For the Disp,ich.l
aSfa EAf

As the hsppiest time OF all the year
draws near, we truly wish peace and gen.
tleness to reign, not drinking. strife. and
clamoring, for those who have contentious,
and wounds lcithOW cause, are "they that
tarry long at the .wine.' Then let us try
to keep the day decently, orderly. nor
touch the foamng cup, whose joys are as
evanescent as lis froth, remembering that
"if by our deeds we become saints, it is
true that by our deeds also shall we be con-
demned." Il. J. ANDERSON.

Tribune and Sun,

OF the ten millions of voters of
the United States one in five cannot
write his name.
OF the eighteen millions of chill
dren and youth, the average atten-
dance at school is only six millions,
and five tenths OF the whole are
growing up in absolute ignorance of
the English alphabet.
Thirty-tWO and three-tenths per
cent. of the voters of the South are
illiterate. OF these G9.7 are colored
80 3 are white. The increase of H.
literate voters in the South from
1870 to 1880 was 1877 ,66I.
Tennessee has 544, S62 school pop
ulation, while the average atten-
dance is only 1911 ,46I. The average
days of school annually are 69 and
average salary of teachers $20.66.
We only pay 46 cents upon the
average for the education of our
children. These figures are appalI-
ing, and should stimulate to greater
interest in education. Can child
be educated on 46 cents per year.
Let more school houses be built,
more and better teachers employed
at better salaries. This is the only
way To remove illiteracy and secure
an intelligent class of voters.

ance; establish and improve the

pie. Thomas Jefferson.

w Oman-HOpe for Suffering WON
nR! Something new Under
the Sum!

By reason of her peculiar relations
and her peculiar ailments, woman has
been compelled to suffer, not only her
own ills, but those arising from the
want of knowledge, or of consideration
on the part of those with whom she
stands connected in the social Organi-
zation. The frequent and distressing
Irregularities peculiar to her sex have
thus been aggravated to degree
which no language can express. In
the mansions of the rich and the hovel
of the poor alike, women has been the
patient victim of ills unknown to man
and which none but she could endure
and without a remedy. But now
the hour of her redemption has come.
She need not suffer longer, when she
can find relief in DIR. J. Bradfield's
Female Regulator, "Woman's Best
Friend" Prepared, by DIR. J. Brad
field, Atlanta, Ga Price: trial size,
