Oft, dear love, when the evening shadows Fall, like sleep, on the face of day, Come to me, o’er the peacefill meadows, Gleams and dreams of the sweet far away; And fondly the heart, with a forewell token. Dream-kissed here in the twilight gray, Speaks again, with its vows unbroken, The words of love that it used to say. Words of lovel and the heart grows lighter, Words of love! and to live is dear, Words of love! and the earth grows brighter, Words of love! and heaven is near, Words of love! and the future’s fleeter, Words of love! and adieu to care, Words of love and life grows sweeter, Sweeter still for the days that were! So, dear love, when the far light’s stream ing In through the windows of the past, I see, Here alone ’neath the star light’s gleam ing, The hallowed days that used to be; And sacred the scenes and the joyous seeming, Fancy fraught as they come to the, Silently sitting, sweetly dreaming, Heaven-blest with the thoughts of thee. The almost constant downpour of rain interfered very materially with the gaieties which bad been planned for the past week, and many charming affairs were necessarily postponed un til brighter days should dawn. ' How ever, these later days, these same charming affairs are considered of rather secondary importance since s> many of our ladies and gentlemen are occupying the greater part of their time in efforts to secure aid and com fort for the sick and wounded heroes of our nation. Conspicious among these are Mrs,.De Forest Allgood, Mrs. Julia Pritchard, tbs Misses Brawner, Oapt. Dews, and Col. Geo. I. Jones. Mrs. Allgiod is particularly energetic in her patriotism. Ordinearily Mrs. Allgood spends her summers at some delightful retreat, but in these times of war, when sick men need nursing, she has let go fashion to devote her self to the noble work which she and her associates have in hand. Mrs. Pritchard and the Misses Brawner ere capital lieutenants to Mrs. Allgood and are one with her in her every undertaking. Cspt. Dews and Col. Jones are doing their best and there are scores of other men and women, some closely and remotely connected with what is known as the smart set, who are paying far more attention to measures of relief than to measures of biversion. It is an excellent thing for America that the most of our women are of Mrs. Allgood’s type. * • * The Dorcas Society held a business meeting at the home of Mrs. Thomas Mills last Monday afternoon. • • • Mrs. James M. Brawner was the pleasant hostess at a pretty affair on Tuesday afternoon, given in honor of the Mystic Circle. Mrs. Brawner has one of the loveliest homes in the city, and she, herself, is a woman, possess ing a charming personality. She has a wealth of soft, snowy hair, the bright est of brown eyes that glow with un usual intelligence, and a rare sweet ness of manner that has won for her so many friends. On Tuesday after noon, despite the torrents of rain which fell unceasingly, the Brawner home was a beautiful picture—there were exquisite cut flowers of every description, and the soft glow of in numerable waxen tapers drove away every vestige of the murky shadows which seemed determined to come in from the gloomy outside world. The affair was distindy a literary one, and the animated discussion of Oliver Wendell Holmes and the word contest which followed, were very bright and interesting Mrs. Thomas J. Collier won the prize—a lovely wedgewood pitcher. At six and a half o’clock, elegant refreshments were served by Miss Brawner and Mies Bessie Clark Brawner About fifteen of our ynuuger set left Tuesday morning for Li'sey Springs, where a week will be spent, no doubt most delightfully. Those who composed the party were: Miss Kimbrough and guest, Miss Pitner, of Athens, Miss Evelyn Refd, Miss Minnie Brown Reeves, Miss Markham, of Columbus, Miss Gassie Flemister, Miss McCombs, of Milledge ville, Mr. George Barrow, Mr. Edgar New ton, Mr. Robert Strickland, Mr. Will Sla ton, Mr. James Nutt, Mr. Eugene Blood worth, Mr. Cosby Sawtell, with Mrs. Hen ry Burr, Jr., and Miss Theo Burr as chap erones. • • e The Nine O’clock German club gave a very pleasant dance al the pretty I club room, last Monday evening in honor of the visiting young ladies. There was a charming crowd in at tendance, the music was excellent,and the evening prove to be one of much enjoyment for all present • • * -s„•>»■ Miss Rebecca Ruan, of Macon, who for several weeks baa been the charm ing gueel of the Mi**ee Nall, will leave tomorrow Marietta, where she will re main lor a fortnight. Mies Ruan baa had much delightful attention shown her during her stay in Griffin. • • • The Mystic Circle will meet with Mrs. Henry C. Burr on Tuesday after noon of next week. • • • The Misses Brawner have as their guest Miss Martha Wheatley, of Co lumbus. Miss Wheatley is a beautiful girl, very bright and attractive, and is one of Griffin’s most popular visitors. • • • Mrs. Markham, one of Columbus’ handsomest matrons, arrived in the city Friday and is now the guest of Mis. Claire Deane. • • • Miss Lillie Rivers entertained a number of friends at a beautiful affair on Tuesday evening. The lovely home of Mr. J. D. Rivers was brilliantly lighted and artistically decorated for this occasion and the evening was a very delightful one for all preeen tMiss Rivers was pretty apd attractive in a dainty frock of white organdie and en tertained her guests in a charming manner. A merry word game was a pleasant feature of the evening. Miss Lizzie Wilson and Master Jack Brooks won the prizes—a silver nail file and paper cutter. At a late hour delicious cream and cakes were served. * ♦ * Miss Ella Carlisle, after an extended visit to her brothers, Messrs. Ernest and Holston Carlisle, left yesterday for her home at Roanoke, Ala. Mias Carlisle is a beautiful girl of the bru nette type of beauty, and dresses with the most exquisite taste. During her stay in Griffin Miss Carlisle made friends innumerable, and received the most charming attention. . • * * Miss Florrie Jean Richards is enjoy ing a lovely visit to Gainesville, as the guest of Mrs. Fletcher Johnson. Miss Richards is one of our most interest ing and attractive girls, and wherever she goes is always very popular. *-♦ * Mrs- Albert Randall entertained a delightful circle of friends at a pretty tea on Monday evening in honor of her guest, Mies Anna Mooney. Beau tiful long stemmed LaFrance roses were used profuselF in the floral deco rations and the affair was as pretty as ’twaa elegant. Mrs. Randall, who is an ideal hostess, and Miss Mooney, who is a bright and very attractive young woman, made the evening a most delightful one for all present. « • « Mrs. Chloe Mitchell and her daugh ter, Miss Chatteen Mitchell, returned to their home in Atlanta yesterday. Mrs. Mitchell and Mies Mitchell *are both very charming women, and dur ing their stay in Griffin were shown many flattering attentions. Cautious Xxtven. Two cautious individuals have agreed to enter matrimony in Northampton, Mass., under very odd conditions. The investment filed in the Hampshire registry of deeds by them reads: “Marriage being intended between For dyce Whitmarsh of Easthampton and A. Minerva Cleveland of Plainfield, the fol lowing agreement was made July 8: All real and personal estate shall remain the separate property of the party owning the same to the same extent as before mar riage. Property acquired by either party shall remain the property of the person ac quiring the sama Each party can man age or dispose of his property without con sulting the other. “The said Whitmarsh will pay his wife during the first five years of their married life 50 cents per week, payable each week, for her personal use. Five years from the date of their marriage he will pay to his wife the sum of 9500, or in case of the death of either party it will be payable from or to the estate of the deceased. Aft er five years the husband is to pay his wife 91.50 per week.” His Tint Comuuuid. In a letter home Captain McGinley of Emporia, Kan., writes: “My first attempt at commanding was rather humiliating I resolved to take one command from the book and study till I learned it I pro cured a pass, went deep into the woods and rehearsed it I had it down pat I then went to the captains and had them explain what effect that command would have on the company. Each one took a stick and mapped out the movement on the ground until I understood it thor oughly. I repeated it to myself and felt proud and confident “Next morning at drill I assumed an attitude and while making a cigarette in a careless fashion issued the oomman A The company ran overtne, and as they are taught to keep on going until told to halt the entire company walked on my grace ful presence before I could think of what came next I hope to learn, but I wish X had a company that was not so anxious to mind. ’’ _ Bra th.
