President j Mr. Phil ips, Treasurer Will McWilliams .Secretary S Mary McKenzie, 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.” —Brooklyn Life. Busmess Men Want ‘ < Accuracy Completeness Conciseness Convenience CRIT»NMpf 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.
