HOW IIKVBI OP THE Ml Ml.
The best way to bring the human
mind up from its infancy to revai
manhood and womanhood is a prot
lem yet unsolved. Wiiile this sub
ject lias been under discussion by on
wisest men and women for many
years, yet, It has not been settled up
on in any particular measure. It
a subject which Contains a great deal
Of deep thoughtJin fact deeper than
the writer will overt be able 'oread
However, as every oue has a right to
express their own ideas about it 1
will say a few words relative to the
matter.
The mind is like the body in every
sense of the word. If the body is
not nourished with the various van
elies of food it will perish. And t
the mind does not have the opporum
ity of partaking of the vat to.u
branches of literature, for which all
minds have more or less hunger, it
will certainly, gradually go to naught.
Even as the body is fed with meats,
breads, etc., to make the person
strong physically, so also feed the
mind with such literature as would
strengthen him mentally.
A parent will send hi* child to
school for not more than five montl s
per year, during which time the teach
er will stuff Ills mind with a few facts
in geography, history, etc., and per
haps that is all the nourishment the
mind has during the whole year
And tell me if you will what thing
is it that can live by eating one diet
live mouths and fasting seven in eac)
year ? My friends, we are starving
the human mind to death. Just
think one moment and I believe you
;an very readily account for the weak
minds of our land and countrv todav.
Another important question is,
With what kind of literature feed
the mind ? Feed the mind upon a
solid, firm and healthy literature ev
en as you feed the body on solid,
healthy food. A body that is hab
ited to eating trash continues to grow
weaker, and finally perishes; so it is
with a mind that is given to reading
trash—novels, etc.
So deliver the mind from eating
trash, even as you deliver the body.
The next and last important point
to remember is, “How to feed the
mind.” Feed it regularly even as
you feed the body regularly. My
friends, if your ch'ldren are in school
they need good books and papers to
read. You know a healthy body, a
strong body changes diet often, So
also it is with the mind that has dif
ferent kinds of food. Parents, buy
your children good books to read if
you wish that they be strong men
tally.
Hoping every one will give the
matter a careful consideration and
hasten to the development of the
minds of the rising generation that
the world may be brighter and there
tore be happier and wiser, I remain,
Lytle Gholson.

“Well, to Savannah,” and off we

What do you reckon I had for my
dinner while in Africa?—a boa con

thought of how I jumped ten feet

This is like some boys and myself

Richard Bolton.
The Missouri legislature has passed
a compulsory education law. Other
states will have to come to it after
awhile. It is not a very popular doc
trine, to be sure, on account of the
false cry of “paternalism,” but com
pulsory education is better than com
pulsory ignorance—and there are
thousands of children in Georgia
who, under present conditions, are
compelled to be ignorant. Compelled
to go without uu education because
they are forced to earn a living for
themselves and sometimes for others,
almost from the time they are weaned
until the great In mercy closes over
them. Compulsory education may
be a form of paternalism, but there
are conditions existing in Georgia, as
well a in other southern states, to
day tlia,t is the very essence of com
mercial slavery. Which is worse ?

Snider, of Crittenden, Ky., .“it seem

could get a doctor, so we gave it Dr.
King’s New Discovery, which gave
quick relief and permanently cured it.
