^tumorous JUpartmmt There's a Reason.?Young Adolph de Milyuns was out driving in his own car. He was a scorcher, and believed in going straight ahead. It was in the heart of Yorkshire, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch. ~ - ">-J ~1 1.1 no, unHsr suddenly a lerruieu uuviuu6 ?<?.? the wheels told him some accident had happened. He pulled up and glanced back. Two fowls lay dead in his track, while another two were fleeing back to home and safety. "That'll be 14 shillings, please," remarked a burly man in corduroys, who appeared on the scene promptly; "that's three-and-six apiece for the four." "Four!" gasped Adolphus. "But 1 only killed two." "That's right," agreed the fowl's owner, "but them other two will never lay a blessed egg after this." "I'm sorry," said the motorist, as he handed over the money. "Due to the fright, I suppose?" The countryman shook his head as he crammed the silver into his pocket. "Partly fright," he agreed slowly, "but mainly I reckon, because they ain't hens!" The Minister Made Her Blush.?In a town In the west there Is a church that has a bright young pastor, but the attendance is unfortunately small. Among the parishoners there is a beautiful young widow. One evening just as the little widow was about to leave the edifice, she was addressed by the deacon. "Good evening, sister!" he cordially remarked with the usual handshake. "How did you like the sermon this evening?" "I think it was Just too perfectly lovely for anything!" was the enthusiastic reply of the widow. "It was, indeed!" heartily returned the deacon. "I only wish that larger congregations would come to hear him." "So do I." declared the pretty little widow. "The congregation was so small tonight that every time the parson said 'dearly beloved,' I positively blushed." Most Obliging.?A street car was getting under way when two women, rushing from opposite sides of the street to greet each other, met right in the middle of the car track and in front of the car, says the Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph. There the two stopped and began to talk. The car stopped too, but the women did not appear to realize that it was there. Certain ot the passengers whose heads were immediately thrust out of the windows to ascertain what the trouble was, began to make sar astic remarks, but the two women heeded them not. Finally the motorman showed that he had a saving sense of humor. Leaning over the dashboard he inquired in the gentlest of tones: "Pardon me, ladies, but shall I get you a couple of chairs?" Depended On the Man.?He' was very fond of playing jokes on his wife, and this time he thought he had got tt winner. "My dear," he said, as they sat at supper, "Just heard such a sad story of a young girl today. They thought she was going blind, and so a surgeon operated oni her, and found?" "Yes?" gasped his wife breathlessly. "That she'd got a young man in her eye!" ended the husband, with a chuckle. For a moment there was silence. Then the lady remarked slowly: "Well, It would all depend on what sort of a man it was. Some of them she could have seen through easily enough!" Dubious.?An artist and his wife were entertaining some friends at tea in the studio. The host's picture, which had recently been "hung," was the topic of conversation. Said one lady: "Mr. Vandike, yours was the only picture I looked at in the exhibition." Vandike bowed and smiled delightedly. "Believe me. madam," he said, "I appreciate the honor." But she gave a little start of perplexity. "Honor?" she said. "The others, you know, were so surrounded by the crowd."?Tit-Bits. Just Like Him.?An elderly gentleman went into a photographic studio and asked to see the proofs of a picture recently taken of a young man whose name he gave. They were handed to him as a matter of course and he examined them carefully. He seemed pleased and finally said: "These are my son. This one is a remarkably good photo of him?it is very like him, indeed. Has he paid you for it yet?" "No, sir," said the photographer; "not yet." "Ah," said the elderly gentleman, "very much like him, indeed." Mother Could Help.?Claudie had disobeyed his parents, and his mother knew it. "I am afraid," she said, "that when I tell your father what you have been doing this afternoon he will punish you severely." "Have you got to tell him, mother?" asked the boy. "Yes," was the reply; "I shall tell him immediately after dinner." "Well, mother,'' said the boy, "give him a real good dinner, won't you? you might do as much as that for me." Knew His Townsmen.?A Glasgow hawker was touring the provinces, offering for sale his marvelous cureall mixture, and one day, when about .to uncork a bottle for his audience to sample, he found to his disgust that his corkscrew was missing. "Is there any gentleman in this crowd from Glassgow?" he asked, looking over his audience. "Yes; I am," came a reply, in an unmistakeably Glasgow accent. "Then lend me your corkscrew," was the quick rejoinder. Couldn't Take Picture-?"You must hrine- little Gertrude over and lot me take her picture some time." "You can't take her picture, papa Lewis."

There Is no one better qualified to write authoritatively upon this sub: ject than the Honorable John L. McLaurin, formerly U. S. senator from South Carolina. He is at present warehouse commissioner for South Carolina, in which capacity he has general charge of the warehouse system created by the state, of South r<omitnn under a law for the adoption of which Senator McLaurin is largely responsible. In answer to a letter requesting that he should prepare a special article upon this subject, he writes as follows: August 30, 1915. In response to your letter for an article on "Essentials of a Cotton Warehouse System," I think they may be summed up as follows: 1st. A dry house, and dry cotton to fill it. 2nd. Cheap storage, and low interest rates. 3rd. A negotiable receipt, giving the following guarantees: (a) The title of the cotton. (b) The delivery, on the presentation of the receipts, of the identical bales of cotton named therein. (c) The weights and grades, changes from ordinary climatic conditions excepted, guaranteed in favor of the lender of money or the purchaser of the cotton. I mention a dry house and dry cotton because this is the foundation of a proper warehouse system. Cotton is practically imperishable, except from damage from water, and under certain conditions it does not require much moisture to seriously damage a bale of cotton. Of course no competent warehouseman permits a leaky roof. The danger is not so much from this as from cotton being stored when it is wet. You can insure against loss by fire, but there is no insurance for damage from wet cotton, and any warehouse system not using every precaution against storing wet cotton is faulty. Cheap storage is a necessity to induce farmers to store cotton instead of rushing it on the market and breaking prices. It is sad but true that the lower the price goes, the greater the rush to sell, because of the fact that it takes more cotton to pay debts at six cents than at twelve cents, and the creditor is always more urgent in pressing his claims when cotton is low, because he fears a loss. It is not that we farmers did not understand, but that heretofore we have been powerless to prevent. To remedy this we must be able to borrow money on the warehouse receipts and pay our creditors. The inability to do this in the past accounts for the tremendous difference in the price of October and May cotton. The average annual fluctuation between May and October is about twenty-five dollars, or sixty per cent at the present time of the value of a bale of cotton. Is it any wonder that there is great complaint among the producers of cotton? Calculate this sum for ten years, and you will see that practically all of the profit made on the cotton crop has been by the middleman who have purchased it at distress prices in the fall and have sold it in the spring at an enormous profit. In looking over the table of prices for the past ten years, I find that only during one year, 1908, has the price in the fall exceeded the price in the ontnno' Tr? 1Q11 T TI7Q a nffprpd si Y and "f*1"?' *" ? ? a quarter cents for a lot of cotton In my home town. I refused to accept it, and sold the same cotton the next June for thirteen cents a pound?one hundred per cent difference in value for the same cotton. They talk about Wall street gamblers; I don't know any gambling whose risks have been so great as that of the cotton planter battling with adverse financial conditions, weather, etc. Every legitimate interest in cotton should desire to see stable prices. This never can be done If credit is freely extended in the spring to produce a sufficient crop and then rudely withdrawn at the marketing period. Here is where a proper warehouse system performs its function of transforming cotton into a liquid asset, enabling the producer to carry his product over the twelve months, instead of dumping it on the market in October of November. The lien law is largely responsible for this condition, and has been an uiiuuu^airu tui ac iu uic nuum, mcw%ing of us a one-crop credit country. This law was useful after the war, but was continued long after the necessity for its existence had ended. It is responsible for so many large land owners living in the towns on their rents and leaving the negro tenant and lien merchant to skin the land. Cotton is our money crop, and the tenant is forced to the "all cotton plan" to pay his rent and lien account. If he has money in the tail it is consumed during the winter in buying feed for his stock and provisions for his family, and my experience is that we have been traveling n a circle and getting nowhere. The lienee cannot allow the tenant to hold his cotton because he must meet his own obligations. The warehouse receipt has only been good at the local bank, because of the various liens by the landlord and others casting a cloud on the title of the cotton, and any warehouse system that does not provide a receipt which carries title to the cotton cannot meet the situation when outside money is needed. In South Carolina we have met this difficulty by the state declaring that the warehouse receipt carries absolute title to the cotton, which is to be delivered only on the presentation of the receipt. The lender of money in New York or Boston must know absolutely when he makes a cotton loan that no landlord's lien, or perhaps a trumped-up claim by collusion between creditors, can prevent him from selling the cotton when he calls for it to satisfy his evidence of indebtedness. The warehouse is placed in charge of a bonded state warehouse commissioner. In addition to this, it is essential that the receipt guarantee that the identical cotton upon which the money is loaned be delivered, thus oreventiner substitution of inferior grades, which has been frequently done. Further, the weights and grades of the cotton should be guaranteed in favor of the party who loans the money; otherwise, if loaning eighty per cent of the value on the supposition that it is middling cotton, a small decline in the market might entail Ior*.-. A warehouse system, in order to be a success, must proceed upon the Idea of facilitating, not obstructing, business. Its object should be to enable the producer to get the benefit of the operation of the laws of supply and demand throughout the twelve months, and not force him to bear all the loss of the temporary decline sure to come when the current needs of the market fail to absorb the offerings.

Forty-five hundred cases of toys arrived in New York Friday from Germany and Ausria, after being held up for several months at Rotterdam, on account of the British order in council. It is estimated that there nro ti?7 nnn nnn worth of German and Austrian goods destined for the United States, held up at Rotterdam. Negro citizens of Philadelphia are behind a movement to produce a moving picture drama, in answer to "The Birth of a Nation," produced to show the progress of the negro race since the close of the war. "The Birth of a Nation," is a picture based on one of Mr. Thomas Dixon's novels dealing with Reconstruction times in the south. A man weighing 160 pounds, jumped into a swimming pool at Asbury Park. N. J., Friday without noticing that the immense tank was being emptied through a 12-inch drain pipe. Instantly he was caught by the suction and in ten seconds, his body, horribly bruised and with both arms broken, was dumped into the ocean 250 feet away, from the swimming pool. The first annual report of the Federal bureau of war risk insurance, shows that since its creation the bureau to September 10, 1,245 policies were written, aggregating J82.709.689. Total net premiums amounted to $2,004,695.65, while the losses paid on the Evelyn, Carib, Greenbrier and Wm. P. Frye totaled $695,420.98, leaving a surplus of $1,309,244. Business was suspended at Hickman, Ky? while regulators, led by ministers and some of the more prominent citizens of the town, visited 25 alleged blind tigers and forced their proprietors and employes to leave town. This action followed a triple tragedy Thursday night, when Claude Johnson shot to death William Collins, a youth, and W. A. Naylor, a deputy sheriff, and himself was killed by a crowd of men and boys. Collins had testified that he bought whisky from Johnson. BELGIANS RAISE CROPS In Rear of Trenches Which They Have Long Held. The Belgian lines along the flooded district north of Dixmude have been practically stationary for so long a time that the soldiers are beginning to assume the domestic characteristics of settlers. Chicken coops are found at frequent intervals in he spaces behind the trenches, and hundreds of small vegetable gardens provide variety to the dally menu of their soldier owners. Officers and men find frequent opportunity to give themselves the pleasure of an afternoon's fishing, the usual reward being a fair haul of savory carp, found in the streams and canals which empty themselves into the flooded district, says an Associated Press dispatch from Dunkirk, France. The flooded district in front of the Belgium base position now covers about 10,000 acres, extending in a huge rectangle from north of Dixmude to a point east of Nieuport. It is hardly correct to say that the Belgian lines have been absolutely stationary here, even for the last few months. Little by little the Belgians have pushed forward here and there until they have established their advance trenches in most places well on the north side of the flooded area, at distances of a mile to two miles from their base positions. These advance positions are approached across the water barrier over narrow roadways of planking supported on piles. All the supplies for the troops in the advance trenches are carried from the base over these crooked, rickety bridges. Although the mosquitoes, millions of them, make their presence constantly known throughout the flooded area, the sanitary conditions everywhere are excellent, and the health of the soldiers has been phenomenally good. The fear that contamination of the stagnant flood waters would inevitably lead to epidemics has been neutralized by the excellent work of the Belgian medical and sanitary officers, who with great care have removed and destroyed every possible source of contamination, particularly the dead bodies of men and horses which for a time rose frequently to the surface of the waters. The average depth of the water in the flooded area is about four feet. It is impossible for the enemy to advance on foot through this comparatively shallow lake because of the presence everywhere of depressions, many of them abandoned cellers or huge shell holes. WOMAN AND THE HOME Fact, Faahion and Fancy Calculated to Intereat York County Women. This is a sure and harmless cure for warts: Go to the drug store and get ten cents worth of cinnamon oil and put it on the warts every night and in the morning if you wish. Do not be afraid of getting it on the other skin around the warts, for it will not hurt it. The warts will soon start to dis appear as quickly as they came. It is best to apply wth a toothpick. * * Petticoats. Petticoats of muslin are back again In the feminine wardrobe after an enforced retirement of several seasons' duration. They are shaped somewhat differently from their predecessors, having been influenced by the changing lines in outer apparel. Some of the new models incline to close fitting hip lines and flaring flounce. There are others that are only moderately wide through the hem. One reason advanced for the maintenance of the comparatively narrow petticoat is that with the revival of the very wide outer skirt, particularly as advocated for dance purposes, the need for the clinging foundation skirt is at once apparent. Lingerie makers in Paris have not been seriously disturbed b.v the war. Naturally this work is done by women, and the greater trouble has been to get It transported to this country. Look on the Sunny Side. Every cloud has a silver lining, no matter how black it may seem. And if your eyesight is keen you can look right through the outer covering of darkness and see the silver lining shining through. No matter how great trouble you may be In, there Is a bright side to It, lf^ou know how to look. Just at first your eyes may be blinded by the appalling darkness of it all, but the minute you become accustomed to it and begin to look around, you will see little glimmers of the light shining through the blackness. Never give way to despair when trouble grips you. The only power that trouble has over you is the power you give it. Each and every one of us has his share of grief and trouble, but those of us who give way to it go under. Only those stay on top who have learned to look through and beyond the darkness of trouble to the sunshine of peace and content. The Pantry. Several of the readers have requested some good cake and cookie recipes which do not demand too great cost for the ingredients. A most delicious cake can be made from the remains of ice cream from the Sunday dinner. If you have a plateful left, try this and see: Take one tablespoonful of butter, one egg, two tablespoonfuls of sugar; beat together, add one cupful of melted ice cream, one teaspoonful of baking powder, enough flour to make a nice batter?and you have a nice cake, with little trouble. Apple Sauce Cake. Cream together one cup of sugar and half a cup of shortening; add a little salt, half a teaspoonful of cloves, one teaspoonful of cinnamon, a little nutmeg, one cup of raisins dredged in flour. Dissolve one teaspoonful of soda in a little hot water, then stir into a cup of sour apple sauce, letting it foam over the other ingredients. Beat all together, add one and threequarter cupfuls of flour and one cup of chopped nuts. Bake fifty or sixty minutes in a slow oven. This is as good as fruit cake and keeps as well. Auburn Molasses Cookies. To one cup of lard and butter mixed and melted allow two cups of molasses, two spoonfuls of soda -dissolved first in two tablespoonfuls of boiling water; then, beaten into the molasses until it foams, two eggs, a pinch of salt, a toKlnonAr.nfnl r\f rri n(ror q nrl a tonannnn. ful of cinnamon. Add flour to mix very soft, and let the dough stand for an hour before rolling out. Cut into cookies of an inch thick and bake in a rather hot oven until a rich brown. Ash Cake. One quart of cornmeal, two teaspoonfuls of salt, one tablespoonful of shortening, boiling water. Add salt and shortening, scald meal. When mixture is cool form it into oblong cakes, adding more water if necessary. Wrap cakes In cabbage leaves or place one cabbage leaf under the cakes and one over them; cover with hot ashes. DREAMS Editor Writes on Life With an Inspiration. Stick to your dream, boy. Let nothing swerve you from the path that leads upward toward the fulfillment of your life's ambition. You will meet with difficulties and discouragements, but when you do, just think of the man Herreshoff, the boat builder, who died the other day up in Rhode Island. In his life you ought to find inspiration enough to lift you over any obstacle. A writer In one of our exchanges says that when John B. Herreshow was a boy his ambition was to design and build the fastest boat in the world. He became blind when yet a boy. That would have discouraged any ordinary boy, for how could a blind man design a model that he could not see? But Herreshoff was no ordinary boy. He stuck to his dream. The heavy handicap of blindness only made him press on all the harder. The blind boy sat in eternal darkness and whittled out his boat models. Gradually there developed in his fingers a muscle sense that was worth more to him than eyesight would have been. Slipping the model of a boat through his hands he could tell how it should be shaped to slip through the water with the least resistance. Other designer.- figured out their models by complex mathematical calculations. But the blind boy felt with his sensitive fingers and his models were the best, for when he was twenty-four years old he built the fastest yacht the world has ever known and, while he could not see the boat go. he felt the dash and plunge and swiftness of it. and he wept when they told him his boat had won the race. The fame of the blind designer of fast boats spread round the world, and England, Russia and Italy gave him contracts for their fastest torpedo boats. He died a few days ago, a wealthy man, better than that, a successful man, for he had stuck to his boyhood's dream and achieved it fully. ?Fort Mill Times.
