The country weeklies have a val¬
ue greatly beyond the conception
of any one who has not given the
matter careful consideration.
Tiie} r occupy a place in country
homes as close and influential
that of the country doctor. Noth¬
ing has been found to supplant
them, and nothing ever will be
found to do so. They tell the
story of local happenings so dear
to local readers without which the
week’s record is never complete.
Fifty millions of people live out¬
side the large cities—50,000,000 of
country people. It is the local
country weekly which reaches
them,—Stowart County News.
Edward Everett Hale said at a
banquet in'New York that he had
been to only two primary elections
in the eighty years of his life, and
was not inclined to think his going
to these did any good. He is only
a type of many thousands who
would better deserve the title of
citizens if, instead of despairing
at tin perversion of the existing
political machinery, they united¬
ly strove first to master and then
to better it —Philadelphia Times.

A Hopeful flovement,
Wfiat Georgia Connties Are Doing to
hp Their Schools.
The Federation, of Woman’s
Clubs of Georgia some months ago
offered to supplement the -funds
that were raised by any county in
the state to establish model rural
schools. Nearly twenty comities
have already responded and the
first of these schools has been
opened in Madison county, with
three well trained teachers.
In addition to the common
school subjects, cooking, school
gardening an l various handicrafts
will be taught, and a school liKra
ry, a mother’s club and a fort
nightly institute will be organized.
Pres. PL C. Branson of the Geor¬
gia State Normal has recently or¬
ganized one of these schools eight
miles from the railroad. He states
that the community of 200 peo¬
ple raised nearly $1,000 for
this school, “We have a three
roomed school house,” he writes,
“weatherboarded and equipped
with modern furniture. We are
building an adjunct for cooking
and shop work. We opened the
school yesterday with eighty-six
pupils and every father and moth¬
er in a radius of five miles was
here.”

the cause of such troubles. O. E.
Hooper, Albany, Ga , says: “I
took DeWitt’s Little Early Risers
for billiousness. They were just
what I need* d. Iam feeling bet¬
ter now than in years.” Never
gripe or distress. Safe, thorough
and gentle. The very best pill*.

A Century of Education.
Our Progress Since 1800.
The United States began the
nineteenth century with an avei*
age of 82 days of schooling for
each person. They begin thetwen*
tieth century with an average of
908 days of schooling for each per*
•on. The rate of increase is shown
by the following figures taken
from the report of the United
States Commissioner of Edttca*
tion : Beginning with 82 days in
1800, the rate Itad increased to 288
days in 1840 ; 480 days in 1860;
672 days in 1870; 792 days in
1880 ; 892 days in 1890 ; 998 days
in 1900. The estimate includes
instruction in the common schools
and colleges. The average for the
eleven Southern states in 1900 was
488, or about the same as that for
the whole country in 1860. •
A certain loving couple who
were buggy riding were enjoying
one another’s company as only a
P a * r lovers can, one of the
young man’s arms encircled tne
waist of the maiden, while his
free hand held the lines, when a
certain farmer with his head tip*
ped up so as to bring his eyes i«t
range with the young coupls, gazed
at the occupants of the carriage
who, feeling a little cheap from
the old man’s gaze, cried: “Rub¬
ber! rubber.”
Rub er yerself, you darned fool,
you are the one that’s holdin’ of
her, was the farmer’s quick retort.
