TOO MUCH OF A LADY.
When Eve in the garden was plucking the rose,
And enjoying the Eden walks shady,
I wonder if ever she turned up her nose,
And sighed, “I’m too much of a lady!
Too much of a ladr, dear Adam, to work:
A helpmeet was made to be petted,
You keep things in order; I really mustshirk,
Though the fact, dear, is deeply regretted.”
To-d.iy she has daughters whose delicate hands
Are wholly unfitted for labor;
It almost fatigues them to flutter their fans
When they languidly call on a neighbor.
Their mission on earth is to gossip and dress,
And live upon life’s sweetest honey,
\nd they haven’t a bother or trouble, unless
Their mswun.w v rd'‘ i money
it isn’t the loveliest thing, to b etirc,
To dabble in cooking and dishes,
But never a home was kept tidy and pure,
By dainty, jesthetical wishes.
I am free to confer* there is something in life
More attractive than putting a Btiteh in;
And iusny aweary, industrious wife
Isn’t deeply in lovo with her kitchen.
But duty is duty, and dirt always dirt,
And only the lazv deny It;
Crocheting is nicer than making a shirt
But man never yet was clothed by it.
To sit iu a parlor, in indolent ease,
Till one grows all fragile and fady,
Or flounce through the streets, silly gaze?s to
please,
Is being too much of a lady.
foo much of a lady to darn up hose,
Or govern her house with acumen;
Too much of a lady, wherever she goes,
To ever be much of a woman!
Che m>cles that God made, are useless to her,
Except to be wrapped up in satin;
And as for an intellect—she would prefer
A bonnet to mastering Latin.
Too much of a 1 ady to own a grand heart,
To be a true daughter or mother;
Too much of a lady to bear the brave part
That ne’er can be borne by another;
By fashion or birth quite too fine for this earth,
When it comes to tho judgment’s g>eat pay
day,
Though our Lord may delight in the lilies in
white,
Will He smile on “Too much of a lady? ”
There is as important a distinction
between the instructor and tne edu
cator as between knowledge and ed
ucation. Knowledge on a variety of
subjects is useful and convenient, and
is necessary to education; but the
two are as clearly distinguishable
from each other as the rain and the
earth and the sun hine and the plant
they conspire to produce. The mere
acquisition of words and the memor
izing of scientific facts and principles
are only the means to the end, and
oot even that, when they fail, as they
often do to produce proper results.
This mistaken notion of education —
one too common among parents at
this time—appears in such oft-rt
pea ted and half-triumphant questions
as“ What is the use of studying Latin,
Greek,metaphysics and Higher math
ematics? Will my children ever
use them in every day life?” Such
querists stem ignorant of the fact
ihat the proper pursuit of these sub
jects, under the guidance of the real
teacher, secures results and induces
habits of the utmost value through
life, though all that may be learned
in school should be wholly forgotten.

CARTERSYILLE, GA., THURSDAY, APRIL 14, 1881.
THE CHURCH AS A PLACE OF
DRESS PARADE.
Everywhere, we believe, both in
cities and in the country, people put
on their best clothes to go to church.
Neither the reproofs of ecclesiastics
nor the sarcasm of wits have ever
prevented those who go up to the
temple from being more concerned
about the appearance of their person
than about the state of their hearts.
Yet is that one of the most crying
sins of civilization. In the first place
nothing can be more blasphemous
thaD to conue before God with words
of worship on our lips, when our
thoughts are occupied wholly on our
own dress and the dross otour neigh
bors. But this is not the worst. One
err eat purpose—or we should rather
say the great purpose—for which we
keep up religious service is to per
suade men to be better. Now when
we make the church a place of dress
parade, we exclude a large portion of
those we seek to benefit. In every
community there are people who are
not able to procure such apparrel as
will fit them to appear in a finely
dressed congregation. Few of these
have lets pride than piety. Rather
than appear at so serious a disadvan-
tage they will forego hearing the
truths of the gospel. In this way
the very class which stands in most
need of preaching is to an extent ex
cluded from its benefits. This is es
pecially the case in large cities where
the very rich and the very poor are
brought into juxtaposition. There
the poor—and who, perhaps because
poor are also sinful—can’t go where
the best preaching and the best sing
ing are heard. For the woman whose
daily toil enables her to procure a
plain calico will not go where the
leaders of fashion are rustling in
silks and sparkling in diamonds.
The mechanic, be he ever so eager to
gather up some crumbs of gospel
truth, will not show his shabby cost
where merchants and Bankers are exx
hibiting their shining broadcloth.
Ah ! if Christian people were a little
more consistent in their Christianity,
-■ rnt v* w “*' * - *-i
low men forego this show of dress at
church, and the wealthy would go in
such plain garbs that the poor would
not feel humiliated by their pres
ence.
A REMARKABLE OPERATION.
Atlanta Constitution ]
For several years past Mrs. General
ho well Cobb, of Athens, has been
troubled with a cataract over her
right eye, and for the past year has
been totally blind. Some days ago
she came to Atlanta for the purpose
of having the cataract removed, and
stopping at the Kimball house, sent
for Dr. Calhoun.
The doctor was conversant with
Mrs. Cobb’s troubles, having been
called to Athens to see her, and ex
pressed the belief that tbe removal
of the cataract would restore her
sight. Sunday last the operation was
undertaken at Mrs. Cobb’s room in
the Kimball house, and after quits
an amount of troublesome and tedi
ous labor successfully ended. Daring
the entire operation Mrs. Cobn refus
ed to take chloroform, and with a
heroism rarely seen, endured the
pain. Hardly had the doctor said,
“there, ’tis done,” than Mrs. Cobb
cried out, “I see, I see,” and she did
see.
For one year Mrs. Cobb has been
totally blind, and to-day, but for th
learned dexterity of Dr. Calhoun, her
condition would be the same. Prob
ably no city in the Union is blessed
with a greater benefactor than At
lanta has in the generous, unselfish
Calhoun, who is giving his time and
knowledge to the alleviation of the
troubles of others.
There is a singular coincidence in
the experience of Garfield and Hayes.
Both went into office with strong
party support. Both were s ‘friend*
ofthe south.” Both began their ad
ministrations with a split in their
party, and both were attacked bj
stalwart wings. Conkling seems t<j
be destined to prove a stumbling
block in the way of presidents. H*

being able to do so, makes an at
tempt to ruin.

RED HAIR IN FASHION.
j Auburn-haired girls have come in
to fashion, says a New Yotk corres
pondent. Those who have fiery heads
by nature now account themselves
lucky. Lemon blondes have lost
their grip, and black heads join them
in envying the reds. Red hair is at
• tainable, but with considerable trou
; ble, for bleaching must be followed
; by dyeing, and the process requires
frequent repetition. Moreover, the
peculiar complexion that usually ac
companies red hair cannot be stimu
lated. It has a clear pallid hue for a
groundwork (and this might by itself
be counterfeited); but ou it appear
pale, reddish freckles, and to paint
them in would be too delicate an op
eration to undertake, Red hair is
becoming common on the street aud
in public assemblages, but the real
is so easily distinguished from the
false that the fashion is not likely to
last long. In the matter of hair dress
ing, whi'e it is no longer correct to
wear the hair high on the head, and
in voluminous puffs, braids and friz
zes, as was fashipDable only a year
ago, it is nevertheless evident that
the close, flat style of coiffure is going
out of date. Curls and loops are addl
ed from week to week,and gradually
we are returning to the elaborate
style of hair-dressing, which is really
the only one suitable for the comply
cated details of the general toilet of
to day. When done in red hair the
fussiness is effective. Women with
red hair are sailed “roasas.” When
attired with taste they are bewitch
ing—if they have fine complexions,
good features, animated and intelli
gent countenances, and eyes blue*
gray, dark brown or bronze-tinted.
They should dress in either very
dark o* very light colors. Grays,
drabs, yellows, bright blue, bright
green, mauve, lilac and rose do not
They may wisely wear black, dark
blue, dark violet, pearl and cream
white, water blue and the palest tints
of Nile green.
HOW MANY APPLES DID ADAM
Awn mrrL - *
Some say Eve 8 and Adam 2, a to
tal of 10 only.
We think the above figures entire
ly wrong. If Eve 8 and Adam 82,
certainly the total will be 90. Scien
tific men, however, on the strength
of tbe theory that the antediluvians
were a race of giants, reason some
thing like this: Eve 8 1 and Adam 8
2, a total of 163.
Wrong again. What could be clear
er than if Eve 8 I and Adam 8 12,
the total was 893?
If Eve 8 1 Ist and Adam 8 12,
would not the total be 1,623?
George Washington fays Eve 8 14
Adam and Adam 8 12 4 Eve; to
gether they got away with 8,938.
Bu' if Eve 8 14 Adam, Adam 8 12
4 2 oblige Eve; total, 82,056.
We think this, however, not a suf
ficient quantity, for though we ad
mit that Eve 8 14 Adam, Adam, if
he 81 2, 81242 keep Eve company.
Total, 81,282,056.
Everybody is wrong again. Eve,
when she 8 1, 8 1 2 many, and prob
ably felt sorry for it, but her compan*
ion, iu order to relieve her sorrow, 8
12. Therefoie Adam, jf he 81,8 1 4

both ate 81,896,864.
A correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun says: ‘‘Connecticut avenue seems
to be the favorite locatioa for resi
dences for the diplomatic corps. A
few years ago the British govern
ment erected a magnificent building,
containing about seventy apart
ments, for the use of its ambassador,
on this avenue at the intersection of
N street. It is the only government
which owns its own legation build
ing in Washiugton, but other gov
ernments are contemplating follow
ing the example of Great Britain,
and either purchasing or erecting
buildings for their embassies. A
number of other governments have,
however, rented buildings on Con
necticut avenue for the use of their
representatives. The Chinese lega
tion occupy the splendid mansion of
ex-Governor Shepherd, on the cor
ner of Connecticut avenue and K
street. The Russian minister occu
pies a residence a residence just on
the north. The French legation are
on the corner, and in the same block
are the Austrian, Turkish and Ital
ian legations.”

HOW CONGRESS PASSES A BILL
In reply to a correspondent who
asks for information on the subject,
the New York Journal of Commerce
says: “One branch of Congress passes
a bill and senes it to the other. If
the latter adopts it precisely as it
passed it then it goes to the Presi
dent for his approval. But if the
bill is amended or changed on its
passage in the other branch, it is
sent back with such changes to the
house in which it originated. If
these amendments are there adopted
it then goes to the President, but if
adopted only in part it comes back
again to the second branch, where
the vote is to recede irom the amend
ments or to insist upon them. If
the body insist then a committee of
conference is appointed, and these
two committees meet. If they agree
on a report then the bill as reported
is voted on again in each bouse. If
they disagroe, each reports, and
sometimes anew committee is ap
pointed, and sometimes the bill fails.
But if it passes both Houses tben the
President signs it, if he approves; if
he disapproves, he returns it within
ten days to the house in which it
originated, with his objections. If
that house passes it again by a two
third vote It goes to the other branch
of Congress, and if it pasees by a two
third vote it becomes a law. There
is no arbiter between any of the par
ties.
BUY A HOME.
Every man should own his home if
be can. The philosophy which tells
a man to drift over this uncertain life
without a home like a ship out in the
open sea at the hazard of the storm,
is bad philosophy.
A man who owns his home is like
a ship that has arrived in port and is
moored iu a safe harbor. One man
should be no more content to live In
a home that is not his own, if he can
build one, thau one bird should take
the risk of hatching in another one’*
nest. If a windfall has come to you s
buy a home. Do not let anybody
bnCk hffd'pdrti. Vivrt tjrrougji id
buy a home, and buy it. Put thv
rest back if you will, gamble with ir
it you must, but buy the home first.
Buy it and sell it not. Then the roses
that bloom there are yours; the cle
matis and jessamine that climb upon
the porch belong to you. You have
planted them and seen them grow.
When you are at work upon them
you are not working for others. If
there are chi dren there are flowers
within tbe house and. without. Buy
a home.
Here are a couple of pen pictures
of cabinet members by Gath, which
are worthy of Macaulay:
“ The new Attorney General is
giving considerable trouble, because
he is a triangular quantity, and
scratches at every point of contact.
Whenever you sit down on him you
ait down on him sharp. He has
written, and sublimated and orated
and been like one of those newspaper
men youfoccasionally see, who thinks
his destiny has been turned aside,
and that he ought to have been a lit
erary man. McVeagh thinks he
ought not to be a politician in order
to be a statesman —forgetful that the
two things go together, just as the
chrobiclc is essential to the litera
ture.
“I heard i* said in New Orleans
