the week of October 81 as seed corn
week" the Burlington Hawkeye
says: 1T looks as if this business of
setting aside days and weeks for vari-
our purposes were being worked to
death in this country. And the in
evitable result of such OVERRIDING of
things will he that even if the COVER
nor does designate such week, very
few will give any attention thereto.
We should go at this thing in less

mindful of our days and weeks, ever
bearing in mind that there are only
fifty-two weeks in the year, and that
the private citizen may like to have
a few Of these for his own use."

FAMOUS VIRGINIA
WOMAN PASSES AWAY
Mollie Elliott SeaweIl. One OF the
Last of the Old Regime, Leaves
Many Works Which VIII Live.

Great sorrow is expressed in lite
rary circles over the passing of Mol
lie Elliott Seawell author of a recent
series of army stories in the Pictorial
Review and many other well-known
and widely-read romances.
Miss Seawell was born in Glouces-
ter County just prior to the Civil
War, and her girlhood was spent
among the descendants of the old
English settlers there. In her early
youth she began to write articles
which paved her way into journalism
and later into the realm of fiction,
where she found her calling.
An authoress who knew her in
Washington, where she has made her
home for many years. yesterday gave
the following charming account of
her:
Miss Seawell lived alone, except
for a faithful old negro woman. in
a home full of "reminiscences of the
Old South. The furnishings pictures
and general atmosphere bespoke the
habitation of a sweet, gentle. refined
Southern woman, who, in spite of her
knowledge Of the world and society.
and in spite OF her calling. was one
Of the last living models OF rare old
portraits. Although she wrote mod
ern stories. the old fashioned ideas
predouinated.
Miss Seawell set aside several
hours each day in which to produce
the literature whereby we know her
and her best friends couldn't call her
from her desk until the time was up,
Like all Seutherners. and Nirginians
in particular. Miss Seawell kept open
house She was very fond of enter
tanning and was far-famed hostess
because OF her gracious mien and her
charming hospitality. One of her
most noticeable characteristics was
the wearing Of trains to her dresses.
When skirts We're far above the
ankles last year. Miss Seawell still
appeared in the slight train. which
became her tall, slender figure so
we'll. Her hair was OF pale reddish
hue and she dressed in grays and
lavenders.
Miss Seawel was one of the high
est paid magazine writer's in America
at the time OF her death. She was
member of the Penwoman's League
and the Colonial Danes of America"
A half brother. Harrison Seawell.
and hslf-sister. Louisa Seawell. both
OF Gloucester County, survive tho au

be uncomfortable, but after a few
days he would grow better, the cure
being absolute in four to six weeks.
Once the patients are cured they
declare that they have no further de-
sire for drugs. Many ex-patients say
that the Harrison act is the greatest
legislative enactment on the books.
and urge for an application of IL that
VIII prevent any sale of drugs.
The superintendent told OF one case
of a woman who was sent to the hos
pital for the laudanum habit. Her
husband wrote to DR.. De Jarnette say
ing that he could effect her cure. and
keep her at home, If a doctor did not
prescribe the drug for her.
The report to the Governor stated
that the hospital was in better condi-
ton than ever before. There are now
1.624 patients enrolled. which are
maintained at a per capita cost of
s177.55 Dr. De Jarnette stated that
while every part OF the institution
is carefully looked after, the welfare,
comfort and treatment of the patients
receive the first consideration.
