterated by the booming of the cannon. Gen. Greene says; “Nothing eould give a clearer perception of the relations be tween the czar and bis men than this strongly impressive scene. The Rus sians have no fewer daily sins to an swer for than other people, but the feeling that binds the lower classes to ihetr czar is one of purely religious enthusiasm and veneration, and It.

Mrs. Cody denies the second cause for uetion in that she at no time of fered his guests indignities, as charg ed by Cody; and declares that shb never did offer the colonel such In dignities as to render Ids life Intolera ble; she never refused to entertain guests of Cody’s and never said that she hoped they would never eat .a her house Hgaln. • She admits, however, that site found fault with Cod.v for the reason that [many of the men and women that he had as guests were not the proper people for any self respecting man or woman to entertain Site denies that she ever refused to sign papers with the colonel and states that even now there is a mort gage on her property for $2,500, which was placed there to raise money for Cody. _ Mrs.' Cody charges her husband with being guilty of neglect, in that, the acts with which he charges her - with being guilty, if true at all, oc curred four years ago. and that, ac cording to the statutes of Nebraska, he cannot now r bring suit on those charges, and that the Wyoming law sustains thal part of the Nebraska law. In closing Mrs. Cod.v admits that Cody wired to her at the time of the death of their daughter. Aria, to bury the hatchet for the time, but she de nies Cody’s sensational charges that 1 she denounced him over the dead body of their daughter. Attorney Rldgely, for Cody, and At torney Wilcox, for Mrs. Cody, argued at great, length on the proposition of taking testimony in the esse. Trial Expected Next Month. Cody desires that taking testimony begin immediately, hut Mrs. Cody, owing to the serious illness of her father, asks that the case he contin ued indefinitely. In all probability the tuking of testimony will begin early in February and the actunl trial of the case will bo held in Sheridan about the last of February. .fudge Scott fixed Feb. 14 as the day inn which the taking of testimony in the Cody divorce case will begin. Col. Cody and a large number of wit inesses will be here at that time, and I it 1r expected that some highly sensa tional matter will be heard. Mrs. Cody and her witnesses will also be on hand prepared to prme Cody's relations with many women jduring the last quarter of a century. finds no counterpart elsewhere in these days.” And in one moment all this enthus iasm and veneration was given the death blow! We all know the slory of that dreadful day when the populace went to the czar for the redress of unendur able wrongs, and when the cry to the Little Father having been met with a death dealing volley from his sol dlers, the priest in the lead cried: "There is no czar! Wc must now be gin without him our struggle for na tional freedom.” All this would have been so much more comprehensible if Nicholas were as cruel as his grand dukes and pow erful ministers, but he is not a tyrant by nature, and he is said to positively sympathize with the principles for expressing which thousands of exiles are eve»y year sent to Siberia. Vance Thompson, In a recent article in “Sue ccbs,” declares that the fact of Count Leo Tolstoi, the most outspoken critic of the czar and of the Russian empire, being exenipt from punishment or im prisonment is proof positive of a cer tain sympathy by the czar for what the great author preaches and lives, lie tells us tnat Tolstoi owes his mi raculous freedom not to state policy, but to the czar—that Nicholas il, whose reign runs over forty degrees of latitude, and wiio is considered the sole representative to his subjects of God upon ean.., is hiirisi-lf a Tolstoist. He says that, the czar is a kindly, overworked, unhappy man; he writes vague, melancholy verses, rides a bi cycle, and lakes amateur photographs ■his amusements are few; Tolstoi's books appealed to the Slavic mysti cism in him. accorded with his dreamy love of humanity, and woke in him aspirations for peace on earth, and the fulfillment of the early Christians’ dreams of fraternity and equality lit love. He reads Tolstoi; he talks Tol stoi —as Edward Vil reads the rac ing guide and talks horses, and as William II reads everything and talks everything Between the czar, impris oned in absolute sovereignty and the free old man of Yasnala Polina, there is a strange bond of sympathy, both mental and spiritual. H<- tilso recalls the fact that an earlier*czar, Paul, had a similar feel ing for Tolstoi, when he was tle more than a lad. The young b<’o N. Tolstoi was at Sevansopol, shut up In the famous and terrible "Bastion H.” To the general-in-chief of his ar mies in the Crimea. Czar Paul wrote, with his own hand: “Bear in mind this voting officer. No disaster must he allowed to happen to this young man. who does so much honor to Rus sia.” Yet in those days he had not written much; but the Tolstois had always been favorites of the crown— from that, early ancestor wiio was a boon companion of Peter the Great down to his father and Leo N. Tolstoi himself. Though they have never met, his friendship for Tolstoi is al most. a cult. Not. all his ministers, and not the migmy band of archdukes can change his mind in this* matter, should they trare to do so; and that che government, as distinct from the czar, has its own reasons for leaving Tolstoi all this “liberty which binds him.” If only, the czar had one-tenth part of the grand independence of this man be is said to so ardently admire, how Only * ©J H | Dollar 111||| To get rid of Indigestion, —M | | J||j Dyspepsia, Sour Stomach, —i the Stomach or any other JjSj disorder due to Indigestion. - - j|!j DYSPEPSIA CURE Digests What You Eat I have been a dyspeptic all my life, have tried all kinds of Dyspepsia remedies, but continued to get worse.
