As a matter of fact, for the moment I really had nothing else to do but to dine or go to the dansants with him. But. possibly because I did not really like him very much, his air of proprietorship annoyed me. Also, all day long in spite of my reasoning. I could not but listen for the telephone in vain hopes that Howard would call me and forgive me for my disloyalty to him. But several days passed and not a word. came from the youth for whom I had come really to can*. It seemed impossible for me to make the first advance to ask for How ard's forgiveness. Thus I told myself 1 had no choice. Since 1 could -not get Howard 1 would have to put up with June. It did not dawn upon me that I might stay home and not dine with either of these young men. I thought I had to go to the theater or some sort of party every night. Indeed the more my heart ached for Howard, the more I craved gayety to make me forget him. So I accepted June’s invitations evening after evening. permitted hts caresses, and his increasingly intimate conversa tion until-his air of ownership when he was wit£ me was really justified. And now. too. June began to talk of the things he would buy me. He look ed me over appraisingly when he met me and told me I "needed a new eve ning gown." or asked me why I did not “get a pair of the white kid top boots," which were just then fashion able and very expensive. "June.” 1 protested. “I can't afford things like that! And even if I could, I have nothing to go with them.” We were seated opposite each other at a table in a restaurant when the dis cussion about the boots came up. "Well. Di." June answered, "what do vou want me to do? Shall we go on a shopping expedish. or shall I give you the money for them? I want you to have pretty things, little girl. Gee! You're such a peach you make everybody sit up and take notice now! I want you to have some real duds, so that everybody will know I have the pret tiest girl In town!" I did not know what to say. To be sure my eyes were shining at the thought of the pretty things I so long ed to possess, but June’s tone was so business like it chilled me. Certainly I did not want to go shopping with him. And I hated his giving me the money outright. I was in a quandary. “You se. Di." June continued. “1 can't buy the sort of things you ought to have unless you are with me. 1 don't know your size. 1 tell you what we’d better do —come on back to my rooms and we'll talk it over." “Your rooms?" I repeated. “I thought you lived with your mother and father?" June grinned. “Oh. that’s my official address.” he told me easily. - “A bachelor has to have some sort of quarters where he ?an entertain a bit, you know. Come on. you’ll see I’m cosy as I can be. No thought of indiscretion entered my mind. I was too intent upon vi sions of the things June promised to buy me and how 1 was to get them. 1 THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1917. Post-Mortem Benevolence and the 1 nheritance Tax—Bishop Candler I‘ost-mortem benevolence, by means of legacies, is never quite as good as gifts made for philanthropic purposes during the life-time of the giver. There may lie, now and then, some con trolling reasons whereby a man is moved to tiequeath money to benevo lent institutions which he could not give in his lifetime; but it is always unfortunate when such is the case. He thereby deprives himself of seeing the fruits of his gifts and enjoying tlte sight of the good done by them. Moreover wills are easily broken and nianj a benevolent purpose, which men have designed to accomplish through wills, lias been defeated by legal pro cesses after the testators had passed away. Even as great a lawyer as Mr. Samuel J. Tilden was unable to write a will that could not be broken; he left a larffe to benevolent purposes, but his will was not hela to be a good one. Who cannot reeali many cases in wnich benevolent bequests produced costly litigation and failed of the pur poses at which those who made them aimed. In addition to all these considerations tnere is another reason for benevolent people making their gifts while they live, .nstead of waiting to accomplish their purposes by legacies after they are dead, and that reasofl is that the laws which provide for an inheritance tax take out a considerable part of legacies now. The treasury of the state of Georgia will be replenished during the current year by considerable sums front this source. Now. if a man wishes to leave a lega cy to the state he is perfectly compe followed him obediently to a taxicab.. In a few moments he was opening the door of his rooms with his latchkey. With a gesture he switched on the light. “There!” he said. "Welcome home. Princess." I looked about me. There was a com fortable sitting room with a pianola and a victrola and beyond I caught a glimpse of a bedroom, perhaps a little over luxurious, for a man. June turned to me. “You know. Di,” he said abruptly, “what I’ve been thinking would be a great lark all along would be for you to leave that stuffy old rooming house of your mother's and come live here. Wouldn’t you like It better?” I stared at him. There was some thing so cold in June’s manner for the moment that a chill came to my own heart, too. I felt poised, utterly un stirred by emotion, clear brained, as though I could face the situation, weigh it and choose, as though the girl in volved were not myself. “Please," I said slowly, “will you tell me a little bit shore of what you mean?” June turned from me and opened a cigarette case which was on the table a little nervously. "Well. Di,” he said slowly, “of course you know I'm not the marrying kind, but I’m awfully keen on you. There isn’t anything.” his laugh was a little shaky, “I wouldn’t do for you this side of the altar. I guess the time has come for us to talk it over.” No. 48 —June’s Philosophy ♦ If only vice were uniformly -» ♦ unattractive we could let our ♦ e- consciences rust in peace. ♦ I SANK into a chair in the sitting room of JQne’s apartment. I did not speak. It seemed to me it was his place to continue the conversa tion. He had just told me there wasn’t anything he would not do for me “thia side of the altar,” but that he was not “the marrying kind.” As a matter of fact, marriage with him had not cross ed my own mind. I was not in the least in love with him and I was still young enough to dream of a fairy prince who would suddenly come to woo me. showering upon me thrills and jewels. But since June thus informed me of his I intentions, or lack of them, I imagined he probably had more to say about his ' point of view. In which I was right. moment or two he continued to fuss absent-mindedly with the fringe of a scarf which was on the table. "I see,” I said slowly. “I think 1 understand. I mean. I understand about the other girl you are going to marry. But just how do I come in?” June rose from his place and came towards my chair. “You?” he asked, and his voice was a little husky. “Why, you’re the real girl. You’re the girl who gets every thing. Di, you'd always be the girl I love! You're the girl I’d be with every minute that I could! And, sweetheart, I'll put every cent I can lay my hands on into your pocketbook to throw away any old way you like! You love to spend money—l know it. I’ll show you how to do it!” By this time his arms were about my shoulders. “It’s* like this, Di.” he began, “you see, my old man has an awful pile. "I’m his only son. Some day I’ll have it. To have a whole lot of money like that is a great responsibility. You can’t just step in and do anything you want with it. You have, more or less, to be trained to managing it properly. The kind of girl I like, that I can be friends with and love—your kind—has not been brought up to be a figurehead on a bunch of millions. When I say I'm ‘not the marrying kind’ I mean I can’t marry the kind of girl I want to. Some day, of course. I’ll have to marry some skinny, cold-blooded fish who’s been brought up to do the society game. But meanwhile —I want a regular girl. And. Di, I’m crazy over you—you can have anything you want —!” I had been listening intently to every word June said. Although he had tried to veil it, to word it in as flattering a way as possible to me, I was neverthe less shrewd enough to catch the real drift of what he was telling me. Al though it did not quite crystallize in my mind. I felt instinctively he only was saying very elaborately that I was not good enough to marry. My pride was hurt. And my hurt pride, together with his lack of real attraction to me, served me in the stead of the morality which I had not. "Di!" he whispered close to my cheek. “We’ll paint this old town the brightest scarlet it's ever seen!" • I managed to get my palms against his chest. I pushed his warm, flushed young face away from me. "But what am I to do?” I protested “How am I to live?” June paused for a moment. “Well.” he said, “you can come here for a few weeks until we have time to furnish a real place for you. You can call yourself Mrs. Somebody or other. Oh. Di, Kiss me! Don’t hold out like this!” With a sudden swift impulse tha came from I know not where, I arose i to mv feet. “I won’t!” I cried. "I won’t! I won’t! 1 won’t!” II ’ 1 lent to make such a bequest and 4he state would doubtless receive it glart iy; but if a testator niins to give mon •.i to a p.iiianthropic enterprise, he irobably does not wish part of it to go into the treasury of the state. It is a questionable policy for the state to repress philanthropy by such laws. It would seem io be in the in terest of the public that the state en courage bequests to benevolent institu tions; for such bequests take off from (he state burdens which otherwise the whole community would have to bear in the form of taxes for meeting these public ends. For example, a bequest to a hospital relieves the public treasury of the necessity of an equal appropria tion to accomplish the same purpose. In like manner gifts to educational in stitutions meet educational wants which otherwise would have to be met by appropriations from the treasury of the state. Georgia's appropriations to higher education would have to be more than five times as great as they now are, if there were no other educa tional institutions than those which the state supports. It is obvious, therefore, that it would be wtfse for the State to exempt bequests to benevolent institutions from the oper ation of the law which imposes an in heritance tax; but the authorities of the State have adopted a different policy, and men and institutions must submit to the law as they find it. The tax on bequests for philanthropic purposes must be honestly and fully paid, although In exacting it the State plays the discred itable part of Hophpi and Phinehas, the grasping sons of Eli, who appropriated to their own uses the offerings „ which God's people had laid upon the altar. The law being such as it is, it be hooves men and women, who have a mind to do benevolent things, to do what they propose before they die. Dei them give what they intend to give wh-ile they are yet in life, and have the glad experience of seeing >the good which their gifts accomplish. In truth, that is no gift at all which a man undertakes to give through a will. A man can no more make a gift after he is dead than he. can make a crop. A will merely projects into the fu ture a man’s desires* concerning money Which he can no longer use. A legacy merely expresses what a testator desires with reference to property which death has wrenched from his hands. Real and genuine g*ifts are, by the very nature of his case, confined to one’s lifetime. Perhaps the reason that some people make legacies rather than gifts is their unwillingness to part with their money while they can devote it to their own uses. They Wish to do good, but they do not wish to do good at the cost of any inconvenience or self-denial to them selves. While this is not true in every case, it is doubtless true with regard to many of the bequests which are made. Certainly It would be far nobler and far better that men and women relax their hold upon their property and turn it to good while still in the flesh. There is about such giving a generosity and large-heartedness which can not possibly be attached to legacies. Gifts made In life do not look like they were wrenched from their donors, but that they were freely given by benevolent hands. On the contrary legacies seem to indicate that the testators were wedded to thear property as truly as to their wives, vow ing that they would not be separated from such property “until death do us part." - , Attention is called to this matter that any who may be contemplating post morten benevolence may be' tnoved to consider the wisdom of doing what they propose before they die. And surely, with the ever increasing wealth which is coming to us, many of our people do not propose to live and die without con tributing anything to the public good. It would be humiliating to -believe that men and women of means among us have no eyes to see and no hearts to care for the splendid opportunities for good which are all around them. The educational institutions of the south are so far behind financially the institutions of other sections, it is hard to believe that our people of means can withhold longer generous gifts to these institutions. Both patriotism and piety should impel them to do generous things in this direction to the end that the south may be brought abreast with edu cational progress in other sections of our country and in the other civilized Countries of the world. No right-minded man or woman will be willing for the youth of the south to be denied longer educational advantages equal to the best offered the youth of any other section of the United States. It may not be amiss to suggest that a man sometimes deceives himself by pro posing to leave something in his will for the cause of education rather than give it while he lives. Thereby he sat isfies his conscience with refrence to present duty by promise of future good. He discounts his own good intentions and misleads himself by feeling that he has done what he vaguely hopes he will do. It is known that the owner of a very large estate, about which there has been most costly litigation which is still pending in the courts, and which will doubtless cost more yet, a few months before he died said he proposed to make large bequests to the cause of education in Georgia. It now appears that he made no will at all, and unless he made a will which has been some how destroyed or put out of the way, he merely deluded himself as to his inten tions by postponing his benevolence un til after his death. He had the smallest possible reason for indulging postmortem benevolence; for while he lived he was without any near dependents. He had no children, and he might have parted with, many thousands of dollars without depriving himself or any who had just claims up on him of even so much as one luxury, to say nothing of the necessities of life. Now his estate is being dissi pated by process in the courts and wasteful litigation. He would perhaps have done better to have made a will I and divided his estate among the law yers. At least that process might have saved the time of the courts, and, per haps have accomplished other useful ends. As it is, nothing is coming of his great estate that is either credita ble to himself, or beneficial to man kind. This case is mentioned as a warning to others who may be telling them selves that they are going to do some great and good things after they are dead. Det all such people consider carefully the contingencies and uncer tainties involved in the postmortem ■ method of doing good which they pro- 1 pose. Det them also remember that the | tax gatherer has authority to snatch a part of their legacies away from the benevolent enterprises which they may desire to help, and to convert It Into the treasury of the state, where it will | go to pay legislators to talk and to pro vide courts before which voluble at torneys will wrangle at public expense. If testators wish to give money to such purposes, and to some other pur poses even less worthy, for which atate appropriations are made, then the way to do It is to make large bequests which the state can heavily tax. But if they wish all of what they give to go directly and wholly to the benevolent enterprises which they wish to help, let them make their gifts be fore they dia. j FULLjizI DINNER SET FREE WHOWRITESuI VOU we E T?uI?Y""" EV Most Splendid Opportunity Ever Offered )n Everyth I ng.

Philadelphia, well nar&ted as the City of Brotherly Dove, has had the sensa tion of the past week. A young woman who had been posing as an artist’s mod el, which means she undressed herself and allowed these men picture makers portray her body, and limbs on their easels, was found in her apartments dead, evidently murdered, first by some blunt Instrument and later by strangu lation, her own silk stocking tied about her throat, etc. As the investigation progressed it was developed that she had several men, one or more married men, in constant association with her self and presumably leading a life of every-day prostitution. One of these men paid for the rent of the apartment, others contributed jewelry and paid for wine and dinners, etc. One left his wife and little daughter to be constantly with this, woman, who was known to have a "perfect figure.” His parents were Pittsburg millionaires and the de generate son had spent his patrimony in "riotous living."—Threw away a world to live In sin. ' After tracing various clews the de tectives had this man spotted and final ly imprisoned in his own lodging place, nearly a week after the murdered wom an's body had been found. As these police officers were just about to arrest him he betook himself to the bathroom and shot himself. Two of these degen erates are now dead and some others are under surveillance by the detectives. Shame and disgrace has been laid in heavy hands upon the families of these dead ones. The story has been flashed from ocean to ocean and from the lakes to the gulf. From my viewpoint, they have run the race and have received the reward, a bad life together and a bad ending in death. Those who cared for them are well rid of them. The beauty of the woman was the lure of this tragic destruction. The wages of sin is death'. Nothing surer —-cause produces effect.

I know of a case where a man who stood high in the church concluded to ruin his partners, and he hid the money in his children’s names, but the people who understood his conduct turned a cold shoulder to him until he actually felt obliged to move his resi dence. His brazen heart quailed before public opinion. Marriage is the most potential con tract that was ever entered into, and should be safeguarded by legal and moral forces, and its violations should be also marked by the stringent force of public opinion. The domestic life of na tions depends on the regard that is shown to the marriage relation. I have known women who had to beg for the money to buy clothes for the children and could not get a dollar for herself without humbly begging for it. There is a joke that travels the circuit among the heartless and unthinking about the woman who searches her husband’s pockets. It is like the mother-in-law joke which gets in the papers at every full and change of the moon. The brute who could make his wife miserable by denying hrer the privilege of spending a dollar should be whipped at the cart's tail until he begged her pardon and asked her to be his guardian.
