Violating Neutrality Laws.
By Ruth Cameron.

To quarrel or to air ones family d.s-
agreements in front Of outsiders is pain
fully bad taste.
To appeal to these outsiders to take
sides by expressing their opinion on the
points of contention is worse than bad
taste. II is d;scourtesy: ii is unkindness;
it is a fragrant violation Of the golden
rule For every one knows how embar-
ssing it is to be appealed to in this
way. To have to be witness to a fam
lily disagreement is bad enough. 1t makes
one feel so awkward and self-conscious,
SO painfully in the way and so wishfui of
an Aladdn's carpet on which to whisk
ones self to the farthest corner Of the
earth. But to be appealed to to take
sides-that Ia the last straw.
4 friend tells me that she actually
ceased to visit at one home because the
husband and wife were continually dis
agreeing and continually embarrassing
her by urging her to express her opinion.
Il suppose they are fond of each 9TH
err" she said. but thee never agree on
any thing. and they never have the
slightest hesitancy about arguing in front
of me. l wouldn't mind that much,
but they always insist on my saying
what I think. and then the one l disa-
gree with gets cross with me- | try to be
polite and not take sides, but you know
hard work. One time 1t was whether to
do the living room over in brown or
green, and the next 1t was an argument
on woman's suffrage, and the next Ii was
whether to send Donald TO public pri
vate school. That was the last time l
was there. don't believe In private
schools and was foolish enough to say
SO. Laura does. and that made her cross
with me, and altogether I just made up
my mind that I'd never go there again
at least unless l heard they had re-
formed
Myself. l shall never forget a day
spent with a quarrelsome family. Though
was invited for the day, / should GER
tainly have made some excuse to escape
sooner. had it not been that their home
was an island and the only communi-
cation with the mainland was small
steamer which touched at the island once
a day. | went on the morning trip and
couldn't get away until night j made
mp my mind I'd never go island visiting
again.
There were two daughters and their
mother IN the family. and as each one
was ready to quarrel with either OF the
others on practically any subject, they
managed to keep some embodiment on
hand almost every minute OF course l
was strenuously urged to join In the fun
by expressing my opinion on the disputed
points. / tried to remain neutral, but, as
my friend says. balancing the fence
all day is not the most comfortable thing
in the world.
The fine art of being good to visit is
founded on more than an ability to house
your guest comfortably. feed him well
and entertain him much. 1t also requires
the courtesy and breeding not to afr
ones family Engagements in his pres
ence and never, on any account. to try to
make him join in them.

Mrs. Mamie Eloise Walker, wife of
DR.. Miles J. Walker, died at her home
In Yorkville last Saturday morning at
about o'clock, after a desperate Ill
ness extending over ten days or two
weeks.

was married to DR.. M. ]. Walker at
her home on Pacolet river In October.
1881, and came to Yorkville with her
husband and children about 1894. since
which time her home has been In this
place.
Mrs. Walker was a Christian Of gra-
cious manners and attractive person.
ality, and these qualities combined
with unusually fine intellectual at
tainments, gave her a most enviable
standing in the religious and social life
Of the community. The position she
filled was one that commanded the
confidence, respect and esteem Of all
who knew her, and since information
developed Of her desperate illness re-
Gently there has been widespread con-
Germ over her condition. Her death has
been the occasion Of profound sorrow
throughout the community.
Mrs. Walker Is survived by her hus-
band, who is in a Baltimore hospital
convalescing from the effects Of a re-
cent surgical operation, and the fol-
lowing children: Mrs. r. f. Sharpe,
Mrs. Edwin Nesbit, Mrs. ]. P. Hollis
and Miss Olive Walker. She Is also
survived by two brothers, Mr.. ]. L.
Walker Of Wilkinsville, and Mr.. Sid
ney o. Walker Of Gaffney.
The funeral took place last Sunday
morning, the religious services being
conducted in Trinity church by Rev.
]. F. Anderson, assisted by Revs. E.
E. Gillespie and ]. L. Oates, and being
concluded at the grave In Rose Hill

ances Of the family came from adjoin-
ing towns and the surrounding coun-

family in the town was represented In
whole or in part, and there was tre-
mendous concourse Of mourners both
at the religious services and at the in
terment.
