Dreaming and Doing. 1 ?Those -who dream do not do. Those -wno do have no time to dream." These epigrams from a recent ar ticle hy Sarah Bernhardt apply not only to the art students, for whom < she wrote it, hat with equal aptness to the woman ordering a home or the business girl earning her livelihood out of the home. "if?eems to me," she continues, '.Matthe successful ones are those Triio never think at all about success, hut simply work. They love art, and they toil. They make no speeches, never seek to impress others with the certainty of their own success; never, in fact bother their heads, about oth ers or'the opinion of others at any time. They work patiently, they work year after year; their work improves little by little, and they wake some day surprised to find themselves suc cessful."

The Ught that tips yon mountain's crest .Portends the age of darkness past: " That gloomy night shall lose its sway; The world of toil shair have its day. The clouds that clothe the mountain's side Begin to fall apart, divide; The day shall follow break of dawn And labor come unto its own.

On motion of Mr. Whaley, chair man of the judiciary committee, the house sent its greetings to the, gover nor and a committee of three was ap pointed to convey to his excellency the information that the house was ready for the transaction of business and was awaiting his pleasure. The com mittee, consisting of Messrs. Whaley. Doar and D. 0. Herbert, returned announcing that the governor thro' Iiis private secretary, Mr. J. E.

At the conclusion of these for malities the message was read and then the business grind of the session ivas started.

Half an lour after Lieut. Gov. John T.

To uake thc illusion more complete, s?v irai politicians were holding an ear to. Douth covcrsation in thc lobby. President Sloan Speaks. President Sloan made a short but mpressive speech of welcome.

In this document it is set forth that the constitutional exactions and requirements were not observed in the enaction and this joint committee re commends that the whole transaction be started over anew and that the matter be again submitted to the peo ple for ratification. The house gave second reading to eight bills; rejecting one on the un favorable report of a committee; per mitted fourteen to be laid on the table and withdrawn from the calen dar and killing five by indefinitely postponing them. This is a good re cord for the third day of the session. Among the bills tabled and with drawn by the authors were the follow wing: By Mr. Riley-To make operation of bucket shops a misdemeanor.

The speaker announced that he had relieved Mr. Richards from service on the -committee on public schools as Mr. Richards is the new chairman of , the ways and means committee. . Twenty-four new bills were intro duced, none of which however were of g?n?ral public int?rest. In The Senate. While the senate is now steadily at business, nothing of a sensational or extrordinarily interesting nature has developed. Thursday the calander was read as usual and a number of bille were in troduced. The biennial sessions com mittee made its report. A bill to give the railroad commis sioners more power over depots was given a third reading, and a bill to ex tend protection over quail and par tridges until 1910 received second reading. Several bills were recom mitted, among them one regarding railroad rates and two relating to the kinship of supreme court justices and circuit court judges with reference to their sitting in cases. The House.. The house of representatives has at last got started on its way to the bill to grant additional powers to the dis pensary investigation committee. On account of numerous unforseen cir cumstances it appeared that thc bill might be delayed until the latter part of next week, but Mr. Nash saved it. A session ivas held at night especially for the purpose of letting the dispen sary committee of the house report the" bill. Among the . new bills introduced were thc following: By Mr. Haskill-To provide for the study of forestry by experiment sta tion at Clemson in connection with the United States department of agri culture. * By Mr. Otts-To authorize election in counties or townships on perma nent road improvements. Mr. Otts-To require certain medi cines to he plainly marked. Mr. Cothran-To [iermi 1 clerks of court to grant writs ol' herbus corpus and admit to hail in certain cases. In the Seneta. The senate worked for about an hour Friday and adjourned to meet on Monday. The ealaander was read through and a number of bills intro duced. When the dispensary investigating committee's bill to give the committee further power came up, asked that it go to third reading. This was oppos ed by Senator Blease of Newberry, who said that he had asked for a fin ancial statement from the committee and as it had not been presented he wanted the bill passed over. This was done. . Saturday in The House. The Senate was not in session Sat urday, having adjourned over from Friday to Monday. The House how ever, did a good "days work. The dis pensary investigation bill was advanc ed one day oivthe calendar, and quite an amount of routine business was transacted. A number of bills were ,read a second time, a few passed fi nal reading and several new bills were introduced. THE SENATOR'S ACUMEN.

In these days, when economy of time and space are of the highest im portance, it seems to me that some of the conventionalities of correspond ence might well be abolished. Why should we write "Dear sir," and then make a pause and begin a fresh line? Why could not all we have to say flow straight on in the same line from "Dear sir?" Again, why shock! we take three lines-and this, - perhaps, is more im - portant-over the conclusion of our letters? It strikes me that it would be infinitely simpler and more con venient if you concluded a letter thus: "I am, dear sir, your obedient serv ant, Ed'ard Cuttle," all ia one line.
