“We have not received an order
from vou for life of William U.
Crawford: The author was eight
years in writing this popular book
and you can get more of the ear¬
lv history of Georgia irom it than
any other book, There is a refer
ence to a public dinner given at
Oarnesyille, Ga, in 18115 to C raw'
ford at which James Ward re
sponded to the toast ('rawford’s
name will go down to remotest
posterity,,. (Page 200). Did Mr
Ward leave any children,
are they now in Carnesville?
Is there a*v old newspaper file
that gives an account of Craw¬
ford’s attendance at this dinner.
Jha above is taken from a let¬
ter recently received by Geo. L-
Goode from the American Book
company, publishers of a life of
William H. Crawford, a disting¬
uished statesman of the early part
of the last century and a native
Georgian. It will be remembered
that William II. Crawtora was
the American Ambassador to
France in the time of Napoleon,
and is said to be the only man to
whom Napoleon Bonaparte ever
bowed a second time. Mr. Goode
will appreciate any information

Women Who Do Things
Have Their i)av */
Now.
The eyes of the world are di„
rected at the women who
im* doing things. The exclusive
society woman, and she who has
only good looks to recommend
tier, are rapidly becoming a thing
of the past. We are living in an
intensely practicall age. So rap¬
idly are we living that all forces
are amalgamating, and evolving
a type of woman such as the
world has never seen before.
Sob is not a fledgling, nor a
merely pretty thing, but a wom„
an, of gracious tact and wide svm
pathv, who has lived down many
a bitter disappointment and crush
ed many a sorrow, but who is im -
bued with the optimistic spirit of
Young America; she knows that
in order to do her best, she must
look her b(st; she inspires old and
young with her youthful enthusi¬
asm; she is sincerely interested in
every humane question of the day,
thus unconsciously does she culti¬
vate those endearing qualities of
the heart, the daily exhibition of
which in the course of years
part^' an atmosphere of soft, sweet,
feminity, and gives to a woman
when she reaches middle lib* that
delightful subtle spirit we call
“charm”. This is perhaps what
the satirical Bernard Shaw meant
when he asserted that no woman
is possible until she has reached
h»r thirty-fifth year, and not
worth talking to until her forti¬
eth!—The Delineator for May.
