Miss Lee Hardy loved an open air life
she early became his chief companion on
his plantation, though native Of
Charleston. She married her second
cousin, Mr.. j. d. Hardy, son of Cap
tain L. G. Hardy, U. S. N, and they re-
sided in Galveston till 1879.
There she began to contribute to the
press, and her article on Christmas Be-
fore the War" attracted much attention.
After brief residence in Houston they
removed to New York city. Her his
tory of the German colony in Texas
caused her election as a member of the
American Historical association. She
is also member of Sorosis. Her poetry
is Of the sentimental order, dealing al
most entirely with the affections as
illustrated in her lines Of rejoicing en-
titled my Boy" After an exquisite
detail of the toys and garments seen in
a dream and presented to her in casket
by cupids she tells Of finding in the
casket being Of this sort:
Oh. his skin was like pearl and his eyes dark
ly brown,
While his lips seemed with strawberries fed.
His soft hair loosely curled and Ike vine ten
drills chung,
But the shade-would you think itf-was red.
Yet his smile was so sweet my heart melted
with love,
And called him my life and my pride,
While Graded him soft In my covetous arms
And nestled him close by my side.

his home in Chautauqua county, N. Y,

Money Was No Object.

The circumstance is worth recording,
in connection with the refusal of Mr..
Andrew Lang and Mr.. j. N. Barrie to
undertake lecturing tour in America,
that not 80 long ago repeated Overtures
were presented to the three most widely
known Englishmen of the century, re-
questing them to address audiences in
the principal cities of the United States.
1t is some years now since Mr.. Gladstone
defnitively relinquished the thought Of
crossing the Atlantic, and long before
the decease of Charles Haddon Sturgeon
and of Lord Tennyson-to both of whom
requests were at one time somewhat per-
sistent-the invitations had ceased.

American Ministers in London.

American ministers seem TO be getting
very popular in London. DR.. Pierson is
fully installed at the Metropolitan tab
ernacle, and now DR.. Pentecost has ac-
cepted an invitation to occupy for time
at least the pulpit of the Marylebone
Presbyterian church. DIR. Pentecost is
a Congregationalist, and it is not i'm
probable that he may consent to be the
permanent successor Of DR.. Donald

Besides DIR. w. G. Young, the presi-
dent of Center college and the modera-
tor of the general assembly, who opened
one session with prayer, there have been
many we'll known clergymen present
besides those composing the court, and
the laymen and lay women have also
shown lively interest in the proceed
ings. The galleries are filled at each
session, but SO far there has been little
attempt "to speak to the galleries" the
members combining their remarks to the
members of the court. As it is a judi
cial case that is under consideration, the
moderator insists that there shall be no
applause. One afternoon the venerable
Charles Butler, the president Of the
board of directors Of the seminary, en-
tered the church and sat in the seat di-
rectly behind DIR. Briggs, whose inau-
gural address was delivered upon his
transference from the Hebrew chair to
the chair of Biblical theology founded
by Mr.. Butler,
DR.. John @. Bliss, the moderator Of
the presbytery, is making strenuous
effort to keep the brethren to their texts,
but it is difficult for him, even with his
gavel in hand, to suppress great deal
of discussion that would apparently bet
ter be left unsaid. If he errs, it is in his
earnest desire TO give fair play to both
sides, and to prevent, if possible, deci-
sion which shall result in an exception
being taken or complaint on appeal be-
ing made.

THEY WRITE POETRY
TO THE PUBLIC, HOWEVER, THEIR
LlMPID PROSE is MOST FAMILIAR.

Mrs. Edith Sessions Topper and Mrs. Lee
G. Hardy Represent the Far North and
the Very Sunny South, but Both Are
Truly American.
Poetry is confined to no cline and to
no race, though some peoples are gifted
far above others, and it Is one of the
pleasing facts to all Americans that their
poets today represent every section of
the nation. For an illustration let two
ladies be taken-one Of Jewish blood and
far southern birth and rearing, the other
of old Puritan stock, born and reared
near the Canada line. Mrs. Lee @. Hardy
is thoroughly southern and Mrs. Edith
Sessions Upper quite as thoroughly
northern in origin, feeling and edaca-
ton, yet both are now the pride of New
York, and their fame is truly national.
Mrs. Harby's father was Marx e. Co
hen, a graduate Of the University of
Glasgow, who married Miss Armida
Hardy, of family distinguished in the
history and literature of South Carolina.
They became the parents Of one son and
five daughters. The son lost his life in
the Confederate army, and the fathers
domestic tastes led him to be the con-

TWO PATIENTS IN A plsPENsARY.

A Small Newsboy and q Big Fireman

Late one evening man was seated In
the receiving room Of one Of the dispen-
saries In the lower part of the city. He
was talking to young surgeon who had
charge of the room, and the CONVERSE

shown by young folks as compared with
that of adults.

BE UP AND DOING.

Every man is the architect of his
own fortune. Any man who thinks
that any political party by being in
power, can fill his pockets with
money, will die a Lauper, if he waits
for the party to do i. Lite is real,
life is earnest, and only by constant t.,
Industrious labor, good management,
frugal and economical living, and
sober habits, can he expect to
succeed, and keep out of debt and
amass competency. The JOURNAL
believes that the world is what we
make it, socially, morally and finan.
cially. What ever a man sows he
will reap If a man will rely more
upon his individual efforts, trusting
in God for guidance, wisdom and
blessings, doing the best be can un>
der all circumstances, he will make
life success but if he puts mis-
trusts, in parties, politicians, dema-
gogues, cranks and office seekers
out of job, he is going to beleft in
a deplorable condition aud sadly dis.
appointed.
Every man should take a proper
amount of interest in politics to vote
and advocate honest measures and
seek to elect honest men to office,
but if he relies on the expectancy OF
tavors from Office holders or the gov
eminent, he will make woeful mis-
take. The government can do no
more than to see that every man
and his family are protected in the
enjoyment of personal liberty, pri>
vale property, and life-that one
man does no harm to his neighbor,
and that all are given an equal
chance to work out their happiness
and peace, free from molestation or
hindrance. In life's battle, fortune
and plenty comes not to the laggard
or the lazy, out to the hustler, ener-
getic and industrious. Every man
who succeeded in getting a land lot
in the Cherokee Strip" had to
hustle and outrun lis less fortunate
brother, as well undergo hardships
and deprivations that made the prize

the prizes of lite-they are won by

Starve your temper.

Starve your temper. Give it
nothing to feed on. When some.
thing tempts you to grow angry, do
not yield to the temptation. 1t may
be tor minute or two difficult to
control yourself, but try 1t. Force
yourself to do nothing--to say moth
ing, and the rising member will be
forced to go down because it has
nothing to hold it up. The person
who can and does control tongue,
hand and heart in the face OF great
provoacation, is a hero. What is
gained by yielding to temper? For
a moment there is feeling ofrelief;
but soon there comes a sense OF sor
row and shame, with wish that the
temper had been controlled. Friends
are separated by bad temper, trou-
BILE is caused by it, and pain is given
to others as we'll as self. An out.
burst of temper is like the explosion
of a steam boiler it is impossible to
tell before what will be the result.

GROWING NEW EYES.

A remarkable story is told of
John Bahler, of Battle Creek, Mich.
Thirty.two years ago he became
totally blind. AS his useless eye>
balls became diseased they were re-
moved; and tor ten years he wore
glass eyes. but finally discarded
them, and covered his sightless
sockets with a pair Of smoked glass
goggles. A year ago he was sitting
with his wife ons evening, be sud-
denly thought that he perceived a
light, and asked his wife what was
that, pointing in the direction where
he seemed to see something. She
replied that it was lamp. On ex-
animation it vas found that small
eyeballs were growing on the ends
of the optic nerves that were left
exposed when his eyes were remov%
ed. Since that time his sight he's
gradually improved, and from being
able to catch a sensation of light, he
is able in good light to distinguish
strong colors. 1t is said that he has
been examined by physicians, who
declare that there is no doubt about
the formation of new cyeballs, but
say that they never heard of such
another case. Bahler, who is de-
vout adventist, thinks that his sight
is returning as direct answer to
prayer.-Picayune.
