SUNDAY SCHOOL TEMPERANCE WORK
Some oue has said : ‘‘The {Sun
day Schools of today decides the
state of the church of tomorrow,
aud largely the destiny of the na
tion.” Believing in this work, a
Christian Temperance lady who
teaches a Sunday School class at
Wyatts Chapel in East Rome, has
been diligentlv and prayerfully
sowing seeds in young hearts,
which are already bearing fruit.
Wyate Chapman, during an at
tact of sickness refused to drink
wine which was prescribed for
him saying: ‘T promised Mrs.
McKenzie that I would never drink
anything that intoxicates and I
can not break my promise.’’
Who can estimate the value of
such teaching on the importance
of begining while young the foun
dation of right habits, Henry
Grady said “I have a boy as dear
to me as the ruddy drops that
gather about my heart. I look to
him to take up the work that strive
as I may will fall unfinished from
my hands. That boy may fall
from the right path as things now
exist but if I wore not to oppose
this liquor curse and he fall
through this agency I cuuld not
find answer to my con.cience or
support for my remorse.”
now a boy led his father.
Several years ago my brother
was in Springfield one cheerless
day, with about half an hour on
his hands before train time. Stroll
ing along near the depot he notic
ed a tidy resturaut, and went in
for a lunch. A bright boy came
to take his order, and as soon as
he brought it sat down to his les
sons. A respectable man evidutly
'the propritor was seated near the
fire with a disabled fcot propped
up in a chair. When my brother
had finished his meal he ap
proached him saying;
“You have a bright bey to wait
on your customers.”
“Yes, indeed,” said the man
with parental pride, “I couldn’t
hire so good a boy as that; he is
my son, and was the means of my
opening this place instead of keep
ing a drink shop which was the
way I got my living for some years
and I’ll tell you how it was, He
came from school one day heavv
hearted, and when I asked him
what was the matter he began to cry
but couldn’t speak. After I had
urged him he said that in recess
some of the boys asked each oth
er what their father did. One
said his father was a plumber;
another, that his was a carpenter:
and when they came to my boy,
who said his father kept a saloon
oae of them said that it was the
meanest kind of business; and I
could see they all felt the same
way.
That made me feel a .vfully asham
ed ; so, father if you only give up
the saloon I'll do anything I can s o
help you. With that he threw his
arms around my neck, and tubbing,
he begged me to give it up. Well
the end of it was I sold out. 14on‘t
make so much money as I did ge”ing
liquor?, but it goes farther, and we
have a happ? home; my v r e can
help along, because decent people
come here for their meals, but before
I did not like to have her r round,
there was so much low talk. My boy
has been as good his word. I
couldn't ask for a bettor son.“
My brother thanked Pie man .or
his confidence, aud after givmg his
hearty approval went his’way.—John
Billings in the L’t’’e Chi.stian.
o
HIS WIFE.
£he sewed the buttons on his coat with mu .-e
--lous rapidity,
And took the spots from off his clother with
pleasureable avli’L . |
She creased his trousers ere.y day till they
were no more er- '..sable,
And when he growled her patient smile was
something more than p able,
She cleaned his russett shoes for him, with
joy quite unmistakable.
And took his cuffs and collars out—that is'
when they were Likeable,
She put his money in the banl. with such great
regularity , ,
That other women viewed her drees with eye
that looked de'parity.
When he got blue she braced Jhim up, and
gave him something drinkable,
And talked about that ship of his that was’
she said, unsinkable.
She let him buyjhis own cigars, iwlth tact
quite incontestable,
And thought up dishes that he liked thad
were not quite indigestible.
She listened to the jokes he (sprung and (gig
gled at the best of them,
And when she couldn’t giggle >he approved
r. of all the rest of them.
She did not drag nim off to call when he wa g
quite undragable,
Aaid wnen he had a nervous tit her tongue was
quite unwagable.
She brushed him up, she brushed him down,
and kept bin spick and spanable,
And showed him why the schemes he planed
were not always quite planable.
But she had no ear for .music, and Ler mind
was quite unboobable \
And when it came to beauty, why she wasn’t
very lookable.
She lid not care to go out much, She was not
in society.
She had no time for heathens, and she could
not talk of piety.
An every neighbor said of him with laughter
quite satirical:
“How did he come to marry her? It reaily is
a mirical.”

A Business Han
Wants to know the truth, the whole truth. an 4
nothing trut the truth. And he wants that
truth boiled down.
He has no time to waste In skimming about
the edges of a subject, he wants to get at the
gist of the whole matter, arid does not care
for a hundred pages of opinions If he can get
It all in a hundred lines of solid facts.
That is to say he wants the Encyclopedia
Britannica, for no other work will so
completely meet the busy man's needs. It
has Justlv been called "the knowledge of th.3
whole world compressed into five feet of
book shelf.”
Another Characteristic
Os the business man Is that he has an eye on
the dollars. If his good judgment enables
him to detect the actual merit of a project
before his neighbors get Into line he " gets
in on the bottom floor." while his iess shrewd
neighbor wajts until all the world wants it
and then he finds “ the stock* have gone up."
It Is this characteristic of Georgia business
men that is leading them so generally to
procure the Encyclopedia Britannica while It
may be had at Introductory rates. A thorough
business man sees how the Britannica
publishers can afford to permit a great paper
like The Atlanta Constitution to
offer their up-to-date edition at Introductory
prices for a short time until the public
generally has become familiar with Its
surpassing merits. Then all will want It.
aqd they will have to pay the publishers'
regular price ; whtie the man who was shrewd
enough to purchase during the Introductory
period has saved just St.oo per volume on
the price of the work.
