He continued on that line until I began to feel like I was nothing but an old ship that my wife was steering through the breakers. I saw that his remrks were very grateful to Mrs. Howell, for she stretched up a little, too, and as Hooked around upon the matrons they were all stretching up, and my fear is they will stay so. I don’t think I will invite Evan to our next wedding. And now comes the aftermath—the second reaping of this harvest of love. We must answer ali these kind letters, and we must thank the donors for all these beautiful gifts. It will take time, but it will be a labor of love. Many of the letters are in verse, and what is re markable, most of the poems are from our aged friends, Just take note of thia from Dr. Alexander, the veteran physician of Atlanta. Who would have thought that he would have turned bard in his seventy-fifth year? He sent me a beautiful cane, and the following verses, were wrapped around it. May the good Lord lead him down gently to to the grave: “I never can forget it-»whatever time destroys— The dear old time in youth’s sweet prime, When ‘Bill’ and I were boys.

The Jews made a jubilee of every fiftieth year and proclaimed liber ty throughout the land and cancelled all debts and gave the land and the cattlerest. And so now let us have rest and peace both in body and in mind. That is all very sweet and very pretty, says my wife, but we must work on. She madeup her bed this morning as usual, and is now sewing new buttons on my old vest. But I can’t help see ing the new rings on her fingers and the golden hiar pin that Major McCol lum gave her in her hair. As for me, I have my orders, for it has long been my habit when I get a new suit of clothes, to keep them on as long as she will let me, and sometimes when she is not looking. I work in them. Already she has put my wedding suit away, and 1 will not get it again until Sunday morning. The truth is, I don’t tee much difference between now and then between the past and the present. I am still the boy. She wants me to bring in some coal right now. There is no sign of rest for me In this our year of jubilee. The celebration of our golden wed ding is over and my good wife and I are still marching to the end of the jour ney. The fiftieth anniversary of our wedded life brought no change and did not for a moment stop the ticking of the marble clock upon themantle. The days and the weeks and the months are still coming this way. We did not cross the Rubicon nor the Jordan nor the Styx, but only set up another mile stone and marked it fifty. Now weare on the last quarter stretch hearing the goal, and if it was left to us we would make it an even race. Birth and mar riage and death are the most notable events in this life, the most pregnant with fate, and destiny, of happiness or misery and it becomes us to pause oc casionally and ponder them. If we can do this with serenity and gratitude it is well for there is no comfort in mel ancholy. And so we were made happy on our wedding day, and are happy “yet as we recall the kind loving greetings of children and kindred and friends. A shade of sadness came over us of course as we thought of the missing one, the youngest boy afar off in Mexico, but he will come some of these summer days, and bring his sunshine with him. He always brings it and he always sends it in his letters. There is no better sign of a boy than for him to write home of ten and regularly, and Carl does that. Mr. Craig, of Macon, sent us by ex press prepaid a pretty iron double seat for the verandah or the lawn and wrote, “I made this with my own hands for your golden wedding. My wife and I wanted to show our love for your son Carl who was so good and kind to our dear boy while he was sick in Mexico. Our boy came home and died, but we have not forgotten Carl, God bless him.” Whata comfort ‘to a parent are the letters from the children. What comfort are good, kind letters from friends known and unknown and we have had them by the hundred during the past two weeks, and telegrams, too, from New York to Texas—and from the l^ARft In the Privacy of the Home.

A free quotation from the critical Congressional debates and other public utterances at crucial periods aids in makingchis work what it is, the standard reference history ’ this decisive and successful struggle.

Sold in nearly every city : and town, or by mail from wondered what we had done to provoke such interest in our home af fairs. And then the press has showered its benedictions so lavishly that I was constrained to whisper when will this thing stop—where will this bird light. We are proud of all this, but not vain and we are more gratified than proud, but the query is still with us “What have we done and is not this all a dream?” And then there are the beautiful gifts and souvenirs that kept on coming from friends near home and friends abroad. They crowded our tables and adorned the walls. These golden presents glad dened our golden years and fitted the golden wedding so appropriately, and the flowers did, too—beautiful flowers from Brooklyn and Atlanta and Rome and Mobile and Marietta and all laden with pretty sentiments and some with the ever living lines from Mrs. Hernans: “Bring flowers, fresh flowers for the bride to wear; They were born to blush in her shining hair.” Yes, all is for the bride. She lets me look at the beautiful things, and even to handle them, but they are all hers ex cept the gold headed cane and the French Clock that my dear old college mate, Jim Warren sent me. And she has given me one of the gold fountain pens and a pair of the cuff buttons and the new fangled carving fork that I thought was curling tongs for my scat tered hair. It seems to me that I am a little humbler than I was before the wedding, for she claims all the pretty things, from the massive golden ladle of Mrs. Akin and the beautiful golden chalices of the Constitution and the lovely spoon service of the Home and Farm and the gold mount ed umbrella From Kansas City, down to the golden bookmark and the golden toothpicks. There are scores of other beautiful things in glass and gold, and they are all hers. I am no longer the cashier of this bank, for the bride has put away the golden coin, though she says she only wants to keep it a while and will then give it back to me. I remember when my father got a pen sion of $700 for a poor old man who owed him $90 and had owed it for years. Father counted out the gold and gave it to him, thinking that of course he would pay the debt, but he wrapped it up carefully and put it away down in his pocket and started for his horse, who was hitched to the reck near by. As he was about to get up father said to him, “Mr. Jenkins, I thought you told me you would pay me when you got your pension ?’ “Yes, I did, Asa,” said he, “and I’m gwine to do it tomor row shore. I jest wanted to take it all home and let the old woman look at it and feeliof it and countit, and.we would sleep with it in the house one night, Asa—just one night, Asa.” And sure enough he did bring it back next day and paid the debt and put the rest in my father’s safe. I know that my bride will do that, too. Fifty years ago she promised me everything she had or was going to have and so I will wait. She has al ways given me everything that came to her except the children. She claims all of them and still speaks of them as •*My children—my boys and my girls.” Evan Howell, my old friend, came to our wedding and brougnt n/a good wile with him. You see, I was at his fath er’s wedding long before he was born and I wanted him here, but when he was called upon to respond to Judge Akin’s beautiful speech, I thought he went a little out of his way to say that every man was made better by his wife aud that he had reason to be’ieve that his friend, Bill Arp, was indebted to Mrs. Arp for his fame and mime and good repute—that she was the power behind the throne--the guiding Atar— the pilot at the helm, the inspiration, aud all that sort of thing.

To me you’re both a memory No earth dross alloys, Thank God we’re still as happy as When ‘Bill’ and I were boys! “You need no staff to lean on, ‘Eill,’ For love’s your staff and guide. And love has led you safe thus far, And love is by your side: But take this staff, old comrade, With your golden wedding joys— And lean upon it for those days' When ‘Bill’ and I were boys! “James F. Alexander. “March 7, 1899.” Oh the dear memories that these lines crowded on me—the branches where we fished for minnows and perch and horny-heads, the shoal creek where we seined and the mill pond where we jumped from the springboard and the water seemed a mile deep, and the trees we climbed for chestnuts that seemed a mile high. What a fine coon dog was Rover, and what a good rabbit dog was Tag. But the long red hills have shrunk and the mill pond is but a little pool and the trees have been cut down and the dogs we hunted with are dead. Alas! how cruel is time. And here before me are some tender lines from old Colonel Gibbons, who has passed his four score years. He adds another verse to “John Anderson, My Jo.” So does my dear old partner, Judge Branham, and he says that Dr. Deems wrote it. And an old lady from Washington, D. C., sends still another verse and says it was written by a man in Ohio. Here are three different ad ditions to the poem and all are beauti ful. And here are several loving verses from our cherished friend, Captain Cal houn, who is no spring bird or bard, but is old enough to write poetry. There is a man who always brings sun- shine. His life is a struggle and strain, but “JikeJthe sun of Alknomok, he never complains.” Then there is the double-hearted gem from our unknown friend, “Dunne Brown,” with its graphic illustrations. Nothing prettier or more appropriate was ever written or designed. He is both a poet and an artist, and the gem is to be encased in a golden frame and placed upon the golden papered wall. And dear, good Charlie Hubner never forgets or neglects to write the right thing in the right way and at the right time. And then there were the golden wedding’s golden bells that were rung to sweet music by Colonel and Mrs. Roy Mason, of Richmond, Va. Besides all these tiiere were beautiful prose poems by Uncle Remus, Frank Stanton, Wallace Reed and Frank Rich ardson, and Mr. Knott, of The. Home and Farm, and Mr. Einstein, of The New York Press, and Albert Shaw, of The Review of Reviews, that have been placed carefully among our wedding treasures. What shall we render to our friends for all their benefits and benedictions? Why, here is a massive wedding ring that Dr. Benham, the old est and noblest Roman of them all, sent to my wife to be placed by me upon her wedding finger as I renewed the prom ises Imade her 50 yearsago. And here is another that our dear good friend, Joe Brown, sends. It is exquisitely engraved “Golden Years, Golden Hearts,” and his letter is another gem—a prose poem that is worth more than the ring to me, for I am not a woman. And here is a Klondike nugget sent from a friend who lives in the far off state of Washington and is now mining in Alaska. And here, hanging on the parlor wall, is a beautiful picture of John Anderson my Joe. and his loving spouse. Itis encased in an exquisite golden frame, and nothing can be more tenderly pathetic than this sketch, where the good old matron is smooth ing the thin and silvery hair of her life-long companion as she sings, “Now we must totter down, John, but hand in hand we’ll go.” This came from Mrs. Ward, of Birmingham, a dear old family friend, who was a school girl in pantalettes when we moved to Rome in ’51. She, too, had to flee from the foul invader in’64. the same night my wife and children, did and when they two get together I tell you they make the yankee fur fly and the Yankees’ ears burn when those who wear them are talked about. Did you ever try to drive an old ben with a brood of right young chickens out of the ^garden. Well, that’s the way these two mothers fled and dodged and raised their feath ers, and pranced around all over the country trying in vain to find some place where the foul invader could not come. But let that pass. After fifty years, let all sad memories be smoth ered, and all resentments buried. We have many dear friends among those yankees and on this glad event they have all been kind; very kind. The lawyers tell till .of a statute “Soak it to him, Chimmie!’ “Bill him hard, Jake!”, These and similar exclamations of encouragement, oft repeated, came from a crowd of intensely eager hoys and girls and not a few grinning men assembled around two little gladia tors engaged in a serious fist duel on Mulberry street not very Police Headquarters. Some of the grinning men looked half ashamed of their role ,of tolerant spectators of the encounter.. The air of superficial amusement of the re mainder scarcely concealed the real in terest with which they followed every movement of the lighters. To the latter it was no laughing mat ter. One, a slight, pale lad with a dog ged, determined look and thin, firmly compressed lips was classed by his more robust opponent, who was punishing him severely, but he would not avow himself vanquish ed. ; "Let up, Chimmie, he’s had enough,” i) CATARRH - Cured by Botanic Blood Balm (B.B.B.) The Great Blood Remedy Catarrh is due to an impure condition of the blood, and is one of the numerous offspring of Blood Poison. It may have come from a long way back in the family history, but the general opinion among medical men is that Catarrh is the offshoot of Poi soned Blood, producing bad breath and the above- named symptoms. The fact is admitted by all that it is only curable by constitutional treatment. Bo tanic Blood Balm (B. B. B.) has scored some bril liant victories in the cure of this loathsome malady, and why? Because B. B. B., when taken asdirected, mixes with the poisons in the blood, which produce Catarrh, so as to cause the poison to be expelled from the blood through the sweat glands and excretory organs. R. R. Saulter, Athens, Georgia, wrote us not long ago that he was surprised to observe how agreeable his breath had become since using only three bottles of B. B. B. He was also able to hear better. Mrs. Lula Banks of Alabama wrote us that a friend of hers since using six bottles of B. B. B. that the mucous discharges which she had through the mouth and nose had stopped, and that she was able to breathe freely, and talk without offending any one with her bad breath. Botanic Blood Balm (B. B. B.) is a scientific vege- ... . ; table compound used by Dr. Gillam in his private ODVlOUSiy out- . practice for blood diseases, such as Old Sores, Scrof- ula, Boils, Blood Poison, Catarrh, etc. To: sale ov- all druggists at 81 per large bottle, six bottles, full treatment, 85.
