She Accept d the Seat.
She was a pretty girl employed in
(own town store and lie was a bad
>ad man. They boarded in the saiu*
ioii.-4e on one of tbe south side avenues
.nd he used to watch her asBhe trlppec
ip the stairs or ate her mpals, or sat in
he parlor and sung an alto to populai
ongs and he fairly seethed with a bai
leal re to break her heart. But sh
•arried herself so delicately aud draper:
•eivelf so completely in a certain man-
•el, the gift of her god-mother, called
••maidenly reserve, that he had nr
jhance to intrude the odinm of his ter-
ible badne3s upon her. says the Chi
:igo Herald. And finally his procllv
ties lor terrible deeds so wrought
ipon him that he was put to bis wits'
• d, and when a bad young man about
own on a salary of $10 a week gets ti
lis wits’ end he has found the verj
joint of nowhere, and there is no limb
;<» what lie will do.
So this bad young man went anr
lought a ticket for the theater, and h<
-nciosed it in a nice little patchoul
cent! d note to the young girl. In it
io said something to this effect: “I eu
lose ticket No. 2 for row ‘G’ at th*
pera house.” He didn’t add, “I wil
ccupy No. 1,” but the girl had bright
yes aud read between the lines.
Now, if the writer had been mar
nough to say that with her permlesiot
ie would escort her to the theater an>
hrow himself upon the ground ol
loromon brotherhood and sisterhood
inder the same roof and all that, tin
'irl, not being a prude, might hav*
iccepted his invitation. But such ai
nvltation would not have suited tli«
nor bid imagination of the bad jounf
nan at all. When the girl with th>
bright eyes read the note she wa
jleased with a plan that popped !nt»
»<»r he’d then and there. The land
ady of the boarding house was »•
vomin turned 50 and weighed onlj
100 pounds, and jolly and go*>d as golu
So the young lady asked the laudiad}
o accept the “ticket No. 2, row G,’
for one night only. And taking tin
iortly landlady Into her conttdenc*

The bad young man, when h.

The landlady enjoyed the play hugely,

he had never retired at night with-
ut first saying his prayers, but one

louse and through the park, ao tha!
he little fellow was well uigh worn

ay down to r* st and in a few mo-
nents was fast asleep. Not having
to disturb him, his mother and I un-
lressed him aud carefully put him ti
led. Late in the evening an earth
juake oeeured, and the great building
rocked violently to and fro. I will con
■ess that we were all alarmed, and om
wo daughters rushed headlong into the
room, thoroughly frightened by the uu
isnal experience. In the midst of thb
confusion little Allan sprangout ol bed.
tnd realizing what had occonred, fel
upon his knees.
“When he arose he said: -That to
because I forgot to say my prayers,
and God is angry.’
“He never missed saying then;

Nothing has been done for years ir
public body in this State that has sc
overwhelmingly aroused and stirrec
the people as the refusal on the part ol

The following is a strong article 01
the subject furnished the Atlanu
Constitution by the Rev. W. J. Scott:
Let no man who voted against the
acceptance of the Confederate Soldiers’
Home, even as a pure gratuity, flatter
himself that by such an act he cai
secure the endorsement of his owi
constituents, or even the approval o'
fair minded Northerners.

Annapolis hospital, suffering with chronic

benefit to me. I did not take It, but per
suaded my nurse to get me some of Dr.
Ayer’s Pills. About two o'clock I11 tlie after
noon I took six of these pills, and by mid
night began to feel.better. In the morning
tlie doctors came again, and after deciding
that my symptoms were more favorable, gavo
me a different medicine, which I did not use,
but took four more of tlie pills Instead. The
next day the doctors came to see me, and
tliought I was doing nicely, (and so did I).
I then took one pill a day for a week. At tlie
end of that time, I considered myself cured
aud tliat Ayer’s Pills had saved my life. I
was then weak, but had no return of the
disease, and gained In strength as fast as
could be expected.”—F. C. Luce, Late Lieut.
