after preaching secession from one end
of the state to the other. voluntarily took
up arms to defend the state when the

ready to go out and fight for it.

/, Did you ever see the governor of state
pick up the business end of red hot
poker?
What did he do? What did he say?
Did he act like any ordinary human
being?
If the governor was only would-be
executive of a great state of the union
the same rule of conduct applies. Under
such fervent circumstances a man does
not have time or opportunity to con-
slider his position in the community.

A little writing ink applied to the
burn by the anxious daughter and de-
voted wife Immediately relieved the
pain and cured the wound. You will do
well to remember this remedy.
Old Colonial Home
Colonel O'Neal and his interesting fam
fly live in a fine old colonial mansion at
the end Of the principal street in Flor
cnce. The house was built 81 years ago.
but recently came into the possession OF
the present owner. 1t Is surrounded by
five acres of land devoted to lawn, gar
dens and lots.
The front is beautifully shaded by fir,
spruce, cottonwood and oak trees. Be-
meath the shades Is an artistic arrange
lnent Of evergreen hedges and flowers.
The rooms and halls Of the house are
large. the ceilings high. while massive
columns support the front. 1t is typical
home Of colonial days and has been the
scene Of many royal social affairs in the
days gone by. Some of the most noted
men in the country have been entertained
. here.
Now do not imagine that these sur
poundings indicate that Colonel O'Neal is
y rich man. He is far from 1t. The house

of his professional career. 1t is said
that he never declines to do all in his
power for worthy men and women with
out regard to financial compensation.
Home Life of O'Ncal
But 1 want to tell you something about
the family and the home life of the people
who may soon be tho first people Of the
state.
The family consists of Colonel O'Neal.
Mrs O'Neal, Kirkman O'Neal and
Miss Olivia ONeel. Miss Olivia in
sists that / must include Togo,
her constant companion and body
guard He came from Greene county sew
eral years ago and has all the attributes
of loyalty usual to the faithful dog.
He is NO cuddled pet, nursed and fed
In the lap but a plain, honest dog that
knows how to behave himself even In
church, and also knows how to appreciate
q good mistress.
Mrs. O'Neal Is one of those sweet
motherly women that YOU just cannot
keep from loving when you know her.
Any boy would be proud OF her as a
mother She is cultured and though
she takes great interest IN the social and
church affairs of her home town, she Is
thoroughly devoted to her home and her
family. She is indulgent to her children,
but firm and wise In her training of them
She is wrapped up in the interests of her
husband to whom she Is singularly de-
voted and watches every move In his ca
reer with jealous interest.
Mrs. O,Neai is singularly lacking In all
forms of affectation. She claims none of
the honors that may come to her husband
or children. rather rejoicing in their sue
cesses with the unselhsh purity OF a wife s
and mothers love.
Kirkman is serving his first year at the
Annapolis Naval academy, to which posi-
ton he was appointed something more
than a year ago by Congressman Rich
ardson. Good reports are coming from
him constantly. He is 10 years old and
most promising young man.
Miss olivia O'NeuI
Miss Olivia is IS years Of age and the
light of the home. She possesses rare
combination of virtues. She Is both beau
her parents and the object of universal
admiration has not spoiled her in the
least Che is now attending the State
Normal college here. and am told is one
Of the most promising students. She is
fond of good literature and displays I'm
usual dramatic powers. She Is pro-
nounccd blonde with a wealth OF beautiful
hair Her eyes-well you must see them
to appreciate their power. The photog-
raphcr's camera fails in its attempt to
record the true grace Of face and form.
The home life of the O'Neals is ideal.
1t Is intimate and simple. The family
circle is simple. companionable and pleas
ant. The front door stands open and all
visitors are welcome. There is nothing
stlted or superficial. The guest is made
TO feel at perfect east the moment he en-
tiers the house. He is allowed to make
himself comfortable in his own way, and
VET nothing is neglected on the part of
every member of the family to add to
the comfort in that quiet. homelike way
that is always appreciated.
