These poor people, of sexes, are unable to read rte, and this, the twentieth ryof the Christian era, toumn. th~e "Athens of Which? One of the saddest thinos I have read in a long time was a beautiful eulczy about a very rich man. It mentioned the fact of his wealth and his high standing in society. etc., but not a word was said about his religious life. I thought of the text: "What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul, or what shall a man give in exchatnge for his soul?" I read again about the funeral of an old negro, who was a slave before the war. His white friends carried him to his grave and pronounced eulogies upon his life. He left no property, but he was rich in grace. Which was the wiser, the edu cated man, who devoted his life to graining property and fame or the ignorant negro.who sought riches beyond the grave? D. W. H. The Old Fellows Are Learning A go-A friend said the other day: 'There's no use worrying over ,s old fellows. We are set in jur ways. Spend vour time ca the young folks and try to get them interested in better ways of farming and living." Nevertheless, d e s p i t e o u r friend's pessini-m, we find evi dence almost every day that the elder men on our Southern farms are giving the young fellows a pretty good chase in the race of progress. Many of them have something of the spirit of Thos. A. Edison,now 67 years old,who said the other day: ''I expect to do my greatest work in years to come. I am just in the state of learning and my accomplish ments will come later." Thousands of farmers whose school advantages were poor have educated themselves by reading good papers. Even the old men who haven't been able to read and write are learning in many cases. Thousands of them have learned in the moonlight schools in Kentucky and we hope this movement is going to sweep over the South. We saw an old lady recently who learned to write after she had eleven chil dren. Only today we heard of a man .who educated himself bv studying along with his growing children. The old fellows are coming on all right, and some of the young ones will have to hustle to get out of their w a y yet!-Progres sive Farmer. Marion Fisk, Cartoonist-Lecturer Ewing Herbert, editor of Her! bert's Magazine, says. "The many who heard Mrs. Fisk talk, and s tw her make good pictures as she talked, de cided that she was witty in speech and most artistic with chalk. Nothing on the Hia watha Chautauqua program pleased better than heroffering." Mrs. Fisk will give Pickens an exhibition of her talent as a lec turer and her skill as an artist at the school auditorium Wed nesday. May 6, and no doubt the house will be well filled. We do not believe that story about an Arkansas man paying $2,500 for a dog. In the first place, no dog is worth $2,500. And in the second place, no Al kansas man ever had that miA money.-Anderson Mail. ' The latest fashion for- foot gear for the ladies has iust broke out in Paris, France. It's san dals this time and the .iewelers there have already begun to have toe rings made for the dear ones to wear on their san daled tootsies!

When the donkey saw the zebra. He began to swvitch his tail; "Well, I never." was his comment. " There's a mule that's been in jail." - Exchange. On Second Thought We had a suffrage mneetin' down to Pohick on the Crick. The v-oters an' the votresses came re solved to kick. At the sound of "Votes for women: all the menfolk said "Hurrah!" But a number of the women simply smiled an' said "Oh. pshaw!" We talked the matter over. The edec. tions of the past Hlad often- failed, all owin' to the way the votes were cast. We declared that if they wished it. we'd stay home an' mend the socks n' let our wives show how to run that pesky ballot box.

"That's jes'I the way them men will shirk! hey want to stand around an' let us women do the work!" he roused such indignation that the case was settled quick; he men will keep on votin' down to Pohick on the Crick. -Washington Star.
