A. Warner of Barton responded TO the
toast Our Ladies' in a manner that could
not but touch a chord in every humsn
heart. II was not the beauty OF the race
that he praised, but the beauty OF the
soul; the soul as it lit up the face ana
made ii beautiful, even to the grand
mother with wrinkled cheeks and s1ivery
hair. The beauty of women in the nonr
OF strife. of trouble, in battle and sffalrs OF
state from the days of the Israelites down
to the present time. The Doble ohere she
filled in all branches of life, the nooie
sacrifices she had made. and more to this
effect. was what he claimed made woman
beautiful, and we think bis listeners
agreed with him. 1t was the kind OF
compliment we like to hear, instead OF
'gush, and so we mention ls."
