The news of the country, state, nation, and the world is given in each complete issue. Each week the departments of Farm and Farmers, Woman’s Kingdom, Great Agricultural South, Farm ers’ Union, Rural Free Delivery, Poultry and others of wide interest, edited by experts, appeal directly to those addressed. The Weekly Constitution contains all these special features and the difference between it and The Tri-Weekly is that the one is issued once a week (on Monday only) and the other three times a week—Monday, Wednesday and Friday. If you want the Constitution alone, without any clubbing offers, you can get the Tri-Weekly Constitution at $1 per year, or The Weekly at 50c per year, by addressing The Constitution, Atlanta, Ga. One sample copy sent free on request, giving with it six of your neighbors. THE CONSTITUTION IS THE PAPER FOR RURAL FREE DELIVERY ROUTES A club of 40 or 50 or more will keep an R. F. D. route above the minimum average required for daily mail service. It is the great news purveyor of the whole Southland, as good in the gulf states as on the Atlantic seaboard. Clubbed with The Atlanta Constitution, we have the superb FREE OFFERS showri from which you may make your choice of one: (1) 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. It 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 pretty and becoming and up to date, so that the ladies may feel well-dressed and in the style who follow them. But you get more than mere fashions. There are stories, poems, storyettes, 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. J OUR GREAT PROPOSITION Remember, our paper one year, and THE TRI-WES2KLY CONSTITUTION, Mon day, Wednesday and Friday, three tunes a week, for one year, and your selection of one from the three alternate free offers, all for $1.75; or the whole combination (except that The Weekly Constitution is substituted for the Tri-Weekly) for only... $1.40 Send at once.
