many young girls are the real mistresses
in the home" sighed Mrs. McCrea.
1t appears to be popular just now
We are so afraid that our young people
shall not have a good time all the time
that we go to the extreme of spelling our
happiness for them and giving up the
lights due us as parents, thus doing
them as well as ourselves injustice for
lessons in incidence, insolence and selfish
ness are easily learned in youth. The
beginning is almost unnoticed For ex-
ample, short time ago a little mother
gave her six-year-old daughter an infor-
NAL party. After a weeks training for
the small function the tiny hostess was
allowed to meet, entertain and part from
her guests without the mother being pre-
sent, that the pretty graces necessary to
society later on might be part of her
growth"
"Why, Mrs. Reade-I did that for Doris
without thinking of all the aftermath.
The child has been a bit overbearing and
discontented ever since. Thank you, I'll
attend to Doris now"
$50 few of us think of the aftermath.
And in the first few years of our child
ren's lives the extra care and work that
they bring crowds justice out The first
few years count for more in the training
Of child than twice that number farther
along. Lessons in love, patience, uselfsh-
ness and truth are a part of ones life
then, and the mother or father that
teaches them effectively from the cradle
to the school-room becomes a lasting in
huence long after school days are over"
Il think that l understand you. Mrs.
Reade. l see now why, Mamma says So
is part of your daughters vocabulary.
and that the loving respect they give to
you makes them lovable to every other
mother"
Mrs. McCrea fastened her wrap and
with bright laugh said: Goodbye,

Doris objective lessons-it is all plain tn
me now. Even sixteen may be SWEET

BY HARRIET BURCH WHARTON
1t seems such a critical age for girls
that almost dread the time when Doris
sweetens out. l hardly know a girl of
sixteen that does not giggle, or over
dress or fiirt, and they are often rude
or, at least, Indifferent in their manners
to anyone outside their own particular
set" Mrs. McCrea stopped to see the
effect of her words upon Mrs. Reade
who had three daughters of her own,
above, below, and at the crucial age con-
demned by Mrs. McCrea
''Will you tell me some of the girls
that are sweet at sixteen, please-ex-
cept1ng my own, of course" smiled Mrs.
Reade.
why, Lucia Damn, Eleanor Kelley,
Carolyn Wade and-and-possibly a few
Others"
Yes, Lucia and Eleanor are quiet, stud
lous girls and will never be anything but
pleasant and lady-like but for the rest
who are full of life and restlessness, YOU
will need to look beyond their sixteen
years to the mother who has trained
them"
"Ah, l see. You make motherhood so
intensely responsible, Mrs. Reade, that it
quite frightens me, and yet the burden
OF 1T does not seem to weigh upon YOU
very heavily"
A low laugh was the answer. for it was
an unusual thing to see the bright face of
irrepressible Doris mother clouded with
anxiety.

ton hall and parlor full of girl-life and

He Writes Interestingly of Augusta, Its
Surroundings and Churches.


Surroundings and Churches.
Augusta. Ga, Nov. II The Angus
taus have recently pulled of the 9eor-
a-Cs 'olina Fair, which was declared
by all its patrons TO be a great success.
For elk daJs the people of the city and
the adjoining country tbronRed the
grounds Several days more than fif-
teen thousand persons psssed through
the gates. All the exhibits were fine.
Many farmers took as high as two hum
dred dollars worth Of premiums.
The farming interest around Angus.
"a this year has not proved so great
success as during the past two years.
For five months we had rain almost
every day, thereby preventing the
farmers from cultivating their crops.
Notwithstanding poor crops and low
prices for cotton, farm lands are high
and very few we'll improved farms are
offered for sale.
The religious interests OF the city
seems 10 be on the upgrade. All the
churches are supplied with efficient
pastors and are making constant head
way Now that the North Georgia
Conference convenes next week sew
eTal changes in the Methodist churches
are anticipated. One OF the leading
posters Of the Methodist Church has
been transferred on /scco0nt Of the
time limit with the NJ. E. Conference.
The Green 81. PFesby terrain Church
has built an eiRhteen-thousand. dollar
house Of worship during the year, and
now the membership is fearful that
they will lose their pastor, Rev. George
Guile. The pastor has been called to
the Westminster Church in Atlanta,
and II is feared by bis people that he
will accept.
The work OF the Second Church, OF
which the writer Is pastor, has made
constant progress during the past year.
We have now about 625 members and
receive others at almost every teEvice.
During the year the church has raised
for expenses and benevolence and
buildings about SO 0OO. We now have
our lots aud in sight about $4,000 with
which to begin our new edidce. We
propose to begin work on the building
about January Let, 1907.
In appreciation OF the services Of the
pastor, his salary has been increased
twenty per cent. IL is q pleasure to
work with a people who thus show
their appreciation OF a mans services.
The Gainesville Baptist Church has
always been ready 70 respond In APP
probation OF their pastors services.
No more faithful body OF Christisns
can be found than In that goodly |
city.
We have read with interest the de-
Of Gainesville. IL ia a
source OF pleasure to every former
to read OF the progress
made and the success OF the citizens
In landing the Unive islty feel con-
fldent that Gainesville will always
prove herself worthy Of the Univer.
atty and give its hearty support to
those who are 40 lie head May Gaines

Dyspepsia Of Women.
Caused BY Female Disorders and Cured by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound

A great many women suffer with a
form OF indigestion or dyspepsia which
does not seem to yield to ordinary treat
ment While the symptoms seem to be
similar to those of ordinary indiges-
ton, yet the medicines universally pre-
scribed do not seem to restore the pa
tents normal condition.
