plea that the party is old and fee
hie. This sounds to me very much
as if they had said, “Well, let the
party have the pension, as they
are old and feeble, even if it is ll
legal » » Now, Mr. Grand Jury,
there are others in the county who
are old and feeble, at.d if you palm
off one such case on the state to
take care of, why not put others
on the state ligewise. I am in
favor of the county and state tak
ing care of the old and feeble, but
please do not put it upon the score
of a pensio.i for services performed
in the Civil War. which they did
not perform, but advance it to them
as a straight gift and not as a pen¬
sion sor services unperformed it is
an insult and injury to every vet
eran who did his duty in the Civil
War. The time, it seems, iscom
ing when the soldier who did his
duty in that war will be ashamed
to let it be known that he was in
that war and did his duty, lhere
is a widow living at Porterdale
whose husband was in the same
company with myself, and who
served three years, This widow
is old feeble and, like some of the
rest of us, poor in this world’s
goods. She has but one frail
daughter to make a living for her¬
self and mother. She works day
in and day out to make a living,
Frequently she has to quit her
work to attend her mother, who is
in very feeble healt h ; yet this poor
widow has to pay tax on her little
household goods to help pay the
pension of some man who drinks
it up, or some woman who gets a
pension illegally. Vet this widow
cannot get a pension just because
she was married after the war.
There are many such cases where
the young unmarried men went
into the war early, served four
years an,l vet because they were
not married until after the close of
the war their widows cannot share
in the pension fund when their
qusbands die. But here comes
along some fellow who was married
before the war and claims that he
served six months; cannot even
set any of his Company to sign his
papers; goes around and finds some
THE ENTERPRISE, COVINGTON GA
fellow who was not a member oi
Ins Company and cannot possibly
know whether he did any service
or not, to sign them and then goes
ahead and illegally draws bis
money, it is a misnomer to call it
a pension. \ou gentlemen of the
grand jury had better have passed
a resolution requesting our sena
tors and representatives to pass a
law allowing the widows of the
worthy soldiers who were not mar
ried until after the war a share in
the pension fund. Those who did
the least, or nothing at all in that
war, seem to be in the swim and
on top at this time.

WHY SILHOUETTE.
A Curious Bit of History Wrapp*4
Up in the Word.
The making of silhouettes can hard¬
ly be classed among the lost arts, since
there is so little art about them. The
best of them represent the human pro¬
file in a crude way, and they were re¬
garded as rather a cheap kind of pic¬
tures even in the days when they were
most popular. Indeed, the very word
silhouette means something poor and
cheap, and it had its origin in a spirit
of ridicule. It is taken from Etienne
de Silhouette, who was a French cab¬
inet minister in the year 175!). when
the treasury of France was very low
because of costly wars with Britain
and Prussia and by the extravagances
of the government. When Etienne de
Silhouette became minister of finance
he set about making great reforms in
the public expenditures, lie was by
nature a very “close” man, and he
went to Fjieta extremes in keeping
down the public expenses that he
brought great ridicule upon himself,
and finally anything that was cheap
and poor was referred to as a la Sil¬
houette.
A very crude picture was popular -at
that time. It was made by tracing the
shadow or profile of a face projected
by the light of a candle on a sheet of
white paper and the outline defined
with a pencil. This was such a very
poor and cheap sort of picture that
it was at once called a silhouette in
further derision of the very saving
French minister, and the name lias
“stuck.” It is an instance of the curi¬
ous derivation of some words in com¬
mon use, and this unkind slur on a
man who was really trying to intro¬
duce needed reforms in the spending
of the public money has long been ac
cepted as a good and proper word. In¬
deed. there is no other word used for
pictures of this kind, although there
wore such pictures long before M. Eti
enne de Silhouette had Ids name at
tachcd to them in so embarrassing a
way.—Morris Wade in Century.
