CEDARTOWN STANDARD. DEVOTED TO THE BEST INTERESTS OF CEDARTOWN AND POLK COUNTY. VOLUME CEDARTOWN, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING. AUGUST 29,1901. NUMBER 29. An Qid Pastor, woman s world. Rev. James Poindexter, Columbus, O. No man in the capital city of the State of Ohio is better known than the Rev. James Poindexter. For many years he has been the successful pastor of the Second Baptist Church of that city. Every day his venerable figure and kindly face may be seen on the streets of thecity where he has labored for so many years. What a history of benev* olenco and self-sacrifice might be writ* ten by simply giving the details of the every-day life of this faithful pastor and eloquont preacher. But old ago comes to the best of men, The rheumatics peculiar to advanced age had already begun its insidious rav ages when it became necessary to find a remedy,if possible, that his days of use fulness might not be shortened. An efficient nerve tonic that would stimulate the circulation, improve the digestion, and increase the tono and vigor of liis whole system, was needed. The only remedy capable of meeting all these indications was found to be Pa nina. In a recent letter to Dr. Hartman, he states: “My attention was called some time ago to your medicino for rheumatia troubles by Mr. Cook, an old reliable druggist of this city, and take pleasure in 6aying that I lmvo tried them and found them good. It is my opinion that the remedy, Peruna, is Justly entitled to the fame which it has throughout the United States.” Address The Peruna Medicine Co^ Columbus, O., for freo catarrh book. Miss Swagge/—“I don’t think Miss Warble ought to be permitted to sing iu our choir.” Mr. Basso—“Why, she has a lovely voice!” Miss Swagger—“That may be, but she’s wearing her last year’s hat trimmed over.” ECZEMA’S ITOH IS TORTURE. Eczema is caused by an acid humor in the blood coming in contact with the skin and producing great redness and in flammation ; little pustular eruptions form and discharge a thin, sticky fluid, which dries and scales off; sometimes the skin is hard, dry and fissured. Eczema in any form is a tormenting, stubborn disease, and the itching and burning at times are almost unbearablethe acid burning humor seems to ooze out and set the skin on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter nal applications do any real good, for as long as the poison remains in the blood it will keep the skin irritated. BAD FORM OF TETTER• ‘•For three years I ful. and catiMng much diacoinfort. Four doctors aaid the Tetter bad progressed too far to be cured, and they could do nothing for me.

The Girl Who !■ “Out.” Between the girl that is “out” aud the girl that Is not “out” there is n great gulf fixed by, the unwritten laws of fashionable society. The latter la the grub and the former the butterfly. “It Is really amusing to see the change (which is, of course, purely conventional) that a year will brlug forth In a girl of 18.” remarked a man of the world recently. “About ft year ago I stopped at the Z.’s, la Oldport. After dinner, when tlw? uieu went into the dining room. I noticed n toll, at tractive looking young woman, gowned In a high tnusllu frock, whom 1 hud not seen nt dinner and to whom 1 wiya not Introduced. At first 1 thought she might be a governess or companion, ns she seemed entirely grown up. but upon Inquiry 1 was told she was the second daughter of the house, who was not ‘out.’ ‘But she may be spoken to? l queried, rather Interested in meeting a pretty, new species of womanhood. ‘Why, of course,’ laughed her relative, who had given me the Information. ‘I am sure she will think It very nice of you to notice her.’ Thereupon l went up to the young woman and tried to engage her In conversation. Well, 1 could hardly get a word or a look from the demure maiden. She replied to all my observations In monosyllables and seemed so painfully shy that I finally gave up the attempt aud left her to amuse herself with her work, which she had brought with her Into the drawing room. “During my visit, which lnsted n week. It was always the same. 1 met Maud, as they called her, frequently, but never seemed to make any head way and left ihe house with the Idea that she was either exceedingly stupid or hopelessly diffident. 80 you can im agine my astonishment whin this win ter nt a dance u brilliant looking young woman beckoned to me from a little distance. ‘You do not remember me, Mr. Smith,’ she cried laughingly when l had obeyed her summons. ‘Well, no wonder! But I remember you very well and how good you were to me last summer at Oldport.’ 1 stood petrified with astonishment. Was It possible that this vivacious young creature with the aplomb of a veteran society wom an was the shy, shrinking girl that I had tried to talk to In vain only eight months before? ‘But what a trnnsfor- inntloq!’ I exclaimed nt length. ‘How Is It possible that you could have so completely changed In so short a time? 1 ‘Why, you stupid man, I have “come out,”’ she returned, ‘and I shall expect you to be very nice to me. Will you?’ she added eoquettlshly. ‘But which Is your real self,’ I went on—‘the quiet little maid or the society girl of to night?’ ‘Ah, that is for you to find out!’ she answered and danced off with her partner.” IIow Minn Rankle Won Her Decree. Miss Bertha Runkle, the girl Author of “The Helmet of Navarre,” Is one of the literary personages of the day. The fact that Miss Runkle has scored a genuine success at the age of 22 is something worthy of more than ordi nary comment. Only the girl’s intimate friends believed in her youth, because her story showed such maturity of treatment and scholarship. The rend ing public laughed and said, “Walt un til she comes Into the public eye: then we shall see she is a much older wom an.” Miss Runkle came into the public eye In the early part of April by reading a paper on “Romanticism” before the Contemporary club of Philadelphia. She has been brought up in a book ish atmosphere. Her mother, Mrs. Runkle. has been for many years on the staff of one of the magazines and has supported the family, giving the boy a Harvard education and training the girl at Lome, or. rather, that was her plan, but Miss Runkle defeated part of it. She Is devoted to her brother, and when he went to Harvard the two en tered into a close alliance. It resulted In Miss Runkle’s graduating from Har vard without a degree. Her brother kept In touch with her every day and coached her all summer. Each morning she would receive the lecture as taken down by him. She had a duplicate of every book he had. She studied ns many hours n day as he did. She mailed him every night the result of her work, and he gave her the added benefit of his examinations. She went through each examination with him and passed without condition. During their senior year she studied harder than the young man himself, and the excitement In the Runkle household at the time of the final ex amination was Intense. Literary men and Harvard men were ns Interested in this unique way of Miss Runkle’s going through Harvard as she and her mother were. The brother had aroused all the interest and enthusiasm of the Harvard professors, ami when the final day came Miss Ber tha Runkle’s papers were examined, and it was found that she had passed with flying colors. She virtually won the Harvard degree.—Saturday Even ing Post. _ The President of the American Federation of Labor, Union 8,215, says: “lam using your Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin inyself and in my family, and find it does lots of good.

The Standard last week published an aocount of the finding of the dead body of Mr. Thomas S. Latham, a good citizen of Haralson county, in the Talla poosa river at Rowell’s bridge, in that oounty. He had been shot in the back by some one whose identity was then unknown, and his body was thrown into the river. It has since transpired that the deed was done by Bije Latham, a nephew of the deceased. Bije had left the house with his uncle in apparently the most friendly spirit, and after killing his uncle returned home and told his mother what he had done. The young has been unbalanced mentally for some time, and did not seem to realize what he had done. He was placed in jail at Buohanan, but has been adjudged insane and sent to tho asylum at Mil- ledgeville. TnE Standard was misinformed last week aB to Mr. Latham being tbe father of Col.

The Ladies’ Home Journal for Sep tember is the “Special Autumn Num ber” of that excellent magazine. In addition to an unusual number of inter eating stories and striking features, it devotes seven pages to a complete set ting forth of the styles-to-be in dresses, bodices, hats and wraps. The most im portant literary feature, perhaps, is the initial installment of “Miss Aloott’ Letters to Her ‘Laurie’ ’’—letters which have never before been printed. There is a delightful description of a day in the woods with Ernest Setfcon Thomp son, and a jolly recital of “The College Scrapes We Got Into,” by “A Gradu ate.” The fourth part of Miss Tomp kin’s “Aileen” brings that charming story near to its close, and Mr. Bok dis cusses the need for parental oo-opera- tion in education in his editorial on “The School Question Again.” “The New Wedding Stationary” is shown, also some of the photographs which won prizes in the Journal’s reoent rural contest.
