tcLUB LIFE IN THE SOUTH.

Every year finds n growing apprecia- ;tion of country club life among the leisure 'classes of the south until now there are flew southern cities that cannot boast of I'weil equipped and luxurious country clubs. l'This fact was dwelt upon recently by Mr. Joseph Jefferson when he was a guest of the Birmingham Country club. Walking about the club terraces and when shown over the club house MT. Jef- ferson expressed his delight that Blr- mingham could boast so superb and ele- gant club, and he declared that if was worth more to the city than any steel plant, since such an institution possesses peculiar advantages recognized by both the busy man and the man of leisure
 Among the prominent southern cities row considering country club propositions are Montgomery and Atlanta. In the lat. ter city the Piedmont Driving club is famous the country over and has Ionp been the country club of Atlanta. A re- cent movement, however. in that city points to the building of a larger and more complete country club, one that will contain all the features that character ize the up-to-date club.
 recent issue of the Constitution in re- ierrlng to the proposed new club auotcs the opinions of prominent club mon.
 one of these, holding office in beth the Capital City club and Piedmont Driving club, stated that in all these cities where country clubs had been built they have been found to be of great value, not only from a social standpoint, but in their varied facilities for entertainment, they had held the stranger within the gates a long enough time for him to know the place and the people and through them the life and progress of the city. Tn hundreds of cases where men from all sections passing through the city, es- pecially in the winter. are charmed with the climate, they desire to enjoy it in more ways than being dlned and wined at the town clubs he said, and invariably | the questions are:
 " What do you do here for exercise, to amuse yourself in leisure times? | g" Your entertainments at the Capita, City club are brilliant your dinners at the Driving club are delightful, but why do you not have a country club, and why, in this glorious climate, do you not have more out of door pleasures? |"
 From among these very men who have heard of the proposed new club have come voluntary subscriptions, anc expressions of practical interest, but to the members at home will the greatest advantage ac- crue.
 To these will come the many pleasures to be afforded in the purchase of the lake with it's facilities for boating swim ming and kindred amusements. There will be the golf links. tennis court and polo grounds, the bowling alleys, billiard and card rooms and all the equipment boasted by the country clubs of Chicago, | New York and Baltimore, Louisville, Memphis, New Orleans and Birmingham.
 Besides the adaptability of the club to varied amusements, there will be the club house. with its living rooms and restau- rant.
 There will be the apartments and rooms

ton of senator's by direct vote of
the people may not be ready to report
to the full committee at 2 O'Clock.
The committee on permanent organ
ization chose Champ Clark, Of Mis-
souri,, for permanent chairman in
place of Senator Bailey, who is re-
ported to have declined in favor of
his close friend Clark.
Mr.. Bryan went direct fro mthe
convention to the room of the COM
mittee on platform and entered on
work in hand there.
Hill does not desire to shut off ia
vorite sons. He says all should be
presented to the convention. The
New Jersey delegation today decided
to vote for Parker Murphy, at Tam
many headquarters, said he still be-
lieved that Parker could not be nomi-
mated. At 2:10 the convention was
not called to order, but interest in
the expected debate on the committee
on credentials report served to bring
in delegates and spectators early.
Champ Clark, as he went into the con-
vention, said he saw no reason why
they cannot dispose of the NOM
nation tonight. He said he
would nominate Cocktail at PA
Bryan entered the hall and
was cheered heartily. A demonstra-
ton began which lasted ten minutes
Nebraska's banner was raised and
cheering was continued, augmented
when the standards of Missouri, Iowa,
North Dakota and Kentucky were
carried to that of Nebraska. A re-
rounding din followed. The majority
of the delegates remained in their
seats. Then Georgia raised a Park
er banner. The entire convention
apparently joined in a wild roar.
Then the Parker baner was borne to
the platform followed by the STAN
dards of other States and the dem
onstration seemed uncomfortable. It
lasted for twenty minutes. When the
convention adjourns today it will be
till 10 o'clOc ktOmorrow.
The chairman called for order
through a megaphOne. The report of
the committee on credentials was pre-
scented. Bryan made minority re-
port and took the platform to speak.

V0MEN'S CLOTHES
Have Much to Do With Tempera
ment and Disposition.

The following very sensible article
appeared in Medical Talk for July,
and signed E. p. 1t is worthy of
careful reading and the suggestions
would be we'll worth following:
For women to wear black or dark,
dingy colored clothes habitually is
not good thing. Clothes have so
much effect upon woman tempera-
ment and disposition and therefore
upon her health. She may not be con-
SciOus that the clothes she wears make
her feel dreary and depressed and
discouraged. She may never think
anything about it.
SO many women wear black, espe-
cially all through the winter months.
1t saves laundry bills and is economi-
cal from a money standp point. But it
is a bad thing to do. Black has a de-
pressing effect, whether we are really
conscious of it or not. 1t is always
suggestive Of death and sorrow and
bereavement. We don't believe it is
al " iSe tIiiilS LoI ptOplc W veal uotAI II
ing, because it keeps them reminded
all the while of their loss. 1t is just a
useless custom anyhow.
The girl in an Office is so apt to
Get into the habit of wearing black.
She does look very neat and trim,
especially if she relieves the black
with white collars and cuffs. But a
white waist or some pretty color is SC
much more CHEEKY. We feel sure that
if the black waist is left off and a
white or colored one put on the girl
will feel brighter and happier.
Old women and those approaching
middle age seem to think they must
leave off wearing white or bright col
ors, and put on black or gray or
some sombre-hued garment. This is
all mistake. There is nothing Sc
beautiful as an old woman dressed in
pure white. 1t is just all a notion
that because one is no longer young
she must not wear pretty, bright col
