The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1892-01-17

But this is apretty good picture Of a type OF
woman that goes 10 make the world up, the
sO-callei fashionable world. If had a son,
would rather he would go 70 firss-class
gambling house. play his game and lose his
money than take TO visiting at a house
where "a little game" is always IN order,
and the hostess Is an extremely pretty
woman. Nine times out of ten she doesn't
play herself: Just hovers around the man
who is brought there to lose his money, and
distractS him so that he doesn't know what
be is doing. This distraction does not await
him IN a professional gambling house, and
for that reason your boy is safer there than
he is in such house as the Gates.
"THE SWEETS OF ADVERSELY"
Did it ever dawn on you what a consum-
mate fraud Shakespeare was' How cou la
he ever sit down aud write sweet are the
uses of adversityp The uses II adversely
are not sweet at all. Adversely has driven
more men t. the mad house and more
women TO the devil than anything in the
world Bread aud cheese and kisses are
| good for awhile, but the bread begins to be
| tasteless without butter, the cheese grows
moldy, while a constant diet Of kisses
does pail on me- l would be willing to
! bet anything in the world that Mrs.
| Shakespeare didn's think the uses of adj
versity were sweet. / would be willing to
affirm q never swear that she got deadly
tired Of bread and cheese, and lOugei for a
| partridge a salad, a glass of burgundy. a
mouthful of something sweet, then of course,
she might have been glad to have the kisses.

amount of respect for men who work them

Bah GOES FOR SHAKESPEARE.
think it is in the power OF every man
who has got even half of a brain, to get
rich if he wants to- What is there en-
nobling in seeing your children want for
things that other peoples children havel
| What is there ennobling in wishing for
books to improve yourself. in comforts to
make yourself stronger, and in all the beau

say it with intense emphasis, and with two
lines under it, that ''he was an absolute

versity being sweet. If he liked it, it is a
pity he didn't live forever and enjoy it; no.

MISFORTUNE OF BEING POOR.
In q play now being presented in New
| York, the rich man asks the wOrkngmen
not TO strike because of his daughter, and
| there she stands beside him, sweet~faced
| gentle hammered and refined. 0ae of the
men who is asking for more wages throws
open a door leading into the mill, and calls
| to his daughter. She comes out, delicate
| ill-clad, graspiug for breath, with a head
ache that never ends, aud asks with fear if
she is going to be discharged and the man
says: "Lcok at my daughter; must care
| for her." And then you remember that this
is labor and capital facing each other in the
form Of two women. ] am not upholding
the so-called shouting labor man. | am Just
saying in my own way that it is not nice to
be poor.
WHEN YOU HAVEN'T THE MONEY.
1t is your girl who is sick and delicate, and
of whom the doctor says she must be sent
where it is warmer, and you haven't the
money to send her. How do you like the
| uses of adversely!
1t is your boy who has gone through ell
the free schools, and whose great desire it is
to go to college, that he may become a great
man some day. and you haven't the money
to send him. How do you like the uses Of
adversely!
1t is your wife, who, after the days work
| is done. is mending over the old clothes,
freshening up the best ones and trying to
see what may be turned. so that the girls
will not q ashamed to 60 among their
friends. You think how well she would
look in new gown; you remember how
pretty she was before tue cares Of daily life
made the wrinkles come on her face, and
you wish, how you wish, that you could get
her fine warm coat for the winter days,
but you haven't the money. How do you
like the uses Of adversely
1t is your baby sick, weak, crying maxi
ing pitiful moan because it does not have
the proper food. Before it was born its
mother was not well-nourished and cared
for; you hadn't the money to do it. How
do you like the use Of adversely?
Get thee gone, viii Shakespeare; roam
over the country, half beggar. half vaga-
bond, 1t sounded pretty to write that line,
but you never wrote greater lie. l have
no respect for you, and if your ghost or
yourself stood before me, | should still say
"the fool speaketh of what he kuoweth
not" Heresy? Probably. But when see
what poverty is, then know that am not
orthodox, and l am not afraid to sign my
belief with your name in full 1t is not q
long name; it is Bah.
