THE SUNNY SOUTH ATLANTA, GA*, SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 17, 1891.
HEART’S SOFTENING.
Unit a Little Samaritan and a Bleb
Landlord.
What Befell Hope Leslie's Mother’s
Home and Made All
Happy.
SMALL, poorly for-
nlahed room with
three occupant*. One
was a thickset, hroad-
ehoaldered man, while
before him
le, Blender
’ whoee appealing eyee
re raised entreat
lngly to his cold face.
The sunshine looking
in at the window oast
a flood of radiance
over the fairy form of
a little ten-year-old
whose bine eyee were fixed ct>m-
pnhendlngly upon the scenes before
her.
'■If yon will only give me time, Mr.
Wambl My illness the past month has
kept me from sewing. I have only five
dollars, but I will pay you as soon as 1
ean earn the rest.”
“Timet that’s what they all want. No,
madams, 1 want my money—the whole
of It now, or to night you may find other
quarters.”
The widow clasped her hands.
She did not weep, but the struggle
with whioh she refrained from doing so
was evident.
But little Hope was not daunted.
“If yon will wait two days, Mr. War
ren, I ean give you the money.”
“You—you midget—how?”
Curiosity prompted the question, but
aa the old man turned and looked npon
the beautifhl child, an expression of sur
prise was visible upon his faoe. Few
so aid see Hope Lesley without a thrill of
admiration, she wss so ethereally, grace-
folly formed: and if ever a mortal face
ean be termed “angelic,” hers was. Her
Mae eyes were large and lustrous, her
skin exquisitely fair, while about her
like an aureole floated a cloud of long
golden ringlets.
“I can easily get five dollars for my
hair,” the little girl replied, with a nod
of her head which set all her curls
ing and gleaming in the sunlight.
“Never, Hope, never! I would not al
low it!” Mrs. Lesley exclaimed.
The old man laughed gruffly.
“At any rate, I am not going to wait.
The rent is overdue a week already. You
Must go.”
An he left the room the child flew to
her mother, and in each otter’s arms the
tears came that they had been too proud
t» let their unfeeling landlord see.
It was but a poor home they were los
ing, but it was a safe shelter, and with
no money, where could they gc 1
Suddenly a great clamor arose without
—a clatter of hoofs, loud shrieks, and
then the confusion of many voices.
Something dreadful tad happened.
Aroused from their own troubles, the
mother and daughter by one impulse
hastened to the window.
There had been a runaway, and some
one bad been hurt—a man, fer even then
they were lifting him. A keener glance
and Mrs. Lesley recognized teat thickset
form.
“Stay here, Hope, while I go down. It
is Mr. Warren, and I am afraid he has
been killed. How awful!”
“He’s dying ma’am,” a bystander an
swered to her inquiries. “We've sent
for an ambulance, but I’m afraid he’ll be
gone before it comes.”
“He mast not cie cut here in the street.
If some of you will carry niu up to my
room 1 will care for him until the ambu
lance comes ”
And so, shattered and bleeding, he was
carried np the narrow stairs he bad so
recently descended in health and vigour.
Two weeks elapsed in Mrs. Lesley’s
room still lay the ii jnred man. It had
been found Impossible to remove him,
and since the accident he had been cared
for and tended by Mrs. Lesley and little
Hope, It not btlng easy for th6m, for
Mr. Warren was a man alone in the
world, with no relatives or friends, and
Mrs. Lesley knew of no one to whom to
apply for help in his name. But sue had
nobly assumed the responsibility, and
Hope had helped her.
The patient had been in an uncon
scious state ever since the frightful blow
npon tbe head which had almost cost
him bis life.
It was noon. Mrs Lesley had gone out
with some completed sewing, and Hope,
her small fingers busily Hitting over a
long white seam, sat by the patient’s
bedside’.
Suddenly she looked np to find the old
man’s eyes fixed with a conscious gsza
npon her face.
She was a wise little girl, and obeyed
orders too Implicitly to betray any sur
prise.
'‘Where am 1? What is the matter
with me?”
As he spoke he endeavored to lift his
hand to his head, but it feil back help
less.
“You are here in our room and yon are
very siek,” Hope answered. ' But you
arc going to get batter, tbe doctor r ays.”
‘ S ci—what has happened? ALI I re-
member.”
“You were knocked down by a runa
way horse light in front of cur door. But
you mustn’t talk; it wiii hurt you.”
“And who are you? I never taw you
before,” the old man said, looking curi
ously at tbe fair face with its halo of
abort, fiuify golden tings.
Here ittie Hope’s discretion failed her.
Her childish reasoning told her that this
cold-hearted man ought to know what
her mother had done for him who had
been so hard to her.
“O j, yrs, you have seen ce before, sir.
I am Hope Lesley. Tue reas >r> you don't
know me ts my hair. I sold ii so we
could buy you medicine. Mamma cried
aw.’ully, but we couldn’t get enough
money right at once any other way.”
The sick man knew her at last, and
also real zoo tbe circumstances—that the
woman whom he bad nearly turned out
of deers had taken him in and cared fer
him, at d saved him fiom ceath.
Be closed his eyes, and little Hope,
tfcinkig he was tued and going to sleep,
lowered the shade, p-tt.ed and smoothed
the bed clothes, and then, leaning over j
him she laid her soft, cool band for one
instant upon his brow.
“Never mind, poor man, you are sick
now j but you are not g. ing to die, for the
doctor says Bo.”
But Hugh Warren did not sleep. Ashe
lay theie, watching through his half-
closed lids the swe.t child Lee near him,
thoughts at d memories, lot g strangers,
filled h:s mind—the u^hts of the mother
whom he had meurned with a strong
grief, and then the little sisttr she had
left to his love and care. Ah, how h«
had 'oved her! And sbe, too, had been
stricken down by death’s ruthless hand.
Had she lived he might have been a dif
ferent man. But the years bad roiled on,
and each one had added to the bitterness
and rebellion in his heart.
Of course, as Mr. Warren had regained
his conscious net b, there was no longer
any trouble aa regarded money; but it
was many weeks before he could be re-
moved from the humble room that had
been his shelter.
When he went Hope went with him.
Tbe struggle between jealous affection
and a sense of what was best for her
cblld had been a fierce one In the moth
er’s heart. Bnt In the end Mr. Warren’s
arguments had prevailed.
“1 have no child,” be said. ‘ I have
grown to love your little girl—to worship
her. I listen lor her tread—1 long lor tho
touch of har soft fingers on my crow. I
am vety rich, and I have no relative in
all the world. Would it be right tor you
to sacrifice your child's future by saying
•No’ to my proposal? I will tove her,
care for her, col cate Ctr, and lavish upon
her every good thing thin world can oner.
Yon need not be separated from her; you
can live with her or near her, at d be as
independent of me as you chcose. Con
sider well. It rests with you;’ and wbat
mother with her child’s welfare at heart
ccu’.d have answered in any way but the
affirmative?
Bight - years have passed, ana Hope Les
ley’s golden curls arc colled in a grac ful
knot at the back of her shapely head, for
she is a woman now.
It Is the night of her eighteenth birth -
day, she stands by her adopted father’s
side at the head of the salon of their
magnificent home to receive the guests
who have gathered together to do her
honour. Near by, her mother, with her
gentle faoe no longer sad, but radiant
with nride and happiness, leans npon
the arm of a tall, oiitingulshed looking
man whom she calls “husband.’
As we watch Hope we see a slight
flash rise to her pure forehead while sbe
Impulsively makee a step forward. Com
ing toward her, making his way through
the throng, is a yonng man with a face
whoee lineament bespeaks manllneee
and nobility of character. The eyee of
tho maiden and youth meet, and—at! It
is easy to read. The sweet, flashed foce,
the eeger, admiring, deferential gszs,
mean bnt one thing. Hope’a romance
has began.—Toronto MalL

A DANGEROUS BEAST.
Lucid Chemical Explanation of
What is Called Alcohol.
That alcohol was tho result of fermen
tation, had been observed of old, bnt
how It resulted was the mystery, only of
late (within the last fifteen years) fully
cleared np. It Is now known that what
we coll fermentation Is caused by tho
sudden increase, by millions on millions,
of a little animal cell, or microbe, only
visible under the microscope, and which
nsed te be called the yeast plant, bat
which is now dignified by the scientific
name of Torvnla cerevlsiu-, which is
Latin for the strings or twists that ap
pear in cereal ferments; that is, those
made from corn or grain, the gifts of the
old goddess Ceres.
This little fellow is one of the most
wonderful and If rightly used, one of the
most nsefnl inhabitants of our globe.
He is not a plant, as wss at first be
lieved, for he feede only on a vegetable
substance, viz: grape or fruit sugar,
called in chemistry glucose; and he, In no
doing, gives off carbonic acid, gas, and an
excrement whleh is a substance wholly
devitalized by tho living process of the
little animal, much aa ashes result from
the burning of coal In a stove. These
breathings and excretions only result
from animal life, and in every way this
microbe assimilates hie sugar food-pro-
page tee, breathes, excretes and lives like
an animal; and, when dead and cremat
ed, smells Just like horning animal tis
sue. Now, this excretion of this fruit
angar-eating animal is alcohol.
All of the alcohol of the world oomes
from this animal In just this way, and in
no other. It is always the same In sab-
stance. and has always the earns proper
ties—last as salt Is always salt.
These little microbes, or yeast animals,
are in the air, and pretty much every
where. They dry np and seem to bo
dead, and float about, bnt as soon as
e or fruit sugar (glucose) is exposed,
are there, and the rate of their ln-
„raH*e In It is marvelous. He la the
father of onr bread as well as our wine.
We know him beet ns the active agent In
the yesst cake, whence oomes the nsefnl
fermentation which lightens onr bread
previous to baking.
A penny yesst cake, dry as a chip, con
tains at least 7,000.000 of these animals.
Pat him In warm dough and In an bonr
he will count over 150,000.000; and this
Increase and his min ate carbonic acid
gas breaths, will have made the dough
throughout as light as a feather, and
ready for the oven. There the heat vola
tilizes the alcohol, which he excreted in
the dough, and the result is we have
>ight and healthy, instead of heavy, un
leavened, ind’gestlble bread—but free
from alcohol.
In fermented liquors, like wine and
eider, the amount of alcohol is not above
15 per cent, while in brandy and distilled
liquors it is about 50 per cent. But why
only 15 per cent.? The reason is, a.cobol
is so deadly a poison to all liviug animal
cells and ilEsnes, that when it reaches 15
percent, in a fermenting liquid it kills
the yeast ai.imal wnich excretes it, and
the fermentation stops.
Now, jast what alcohol does to the
cell which produced it, it does to all ani
mal cells and tissues; it is d ath to them
to the extent used. No living thing .can
live in alcohol an instant. The human
fystem is large and tough, and will en
dure a great deal, but a small dose of
pure alcohol—only half an ounce—is im
mediate death, it falls the strongest
man as though struck with a stone, and
for much the same reason, as we shall
see, it causes a shock which is an expio
sion of the nervous systera-
But, you esv, people do take alcohol
constantly. Yes, but only in drams,
largely diluted with water, so that fifteen
to twenty per cent, is the highest rate of
arcohol.
Wniskcy and trandy are diluted, gen
erally, more than half. If taken pure
the quantity is small and seldom taken,
or it, soon means delirium and death.
When, therefore, it is so well and so gen
erally understood that alcohol is a poison
that Is sure to wreck both body and soul,
why go auy risk in its use? It is not a
food; it is not even a luxury to the nor
mal appetite, and as sure as we beget an
artificial appetite f. r It, so sure are we
that it has made us its victim to destroy
us.—Medical Advance.

TEU ME OF HEAVEN.
I gaze far far into the dome of night,
And fain would pierce tue blue star-sprinkled
veil,
At d know what lies beyond that spectre pale
That shuts the heavenly glories from our sight!
Can there be fields, wide-spreading, rich with
blow
Of flowers kisssed to life by breezes sweet?
Are there white shores where crystal wa ers
meet?
Are there cool streams where snowy lilies grow?
Can there he sweet-voiced birds with plumage
gay,
Building their nests in lote trees, whose
bright llowers
Hide in each leave a living soul? and bowers
Whose fragrance is the breath of heaven's day?
Cau there be purple mountains reaching far
Iuto the snowy, gilded c.ouas that lie
iu ba ,ks of fleecy white ou azure sky?
On! tel: me, if you ean, pale, glimmering star!
Oh! tell me of my darling! Will we stand
Together, luce to face, and feel and kuow
Eiuh o her s nearntss? Will 1 hear the low,
Sweet voice of her I love in that bright land?
Will 1 know her hand clasp warm and true,
And hold her close'.y to my heart my sweet?
And feel her own to mine responsive beat,
And s-e the love-lignt iu her eyes so blue?
Oh! dearest, in your glorious borne afar,
Look down and see my gioom, my miseiy—
My lonely, desolate heart that yearns for thee,
Anu tell me, darling, where and wbat you are?

Ajjes of 3Iaii aud Wife.
It is always better for a man to bo se
veral years tbe senior of his wife. And
I’ll tell you why. The average girl who
marries—Gcff bless her—3tsys at home,
and makes a home a blissful abiding
place for her husband and her children.
Tbe man goes out into the world and has
the responsibility of caring forthose who
are at home; and yet time does not seem
to set its seal on him as it does on a wo
man. Tfce little cares of life rufflj her,
and too often make her look, as we say,
“old before her tune.” Now, even when
this does not happen, she does propor
tionately grow o.d In appearance sooner
than a man, and tor that reason she
wants to take the benefit of the donbt
and let him have the added years to start
with. Then, too, you should desire to
keep yeur heart and mind young; to be
his intellectual companion, and this is
much easier when yoor husband is old
enough to be “the guide, philosopher and
friend.” The love of a woman to her
husband always has a little of the mater
nal in it—that is right and tender—but
she does not wish to be mistaken for his
mother.
Be wise and marry a man older than

should be well thought over.—Ruth Ash

Pay Your Debts.
Payyonr debts—especially your little
debts—at this season. This is the way
you will do good, and do your duty at
the same time. Many persons are very
thoughtless in this regard. If you owe
ten cents or a dollar to your washer
woman, to the seamstress or laborer, to
the butler or the butcher, to the carter,
mechanic or the storekeeper, pay it now.
You have no idea how many people
suffer from yonr neglect in this matter—
that is in your failure to pay your “little
debts.” The one dollar debt you cancel
will pay a hundred others! Think of it.;
By withholding your dollar yonfoicea

not studied German.) “If, for Instance,”

you must say, ‘The moon to see,’ because
if iha moon wove not there first you

BELLES OF THE BIBLE.
Much tlie Same Style of Dress In
Solomon’s Time as Now.
It is an interesting fact end to a great
extent true that the style of dress and
ornaments of the ladles of the present
day is much the same as in the time of
Solomon. With the ma <y changes of
centuries, the gradation of chignons and
crinolines, mnch of the simple grace and
easy symmetry of ancient Greece has
taken their piece in the Nineteenthcen-
tn The Scriptures narrate a great msny
things about the style of dress wornln
the time of Solomon. In the law of Moses
directions are given concerning the gar
ments worn by the Israelites, la ite
book of Judges tbe girls of that period
are described by Deborah as s prey of
divers of needlework.” ,
Lemuel says, ‘‘Their clothing is cf silk
ana purple.”
In tho frequent intercourse between
the Jewish and other natives the isd es,
tired of their primitive simplicity,
sought the fashions of the clever iSgypt
Ians, the elegant Phoenicians and the
luxurious Persians. Even the patient
Job became impatient at so much dress
ing and thought of the adorn meat of tho
person, and Isaiah denounces the “wo
men of the period,” living for nothing
bnt dress and flirtation, with their great
desire to “see and be seen.”
The tunic spoken of in the time of
King Solomon wss very much like the
polonaise of the present time. The belts
and fancy girdles and clasps and buckles
are the same thing as the leather 8i?dies
and sliver buckles worn in the Biole
times. We also find recorded the fact
that the trains were worn to dresses, and
that camels’ hair shawls were oommon
among the ladies of that age. Embroid
ered mantles are also mentioned, and
they were fastened with gold pins. The
hair must have been quite elaborately
dressed to judge from BiDie descriptions,
and many ornaments were worn, ft was
oiled, dyed and pat up in coils. Little
curls were allowed to hang loose over
the forehead, and a'-range as it sounds
the yonng ladies of Solomon’s time used
paint to make their cheeks red.
Veils were worn, and the sandals were
made of blue and violet colored leather
with farcy lookets.
Solomon, it 1b related, said to Shu-
lamitt: “How beautiful are thy feet
with shoes, O, prince's daughters!” Thin
nets were worn andearrirgs of great
value were commonly used. Bracelets
were worn npon the right arm instead of
tho left, strings of pearls and heavy
gold ci sins around tic neck, rings on
the fingers and other ornaments were
fashionable. There are many belies
spoken of I y women in the Bible, and
the Listcry of some of their love stories
are very touching.
The beauty of the women of that time
is often mentioned, and life must have
been much as it Is now among the young
people, if you will examine tne Script
me to find anything used ut the present
day whici. is a till called by the old timed
names, you will almost Invariably find
tbe same article mentioned somewhere
in the Bible There Is indeed little that
is new under the sun.St. Louis Post

read cat, are easily discovered. Huge
trees in the vicinity of the cut were lopp
ed off by shell and cannon balls during
the fight, and the stumps still s:and as
mute witnesses of the fierce conflict tbat
waged there twenty eight yeaTS ago. The
old and historic stone house and the
Warrenton turnpike near Young’s branch
still stand, and the stene bridge over
Ball Run has been repaired.—interview

of my MEDICAL DISCOVERY. I know how it
makes you feel, hut It's all right. There are
certain cases where the DISCOVERY takes bold
sharp, hat it is the diseased spot in yon it has
taken hold of, and that’s what you want. The
DISCOVERY has a search warrant for every
humor, from backache to scrofula, Inside and
outside, and oi coarse it makes a disturbance
in yonr poor body, but the fight Is short yon

SHE HELPS HER FATHER.
A quaint business partnership is that
of a couple who seek work in the streets
of New Orleans—an old, decrepit father,
bent with age and rheumatism, and a
young, flaxen-haired, buxom, red-cheek
ed daughter, says the Illustrated Ameri
can. They saw and split wood, going
from door to door in search or employ
ment. When a job is obtained the girl
carries the wood in, splits and plies,
while the old man does tne sawing. The
regular manner in whioh the wood is
piled and the well-swept shed are as sure
to keep custom as is the merry laugh and
that or the girl, as she makes the weary
old man forget his labor and rail to dis
cover that the bniden has foilen on
yonng shoulders. He will tell you with
a proud smile: “She is my daughter, and
just along to help me a little.”
Spavin Liniment removes ;al
hardTsoft or calloused lamps and blem
ishes from horses. Warranted the most
wonderful blemish cure ever known. Sold
by all druggists.
It is only with the mouth open that snor

From the remotest times men saluted
