It is Said
"Some men are bom great, some achieve
> greatness, and seme have greatness thrust
upon them." Th s might have been true when
advancement came through the favor of
I Kings and Queens. But In this American
republic and in this ninteenth century there Is
but one way for a man to become great. He
' must achieve greatness, and no man can
achieve greatness without education.
With education the pborest boy may become
the greatest man. though we can not all be
■ president. The most important question is:
Would we be prepared to perform the duties of
a great office if it were thrust upon us? We
probably would If we should do as
One Great President
did. He Is said to have, as his constant
. companion, fha Encyclopaedia Britannica.
He Is even said to have kept a set in his
private car while making a campaign tour.
This mark of diligence and intelligence made
f him n\any friends and admirers.
There is a great principle involved in this
Idea. If you look up just one question each
day you will soon become an educated
1 person, and you learn to enjoy it.
These questions should be investigated
right when they come up, while your mind is
curious: then you won’t forget what you read—
I you can’t if you try.
But to do this you need the Encyclopaedia
Britannica, and The Atlanta Constitution
is ready to assist you by offering this great
library for
A Limited Time
at a remarkably low introductory rate, and on
terms so easy as to place it within the reach
of every boy or girl.
Only io cents dropped each day into the
little dime registering savings bank, which we
present to each subscriber, will give you this
king of Cyclopaedias in any style of binding
you may choose.
We are permitted to make this offer for a
limited time only. If you want the

To one of lhe B-lievue cells
I there came one morning a woman
i bearing the übuml permit to visit
a patient. She whs a slender little
woman with a look of (.elicate re
finement that sorrow had only in
ensified, and the looked at the
physician, who was just leaving
the patient, with char eyes which
had wept often, but kept their
steady strait-forward gaze.
“I am not certain,’’ she said, “I
have searched for my boy for a
long while, and I think he must be
here. I want to see him.’’
The doctor looked at her pitiful
ly as she went up to the narrow
bed where the patient lay, a lad ol
hardly twenty, with his face buried
in the pillow. His hair, waving
crisply against the skin, browned
by exposure, nad not been cut, for
the hospital bartier who stood
there had found it bo far impossi
ble to make him turn his head.
“He’s lain that way ever since
they brought him yesterday.” said
the barber, and then moved by
something in the agitated face be
fore him, turned his own way. The
mother for it is quite plain who
this must be, stooped over the
prostrate figure. She knew it as
mothers know their own, aud laic
her hand on his burning brow.
‘‘Charley.” she said softly, as it
she had come into his room to
rouse him from some boyish sl<ep,
‘‘mother is here.”
A w ild ciy rang out that startled
even the experienced physician.
“For God’s sake take hei
away I She doesn’t know where J
am! Take her away !”
The patient had started up ano
wrung his hands in piteous entrea
ty-
“Take her away! ’ he still cried,
hut his mother gently folded hei
arms about him and drew his
head to her breast. “Oh, Charley,
I have foiiuti you,’she said through
her sobs, ’T will never lose you
again.”
The lad looked at her a moment
His eyes were like hers, large and
clear, but with the experience of t
thousand years in their d .pth ; a
beautiful reckless face, with liuei
graven by passion and crime. Then
he burst into weeping like a chile .
“Il’s too late 1 ” “It’s too late!’
he said iu tones almost inaudable.

Ab he spoke he fell buck upon
hie pillow ; his face changed »nd
the unmistakable hue of death
suddenly spread over hie handsome
teatures. The doctor came forward
quickly, a look of auxious surprise
on hie face.
“I didn’t know he was that
bad,” the barber muttered under
his breath, as he gazed at the lad
still holding his mothers hand.
The doctor lifted the patient’s
head and then laid it back eottly
Life had fled.
“It’s better to have it so,” he
said in a low voice to himself and
then stood silently and reverently,
ready to offer consolation to the
bereaved mother whose face was
still hidden in her boys breast. She
did not stir Something in the mo
tionless attitude aroused vague
suspicion in the mind of the doc
