THE FREE SCHOOL BILL,

On the second page OF the JOUR
NAL will be found In full the Act
passed by the Georgia Legislature
to create a system of public schools
tor Marietta. In accordance with
this act the city council of Marietta
has ordered an election to be held
on Friday, March 9th. This bill
makes the schools free, with the
exception of a small martriculation
fee. Fol small towns this inciden-
tai fee is charged. The public
schools are so run and regulated, in
Cedartown and, if we mistake not.
also the one in Newman. 1t has
been found to work well. Some NAV
object to this, out on reading the
bill you will observe, that where the
parents or guardians are not able to
pay this incidental fee, 1t invests
said Board of Commissioners with
the ''poaOer and it shall be their duty
to remit the payment of said inciden-
tai fees" to those not able to pay.
This virtually makes it free to the
poorer class Of people and helps
those most needing help. This will
put in operation a free school sys-
tenn, which may be tie beginning to
make it free altogether in a few
years. 1t will certainly be a
step in the right direction
Great reforms are not accomplished
in d day or year. 1t takes Zine.
Let, therefore, every one make up
his mind to throw no obstruction in
the way of the consummation OF this
desirable system OF schools, but all
go to the polls and vote for it's adop-
ton on March 9th.

DO YOU so ACT /?

Human nature is strange bundle
OF inconsistencies. We may write
and do thousand good things, and
their excellence will not be mention
ed but in a moment of thoughtless-
ness make one mistake or say one
indiscreet word calculated to wound
feelings, and you are condemned
Your many acts of kindness and
merit are overlooked and your one
fault is remembered and made to
outweigh everything else. The
pure girl may commit one false step
and she is made an outcast for life.
Society will accept no atonement no
matter how sincerely made, and the
horizon of her life's happiness is
black with clouds. How little
charity is exercised IN helpful words
and encouraging smiles, MANS
inhumanity to mar makes countless
millions mourn"

A SMILE.

The world is suffering for smiling
faces. The ago is too intense in the
business direction, too fippant in its
political tendency, too heartless in
its literature. The world needs
more smiles and fewer frowns, more
sunshine and less lightning. It costs
nothing to allow a smile to play
restfully upon the features when
trading or voting, when talking or
reading. 1t pays infinitely more
than it costs in friendship,in finance
individual growth. We can win
more people by smile than we can
brighten by frcwn, juet as the sun
shine grows more trees than the
lightning skaters.
A smile is the cheapest and most
effective way to sooth sorrowing
hearts; to quell rebellious pupils or
chlldren; TO tame angry employees !;
to heal political antagonists, or re-
restore calm to a disturbed church.
a smile is like a diamond: it
multiplies the love, it transmits a
hundred fold and intensifes ISIS bril-
liancies. 1t is nothing against the
sunshine OF smile that there may
be roguish ones, and We must not
mistake grain of weakness for the
smile of strength. A true manly
or womanly smile is as choice as a
day in JuAe, and has the effect up
on the best germs Of our nature
that the Jnne day has upon ma
ture DER which it broods with such
tender, afectionate grace.-Ex.

HEDGING.

James G. Blaine has inaugurated
free trade with Brazil, under the
name Of reciprocity" Similar
treaties are to be made with South
American countries. In view of
the fact that the Republican Con-
gress has passed M,Kinley's high
tariff bill, it looks little strange, if
not inconsistent, t. establish reci-
procity of commercial traffic be-
tween the United States and Brazil.
If it is good for Brazil why isn't it
good for Europeon nations? The
truth is the Republican party is try
ing to hedge" They bit off more
than they can very we'll masticate
in the Mckinley bill, and they are
now iaaugurating free trade under
the disguise Of reciprocity

THE OLD HOMESTEAD.

Many of those who once crossed
its threshold so eagerly, have gone.
The playground of the little girls is
gone. The sweet twilight ola sum-
mer's eve as it fingered on a beau
tiful landscape of hill and dale, and
river and city, is gone. Slight
threads of gray are springled amid
the once black locks of youth and
beauty,a and the loving heart reaches
out into the past and gropes for
scenes that will never come again.
Gone is the singing of the birds and
the gay laughter of childhood. The
tondly cherished dreams of a hallow-
ed old age has disappeared in the
midst of morning; but the roar OF
city is still the same, Only louder
the tread of. the feet is still the
same, only more Of them and still
heavier. And SO the old things OF
the past give way to the new, and
the scenes of a busy busy life, 'like
specters grim and tall,' walks
through the corridors of memory and
startle us with the onward flight Of
time.

NOT A PATH OF REACE.

Young man, don't be a politician
or a statesman.
There is no money in the business
In the first place, and while there
is much in the way of fame and no
toriety, there is no peace IN life and
no dignity in death.
The ordinary avocations of life
afford the surest paths to peace,
happiness and prosperity, and the
young man who can make up his
mind to travelin them, will, in his
old age, approve the resolve of his
youth.
The life Of the politician is one Of
great tcnsion-far greater than flesh
and blood can stand. The vital or.
gans weaken under stress of excite>
ment and anxiety, and death follows
before it should occur in the natural
course of events. Give professional
politics the go-by, and make name
and fortune in some other line

HOW TO LIVE CHEAPLY.

One Of the subjects talked and
written about a great deal at the
present time is how to live cheaply.
Prices of all the great staples OF life
are high. Fashions are exacting.
Wants multiply while resources di-
miLish. How to make ends meet is
the problem which presses on hum
dreds of people. II it what is done
to keep up appearances that destroys
the equilibrium between income and
expense and makes life a drudgery
and vexation.
How to live cheaply IS question
easy enough to answer if any one
will be content with cheap living.
Substitute comfort for show. Put
convenience in the place OF fashion.
Study simplicity. Refuse to be be-
guiled into style of living above
what is required by your position in
society and is justified by your re-
sources. Set fashion of simplicity,
neatness, prudence and inexpensive
ness which others will be glad to
follow and thank you for introduce
Ing. Teach yourself to do without
thousand pretty and snowy things
which wealthy people purchase, and
pride Yourself on being just as hap
Ply without them as your rich neigh
bors are with them. Put so much
dignity, sincerity, kindness and
love into your simple and inexpen-
sive home that its members will
never miss the costly fripperies and
snowy adornments, and be happier
in the cozy and comfortable apart
ments than most Of their wealthy
neighbors are in their sumptuous
and splendid establishments.
1t does not follow that in order
to live cheaply one must live mean
ly. The best comforts of life are
not costly. Taste, refinement, good
cheer and wit are not expensive.
There is no trouble about young
people marrying with no outfit but
health and love and an honest pur.
pose, provided they will practice
thrift and prudence, to which thou
sands owe success, and make their
thought and love supply what they
lack in the means of display. Those
who begin life at the top of the lad
der generally tumble off,while those
who commence at the foot acquire
steadiness, courage, and strength OF
arm and will as they rise.-Old
Homestead.
