this must surely have been in Savannah
on an afternoon when there seemed to be
almost no air, and sullen stiffness reigns
supreme. At such times Tybee is a
refuge, and there can be found the lost
breeze. 1t is not surprising that large
numbers of visitors daily enjoy the ad
Yantages of Tybee. What a restful,
peaceful inspiration is the breaking of the
waves. upon the beach, and the soft light

times over.
The streets have dignihedly deserted
air, and Savannah is having a holiday
from society's unquiet presence, and the
suburbs are having the fun aud catching
the crowds.
There shone in her face the happy
spirit that makes much of the smallest
Joy in life, and sees in the most obvious
admiration of her friends only an evil
dence of their own good dispositions.
She was, in fact, essentially a modern

in cny century, some one human being is
appointed to speak and that one voice
carries the day. Multitudes fall into the
track made for them. The crusade
against dissipation and weakness in any
form, in men as frowned upon by women,
is as much the topic of the day as is the
tariff or the coinage question. And Sarah

this question forward. 1t is no longer the
