A fleA for ola naA,ds.

The mere fact of Q woman not hav-
ing found q partner in life places her at
once at a certain disadvantage In the
estimation of the world. If o man re
mains single, 1t Is "because he prefers
it;' but who would seriously believe
the lady who gave the same reason for
not having been married. Conse-
quently she rarely ventures upon such
an assertion. No; she is siDgle-be-
cause she could not help herself. And
henceforth she is accredited with all
the weakness and eccentricities of old
maidism. A married woman may like
cats and parrots without criticism; if a
single woman makes a pet of either OF
these animals it is because she is an
old maid. Should spinster by chance
not care about pets it is held that, he.
ing spinster, she ought to do SO. Il
q mother carries a small bag in hel
hands when out walking, it is nothing
more nor less than bag carried tol
convenience or fashions sake.
In the old maids hands the same ar
ticle becomes reticule-the spinster' e
badge. When Mrs. Somebody is or.
derby in her house and tidy in her per
son, If an observation on the subject
Is made at all, 1t is as follows: why
Iyou are as neat as an old maid" re.
sproachful compliment paid to the
miss: No one, of course, denies thai
there is such thing as old-maidism

better), to which some women are
evidently born, as some are also driven
into it. But as the tastes and habits o.
married women differ, SO likewise dc
those of single women. 1t is, there
fore, rather unjust to label every lone
woman with the badge which she may
be inclined herself to ridicule in others.
And If such a one be of a sensitive ma
ture, she would greatly appreciate the
privilege of being able to keep the
world in ignorance of her real position
especially, perhaps, when travelling
by not being compelled to reveal it.

shortness of Time In Dreams

One of the most remarkable phe
nomena connected with dreams is the
shortness of time needed for their con
summation. Lord Brougham says thai
in debating man may frequently fal
asleep after uttering few words, and
be awakened by the amanuensis re-
peating the last word to show that he
has written the whole; but though five
or six seconds only have elapsed be
tween the delivery of the sentence and
its transfer to paper, the sleeper may
have passed through a dream extond-
ling through half lifetime. Lord
Holland and Mr.. Babbage both con,
firm this theory. The one was listen
ing to a friend reading aloud, and
slept from the beginning of the SEN
tence to the latter part of the sentence
Immediately succeeding; yet, during
this time he had dream, the particu
lars of which would have taken more
than quarter of an hour to write
Mr.. Babbage dreamed succession o
events, and woke in time to hear the
concluding words of a friends answer
to question he had just put 10 him
One man was liable to feelings OF suf
location, accompanied by dream Of q
skeleton grasping his throat whenever
he slept in lying posture, and had an
attendant to wake him the moment ht
sank down. But, though awakened
the moment he began to sink, tina
time sufliced for long struggle will
the skeleton. Another man dreamed
that he crossed the Atlantic, spent Z,
fortnight in America, and fell over
board when embarking to return; ye
his sleep had not lasted more than ter
minutes.

n Good Illustration.


A Marietta, Ca, correspondent
writes to the Atlanta Constitution"
the following: Cobb Superior Court
met here last Monday, Judge Joel
Branham of Rome presiding. Judge
Brown was disqualified from presiding.
Judge Branham has won many golden
opinions from our people by the inn
partial charges to the juries and his
Just but lenient sentences.
The charge OF Judge Bronham to
the grand jury was strikingly torcible,
and particularly so in eXpounGing the
duties Of working the public roads. In
regard to breaking up the practice of
carrying concealed weapons, he gave
an illustration that came under his
observation while practicing attorney
in Rome.
He had clerk in his Office who was
in the habit of carrying a derringer
pistol in each of his vest pockets. This
he tried to persuade him not to do, but
he was persistent in his purpose A
client made remark to the clerk after
he (Branham) had lost his case that he
made no effort TO do his duty in the
matter. On accosting the client about
it he denied making the statement
The clerk and the client and Judge
Branham all met in the law office,
when the clerk wanted to know of the
client If he denied making the afore.
said remark. The client emphatically
denied it, when the clerk, who was
seated at the table writing, looked UP
and simply remarked: "You have
lied, that's ALL" The client, who was
a large, muscular fellow, picked up the
tongs and was intending to brain the
clerk, when the aforesaid clerk placed
his fingers in his vest pocket and pulled
out derringer, and, without getting
up from his seat, rested his hand on
the table and exclaimed "You put
down those tongsr' The man very
prudently put down the tongs. When
| he had left the clerk said to Judge
| Branham; "You have always in.
sisted that / should not carry pistol
as would have no need of it. Now,
suppose that had not had that weap-
on that fellow would have killed me
with those tongs." mot at all prob
able" replied Judge Branham.
"Whyr Intercepted the surprised
clerk. Because" replied Judge
Branham, ''if you had been without
pistol you would not have called the
fellow liar" This was u revelation
to the clerk, and he abandoned tho
practice of carrying concealed weap
