A Delightful and Unique Entertainment,
Reported for the Democratic Advocate.

We had the good fortune to be present at
n delightful and unique entertainment on
Friday afternoon of last week in Mrs IL. NJ.
Clabaugh's pretty parlor on Green street.
The entertainment opened at o'clock and
consisted of instrumental and vocal music
and recitations by seven charming little
fairies. Where all acquitted themselves so
remarkably well it would be impossible to say
any one excelled. 1t was a lovely scene to
see their happy little faces wreathed with
smiles, their sparkling eyes, pretty dresses
and many colored sashes. Only two young
gentlemen were present, Master Lawrence
Reifsnider, who recited Il pretty poem in a
very dignilied manner, and Master Dan Rob-
erts, who was usher and conducted himself
in very stately way. He seemed fully i'm
pressed with the dignity of his position. AT
the conclusion of the entertainment he in
formed the little performers, with a very
patronizing air, they had 'done right vel"
Misses Tess Buckingham and Helen Clabaugh
were encored three times. Their duet was
certainly very amusing and well acted and
sung. Miss Marion Yanderford's German
song was encored twice. She sang very
sweety and did full justice to the sweet Ger
man accent. AT the close Of the entertain
ment Mrs. Clabaugh invited the little ones TO
partake of ice cream and cake, which they
enjoyed beyond expression. MISS Anne
Shriver deserves u vote of thanks for the
admirable manner in which she trained the
youthful performers and hope in the near
future she will favor us with similar enter
tainmeut.
Following is the program rendered:

The exchange editor, with all his
virtues, is not infallible, and it is sur
prising to see how he will sometimes
snap up an aged paragraph as though
it had seen the light of day only a
week before. An odd experience,
tending to prove that there is moth
ing new under the sun, was that of
well-known syndicate letter-writer,
who discovered some years ago 10 an
out-ot-the-way place, an explanation
of the original Of the term Uncle
Sam" The source Of his information
was so obscure that ne felt almost as
though he had originated tho explana-
ton himself; aud he proceeded to send
it out into the world over his sigma
ture. 1t was picked up by the ex-
change editors and spread like Wild
fire all over the country. Probably
every newspaper in the United States
with circulation of 10000 or more
printed that article. Sometime after
ward, looking through the appendix to
Webster's dictionary. the correspond
ent who had written the article came
upon n dissertation upon the origin of
"Uucle SAM exactly like the one
which he had appropriated and had
thought so new" He did not en-
tighten the exchange editors; and.
for all know. they are still placing
the article to his credit.
Another experience of the same
writer was with a story of Chief Justice
Marshall. Some public man repeated
1t to him as new. According to this
story, Marshall who was always a
slouchy man, was walking down the
street one day, when he was accosted
by a stranger, who said to him: See
here, old man, | wish you would carry
this chicken down to my house The
chief justice gravely took the chicken
and walked down the street with it to
the house which the man had indicated.
When the stranger arrived he offered
Mr.. Marshall piece OF money. which
was accepted aud pocketed II was a
long time afterward that tho man
learned that he had paid the chief
justice of the United States for carry
ing his chicken. The writer thought
this story very good one. and he
elaborated IL in one of his letters.

phe works OF o good man live after him. He
enjoys the blessings andsdistinctions they enti-
tie him TO in this world, and build for him a
home IN eternity. 1t is the mission OF every
living soul to do some good to benefit human
ity IN some way. Notwithstanding this fact,
how few look upon life In this manner
a few now and then, here and there, realize
this great responsibility, and devote their lives
to the salvation Of their fellow men. Ono Of the
most conspicuous examples Of this character in
Atlanta is Dr. b. NJ Wooley. He o man noted
for his Christian integrity and fair dealing, be-
ing an old and highly esteemed citizen OF At

his home folks as o specialist in the cure Of the
opium and whisky habits that is Of the highest
character, Although he has had years Of oxpe-
rienco in the treatment OF these dreadful dis
eases, hei yet an ardent student, and studies
the science Of his profession with as much dill
igence as II he were only just entering the pro-
fesslon.
DR.. Woolley, unlike q great many specialists,
treats what is called the opium and whisky
habits as o disease, affirming that they are
strictly Diseases and nine times out OF ten the
sufferers are not direetly'responsiblo for their
condition. The success he has had in this line
has been something phenomenal. He has cured
patients in every state and territory In the
Union, and has treated cases in London, France
Germany, Canada and Mexico.
Opium and whisky are two OF the most power
full, and when improperly used. the most ife-
destroying medicines IN the world and 70 know

Something New in Pete.

A well-known author Is responsible
for this amazing tale: Il was going
downtown not long since when my at
tention was rlveted by figure on the
opposite side of the car. 1t was a
negro girl Of about 13. She was as
black as coal. and gorgeously arrayed
in bright red cashmere, short enough
to display red stockings and scarlet
kid slippers. On her short, crisp curls
rested fez. and scarf OF the Same
iorrid hue was folded about her shout
ders. Her big eyes rolled about in
delight, both at her costume and the
notice she invited. just beside her
sat a quietly dressed and reiined-look-
ing young lady. l was so curious
about this pretty and fancifully at
tired young negress that at last
leaned over and spoke to her. You
can fancy my astonishment when the
young lady leaned over and said to me:
"'She can't speak English yet She
is from Cuba
