Bill Arp in Atlanta Constitution. To-day is the seventy-fifth anniversary ot my advent into this world my coming into this mysterious, wonderful condition that we call life. It is a fitting time for meditation, contemplation, cogitation and rumination. An aged poetess played double with herself and said: Life 1 We've been long together. Through pleasant and through cloudy weather, Say not "goodnight," give little warning. And in some brighter clime bid me "good morning." Shedident care to linger and languish on her last bed. The doctors hadent in vented or discovered heart failure then, but that's the way she wished to go. I do not I would have some little time for the last loving words, and looks some time for tears and sorrow on the faces of those who love me. The death of the aged is only a change a parting, a beginning of another life. It is no ca lamity, no horror, no shock, no unrea sonable thing. It is the law of oar being and the old are not far ahead of the young. How kind it is in providence to reconcile us to it as we near the eoal. remember when I thought it was an awful thing to die. I dared not think of it, much less to ponder it and it seemed to me that there was some possible es cape from it and I might not surely die. But as we near the allotted age and real ize the symptoms of decav we become less reluctant, less alarmed and liKe Job are ready to exclaim, "I would not live always; I ask not to stay." But some how I do not feel old not very old 'not infirm. My eyes, are weak and my hearing impaired, and when I stoop long at work in the garden or pick ing strawberries my back aches and my knee bones crack when I straighten up, but I soon get over it. I love work easy work and it xeepa me in good health, job for somebody else. I don't IK" have a master or a boss except my vife, who wants me right now to transplant her peppers. I gently hinted that they should .be planted by a hieh-teinDered woman to do well, and she said she thought an impertinent man would do as well and I had better attend to it right away, bometimes 1 think I have worked enough, lor the poet says we should crown "A youth of labor with an age ofase," and so I like to work when I feel like it and quit when I please. I have never distressed myself about the work that the toilers haye to do. Work has its hard ships and its blessings, too. The law of compensation governs every trade or call ing or condition in life. There is a good side and a bad side. There are lights and shadows. Work is nature's law. 4 'By the sweat of the brow shalt thou eat bread," and no idle man is happy sleep of the -laboring man is sweet ," saith Solomon, and the doctor tells us thai MANAGEMENT OF HUSBANDS. How Wires May Hake Married ' LiiTe a Success. - "Lucy Grey" in the last number of the Kansas City Independent addresses a sensible little sermon to "this year's crop of young brides," and tells them as fol lows "how to make married life the suc cess it should always be": "June is the month of brides, and Kan sas City is now witnessing the usual rich harvest. It is to these young brides happy faced creatures in a perpetual flutter that I waHt to address myself. The average young matron's library is invariably overstocked with fat cook books, volumes on babies, essays on gar dening, helpful household hints, etc., but never; by any chance, a littlebrochure on the management of men. "Man, the central figure of the domes tic department, is boycotted on the fami ly bookshelf. His management and care often a most difficult and intricate matter has been left for the bride to try her 'prentice' hand on. Hundreds of girl pilots wreck their domestic barks on the unsuspected shoals and quicksands presenting themselves on the honeymoon voyage. "It is easy to manage a man when once you are married to him is the first and fa tal proposition laid down by inexperien ced giris who find their fiances restive and inclined to 'kick' under the tight feminine reins of an engagement. Older and wiser women know that it is much easier to manage a man when you are not mar ried to him. "Now it is most assuredly a woman's province to manage her husband and make the best ot the man and the mar riage ordained on her by the fates pre siding over these matters. That Is what she was mainly created for, though often she does not know it. "After all, it is such a clumsy, inartis tic proceeding to take part in turning out the ill-assorted, bickering marriages of which there are far too many examples nowadays. It is such a miserable con- but I don't like to work by the day or the jfcsgio,, of failure on the very threshold of life for a woman to admit that she 'cannot get on with her husband.' If a yoqn man engaged in -business falls into the bankruptcy -court his friends may be sorry for him, but there is invariably a flavor of contempt mixed with their pity. In the greater number of cases he failure has resulted from neglect of work or lack or common sense. He is a 'bad mana "Now it is a woman's special business to make her marriage a success. Of course in marriage, as -in commerce.there must always be a small percentage ot ab snlutely unavoidable failures allowed for, But in nine cases out ot ten marriages would turn out comfortably and happily enough if their respective partners in vested as much energy and interest in the marriage business as they put into the affairs ot a literary or country club. Many modern women strive to become will fight to the death about the things that don't rratter. Sensible, rational couples with grown up families have bickered since the first week of their marriage oyer some trifling detail that they would laugh to scorn if they heard the people next door quarreling about it. Iu mo3t families there is some small bone of discord, which crops up again and aga n at every meal a mean, contemptible cause ot strife that none agree to bury de cently once and for all. Between husband and wife some petty difference gradually grows whfch touches each on the raw whenever it appears with Jack-in-the-box regularity. A tactful, womaftily manage ment in the early stages would prevent the stupendous growing power of these matrimonial bogies. "The 'new woman' asks why her sex should do- all the forbearance. Simply because nature has made the proyince of home making the feminine" end of life's business. Goodness knows the modern man works hard enough for his living in the rough scrimmage of commercial com petition. Married women are relieved of the brunt aud strife of bu sines life and the responsibility of paying the rent. Maybe a man's temper is a little 'short' when he comes home from woik. No doubt he has faced 200 men with short tempers and small patience in the course of a business day. His wife can eternally face me; and it is the privilege of her partnership to soothe and manage a tired man after a hard day spent in the turmoil of a city. "It is easy to manage a man if you let him have his own way on half a dozen small points. If you iuterfere iu these you will haye to take a back seat in the matrimonial coach. 'Manage' him in regard to some idiotic little trifles light as air, and you may make him your willing and admiring slave for all time. Mau is an easy-going mechanism en the whole so long as he is handled with care and consideration in the small things of life. "That woman who prides herself on always 'blurting out everything' in the course ot domestic councils must take her place at the bottom ot the matrimonial class, for she has never learned the A B C of her wifely profession. It is well to remember that though it may be good for a woman's nature to be open, like that of a cltck face, it is not desirable to carry the comparison further by telling 'all she knows. 'On which precept perhaps hang all the law and the prophets with regard to the noble art of the management of men." I A STRANWE CITIZEN. md Let It Died Near Wh Raised Truck Roc iu the Field Faretterille. The Fayetteville Observer has the fol lowing: , "Mr. h. N. Calvarey died at his nome in Gray's Creek during last night of heart disease, aged about seventy years. He lived alone in a large house just off from the river about fifteen miles Jrom B ay etteville, and was found by .his. neigh bors sitting in a chair dead this morn- V ing. "The deceased was a strange charac ter and very little is known of him. He arrived in Gray's Creek about thiitten years ago from Newburgh, N. Y., and bought 100 acres of land ou which he started a vineyard. He built him a large eight room house, which he handsomely furnished, and here he has since lived alone. He has worked on his vineyard and truck farm ever since, but has never been known to make a shipment. Each year's harvest was allowed to rot. "He would work ten hour a day, tim ing himself as if he were working for some one else. "He recently returned from, a trip to NewYork, where he said he went to look after some financial mattery and where he has his bank account." "In his house is a quantity of fine silver ware which he said his sister left on her death. He had also about $ 200 on his person when found this morning. "County Attorney Shaw and Coroner Dr. A. S. Rose who went to Gray's Creek to make an destination of the death of the mysterious citizen ot the township, Mr. L. N. Calvarey, found that death was due to natural causes, and Dr. Rose said an inquest was not necessary. "Mr. .Shaw found among the dead man's effects two bank books, showing good accounts at these institutions which are located in New York. He also found the name of Mr. Calvarey's finaucial agent North, and, when he reached town, he telegraphed him of the death. He received an answer directing that the body be shipped at once to Newburgh, New York. So Undertaker McNeil was sent down to Gray's Creek, and he reach ed the city wuh the body shortly after midnight, and it remained in the un dertaker's establishment until this after noon when it was expressed North via Maxton."

Sim ilarly it I marry a husband it is equally my business to carry the partnership through to a happy and comfortable end. "Now the marriage business is almost entirely in feminine hands. Women are very much in the habit of complaining that many professions and callings are closed to them because of their feminine gender. They forget that the central and leading national business of marriage and home -making is left largely to women. It is very remarkable that women, who trains and educates the entire family of citizens, should covet the post of police man or cultivate an ambition to direct municipal drainage schemes. "The responsibility of making or marr ing a marriage rests almost entirely with the feminine partner. A man devotes eight or ten daily hours to office or shop, for it is his end of the business to keen things at heme going, his province, pleas ing or otherwise, to pay the bills. The wife's end of the business is to manage him and make the home happy and flour ishing. She ought to put as much ener gy and vested capital into her depart ment as the man exercises in his business. Unless she is prepared to do this the woman partner in the matrimonial firm is not playing fair. The dividends of home happiness will not 'pan out' unless a woman invests all her capital in the firm; and this capital must be shrewd'y divided among the several conflicting branches of the domestic concern. "Some women back the babies too heavily and haye nothing left to invest in the man of the house. Others devote too much time and funds to dusting and spring cleaning and take too little stock in the husband and children deoartment. Others spend too many office hours, or had entirely vanistTea arrcrSire Cmq aain take up her housebold duties."

SYSTEMIC CATARRH And Grip Prostration Afflicts the People Ail Summer. Not Paupors, But Guests. Atlanta Constitution. In a communication to the Constitution Mr. W. T. Nichols, of Toomsboro, Ga , protests against-the use of the word char ity iu speaking of the State's action in providing a home for the old soldiers. Mr. Nichols is right. Instead of being an act of charity it is merely an act of justice which the State has rendered to the men who during the dark days of the sixties jeopardized everything save honor in defense of the State's rights. They have nobly earned the gratitude of the State and they have given . value received for every dollar which the State proposes to spend m providing them with comforts in the eventide of life, and so far from feeling that they are paupers they should rather feel that they are the State's hon ored guests. They have no reason to blush for shame in accepting favors at the hands of the State, because they are rich ly entitled to what the State gives them and they are in no sense mendicants or beggars. . Georgia cannot be too lavish in pro viding comforts for the inmates of the soldiers' home. They will not be with her always, but so long as they are with her they are entitlad to the best which she can give them. Next Time She'll Take the Neck lace. Chicago Chron icle. The wife of one Wall street broker learned a curious lesson during the recent stock whirl. One day her husband saw a chance to make a good turn and plunged. Before going home that evening he was $15,000 richer. "It was like fiuding it," says the broker, "and when I went home I asked my wife to come down with me next morning and buy a $15,000 neck lace 1 had admired. She said that such a purchase would be extravagant and that hf really didn't care for such a necklace, I knew my own wea'i?5s for blowing my money that was velvet, but I caald not convince her that it was wise to buy the necklace. The. next morning when the exchange opened that $15,000 bothered me. I plunged again, n it on my judge ment, but because I happened to have that money, and this time I not only lost it all but half as much more. 1 nave Heverfelt flush enough since that time to indulge in diamond necklaces. My wife has always said that it was her fault and that if I ever offer to buy jeweiry for her again she will accept, even if we have no bread in the house." ' S s UXITED STATES MARSHAL SIMMONS. Hon. F. Simmons, United States Marshal, Mobile, Alabama, speaks in high praise of the merits of Peruna. In a letter written from Washington, D.

" Yours sincerely, F. Simmons. deranged. Every function Is disturbed. Appetite and digestion demoralized. Creeping rigors, hot flashes, cold sweats and fitful sleep linger to make life almost unbearable. Even a slight attack of la grippe sows the seeds of discord and degenera tion all through the system. Recovery seems impossible. The strength does not return. The whole system seems It is this condition that Dr.Hartman calls systemie catarrh. The whole sys tem is saturated with catarrh. Thisdis- covery marked an important advance In the history of medical science. The medical profession had long been grop ing to discover the meaning of the stub born and distressing after-effects of la grippe. All remedies seemed akke inadequate. As soon as Dr.Hartman announced that it was his belief that the after effects of la grippe was simply sys temic catarrh, a great advance was made in the treatment of these cases. It now only remained to find a reliable remedy for systemic catarrh. Here a new difficulty arose. Catarrh had been regarded by many physicians as a local disease and treated solely by ' local remedies. Such physicians knew of no systemic remedy for catarrh. Other physicians regarded catarrh as a blood disease and had been in the habit of treating it with Mood medicine, which could be of no possible rise in systemic catarrh. For a tie Perrma enjoyed the dis tinction of being the only systemic ca tarrh remedy known. It was not even claimed by anyone that there was an other remedy for this exasperating con dition. Since then, however, a great many remedies have been proposed for sys temic catarrh, and a great deal ot val uable time wasted in experimenting with other remedies. But it still re mains true that Peruna is the only spe cific remedy for the after-effects of la grippe. The demand for this remedy, in consequence of the present epidemic of la grippe, is enormous. Mr. J. P. Lowery, proprietorCity Hotel Albany, Texas, says : "Ueing advised to try Peruna for la grippe and asthma, I did so with good results. I had been leenng very unwell lor a long time, ana had a&thma quite bad till I came West, when I got better of the asthma, but was notweH. I tried a gTeat many remedies for it, but nothing was able to cure me. " I took three bottles of Peruna and 1 am happy to say that it is the best med icine I ever used. I am satisfied that Peruna is a good medicine, and as such have commended it to&everal of my frierjds with good results. It is seldom I give a testimonial, but I think this due you. I hopo others may be benefited through you and your medicines." Everyone should read Dr. nartmat's latest lecture on la grippe.

A man who had three sons called them together, and told them that he proposed to make a disposition of his property. He said that he had one hundred and fifty apples, of which he would give fifteen to his youngest son, fifty to his second son, and eighty-five to his eldest son. "Now," he said, "I want you te go out and sell these apples at the same price, and yet each of you bring me the same arcoMt cf mnr-i-, and the -eldest must fix the price. When the congressmen heard this prollem they laughed, as if they were being imposed upoD. "I cannot be done," said one. "Is it a sell?" asked another. "Nothing but the sell of the ap ples," replied Mr. Loudenslager. With this assurance the states men began to work. For a quarter of an hour they figured, and then they gave it up, as the children say. "Well,' said Mr. Ijoudensiager, "the boys went out on the street, and the youngest son met a man who asked him what he would sell his apples for. "Yoa must go to my older broth er," said the boy, and the man did as he was lolJ. I will sell you my apples for one cent a dozen, said the eldest brother. So he sold eighty-four of his apples for seven cents, and bad oue apple left, while the youngest boy sold twelve of his apples for oue cent and had three remaining. "It was then very easy to comply with their father's requirements. The oldest son fixed a price of three cents aoiece for each of , the apples left over. He sold his remaining one for three cents and had ten cents: the secoud boy . sold four dozen of his fifty apples for four cents, and the remaininsr two at three cents each, and had also ten cents; while the youngest brother sold bis remaining three apples for nine cents,-which, added to the one he already had. eave him tea cents.

A special dispatch from Louisville, Ky., ro the New York Tribune says: "A remarkable case that must certainly prove of interest to the medical world generally is contained iu a letter from Dr. B. C. Wilson, r.f Soldier, Ky.,"to Dr. Dr. Samuel E. Woody, professor of chem istry at the Kentucky School of Medi cine.. It relates to' a cafe of spontaneous combustion in counection with the cus tomary treatment of severe burns. The case is fully reported by Dr. Wilson. His letter, in part is as follows. "A child about 5 years old was burned on the fire. The burns in each locality being of moderate severity and stiictly superficial were not sufficient to have caused a fatal result. The burns were HnJ. l.r'.bi following manner: First dusted with subnitrate of bismuth, then linseed oil was freely poured on, and the parts wrapped in cotton batting and a sheet wrapped around it suugly, and lastly, a quilt was wrapped' around this. The child was put to bed and instructions were given not to remove the dressing. Th: child complained bitterly all night long, the parents thinking that the sutler ng was due to the original burn. About daylight they saw smoke aris ing from the bed, but, being very igno rant people, thought it was the "fire leav ing the buro," and did not" remove the dressing until later, when the child was dying. Upon removing the dressing they found the inner aspect of the sheet was scorched, the cotton batting burned almost entirely up (over the abdomen) and still smouldering. The child was burned into the intestines iu three places and died in a few minutes. There was not the least evidence or the remote pos sibility of the second fire originating from the outside, and there was absolutely nothing used but the bismuth and lin seed oil.' 'Ueplying to Dr. Wilson's letter, Dr. Woody wrote hfs opinion, as follows: "Under the circumstances it must have been spontaneous combustion of the lin seed oil. The bismuth subnitrate acd cotton, diyided finely, distributed the oil and exposed a large surface to the action ot the oxygen ot the air. The warmth of the body added to the heat and has tened the oxidation, and the covering cenfinedthe heat until the oxidation be came an actual combustion.' Colonizing Palestine. New York Tribune. If, as is earnestly hoped and somewhat confidently expected, the recent inter view l?tween Dr. Herlzl and the Sultan of Turkey shall prove to be productive of concessions to the Jews who wish to return to the land of their fathers, these home-coming Israelites will find that the way has been made smooth for them by the f iresight of their brethren. The Zi iooist movement, which io its latest phase is practical as weH as sentimental, has a tremendous following and is rapidly in creasing in membership. Details for the re turn to the Holy Land are constantly dis cussed, and nothing remains but to make u so greatly to the Sultan's advantage that he will be willing to give his per mission to colonize as widely as the Jews may wish. Not only have the Zi onists been busy, but organizations which are free from bias one way!Mb-t3t"6? have been working among the Jews al ready resident in Palestine and have cre ated a leaven of expert farmers which would be sufficient to give life to the whole ma-3 ofjeity dwellers who would of course form the bulk of the immigrant popula--tion. There are now about 6j,ooo Jews n the Holy Land, forming about 9 per cent, of the entire population. Thelawa of Turkey as they stand at present for bid the entrance inio Palestine of any ew except for a period of six mouths; not long ago the limit was one month. In all there are 23 colonies in Palestine founded by Jews for Jews, and teaching the members to become expert growers of grapes, orange3, wheat and the like, and to raise cattle according to scientific prin ciples. To float the scheme of the Colo- ial Bank, which is to finance the return whenever the Sultan gives the word, the Zionist clubs, even the pjorest, combine to buy shares. The wish to return Is there, and the money with which to ac complish it. The one thing needful is the consent of the Suitan, and that Dr. Ilertzl is laboring to obtain and may - have brought near. It is not to the inter erest of the movement that he should ak tK soon; but it is at least permit ted to good Zionists to hope. Disrliearleuins. Exchangs.
