THE AMERICES DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: FRIDAY. JULl 17, i»9l.
LOVELY FEMININE EDITORS.
Itawaty and Talent Charmingly Combined
In Convention in Atlanta.
Prom all parts of Georgia there arrived
In Atlanta Monday ladies who have done
much to mold the opinions and shape
the actions of this state in their journal
istic work. Some are charming, cultured
matrons, many are fresh from the halls
of learning, young and enthusiastic. And
there is a certain tone to the papers they
represent that reflects honor upon them.
The president, who originated this club,
is Mrs. Byington. She is of medium
height, and has a complexion whose fair
ness is unrivaled. She has many charms
of person and manner that I know my
pen could never depict, so I will not
make an attempt; but to my mind her
chief attractions after her clear musical
voice and charming conversation are the
merry twinkle in her soft brown eyes
and the smile lurking round the corners
of her mouth. She has made a most en
ergetic and efficient president, and is
Well known as the editor of the Colum
bus Leader.
Miss Minnie Quinn is a lovely petit*
brunette. Her sparkling black eyes, black
silken hair, rosy lips and rich complexion,
combined with her subdued, winning
manner render. Miss Quinn as attractive
as her dainty verse.
Miss Dortch is making for herself a
name on the Camcsville Tribune. She
Is but lrcently from college, and has th<5
delightful air of the pensive student com
bined with the vigor and energy of a
journalist. The blush of the peach is in
her cheeks aud the violet’s lovely hue in
her eyes. She is a graceful writer.
Miss McCntchen is at the helm of the
r'ranklm News. She can write editori
als and, it necessary, set them up in
type. In conversation she is bright and
sparkling, and increased expression is
given by the humorous eyes.
Mrs. Ohl is well known as “Mando
Andrews," of The Constitution. She k
a beautiful woman, aud in conversation
is wondrouslv magnetic and has a most
niagnaniinous nature.
Mrs. Harry Brown represents the oft
quoted Alliance Farmer. She can write
a stirring article and win you by its
logic and grace, and her beautiful lan<
guage in conversation has the same ef
fect
The Atlanta Journal's representative is
Miss Corienne Stokes. She is as spark
ling as her articles, and is one of the
coming Georgia journalists.
Mrs. Myriek represents the cultured
city of Americus and The Times-Re
corder. She is a charming writer, a
charming talker and a charming listener.
Her ennning smile brightens the whole
club.
Mrs. Williams is a gewfle, brown eyed
lady, with a manner dignified and grace
ful. She is winning new laurels in her
success on Society, Atlanta’s new paper.
Mrs. Wyley, her co-worker on this pop
ular paper, is too well known to justify
description. Her sweet poems have
thrilled many hearts, and her journal
istic work has been varied aud thorough.
Miss Bealer combines literary work
with teaching, and in both excels. She
is a popular member of the club.
When such a group of charming Indies,
so cultured and lovely, met at the Kim
ball a delightful social union was the
hatnral outcome.—Atlanta Cor. Athens
(Ga.) Ledger.
At Mme. Beciunler’s.
The salon of Mme. Recamier was
not in any sense philosophical or polit
ical, but after the cruel persecution of
La Harpe, the banishment of Mme. de
Stael, and the similar misfortunes of
other friends, her sympathies were too
strong for her diplomacy, and it grad-
ujdly fell into the ranks of the opposi
tion. It w;is well known that the em
peror regarded all who went there as his
enemies, and this young and innocent
\rt>man was destined to feel the full bit
terness of his petty displeasure.
We cannot trace here the incidents of
her varied career, the misfortunes of the
father to whom she was a ministering
angel, the loss of her husband’s fortune
and her own, the years of wandering
and exile, the second period of brief and
illusive prosperity, and the swift reverses
which led to her final retreat She was
at the height of her fame in the early
days of the Restoration, when her salon
rerived its old brilliancy, and was a
center in which all parties met on neutral
ground. Her intimate relations with
those in power gave it a strong j»olitical
influence, but this was never a marked
feature, as it was mainly personal.
But the position in which one is most
Inclined to recall Mme. Recamier is in
the convent of Abbaye-aux-B«»is, where,
divested of fortune and living in the
simplest manner, she preserved for nearly
thirty years the fading traditions of the
old salons. Through all the changes
which tried her fortitude and revealed
the latent heroism of her character, she
seems to have kept her sweet sereuity
unbroken, bending to tho passing storms
with the grace of a facile nature, but
never murmuring at the ineri table. One
may find in this inflexible strength and
gentleness of temper a clew to tho subtle
fascination which held the devoted
friendship of sd many gifted men and
wemen long after the fresh charm of
youth was gone.—Amelia Gere Mason

The Secret of HU Wealth.
A millionaire said “the secret of his
wealth” is in the word, S-A-V-E; and
the secret of my wealth is in the word,
S-A-G-E. By tnis last he meant Dr.
Sage, whose Catarrh Remedy cured him
of one of the wort cases of Catarrh, and
and thereby saved him from much suf
fering and premature death, enabling
him to make his millions, and enjoy life.
The cures made by this medicine are
simply wonderful

There is no sweeter charity in qll Eng

Mrs. Louisa Birt, of Liverpool, provides
semi-annually for 6,000 of the ]mores-
little children she can find. A month in
advance of the treat agents are sent intc
all the dark courts, alleyways and back
streets Qf Liverpool with invitations for
the Robins. Absolutely no questions are
asked, the messenger seeing with half
an eye whether the dwellers deserve
cards or not At the last treat, served

placed St. Oeorge's hall at the disposal
of Mrs. Birt and her 6,000 Robins. The

Behavior at Table.
Keep your mouth closed when eating.
Never play with food, nor mince your
bread, nor handle your knife and fork or
the glass or silver near you unnecessar
ily. If a fishbone, etc., should inad
vertently get into the mouth, the lips
must be covered with the napkin while
removing it Never pick your teeth at
the table. Do not put largo pieces of
food in your month; if you are addressed
when your mouth is so filled, you are
obliged to pause before answering until
the vast mouthful is masticated, or run
the risk of choking by swallowing it too
hastily. To eat very fast is a mark of
greediness, and should be avoided.
Never soak up gravy with bread or
scrape your plate. . Never, if possible,
cough or sneeze at the table. Do not
lean back in your chair.
The hostess or host should not insist
upon guests partaking of particular
dishes, nor ask persons more than ouce,
nor pnt anything on their plates which
they have declined. It is ill bred to urge
a person to eat anything after he has de
clined. A half ladleful of soup is enough
to serve, unless it is a country dinner,
where a full ladleful may bo given; but
do not fill the soup plate. Avoid the

Properties of Aluminum.
Beforo dealing with the many proc
esses now in the field for the cheap pro
duction of aluminum, wo may briefly
glance at the properties and special char
acteristics of the metal nnder considera
tion. Aluminum has a white silver like
appearance,is both malleablo and ductile,
and from its sonorous properties is macb
used in the manufacture of bells. An
exceedingly important feature is its
lightness, a property which fnvors its
employment for many special purposes.
Aluminum has a specific gravity of only
2.56—that is, is two and a half times as
heavy ns water, and is four times lighter
than silver.
Heat and electricity are conducted by
aluminum os well ns by silver, while it
does not oxidixa in air oven ut red heat,
has no action on water at ordinary tern
perature, and preserves its luster whero
silver would tarnish, being thus specially
remarkable as the lightest metal capable
of resisting the action of air even in the
presence of moisture.—Chambers' Jour-

with the Ball corset: if you
want ease and shapeliness,
you buy it—but you don’t

After two or three weeks’

Comfort isn’t all of It
