Artistic Triumph of
An Atlanta Woman
GABRIEL AND THE HOUR BOOK.
It has been said that one of the best
tests of a child's book Is that It shall
be Interesting to grown-ups. If this
be true, Evaleen Stein's recent contri
bution to juvenile literature Is quite up
to the mark. As with “The Rosea of
Bt. Elisabeth" (the first of a new series
published by L. C. Page & Co., Bos
ton), "Gabriel and the Hour Book," js
equlsltely Illustrated by Adelaide Ever
hart, whose artistic touch will doubt
less double the sale of this book, as It
did with the other.
The story Is laid In the time of Louis
XII. of France. "In those days—It was
four hundred years ago—printed books
were very few, and almost unknown
to most people, for printing presses
had only been invented a few years,
and so by far the greater number of
books,In the world were still mnde by
the patient labor of skillful nands; the
work usually being done by the monks,
of whom there were very many at that
time. These monks, or brothers, hnv-
Ing more time and more learning than
most other people of those days, made
It their chief work to preserve and
multiply all the books that were worth
keeping. These they wrote out on
parchment and then ornamented the
pages -with such beautiful painted
borders of flowers and birds and saints
and angels, and such lovely Initial let
ters, all In bright colors and gold, that
to this day large numbers of the beau
tiful books made by the monks ore
still kept among the choicest treas
ures of the libraries of the world. Now
of all the Illuminated books for which
the Abbey of 8t. Martin's had become
so famous, none were quite so exqui
sitely done as those made by Brother
Stephen."
A little peasant boy, Gabriel, was
very proud to become the color grinder
for Brother Stephen, who had received
an order from the king, Louis XU, who
reigned ovr France, and was soon to
wed the Lady Anne of Bretagne. The
king knew how much the noble ladles
of his day admired the beautifully
painted Hour Books. These books were
so called because In them were written
different parts of the Bible, Intended to
be read at certain hoars of the day.
King Louis having decided on an Hour
Book for a gift to his bride, sent the
order to the Abbey of St. Martin's.
How Gabriel helped Brother Stephen
In the execution of this famous book,
for It Is still preserved with great care
In France, Is the story that Evaleen
Stein has written, and Miss Everhart
has so perfectly Illustrated. Her ar
tistic work does honor to the subject
and a more exquisite little volume
has not appeared for a long time.
Miss Everhart as an artistic genius
Is becoming widely known throughout
the country. For years she has stood
at the very top as a rare painter of
portraits and tapestries. Recently her
Illustration of books has nwakened the
most enthusiastic admiration among
the best and most exacting critics. Her
Illustrations In "The Roses of St. Elis
abeth" (Mrs. Frank L. Woodruff's very
fasclnntlng story, published last year,
and which has exhausted already sev
eral editions) were among the most
benutlful brought out during the past
season.
Miss Everhart's work In Evaleen
Stein's book Is simply exquisite, and
full of a subtle charm, almost Impossi
ble to describe. Her coloring Is deli
cate and beautiful and her figures full
of life, grace and action. Miss Ever
hart has achieved in this, her latest
work, an artistic triumph, such as
rarely comes-to Southern young wo
men.

The Day of Economy Has Actually Arrived and the

THE KING HARDWARE CO.'
TELL A GOOD STORY
It Appeals To All the People In General and Is No Re
specter of Financial Conditions.
The first day of August has dawned
very brightly upon Atlanta, and ac
cording to statistics some live thousand
more souls are today breathing the
pure, healthy atmosphere of the South’s
greatest city than did today twelve
months ago, and surely there Is not the
least doubt but what August, 1907, will
still And our population soaring some
where around the one hundred and
flfty thousand mark. Do you wonder?
Atlanta as she-sits grandly upon the
highest point In the state, fed gently
by all the breezes from the four cor
ners of the globe, inoculated by na
ture from all the dreaded diseases that
so often Infest some of our sister cities,
and then really do you wonder why we
grow? Why so many little fellows
some ten years ago are this, the first
day of August, 1906, GIANTS in the
commercial world. The answer Is
easy—quite easy—Atlanta has, and has
always had, a combination of business
men who thought more about the
growth of our city and the general wel
fare of her people than they did of a
few dollars and cents that could be
had by extortion. Don't think so, eh?
Well, let's see. For twenty years we
have been a part of Atlanta. We have
not only tried to succeed, but we have
accomplished our efforts. How? Doing
Just exactly what our advertisements
say we do, and naturally as follows,
one might aaK, how does that help the
great masses—It’s Just the same old
story of being overstocked and things
must be sold at cost, or even less. Well,
suppose that Is the case, one might say.
It Is simply a case of turning dead
stock into cash, and that doesn't help
anybody but .the overstocked merchant.
It don't, eh? Well, let's see. Million
aires count the per cent—that’s whera
the poor man forgets to count, and
that Is why you can count the million
aires upon your fingers—becausa
THEY SAW THE LITTLE THINGS.
For Inatance, you are a moderate wage
earner, and the old refrigerator you
have at home now will pass for the
remaining season, but a new one will
be a necessity next year. This Is Just
an example now, mind you. Today we
can sell you a first-class guaranteed
refrigerator for 215.00 that you could
not buy next spring for less than
120.00—a saving of 25 per cent. Isn't
that correct? If It works well In small
matters It surely works the same way
In larger matters. Suppose you had to
place an order for 210,000. the pro rata
saving would be more than most people
get for a year's work. Do you see the
point we would make? We are very
much overstocked on refrigerators, and
they will be Just as good next season,
but here Is where you get in. Save
some money today and let us help you.
We only sell the beat brands and you
put 25 per cent In your pocket by
buying now for next season. A mil
lionaire would do this. Why not you?

Mills and Morris, the minstrel maids,

attest to the popularity of this week's
show at the Casino.
