A Remarkable Woman.
Sho hasn't exactly a clear, brilliant mind;
She-doesn't exhibit acumen.
Her equal at logic It’s not hard to And,
ThlB very remarkable woman.
At whist she Is certainly apt to talk out
Whenever the trump Is elusive.
When winning she really Is tempted to
, . shout,
Her Joy It so full und effusive.
Bke spends all the money that times to
„ TTerTiariar
«Isr husband oft finds her coercive.
Of hotteehold economy, you understand.
She'fi dearly, distinctly subversive.
A paragon she to her husband seems,
though.
No quarrel Is ever fomented.
She never, no, never, says, "I told jrgu
so."
And so he Is deeply contented.
You never hear of the bank cashier
Who borrows a tlily stun
To dip In wheat or buck the street
And gather a private crumb.

It's evermore plain stilling for
The man who isn't caught.
The statesman who Is ever true i
make a deal
A bunch of coin to raise—
Unless, perchance, same circumstance
Threw him a shady prise—
If no one knows, do you suppose
He'll ever make them wise?
Tlio absence of slitrifl sale no
tices in the different papers shows
well for the slate.
The men are learning to go with
out their coats and women are learn

The barbeoue in Cordate ji eftevday
was as fine as you ever poked a fork whoVouldn't steSi P or n
into. And plenty ot other good
victuals and the Cordele people en-
• joyed giving their friends a good
time. There was plenty of free
lemonade and tree soda water and a
nice crowd was there to enjoy it.
