Edgtfield Adve tisor. Oldest Paper in South Carolina. EOGEFiELD, S. C. Next June we all may Iocs ior the ffcalmy days of January. - Possibly the? pet in the cat show ?would enjoy more keenly life in the alley. Some people can find a typograph ical error who never find an idea of their own. We have yet to discover an egg that has been improved by the cold stor age treatment. "Gaseous imbecility" has taken its ?place in the hall of fami beside "In mocuous desuetude." Higher education, too, has its dan gers. An Illinois girl started for col lege, but got married on the way. , Chicago is to have grand opera In {English neit season. If Chief Stew ard bas his way it will dso have it in ?clothing. In the Boston high schools 3,000 (girls ara taking the commercial ?course. The boys will have to go west ?or 6( ;th. A Denver surgeon wa3 stricken with -appendicitis while operating on a pa tient for that disease. Maybe it is ?catching, after all. That Jersey architect who failed to provide a stairway for a new school house must have realized that this is the age of aviation. Three and a half lillions was the value of the foreign trade of the United States last year. Pretty big ?country this, isn't it? Russia affords a big market for J^nerican typewriters. To judge from tho cartoons we see, Russia is not a "big market for American safety razors. There is a powerful movement lo favor of grand opera In English, dc ?pite the fact that soch productions tend to discourage thc elegant art of conversation. / ------ A Boston spinster wants a five-dol lar tax on bachelors. Eut surely she would not have any man value her so cheaply that he would marry her to save a paltry five. Harvard astronomers have discov ered a new star, but as said star is not one of the football variety, the discovery is not making much of a idt with the students.

Europe has now definitely decided that Tolstoi was insane. This may ? Toe true, but it seems as though a lit tle more of that sort of insanity wouldn't hurt Europe any. If the fashion of wearing tight trousers and padless coats comes into general use we know a great many supposedly brawny men who will dwindle woefully in appearance. Many 'readers of newspapers have wondered at the meaning of those oft repeated words found at the end of mysterious disappearance stories: "Detectives have been assigned to the case." At any rate the Chicago woman who said she rode all night on street cars to cure a headache has invented a good excuse for persons who are prone to stay out until the wee sma' j hours. A New York woman says she lost ter respect for her husband when she caught him with five aces in his hand. She is perfectly right. A man who allows himself to be caught that way deserves no respect. If that Buffalo man who would not ? give up a counterfeit bill to an agent ?T the government were to get the fail penalty of $100 and a year's im prisonment he might think he had committed rome reo! crime. We have it from a German eco nomist that American women will soon be forced to labor on farms like men.

A florist i New Jersey tums his hennery into a summer garden with all sorts of flowers and is getting eggs of delicate flavor and various tints, violet, rese and carnation flavors treing in the lead. A hen garden of this kind might be a handsome and ir*aful addition to a combination club house for the Ananias members and Ute nature fakers. A federnl judge tells us that hens .are not birds. Too true! Various hens we have tried to eat bore a close resemblance to fossils of the stone age. A Chicago youth who admits that he >1? "tall, chesty, very handsome and smntrimonlally Inclined." advertises 'that he is open to wed any pretty young blonde who Is wealthy, can cook, play the plano and is willing to stay home nights and behave herself. .And then they tell us that the women of tcday are without opportunities.

Governor Blease Would "Chop Off Their Political Heads." Columbia,-A letter sent out to the various clerks of court indicates that Governor Blease will refuse to ap prove a recommendation for the appointment of any negro as notary public. Following the action of the governor in revoking all former com missions this letter comes as no sur prise as it was known that he wished to change the old form of appoint ments. An effort was made at the last ses sion of the genera laBsembly to limit the terms of office of notaries pubilc as is done in a number of states, but this did not receive the favorable consideration. Governor Blease, in his letter, re quests the clerks of court, according to the letter received by J. F. Walker, clerk of the Richland court, to refer to him the application made, to any negro for appointment to this office and further states: "If any of them happen to slip through I will chop off their political heads. So far none have been issued for office and no negro will he commissioned." The law requires that notaries pub lic file their names wita the clerk of court "VETO BY HiS SIDE." Governor Blease Makes it Known That Power Will be Used. Columbia,-Governor Blease had many things to say concerning his veto of the appropriation measure in 25 counts. He said that he intended next year to veto the items for the state colleges if they were as large as this year and that he would have vetoed the items for the running of the schools this year if he had put the members of the general assembly on notice. He said that if he bad vetoed the items that it would have meant the discon tinuance of the schools for 12 months and that would not. have been fair. "But," he continued, "I hereby put them on notice that if the items for the expenses of the state schools arc as high next year as they were this year that I will use my veto power." He thinks that the state institutions are receiving tco much money. Governor Blease will abolish the of fice of state geologist. He thinks the office a needless one. He said that when the term of office of Earle Sloan expired that he would refuse to make an. appointment to fill the vacancy. This wotKl' abolish the office. . He condemned the factory inspec tion law as being needless and gave a final verbal decree that the in spectors; must go. Governor Blease said that?he had lef it generally be known that he would veto Important items in the appropriation bill and that the charge that he had not gnade it known in a way and that me'mbers of the house and senate who left the city thinking that the measure was safe was un true. Opposed to Commission Government. Columbia.-"I am opposed to the commission form of government in toto." With this statement Governor Blease vetoed the two measures pro viding for a vote on the commission form of government and sent the hopes of the citizens o' Charleston and Spartanburg glimmering so far as the new form of government in the two cities are concerned. Columbia.-It is not so much the general taxes that burden the people as the many special levies that have been laid and the bonding of tho small communities. This year in the general assembly probably seventy five acts were passed giving to town ships and villages the right to bond themselves. This is well and good for the cause of education and im provements, but the people feel the burden and yet lay this on the other taxes. Laborsrs Went on Strike. Charleston.-Several hundred ne gro laborers went on a strike ' at the several of the phosphate works in the suburbs. The negroes wanted an increase from $1.50 to $2.10, which was refused and then the negroes quit work. Some of them paraded around with red banners, instigating other negroes to stop work, and sev eral arrests followed. The negroes have been making these demands generally every year and the ^orks have been allowing them increases. No Increase will be given, Test Farm at Timmonsville. Wasfiington.-A government ex perimental farm will be established at Timmonsville, Florence county, and work will begin at once. Such, at least, is tho word sent by the bu reau of plant industry of the depart ment of agriculture to Representative Ellerbe and Representative Lever, members of the house committee on agriculture, both of whopi have been active in their efforts to bring about the establishment of this farm. The farra to be established is to be used in experiments. Eleven Yearn to Make up Her Mind. Spartanburg.-On account of in juries received eleven years ago, suit haB been filed in Anderson county by Festus Burnett and his wife, Joannah Burnett, against the Pejzer Manu facturing company. Damages in the sum of $50,000 are asked. It is set forth in the complaint that while Mrs. Burnett was employed in the mill of the defendant company, she was injured and this heoessltated the amputation of her hand. Since the accident she has married. It i3 not known why the delay.

Appealing to thc police to find her husband, who went to work and had not returned home at eight o'clock, but requesting that the officers nei lin r arrest nor "talk cross" to him, a 'oman left a note in the hands of Patrolman Hickerson at Sixth and Ed mond streets containing information concerning thc missing husband. Tho note in addition to giving a de scription of the missing man read that the wife "was worried nearly sick because it was the first time that he had done this." '.I don't want you to arrest him," continued the note. "Tell the police to picas* net talk cross to him."-St. Joccph Gazette.

A Frequent Speaker. A member from a northern constit uency, who was one day reproached by a disappointed supporter for never evening h's mouth in the house, repu diated the accusation with indignation. Not a /iay passed, he declared, but that he caid coimnhing: and it was reported in the papers, too.

Fer years I had. been troubled with dizziness, spots before' my eyes and pain ia my heart, to which was added, two years later, a chronic sour stomach. "The baby was born 7 months ago, ?nd almost from the beginning, it, too, suffered from sour stomach. She was taking it from mc! ? "In my distress I consulted a friend of more experience and she told mc to - quit, coffee, that coffee did not make good milk. I hr.vc since ascer tained that it really dries up the milk. "So. I quit coffee and tried tea and at last cocoa. But they did not agree with me. Then I turned to Postum with the happiest results. It proved to be the very thing I needed. It not only agreed perfectly with baby and myself, but It increased the flow of my milk. "My husband then quit coffee and used Postum and quickly got well of the dyspepsia with which he had been troubled. I no longer suffer irom the dizziness, blind spells, pain in my heart or sour stomach. "Now we all drink Postum from my husband to my seven months' old baby. Tt has proved to be the best hot drink we have ever used. Wc wou'd not give up Postum for the best coffee we ever drank." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
