Her devotion and fidelity to the

noble career.
We'll has she been called a pillar Of
the Church, for she was ever a devout,
Jealous and consistent member, CIV

1.-The path of the just is as a
shining light, which shineth more and

heartfelt sympathy in their great loss,
and wish for them the consultations
Of the God of all comfort"

Tuesday evening Mr. Will DuPre
invited the men in business with him
and two or three of his uncles to
assist in doing justice to a fine turkey
gobbler sent him by Mr.. Damon Man
ming from its home on the Satilla
River. A wild turkey is almost "a
boon apart" from other good things
as Mark Twain once said Of Geor-
gias watermelons. Mrs. DuPre serv-
ed this 20-pound roast of wild turkey
in sumptuOus style worthy of it's
excellence. The table was covered
with Mexican drawn-work cloth. A
round mirror was in the center with
a cut-glass vase filled with red carna-
tons. Red candles in silver candle
sticks adorned the dining room. The
place-cards were faces of pretty girls
under red hats. The feast began with
grapefruit tinged with sherry. Every
thing best suited for turkey dinner
followed and the dessert was frozen
egg-nog with whipped cream and fruit
cake.

To CIean Bronze,

Bronzes which have become dull and
lnsterless with age can be immense
ly improved by the simple mea of
washing them with a soapy sponge and
then rinsing them in beer. Old direc-
tons say that the rinsed bronzes should
be placed close to the fire while still
wet and allowed to dry Of themselves.
This is supposed to produce the dull,
leaden glaze which is characteristic of
good bronze. The less soap used the
better. To clean bronze In the or.
binary way with plenty Of hot water
and a strong lather will be apt to In
jure their appearance completely.

MAKE FAST TIME ON SKATES
French Engineers invention Permits
Of Speed of Over Thirty Miles
an Hour.

A new form of roller skate, the In
vention of NJ. Louis Marchand. a
young French engineer, will shortly
be seer on this side, a large quantity
of them having been imported for the
present season.
These skates, which resemble moth
ing more than miniature bicycles,
weigh % pounds each, and work au
tomaticaliy. They have thick pneu-
matte tires and the wheels, OF which
there are two on each skate, are IL
inches in diameter.
Thirty miles an hour can easily be
made by an inexperienced skater with
these skates. The skate Is clamped
to the shoe. and when the foot Is
raised a spring Is automatically
wound up around a specially construct.
ed gear attached to the rear wheel.
When the foot is put to the ground
the pressure releases the spring, IN.
winds the gear, and revolves the rear
wheel at a great rate. Nearly 900 rev.
olutions a minute are thus produced.

a lady who has walked right out Of a
dream. and not a word rose to the
troubled surface OF Mr.. Alan's mind.
Miss Cynthie. honey, grab one Of

Lue called. "Mr. Alan hain't had the
experience to manage two, and If they
slip there will be a mighty ruckus
with both of them in the crying way"
In a moment Miss Cynthia was on
her knees by the tub, had rescued the
brother OF Carrots and was holding
him firmly under his arms with both
hands. Not for worlds would she
have attempted to go or with the
rites of the bath; holding up was
fraught with anxiety enough for her
nerves. Across the dripping, bobbing
heads her eyes met the artists, and
there ensued a few moments of silent,
GREATNESS mirth that well.nigh inca.
pacitated them both and threatened
disaster to the bathers.
"Oh, Miss Selma Lue, come get
him quick-I am going to let him slip
in a minute!" she gasped. Look

Do hold him right side up"

Miss C%ynthie's hands on your apron

a heap to do, for it's about to turn
twelve o'clock now, and want things

There are ONE situations in life
that are marked by a charm that par.
takes decidedly of terror, and as Mr..
Kent received five slender, white, drip.
ping fingers in his W and proceeded
to envelop them in a fold Of the ging-
ham garment pendent about his waist,
he was possessed by a wild desire to
bolt through the back door. but he
realized at the same moment that
nothing so beautiful had ever hap.
pened his way before. His composure
was sufficient. barely. to keep him to
the enchanting task and he solemnly
dried the dainty fingers one at a time
without so much as a glance at the
owner OF them.
Now. although the heart Of Miss
Cynthia was a tender organ and
though she fully realized the suffer.

We'll, now, that's right; I oughter

rightly that the expression dawning
in Miss Cynthia's eyes was that of ad-

about the vision Of loneliness at the
