A WIFE'S ' DEVOTION , [ Fem the Atlanta Constitution. ] Several years ago when Jndgo S , , ( hen of the superior court , wss holding his court at Forsyth , Monroe county , Qi. , two brothers , residents of Gwlnnett county , wore brought before him , charged with horso-stoallng , The CMC against the two men waa pl ln indeed. The old nun from whom ho horse was stolen , with his wife and daughter , were Introduced each In their urn on the stand swore strong and strlk- ngly alike us to the thief , the identity of ho horse and of both men. Absolutely nothing in rebuttal could to produced by the counsel tor the do- once , except the testimony of a woman , ho young wlfo of ono of the priionors , and the daughter of the old man from whom the horse was stolen. Her story , as told to her attorney , wai so strange and nnroaaonablo that ha begged she would not go to the stand with It , oaring Its effect upon judge nnd ury. To the pltading of the lawyer she urnod n deaf oar , and rising without bo ng bid said aloud , "My Innocent bus- land's liberty la at stake , I must , 1 will peak for him. " Judge S. , who up to this time had not noticed the woman , now , > niog to her manner cf tpaoch and seem- ngly intense sympathy and love for her lusband , called her to the [ stand , ruling 'she should testefy in behalf of her has- tand'a brother and make a statement" or her husband. The Bible waa handed her , and she kistcd with a smack that might have been heard a block nway. Then tremblingly removing from her head ts old Shaker covering , and very care- ally unwinding a much-worn nnd tattor- id Owinuott red shanl which she hold in ler arms , she exposed to the vlow of D roatly audience 2-month-old [ surprised a - - ; uby boy , who was hid away somewhere n the folds of that lingo shawl. The un winding process completed , she hurriedly dcp-.s ted both baby and covering In a on the table In front cf her , and with a degree of determination In her face , ex- > rees9d only In the lines of Sbakespare : 'I shall remember when Crojot n ys do this , it is perfjrmod , " aho fronted the jury. Said she : 'I have sworn to toll the truth. I un derstand fully the enormity and monnnoea of tolling a Ho. I am a God-fearing woman , and I ballovo every word in that > oed bcok there on the table , and if what . tell you now about this caao bo not trno may God In Bit wrath this moment strike mo dumb ere I utter another word , and make mo eufidr the moat violent death hat could befall a human , May I turn rom this 'stand'when I have finished and cok upon that baby mine my only ono , whom I love , next to husband , bator - or than my life , and find It cold In death. "Two years ago my father , who sits ever tboro , and now accuses my husband of stealing his horse , Bent to Gwinnott ounty for me , insisting that I should omo and nurse him through an attack of ho rheumatism. Be and my mother had ilways bean very hard with Tom ( my msband ) and I , but Tom now persuaded me to go , eayiag it was my father who raa sick , and it was my duty to go to lim , I went and remained two months or more until ho recovered. While at my father's the 'glanderV got among ho stock In the neighborhood , and after a while a calt belonging to my father ought the disease. A consultation of ho fami'y was hold , and it was decided o kill the colt , hoping thereby to pro- ent the remainder cf the horses on the arm from catching it. "I pleaded for the colt's life , and told my father to put it to itself away from he other horses , and I wonld feed and ry to cnro It. Ho did as I asked , and I mrsod the colt back to health. When . ' was leaving homo , going back to my msband , my father told mo In presence of both my mother and sister , as I had avod the colt's life , he wonld give It tome mo and would keep it for me , as ho had [ oed pasturageuntil it grow largo enough o work. Hero the matter rotted , and I bought no more of it nntll two weeks ego , when I received a letter from my other stating that the colt was ready for rork but my mother and sis er were unwilling for mo to have it. Bo aid ho thought it beat for mo to send my husband and his brother after the colt , tolling them to take it from the lasturo and not to let my mother and my Istorknow about it. "Owing to our extreme poverty and need of a horse , Tom decided to do as my father bid , and last Thursday night week ago ho and his brother reached ur homo in Gwlnnett with the colt , now jrown to bo a horao. The same that I lursed through the 'glanderV at my ather's two years ago ; the same that my Athor then gave mo in presence of my mother and sister , now there by his side , nd tha same , judge , that my father now ays my husband stole from nlm , v "This la all there Is of it , " she said , nd dropping her head , which during the ccilal ot her story had been as erect as tie "proudest etoed of the pralrlo , " she lowly loft the stand. "Tho letter , " of oureo , was asked for , but could not ba reduced. The woman said she had oat it. The jury were "out" only a few mo ments , returning a vordiot of guilty , and ho men were tontenced to ton yean In he penitentiary. As the last words of ho sentence were uttered by tno judge he wlfo sprang to her feet , and facing ler father and mother and young sister , rom her lips such a curse fell as filled with horror all who Leard it. Turning text to her husband , she gave him a long , ait embrace and held up the baby for lim to kUa. Then to the judge she said , < I will find the letter , sir , and bring it o you , " nnd with n heart-broken look , > ut firm step , she passed through the crowd to the street. The prisoners were sent off next day to begin their life of errltude. And soon tbo scene In the courtroom , the tad face of the wife , the ) aby , red shawl and all were forgotten. Hoveral weeks later a woman entered .ho judge's office in Forsyth , her f ice lushed with excitement and beaming with joy. It was the wife of tbo man convicted of hursa stealing. She had [ ound tl "letter" and had walked with tier baby In her arms all the way from Gwinnett to Monroe to bring it to the jndga. Judge S , after closely ex- amiuiog the documents , was satisfied il was genuine , and took Immediate etopi to secure more evidence in the matter , This was easily accomplished and the father of the woman , on ben ! { confronted with the evidence procnrod bj the judge , finally admitted that he hac written tbo letter. The next train t < At'anta brought Judge S with it and no time was lost In submitting Ui < matter to the governor , who Instant ) ; iisned a pardon for the two men. Only a few abort yoirs have pasiei < lnce this occurrence , but time onoug ! bhu intervened for the wife's prayers t e answered ; time enough for tbo partle who swore avsy , her huib nd's good name and liberty to have reaped on over whelming cup of mliory , degradation and thirao.

" \Vhcro Ollcnnte , Coffee mid Chocolate Bait the Most Fastidious. The country along the Spanish main , says n correspondent of the Boiton Llor- ftld , from Trinidad to the Isthmaa , la a mixture of Florida and Switzerland , where ono can find within the radius of a single day's journey nny clime or acono to suit his taste , from a tropical jungle , s warmIng - Ing with tigers and alligators , to moun tain creats crowned with eternal snow. At the very edge of the ocean , within plain view from the decks of pasting ves icle , rise peaks which roach above the clouds , whose snow-capped snramits acorn to hang in the air. Ono cf thorn , the Nevada do la Santa Marta , ia 17,000 feet high. Between theoo mountains , along the coast , ore nnrrorr valleys of the most luxurious tropical vcrdcra and the rich est soil , which yield three harvests an nually , and are densely populated. Cof fee , sugar and chocoUto arc the staples of the lower region , called "tUrra callenta" ( hot hod ) . Corn , beans , and ether tem perate z > no products are raited on the mountain aide , and higher up on the plains , 7,000 and 8,000 feet above the sea. are thousands of goats and cattle. The coffdo plantations extend from the coast far up Into the mountains , and are very prolific. The people hero claim to raise the bo&t coffee in the worldand , it la a singular fact , asserted by the exporter * , that only the p > orost grade goes to the United States , whllo all of tbo better quality is sent to Prance andGarmtny. Just why this la so no cno explain * , further than repeating the remark BO often made that the Americans do not li'io good coffee. Another curious fact Is that chocolito costs mote here than It does in Now York hero where It is grown aud manufac tured. Thla is more reasonable , for It is well known that there is very little of the genuine artlctlo is sold in our market. The cjcoa phut ii an odd sort of affair. It has great wax like leave and resembles a small magnolia tree. Upon its trunk and larger limbs tliero ap pears soml-annually a largo number of wart-like protuberances about as largo as the smallest pineapple. They are Dgly looking parasites , bat like many other ugly things hiin a value and usefulness. At first they are greou , but when they get red the natives pick them off , crush them in a rude machine , and take from each a handful cf seeds about the slzo and shape of a limi Loan. This Is the cocoa. When the beans are thoroughly dried in the tunthey are shipped to the msrket in gunny tacks , where the chocolate manufacturer cuts hold of them. He grinds thorn iuto a fine powder , of a gray color , that looks like graham flour , mixes it with the pure juice of the aagar-oano , called "paplllion , " and flavors the mixture with the juice of the vanilla bean. After being boiled for a certain length of time , this ii poured into moulds and allowed to when it becomes the chocolate of omtnerco. The Caracas chocolate , as all the pro- net of Venezuela la termed , is considered bo best In the world. It costs 05 cents pound at the factories there , but can > o purchased for 45 or GO cents a pound n Now York. The best cocoa beans are 0 cents a pound here , bat the Yankee manufacturer has a way of increasing tiolr weight and reducing their value > y adulteration. Pipe clay Is cheap and toavy , end It la supposed to bo h armlets t weighs about five times as much as ocoa , and as the profit of hger beer Is In ho fcam , so is the profit In chocclato in iipo clay , or whatever tubstanco ii may > o mixed with.

"There's always some fool to jump off , train and get hurt , " said the brake man , 'and frequently the one that jumps is uat the man wo always claims that ho mows better and gives other people ecturers for their foplhsrdlnees I'll never forgot a little thing that happened one day as wo wore going into Indfanap- olii. On the train was a slier Iff who had n charge thiee imbeciles whom ho was .aking to tno asylum. They were not mudcnffed nor tied In any way , but were permitted to run about the car just as hey wanted to. On beard was a passenger who complained about this a gopd deal.

' " The Dnngcrfl of Blood Poisoning. Slnco the death of President Garfield there sootno ti have been an increase It the number of recorded coses of blooc poisoning , A few -weeks ago the Rev.

If a man bo in good health a wound heals rapidlyIf ; the blood la corrupt , It Is slow Lo heal. Impure blood Irritates and In- Hamos the whole tyatom. It follows then , if the blood purifying organs are deranged since every particle of blood zoursoj through these organs over ono tinndrod times an hour In a very sborl time the blood poiion must destroy al vitality. In the winter season Nature demands boat making food ; In the spring she sots np a cooling process ; and to accomplish this , she ordains that the change from winter to summer shall bo gradual , if her laws wore never violated this provision wonld ba sufficient ; they are violated , therefore , wo must furnish her help in the spring houaa-cloauing time ; other wise the seeds of disease remain within us , Blood is mode In the stomach ; it is purified by the skin , lungsliver and kid neys are overworked ; the consequence is that in the tprlng theao organs are prot- tritod ; the prostration la Indicated by extremely - tromely dull , heavy foelingi an a woarl- nois which seems to go to the bone ; boat aches , furred tongue , lack of appetite , ichlng nnd discolored tkln , mental irtit- abihty , depression of spirits , uournlgle pains , convulsion1 , chills and fever , "malaria " Thojo little Irregularities of fooling are Nature's warnings ; if neglected , disease may get the upper hand. If you Intro- luce into the blood a little klduiy and Ivor poison , you on artificially prcduco ; ho above symptoms ; it follows , therefore .hat to remove them , vitality must bo re stored to those blood purlfjing organs.
