dele, Oct. 3.—Rev. C. M. Ledbetter, of
Clarkesville, has delivered two very en¬
tertaining lectures at the opera house

the subject of his lecture Tqesday night,

amusing, entertaining and instructive.
Those who did not go to hear him miss¬

$ RL0A$T0D THOUGHTS.
(5^ •+- OLA JONES.- ■*+•-- £ '"a)
The noted author of “The Story of an
African Farm,” Olive Sehreiner, at her
marriage, insisted upon her
taking her name, and so she is now
called Mrs.Cron Wright Schreiner. She
is sa‘d tq. be a tiny, elf-like creature
with brilliant eyes, and to be very con-
tent and happy upon iier South African
farm; so much so, in fact, that she does
not care to share her life with the pub-
lie by means of new books.
Her most noted book, “The African
Farm,” was written when she was only
17 years of age. About her works there
is a charm as difficult of analysis and
as evasive as the fragrance of a violet,
and the hasty or careless reader never
discovers it; but to one who appreci¬
ates subtle philosophy, d licate poetry
(for her prose is poetic) and a style al¬
most classic in its simplicity, they are
perfectly fascinating. 1 will quote one
of the shortest of her “Dreams,” (from
her book by that name).for.the benefit
of readers unfamiliar with ibis author
.
The Gardens of Pleasure.
“She walked upon the beds, and the
sweet rlgh scent arose : and she gath¬
ered her hands full of flowers. Then
Duty, with his white clear features,
came and looked at her. Then she
ceased from gathering, but she walked
a Way among the flowers, smiling, with
her hands full.
“Then Duty, with his still white,/ace,
came again, and looked at her; but she,
she turned her head away from him.
At last she saw his face, and slw drop¬
ped the fairest walked of the flowers she had
held, arid silently away.
“Then again he came to her. And
she moaned, and bent her head low, and
turned to the gate. But as she went
out she looked back at the,s.un{ight on
the faces of the flowers, and wept in
anguish. Then she went out, and it
shut behind her forever; but still in
her hand she held of the buds she had
gathered, and the scent was very sweet
in the iQnely desert.
“But lie followed her. Once more he
?fQbd before her with his Still, white,
death-like face. And she .knew w r hat
he had ^ ome for : sbe unb ? nt ber fin ‘
f rs - *"<» '« «.e flowers drop out the
flowers she had loved s«, and walked on
without them, with dry, aching eyes,
Then fp . for the last time he came. And
s pa. §howed Wm herempty hands, the
hands that held nothing now. But still
ke looked. Then at length she opened
p er bosom and took out of it one small
flower she had hidden there, and laid it
on the sand. She had nothing more to
'
give now, and she wandered away, and
the gray sand whirled about her.”
We Cannot rbid that sweet and
P' e little allegory without hearing the
simple but life-fraught words of Jesus
as He said : “If any man will come af-
ter Me, let him deny himself, and take
up his cross daily and follow Me” and
the words to the cultured, good and
■ rich young man who came running to
the Master with tile question : “What
shall I do to be saved?” “Yet lackest
j thou one riling—-sell all that thou hast,
give to the poor—come, follow Me.”
| The young man could not give up his
ia,st flower as Duty, demanded, and turn-
e( j away sorrowful, and we do not know
that the white, patient face of Jesus
ever looked upon him again. Itislike-
ly that He did not, because He knew
tbat the inquirer bad made a deliberate
choice between salvation and his great
riches to which he held.
A fcw peoplei J£ of their poS!ition ,
aV e had the good sense to diminish
the number of courses at their formal
I dinners, and ag this sensible step will
probably be the means of dubbing the
senseless and tiresome, overfeeding of
gnests as “bad form,” which generally
means “vulgar,” we may hope that the
■ dinner of endless courses is soon to bt-
come a thing of the past. Each of these
courses, of course, consists of small
quantity, but long before all of them
are finished the appetite has become
satiated, and “genteel stuffing” becomes

In a story I read recently, I
was struck with the following descrip¬
tion of an old room,in a European.ca¬
thedral wall: “It smelled like a church.
There was a heavy odor of incense eve-
rywhefi?, add that peculiar atmosphere
which inhabits old churches, like selfish
prayers that have been too earthly to
ascend to heaven.” I have often won-
dered if God ever listens t,o selfish pray¬
ers, and by selfish I do not mean those
in which the story of one’s natural
weakness and of pleadings for guidance
and strength is poured into the 'ear of
the all-loving and omnipotent Father,
but rather the prayers of “wolfish
worldlings,” whose only desire is to
have what he wants, and to do what he
pleases. Doubtless many churches and
many homes afe impregnated with just
such prayers, because from their very
nature.they could not reach to the lov¬
ing Intercessor, who never sought His
own in anything.

After Waterloo Ney was sentenced
to die the death of a traitor. On hear-

die a soldier’s death, that he be not shot

command the squad who were to exe-
