Turning: the leaf of my Year Book of
English Authors, I find these lines for
April 28, and give them to you as ap
propriate for this day of 1913:
“The wind hath a language, I would I
could learn.
Sometimes ’tis soothing, and some
times ’tis stern;
Sometices it comes like a low, sweet
song,
And all things grow calm as the sound
floats along.
And the forest is lulled by the dreamy
strain.
And slumber sinks down on the wan
dering main,
And its crystal arms are folded in rest,
An«f the tall ship sleeps on its heaving
breast.
And the billows leap up when the sum-
* mons they hear,
And the ship flies away, as if winged
with fear.
And’ when the moon rises the ship is
no more.
Its joys and its sorrows are vanished
and o’er.
And the fierce storm that slew it has
faded away,
Like the dark dream that flies from
. the light of day.”
LETETIA E. LANDON.
There is a ! language of the wind and it
has been using it most vigorously this
month. There have been days of cut
ting and bending and breaking, there
have been days when the thermometer
was registering the balmy breezes and
their soft words were coaxing the more
backward or timid flowers to come out
and se what a beautiful world it is, the
flowers listened to the siren call and
Boreas laughed loud and long and snap
ped their pretty heads off or withered
the figs and peaches. Yes, this April
has had the winds of March and of
November as well as the fleecy clouds
and warmth of May.
Last week Atlanta was filled with
devotees of grand opera and those sing
ers whose vocal organs are as precious
as their lives rejoiced in the sunshine
and ozone. This week as they fill their
contracts in more northern places they
doubtless think of the “sunny south
land”—and it’s a good thing they can
not be here now or some illusions might
be shattered.
There is a wonderful congress on
hand, however, the Sociological, and the
delegates are probably thinking “Well,
this may be the sunny south, but old
Sol is not smiling right now.”
This congress is a wonder, and I
would rejoice to be able to take in every
meeting, but even this wonderful cen
tury has not devised a way for one to
be in more than one place at a time and
one’s brain becomes so weary that the
speakers’ words fail to stay w r ith one.
Yesterday I heard some notables from
New York and Canada and thoroughly
enjoyed all. Mr. Hobson was caught in
a storm on the Chesapeake bay and
failed to arrive in Atlanta. Mr. Love-
joy, of New York, took his place. He
said some really clever things and in
such a way that he held his audience,
although, as he said,* it’s hard to inter
est disappointed people. I won!t try to
give you even a synopsis of any of
them, for they were not the sort to be
shortened. One of the places today was
filled by a negro man and as one of

•
From Nervousness Caused by
Female Ills—Restored to
Health by Lydia £.

ble Compound.
Auburn, N. Y. — “I suffered from
nervousness for ten jfears, and had such
organic pains that
sometimes I would
lie in bed four days
at a time, could not
eat or sleep and did
not want anyone to
talk to me or bother
me at all. Some
times I would suffer
for seven hours at a
time. Different doc
tors did the best
they could for me
until four months ago I began giving
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound a trial and now I am in good
health.” — Mrs. William H. Gill, 15
Pleasant Street, Auburn, New York.
* Doctor’s Daughter Took It.”
St. Cloud, Minn.—“ I was so run down
byjoverwork and worry that I could not
6tand it to have my children talk aloud
or walk heavy on the floor. One of my
friends said, ‘Try Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, for I know a doc
tor’s daughter here in town who takes
jt and she would not take it if it were
not good. ’
“ I sent for the Compound at once and
kept on taking it until I was all right.”
—Mrs Bertha M. Quickstadt, 727 5th
Avenue, S., St. Cloud, Minn.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound may be relied upon as the most
efficient remedy for female ills. Why
don’t you try it?
his hearers expressed it, “He could make
you sit up and take notice.” His sub
ject was the proper way for the white
man and black one to treat each other.
There was not a speech made in the
city that was better, I am told. I re
gret that I did not hear it.
That race, after only fifty years of op
portunity, are making a record; they do
not need compulsory education laws.
Schools are all they ask for and fifty
years from now you, whose children arp
out of school on any pretext, will see
the injustice you have done your chil
dren. See* to it that your crops this year
are not estimated with their help In
your mind. Don’t stop the children from
school.
“Under the sod and the dew
Awaiting the judgment day”
are the heroes of the four years of
fractricidal strife. No history can ever
fully portray the deeds of self-denial,
or of splendid self-sacrifice, those
bloody yearse beheld. Saturday the Con
federate dead were honored and flow
ers place on on the green sod covering
their last resting place. Atlanta was
one of the stricken cities whose soil
was gory and whose homes were de
stroyed. Every week I pass over the
ground that was plowed with balls and
roughened with the struggles of the
battle of Atlanta. Hundreds who were
then opposed even unto death are now,
or their descendants,' side by side fol
lowing paths of peace. The parade- this
year was splendid and it made a tre
mendous impression on visitors within
her gates. Saturday, though -it was,
stores were closed and every one given
a chance to pay their tribute to the d'ead.
The commercial spirit of Atlanta is
progressive and her ambition boundless,
but her tribute to the heroes of a Lost
Cause splendid. Sunday afternoon as
I looked over the vast audience- that
the Sociological speakers drew J was
glad that the contrast between that
number and those who the evening be
fore heard the music would not be mor
tifying. I have seen that vast building
when there wasn’t standing room, and
a preacher drew them. I think that
this conservative, yet deeply religious
spirit is one of the chief reasons for
Atlanta’s successes. God looks into the
heart of her multitude and sees rever
ence and gratitude and blesses the city.
“Yes, I know there Is a great deal
of sin and greed and cruelty, but a bit
ter struggle is going on all the time be
tween the powers of Darkness and the
children of Ligh't.
I have called many places home, have
always tried to thoroughly enter into
the spirit and good work of the place
in which I lived and' I rejoice to be
able to say that it is my candid opinion
that each year sees the world growing
better. Higher ideals are before the
people and the good of humanity, as a
mass, is more sincerely considered. As
one of the speakers said yesterday:
“The law of Sinai interpreted by Cal
vary for the brotherhood of man” is the
basis on which to work, and it is won
derful how much is being done. Of
course, there are daily happenings that
startle Us, and the papers are some
times too free with awful details, but
for every crime that startles the world,
or the small part of it ip which we
live, there* are a dozen blessings being
shared. A great many speak of the
past as if perfection dwelt therein. We
see flaws in the people close to us,
and forget that things afar off always
look better. There is one sort of blind
ness God tolerates and that is the sort
that leads us to see only the ^good in
people*
1‘When thou hast thanked thy God
For every blessing sent.
What time will then remain
For murmurs or lament?”
My Lady Disdain says that there are
blessings sent, but that we too often
snatch them so hurriedly that we spoil
them and have not even a pleasant
memory. She says that half the people
fail to recognize blessings and are sat
isfied with the common-place. That she
is often bored by the things another
raves about. I say she contradicts her
self; she says the people hug delusions
instead of cherishing blessings.” What,
say you, dear friends?
With all good wishes for you and
yours. I am.
Faithfully yours,

WHILE THE RAIN FALLS.
Donr Household: As this is Saturday, and a
rainv afternoon at that. I will lay aside my
crocheting and chnt a while, as writing never
did draw, m.v eyelids as close together as
crocheting and reading, and especially when I
used to write to ray sweetheart; but now I
am an old married woman—the term generally
u*e<l for married women, even if they are yet
very young. . .
Well, 1 am not as young as I used to oe,
and not as old as some: still I have a few
gray strands. I am 5 feet 5 inches tall and
do not weigh one hundred. While I do not
know a well day. my health is much better
than it*was when I first wrote to this corner.
My husband and I both have malaria, and if
any one can tell us what will cure us we will
be so proud. We take quinine and have taken
other medicines, only to get temporary relief.
We want something that will effect a cure,

plants nnd grass look pretty. The farmers are
I rejoicing. I know, nnd will go whistling to
| their fields Monday morning.
I The recent cold has hurt some things in this
section. Corn and potatoes were up and they
were cut down. Perhaps some garden truck
was hurt, too. People in town never know
how much the country people are hurt: never
theless, we know enough to sympathize and
have more feeling for them than many a farm-
mer imacines we have.
Most of us once lived on the farm. If we
didn’t, our fathers did: and if they didn’t, our
grandfathers did.. And how we liked to go to
the country to eat. fruit and watermelons, or
go nutting! Yes. and we all love the country,
with its pure air, luscious fruits,, cool water
and excellent milk. And we love the farmer,
his wife and children.

When Joseph reached Egypt in the
company of the Midianites who had
bought him, he was taken to the capi
tal, and there by them sold to the com
mander-in-chief of the Egyptian army,
Potiphar by name. He placed him in
his house as a servant. Joseph did not
grumble about having to work—it would
have done him no good. He accepted a
bad situation and did his best to make
the most of it. He was beginning to
learn one of the lessons God had to teacn
him. He had talked too much before,
and he was going to keep his mouth
shut now. He had been proud, because
petted; this discipline would teach him
the great truth that by humility we rise,
and by pride we fall. The humble shall
be exalted. Without that discipline the
proud youth would have grown into an
unbearable man.
Joseph made himself so invaluable in
the house that the general began to rec
ognize what a treasure he had secured,
and after a time placed him in charge
of all that he had, made him his private
secretary and confidential clerk. In this
Position he continued for several years.
At about twenty-five years of age he
had grown to be exceedingly handsome,
and thrown intimately in the family life
with his general’s wife, she became in
fatuated with this fair-skin young He
brew although he had not given her any
cause for it whatsoever.
You remember the story of the fearful
temptation to which he was subjected;
the way he met it, and of his unjust im
prisonment.
STILL FAITHFUL.
He must have burned with indignation
over that dungeon experience. An Egyp
tian dungeon was no pleasant place un
der any circumstances, but to be placed
there unjustly and to be unable to de
fend himself (for in loyalty Joseph could
not tell his master the whole truth—he
could but deny the charge against him,
which he did), was unbearable in^the ex
treme. But never a murmur did he
make.
He proved such a model prisoner (for
he had determined again to make the
most of a bad situation) that the jailer
soon allowed him certain ibertlies and
finally placed him in charge x>f all that
was done there.
Finally there came into the prison two
of the highest officers in the kingdom.
Pharaoh had been taken suddenly ill,
and it was thought probably that there
was a plot to poison him. Such things
were quite common in those days. It
could not be ascertained at first wheth
er it had emanated from the service of
the chief butler or the chief baker; so
both were thrown into prison pending an
investigation.
Being persons of high position they
were placed in a private portion of the
prison and Joseph was designated to
minister to them. I have no doubt
but that it was a welcome change to
Joseph which did much to relieve the
ennui # of prison life. He had learned
much of the customs and persons in
high life in Egypt during the many
years he served in General Potiphar’s
house; and to be thrown with these two
high officials must have brought back
some of those associations and added
new interest to his life, now so In
tensely monotonous.
He no doubt heard them discussing
the reasons for their imprisonment, and
without doubt both protested their in
nocence. But Joseph was a close ob
server and noted the difference between
the two men*—one open-faced and hon
est, the other reserved and keen-eyed.
OBSERVANT AND SYMPATHETIC.
Joseph was not only very observant,
but he had a broad human sympathy.
Outside the prison (and the rumors of
it no doubt seeped through the open
ings into the prison cells) great prep
arations were being made for the cele
bration of Pharaoh's birthday. Such
ocasions meant much in the life of the
ancient courts, and were frequently oc
casions on which the monarch displayed
his appreciation by granting pardon to
many prisoners.
These things had been coursing
through the minds of these two pris
oners of state. They had no doubt
talked about it for many days. One
morning just three days before the
celebration was to take place their
thought crystallized in a dream in the
case of each of them; but the dreams
troubled them for they could not fig
ure out the interpretation for them
selves, and being in prison it was noc
possible for them to secure the serv
ices of any of the many soothsayers in
Egypt.
When Joseph came in die noticed the
changed expressions and as he did his
work detected the sadness and per
plexity of their faces. His heart went
out to them; they were prisoners like
himself; he was suffering as they
were; and possibly they as unjustly as
he. His human sympathy expressed
itself finally in asking them what was
the trouble. And when he learned it
was only a dream or two, and that
they could not get in touch with the
soothsayers, he comforted them. His
word reveals the great secret of his
life—the consciousness of the constant
presence of God. God only could in
terpret dreams, and since He was with
him, he asked them to tell him what
the dreams were, having the assurance
of things hoped for—that God would
speak through him to them.
I do not know anything more re
freshing than Joseph’s faith in the
everpresent God. It had not been
dimmed by the years of servitude in
a heathen land nor by the hardships
of an unjust imprisonment. On the
contrary, it had been accentuated. Jo
seph knew that God was with him,
and all was right therefore. That
young man of 28 years was in con
stant fellowship with God; he knew
God would, reveal His secrets to him.
The dreams were told him. The
honesty and openfacedness of the chief
butler revealed itself in his dream,
and to him Joseph spoke words of
cheer. He was to be free on the king’s
birthday three day*/later, and restored
to his office. T.he investigation would
show that he Avas innocent of any plot
to take the life of the ruler. Then
Joseph pleaded for himself, proclaim
ing his innpcence and asking the great
influence of such a high official that
he might have justice done him.
The baker had been listening very
attentively. He knew his guilt, but
he hoped for as favorable an inter
pretation to his dream as had been
given to the butler. His keen eyes
had been watching all the while. So
he is emboldened to tell his dream.
But Joseph had been watching him,
and soon detected in the thieving birds
the evidence of his guilty conscience.
It was a hard thing to have to be
the bearer of bad news, but his duty
was plain and he did it.
All came true as he said. But he
was forgotten two full years. For
gotten? Yes, by the one whom he
had befriended, but not by God. Hp
was still assured of the conscious
ness of God’s presence, and he did
not grumble. That was the secret
of his life—that God was with him
and kept him right, and sweet, and
faithful; and it was the source of
strength and wisdom that made of
him the man that he grew to be.
That consciousness may be yours,
too. God grant that is shall be.

a little town (at that time) in Eerqtiinnius
county or some nearby county. He and my
husband’s father both died poor men by in
dorsing notes to help other people.
Uncle Richard was buried near the church
he built, and a small monument was erected
to his memory, which of late has been broken
off.
If. any of the readers are relatives of these
men I would like to hear from them.
I wonder if there are many Household writers
who spend their spare time crocheting and em
broidering?
All the time I have to spare I spend that
way. I don't mean to say I do not read, be
cause I do; but that isn’t spare time; that is
reading time, iind I have writing time, too.
But my time, aside from my reading, writing,
chicken tending, etc. You know we women
who are not very rich have a hundred and
one chores around the home.
But hack to my subject. I embroidered some
nice pieces last winter In rice stitch, that is
lovely work. I crocheted quite a number of
pieces, too. I like to make my own lace to
trim my pillow cases with. Now I am crochet
ing a buureau spread. I am making the Mal
tese braid and am going to use it and the
rick-rack together. I think it will be very
pretty.
Besides crocheting for myself, I get orders
from people and make for women’s exchanges.
I enjoy doing it. although it is confining; but
now I can get out on the piazza in the lovely
sunshine, where I can hoar the mocking bird
jiour out its notes of praise and thanksgiving,
while I often think how It performs its duty
and how short we come of ours.
Wishing the whole band of readers a pros
perous summer, I bid adieu.

AFTER COOKING TWO DINNERS
Dear Household: I gues sit is about time I
was paying you another visit if I don’t want
to be forgotten. So I will write And let you
know that I am stll navigating and that I
still enjoy the Household and read every letter
and each time I read Chat I resolve to write
at once, but somehow I keep putting it off and
every one knows how easy that is to do. *
I am very much interested in my chickens
right now, and when I tell you of a little ex
perience I had this inorniing you will think
that I am daft on the subject. My dinner was*
almost done (I am the cook) when “the man”
cak'd me and said there were three hens at the
barn ready to come off. Well, I dropped every
thing and rushed out to help take them off,
and what a pretty sight they were! Each
hen had fourteen lovely downy chicks and I
was so proud of them I stayed there longer
than I Intended to and when I got back my
•1 inner was burned to a crisp. Just think of it,
and I had a good dinner, too. There was
nothing to do but sta:t It all over again. You
don’t know how hard it was to do that unless
you’ve done it. Of course, I was vexed, but
I soon cooled off.
I have one hundred chicks and seven hens
sitting 1 have twenty-five large enough to
fry. I could get good prices for them now,
but I have none* to sell We have lots of com
pany, and 1 always want chicken on my bill
of fare.
I took a pleasant stroll with iny John this
morning down by a babbling brook. Nat. our
faithful shepherd, caught a terrapin, and he!
got furious because he could not bite the thing. ■
lie* labored with i* a long time, and finally ,
• left It in disgust.
Our fruit crop will bo almost a failure this
year. There are a l’ew peaches, but I expect
by the time this cold wind changes they will s
be finished, too, but I won’t borrow trouble, i
fetrawberies are very promising we have a I
very fine variety and they must do instead of I
peaches.
Miss Thomas, my garden is ahead of yours.
We have had cabbage for nearly a month.
Yoi certainly are gardening under difficulties.
I think I would hang that calf, or exchange
it for a dog and put It in. the garden to catch
those troublesome rabbits.
I don’t mean to take up al lour space and
will close by asking every man and woman who
has ever written to this page to Immediately
write again. Sincerely, LUCILE.
THOSE BUSY TWINS.
Dear Miss Thomas: Those babies, some little
chickens and the garden have kept me from
writing, but I’ve not missed reading the letters
and your words. Indeed, I’ve had some hearty
laughs over your experiences. Those two acres
are keeping-you busy, and a little bird told :
me that the roses are back on your cheeks.
We rejoice in your change from a desk to a
garden, if it makes you stronger again.
I haven’t a calf to tear things up ; ours is
in the pasture and will one of these days go to
the butcher. Two babies are enough to run
after, and it seems of late that they have be
come daft on the subject of the nests. I know
there should be china eggs, but when every
nickel counts for as much as a quarter: to some
folks, you can understand the wherefore of the
tbusness.
Yesterday I had arrayed them in their last
clean clothes and had seated them in the
swing with very plain instructions to stay
there. Of course I expected to keep my eyes
on them and dress at the same time. But a
squawk told me something was wrong in the
chicken yard, and out I flew. They flew, too,
I learned later. When I had settled the fracas
I heard a soft voice say, “Oo-oo-oo dirty baby!”
and the epithet fitted. A hen’s nest had been
robbed and the eggs squeezed, or the attempt
made to carry one ns the kitten usually is
hung on the arm, but the result was disas
trous.
One of the recent letters told how one mother
did all of her work and went when she had a
chance. My chance to go that time looked
very dim, but I didn’t 'do a thing but put on
the soiled dress I had taken off, covered it
with a lijtle coat and went just the same.
How true It is that one never knows what
she will -come to. I had no idea I’d ever
“cover up a dirty dress,” but that babg had
to go or her mother stay at home, and going
comes too seldom for her to do that.
I’ve got a hen that distresses me. She is a
big, gentle creature, and one of the babies
politely straddled her and took a seat. I
thought life was marked out for her, and wish
it had been, for she now looks like a penguin,
or kangaroo, or anything else that w'addles
along with part of its body on the ground. I
suppose the hen must eventually be killed. I’ve
been hoping she would recover, but not so.
I never have spanked them for a first offense.
They have so much to learn—things here are
so different from Babyland; but a fter I tell
them so that I think they really understand
that a thing is forbidden, then I impress it
physically as well as mentally. Seldom does
that happen, though their capacity for finding
new mischief is wonderful. One of them has
taken up the soap-eating habit. It’s turpen
tine soap* that proves the stronger temptation,
and the hired man—yes, we’ve a hired man
this year—and his soap at the well must be
put beyond the reach of tiptoes. I know there
must he something lacking in a child’s system
to make it crave such a dose, but we can’t “hit
the spot” with anything we have tried. But
one thing is certain: neither of them will ever
know the taste of tobacco 4n any of its forms
if The habit has to be learned at home. I
often think of the poor little fellow that Ala
bama Mary told us about. It's a shame.
But this letter must stop right here.
Sincerely,
MBS. ALEXANDER.

SUFFRAGETTES ROUNDED
UP BE ENGLISH POLICE
Mrs, Drummond and Associ
ates Are Re-arrested When
Headquarters Are Raided
(By Associated Press.)
AUGUSTA, Ga., May 1.—White
office today inaugurated its active cam
paign to put an end to suffragette mili
tancy. Headquarters of the women’s
social and political union, where many
outrages were said to have been planned,
was occupied by the police and all* the
active leaders taken into custody.
Even “General” Mrs. Flora Drummond
and Miss Annie Kenney, who were out
cn bail, were arrested on a fresh charge
of conspiring with the members of the
Pankhurst family to commit malicious
damage.
Over 100 policemen and detectives
from Scotland Yards were engaged in
the capture of the militant offices. They
had scarcely taken possession of the
place when “General” Drummond, ap
parently ignorant of what had happened,
arrived and was admitted, not realizing
that she had voluntarily entered the
lion’s den until she found herself under
arrest.
Miss Barbara Kerr, the secretary of
Woman's. Social and Political
the
union; Misses Lane, Lennox and Bar
rett and Mrs. Saunders, the officials
of the society, who were in charge of
the offices at the time, of the ' raid,
were arrested and a large quantity of
documents was seized. ,
Several typists and clerks were or
dered to leave the premises, which were
then closed, and policemen left on
guard.
The ' women arrested were charged
with conspiracy or with violations of
the malicious damages act.
CONSPIRACY?
Archibald Bodkin, counsel for the
treasury, prosecuted on behalf of the
government. He said the proceed
ings involved a charge of conspiracy
and had been taken to bring to an end
“a state of affairs which has become
dangerous to the civilized portion of
the community in the British isles.”
Mr. Bodkin intimated that still more
serious charges might be brought
against the prisoners when the police
had completed their investigations into
the “nefarious practices” of the organ
ization.
He warned aiders and abettors of the
society as well as its contributors,
among whom are • many American
women.
