The Proper Public Sentiment
Our people munt realize that
whil* it is their duly to pay faxes
for the protection of life aud prop
erty, it is their still higher duty [?
pav taxes f<>r the education ol' theil
children. They must believe thal
it is tho inalienable right Oae every
child to demand and to receive tin
benefits of an elementary cd nea
tion at least, and that the moa!
profitable investment of the bod)
politic, measured iu dollars ft nd
cents, is the tax fund invested ii
the brains and capabilities of chil?
dren. They must feel deeply thai
conception of truth and recogni?
tion of duty are not alone essential
but that works must justify theil
faith, taxes must be levied and col
Jected, and wise, intelligent super
Vision of the public agencies of cd
ncation must be maintained.?Jobi
H. Small.
A Business Opening
The publishers of ''Success," th*
great home magazine of America
published in New York, write iii
that they desire to secure a looa
representative in this county to re:
ceive and solicit subscriptions. Tin
compensation given by '"Success"
is said to be the largest ottered b\
any first-class periodical, and if mn
of our readers are desirous of un?
dertaking work of this character
we suggest that they conimnnicatt
at once witit The Success Company
Washington Square, New York.
The Scholarship Bureau of Tin
Success Company will also gladlv
explain a plan by which boys am
girls can secure an ed neath.n, Tht

A Scientific Discoyery
Kodol does for the stomach tba
which it is unable to do for itself
even when but slightly disordered
or over-loaded. Kodol supplies Mn
natural juices of digestion anJ doe
the work of the stomach, relaxing
the nervous tension, while the in
flamed muscles of that organ ari
allowed to rest and heal. K?do

the stomach and digestive organ
to transform all food into rich, rc.

All the BfMMrtj r>t the com mon
wealth is pledged for the edncatioi
of all its youth up to such a poin
as will save them from poverty him

and civic duties, To rob the chil?
dren of today, or those of the fu?

of which the state can be guilty.?

, Jack and His Bean Stalk, or the
Decrease of illiteracy in the
South.
If Jack climbs his bean stalk at
the rate of a mile a day and the
hean ktalk grows at* the rate of a
mile and a quarter a day, when will
Jack reach the top of In's bean
stalk? Plainly, only after he has
begun to climb faster than, the
bean stalk grow*.
If iu thirty years the number of
illiterate while voters in a state has
increased 21,303. at the same rate
when will there cease to be illiterate
{white voters in that stale? Plainly,
only when?they are disfranchised.
But when will there cease to be
native white males of yoting age
who can not read and write? Cer?
tainly, not until belier Behool* arc
provided and lazy and indifferent
parents are required to send their
children to them.
It is probably not generalh
known that in every Southern state
then] has been in the last thirty
! years an increase in tba number of
white males twenty years o'.d and
over who can neither read nor
write. Yet it is true; and it is
furthermore true that in no state
South of Ihe Ohio and the Poto?
mac has there been a decrease in
the number of illiterates of this
class in any decade since 1870. On
the contrary, there has been an in?
crease in illiterates of this class in
every state in each of these three
decades.
lu 1000 there were in Virginia
8,847 more illiterate native white
men twentv-one years old and over
than ill 1870; in West Virginia 11,
H51 more; in North Carolina 21,308
more; in South Carolina b\37o
more; in Georgia 10,550 more; in
Florida 2.082 more; iii Kentucky
i 21.001 more; iu Tennessee 14,705
more; in Alabama 14,185 more; in
1 Mississippi 2,903 more; in Louis?
iana 10,001 more; in Texas 34,285
I more; Arkan as 9,013 more. In
1S00 there wee in al these states
175.883 more illiterate native white
men than in 1870. At this rate,
when will lhere cease to be a large
number of illiterate native white
voters in tbes > good states? This i>
a matter for the earnest eonsidera
of every legislator and every good
citizen in all of these states, and
I the problem of Jack and his bean

the excessivo use of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don't over?
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need a good digestant like
Kodol, which digests your food with*

soon restore health. Dieting un neces?

and valuable articles in the hundreds of excellent
