MABELS CHURCHGOING.
Mabel, the sweet little daughter.
Rebelled attains: going to church —
•’For 1 don’t understand the sermon.
And the hymns are too hard to search.
What does he talk about, mamm i’
I tret tired so lontt 'fore he’s through."
S<> the mother explained to the maiden
The service as well as she knew.
'To sit quietly, dear. I desire you.
As ever a lady should;
If you don’t understand the sermon.
Make yourself think of something that’s
good."
So the *weet little live-year-old darling.
With never a rustle or pout.
Sat still on the next Sabbath morning
Till the beautiful sermon was out.
Ti-en the glad but wondering mother
T*n*t«. Ij- asked her why.
“I did just what you told ine to, mamma;
1 kept thinking about apple pie.’
I>esr Children: I give my space to
a kind lady this w«-ek who has written
you such a nice letter. lam sure you
will enjoy it. There was something that
happ>n<d this week that made me feel
very badly. I receive,! a letter from a
little girl in Florida Inclosing me a card
a young boy had written her. She had
made an offer in the exchange column
wh! h was all right; but this young fel
low did not think so. and he wrote in
a very unkind and ungentleman-llke
manner, and it really hurt me to th'nK
one of our juniors would do su- h a thing.
I wrote to him ami sent him his card and
told him what 1 thought, and I hope I
mad.- him feel ashamed of himself. Kind
word, cost nothing—unkind ones «ut to
the heart. AI’XT SUSIE.
Mrs. Anna Pritchard. Brodie. X. C.—
Ih-ar Juniors: I htv*- our national airs.
r»t to music. How many of you can tell
What th.y are? I have five of th. old
ones and one new one. Now, to all of
you wh • will write ami tell me the whole
five correctly I will send either three
that you may select. *Th.we of you who
name less titan the whole number I w.ll
rend your choice of two. A K'xd song
is a delightful experivm-e to the singer
and the bearer, and when the vol e is
ald.d by an instrument, it is fuller and
mor.- melodious. I’id >’■ •* all know it at
music is a language? Many of you can
rend French or German. How many of
you cap read must ? It is a rare, but
most •!< dghtful io's.nipllsiiment. 1 learned
to read music and French many years
ago. ami now wh-n I have passed m>*
three-srure-year-and-ten and am a vic
tim to neuralgia and rheumatism, and of
ten it is painful to use my hands or to
rise fr-tn my h*-*i or chair I have my
mwic—many books-church music. Sun
day s h.tol music, love songs. w« < k day
nehoel music. 1 ■ annot tell you how I
love them Did you ever think of it?
We can *-a*ry our music to heaven with
us. I hope that atj of you love and
practice music. Many years I was su
perintendent of a large Sund ty s*-ho>l
and led the singing. I learned my sev
en children, and now in the evening of my
life I am teaching my two orphans and
a prayer meeting twice a week, of which
I am role leader. I can learn a tune,
by note, without uttering a round—just
as »ny of you can learn any of your
sh ol les-w-ns. All of you .an have this
knowledge if you wish It. If you write
to me send stamped- self-addrossc,j en
velope.
A LETTER OF THANKS.
I want to read the nice letter of thanks
re-cived from the president of the Kin
,l.-rgarten schools. You remember 1 told
you in my last letter that you had helped
th-m. so this letter is to thank you. I
must tell you I spent the morning at the
hospital, and carried the paper that had
my last letter in it —the little, "kissing
laig girl" was deighted to nee it. and
indeed, all the children. They are ~11
better, even th— very ill child in ”our
room. ’* The doctors think now she will
g<t well. Are rou not glad?
AUNT SUSIE.
Io tr Mrs. Klr.e- At the meeting of the
Ktndergaten Association I was ask.-d to
express to you our grateful thnnks for !*>
which you had sent us. I believe this
money ts the gift of your young friends,

Weekly Constitution. To th. m and to
you we feel Very grateful for this help.
The HMle l-abies tn our three schools are
not all blessed with good home and the

fact, there is no life complete without one,
and it Is every boys’ and girls' duty to
get an education. Some have great ad
vantages over others In many respects,

there are not many that cannot get a
good education if they try hard enough.
It Is a g-eat help to those that have to

Virglle L Carglle, Yular. Fla—Dear
Junior: Seeing and reading several of
the cousins’ letters on your great page,
1 concluded to take a part with them.
I’m at present living In the "land of
flowers, sunshine and showers.” Wh* n
I was quite young we moved from T.-xus
to the Indian Territory where my father
went Into business. We lived there three
years; from there we went to Elens
burg. Washington, across the Rocky
mountains. We went through California,
an.l part of California resembles this
state. We passed through San Francis
co. which is a beautltlul city. I caught
sight of the Golden Gate, which you all
have read so much ybout. We went on
into Oregon when* I saw some men wash
ing silver out of a hillside with large
pipes, then we crossed Columbia river on
a large steamboat.
We got into Elensburg one dark, cool
night. We were met al the depot by
Mr. W. W. Stone with a large sleigh.
The snow covered the earth so w- went
out In the country about live miles. We
lived in Washington about fourteen
months, then we moved back to the
Indian Territory, where my father es
tablished business again; from there we
came to Florida, tin- best state in the
union. We are going to start for Texas
within ten days. We are going to San

Mrs. Ella Thompson. Higgston, Ga.—
Dear Junior: In reading the Junior page
last week 1 was very much Interested
in Sallle E. Melerc’s subject, which was
"Eyes.” I. too. think they are the most
wonderful organ of the body. And with
your kind permission. Aunt Susie. I'll
send a few verses which 1 composed a
f-'W years ago on eye.>» to be published for
the children. Perhaps they will do for
some child’s speech, if y..u deem th-m
worthy a place in the children’s <o'umn:
EYES.
I like an eye whose glance is bright.
Be It from brown or blue.
Gray or hazel . r black as night.
If thej- are just and true.
From the "windows of the soul”
1 love to see th- sparks
That give expression them al! —
It doth delight my heart.
An .ye that beams of love.
For all the human race;
An eye that’s gentle as a dove,
Is becoming to any face.
An eye, the glance of which
Inspires you'- very soul
With hop.- divine. Is rich.
More valuable than gold.
Beautiful eves, whining and sweet.
And st a.ly in their gaze;
That do not droop from yours to ineet
To them lielong the praise.
Most delicate expressions ,
From th- "windows of the soul;'
I love t<> read the lessons
Your light to me unfold.
Hassle L. Baker, Hapeville. Ga..—Dear
Junior: 1 have long been a silent but ar
dent admirer of Th- Constitution. I cer
tainly enjoy reading woman's page and
the letters from the cousins.
I notice the cousins take subjects for
their letters which I think is very ele
vating, so I will take for my subject
"Home." as I haven't noticed any letters
on that subject. In the first place what
is home?
Many beautiful answers have been giv
en to inat uqestlon, but none more beau
tiful than that dear place deserves.
Home, sweet home, the golden setting in
which the brightest Jewel is mother. A
w-i’ld of strife shut out. a world of love
shut in. ...
It is a hive in which, like the indus
trious bee. youth garners the sweets
and memories o. Ilf.- for age to meditate
and feed upon. Home is lhe coziest,
kindest, swyetes. place in.all the world,
Ibe scries of otu ■ t earthly joys and
our deepest sori
How many M ‘i* s w ' v.m t<» mam?
home pleasant at.d happy for those
around us? .
If everyone* try to do this how
much happier t’il old world would be.
Ano if our horn.* were made happier the
boys of tisluy WouM !><• beiter and mote
contented an.l there would be less in!.<-
elilet done. For In my estimation A
happv home is onl> an earlier heaven.
I think t»vo of the greatest things to in
crease the happiness of home is plenty of
irmsi.’ and good books in the homt.
No* home is complete without them.
For children surround*.! with good books
will naturally cultlvat. a taste tor good
reading and lint care tor the trashy stuff
which Is so degrading and often destrue
* Home Is a grand old mirror through
which both s|d< - oi us are seen.
1 would like to .orrespond witn some
of the boys and girls for I tl} 1111 * biter
writing Is very benetivtal. Bernice
Moth, rseitd your letter was splendid.
Let us hear fr in you again. 1 guess
Aunt Susie to be about a. tears in age,
although sh- don’t seem more tnan
"sweet Sixteen" in ways. I guess I m»'*
belter quit f-r I <an imagine I can hear
her saving "I cant possibly do without
a trash basket any longer. With much
love to her and .ill the cousin.'.
Thy Name.
It holds the melody of all the world.
It holds the varied tints we see In
dreams:
And. singing it. the very heaven seems
To nearer .-me with holy s'tars unfurled:
And In its inu.-le sweet there I. impearle.l
Tile silver sunlight in its tenderest
And’ w'inspi ring it. the rippling wood
land streams
Soft echoes cutch, that to the seas are
whirl, d.
Oh. tender and beloved melody
That thrll'.-st in th- lily s heart of gold.
And bre.ithe.st from the roses' lips of

Mv soul can never sing enough of thee.
Thou boldest all the heavens heart un

O holy, and bclov»‘<l. tender name.

BELLED BUZZARD CAPTURED.
Fort Gaines Citizen Wants To Know
Who Belled It.
Fort Gaines, Ga., April 30.— (Special.)—
Mr. 11 C McAl ister, of this place, last
"w.i-k whiie on a fishing trip killed a buz
zard that was tl-Ins about with a sheep
be!! tied about Its neck. Mr. McAllister
is anxious, if possible, to know who put
the'bell about the btiszard’s neck an.l
how long ago it was done, brom the ap
pearance of the bell It must have been
ringing for a great many years, for ft Is
badly w.ather-beaten and has the ap
p.aranee of being very old. The Fort
Gaine* Sentine publishes the following
account of the way tnat the belled buz
zard was captured.
Th- fishing party we mentioned last week
as having gone <: •»n the river In bateaux re
turn. .1 home last Moi-'lay.
'i’ll* v brought with them several trophies of
the till.. I in-ng which Is II h*'ll taken from
th- n< < k of a buzzard. While opposite Dicker
son Isindlng they heard a tinkling sound al.ove
them, and looking up they were surprised an<l
very much Inleieste.l s-*• a buzzard with a
licit suspemle.l from his n*-* k. Mr. Il C. Mc-
Allister Shot It and broke one of Ils wings,.
and after a .'has. of two or thro., hundred
yards through a can. break, caught It and took
t.'ie bell from It; no'k.
Th" b.ll is a she. p Ih-11 made of sheet Iron
nnd the part* riveted together. Th- clapper
is mad- of a small tap -IT n bolt, ami a small
piece had been broken on: of one corner of the
bowl of :lw bell. The bowl seems to have
been bror.wd, but most of It Is worn off. The
bell was fasten-'.! '•> th- huxzard neck by a
small l-nther strap, whl. h was passed around
the neek twi e. an I buckled and tied with u
rawht'le Hiring.
If this rlptl«»n should be rend and rec
(>R*nlzt‘d by some one acquainted with the par
ticulars of the belling of the buzzard they will
confer a favor upon Mr. McAllister by writing
to him. addressing K. C. McAllister, Fort
Gaines. Ga.

Bill Arp’s Letter
iWrlttm for T’.»i W.-ekly Constitution.)
Whittier Is dead, but hfs p<*t!c license
and slanders still live. He was as much
a fanatic as old John Brown and no doubt
old John Imbibed from hltn his first les
sons in hatred of the south and slavery
Whittier's poems are before me and
thirty-seven of them are wallings for
the slave and malignant stings against
the southern statesmen, Inc udlng Ca.-
h >un, and the southern people. He was
an intense secessionist and when Texas
was admitted he prayed in verse for a
yawning gulf to open and separate the
north from the south. When Daniel Web
ster made his last and greatest speeca
at Capon Springs, in which he defended
the south and declared that had the
right to withdraw from the union when
we believed the federal compact ha-J
been broken. Whittier flew to his Inkstand
and wrote this of hltn:
"So fallen! S> lost! The light withdrawn
Which once be wore;
The g.ory from his gray hairs gone
For evermore.
Let not the land once proud of him
Insult him n<>w,
Nor brand with d< eper shame his dim.
Dishonored brow.
All else is gone- from those great eyes
The soul Is tied
V nen faith is lost ana m?<»or dies
The man is dead.
Then pay the reverence of old days
To Ids dead fame;
Walk backward, with averted gaze
And hide his sharnc.”
That Is part of the tribute he paid to
the immortal Webster, the grandest fig
ure in New England history.
But 1 was not troubling myself about
the gifted o'.d fanatic. 1 was ruminating
about Chauncey Depew, who Is nut dead
and who every little while bobs up serene
ly to get a little more fame as a humor
ist. It seems that when General Early
passed through Frederick City, in Mary
land. he paused ,ong enough to exact
from the good people the sum of
for army purposes, for as Whittier wrote
of them, they were "a famished horde,"
and now that city has applied to congress
for a refunding of that money and one
reason they give Is that an old woman
In her ninety-sixth year waved the union
flag at the rebels and Stonewall Jackson
ordered his men to tire at her and they
fired and b:oke the window glass and
riddled the flag and knocked It out of
her hand and she picked It up and waved
it again. That's the poetic yarn that
Whltti-r told about Baruara Freltchle and
a committee from Frederick City has
been before congress and said it was
so. Chauncey Depew heard it ill and
said It was worth 32W.WD to have the
truth of the story established and h*’ n d
ded his head approvingly an.l said that
“old Barbara was one of the Idols of his
childhood, and when he played around
his mother’s knees his heart throbbed
with sympathy for the gray-halred old
woman whose patriotism detied the ene
mies of his ■ ountry.” The old Rip Van
Winkle! I reckon that Is one of his
latest Jokes, for he was born in D 34. and
was twenty-eight years old when our
army was In Frederick City, and he w is
then playing around his mother's knees
in the New York legislature.
Dr. J. William Jones, of Richmond, the
highest authority on confederate history,
has published in the March number of
The Confederate Veteran another expos
ure of this wanton malignant myth about
Barbara Freitchie, und does so only be
cause the poem has gotten into some
southern schoolbooks and he wishes to
brand with falsehood tills vile slander on
St 'ii.-wall Jackson. The whole miserable
thing was Investigated not at Washing
ton. but on the spot at Frederick City,
and it was established years ugo that no
confederate troops passed in sight of the
old woman’s house; that no flag was
waved; that Stonewall Ja-kson was not
then with Ids troops, andxthat old Bar
bara was bed-ridden ad paralyz-d and
could not have waved a flag It she had
had one. The dame’s nephew, Valerius
Ebert, has published his c< rtillcate that
the flag story Is all a myth without the
slightest foundation, an.l that his old
aunt was at that time bed-ridden and had
lost the power of locomotion. Ebert was
there at the time, and was the admin
istrator on tier estate when she died and
never heard of any tlag, and yet one of
the rascals who is after that money testi
fied that he had the tlag at home at his
house. The very last curse in the Bible
is against him who niaketli or loveth a
lie, and It makes no difference whether
he is a poet, priest or senator, he will l.nd
himself in awful bad company in the
world to come. Years ago this myth was
exploded in lhe New York .Sun while
Dana was living, but now .hat lie is dead
it has come to light again in its columns.
That paper’s motto used to lie "if )o:i see
It In The Sun it's so,” but now if you see
It in The Sun it’s not so, would tit it bet
ter. I wish that every confederate sol
dier and their children and grandchil
dren would subscribe far The \ eteran
and Keep up with the best memories of
.he l ost Cause—a ct.use for which we are
still proud, for it gets brighter and purer
as the years roll on. Some months ago
Dr. Andrews, the great educator, de
clared and published that every principle
the south fought for had since been be
fore tne supreme court of the nation and
decided in its favor—and recently a not
able New England minister has declared
that negro suffrage was a miserable blun
der, and that the fifteenth and sixte- nth
amendments to the constitution should be
repealed.
Well, time is a good doctor, and the
south is on the. upgrade. The republic
an party may be re-eleeted, but the south
cannot be worsted. The day will come
w hen pensions and back pay will be given
our old soldiers and our confederate wid
ows, and our northern slanderers will
take off their hats an.l apologize. We
are trying hard at my house to be re
conciled—to forget and forgive nnd be
.alm and serene when holding social In
tercourse with those who tit on the other
side, and we get along pretty well as long
as they meet us on halfway ground, but
as for these vile slanderers who keep on
lying and rubbing it in. we are very much
like iny lamented friend. George Adair,
said about a preacher in whom he had no
confidence: "Well, he may get to heaven,
for the grace of Go,] Is very great, but if
I get there I’ll not hunt him up to say
howdy—l don’t want to live on the same
street with him." BILL ARP.
ORDERED MORMONS TO LEAVE.
Two Eiders Have Rough Time at
Pineville, N. C.
Chattanooga, Tenn.. April 30.—(Special.)
The Mormon elders have just had a
tough time in the little town of Pine
ville, N. C. It appears that the two el
<b rs, one of them named Robison, who
have been in the field about a year, went
to Pineville to get their mail. While in
the town they thought they would do a
little missionary work. They tried to en
ter several houses to counsel with the
inmates and leave literature. They were
stopped, however, they say. by a Pres
byterian minister, who followed them.
They finally went to the mayor for pro
tection and that functionary ran from
them. In the meantime the citizens met
an.l sent a committee of twelve lend
ing merchants to the elders to Inform
them that they would be allowed Just
one hour to shake the dust of Pineville
from their feet. The elders were dis
posed to argue the point, when they were
forcibly led to the city limits and told
to leave and not return on pain ol' a
punishment so severe that it would be
cruel to state what it would b". The el
ders have given Pineville a wide berth
since.
