6 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 in Century. To Our Patrtms. After this week we will collect all bills for job work weekly. This will make payments easier for you, and help us materially, as our expenses are payable weekly.

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 for Infants and Children. • <a.torlalf iowcl). * ■ JchiMrcrwat It .mniendIta,«upc* JyAf ijpreacri^Ion k&wntome.” H. A. JJObxa, H. D.. 111 So.

There is no sweeter charity in qll Eng land than the Robins’ tieat which a 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 New Year’s eve, the finunce committee placed St. Oeorge's hall at the disposal of Mrs. Birt and her 6,000 Robins. The treat was all that could have been de nied, and not ono birdling was permit ted to escape until he was too jolly ."ell to eat another crumb.—London Lettei 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.

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- Women In the Dank of France.
