Some Good Advice to the Y Young People
About Marrying During War Times
atlanta Constitution.

battle of Jonesboro young man from
Pike County lost his right arm and his
girl "went back on him on this ac-
count and married another fellow
don you see.
On the other hand, there was a man
who lost both his arms close up, and
he found the most devoted woman l
ever knew joyful in his return home.
He had married just as the war began
! and that marriage was his salvation.
T mind me now of how they struggled
Just after the surrender. The man
could do nothing without arms, it was
thought, but he did do something, and
love for good wife will make any sort
of man do something.
Perhaps the reader is curious to
know what an old soldier without any
arms at all could find to do. At the
surrender this family found them
selves without a thing to 60 upon.
But crop must be made, said the
wife. It was no sooner decided upon
than this frail woman gathered a hoe
and proceeded to plant corn. The
armless man went with her to the field
and watched her at work, and you can
better imagine how he felt than | could
tell.
At last happy thought hit the SOL
dier. He could pull plow. He was
strong and Healthy and willing, and he
soon persuaded his wife to hitch him
up, and their first days work showed
the great advantage over the hoe. Tc
make the story short, this armless con-
federate, as horse, with a frail wife
as the plowhand, made plenty to do
them the next year, and to buy a horse
besides. From then on till now that
family has prospered and has raised
several children, an honor to any coun-
ty and joy to their parents.
But whether we will ever have such
women as the old confederates were re-
mains to be seen. God bless them,
they should never be forgot in all the
excitement Of whatever is or may be.

Misery in Spain.

AS for the unfortunate people,
whose ardent wishes and vital inter
csts are trodden rough-shod under
foot, it cares absolutely nothing about
Cuba, the Philippines, the colonial
possessions or the war. 1t asks only
for work and food, and for these it
asks in vain. 1t is impossible to con-
vey an adequate idea Of the misery
and want which the ill-starred masses
have to endure in order that this or
that minister may retain his plate and
play his role. The Spaniard is very
temperate and much enduring indi-
vidual, who can exc out living un-
der conditions which would appal not
only an Englishman, but even Ger
man. He can live and thrive on a
species of course peas (garbanzos) and
dry bread and olives, without meat or
vegetables. This Spartan fare cost
next to nothing. When, therefore,
he is said to be in actual want, what
is really meant is that he is dying of
hunger. And such at present is, un-
fortunately, the condition of large
numbers Of the working classes.
say of the working classes, in
order to put the case as moderately as
possible. But there are other layers
Of the population as we'll who are lit
orally starving. Throughout Spain,
for example, the school-masters--
those whose mission it is to impart
elementary instruction-are terribly
underpaid-on paper. In reality they
are not paid at ALL With the excep-
tion of two provinces, these wretched
Spanish "dominies have not seen the
color of money owing to them for ten,
twelve, twenty months. In various
parts of the country these teachers Of
the future generation have openly
taken to begging in the streets. The
soldiers who sacrificed their health
and who lost their limbs in Cuba and
the Philippines are still the unpaid
creditors of the nation, while the
money which the government expressly
stipulated to pay them has been hand
ed over to the rebels as an inducemens
to keep the peace. And everybody
now knows how it was kept. a few
days ago sergeant decorated for his
bravery in the colonies walked about
the streets begging a crust of bread,
until the crowd gathered around him
and took pity on the pariah. The
widows and orphans of the thousands
of brave youths who lost their lives in
Cuba are dying slowly of starvation.
The proportion Of women to men IN
Spain has become very unfayorably
for the former, and in Madrid alone
there are about $4,000 more women
than men. And few can realize the
meaning of this terrible fact. The
soldiers in Cuba at this present mo-
ment have unsatisfed claims against
the government for six months pay
and entertain scant hopes of ever re-
ceiviDg it.-Lontlon Telegraph.

Return OF Toral's Army.

! WASHINGTON, July 2O.-Arrange-
ments were practically concluded by
the government tonight for the trans
portation Of the Spanish prisoners at
Santiago from Cuba to Spain.
The contract was awarded to the
Spanish Trans-Atlantique company,
represented by j. M. Ceballos & Co.,
Of New York. The company agrees
to carry the prisoners from Cuban
ports to Spain at the rate of $40 for
each enlisted man and s55 for each
commissioned officer, subsistence to
be furnished by the company on the
army ration basis, as provided for in
the governments advertisement for
bids.
The award provides, also, that the
company shall have five ships at
Santiago in nine days from tomorrow,
July 81; two in II days from to-mor-
row, and enough to complete the
transportation of the prisoners in q
days from tomorrow.
Two days ago Col. Hecker, in charge
of the transportation of the troops in
the quartermaster generals depart
ment Of the army, went to New York
to consult with shipping companies
concerning the transportation of the
Spanist troops surrendered at Santi-
ago. Bids: which he had previously
advertised for, were opened at the
army building in New York to-day.
Colonel Hecker returned to Wash
ington this evening. Tonight he had
a conference at the war department
with Secretary Alger, Quartermaster
General Ludington, Adjutant General
Corbin.
The bids of the several companies
were considered, that of the Spanish
Trans-Atlantique company finally
being accepted, as, in all respects, it
was regarded as the best made. On
the basis of "a. 900 enlisted men and
1000 officers, it will cost the govern
ment s535, 900 to transport the pris-
oners.
The ships will fly the colors Of
Spain, and will be manned, probably,
entirely by Spanish crews.
1t was remarked tonight as one OF
the curious developments Of the war,
that the United States government
should enter into friendly contract
with company, many of whose ves-
sells are auxiliaries to the Spanish
navy, and some of which have been
captured or destroyed by the navy Of
the United States.

Walking Erect.

Very few persons walk we'll. The
little girl of six summers, with her
pretty new dress on, walks as straight
and elegantly as ever she will. Her
little feet are thrown forward with an
elasticity peculiar to that age. The
little girl of thirteen begins to be care
less, bends her back forward, and goes
diving into the school-room as if she
were going to swim. At sixteen she
steps along with short steps, striking
her heels hard on the floor with a
don -care-for-anybody sort of walk.
At eighteen she thinks more Of gait,
and tries to recall that of her earlier
childhood. The boy of eleven, with
his new thick boots, plants his foot
like soldier, and never knows that
his boots disturb anybody. Many
children are taught at home and at
school to walk on their toes. This
will do in sick room, when one has
squeaking shoes, but it is not natural
or elegant. Put the heels down light
ly at first, and the toes last; this
keeps the body erect, instead of bend
ing the body forward as a person must
bend who walks on his toes.

Contagious blood poison is absolutely
beyond the skill of the doctors. They
may dose q patient for years on their
mercurial and potash remedies, but he
will never be rid of the disease; on the
other hand, his condition will grow
steadily worse. S. S. S. is the only cure
for this terrible affliction, because it is
the only remedy which goes direct to
the cause of the disease and forces it
from the system.
