/ THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, JANUARY 31, 1913. *=&l C'ONOOC'TE.D MISS LIZZIE o. THQMAc? M THURSDAY. Tlie laggard sun. on frosty morn. Throws long low beams through stub ble corn. Against the sunset, naked trees Weave magic bredes and traceries. From woodman's axe the splinter bounds; The flicker.’s cheery tapping sounds; Ice thaws, and in the quickening flood Are vague, fond hopes of leaf and bud; Whi® \v! like fleck of living sky— Fu>Vfic;iged, a bluebird sweet flits by! -SARA ANDREW SHAFER. . CHAT. The eye is trained to see the beauty jf the sky. whether it happens to be blue, or pink or grey; the ear that finds melody in the twitter of little chickens— the low lovelanguage of the nesting brood—the sweep of the winds as. they go through'.the pines; the chatter of children at play, as well as orchestras, trained voices, or birds that seem to pour their little hearts out; the he^rt that finds contentment notwithsanding changed fortunes, is about as rare as that perfect June day. but just as much to be desired. When counting one's blessings do not forget to give thanks for “The sight of sunlit lands And dipping hills, the breath of even ing grass”— . Nature is a prodigal mother and her blessings would lighten many more hearts if the ears and eyes of the chil dren were taught to appreciate the little things, so called, of life. I heard a story LIFE’S STRUGGLE WITH ILLNESS Mrs. Stewart Tells How She Suffered from 16to45 years old—How Finally Cured. Euphemia, Ohio.—“Because of total ignorance of hpw to care for myself when verging into womanhood, and from taking cold when going tij school, I suf fered from a displacement, and each month I had severe pains and nausea which always meant a lay-off from work for two to four days from the time I was 16 years old. “I went to Kansas to live with my sis ter and while there a doctor told me of the Pinkham remedies but I did not use them then as my faith in patent medi cines was limited. After my sister died I came home to Ohio to live and that has been my home for the last 18 years. “Th^ Change of Life came when I was 47 years old and about this time I saw my physical condition plainly described in one of your advertisements. Then I Jj°gan using Lvdia E. Pinkham’s Veg etable Compound and I cannot tell you or any one the relief it gave me in the first three months. It put me right where I need not lay off every month and during the last 18 year? I have not paid out two dollars to a doctor, and have 'been blest with excellent health for a wo- woman of my age ahd I can thank Lydia E.Pinkham’sVegetable Compoundfor it. “ Since the. Change of Life is over I have been a maternity nurse and being wholly self-supporting I cannot over estimate the value of good health. I have now earned a comfortable little home just by sewing and nursing since I was 52 years old. I have recommended the Compound to many with good re sults, as it is excellent to take before and after childbirth.”—Miss Evelyn Amelia Stewart, Euphemia, Ohio. If you want special advice write to Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. (confi dential) Lynn, Mass. Yonr letter will be opened, read and answered by a woman and held in strict confidence.

'’fluid you do a better act than to send this no tice to some poor sufferer of Ecaeniirv— (Advt.) a few days ago that I want to pass on to you. Probably many of you have heard or read, it but it’s good enough to hear again. “In some eastern land there was a ruler' who was very unhappy/ He had, apparently, everything that heart could J wish—lands, jewels, v/as at peace with j liis neighbors, had good health—every thing but happiness. His wdse men w,fere summoned and the case laid before them. One at last suggested that if he would go on a pilgrimage over his country and wear the coat of the first man he found happy it would descend upon him. So the ruler set out. He had to travel hum bly and not as a great prince, for oth erwise the truth might not be told him. Many days passed and the seeker after happiness learned many lessons, but he had not found the happy man. At last he did find him, but he had no coat! Poverty had set seal upon him, but happiness abode in his hut.” Whenever we seek Happiness she is most likely to elude us. When we do the best we can for those about us and shut the door of our hearts to Envy, and all the Uncharitable family. Hap piness, or at least Contentment, is sure to enter in and there abide. It seems to me that people would learn this les son from observation, but so few r of them do, and. Experience, that teacher whose tax is so often tears, laughs at every new* relay that fills her halls. It is all very well not to depend too much on what others say: listen to advice and if.it does not suit you. go your own way. But be sure that the way is not already strewn with wrecks. In all phases and conditions of life we find men and women who are misfits, some because they are too stubborn to change, some because they haven’t that much initiative and others because they dare not venture. Experience may be teaching them, but what is it profiting them? Do you remember those beautiful lines: “God has his highest things in life For the few who dare to stand the test: God has His second choice For those who will not have His best; And some there are who ever make the highest choice. But when by trials pressed They shrink, they yield, they shun the cross. And so they lose the best, I want in this short life of mine Just as much as may be pressed | Of service, true to God and man. So help me. Lord, to do ijny best.” Recent mails have brought / me some letters that show that some who for years have been working for “God and man” and doing their best, are getting discouraged. That must not be. We cannot see all the results. Sometimes seeds lie dormant for years and then bring forth good fruit. A grain of wheat that was found in the folds of a mummy’s wrappings was planted and produced full grains. A most encour aging church in a certain mission field was for years the despair of the mis sionary sent there. Day in and day out he labored faithfully and only three men would go to hear him. At last the Holy Spirit touched their hearts and whole families are now Christians. It is not for us to say when results are to be made perceptible. And it is not for us to say who is the hero, or hero ine. The world sees only the outer sur face. "By their fruits ye shall know them,” T know we* are taught, but the widow’s mite went farther than the great sums cast into the treasury by the wealthy; she really denied her self to give. Another sort of letter that has come to me has decried the present and lauded the past. One writer was bemoaning the year just gone and «aid it was one of the most unhappy, that a certain num ber of years ago things had been so different and that then the writer had bee A happy. As it happened I had a letter of that special year and it was filled With the troubles of a very simi lar sort—people had misunderstood mo tives, in-laws had criticised and there was 'all sorts of trouble to complain about. Things seen afar off always look better, the future or the past. The sentiments expressed in another letter pleased me very much, and I am going to take, the liberty of quoting a little from it. It shows that leaven of the right sort is still in the land. It is heartily in sympathy with all that Miss Lang and others have written and I hope some who are now contemplating marriage will see if their ideas meas ure up to this. “My ideas may be somewhat peculiar about matrimony; there is some element I cannot name, some call it ‘soul affin ity,’ but I do not like the term. For a better word I will say ‘temperament.’ If the ideals, ideas and opinions run along the same channel and are prop erly anchored in love and true respect there is no reason why such a union should not last to the end of life a3 a shining example of marital bliss. This should be well considered before the irrevocable step is taken. Then the di vorce courts would lose most of their victims and the scandal-mongers their prey. ‘‘Such a union ripens and sweetens with age. Storms of adversity only tend to tighten the cords. A word spoken hastily is soon forgotten, which is not the case* if the parties are not really harmonious, or true lovers. They ‘twain,’ should indeed be one. Where such love and companionship abides the husband does not have to go to the club for entertainment. He has it at home, and the same is true of the wife. How quickly the tired body and wearied or troubled mind will rest around such a family fireside.” With such homes in Georgia and else where to train the boys and teach the girls the pessimists must take a more cheerful view of affairs. Don’t have the blues, keep busy, sing, whistle, turn the mind to cheerful things. Think hap piness and success and they will coine to stay. Keep a long face, think only of self, and you drive them away. Faithfully yours, LIZZIE O. THOMAS. “GIRL WITH THE GREEN PLUME” WILL LEAD GEORGIA WOMEN IN SUFFRAGETTE PARADE rish Evelyn Nora Gon, Who Is Spending Winter in Savan nah, Will Ride ■ Horseback and Carry Banner of Geor gia With “Votes for Wo men" MISS EVEIYH NOEAGON, Of Cleveland, Ohio, who is conducting: a “votes for women” campaign in Geor gia.

MeaSfchy Children Absolutely With out Fear of pain. Sent freo No woman need any long- * er dread the pair.s of childbirth. Dr. J. H. Dye devoted his life to relieving the sor- 1 rows of women. He has proven that the pain at nildbirth need no longer 5 feared by woman and we will gladly tell you how it may lone absolutely free of charge. Send your ic and address to Dr. J. H. Dye Medical litute, 810 Lewis Block, Bufalo, N.Y, and we will send you, postpaid, his v onderful book which tells howto give birth to happy, healthy children, absolutely without fear of pain, also how to become a mother. Do not delay but write TO-DAY. Dear Miss Thomas: I would like to say a few words in behalf of Mrs. Mills and her girls. I heartily agree with her and think it really mean in Cousin Jen nie to try to lead her into anything against her mother’s wishes. I don't believe in face paints. Certainly nature will bestow all the paint that is neces sary for any refined girl. A true mother is going to teach her daughter, or son, the right way. and it hurts a mother’s influence for outsiders to come in and say she is wrong or too strict. Such has been the course of many sons and daugh ters’ downfall, and the mother is the one who suffers the pain and woe of a child's downfall; outsiders don’t care. If Mrs. Mills’ daughters should be made vain by Cousin Jennie, and come to shame and disgrace, she would laugh in her sleeve, and say, “Oh, I knew Mrs. Mills was too strict.” When really Cousin Jennie was the cause of it. I have had things hurled at me when I condemned promiscuous parties, and card playing. “Yes,” tney would say, “I knew a family who was brought up like you say you would like for yours to be, and when the children were grown-up they married into the lowest class of people, and turned out bad gen erally.*’ Of course I know such happens —sometimes:—but the outsider’s impres sions and scoffing made them so, not that their parents were to strict. Bad company will ruin any child. I have known boys who were led into drinking by bad associates. They refused several times, but kept on going with their bad associates and finally gave way to the tempting one. I know boys who were allowed to play cards at other homes against their pa rents' wishes, who now are visiting gam bling dens. Beware with whom your sons or daughters associate, for they may be led off, regardless of your train ing. I have almost lost confidence in humanity, there are so many friends to your face and behind your back they are raving wolves. Far too much visiting is done these days, by children and grown ups, too. Yes, Brown’s folks, visiting Jones’ folks and .telling what Smith’s folks said about Jones’ folks, and then Jones’ visiting Smith’s oiks and telling what Brown’s folks said about Jones’ folks. Thus they keep their paths trod slick, and a general uproar. Going the rounds every day, sometimes twice a day. It won’t do; on$ would better stay at home seven days in the week and keep 1 one’s children there than traipse around 1 and gossip. Work six days and keep the ! seventh holy. No wonder there are so many people crying out hard times, when they have spent so much time in the road and at what they call their neighbors’ house. Who is your neighbor when meat and flour gives out, or time comes to pay your debt? If I see right, it is now time to bow down to work for a living, for I have never heard such a cry, “Oh, it’s hard times;” besides when one does that they are not troubling their neighbor about what Brown’s folks said about them. I think a good New Year’s resolution would be less visiting, less talk, and more work. I do not condemn visiting of the right kind. No one likes company bet ter than I; but I stand just like Mrs. Mills. I don’t want any one to try to get my children- to do things that I condemn and some will do if. I have heard them. Now, wishing you all a happy year, filled with prosperity, I sign myself A MASON’S WIFE. (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) SAVANNAH, Ga., Jan. 29.—The quest of the ballot by demonstration, a method by no means to be confused with mili tancy, has found a receptive chord in the hearts of Georgia suffragists, and on March 1 this staid old state, for the first time in her'history, will be treated to visible evidence of the woman's rights advocates outside of the convention hall and the debating society. Fired by the success of the New York suffragists, who “hiked” to Albany to present a petition to Governor Sulzer, women fighting for the ballot all over the United States are preparing to hold a big demonstration in Washington on the eve of the presidential inauguration. And Georgia is to be represented by a squad of fifty of its most prominent woman’s rights advocates, augmented by inarching contingents from Atlanta, Savannah, Athens and Gainesville. GEORGIA DELEGATION.- The Georgia delegation will leave At lanta on March 1 In order to arrive in Washington in ample time for a rest before the strenuous day on March 3, when the big suffrage parade is sched uled to take place. All the Georgia women who will take part in the Wash ington demonstration will defray their own expenses in the interest of the fight. All of them will carry Georgia flags and banners emblematic of their cause. It will be the first time that Georgia women have ever asserted themselves in public. Among the women who will take part in the Washington parade will be Miss Evelyn Nora Gon, of Cleveland, Ohio, who is spending the winter in Savan nah, and who is personally conducting the fight in this state. Miss NoraGon, who is known in Savannah as tlie “Girl witii the Green Plumes,” because of a characteristic feather that droops from her hat, will ride on horseback in the vanguard of the suffragists, and* will carry a banner concerning votes for women in Georgia. In this way she intends to attract the attention of the entire country to the fact that Georgia women are awakened and determined to secure their rights. PLANS STATE CAMPAIGN. Miss NoraGon has done a great deal of work in Georgia this winter for her cause. Besides her work in Savannah, which is probably the most ultra-con servative city in the state, she has in vaded a number of neighboring cities with the pew doctrine. Upon her return from Washington she wiil inaugurate a speaking campaign over the state. For this purpose it is her intention to bring into Georgia such well known suffrage orators as Miss Jane Addams, of Chicago; Miss Anna Shaw and Mrs. O. I-I. P. Belmont. It is probable that a petition asking the right of suffrage for women will be presented to the legislature when that body meets in Atlanta in the sum mer. A number of members of the legislature have already 1 promised Miss NoraGon that they will give the move ment their support. Prominent men from all over the state are behind the movement.

MANUFACTURER Plans Formulated to Manufac ture Agricultural Im plements at Home (By Associated Press.) ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 29.-An ex tensive series of experiments with agri cultural implements was carried out by the Russian department of agriculture during the season of 1912 with the aim of putting an end to the dependence of Russia on American manufacturers. Over 100 reapers, mowers rakes and other im plements manufactured in Canada and various European countries were put to work under the supervision of depart ment officials. Several of these implements, according to an official report successfully stood the tests under varied and difficult con ditions—notably those coming from Canada—and it is stated that they can be manufactured equally well in Russia. The department of agriculture is send ing out copies of the report to co-opera tive societies and local government boards, as the Russian farmers are largely supplied through these sources. The government hopes to induce agricul turists to substitute other implements for the American machines generally in use. Seventy-two per cent of the biusiness in this kind of machinery is now in the hands of American manufacturers. (By Associated Press.) LONDON, Jan. 28.—Mrs. Despard, a leader of the militant suffragettes, and two of her companions were sentenced to fourteen days’ imprisonment today on the charge of resisting the police in the execution of their duty when they dis persed a meeting in Trafaglar square last evening. Mrs. Despard, who is a sister of the famous cavalry general, Sir John French, was offered the-option of pay ing a fine of $10, but she refused to ac cept this and was sent to jail. A fourth suffragette who was among those arrested last night was sent to prison for seven days. Mrs. Despard, addressing the magis trate after being sentenced, said that she would probably repeat her offense when she was released. Some sympathizers in court who made a demonstration when sentence was pro nounced were ejected. 20-Year-Old Girl Is Held For Death Of Man Aged 50 (By Associated Press.) CHARLESTON, S.

Jackson, aged about fifty, who was shot through the left temple with a .38-caliber bullet from a pistol last night. It was thought at first to be a suicide, but admissions by the woman during a gruelling examination by detectives led the police today to alter their opinion. Jackson and the woman, who claims to be his lawful widow, came here from Washington, D. C., recently. Another man who is thought to be concerned in the tragedy is sought.

The will directs that the money be used for “giving to every tribe of man kind that has them not, and which speaks a language distinct from all oth ers, accurate and faithful copies of at least the gospel of St. John and the gospel of St. Luke, together with the book of the Acts of the Apostles, print ed in the language of that tribe.” The will further prescribes that at least ten or. twelve persons of each tribe be taught to read.

ELIZABETH WARING. tlie Body In Repair Nature intended that the body should do its own repairing—and it would do so were it not for the fact that most of us live other than a natural life. Uature didn’t intend that we should wear corsets, tight collars or shoes, nor live in badly ventilated and draughty houses, nor eat and drink some of the things that we do, nor ride in street cars when we should walk. The consequence is that the body when it gets out of order must look for out- side help to make the necessary repairs. ,F ov stomachs and the indigestion or dyspepsia resulting, and the multitude of diseases therefrom, no medicine can he more adaptable as a curative agent than DR.
