aEooIIa Paradise ~

By a fools paradise" is meant q
vain nope, and, secondaTiiy, unlawful
pleasure, or anything promising what
can never be fulfilled. The phrase
comes from the old schoolmen s1
ecclesiastical history, who taught
that just outside of Paradise was a
'Hmbus fatuorrm,'' or paradise Of
fools, where those who had not the
full use Of their senses in life spent
their eternity-neither in heaven or
hell, but very near to the abode Of the
blessed.

The suffragists of Georgia named
Miss Matthews as one of their three
standard bearers last week This week
the suffragists meet to select all those
who will go to Washington and march
in the parade.
There win be three flags carried in
the Georgia division OF marchers One,
now under construction, will be a great
yellow banner bearing the words,
Votes for Women-1915.' Another is
the wonderful old flag made in 1880 by
the few suffragists then in the state
and unfurled in Marietta street here for
the first time when the National Suf-
fragists association met here in that
year. The other banner that will APP
pear in the parade is the Atlanta Civic
clubs famous old escutcheon. The
bearers of the two last named flags
have not yet been chosen.

"Wanted-A boy; preferably a col
lege lad one who believes in votes for
women"
Is there a handsome young fellow in
Atlanta, really conscientiously in favor
of the extension of the ballot to wom-
en-, who is willing to walk down Penn
sylvania avenue In the national CAPT
tai, and hold to the silken tassels on
the suffrage flag to be carried by pretty
Miss Mamie Matthews, chosen by the
Georgia suffragists for that honor in
the great suffrage pageant?
If there is, Miss Matthews would
like to hear from him. She declares
she has asked every one Of her boy
friends to help her literally, carry the
banner, but not one Of them is willing.
They tell me they would be glad to
walk in the parade at my side" de-
cares Miss Matthews, shyly, but they
say they can not honorably declare
they favor the idea of votes for girls.
Inconsistent things, aren't they?"
Help or no help, Miss Matthews
bravey asserts she'll struggle through
the washington parade, regardless.
I'VE may wear special costumes"
she says. Even now we are thinking
of something in classic outline done in
brilliant yellow, taken from the Greek

it, the brush rolled off the sill, out the
window to the court yard below,
We'll. you'll just have to go down

Its the only one we have"
Resentfully Maggie slammed out the
hall door.
When in a few moments the bell
rang, Helen climbed down the step
ladder, provoked that Maggie should be
so careless as to lock herself out.
Her hands were covered with putty
and paint, and she took up her apron
to turn the knob To her horror it
was not Maggie-but Mrs. and Miss
Clemens in their best calling costumes.
She Lets Her Callers In.
As the hall was dark, they did not
recognize Helen.
rs Mrs Curtis in?" asked Mrs.
Clemens, staring at what she thought
was most untidy maid, for any house
maid would have been ashamed to
look as did Helen just then.
With gasp of establishment and
dismay, Helen had stepped partly be
hind the door, but Miss Clemens eye
sight was keener than her mothers.

an amazed tone
Just what she said or did i'm the next
few moments Helen could never quite
remember, but with some laughing.

her general carpentry and furniture
repairing day. in some way she got
them into the front room.
I'm so sorry we interrupted you"
effused Mrs. Clemens. but the hall boy
told US to come right up.
In a flash Helen remembered that
new hall boy had come yesterday.
So he had been ignorant enough to send
them up unannounced!
Immaculate in their white kid
gloved, sable furred and broadcIothed
elegance, the callers were too polite
to really stare at Helen. But in quick
glances that they tried to make i'm
personal they took in every detail of
her dishevelled hair, soiled wrapper
and apron and hands begrimed with
paint and putty. Even her flushed
cheek Haunted a smudge Of mahogany
stain where with her hand. she had
pushed back her hair.
She could have excused herself and
gone to dress, but with a sort of fierce
defiance she disdained to do this. In
stead, with an assumed bravado she
showed them what she had been doing.
How very interesting, How ex-
tremely clever!" commented Mrs. and
Miss Clemens, but the tone of their
voices implied, How very curious
How very peculiar"
Their Sarcasm.
I'm sure you are MOST clever" re-
peated Mrs. Clemens. II was never a
bit good at this sort of thing, but
