PLEA FOR MODEL SCHOOL. What it Will be to the Section Where Located- IMPROVED SCHOOL WORK- Ladv From the Country a Strong Advocate of the Proposed Model School, After Mr. Branson’s admirable talk at the tabernacle it would seem superfluous to aad a word as to what is needed in our country schools. Fearing however, that many of our county people may have missed that good talk, and lest perhaps some who were there might forget, we make another appeal to the good people of the county to interest themselves in the financial side of this question and see if the money cannot be raised to have this model school. The idea is to train the hand along with the head. The girls will be taught cooking and sewing, this includes plain and fancy needle work by the best of teachers, there by lightening the burdens of after life and making their homes all the better fo c is systematic training, which the r poor hard worked mothers would gladly, but cannot give them under present conditions. Whatever tends to brighten or bet ter home life elevates citizenship for love of home means love of country. Both boys and girls will be taught the basket or willow work which now finds such a ready sale, is easily learned and the materials are found on nearly every farm in the country. They will take read ily to t iese industries and find the change from brain to hand work restful during the school hours. Other handicrafts will be taught the boys which will not only aid in developing brains and hand simul taneously but materially aid in get ting and maintaining the homes over which those girls some day preside. In time we hope for a thorough system of agricultural training under the most approved methods. What we do well we love to do is as true in country life as in the highest art, and when boys are taught agriculture as a science simplefied they will love the work and farm successfully the lands which are now going to ruin in the hands of irresponsible negro ten ants. Improve the . condition of the country people by giving them these training schools and the boys and girls will remain on the farms, making skilled working men and women in their different depart ments, in a little while more than doubling in the returns what has been done for them. Now co-operation is the power which accomplishes satisfactory results for communities. The good that will come to the coun ty people from these schools will soon be felt by the business people of the town and cities, so that any aid they may give to this work wiii more than double in its returns to them. Many of these boys and girls have talents or “bents” which only need developing through these training schools to make accom plished men and women of them in their different spheres This work has long since passed the experi mental stage being thoroughly es tablished by the good results, and we would do well to profit by the experience and example of Ger many and New England. Let us know' this era “and what it bids us do” by placing these opportunities within the reach of the boy and girls of our county. Let us be up and doing with a firm determina tion to have this school; make it a successful and a crowning glory to Bartow county. County. Who Owned the Rabbit, New York Commercial. A Frankfort, Ky., man, lunch ing last Saturday with a party of dry goods men at the Arkwright club, got engaged in a discussion of the Schley-Sampson matter, and before the controversy got very heated or acute, he was reminded of a tale that has been circulating down in the Blue Grass country, and is known as the Proctor Knott “Rabbit Story.” “Ex-Governor Protor Knott and John Yerkes,” he said, having agreed to tell the tale, “were dis cussing the claims of Sampson and Schley to the credit of smashing Cervera at Santiago. Mr. Yerkes took the ground that all the honor of that memorial conflict belonged to Admiral Sampson, and was in clined to entirely ignore Commo dore Schley’s pait in the affair. Ik " Th governor listened until his companion had finished, and then, with that characteristic twinkle in his eyes, said: “My dear sir, it is exceedingly gratifying to me to hear you take the position you have in the matter. It is like a balm to my conscience and settles a point that has worried me many a day. I was walking through the woods once with a boy friend of mine, when we saw a rabbit run into a sinkhole. We stood around the hole a while, then I told the boy to keep watch while I went to get some fire to smoke the rabbit out. When I returned the boy had the rabbit. I took it away from him claiming that it belonged to me because I told him to catch it if it came out. That was over fifty years ago and you arethe first man who has ever agreed with me that the rabbit was mine. I feel now that I was right in taking it, and ray conscience is at rest.’ “Mr. Yerkes looked solemn for a few moments, then smiled a fee ble smile and changed the su’ ject. The Farmer and the ftoundlap Bale- Under its new management the business of the American Cotton Company is being vigorously push ed. The southern fanner is fast coming to see that his interests and those of the American Cotton Company lie in the same direction. Every unnecessary expense in marketing cotton is that much ta ken out of the farmer’s pockets, and eyery dollar he saves by hav ing his cotton put up in roundlap bales is that much added to his profits. The American Cotton Company’s interest lies in enabling the presses it builds to bale as much cotton as possible. In order to se cure this result it is essential that cotton grow’ers shall continue to find advantage in the use of these presses There is no requirement that a single bale of cotton be sold to the American Cottan Company. Roundlap bales, with all of their advantages, can be bought in open competition by any responsible buyer and handled through to the mills, but whenever the ordinary cotton buyer declines to purchase roundlap bales on this basis the American Cotton Company stands ready to buy them. The farmer who hauls bis seed cotton to a roundlap gin may re tain as complete control over it as if he took it to an old-style ginnery. He can sell his cotton with or with out the seed, or he can have it cus tom ginned (selling or keeping the seed) and hold his roundlap bales until he is ready to sell, with the assurance that they are always salable at the full market value of roundlap cotton. The American Cotton Company makes liberal ad vances on held roundlap bales. Lewis Ockerman, Goshen. Ind: “DeWitt’s Little Early Risers never bend me do ible like other pills, but do their work thorough ly and make me feel like a boy.” Certain thorough, gentle. CABTOIIIA., Bears the yO Kind You Have Always Bought As True as Gospel. We may stand on the highest hill if we are only willing to take the steps enough. If life is so sweet that we are un willing to part with it, how comes in its bitter part. When a man agrees with you in everything, he will bear watching when your back is turned. We must be as courteous to a man as we are to a picture, when we are willing to give it the advan tage of a good light. We love characters in propor tion as they are impulsive and spontaneous. The less a gian thinks or knows about his virtues, the better we like him. Learning prepares and, in a measure, takes the place of experi ence, on the other hand, is the best means of understanding and ap preciating the results of learning and the wisdom of the ages.

Take the right remedy in time. Allen’s Lung Balsam is free from opium. “I had long suffered from indi gestion,” writes G. A.

Dahlonega, Ga., Sept. 24. —Dah- lonega’s new mining company, the Crown Mountain, is running day and night. This company uses the falls of the Chestatee river, sixteen miles away to generate electric power for its pumps and mills. The dirt and pebbles washed down by the “giants” are conveyed down long sluices to the stamp mill at the foot of the mountain. Some of these “giants” are run by force of gravity from the reservoir on top of the mountain.mrhieh is filled by pumps on the river, and others, too near the top of the mountain for the force of gravity are run by compressed air, compressed by elec tricity. The plates are showing good re sults and the stock of the company has gone up rapidly. In fact, there is none of the stock for sale at present. The college students have got down to regular work, and the city schools are over-crowded. “More haste, less speed,” and “hasten slowly,” are proverbs born of experience that some things can’t be hurried without loss and waste. That is specially true of eating. The railway lunch habit, “five minutes for refreshments,” is a habit most disastrous to the health. You may hurry your eat ing. You can’t hurry your diges tion, and the neglect to allow pro per time for this important func tion is the beginning of sorrows to many a busy man. When the ton gue is foul, the head aches, when there are sour or bitter risings, un due fullness after eating,hot flush es, irritability, nervousness, ir resolution, cold extremities, and other annoying symptoms, be sure the stomach and organs of diges tion and nutrition have ‘ broken down.” Nothing will re establish them in active healthy operation so quickly as Dr, Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It strengthens the stomach, nourishes the nerves, purifies the blood, and builds up the body. It is a strictly temper ance medicine containing no alco hol or other intoxicant, Given away.

All women sensibly desire to be attractive. Beauty is the stamp of health because it is the outward mamfestation of inner purity. A healthy woman is always attract ive, bright and happy. When ev ery drop of blood in the veins is pure a beauteous flush is on the cheek. But when the blood is im pure, moroseness, bad temper and a sallow complexion tells the tale of sickness, all tco plainly. And women today know there is no beauty without health. Wine of Cardui crowns women with beauty and attractiveness by making strong and healthy those organs which make her a woman. Try Wine of Cardui, and in a month your friends will hardly know you.
