The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1893-09-24

| ner WflJlng. EdCn morning Immediately
| after breakfast she begins debating to her
| typewriter, never writing a word herself
| except personal letters.
But was describing her home. OF the
| drawingrOom is her sleeping apartment.
| 1t is tiny place, furnished with brass
bedstead and low oak dressing ia BILE,
which is covered with sterling silver
toilet articles. There are thirty of them /;
| some in repousse work, some engraved F.;
all heavy.
IN BAB's HOME.
There are but few chairs, and only
| couple of fine pictures on the wall. The
room is remarkably free from the bric-a-
brackish appearance of the chambers of
most women. The bed is hung in soft
gray satin curtains, brocaded in dull reds
| and green's. A crucifx in shell hangs
| over the head.
Back of the dra wing-room is the music
room, in which there are are a piano, a
banjo, a mandolin and a hand-organ,
which Bah sometimes delights to grind
''for fun"
Then comes the mothers chamber, and
then the dining-room, which is furnished
in oak. Dainty china and glass and fine
silver cover the buffet and side tables.
Mrs. Mallon entertains great deal and
she is delightful hostess, having that
rare gift-especially in young person
of making each visitor appear at his or
her best And this without apparent eff
fort.
She has planned among other enter
tainments at this season, a series of teas,
at one of which Mrs. Kendall will be en-
tertained, Mrs Kendall and Mrs MallOn
being warm friends.
1t will interest women readers to know
that Bah buys only the best of gowns and
bonnets. She cannot, she says, afford any
other sort. Twice a year she gets new
street frocks, and they can be worn more
than one season. Her hats are of the S25
sort, for she says that if she paid less for
them she would have to discard them
after short time.
Bab's favorite is red-bright cardinal
Miss tombstone Bennett-Jane-when she
ceases to be Jane, is TO give Bah that
famous red dress because Mrs. MalIon
likes the color. 1t will then become sew
eral sofa pillows.
DEMOCRAT.
Politically, Bah is democrat She is
proud, too, of being an unreconstructed
rebel.
Mrs. Langtry is, she thinks, "the most
beautiful creature" she ever saw, and she
loves best-her mother.
Mrs. MallOn has fancy for iewelry.
To I'LL up her trinket box, no doubt, since
she wetrs very little but rings, for which
she has an Unsuitable craze. Curiously
enough, it might seem, our philosopher
does not believe in advanced women;
wouldn't employ a woman physician or
lawyer On any account. And thinks the
present craze for self-support among her
own sex will die away, and that the COM
ing woman will resume her proper place
that of somebody's wife and mother. She
has no children herself, and has had
none. 1t is matter of sorrow to her.
She says that her ideas about advanced
women may be minded, but after
all, we southern women don't know very
much, anyhow, except how to love and be
loyal to what we love"
Bab's readers send her every variety of
gift. One which she specially values is
the left hind foot of hare caught at mid
night in graveyard. This was sent by
a western admirer. And she always car
ries IL with her. 1t is one of her super
stitions.
FROM HER FRIENDS.
She believes that everybody who has a
pet baby or dog has sent her its picture,
and her mail is enormous, but she answers
every reasonable letter, and this on her
best stationery.
In her girlhood she was an accomplished
player. The piano in the mushroom
often responds merrily at the bidding of
caller; never under any circumstances
