INFLUENCE OF WOMAN.

Titles, wealth and position can pass
away, but the influence of a good wo-
man is eternal. The conscientiousness,
morality and virtue of woman are
more powerful than churches and SER
mons, and they hold more men in the
Path of recJitude than anything else
has ever done or can do. Knowing
this, women must face the RESPONSE
bility and try to strengthen their
power. They must be pure in heart
and life if they wish to hold this power.
They must put behind them every
feeling of sensibility, all longings for a
worldly life and rything that savors
OF deceitfulness. Their words and lives
must reflect their thoughts and hearts
They must be truthful and sympathet-
ic; the smile they wear must be the
image Of the spirit within; and the
words they speak must be dictated by
the heart Women who act thus nobly
are certain to hold the confidence
love and respect of their husbands and
sons and to make them better men
and they will attain an eminence com.
pared with which the Hottest honor:
the world can confer are insignificant
Surely, the influence of good woman
is eternal.

A CRYING NEED.

Last week Mayor Brumby had before
him white boy named John West,
about thirteen years of age, who was
charged with violation of the law.
The boy is homeless, with no parents
to look after him, his mother dead, and
his father gone no one knows where.
The boy sleeps where he can crouch.
and gets meal where people are will
ing to give to him.
He has been given several good
homes, but he runs away and takes to
the streets again. The ladies of the
town have tried to do something for
him but he cares nothing for their
kindness. He seems incorrigible.
Mayor Brumby gave him work and a
home but he abandoned both.
Therefore, when he was found guilty
before Mayor Brumby last week, the
Mayor had puzzling problem before
him. He didn't want to place him on
the streets in shackles, so he called in
the Ordinary, Judge Stone, and he said
he would serd the boy out to the aims
house where he would have good
home and be well cared for. This was
agreed
Constable Barrett was empowered by
the Ordinary to get buggy and carry
John West to the "county's charity"
Mr.. Barrett delivered his charge to
Superintendent Sewell at the home,
about five miles from town, and started
back to town. He had not been in the
city very long before John West made
his appearance on the streets again.
He almost beat the constable back to
town.
When the boy was questioned as to
why he returned, he said he wasn't
going to stay out there.
The youthfulness of this "street
Arab" and his disposition to do
meanness, places upon society the re-
sponsibility of doing something for
him. or let him go on the downward
road to destruction.
That juvenile reformatory is
pressing necessity is so potent that no
argument is needed among sensible
people to sustain the opinion. 1t is the
business of the State to furnish this
reformatory. Humanity and Chris
tianity demand it. 1t is as much a
need as an insane asylum or deaf and
dumb school. The unfortunate youths,
in such pitiable moral plight, with
evil associates and bad environments,
with every tendency to criminality,
should be rescued and given chance
to reform and make good citizens.
Only week before last Judge Gambler
of Fulton county, sentenced several
youthful criminals to the penitentary
for two years for burglary
For this state of affairs to continue
without an effort to remedy it, will
prove crying shame to our people, I'M
less the next Legislature inaugurates a
juvenile reformatory.
The legislator who will do this will
deserve the lasting gratitude of the
people, and build a monument to his
memory more enduring than bronze.
