I i\ I \ Should South Carolina Pension the Soldiers She Sent Out J In 1861-5? f It is not the wish of South Carolina J to be indifferent to high purpose or \ plain duty. The men she put on the \ { battle field during the Civil war were ^! the equals in valor and fortitude to J any that saw the smoke or heard the i sound of battle. There was we know, g prior to 1876, a lack of appreciation g| of their services by those who were in charge of the affairs of the State from the close of^the war till 1876; but from , thence-forward there is no reason, as I see it, why they should not have been remembered. The money that has been, and is j being set aside for the maimed and S indigent, is not in any proper sense a S premium, but a charity fund. There ; is in its distribution nothing that speaks of services rendered, but all is centered on present conditions. In j " many cases the present condition is $ due to lack of business tact and push, | as the indulgence of wasteful habits, j Those who by diligence, persistent j toil and habits of economy have acJ quired a specified amount of property j are not eligible to a share of this fund. 3 Such an arrangement as this is un9 worthy the history of South Carolina. 9 It seems more like putting a penalty on the men who have succeeded in business and a premium on those who ?, have not. Twenty-five years more and the rear guard of the Confederate ^ soldierswill have passed, or nearly so. ^ If the Legislature of South Carolina f is unwilling any longer to recognize V any other claim to her. appropriation ^ than that of maimed and indigent, f then call in the pension board and ^ change the name of the appropriation. W This, while it is not the proper thing to do, would be a less wrong than is ^ now being done. The right thing to ^ do is to put every old soldier, or his J widow, on-the pension roll.

A Story Kipling Forgot to Put In His Jungle Book. The tigur is a tretcherus beest. It beelongs to the cat fammily, but it ain't the kind of cat; that walks the fense nites yellin Maria. My Unkel Dick knows a rime about a yung lady of Nigur who went out to ride.on a tigur, an when tha came bak the lady wuz ridiu inside the tigur, an thare wuz a smile on his face. Uukel Dick sez thare are tigurs in Nigur, so I gess the story must be troo. A tigur skin makes a fine rug, but When its on a tigur its a different proppysition. My Unkel Dick sez you never kno wether you are huntin the tigur or the tigur is huntin you. This makes it eggsitin to say the leest. Stripes are considered in good taste in the jungel, an tigurs alhvays ware them. Wun time a leppard sez to a tigur, "Wy don't you ware spots?" An the tigur answered, "Coz it wood brake my hart to be taken for a leppard." , Then tha fited somethin awful, an the tigur eated the leppard awl up. An pretty sune he felt mitey sick an called in old Doctur Munkey an Doctur Munkey lookt at his tung an felt his paw an sed, "Yoor comin down with spotted fever." My unkel sez thats a story Rudyard Kipling fprgot to put in his jungle book.?Cleveland Plain Dealer. An Even Match.

When they were safely married he cleared his throat and announced to his bride that he had a confession to make. "It's about the wedding present I have for you," he said. "I thought? that is, I?well, I calculated it would be a nice surprise. I have four children at home waiting to call you mother." Mrs. Tracy nodded her head approvingly. " 'Twill be more companionable for the little Joneses!" she said. "The Joneses!" gasped Danny. "And who are they?" "There's six of them, Danny, dear," said his new wife. "They're my wedding present to you."?Youth's Companion. Unprecedented. m "Nothing like that ever happened to ine before!

Sam; a negro servant of a Harrisburg family, is very ambitious to appear well informed on all subjects. His master had installed electric lights throughout the house and was explaining the workings of the fluid to Sam as follows: "You see. the whole thing comes from the dynamo and goes into the wires and then into the lights. Now do you understand?" "Yes, sah," said Sam.
