What this laity fails to understand
Is that the virtue of obedience In
woman is estimated by the masculine
sex as far and away higher than any
fancied responsibility to a power high
er than that of her mate.
The danger of these uppish notions
that are possessing the minds of wo
mankind In modern days Is just here.
They ari utterly failing to realize that
responsibility for their Immortal souls
rests with their husbands; or In de

male relative.
There can be little doubt that even
the most vice-ridden man in creatloh
Is able ami willing to give direction
to the conduct of his women. With
one sex so ready to defray the whole
expense of salvation for the other,
why should the spirit of women be
restless and disquieted? We leave the
answer to those who so sturdily main
tain that every home must have a

To obey or not to obey? That is
the question. Women must decide be

. NELLIE’S HERO.
(By Virginia Vale.)
Oiirt upon a time Nellie's moth
er had a lptter from Aunt Alice
unking them nil to come to her
ru w cottage and spend a few days.
Tlie cottage was near the ocean,
almost on the, beach, and Nellie
thought It the loveliest {dace she
had ever been In.
The first day she played near
the house, but she soon grew used
to the big waves nnd went down
on the beach to pick up the pretty
stories ami pink shells that she
saw.
One day she thought she would
go on the heoch and see If she
could not find some shells to bring
to her mother to take home. There
was no one but Nellie on that part
of Hie beach as she wandered up
and down.
‘ I guess 1 will walk out a little
further ami perhaps I can find
just what l want,” said Nellie, so
she walked along snd looked at
the pretty fish that were swimming
around in the water between two
big rocks. She hud her apron full
of stones and shells, but she kept
nti walking further out. All at
once a big wav© came with such
force that It knocked little Nellie
down ami started to carry her out
to sen.
Nellie acreamrd with fright, but
there wan no one around and Nel
lie* waa being carried further out
all the time.
AH at once she uw a big, black
dog running as fast na it could

took hold of her with Ids
teeth. While Nellie held on to Ills
back he swum back to the shore
with her Nellie hugged and pat
ted him as hard as she could, but
lie looked up as much na to say:
"That's all right. I am glad I
heard you cry.’*
Nellie took hold of his collar
and she went back to the cottage
to tell lor mother all about her
fright. Aunt Alice and her mother
patted him. kr\> him a nice dinner
and called him a nice hero. When
Nellie's father was told about It
he wanted to buy the clog which be

THE JUMPING JACK.
A little wooden jumping jack httnu
in a shop window; a string was tied
about hi h neck and his arms hung
quite limp, but It anyone had pulled
the string that \v»s at the end of his
spine they would soon have dis
eretl that he was not so meek as he
looked.
Now this Is exactly what Jack'
wished woultl happen, for in the cen
ter of the window fitting him was a
lady doll who wore the most bewitch
ing little poke bonnet, and front un
der It Jack eotihl see a pair of bright
eyes, but they seemed never to look at
him.
If only some one would pull the
string that moved his legs and arms
he knew he not only would attract
her attention, hut he would Jump and
perform as never before, and he was
sure he could win her admiration.
On her bonnet were the tiniest rose
buds, and Jack had named her. in his
little wooden heart. Host*. Hose wore
a dress of pink silk, and on livj; arm
she carried a box filled with pins;
this he had learned from a parrot that
sat on a swing near him.
"Hut she will never notice you," the
parrot had told him when he euught
lack looking al Hose one day with
loving looks; "she. Is very proud, and
she suys she is l'ppneh, whatever that
Is," anld the parrot.
Hut no one pulled the string and
Jack had no opportunity of displaying
Ills agility and testing Rose’s regard
for hint. an*l there came a day when
the shopkeeper took Rose front the
window and wrapped her In a piece of
paper and she was carried away by
a pretty lady
Poor Jack hung more limp than
ever, and he thought his little wooden
heart was broken, but the parrot told
him to cheer up; “there are plenty
more dolls In the world, and those
more suitable for you to love than that
French creature."
Hut Jack did not think so. and
while he tried to look as though he

had forgotten Rose, he dreamed of
her ut night and In the daytime ha
looked with a sad heart toward the
place where she had sat
And then something happened; ;a
lady with a little boy came into the
shop and bought Jumping Jack.
He was carried to big house and
put In a room with many other toys
There ware many animals and a Teddy
hear, hut not a doll was to h« seen,
and although Jack Jumped high and
fast at first after a while he grew
tired and wished for the window again
and the parrot, to whom he could talk
of Rose
“If there was a doll of any sort
here." thought Jack, ''lt would he bet
ter than this, for 1 am sure l was
made to lie loved, and I want some
one to admire me."
One day the little hoy took Jack
out of the room and downstairs. He
went to the door of a room and look
ed In "There Isn't anyone here," he
told Jack. "Muvver is out. and we'll
go In nnd look out the window. There
Is a little gtrl In the window opposite,
and she will laugh when 1 make you
Jump for her.'*
THE AUGUSTS Hl-TALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
INDOOR SPORTS * By Tad
The little boy knocked on the win
dow and the little girl looked at him
and laughed, and when he made Jack
jump and kick she danced up and
down with delight. Suddenly, Jack
saw something that made his little
wooden heart jump, as well as his
legs and arms, and then it seemed to
stand still, for on the dressing table
stood Rose, and from under the little
bonnet she was looking at him with
admiration as he Jumped about.
And didn’t he jump; the little boy
thought he was making Jack do all
sorts of tricks, but it was Jack him
self who did more (-alters than he ever
had done in all his life.
By nnd by a nurse took the little
girl away, and the little boy grew tired
of Jack and went out of the room leav
ing Jack on the windowsill, danger
ously near the edge.
Soon a heavy team passing jarred
the house, and off he went, sliding
down the wall nnd landing’ on the
floor on his side, with his back rest
ing against the wall. And there was
After Tom had talked to Jennie
ab out being out late with the two
women acquaintances, and had left
Jennie crying in another room, he, sat
in a chair with hla head in his hands,
thinking and thinking and wondering
If his little home was going to break
up as so many others have. Presently
he felt two arms steal softly around
his neck, a cheek pressed against his
and a voice say. "Ikin't he angry with
me, Tom. 1 guess 1 was .wrong, and
hereafter I'll try and do what you
wish. The only reason I went out was
because I got so lonesome sitting here
alone all day. hut hereafter I'm going

and try to keep busy so I won't get
lonesome "

Rose right in the room, and he
couldn’t see her. “If some one would
only put me up on the table beside
her," thought Jack.
“What is that," he said to himself,
as something came toward him, and
quick as a. flash ran up the table leg.
In a second, the cat came In and jump
ed to the top of the table.
There was a rattling of silver and
something fell beside Jack. He saw
the cat run out with something in her
mouth, and then he looked to see what
had fallen, and right beside him was
Rose with her bright eyes looking into
his and her little red mouth close be
side his face.
Jack thought he mipit be dreaming,
as she asked in a very low voice, “have
I not seen you somewhere before?"
And then Jack told her how he had
always loved her even In the old days
in the shop window, and that it almost
broke his little wooden heart when
she went away; and while Rose had
always thought she should like a sail
or boy for her husband, she knew
sailors were fickle, and she was wise
enough to know’ also that Jack loved
her with all the honest love of his lit
tle wooden heart, and such love was
not to be despised, so she smiled and
Jack knew he at last had won the
little French doll’s heart.

MOTIONS FOR NEW TRIALS
DENIED BY JUDGE WALKER
Verdicts For Gilbert and H. L.
Radford Against Georgia
Railroad Stand.
Information received here today is
to the effect that Judge B. F. Walker
of the Toombs circuit has denied mo
tions for new trials in the cases of
H. L. Radford vs. the Georgia Rail
road and Banking Company, in which
a verdict for $4,8Q0 was awarded the
plaintiff on the second trial, and Gil
bert versus the Atlantic Coast Bine
and Louisville and Nashville Rail
ways. lessees of the Georgia Railroad,
verdict, SB,OOO.
Both suits were for personal dam
ages, the plaintiff alleging that they
had received injuries through the
fault or negligence of the defendant
companies. The denial of a new trial
in either case thus winds up the liti
gation and the court’s decisions re
main against the railway companies.
The prosecuting attorneys were E.
R. Hill, Sidney Smith, D. G. McGreg
or and Edmond Shirley, while the
railways were represented by Jos. &
Bryan Cumming, assisted by E. A.
Davis.
