MATCHMAKING MAMMALS.

Now that the season is nearly over,
mothers of large families of daughters
or, better still, since the fashionable
woman of today is very tall and big,
mothers of families of large daughters
are counting up the COSTS of all the en-
tertainments and the number of daugh-
ters that they have m snaged to get en-
gagged; it has been found, as usual, that
the dinner giving mothers have had the
best luck.
"You see, my DEAR" said an exper-
fenced dinner-giver to an inexperienced
garden party giver, you see, that
when a man has dined we'll and had a
little wine, he is apt to feel comforta-
BILE and perhaps little maudling, and
then after dinner the girl sings senti.
mental songs to him, and he thinks it's
about time he settled down, and he ism t
so cautious as man is in the after
noon and he proposes more easily" a..
And it seems to be true, too.
Though one or two engagements have
been due to garden parties this season,
they are generally so dull that they
have doubtless made unions that
previously seemed plausible appear
thoroughly impossible, and have spoilt
more matches than they have made.
Afternoon teas are productive of mutual
distrust and never lead to much, but
dances and dinners make matrimony.

AMERICA FOR THE YOUNG.

For the young and vigorous we give
the preference to life in America; for
middle and old age, in Europe. While
people are active and ready to go at a
break-neck pace either for pleasure or
business, let them remain at home
When they have passed that rushing
period of their existence, running for
record, as Paul Bourget so we'll ex-
presses it, let them go and travel in
Europe, where an old society has been
built up to nourish, assist and protect
those growE gray IN social service.
London is the place where the dowa-
ger element flourishes. When a woman
gets to that period of life when re-
Were and a stomacher of diamonds is a
necessary appendage and she has naught
else that is attractive, then let her go
abroad; but as long as her youth and
beauty last let her live in this fresh,
young vigorous country, enjoying it's
bright, cheerful and bracing climate
and having the devotion Of men who
are living and working for future for
tune and fame, who are interesting in
asmuch as they are undertaking the SER
ious work of life and only seek society
as relaxation from their daily toll.
Such men well know how to appreciate
and admire all that is fair and beauti-
full in woman.
In London and Paris men of leisure
devote their lives to society. making it
their sole occupation, their aim being
to take and hold high social position.
These men are always ready to devote
themselves to the dowager and older
members of society. knowing they will
not only appreciate such devotion, but
that they will repay them by advance
ing their social interests and entertain
ing them. Ward McAllister.

MANS HELPMEET.

Most Americans who travel in Europe
become indignant when they see women
working as farm hands. But Rabbi
Joseph Krauskopf, of Philadelphia,
now in Germany, says: "Such farm
work for women is neither degrading
nor too taxing. They have pledged to
become helpmates to their husbands
and they regard it their duty to lessen
the labors of their fathers, and, being
physically Die to do their share, they
regard it wrong to permit the stronger
sex to slave themselves to death while
they are idling their time away at
home. Judging from their happy and
healthy looks, they seem to be none the
worse for taking their places alongside
the men folk for the purpos of honestly
earning their bread Had we little
more practical good sense and less sem
timentality among our women at home,
many woman's life might be happier
today, happier for being more useful,
and many a mans life would be spared
the necessity of Shaving itself to death
to indulge wifes or a daughters idle
ness and Injuries -

LITTLE THINGS.

A goodby kiss Is a little thing.
With your hand on the door to go,
But II takes the venom out of the sting
OF q thoughtless word OF u cruel fling
That you made an hour ago.
A kiss of greeting is sweet and rare
After the toll of the day.
And 1t smooths the burrows plowed by care,
The lines on the forehead you once called TAR
In the years that have flown away.
Wis a little thing to say, you are kind;
love you, my DEAR" each night,
But 1t sends a thrill through the heart, find
For love is tender, as love Is blind
As we climb ife's rugged height.
We starve each other for loves caress,
We take, but wedo not give;
1t seems 30 easy some soul to bless,
But we dole the love grudgingly, less and less
Till tits bitter and hard to live.

An Odd Habit Among Rocks.

Among the odd habits of rocks is the
way that members of the same rookery
have Of intermarrying generation after
generation. The males always choose
their wives from among their near
neighbors, and if one should be so bold
as to bring home to his rookery bride
from distance the other rocks will in
variably refuse to receive her, and will
force the pair to build some way off. In
the neighborhood of big rookeries out
lying nests of this kind may always be
found.-Yankee Blade.

BRIsBANE's CONDITION.
Mai. Blandford of the Opinion That He
Was Responsible for It.

u
Was Responsible for It.
There is something very queer in the
case of Pleasant Brisbane. the young
negro who was reported TO have been in
humanity treated at County Convict Camp
No. 1. during his confinement there on a
sentence from the recorders court for
/ vagrancy.
Brisbane did not make any complaint
about his treatment Recorder Wilson
says. but came 10 the barracks for the
/ purpose Of seeing about his fine, when at
tention was accidentally called to his
condition, as has been stated. Recorder
Wilson, however. thinks the negro was
given rouEher treatment than he ought
to have received. Mai. r.. A. Blandford,
county engineer, thought the reports
about the matter did the guards at the
camp considerable injustice He says he
has requested DR.. II. r. Chisholm the
/ county physician to make an eXamina-
ton of the Hegro's condition and report
TO The chain gang committee of the county
commissioners. Or. Chisholm endeavored
TO find Brisbane for that purpose during
the day, but was unable to do so. The
suppositon was that he left the city yes
terday for Augusta, for which place a
ticket was sent him by his mother
Maj Blaudford made an investigation
of the matter yesterday as far as he was
able to do so, and he says he found the
negro had been absolutely worthless at
any kind of work given him. He said
Brisbane had been transferred from one
squad TO another and tried at everything,
but that little or no work could be gotten
out of him. He said Brisbane had been
given only three whippings since he went
on the gang on oct 81. He received the
last one Thursday, Nov 8, six days before
he appeared at the barracks.
Maj. Blandford says the convicts are not
punished with a whip, but with a strap Of
the regulation kind, such as is prescribed
by law to be used in the penitenuary. He
says the blow of the strap stings and then
itches. and that while il does not AFRAID
the skin, the flesh is often irritated and
made sore by continual scratching. AS
Brisbane had not been whipped within six
days OF the time his condition was noted,
it is thought very probable that this was
the case with him. Mai. Blandford says
that all conviots have the right and the
opportunity to complain to him. and that
they can also make appeals to the county
commissioners and whenever there is
anything in case that demands investi-
cation it is promptly looked into. He de-
precates any reports about such matters
until they are fully investigated, as when
they become known among the Convicts
they cause more or less INSTRUMENTATION,
and he says he has noted, as a fact, that
after such reports have been circulated
among the convicts the volume of the work
done has been perceptbly less for several
days afterward
DR.. T. J. Charlton. chairman of the
chains-gang committee, was asked about
the matter, but he was not inclined to
talk. He said Dr. Chisholm had been re-
quested to make an examination, and if
his report showed it necessary an investi-
cation would be held.

two votes and the other seven In Bull
loch and Burke three precincts in each

Griffin precinct was the only precinct in
Ethngham which gave him a majority
His vote there was to l against Lester

twenty-five precincts gave Brown sufl-
cient majorites to carry the two coun-
ties. In Liberty only one precinct went
populist. Mcintosh did not give Brown
a ghost of a show, the largest populist
vote in any precinct being twenty-eight.

Brown slight majorities. In all twenty

1900 greater than he has ever received in

evidence that the democratic ranks of the
