/ 1 THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1913. THE EVENING STORY SPRING (Copyright, 1913, by W. Werner.) FASHIONS SLEEP. , O slep, we are beholden to thee, sleep, Thou bcarest angels to us in the night, Saints out of heaven with palms. Seen by thy light, Sorrow is some old tale that goeth not t <ieep: Love is a pouting child. Once I did sweep Through space with thee, and, lo, a dazzling sight— • Stars! They came on; I felt their drawing and might; And some had dark companions. Once (I weep When I remember that) we sailed the tide. And found fair isles, where no isles used to bide, And met there my lost love, who said to me That twas a long mistake: he had not died. Sleep, in the world to come how strange ’twill be. • Never to want, never to wish for thee! ^ —Jean Ingelow. “Sleep! What a rich boon it is to frail and weary men! It is one of God’s purest acts of beneficence. He gives what He never needs, what He never takes. He sheds a sweet oblivion round and round the world. Himself keeping watch, while man and beast and bird, and even, in a measure, bud and leaf and blossom take their rest. Sleep! It comes to the wet sea-boy in the rudest hour, to the poor slave in the intervals of his hopeless task, to the traveler in the forest or on mountains, and—mar vel of mercies!—to the sinner under the heavy load of his sin.’ —Dr. Ra»eigh. “Different matters are arranged in • my head as in drawers. I open one drawer and close another as I wish. T have never been kept awake by an in voluntary preoccupation of the nun<l. Tf I desire repose, I shut up all the drawers, and sleep. I have, always slept when I wanted rest, and almost at will.’’—Napoleon. Bessie came to see me this month. She liad a book she had enjoyed, and wanted me to share her pleasure. “Their Yesterdays/’ by\ Harold Bell * Wright, is the title, atid I wish you could come to see us and hear it read. Some parts are.so good that as I read it I put markers among the pages to find th passages and reread them. The heroine of the story had to work for her living, and this is the way that it was put: “There are many doors in the life of these modern days at which a woman may knock with hope of being admitted; and this woman, as she sat alone before her fire that night, paused before them all—all save two. Two doors she saw but did not* pause before: and one of them was idleness and pleasure. And one other door there is that stands open wide so that there is no need to knock for admittance. Be fore ‘ this wide-open door the woman paused a long time. It is older than the other doors. It is very, very old. Since the beginning it has never been closed. But, though it stood open so wide and 'there was no need to knock for ad mittance, still the woman could not en ter, for she was alone. No woman may enter that old, old open door, alone. If you have not read the book and want a clear insight into the lives of men and women out in this work-a-day world, get it. There is all the way _ through it a faint suggestion of a love 9 «tory—just enough to keep you tempted to turn to the last chapter and see if they ever really married “and lived hap py ever after.’’ There are thirteen truly great things in life. I won’t tell you what Mr. .Wright calls them. Some of you Will be surprised to know some of them are thus looked upon. Others will say, “of course, I’ve always said that.” This book is one of the few that you may put on the same shelf with “The Reveries of a Bachelor,” or your favor ite poet, or George Eliot’s best. In fact, there is a quaint touch about it that takes one back to Dickens, too. But I won't say any more about it this time. -I hope that some of you who have read something that has left a bad taste in your mouth will send for this to sweeten things. *. ’ \ thought stayed by me, or this question clung to my mind, shouldn't we argue out the matter that brings melancholy and conquer it? If one’s life is not along the lines of moderation and help fulness, if one’s conscience upbraids then change things. If it’s a physical matter that causes the blues, try to get ride of it. At any rate, let your motto be— ‘Let me live in my house by the side of the road' Where the race of men go by. They are good, they are bad, they are weak, they are strong. Wise, foolish—so am I. Then why should 1 sit in the scorners’ seat, Or hurl the cynics ban? Let me live in my house by the side of the road And be a friend to man.” Faithfully yours, LIZZIE O. THOMAS. This has been such a busy summer there has not beep the usual amount of reading. Then . my environment has tempted fne to enjoy the spirit of the woods, to listen to the whispering In the trees, the twitter of the birds, the songs of Mr. Mocker, the oriole and thrush, to inhale the faint perfume that the breezes brought and' simply enjoy them instead of even my faithful book friends. There will be plenty of time in the long winter evenings, beside the cosy fire, to read. Boreas will have driven the breezes away, the frost king will have claimed a season and around the cheerful fire the books will banish loneliness and supply the mind with food for another summer. “When are you happiest?” was the question put to me the other day. “Don’t you long for -winter evenings when you can sit down and enjoy a good book or your favorite fancy work?” I must confess that I seldom build ai~ castles or long for the future. The present is. the time that appeals to me. It passes so swiftly that ere I do half ' the things that really belong to it, there is another season on and changes must be made. All of us should look before and behind us enough to know that we are doing the best we can, too much in trospection is as bad as the thoughtless, witless way that some have. I was with a lady who was buying things for her home. She picked up a framed quo tation that I like very much. “This can’t go in my walls,” she satd. “It would give my husband the blues in no time. I must get lively things.’’ The A CHIEL'S AMONG YE TAKIN’ NOTES. Dear Miss Thomson: 1 enjoyed Dorothy Gray’s letter, but I had a hearty laugh over a mistake that the printers made. She said that she used peanut butter and potted beef in her sandwiches and they put'It potted beer; seems to me that the proof reader might have caught such an error. I know of Mrs. Dorothy Gray, and there never was even ’simmon beer in her pantry much less potted beer, whatever that might lie. A neighbor was talking about the letter and said she was surprised at Mrs. Dor othy Gray, the idea of her taking beer to a picnic. I explained how easy it was to make such a mistake in printing and the dear lady was much pleased to have that explanation. But Miss Thomas, ask Mr. Printer not lo put any more beer in Our Household; it’s a mighty poor substitute for beef, though many a man has used Ids beef money that way. That picnic sohudofi so alluring that I forth with gathered my small nephews and nieces, as well as little Jamec and Annie and off - we went to a branch and played that we were on the banks of a river. The men of the family came later and we had some watermelons as well as sandwiches and tea cakes. Of course, the children got full of red bugs, that i6 one of the usual incidents connected with a trip to the woods, but I bathed them in salt and water and the tiny creatures did not have time to begin their deadly work, a good turpentine soap will keep them from biting and we gen erally take these precautions, for there are few things worse than to be “clawed” By red hugs. School begins this month and I will be both glad and sorrv. We will have the same teach er that we had last year. She is a fine woman and is helping the whole community by helping our children. We love her very much and hope nothing but matrimony will ever Induce her to leave us. That should be the sure end of every woman, or so thinks MRS". GRIFFITH. 20.000 SCHOOL KIDS PLAY HOOKY IN CHICAGO The Weather Was Too Fine on the First Day, So Everybody "Laid Out" CHICAGO, Sept. 4.—With the ther mometer at 97, about 20,000 children “played hookey” yesterday, the first day of school, according to estimates of ab sentees. There was a gentle breeze from the southwest that barely made a ripple on Lake Michigan, and thousands of youngsters of school age were playing on the beaches and in the parks when they should-have been getting acquaint ed with their new teacher. Despite the oppressive heat, the en rollment was estimated at 300.000. School authorities do not expect a full enrollment until the arrival of cooler weather within a week or two. In the American districts, according to Superintendent Ella Flegg Young, it was noticed that many children were ab- serit, while in the foreign quarters there was practically a full registration. Society Women Held On Federal Warrant CLEVELAND. Ohio, Sept. 4.—Arrest ed at her home tit midnight and brought to Cleveland eanly today, Mrs. Marga ret A. Carter, an Alyria, Ohio, society woman, is confined in the county jail charged by federal authorities with using the mails to defraud. It is alleged that she wrote Miss Lil lian Huntington, daughter of W. R. Huntington, retired business man and well known Great Lakes yachtsman, asking for $3,000 under pain of having her. fiancee, a young Cleveland club man, taken from her. In the letter she is alleged to have represented herself as a young woman, Miss Huntington’s fiancee had promised to marry, suggesting that if the Elyria society girl wanted the young man she would have to pay the stipulated sum or the writer would take hi mherself. Miss Huntington is the granddaughter of John Huntington, wealthy Cleveland er, who on his death bed left $1,000,000 for an art museum, now being con structed. i Mrs. Carter, fifty years old, is the wife of a retired tobacco manufacturer, and had moved in the best circles in Elyria. She maintains her innocence. Pinned Beneath Car; Fires Pistol for Aid mD\ Mrs. Santee lay comfortably in bed. : ply it. At any rate, we’ll see.

She took | the magazine from the doctor’s hand and begun to turn the pages herself. “The styles seem t ohave changed wonderful ly since I’ve been ill. Why, even elderly ; ladies are wearing these bright colors.” “Think of it!” mused the doctor, seaching for another color plate. "Look at this, Mrs. Santee. Just imagine how ; you’d look in it!” “Mamma would look perfectly lovely in that,” urged Rose, not qfcite under standing what all this behavior was leading up to. “Would she?” the doctor scoffed. “W r ell, she wouldn’t think of wearing it. Or any of these absurd styles. That’s why I wanted her to see them. I knew they’d amuse her. That green suit i you’re looking at now, Mrs. Santee— | they’ve got one just like it at Part- i ridge’s.

I want to prepare your .mother’s drops.” Mrs. Santee continued to look at the journals. After the doctor had gone she called Rose. “I wish, dear, you’d SUGGEST IT SWEPT IE TAX BY IE nr/vfrr&t. ‘Do you see through my plan, Bose?” (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) COLUMBUS. Ga-. .Sept. 4.—Culver Palmer came near being killed under an automobile late yesterday, when the big machine skidded, running into ditch and pinioning him beneath the steering wheel, where he was forced to remain some time, when he finally suc ceeded in getting his hand on a pistol in the car, firing it off in efforts to at tract aid, which soon came. Had it not been for the pistol, it is beleved that the young man would have been killed, as he was almost exhausted when taken from underneath the car. -A Human Match Factory* The body contains phosphorus sufficient to make 483,000 matches.

And Mrs. Santee lay at peace. She had lain that way a long time. An illness had put her in bed, but she was no longer ill. She did not even look ill. There was a faint flush on her high cheek bones. Her hands had a firm, healthy look as they lay re laxed upon the counterpane. Her eyes were closed. Mrs. Santee had always been deli cate. Moreover, because of this she had always had her own way. When she could not have her own way she went to bed and inconvenienced her household until she, got it. Rose could see to everything downstairs. Faith ful service was her rightful due in return for having brought a great strapping girl into the, world. And while Rose was busy about her mother’s person she was not like to have much time to think about mar riage. Mrs. Santee was determined Rose should not marry. And the only way she could work out her plan w’as by. staying in bed and keeping Rose in attendance upon her. To be sure, she had to have a doc tor in waiting. But she had been very particular about her selection of a doctor. None of the flippant, young new school fellows for her, who would make love to Rose the second time they came. No; she had chosen Dr. Gordon. He was forty and plain and a woman hater. “The old grouch,” she called him. Rose wouldn’t be able to hatch up much romance about “the old grouch.” He would not look at Rose. So Mrs. Santee rested content and enjoyed her long siesta. The door opened gently and Rose en tered. She had finished the morning’s work downstairs and had come up to see if her mother wanted anything, xwoue was tall and slim, the kind of a girl who looks best in a skimpy skirt and severely tailored white shirt waist. She had wavy black hair and dark gray eyes and fine, sweet features. She was not pretty, but she had an air of style that was better than prettiness. “Resting, mother?” Rose asked. She went to the window, twitching a fold of the curtain into place. On a distant tennis,court a quartet of young people were playing a brisk game. She could hear their shouts and laughter, could see the flash of the rackets in the sun. And she sighed. There was where she longed to be, not cooped up indoors with a sick mother. Yet she knew what her duty was and rebelled against it in her mind occasionally. Rose believed her mother was really ill. With her own boundless young strength and energy she could not un derstand how anybody could stay in bed through s ( uch lovely spring weather as this without being seriously indis posed. She could not think of any ca lamity more fearful befalling one, es pecially in springtime. For herself she envied the vigorous young folks in the tennis court. The strohg daughter of a sick mother must use her strength in one way, and that was to make sickness less of a burden. Rose bent over and kissed hep mother. “Dear, what can I do for you?” “Nothing—-nothing.” Mrs. Santee shook her head. Her eyes fell shut. “I just want to lie still. Ah, what’s that?” She started violently. “It’s only the door bell, mother. It sounds louder because the house is so still this morning. I will go down and see waht it fs.” Rose went downstairs swiftly. She pulled open the door and there stood the doctor. The old gUouch was just as tall as Rose, but no taller. 1-Ie had thick, sandy hair and a straight cut # sandy mustache. His eyes were blue FinCIS Help III Lr r dl& E. Pinfa> and remarkably keen: There was kindness, too, in them, though it did not always get where it showed. Fie had a determined mouth and fine teeth. Take It all in all, it was the solemn gloom of his expression more than his features that made him plain. But just now, at sight' of the girl on the threshold, there was no solemn gloom, only a young gladness and eagerness. They smiled at and greeted each other and the doctor entered. He had a parcel of magazines under one arm and he drew them forth to show to the girl. “See here, Rose, what I’ve got,” he said. He often brought her books and magazines. “For me? Oh ” Rose began, de lighted, but he stopped her. ”No, these are for your mother. I’ve a plan. But first I’ll give you what I brought for you.” He drew a lithographed and beribboned box from his pocket. Chocolates!” said Rose. The warm Would Have Increase on Big Fortunes Only When In comes Exceed $250,000 (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.—An increase of the- income tax on large fortunes only when the incomes run above $250,- 000 annually, is the basis of a compro mise Democratic members of the sen ate finance committee will recommend to the caucus tomorrow night. The attitude of the so-called insurgent Democrats today was such as to in dicate they would not accept the ar rangement without a fight, and the caucus may extend two or three days. The finance committee members have decided to leave the rates of the in come tax, as at present, up to the $*150,000 mark. The new taxes now proposed in ad dition to the normal tax above the $3,- 000 maximum are 4 per cent addi tional from $250,000 to $500,000, 5 per cent from $500,000 to $1,000,000, and 6 per cent above $1,000,000. The senate will adjourn at 5 p. m. tomorrow and the Deocratlc caucus will then begin its efforts to agree on the remaining provisions of the bill. It Is estimated there are 550 per sons in this country with incomes be tween $250,000 and $500,000, 350 with incomes between $500,000 and $1,000,- 000, and more than 100 w r ith incomes above $1,000,000. The committee Democrats will recom mend to the Democratic caucus that the original provisions of the house bill taxing the entire income of mutual in surance companies be retained. The finance committee had recommended the exemption of that portion of the income returned to policyholders in the form of dividends.

Rose took the plate along to be sure. It was very beautiful, she thought, and so she told her mother. Mrs. Santee looked excited and flushed. She sat up in bed to talk about it. “And they’ve got the dearest hat to go with it,” Rose cried. “They showed it to me. And they tried to get me to buy it.” “You?” said Mrs. Santee. “You’d look like a gypsy In.that color. Green was always my color.” She thought rest lessly for a moment. “Rose,” she com manded, “you go to the plione and or der that suit from Partridge’s. I am going to have it.” Rose ordered the suit and hat to be sent up. They ejame within an hour. They were all the’y promised and more. Mrs. Santee sat up in bed and had her hair fixed so she could try on the hat. Rose held a glass for her. The effect was eminently gratifying. “JjVe a great mind to see if I can’t try on the suit,” she ventured. It was two days before the doctoi called again. Rose let him in, a pic ture of happiness. “Mother upstairs yet?” he inquired with a twi'jikle in his nice eyes. “Yes, but she’s dressing to go for a drive.

NORFOLK, Va., Sept. 4.—A severe northeast storm swept the Virginia, North Carolina and Maryland coasts to day, with the wind reaching a maximum velocity at Cape Henry early this morn ing of forty-eight miles an hour from the east. The four-masted coasting schooner Richard F. C. Hartley, from New York to Charleston, S. C., with salt, which went ashore yesterday between Bodies island and Cape Jiatteras, with the loss of two members of her crew, broke up in the high seas of today and much oi the wreckage came asnore along the coast. Captain Sprague, of Stockton Springs, Maine, and the four surviving members of the Hartley’s crew were today being cared for by the life savers of the Chicamicomic life saving station, who effected their res cue. The schooner Hartley was twenty- five years old, having been built at Batn, Maine, in 1888. She carried a crew of seven men. The storm raged with great severity on this coast today and many sailing vessels sought shelter in Hampton roads. Tne v-esels of the Atlantic bat tle fleet now in Hampton roads rode the storm in perfect safety, but the blow even in Hampton roads was the worst of the present season. All incoming Washington and Baltimore bay boats had rough experiences during the nigiit and other bay boats found it very severe today.

Rose?” he asked. “I think you are a wonderful doctor.” He picked up her hand, studied it a moment and then her face. “Maybe you’d object to marrying the old grouch?” he asked whimsically. “You’re not the old grouch!” Rose cried furiously. Then, as he drew her to him in a fast clasp, sh|, murmured dizzily “to me.” GRAND DUKE WRITES SOME GRAND OPERA ST.
