LOVE’S MOODS.
KIIITII M. THOMAS.
1 thought of my love in the distance,
Silent and wild was the place;
In n moment her voice lent its mush,
And around shone the light of her face—
Her face, nnd hers only !
I stood in my love's sweet presence,
But a mood wrapped her soul from all
view:
We spake, hut on flowed the silence,
And deeper the solitude grew —
How deep ami how lonely!
An Indorsement of Mrs. W. Y.
Atkinson. *wm
John Temple (iraves in Atlanta Journal.
I have a large measure of personal
sympathy with the candidacy of one
heroic woman for a responsible public
office in tho Stale.
I fought the political career of Wil
liam Y. Atkinson as I have never
tought any man in public life, before
or since.
In two successive campaigns—and
in the fight nlmost single bunded—I
opposed tho system of politics by
which he rose.
I spread in that storm every stitch
of sail in my equipment. I threw out
of it every traitorous fear, and dis
carded the entire ballast of personal
and selfish consideration. It was the
sternest and strongest incident of my
placid anti unruflled life.
I did not win. Gov. Atkinson
sniled serenely—If by a narrow mar
gin—Into Ute haven of success. I
was left adrift for n season upon the
high seas, as a derelict.
I have lived to see vindicated and
established every principle of politics
for which I fought nnd suffered.
He was great enough to recognize
tho difference between a personal nnd
a political opposition, and liked me
not the less for the open battle I had
waged.
He died my friend, aud I remained
his admirer.
I have not forgotten the strenuous
and thrilling canvass in which the
woman who hoars Ills name proved
her devoted loyalty, nnd established
her claim to roninrkable nbility. It
Is an epic in the record of woman’s
work in Georgia—and few men have
written a history iu more heroic
measure.
Ability can nover be a doubtful Is
sue in any claim which tills remarka
ble woman may prefer. In the high
stations that her husband held, she
was everywhere bis counselor, Ills
helpmeet, and his oqual friend. She
boro her part in tho white light of
station as strongly ns the Governor
carried his own, and the mistress of
the Executive Mansion was ns famous
ns its lord.
And when lie pnssed from strife to
peace, nnd left her heavy-laden with
responsibility—there was never n cry
of wenknosB from that shadowed
home, nor a single moment of sur
render. Sorrow lay life-deep in the
heart of the widow, but courage and
duty rifted the clouds with purpose,
and the woman iu weeds went to
work for her own.
She worked ns a woman works,
deftly and hopefully. Site worked ns
a man works, strongly and fearlessly.
And she Iish won.
In the hardest of callings; in the
most abstract and tangled of advoca
cies; in the most crowded of business
lines; and in the midst of swarming
competition, she has carried an in
surance agency to success, and, work
ing alone, has established, as a widow,
a record of business capacity that
ranks the political prestige she won
ms a wife.
Surely then here is a record that
■hould command the good will of wo
man and the respect of men.
Mrs. William Y. Atkinson is a can
didate for custodian of the State Li
brary of Georgia. I am one of hun
dreds of Georgians who cordially wish
her to have It.
I think that the record and services
of her distinguished husband com-
meud her to success among a people
who have always been prompt to re
member the wives nnd daughters of
their public eervants.
I think that the diligent aud suc
cessful record of her brave aud stren
uous life commend her to the good
will of the gentlemen who disburse
these offices in Georgia.
1 think that the peculiar heroism of
her struggle, and the peculiar difficul
ties she lias met aud surmouuted,
present in her caso an opportunity
by which a chivalrous State cau hon
or, in her person, the work aud the
worth of woman.
I think that her proven capacity in
public and private uffairs justify her
appointment to the place.
And I believe that every political
procedeut ami every amenity of pub
lic life, and every instinct of courtesy
aud chivalry, will incline the present
Governor of Georgia to honor and
assist tho struggling widow of his dis
tinguished predecessor in the chair of
State.
It remains to say that I do not
know the other candidates—if there
be any—for thiB responsible trust.
So that I enter, without prejudice,
and in the abstract advocacy of one
notable and noble aspirant.

1 dare say, that there isn’t a wo
man on eartli who hasn’t a theory on
the subject of how to manage a hus
band, nnd I have never yet come
across a man who was any the worse
for a little scientific handling now and
then. If I were In the llorist business
I’d send a palm to a certain Senator’s
daughter, who lins set an example
managing wives might follow with
profit. Site has n husband, this Sen
ator’s daughter, who is disposed to he
critical. Most of his friends are men
of greut wealth, who lire extremely
well, and association with them has
made him sornewlint hard to please in
the matter of booking. For some
time the tendency has been growing
on him. Scarcely a meal at bis homo
table passed without criticism from
him.
“What is this meant for?” he would
ask after testing an entree bis wife
had racked her brain to think np.
“What ou earth is this? 4 '’ be would
say when dessert came on.
“Is this supposed to be a salad?”
he would Inquire sarcastically when
the lettuce was served. His wife
stood it as long as she could. One
evening he came home in a particu
larly captious humor. Hie wife was
dressed in her most becoming gown
and fairly bubbling over with wit.
They went iu to dinner. The soup
tureen was brought in. Tied to one
handle was a card, and on that card
the information in a big, round hand:
“This is soup.”
Roast beef followed with a placard
announcing:
‘‘This is roast beef.”
The potatoes were labelled. The
gravy dish was placarded. The olives
bore a card marked “Olives,” the
salad bowl carried a tag marked
“Salad,” and when the ice cream
came in a card announcing “This is
ice cream” came with it. The wife
talked of a thousand different things
all through the meal, never once re
ferring by word or look to the labeled
dishes. Neither theu or thereafter
did he say a word about them, and
never since that evening has the
captious husband veutured to inquire
what anything set before him is.

A Wasted Search.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Thirty years and more ago the
statement was current in the news
papers of the country that a hand
some premium was offered for pen
nies of the year 1857. Jsst how the
item started nobody knew, but once
published it traveled fast. The Cleve
land Herald copied the paragraph,
and in a jocose way added a line or
two to it. The editor stated that con
siderable doubt having been thrown
upon the truth of tbe item, tive Her
ald, in order to set the minds of its
readers at reBt on tbe subject, wan
prepared and willing to pay f5> for
1857 pennies if delivered at the Her
ald building in good condition.
One of the earliest callers at the
Herald building the nest morning was
a milkman, wearing a long linen eoat
with sagging pockets. He was ex
cited and talked fast, and his linen
coat pockets sent forth a sound of
merry jfngling. He didn’t stop at the
counting room, but bustled upstairs
to tbe editorial sanctum.
“1 seen that piece yon had in the-
paper Inst night,” he hastily began.
“1 mean the one about giviiuf 15 ter
1857 pennies. Is it all rkW?”
“Yes,” said the mow addressed,,
“it’s nil rigbt.”
“Well,” cried the milkman, strag
gling; bard to keep down his exuber
ance, “I’ve got a lot of ’em here.”
And he made his sagging pockets jin
gle again.
“Have you got 1867 of them? 1 ” in
quired tbe Herald man quietly.
The milkman stared, bis jaw
dropped, he turned and fled to the
door and went down the stairs three
steps at a jump, his linen coat tails
slapping the walls with a metallic
crash at every jump.
Dr. W. H. Lewis, Lawrenceville,
Va., writes: “I am using Kodol Dys
pepsia Care in my practice among se
vers cases of indigestion and find it
an admirable remedy.” Many hun
dreds of physicians depend upon tbe
use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure in stom
ach troubles. It digests what you eat,
and allows you to eat all the good
food you need, providing yon do not
overload your stomach. Gives instant
relief aud a permanent cure. G. R.

When Mme. Patti was married to
the Swedish Baron Cederstrom she
not only secured a third husband, but
one a great many years younger than
hereslf. Tbe world-famed songstress
has so well preserved her youth and
j beauty that people are apt to forget
! that she is now in her 58th year. She
I was born in Madrid iu February, 1843.
j At the age of 25 she became the wife
of the Marquis de Caux, and eighteen
years later she found a second hus
band in Signor Nicolini, who died
about two and a half years ago. Sev
eral months afterward her engage
ment to Baron Cederstrom was an
nounced, aud before many weeks had
elapsed the marriage took place. Tbe
Baron is a handsome young Swede of
engaging manners. Counting by
years, be is little more than half tbe
age of his gifted and ever-youthful
wife.
When Young Men Make Calls.
Ladies’ Home Journal.
In making an afternoon call a man
usually leaves bis overcoat, umbrella
or stick, bat and gloves in the hall
before entering the drawing-room.
He may, if he choose, carry his hat
and stick into the room at a first or
formal call, if it is to be very brief,
except at a reception. He removes
his rigbt glove before offering to
shake hands.
He never offers his hand first, but
waits tbe invitation of hia hostess. If
she is behind her tea-table, she may
not rise to greet him, but gracefully
includes him in the conversation and
perhaps bows her adieus.
It is an evidence of good breeding
to enter and leave a room unobtru
sively.
It is not usual to introduce a guest
upon his entrance to more than one
other. He never shakes hands when
presented to a woman, but always
when introduced to a man.
He may leave upon the arrival of
other guests after fifteen minutes,
turning his back as little as possible
upon the company and bowing com
prehensively at the door.
A woman never accompanies a man
to tiie vestibule, but takes leave of
him in the drawing-room. It is no
longer necessary to press one’s guest
to call again.
The lady always gives the invita
tion to call. A man must not go be
yond an evident pleasure in her so
ciety by way of suggestion. Some
times a woman friend will exert her
self for him. The sooner the call fol
lows the invitation the greater the
compliment. A fortnight is the usual
interval.

ple unable to procure the Ear Drums
