THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1913. 5 CfONCXJCTtO * MISS LIZZIE O. THOMAS By Marlon McH. Hull. G-oldon Text: “Love envleth not.’’—Cor. 13: 4. There never was a more abused word than that word “friend.” It is used and misused until many people really forget when its being misused. “Judge before friendship and then confide till death.” is what Young tells us to do and dear Jeremy Taylor tells us that “Some friendships are made by nature, some by contact, some by interest, and some by souls.” And when one stops to con sider the strange and utterly different natures that are loyal to each other one can see that the old fellow was right. On the streets in the cars, at home, everywhere we hear the expres sion, “A friend of mine.” Nine times out of ten. eight anyhow, there is no ■ friendship between them, they are the veriest acquaintances. It seems just . as easy to say. he, or she, is an ac quaintance of mine. It is risking much to claim friendship after only a few casual meetings. usuaHy it takes years, or many close and trying hours, to cement two lives in the bonds of real friendship. There is a microbe called self-interest that often spoils the work of years, sometimes it is inserted by an outsider or borne, on the winds of , jealousy from- another heart and the beautiful creature that delighted at least two ’souls becomes a tissue of suspicion and distrust. There are ac quaintances that wear the cloak so easily that one is almost tempted to call them friends; and, alas that such should be, there are wolves in sheeps’ clothing and so black is such a heart one shudders at the mischief such have done or may yet.do. “Judge before friendship,” and remember that one must at least summer and winter with an acquaintance before one can even judge. Haven’t you' seen people whose sym pathies wSre all yours as long as you were in trouble, but seemed to be en vious or at least not so cordial when the beams of prosperity shone on you? Then there are others to be called fair weather friends and that set fails one entirely when sorrow comes. So I sup pose things get evened up. Shakes peare says: “He that is thy friend indeed. He will help thee in thy need; If thou- sorrow he will weep: If thou wake he cannot sleep: Thus of every grief in heart He with thee doth bear a part.” There are people who really want to be one’s friend,* but they do not stick to any one person long enough to really know what the word means. To have a friend one must be a friend, one is often reminded for there are two bears that are ever present— . bear and forbear. The giving and taking may not be equally divided, its far easier to give than take, literally, as well as figuratively, and there are > times when the tension is such that the proverbial feather’s weight would prove- disastrous. Then is when silence is . golden and friendship in such a state \ that one need not let the other know : that any hazard has beefo run. Most of us know the sort of man or woman who becomes intensely in terested in ythe latest arrival in the community. Nothing ip too good for the stranger and no service too ardu ous, but soon the ardor cools and it takes another arrival to stir up that enthusiasm. * Such people are useful. They are to be appreciated, and, as I heard a man say not many weeks ago, they make some rough places mighty , srrtoath. Do not discount their good .will nor forget their kindnesses when i they realize the fact that there are i other strangers net far off and trans fer their attentions. The spasmodic sort of friendship is .another sort that one finds as one “sails |the main,” trudges along life’s highway, or quietly bides in the valley that has always been called home. The spas modic sort is of several kinds, one must indeed be careful of the sensitive soul whose feelings are spread in all direc tions and one knows only when the light of that countenance has been with drawn that a season of healing silence must ensue before any more blossoms will be seen. I heard a woman say of another one, “I will not see her again until she needs me, then she will come in as if nothing had ever happened.” Damon and Pythias, David and Jona than are synonyms of that counstancy and faith that usually comes to onlv a few because the majority do not put them to the test—some are afraid to test friendship, and why should we? All of us know people who flatter themselves into thinking they have a host of friends when in truth they only have a long list of acquaintances. There is no necessity for us to undeceive them. There may never be any severe test put to them; probably there will not, and the ac quaintances will pass for an army of friends. When I was considerably younger than I now am I read “Mr. Isaacs,” by Marion Crawford, and was a bit indig nant over the statement that one friend was all that really fell to the lot of thinking, conscientious mortals, that one was all one could be loyal to. So many times since then J have readjusted my mental focus and'looked at the world from another viewpoint, sometimes I’ve been tempted to say he was right. For years I’ve planned to reread that book just to see how that part of it would strike me. But “of the making of books there is no end,” and one is fortunate if she gets a chance to read the classics in one’s youth and then finds time as trie years pass to read a little of the best as it is written. And let th$ sort that sneer-at friendship or the cardinal vir tues severely alone. Life is too short for envy, malice or any uncharitable ness and they are sure to poison the heart if the mind is fed on putrid or even tainted material. It’s all very well for the very young to question whether there is such a lever as friendship. They will learn later what a powerful one it is, and as the shadows of life’s evening fall on them they will see that there can not be anything more cheering or sus taining this side of heaven. “Friendship's but a name, A charm that lulls to sleep,” the lyric tells us, and our dear Lady Disdain tries to believe it, ,too, but don't you believe it. The fact that you have called a score of acquaintances friend need not deter you from the comforting thought of the friends true and tried that the years have given you. You haven’t any? How do you know? Prove a friend to those needing you and, after many years it may be that heavenly gift will manifest itself unto you. Do not be overly confident, nor cynical. None of us like to be picked up and weighed in the balance just to be proved. Wait until the hour of need comes and see how many pleasant sur prises you will have. It’s a morbid mind that dissects or vivisects a friend. “Judge before friendship, then confide till death.” Faithfully yours, LIZZIE O. THOMAS. CONCERNING SOME ABSENTEES Dear Miss Thojnas: I am as busy as a bee these days, my work among the flowers fixes them so that the bees can gather their sweet store. When rest time tomes I embroider or help in the house and only those who have, in some period of their past, been sick, can really appreciate being able to do things. I think some of the readers of this page will almost envy me when I tell them that Eloise visited me several days. She is like a sunbeam in the house and always sees when to help others. Then Euclea visited me recent ly. So you see what a favored mortal I hav© been. Eucla is a girl with hosts of friends From 40 to 50 Woman’s Critical Period. Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, severe headaches, melancholia, dread of impending evil, palpitation of the heart, irregularity, constipation and dizziness are promptly treated by intelligent women who are approaching the period of life. This is the most critical period of woman’s life and she who neglects the care of her health at this time invites in curable disease and pain. Why not be guided by the ex perience of others and take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound ? It is an indisputable fact that this grand old remedy has helped thousands of women to pass through this trying period with comfort and safety. Thousands of genuine and honest testimonials support this fact. From Mrs. HENRY HEAVILIN, Cadiz, Ohio. Fort Worth, Texas. — “I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta ble Compound and derived great benefit from its use. It carried me safely through the Change of Life when I was in bad health. I had that all gone feeling most of the time, and headache constantly, I was very nervous and the hot flashes were very bad. I had tried other remedies and doctors, but did not improve until I began taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. It has now been sometime since I took the Compound and I have had no return of my old complaints. I always praise your remedies to weak women.” — Mrs. Henry Heavilin, R. F. I). No. 5, Cadiz, Ohio. From Mrs. EDWARD B. HILBERT, Fleetwood, Pa. Fleetwood, Pa.—“ During the Change of Life I was hardly able to be around at all. I always had a headache and I was so dizzy and nervous that I had no rest at night. The flashes of heat were so bad sometimes that I did not know what to do. “ One day a friend advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege table Compound and it made me a strong, well woman. I am very thankful that I followed my friend’s advice, and I shall recommend it as long as I live. Before I took the Compound I- was always sickly and now I have not had medicine from a doctor for years. You may publish my letter.”—Mrs.. Edward B. Hilbert, Fleetwood, Pa. From Mrs. F. P. MULLENDORE, Munford, Ala. Munford, Ala.—“ I was so weak and nervous while passing through the Change of Life that I could hardly live. My husband had to nail rubber on all the gates for I could not stand to have a gate slam. “ I also had backache and a fullness in my stomach. I noticed that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound was ad vertised for such cases and I sent and got a bottle. It did me so much good that I kept on taking it and found it to be all you claim. I recommend it to all women afflicted as I was.”—Mrs. F. P. Mullen- dore, Munford, Ala. to LYDIA E.PINKHAM MEDICINE CO. 1PSP* (CONFIDENTIAL) LYNN, MASS.,foradvice. Your letter will be opened, read and answered I*™ stYidL hp.irl in strict confidence* The passing years brought but one thing of note into the life of Israel. He was a changed man. We find no more of the crafty dealing that characterized him before his experience at Jabbok. But shortly afterward the greatest sorrow of his life until then came upon him. Rachel, whom he had loved from the first sight of her, and for whom he *'nad served at hard labor for fourteen years, died. It was at the birth of her son, Benjamin. I think the loss of Rachel had some thing to do with making Israel love Joseph more than his other sons. He may have resembled his mother in ap pearance. and at any rate, was a most estimable youth of seventeen at the time of the events of our iesson to day. To show partiality is not a good thing under any circumstances, but it is espe cially undesirable in a family. It al ways engenders bitterness in the less favored, and makes the lot of the favor ite harder to bear. But possibly Rachel’s death made Israel unconscious ly to himself, perhaps, transfer the love he had always had to her to her first born. And he made the mistake of manifesting it by giving Joseph better clothes than the other boys. The gift to him of a coat richly embroidered with many colored silk and gold threads crys tallized their bitterness toward him. TALKED TOO MUCH. Then Joseph, like many another young man of his age, talked too much. Every one knows the sense of impor tance that is experienced by a young person of the. teen age. You remember when you were that age how you really pitied the older folks because they were so far inferior to you in wisdom and judgment. You may have forgotten, but you did it nevertheless, how posi tively you expressed your opinions, and wondered why other people did not re alize that the last word had been spoken by you on the subject. You were climb ing fool’s hill, and that was but one stage of the journey. Now' Joseph was on the same road. He was not a tattler, nor was he any thing more than a boy who had been loved and petted by his father, and who, therefore, at this period of his psycho logical development had ,an undue sense of his own importance, and talked too much. He told his father of the evil doings of his half brothers, the sons of the concubines—and I have no doubt but that the reports were true and that for their own good Israel should have known it; but for Joseph to have been the informant was not conducive to his popularity with them. Then he told them most naively of his dreams in which his self consciousness was as serting itself most strongly. It is not certain that these were prophetic, and certainly the last was not. for his moth er had died long before he came into power in Egypt when it might have been realized But these dreams which showed his developing self consciousness were no more conducive to his popularity with his brethren than the report he had given to his afther. They treasured up bitterness and hatred in their hearts to him; they were murderous already in heart and only lacked opportunity to be such in fact. It is interesting to note the entirely different attitude which Israel assumed in the matter. He observed these things, made careful note of them in his mind; and I think he rather enjoyed the sight of the developing qualities of leadership in the young man, for he was old nough to know that after Joseph had reached the top of fool’s hill, there were qualities in him that would be most \ aluable. A CRUEL PLOT. An occasion arose that gave the broth ers an opportunity to wreak their ven geance. They had gone some twenty miles north of Bethel seeking pastur age fo r the large flocks of their father. They had been gone so long that Israel became uneasy about them, especially as he did not have the utmost confi dence in their integrity of character, so he sent Joseph, as being the only one at home (Benjamin was too small to go), to learn their whereabouts and to inform him of their welfare. When Joseph reached Shecham they were nowhere to be found, but learn ing that they had been seen going northerly he proceeded that way, and finally found them some twenty more miles further north at Dothan. As he hove vn sight they recognized him by his richly embroidered robe, and determined to put him to death that they might be bothered with him no longer. They determined to cast him in to a pit to starve to death and then concocted a story about his having been slain by some wild beast. Be it said to their credit that this plot was not shared by all the breth ren. I think it was only the sons of the concubines. Dan and Naphthali. Gad and Assher Certainly Reuben didn’t enter into it, and was very much grieved when he found what the others had done. In fact it was because of his intervention that Joseph’s life was spared at that time, and he seemed greatly grieved when he returned to find that the others had sold Joseph into Egypt. I have never been able to reconcile this attitude on his part with his silence when his brothers told his father that outrageous falsehood. It does seem that he would have informed his father of the truth of the affair ,and not allowed him to mourn as he did, thinking Joseph dead. The only explanation I can make is that Reuben was in ignorance of what had happened himself. But the great truth that stands out over all in this story is the overruling providence of God. God had told Abra ham nearly 200 years before this that his seed would sojourn in Egypt for a time because of Abraham’s failure to be lieve Him implicitly, and now in this way God is making the wrath of men to prove him. Should I be called upon to select one great truth to impress more than any other in this story I would express it in four words, “The fact of God.” You cah’t get away from Him. He is ever present, and He rules over all, and all is right that seems most wrong if it be His sweet will. and a great help in the Sunday school she attends.

Now, who else can tell about as many writers for our page? I>et's hear from them, for all of us like to keep in touch with our members. Addie Ivan, whose letters have been such a pleasure, and who commenced writing for our page among the first, has re cently lost her brother. While we know that our loved ones who go before us are free from all sorrow aud care, our hearts ache in lone liness and many a time we long for the touch of the vanished hand and to hear the loved tones now stilled. Our own family re union, if we have one this year, ^ill have a vacant chair. Hearts will tie saddened and laughter not so hearty as it was a year ago, but we know his joy is great and his bur dens are forever laid aside. Life is so un certain, and death so sure that it is well for all of us to be ready when the summons comes. And how great the joy one must feel to hear the words. “Well done, thou good and faithful servant.” There are lonely hearts t.> cheer, there are discouraged hearts to fill with hope, there are bowed heads all about us, are we doing our part in helping the world? Sincerely, MYRTIE HARRIS. Elberton, Ga. A FEW LINES OF PRAISE Dora Miss Thomas: Am I the only Journal agent that writes fbr this page? I generally read the paper from the first to the last page, but you may be sure that the deur Household does not escape my eager eyes. I wonder how many of the readers have a calendar atlas? I have one, and think every home should be supplied, for they are such a help. One can take so much pride in taking subscriptions for The Journal. It is a good, up-to-date paper and the premiums are all nice ones. I would like to get a card or letter from at least one member of every Vickery family. When you write give your ocupation, etc., and tell me something about your family. Let’s see how many of us are related. I am won dering bow many are teachers. Hoping to hear from some of you soon, I am, yours truly, LUTHER B. VICKERY. < ANTI-SUFFRAGISTS TO MAKE BIG CAMPAIGN WASHINGTON, April 24.—After a strenuous campaign against the suf fragists the leaders of the national as sociation opposed to woman’s suffrage will leave today to carry the crusade into the country. Mrs. A. J. George, organizing secretary of the Massachu setts branch of the organization, al ready has left for Boston. Miss Lucy J. Price, the organization’s field worker, leaves on a speaking tour today and Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge, na tional president of the association, will return to headquarters in New York tomorrow. < More than 100 anti-suffragettes met today for a final conference on the con tinuation of work before congress. The meeting was executive, admission being by card only, and the situation was thoroughly canvassed. The anti-suf fragists expressed their complete sat isfaction with the impression they felt they had made on the senate woman suffrage committee at the hearing Sat urday. POPE CONTINUALLY GROWING STRONGER HAWTHORNE MUST STAY IN PRISON TILL JULY Department of Justice- Decides •He Must Serve One-Third of Sentence WASHINGTON, April 24.—Julian Hawthorne and Dr. William J. Morton, con\*icted of misuse of the mails, and now in the Atlanta penitentiary await ing parole, will not be eligible for re lease until they actually have served one-third of their sentences in prison, which will be the latter part of July. This decision was reached today by the department of justice. In sentencing Hawthorne and Morton to one year and a day last March the trial judge made the sentence date from the beginning of their trials, No vember 25? They entered the peniten tiary on March 24 under the belief that they w’ould be eligible for parole on March 25, as one-third of the sentence had then expired. The department of justice holds that a prisoner must actually serve one-third of his sen tence. When advised by The Journal of the ruling of the department of justice in Washington relative to the application for parole by the famous prisoners, Julian Hawthorne and Dr. W. K. Mor ton, Warden Moyer, of the United States penitentiary, said that he had heard nothing of it. He seemed to think that the ruling was a very radi cal one. He said that he had never known the parole law to be interpreted that way before, and expressed the opinion that it was meant to be ap plicable particularly in the case of these two prisoners.

These rules are worthy of observance, at all times, but are espe cially applicable to the summer season. Following is the advice on the care of infants, as furnished by the state board of health: Feed your baby, if you can, from your own milk. If the child is well and healthy, and the mother can not feed it, the best obtainable food is modified cow’s milk —modified and prepared under the physician’s directions to suit the age and condition of the child. Don’t overfeed the child. The amount of food should always be reduced in hot weather. Don’t give your child under twelve or thirteen months of age any solid food. The child should be weaned at the end of the first year. Cleanliness and purity in the food can not be too greatly emphasized. Keep the bottles clean. Boil them after each feeding. When filled with fresh, modified milk, stop them with cotton and keep in a cool place until needed. Keep the nipples clean. Wash after using and place them in a solution of boracic acid until needed. Don’t “dose” the baby. If the baby is sick, if it has a bowel complaint or fever, stop its food at once and g^t a doctor as quickly as possible. Many babies are killed every year by too much home “dosing.” Don’t overheat the child with flan nels and heavy clothing. The clothing should be light particularly in hot weather. k Give the baby its daily bath, at all titties. Don’t keep the child in a hot, stuffy room. It is well to allow young children the utmost freedom compatible with their safety. Let them do those things that nature and instinct demand. Let them sleep as much and as long as they will. In a word, keep the child clean, and keep its food pure and clean. eoyerIentis after LITHIA WATER BOTTLERS BEFORE SENATE BOARD Urge Senate Committee on Woman's Suffrage to Rec ommend Bill to Senate Chemists Say It Would Take Twenty-four Barrels of Wa ter To Make Lithium D.ose (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, April 24.—Advocates of “votes for women” were ready for their inning when ,the senate woman's suffrage committee met today. The anti-suffragists were given two hours Saturday to explain their opposition to the proposal that an amendment call ing for universal suffrage be recom mended by congress. Leaders of the “cause” had attended the anti-suffragist hearing and declared they were ready to answer the argu ments made at that hearing, both gen erally and specifically. The suffragists began their hearing by calling upon several members . of con gress for their views. Senator Warren indorsed woman suffrage in a letter; Senators Chamberlain and Lane and Representative French made brief speeches, and Senator Ashurst, a mem ber of the committee, declared himself in favor of the movement. Today s hearing was given up to the federal association for woman suffrage. Another German Aircraft Lands . on French Soil (By Associated Press,) NANCY, France April 24—Another in ternational military aviation incident oc curred on the France-German frontier this morning, when a German army aeroplane alighted on French territory at Nord Arraeourt. Two German officers in uniform were on board. These were Captain Devail, chief inspector of avia tion, and Lieutenant Von Mirbach. The local military police and French customs officers hastened to the spot and Captain Devail explained to them that his gasoline had become exhausted. He had thought at the time of landing he was on the German side of the fron tier. Instructions from the French foreign office had in tjie interval been seht to Jules Cambon, French ambassador at Berlin, who was told to call the atten- yon of the German government to the repeated landings of German military air-craft in-France and to the serious in conveniences brought about by such oc currences. M. Cambon was directed to ask Ger many to take measures to avoid the re currences of such incidents and, discuss with Franoe the drafting of rules for set tling further happenings of this kind.

WASHINGTON, April 24.—Whether lithia water bottling concerns may bot tle and label their products “lithia water” when the lithium is present only in small quantities is to be decided in the district supreme court today in a case which the government has brought against a water bottling com pany of Buffalo Lithia Springs, Va. It is the first test case under the pure food and drugs act and the decision will have an im portant bearing on the labelling of all bottled mineral waters in the future. Government experts contend that the waters of the Atlantic ocean contain practically thirty times more of the mineral than the average bottled lithia water and that Potomac and Mississippi river water yields much more lithium than the bottled samples they have ex amined. Officials of the bureau of chemistry assert that it would take twenty-four barrets of the average brand of so- called lithia water to produce a me dicinal dose of/lithium. Dr. Carl L. Alsberg, chief of the bu reau of chemistry will appear in court as a government Witness for the first time since he accepted that office.

MOTHER IDENTIFIES LITTLE ROBERT DUNBAR COLUMBIA. Miss., April 22.—The boy taken from an Itinerant peddler here several days ago suspected of be ing the Dunbar boy, missing from his home in Opelousas, La.. since last August, was identified by Mrs. 0. P Dunbar, the child’s mother, today. Fearing that announcement of the identification of the child by its mother might lead to an attempt to lynch W. C. Walters, the/itinerant peddler, in whose lianas the child was found, a strong guard was placed around the jail where Walters is being held. Mrs. Dunbar on arriving here from New Orleans last night was taken to the home of a deputy sheriff, where the child lias been kept and remained there until it awoke this morning. A pa thetic scene was enacted when the little long missing child opened its eyes and recognized its mother. “Mother," he cried as he reached up and stretched out his arms to her. The mother convulsively embraced the boy and then fainted. She was soon re vived, however. The father of the stol en boy yesterday had partially identified him as his son by the marke on the body. Owing to his unkempt condi tion and change caused by exposure, the father awaited the arrival of Mrs. Dun bar before making a complete Identi fication. The parents, accompanied by their long-hunted son, will probably leave here Monday for Opelasis, La. A cease less search has been kept up for the missing boy and thousands of dollars have been expended running down clews in widely separated parts of the coun try.
