THE SEEKER.
Poverty askei “Will it cost too much?”
Mammon asked “Will it pay?”
And Scholarship “Is the measure wise,
And are you sure of the way”
“Can we find the time
To finish before the night?”
But when the Seeker had heard them
all
He only asked "Is it right?”
Poverty said “I cannot help.
For my pockets are not filled."
Mammon said “That land must wait
Till my own broad fields are tilled.”
Scholarship, “If I lend a hand
Too much, I fear, 1 shall miss;”
And Statesmanship, “There are other
things
Of as large import as this.”
But the Seeker, poor and of little
power,
All untried and untaught,
Bearing only the knowledge proud
That his heart could not be bought.
Turned his face to a rugged path
Far from the world's delight.
And only said, "Come life, come death,
Profit or loss, I fight!”
—Marguerite Ogden Bigelow, in The
Congregationalist.

BEAUTIFUL MARRIAGE OF
MISS MULKEY AND MR. BRYSON.
Marked by an unusual and very di--
tinctive beauty was the marriage of
Miss Katherine Mulkey and Mr. Ed
ward Bryson, which took place at sev
en o’clock this morning at Broadway
Methodist Church, in the presence of
a large congregation of interested
friends. The church decorations were
very lovely, with slender reed-like
palms, amid which were caught gar
lands of delicate white tulle ending in
fluffy bows that were like giant, but
terflies, delicate ferns and hundreds of
starry eyed shasta daisies.
Miss Marsden, of St. John's Church,
presided at the organ and
the entrance of the bridal party witi
the opening notes of the bridal chorug
from Lohengrinn. First came the ush
ers, Dr. Edward Clark, with Mr. Foster
Seago, who were followed by the maid
of honor. Miss Anna Quillian, of Col
lege Park, Atlanta, with Dr. Richard
Calhoun, who directly preceded the
bride and groom, who entered together.
The bride wore a very becoming
and stylish going-away-gown of blue
cloth, tailored and worn with a chiffon
blouse and a smart black hat with blue
trimmings, and carried an armful of
bride roses.

Miss Quillian wore a beautiful gown
of soft white crepe and embroidered
net with a Leghorn hat with pink
trimmings. This lovely toilette was
completed by her flowers, an armful of
pink Killarney roses.
The ceremony was impressively per
formed by Rev. H. M Quillian, of Col
lege Park, the old pastor of the bride.
All during the ceremony the “Medita
tion,” from Thais, was softly and
sweetly rendered, and the bridal party
retired from the church to the stirring
strains of Mendelssohn's wedding
march.
Immediately after the ceremony the
bride and groom left on the Georgia

spend the next two weeks touring the

PARIS' FASHION
COPYING HABIT
M. Paul Poiret, Famous
Creator of French Fashions,
Wants it Stopped.
Paris. M. Paul Poiret, the famous
creator of French fashions has struck
a note of warning wlrch is calculated to
send the good modistes of the Rile dc L»
Patx into violent h stcries. Wholesale
priraey exists, he declares, and unless
something is done to stop it there will
he great dressmakers left in Paris in
ten years. Really this is too terrible
to contemplate.
"I am taking steps to form n commu
te® of the chief dressmaking houses of
Paris,” says M. Pei -1 do not want
the number to he large about seven in
all. \\ <* shall concert our action to
wards putting an end to the abuse by
which at present almost every Idea
which we evolve, every new model which
wc create, is seized on .and reproduced
by insufficient copiers who caricature
ami degrade it.
Try "o Prevent. A
“We shall try to prevent photograph
ers from selling the pictures of new
fashions which they take at the races
aim elsewhere to obscure dressmakers,
who attempt to imitate them. We want
to prevent newspapers from bringing out
fashion supplements in which our ex
clusive ideas are scattered broadcast to
the world.
“Against copiers we shall take con
certed action. I have a list of sltxy
dressmakers in Paris who are in the
habit of reproducing our models. Some
of them obtain orders from houses that
deal also with us. These customers buy
a new model from us and then send it
to the copier, with an order for a dozen
more like it. Those customers we shall
exclude from our hooks We shall also
probably refuse to deal with the cloth
and silk merchants who supply the copy
ing dressmakers with their materials.
“At present our only resource is to
create new models continually. One de
signs a new fashion one day. and a fort
night later it is necessary to produce
another model, for the first has already
been degraded by travesty.”

Superintendent Emmet Warm
ly Commends Metropolitan
Company.
The report of the New York Plate He
partment of Insurance on tho triennial
examination of the Metropolitan l,lfc- in
flurance Company haw Just been pub
lished by the .state. Under the law, re
vised by Governor I lurches, this exam
ination must be made every three years.
About twenty examiners of the Insur
ance department devoted nearly a year
to the work, and Mr. Knimet, as super
intendent of the department, wrote an
extended review of the report. In this
review Commissioner Emmet not only
made an analysis of the company’s con
dition as a- business corporation, hut of
Its activities along the broader lines of
social service among Industrial workers
health education and the conservation
of human life. He points out that the
company, now having more than thir
teen million policies outstanding, has,
assumed such proportions that It is
practically brought into Immediate con
tart with approximately one-eighth of
the population of the United States.
Here are extracts from Superintendent
Emmet’s report:
"The fact is, the history and achieve

“The fact that the percentage of lapses

effect. This last mentioned development
is perhaps the most convincing evidence
which could he* offered that the com
