FOOLED THE COLONEL.
The Way Paddy Bra-nigan Outma-
neuvered His Superior.

The colonel, or "Old Daddy" as he
was usually called, had habit Of
strolling round the camps at most un-
seasonable hours. Sentries had to be
continually on the alert, tor nothing
would have given "Old Daddy" great
er satisfaction than TO have bounced
on some luckless one who might think
the midnight hours suitable for quiet
snooze.
Paddy Brannigan made that mistake
once. There in the quiet moonlight
he sat, all unconscious Of the colonePs
presence, his rife laid against the tent,
himself buried in slumber. Gently the
rife was lifted from it's place. But
some good angel awoke Paddy in time
the guard tent. Paddy missed his rifle
at once and followed the colonel with
the caution Of a prairie cat.
Outside the guard tent stood the
wooden rack which held the rifles of
the guard, and into it "Old Daddy" plac-
ed Paddy's rifle, himself entering the
tent to call the sergeant in charge.
This was Paddy's opportunity. He
grabbed his rifle and was back at his
post in an instant The colonel brought
the sergeant outside and ordered him
to count the rifles.
Cali correct, sir" said the sergeant.
Nothing Of the sort. There Is an ex-
ira rifle there. That l am certain of.
for put it there myself"
II beg your pardon, sir, but the num-
Der is quite correct" again replied the
somewhat amazed sergeant.
"Come with income with me this
instant, and I'll sooD let you see what
I mean"
The sergeant followed his chief, won
dering what was going to happen
Halt! Who goes there?" rang out
clear and sharp in the night air from
the now wideawake Paddy.
This was more than sold Daddy"
had ever dreamed Of For moment he
was paralyzed. Then he marched
straight up to Paddy. gazed into his
sweetly innocent face and, with
well. I'm blowed," turned on his heel

southern Educatlon Notes.

Southern EQucaIlOn NOleS.
OF the seven million children of school
age in the southern states more than six
million live in sparsely settled districts or
in towns of less than 1000 inhabitants.
Hence the rural schools are of first i'm
portance and should receive first consider
alton. We can never be an educated peo-
pie until we have good rural schools and
.he country children attend them.
At present the average length of the ar
nual term of these schools is something
less than one hundred days. The average
number of days of schooling for each child
Of school age is less than forty. The aver
ages for the entire country are fully fifty
per cent more than these, and for those
of the most favored sections more than
hundred per cent better. In one southern
state the average length of term of the
schools is less than seventy days; the av-
erage attendance of children of school
age is less than twenty-five days. Only
three hundred and fifty days of schooling
to prepare the children of people for life
and citizenship in a great democratic re-
public!
Comparatively few of these rural schools
have any libraries or any books except a
few text books used by the children Hav-

Little Helps About the Home.

There are few things about the house
more helpful to the housekeeper than
kerosene oil. IL she has learned to use it
for cleaning purposes. 1t is excellent for
washing windows or mirrors. Pour a little
in warm water and wash the glass with
out using soap. then rub dry with clean
cloth free from lint and polish with soft
tissue paper. A good polish for steel
knives Is made by moistening coal ashes
with kerosene. and the ivory handles may
be cleaned by rubbing with fine sandpa-
per and then polishing with finely powder
ed pumice stone. Then II is good for
cleaning the rubber rollers of the wringer
when they become discolored or covered
with lint. Dip a cloth in the oil and wipe
of the rubber, then rub with a dry cloth,
and they win be bright and clean. The
best way to prepare new iron kettle for
use is to I'LL IL with clean potato parings
and water; allow them to boil for an hour
then wash out with hot suds and rub with
lard. The potato parings are also good for
cleaning water bottles and similar objects.
Pour some vinegar over the pieces, put
the mixture in the bottle and shake we'll
then rinse IL out with clear water. Soda
is excellent for cleaning tinware. Apply
with a damp cloth and polish with a dry
one. Small holes in tinware may be mend
ed with putty. WORK it in smooth with a
knife and leave il to dry. Another good
cement for tinware and stone jars is made
by mixing together litharge and glycerine
TO the consistency Of thick cream. The
same mixture is good for mending lamp
tops and articles mace of iron. White lead
makes a good cement for china; that is,
the thick white paint as IL comes before
being thinned with oil and turpentine.
The glass and china dishes may be wash
ed so they will be shiningly clean in
strong suds of pearline and hot water,
but the suds should be thoroughly mixed
before the articles are put in, and they
should be rinsed quickly through clear
hot water. The only way to set an attrac-
tive table is to keep the dishes clean and
polished and a neat housekeeper can show
her taste and good management more in
the arrangement Of her table than in any
other part Of the household. for an at
tractive table set with polished dishes and
shining glass is a test of her superior
housekeeping. NJ H.

couraged to cultivate the habit Of reading
good books. But this cannot be done when
the children have no access to books eth
er at school or at home.
Some of these schools are taught by
most excellent teachers; but some of them
are taught by young men and women
whose, education was finished in the first
or second year of a country academy and
still more by teachers who have never
had any schooling except that furnished
at these same public schools. Most OF
these young men and women do not wish
to teach any longer than is necessary to
make enough money to enable them to get
a start in some other business. The aver
age school life of these teachers is not
more than three years of one hundred
days each.
Most of these schools are taught in
cheap, uncomfortable houses, with no ade-
quate equipment, and with little pretense
to beauty or sanitation. The south is no
longer poor as it was in the decades i'm
mediately succeeding the ravages of war.
Building material is abundant in every
state, and our men have strong arms to
fell trees, prepare lumber and make brick.
We should begin at once to build decent
and comfortable school houses in every
school district, and to equip them with
the needful furniture and apparatus.
These school houses are the homes of our
children all the days they attend school,

The official call for the Cane and Casa
va convention in Brunswick on April IL,
1872, is as follows:
The Sugarcane and Cassava convention
TO be held I'm Brunswick on the 18th day
of April 1902. should arouse the deepest
interest and command the most earnest
support OF the people of south Georgia.
The movement for the planting of wider
areas in sugarcane, the more intelligent
making and marketing of the syrup, the
Introduction of cassava as a food for
stock, and for starch manufacture, is in
tensely practical and disseminates infor-
nation which may be coined into dollars,
by every practical farmer in south Geor-
gia.
The movement was initiated by the
board Of trade of Brunswick at the in
stance of Colonel Wade, of the Southern
railway, who made an exhaustive inves-
tigation of cassava planting, production,
uses as food. and for fattening of stock
for manufacture into starch, in Florida,
where II is raised upon large scale, with
assured profit.
Colonel Wade has aroused interest
among cattle men of the northwest who
are making trial on lands purchased IN
this section.

occupy the same attitude towards the
candidates and questions at issue. that
the old woman did towards the liquor
fight in her town. She said, Now
they've got up a big issue and fuss
here over these saloons, but" she
said, I'm not going to take any sides
at all, I'm just going to be nuisance"
I think that's the attitude Of the daily
press here in Nashville towards the
issues involved in the campaign. The
papers hardly know which side will
win, and they rather be nuisance"
than to get on the side that didn't
win. They're on the fence, and an edt-
tor on the fence is worth just about
as much to the moral being of COM
munity, as a milk wagon delivering
watered milk all through the city.
AS for me. I have no respect for any
paper or man who does not takes sides
on any question that affects the home
and elevates society; in other words,
refusal to take a stand, is prima facie
evidence of cowardice or meanness. A
fellow is either afraid to take a stand
for fear he will lose money or friends.
or he is on the wrong side and hasn't
got the Gnanliness to maintain his
meanness.
If the average newspaper knew
which was going to be the winning
side, they would be on that side. no
matter what the issues involved, or
the moral sacrifices to be made.
