the gulf states as on the Atlantic seaboard.
Clubbed with The Atlanta Constitution, we have the superb FREE OFFERS shown
fr6m which you may make your choice of one;
(r) Talks From Farmers to Farmers, a symposium of Southern farm knowledge that
should be in the hands of every practical farmer, young or old. The articles have all ap¬
peared in Tri-Weekly Constitution under same title and made one of the greatest features of
this splendid farmers' paper. Tt will be mailed to you immediately upon receipt of order.
(2) The Southern Ruralist, one of the best agricultural papers in the south. It is a
semi-monthly edited by a farmer on his own farm, and is intensely practical and helpful.
( 3 ) Paris Modes, a woman's magazine, monthly. There are fashions in it, as the title
indicates, and they are right up to date. Do not think they' are all of the sylph-like, hipless,
clothes-pin styles of the extreme devotees of the changeable flirt called “Fashion.” They
are all prettv and becoming and up to date, so that the ladies may feel well-dressed and in
the style who follow them. But yon get more than mere fashions. There are stories, poems,
storvettes, incidents of travel, seasonable articles for entertainments, home keeping, cookery,
care of the person, sanitation and hygiene, plant culture and all the rest that go to make up
a monthly feast for the busy woman who reads as she works, who relaxes from one task and
finds charm in the ever-varying features of woman’s work that is said to be never done.
