them out, and in which good-natured
patronesess hold up their friends and
make them huy tickets.
Now, these girls have plenty of intel
ligence. They could make good livings
if they would only come down off their
high horseB and plough a little, and do
something practical, give some use
ful service that the world needs.
You don’t see every man trying to be
an actor, or writer, or doctor, or law
yer. If you did you would see among men
as much wholesale starvation and fail
ure as you do among women. Men realize
that they have got to be grocers and
butchers, bakers and candlestick ma
kers, and that, while we can do with
out the fine arts on a flinch, we have
got to have the common necessities,
and that the purveyors of them are the
ones that make the money.
So I entreat the young women who
are contemplating going to work to sup
port themselves to choose something
useful to do, something practical to do.
Do the work that lies closest to you so
well that somebody will not only be
willing hut anxious to pay you for do
ing it. There’s never any dearth of a
market for a super-excellent quality of
goods, and this applies to. labor more
than anything else, The world is flood
ed with amateurs, but there are never
enough experts in any line to go
around.
Many a girl who fails as an actress
could make a fortune raising chickens
if she put half as much study on the
temperament of a hen as she does on
the psychology of Lady Macbeth. Many
a girl who paints dauby pictures that
she can’t sell for $2 apiece would have
women breaking their necks to pay her
$75 for hats. Many a girl who is starv
ing along trying to write pot boilers
could be riding in her own automobile
if she had worked as hard at the art of
keeping boarders as she does at trying
to learn to write.
Do something practical and useful,
girls. The world has always got to be
fed and clothed, and washed and cleaned,
and have its sox darned, and its bills
kept, and as long as you minister to the
world's comfort you can always get
paid for it. Don't be misled by the
glamor about any kind of work. The
only fancy brand on work is the dollar
mark. And the way to get that is to do
something that the people really need.
DO SOMETHING USEFUL.
Dorothy Dlx, in Atlanta Georgian.
This is a time of peculiar uphcavul in
tho feminine world. Up to now the av
erage American girl lias expected to
stay at home until she was married and
then go to a home of her own. And she
could fairly safely count on getting
married.
In the past few years, however, this
comfortable programme of life has
been altered. The high cost, of living
Has made it impossible for the man in
ordinary circumstances to support a
family of girls in comfort. The girls
themselves have heard so much about
thi' parasitic woman that they huve be
come ashamed of hanging like a mill
stone around a poor old father’s neck.
Also, tlie chances of catching a husband
are greatly diminished, and young wo
men of presentable appearance are no
longer certain, as they formerly were,
of getting married.
All of these conditions have turned
the thoughts of girls toward self-sup
port. This is well. There is no more
reason why an intelligent and able-bod
ied young woman should be dependent
on somebody else for her living tiiun
there iH why a man should be. It de
velops a woman's brain and brawn and
character to do some regular work
whereby site earns honest money and
acquires the strength tn stand on her
own feet instead of Hopping, like a limp
dishrag, on some stronger individual.
Hut it takes a long time to rid our
selves of the superstition of the past,
and one of the most persistent of these
hoodoos is that when a woman works
she must always do some lady-kind of
work — that is, something artistic or lit
erary and that is genteel—just as it
was considered in the past more refined
and elegant for a woman to do embroid
ery than it was to do plain, useful sew
ing.
For this reason at least 90 per cent,
of the girls who want to work want to
go on the stage, or to recite, or do par
lor entertaining, or write, or paint.
Also, they want to do these things in a
dilettante manner and receive large re
wards for their labors. They overlook
the fact that to succeed in the fine arts
us well as in common occupations you
huve to slave like a dray horse, and
that there are absolutely no short cuts
or quick roads to success. Behind ev
ery star on the stage ami every well-
kmnvn writer there lies an apprentice
ship that lias been served in toil and
sweat and blood.
Now. of course, if a girl has the di
vine lire, and has given unmistakable
signs of a genius for acting, or paint
ing, or writing, she does well to choose
the calling to which tier talent dedicates
her. Hut there is no such tiling as a
girl making herself into a Maude Ad
ams because she would like to be on the
stage, or into a Helen Glasgow be- .

“Time to Cheer Up.”
The Memphis News-Scimitar says it
is time to cheer up. “The election is
over and Thanksgiving and Christmas
are coming.” says the News-Scimitar.
"Cheer up. Business is better, and
nothing is needed but courage and
hustle to make it better still.
“Cheer up!

have your troubles—troubles you can’t

“Cheer up!
“Our ills are largely imaginary. If
we were really on the brink of bank

it’s ns foolish for an ungifted girl to
think that she can make herself a writer

stubby woman to think she could make
herself into a tall, willowy goddess. It
simply can’t be done.
It is my unhappy lot in life to see
hundreds of these would-be artist and
actor and writer girls who come to the
city seeking their fortunes and who find
no market for their poor wares, and
are stranded in its hard streets. There's
hariilv a week in the year that half a
dozen of these forlorn creatures are not

Uncle John on the War Situation
The F’rotrrcBRlvo Farmer.
“Been to town, Uncle John?” asked
the agricultural man, as Uncle John,
BBtride his gray mule, drew up by the
side of a field the dee-monstrator, as
Uncle John called him, was inoculating
preparatory to planting crimson clover.
“Yes,” said the old man, "I hearn
that they wan't no mnrket fer cotton,
so I ’lowed I’d go to Laurel and see the
Hicks Mercantile Co. about it, an’, by
gum! I found they didn’t want no cot
ton shore ’nuff! I went ail over town
an’ ast every feller I seen an’ the best
any of ’em would do was to ofTer to
loan me twenty-five dollars a bale on it.
Said they didn’t want it at all; that Yir-
rup and Stir-up wuz in a big rucus, an’
all the ships wus sunk an’ the mills shot
down, an’ that them fool furriners wus
so busy a shootin’ each other that they
wuz a payin’ mighty little attention to
whether they had any clothes or not,
anyway.
"Yes,” Uncle John went on, taking
a chew of navy, “it seems that a feller
over there they call the Kayser got to
itching fur a fight, an’ pulled otr his
coat an’ axed the Czar of sumthin’-or-
other wh it he wuz goin’ to do about it.
Then the Czar didn’t say nothin', but
started to shuckin’ his coat, too. From
this the thing started, an’ now they say
that Ireland an’ Jay-pan and Novy
Scoshy air into it, with Turkey an’ Pee-
ru a-gettin’ ready, an' that what they
all want ain’t cotton, but sumpthin’ to
cat.
“What gits me,” grumbled the old
man, picking his teeth with a splinter
from off the rail fence, “is that I acted
the fool agin this year an’ didn’t plant
much corn, thinkin’ I’d strike it rich
with a big crop o’ cotton. I made the
cotton, all right, but now I can’t sell
the stufL Didn’t plant much corn, an’
the early drouth got it, an’ now it’s up
to a dollar and a quarter a bushel, an’
likely to go higher.
“Say,” he concluded, pulling his mule
away from the rank grass in the fence
corner, preparatory to riding on, “what
wuz that I hearn you a-sayin’ tother
day about treatin’ oats fer smut? I
bought ten bushels to-day an’ wish
you’d come over an’ help me put ’em
in right. I kin put in my clover the
same day an’ you kin help me out on
the monopolation. I got stung pretty
bad ail aroun’ this year, what with
this war an’ me being an ole fool be

“Hope de train won’ be long corn

‘About ten minutis, uncle,” the
agent reassured him.
The old man went to the platform and
studied the bulletin board very seri
ously. Then he returned to the win
dow. “Did you say my train would be
’long in ten minutes, suh?” he asked,
anxiously.
“Yes, uncle.”
“Jest axed you, suh, ’cause dat dere
board oay, ‘All trains on time ’cept
one,’ and I was jest figurin’dat one
would be mine.”
“All the trains are on time. Some
one’s tampered with the bulletin board!”
declared the agent excitedly, and
rushed to the platform.
He stared for a moment at the board,
then at the old negro. Slowly his face
relaxed into a broad grin. The bulle
tin read:
“All trains on time—Sept. 1.”

It is the tissue building, curative ele

makes it so successful in building up

Resolutions of Respect
ADOPTED By WOMAN’S MISSIONARY SOCIETY OF
THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH, NEWNAN,
GA.. ON THE HOME-GOING OF MRS.
AODIE GORDON VARNER.
We, as a society, feel constrained not
to let pass the opportunity of ascribing
a tribute of love and respect to the
memory of our departed sister. She
was born in McDonough, Ga., Jan. 8,
1845; united with the Baptist church at
Indian Springs, Ga., and was baptized
by Rev. Newton Nehemiah Edge on a
Sunday afternoon in July, 1870. On
Sunday, Oct. 11, 1914, she fell asleep,
and the sweet, gentle spirit returned
to the God who gave it. How fitting
that both her baptism and coronation
took place on the day she loved best!
“Whoever scatters sunshine enriches
human lives.” Her's was a life that
was bright, full of sunshine and cheer,
and the sweetness of her spirit is with
us still. She wanted that her life should
be bright with sunshine. Thoughts of
life were uppermost in her mind, and
she sought life and love that she might
have it more abundantly. Her mission
was to serve God, and she was filled
with the joy of love and service. It
was in the places of need where shone
brightest her noble spirit, and what
she was in the various relations of life
they best can tell who knew her most
intimately. Her nature was softened
and sweetened by the trials of life. One
of her favorite passages of scripture
was: “Though He slay me, yet will I
trust in Him.” She entered the “val
ley of the shadow” fearing no evil.
Her Savior was with her in the “deep
waters,” whence she came forth a spir
it redeemed and glorified. Her spirit is
with God, who giveth life to the soul.
Therefore, be it —

sympathies extended, we commend

A traveler visiting a large factory
made a bet with the manager that he
would pick out all the married men
among the employees. Accordingly he
stationed himself at the door as they
came back from dinner, and mentioned
all those whom he believed to be mar
ried, and in almost every case he was
right.
“How do you do it?” asked the man
ager, in amazement.
“Oh, it’s quite simplp,” said the
traveler, “quite simple. The married
men all wipe their feet on the mat; the
single men don’t.”
