THE HACOH TELEGRAPH: SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 5, 1894. THE STROLLER. TH»t was not a bad story tt gentle man told on himself to the Stroller yesterday- Said b$: 1,1 occupy part ot a house on one of tho principal residence streets c f the dty. Toe other part of the Douse Is occupied by a family^Tho is no# spending the summer from the . y. one of the members of the other fs mly 1* a young lady who has won cenaiaerolole fame tu an artist, and « lose room la tn the second story of rne nouse. The room Is thecoo.est and ii rusantest In the house, and as I had o«a given alccess to the entire house during the absence of the family_t determined, after being unable to sieep in my own room on account of the heat, to give the young lady’s room ti u ul. Accordingly about 2 o’clock the o’.ier morning I went up stairs and, without making a light, went to bed. Hue bed was soft und the room cool »ud in a few minutes I dropped off lino real.y the first restful sleep X hud had In some time. So sound did* sleep mut 1 did not open my eyes when cny wife culled me next morning, and kept on sleeping until at lust une sharply reminded me that I would be a couple of hours late to getting to the office. Tnls started me, und with a bound I sprung from the .bed. The bright eun- i.-ut of noonday’was pouring In the open window, and. bless my soul, if I d.d not see standing in full view of me. within reach of my arm, a beauti ful young woman perfectly nude. ,In- e tin lively I snatched the sheet from the b ' and hastily wrapped it around me. i .*./ expecting a scream and some suca movement on her part, but she never moved or uttered a sound. I felt ail the mortification and shame possible for a man to feel, and for fear of meeting her reproachful glance, I closed my eye* and after holding my breath for a ?.w minutes, which al lowed me time to resolve upon a course of action, I gradually felt my way along 'the wall until I reached the door, which I threw open and went through like a shot, closing the door behind me. My wife heard me coming down the stairs four at a time and ran out into the hallway to ascertain the cause of such haste. As soon os I could I told her what I had seen, and asked her to go up to the room and explain and apologize to the young lady. She looked Incredulous, and, while she did not say so, I know she thought I was crazy. In order to humor me, however,, she went, and In a minute more I heard her laughing ns she bos never laughed since our honeymoon twenty-odd years ago. Finally, she came to the head of the stairs and called cne. I meekly an swered, and she told me to come up and see what a fool I had been. I de murred, but she insisted and said there was no one up there. Cautiously and with much misgiving I went up stairs. My wife tools me by the arm and led me Into the room, and there, standing on the floor, leaning against the waU' near the. bed, was a life-size oil painting of Mother Eve without the proverbliU fig leaf adornments. Even now she seemed like n living, breath ing woman, and I felt myself blushing" as I approached for a closer scrutiny to make sure It was only a picture. Of course. I satisfied myself that it was a picture, but I’ll tell you it Is the most perfect piece of art I ever saw, and I don’t believe there is ai man liv ing who would have known It was a picture when seen under .the circum stances that I first saw it.” ’’ ‘Laugh, and the world laughs with you! weep, and you weep alone.' There never was written'anything more true than this often-repeated quotation,” said a Jolly, good-natured citizen yes terday. "Every day I see people go ing about wearing a worried look cry ing hard times, and not only making themselves miserable, but the lives of every ’one with whom' they come, in contact, and I’ll tell you It Is my can did opinion that these morose, gloomy, bilious people are responsible for the hard ’times. People hear them talk atnd catch the contuglon, while, an the other hand, you take a cheerful, genlhl per son and talk with him, no matter if he Is as poor as Job’s turkey, you will feel belter after having done so. Go Into some business bouses and there you will find the same amount of, if not more, business being carried on than before, but the proprietors will tell you they are not doing anything, and that the whole world la going to the demnltion bow-wows on the early mornfng train. Before you leave there you will begin to feel os he does, and freeze on the few dollars you might have like grim death to a nigger, and If you don’t apologize to yourself foV living you will think you ought to. Next go Into another business house, may be next door to the first one, nnd you will be told that business Is good and the outlook bright. The proprietor wears a contented look a"nd tells you that he Is doing welt. Before you leave he tells you a Joke and you both laugh heartily. You fell like you want to stay with such a man nnd think that the first man Is a fraud, but at the same time there Is a sneaking suspi cion way down In your boots that he is a far-seeing business man, and you In a measure overcome the cheerful feel ing the second business man lins awakened In you. Then you meet an other bilious mm, who piles on the agony even worse than the first, and you go over to the majority nnd your self swear that you never cam such hard times. The trouble to there are more people In this world who look on the dark side of things than there are who look on the bright side, and" this Is the way I account for dull times. Some of the gold bugs started H, and we small fry took up the cry of "me too," and so the story goes. As for. my part, I intend to keep cheerful let come what may, nnd all my spore tlmesvi'.l be devoted to making others feel like I do. I believe If I con get a hundred influential people In Macon to Join me In declaring that there Is no such a thing as hard times, and let their ac tions be In accordance with their speech, that we would soon see the most prosperous era In this city that was ever seen before.” It Is a source of the greatest gratifica tion to notice with what depth of feel ing the hospital people give expression to their enthusiasm brer the final es tablishment of the hospital. "Oh. ves.” a director said yesterday, "we will open up a first-class hospital In Macon on October 1. We have beat nnd banged away until It *s now not a thin* In promise but n thing Indeed. But then I suppose the only way to ac complish whatever Is undertaken Is to no In prepared to shovel dirt It neces sary." “How Is the Home fbr the Friendless getting aloe* now?" was asked a lady— n member of the Klng’a Daughters no ble band—yesterday. "Well, we have managed by the lib erality bf our frlenda to tide over the emergency that threatened us n week ago and can now go abend for at least " m-.nth. But we must have some more e'lbetantall backing than that which la afforded ua by the casual contributions °f sympathetic friends. We must have ’ ^me regular source of assistance to '»’k to. for with nil the demands upon •he hbme—the constant Influx of In mates sent-there by the dty and others —it cannot purport to do the half of *hat Is suggested by the name unlees th»-e is some oonstsnt substantial nld. “Now. we are going to nek the dty coundl next Tuesday night to appro priate 13.000 annually to the home, the ■nod. of course, to be managed by the king’s Daurhiers. We believe our Mends In council who appreciate what " being done at the home will not re- fuae our call for assistance.” “We have some rich experiences bo ld the power which makes the world.
