It cannot be that our life is a bubble cast up by the ocean of eternity to float a moment upon its waves and sink into nothing ness. Else, why is it the high and glorious aspirations which leap like angels from the temple of our hearts are forever wandering unsatisfied Why is it that the rainoow and cloud come over us with a beauty that pass off and leave us to muse of theli loveliness. Why is it that the stars which hold their festival around the midnight throne are set above the grasp of our limited faculties, forever mocking us with their unapproachable glory? And finally, why is it that the bright forms of human beauty are presented to our view and' taken from us, leaving the thousand streams of our affections to blow back in an Alpine torrent upon our hearts? We are born for higher destiny than that of the earth. There ia a realm, where the rain bow never fades, where the stars will be spread out before us like the is lands that slumber on the ocean and where the beautiful beings which pass before us like shadows will stay for ever in our presence. In these beau tiful thoughts we can all find much to be thankful for, even if a vacant chair is in our home and the dark side of life seems turned towards us. They will place a silver lining back of any cloud. We all have much to be thankful for. Premiums for Swine and Cattle..

The County Fair after paying all Its current expenses for running this year made a net clearance of from $3,000 to $4,000. In other words the money derived from admissions, rent ing floor spaces In the main building, and all other sources, paid every ex pense of the Fap.r for this year, and will leave a balance of about $3,500 for the Fair treasury. Of the $10,000 capital stock, only about $7,000 has been collected. The buildings at the Fair grounds cost about $9,000 while the land cost $5,500, making the total cost of grounds and l^nds about $14,500. Now it' the entire capital stock were paid in together with the surplus froL* this year's run, would only lack $500 to be able to pay for a complete $14,500 equipment; which will at all times be well worth the money in vested. Therefore the stock of the County Fair Association ought to be worth $14 a share instead of the par value of $10. This is indeed a fine record, and one that the management may be proud of. Next year, however, they contemplate making the Fair even better, and are now thinking seri ously of having a negro building put up. At the same time they want to build a woman's building, with an auditorium on tho second floor. Need less to say that these additions would make the Fair much better than it was this time. The Fair next year will only be four days instead of five, thereby giv ing exhibitors Monday of the week in which to j)ring their exhibits in, and the last day of the week for them to take them home. The advertising spaces in the main building will be for rental again next year. Already three of them have been reserved, and the remaining spaces will be tak en up easily by next year. Program at Theato. "A Handsomer Man," which it a Vitagraph to be exhibited at The The ato today. It is entitled toninstinted praise, for it is essentially one of the funniest and most comical of motion pictures. The comic situations that tIiis man finds himself in are enjoyed by every one but himself?a jealous person is never amusing to himself, but intensely droll to observers. So you will find "A Handsomer 'Man" the essence of refined comedy. Feat tering Maurice Costello. Also "The Switchman's Tower" (Edison) "The Ad. the Maid and the man" (Pathe) Jubilee Missionary Meeting.

Local Items of Personal Interest to Our Readers. The County Fair had ideal weather after all. Now let all pull for a greater Coun ty Fair next year. Have you Investigated The Times and Democrat's voting contest? Some people Imagine that they have nothing for which to give thanks but imagination is deceptive. The Grand Contest of The Times and Democrat started Tuesday and will end February 15. The majority of the stores have agreed to close their places of busi ness on Thanksgiving Day. Editor Steadman Weathersbee, ot the Branchville Journal, was In the city yesterday on business. We hope when the time comes for the next County Fair, Orangeburg will have street cars. Dr. I. L. Reeves, of this city, won a blue ribbon at the County Fair for the best Jersey cow, two years and older. One young lady who has entered The Times and Democrat voting con test got four new subscribers one ?day last week. A white man named Wallace was recently convicted of stealing a watch from Dr. ortsworth at Wagener and sent to the chaingang for sixty days. Ex-Sheriff John H. Dukes had on exhibition at the County Fair, some mule hoof hogs. They were fine look ing animals, and are said- to be chol era proof. Charity begins at home, but at Thanksgiving time it ought to go vis aing and help to make happy the lives of those to whom the turkey is only a memory or a mockery. The Times and Democrat's enter prise in publishing the list of premi um winners before the County Fair closed Is commended on all fides, it was hard work, but we got there. The turkey, whistled Boftly and sad ly, "I Would Not Live Alway," as he gazed solemnly at the calendar and realized that Thanksgiving day was almost here. We have received the Wegener Ed isto News, which we enter upon our exchange list. It is published at the hustling little city of Wagener and is full of local news. May it iive long and prosper. The residence of Mr. B. C. Cooper, near Salley, was recently burned with all Its contents except a piano, which which was carried out. Mr. Coopei sustained a loss o:.' several thousand dollars. In sending in ballots contestants In tho voting contest of The Times and Democrat will please state the number of the votes they send In that they want reserved to the end of the contest. The success of the County Fair dumbfounded those folks who had been knocking it as hard1 as they could up to the day it opened. They have all put up their hammers now since the Fair was such a grand suc cess. Don't you want that fine piano that The Times and Democrat will give away in its voting contest? If so, join the the ranks of the contestants and go to work getting subscribers or renewals. You would have just 'as good a chance as anyone else. Tho piano offered by The Times and Democrat is no shoddy affair. It is furnished by the well-kncwn Mar chant Music house of this city, and they will guarantee it. Call at their music store on Russell street and see It for yourself. Among the exhibits in the main building, at the County Fair, was one of especial interest to the farmers? that of the Southern Bell Telephone Co. It consists of everything that a progressive farmer should have, in the telephone line. Good for Branchville School. The Journal says: "The Branch vlJle High School was the only school in the county that captured two firsts in the events at Tuesday's Educa tional Day exercises at the Orange burg County Fair. This gave the local school a total of 35 points, and won the championship banner. Prof. Byrd and his pupils went to Orange burg to win and they did it. Isn't it wonderful how Branchville makes things hum when she tries! Wheth er it is in giving a banquet or taking part in an Educational Day contest, Pranchville always comes out on top. Once more, altogether: Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Branchville. Excursion to Savannah.
