I llffiCS WEEKLY LETTER.
BURLESQUE ON A POEM BRINGS
ON A DISCUSSION.
w ?
I MRS. ARP EXPRESSES HERSELF.
0r
William Realizes That He Is Only a
Plain, Unrefined Specimen of the
Genus Homo.
The last letter I had about the poem
[V was anonymous. Of course it was,
for it read?
"Man wants but little here below,
So Young and Goldsmith say;
But woman wants it all, you know
And wants it right away."
. Mrs. Arp was sewing on some infantile
garment as I quietly laid the missive
on her lap. She neither smiled
a nor frowned nor stopped the play of
** * u t <<\r -\

? thej do, but they don't get it nor expect."
"I reckon," said I, "that some stingy
old benedict wrote that; some fellow
who would spend more money on his
horse than on his wife."
"No," said Mrs. Arp, "it was some
old bachelor whose rejected addresses
have made him cynical and like Byron
he vents his revenge in doggerel.
When you go down town I wish you
* would see Mr. Hicks about that dining
room chair. Maybe he can put a new
cane bottom to it. We need it sometimes
when we have company, and
that old sideboard ought to be revarnished
and have new knobs. Do you
know- how old that sideboard is?"
"Yes," said I, "Jim Sumter made it
in 1852. He was one of the best men
and best workmen I ever knew. I
paid him $50 for the sideboard. He
was a well-read, well-bred man, a good
neighbor and a good citizen, and I
have respect for the sideboard. It is
like an epitaph on his .tombstone and
seems to read, 'Sacred to the memory
of ?' Yes, I will see Mr. Hicks about
? the sideboard. Is there anything else
in his line that you want?"
"No," said she, '.'but you know we
are obliged to have another extension
table. We gave ours to Jesse when
she was married, and have been
using one that was left here three
years ago, and now the owner has
settled down and wants it. You had
better attend to this right away."
"Right away, right away," I mused.
"But woman wants it all you know,
And wants it right away."
Mrs. Arp looked ot me and remarked,
"I want these things for you
and the children. It's precious little
that I want for myself now."
I don't think she admires the song
or the sentiment.
"I know it, I know it, my dear,"
said I. "There was a time when you
wanted a good deal for yourself and it
pleased me to gratify your every wish
and more than you asked for. Nothing
i was too good for you when I had the
money. Silks and sables, lawns and
muslins, a carriage and horses, Wilton
carpets and damask curtains, and so
forth, and so on, et cetera, e pluribus
xxnnm. But anno domini kept rolling
WA? n on?1 T r?iOAArnrA/1

that you were gradually losing your
concern for yourself, and all your care
was for your children. I was ruminating
about this while you were
stitching away so earnestly upon that
little garment, for now your love and
care have lapped over to another
generation. The little grandchildren
have come in for a share of your
maternal love, and your personal
wants have come down to a minimum.
Of course you must be clothed as
becomes the maternal head of numerous
and lovely offspring, for if
you are not a queen you have reigned
in our home nearly as long as Queen
Victoria has in England and?"
"Well, that will do now," said my
wife. "You had better go to town.
Aunt Ann says the rice is out and the
cowfeed too."
"I was ruminating," said I, "how
P fortunate it was that your ambition
surrendered about the time my money
did. You ceased to crave as fine things
as I used to get you. You adapted
your wants to our misfortunes. Why,
forty years ago I would not have let
you go about in that grizzly gray muslin.
I had a contempt for cheap things,
especially for you; didn't I, my dear?"
"You certainly did," she said with
a kind of sad, reminiscent smile in
her tone of voice, "but this muslin is
fgood enough now. But you had better
go to town. There are four little
grandchildren hereto dinner,and Aunt
Ann wants the rice right away."
"And wants it right away," I hummed
to the tune of "Auld Lang Syne."
Somehow I can't get that refrain out
of my mind?"And wants it right
way."
Sometimes I think that men don't
understand nor appreciate woman's
fi' nature. She was created with a love
for the beautiful, for ornament, for
gems, jewels and gold and silverware
ad damask and fine linen.
She cau't help her nature, and this
very nature proves that she is nearer
heaven than we are. What do I care
for diamonds? Not a cent. I wouldn't
give a dollar for a bushel of them. An
old-fashioned lin waiter with flowers
painted 011 it is as good as a silver one
to me. I wouldn't wash the windowglass
more than once a year, and a
wash-pan suits me as well as a china
basin. But I recognize the fact that I
f . am a man with an unrefined nature.
The twelve gates of the new Jerusalem
that are made of precious stones are
no attraction to me; neither are the
gold-paved streets that St. John saw
' in his vision. Bnt still I have hope
of getting there and becoming more
refined, for I do iovc flowers and

pretty birds and orange trees and
luscious fruits anil beautiful scenery
and mountains and the great
waters of the mighty sea. My
wife and my daughters can spend
half a day in looking at the beautiful
things in the show windows in Atlanta,
but I never stop to gaze or to admire,
except, perhaps, to look at the
photographer's display or the life-like
models of lovely women that seem
smiling at my three-score and ten.

that all good men have reverence for
womankind and are conscious of her
better nature, her better morals and
emotions. Shakespeare and Scott
write of women as ministering angels.
Wadsworth says of her creation:
"A perfect woman nobly planned.
To warn, to comfort and command."
No great poet save such a rake as
Byron would have written:
"As well believe a woman, or an epitaph,
Or any other thing that's false."
Even Solomon in all his glory with
his wives and concubines said:
"Young man, rejoice with the wife of thy
Jouth, and be thou always ravished with
er love."
Edward W. Bok says in The Ladies'
Home Journal, "No economy is so
false and misguided as that which
seeks to withhold one pleasure from
the life of a good woman, a true wife
or a loving mother. The best home a
man can give her becomes tiresome if
she is asked to live in it and stay in it
365 days in a year. The Lord knows
that woman's life is hard enough. She
travels a path of endurance and suffering
to which the average man is an
* -A T<1 ? ? mats
enure biniuger. iucu ici uo mauo
that path as pleasant, as easy and as
bright as possible. Every dollar that
a man spends on his home for the
happiness and comfort of his wife will
come back to him four-fold."
That is true?all true. Better mend
the broken pane or that sash cord or
that gate latch and sometimes take an
hour off from business and take her to
ride. The Odd Fellows and Masons
and Knights of Pythias are good insti1
tutions,brft should not come in between
a man and his wife. The mother wants
help with the children, for I tell you,
my brethren, there is no care nor
anxiety like nursing and caring for a
little child, and nobody but a mother
will do it willingly. A mother who
has reared eight or ten children from
infancy to maturity, and four years of
the time during a pitiless war, when
she had to flee from the foul invader
with her little ones and hide them,
half clad and always hungry, can say
with Paul, "I have fought a good
fight; I have finished my course." Yes,
Paul said t^at, but he was an old

mother suffers. The most pathetic
J line in all poetry is that of Fitz-Greene
Halleck, where he apostrophizes death:
"Come to the mother when she feels
[ For the first time her first-born's breath."
The death of a young mother in childbirth
is the saddest of all nature's
calamities.
Maternal love?maternal interest!
What is it that so inspires a woman to
bear her fate?to suffer and be strong?

BAYARD'S GOLD CUP.
Presented to the Ex-Ambassador by
the American Society in London.
The marvelous gold loving cup which
was presented to Thomas Francis Bayard
at the banquet tendered him in
London by the American Society is a

Thanksgiving Day. The enormous vegetable
was grown by Capt. Kramer,
of the Third New York Cavalry. The
cup's cover is surmounted by* a por-,

IConqncrlntr Prejudice*.
Prejudices, which are from wilhln,
cause more poverty than calamities,
which are from without. Many a man
whose life has been disturbed by pliysl1
cal dlsaater has been brought to destitution
by prejudices, which are the
thieves of mental and spiritual treasure,
as procrastination Is the thief of
time. We pity the feeble creature who
has been prejudiced against apples by
an untoothsome crab apple; but those
who are by no means feeble-minded
have been prejudiced against stmtlment
j by sentimentality, against emotion by
erootlont.llty. And yet, without sentl

noble and tender feeling; without emotion
thought would never be "in a

enlarges his borders, and recovers
many stolen goods.

Bicycle Prices Fall.
After several years of exorbitantly
large profits the manufacturers of
bicycles have been compelled to very
largely reduce their prices. The public
actually refused to longer pay $100
for a machine which can be built for
one-quarter that amount.
A few makers saw this some time
ago and put on the market cheaper
machines at very greatly reduced
prices which so cut into the business
of the higher priced manufacturers
that in pure self-defense they were
compelled to bid good-bye to their old
high prices.
Why shonld not the same thing ocmtr

no doubt cost considerably loss to produce
than bicycles, and yel some -of
them are selling at the ridiculously
high price of $100. It is fair to infer
that a machine which sells al $50 costs
close to $15 to manufacture.
If a few large department stores in
New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago,
etc., would arrange for large
quantities to be manufactured for them
by some one outside of a Trust the
prices would come down to reasonable 4
figures as bate those of bicycles.

TVafhlng a Fine Art.
Ever since spinning was a type of womanly
industry, from age to age it has been
expected that beautiful apparel should
clothe women. TO keep dainty belongings
in good order it Is necessary to have them
{troperly laundered. This Is especially true
n the laundering of pretty summer gowns,
which is now quite a fine art. To do the
work properly, fill a ;;ub two-thirds full of
warm water, dissolve the fourth of & cake
of Ivory Soap (which will not fade the most
delicate colors), add it to the water; wash
the articles through it, rinse first in clear
and then in blue water; wring, dip in thin
starch, shake oat and hang on the line in
the shade. When dry, sprinkle and iron.
Gowns thus laundered will retain their
freshness the entire season.
