OUR FIRST FREE SCHOOL,.
Ii Was Established In Massachusetts
In the Year 1041.

In the Year 1041.
The first free school established IN
the United States was in the province
of Massachusetts Bay in the year 1911
by order of the general colonial court.
In 1Gi1 the same authority declared
that free schools should be established
within every town having fifty house
holders under penalty of a fine of Is.
This fine was doubled by a declaration
made In 1911 and again doubled in
1853. Connecticut established free
schools in 1914 and levied a tax for
their support. Maryland established
free schools in 1904 and levied a tax on
negroes. pelts. furs and beef and pork
for their support. Governor Berkeley
declared in 1919 the hope that freq
schools would never be established in
Virginia, but the towns of Charleston
n Elizabeth did establish them in
acres of land and eight cows, the in
crease from which was applied to sup
port the schools. -Four years later the
humble of cows had increased TO forty.
Pennsylvania was settled by Penn on
the Delaware river in 1851, and the
same year a free school. which is still
conducted under the auspices of the
Friends, or Quakers. was established
In Philadelphia. Among the declara-
lions of Penn in his frame of govern
ment" he asserted this immortal truth,
long since forgotten by the men who
have been responsible for the govern
ment of the commonwealth: ANY gov
eminent Is free to the people under 1t,
whatever be the frame, where the law
rules, and the people are a party to
those laws. More than this is tyranny,
Oligarchy and confusion" This sen.
tence Is inscribed in a bronze tablet i'm
placed in the walls of Independence
hall.

The Monument Was n MisGt.

A stately granite shaft had been
erected in the cemetery of a Massa-
chusetts town in memory of ii man
whose life had been anything but
praiseworthy. None the less the monu
ment was one of the sights to be shown
to a stranger. and one day Il former
resident of the town who had been
away for many years returned and was
taken to see the granite Obelisk. He
was no stranger to the faults and fail
ings Of the mar whom it eulogized
with its gilded inscription, and, after
silent contemplation of the shaft OH all
sides, he said, well. if it's for good
ness, it's too big, and if it's for badness
it's not big enough."-New Haven
Chronicle.

The Easy Pill.

DeWitt's Little Early Risers do not
grippe nor weaken the system. They
cure biliousness, jaundice, constipa-
ton and inactive livers, by arousing
the secretions, moving the bowels
gently, yet effectually, and giving sue
tone and strength to the glands OF the
stomach, liver and bowels that the
cause of the trouble is removed en-
tirely. These famous little pills exert
a decided tonic effect upon the organs
involved, and if their use is continued
for a few days there will be no return
of the trouble. T.. G.. Patterson & Co
