Toduy the people of the country over are looking forward to ('hautau qua week as a tim? when they may forget for a little while the ordinary routine of every day life .ind refresh themselves with new thoughts and inspirations for the rest of the year. It^ is a time when one meets his fel lows and his neighbors on a common ?round, ft ts a harbinger of goodfel lowahip and best and greatest of all feed clttscnshlp, thc citizenship upon which this country depends for its fu ture greatness. Truly. Chautauqua week should bo one of the greatest weeks in the yeer to be looked forward to and the les sons and details taught remembered and thought upon long afterwards* ( ASM AMI ChEHlT The wholesaler in buying from the lunufacturor. if it is within he re sources, takes advantage of discounts for cash or of payment inside of & specified date. The thrifty retailer, when he purchases from a wholesale house, watches his bills und gets the benefit of discounts. Hut when the retailer comes to puss his wares long to the ultimate consumer he has jone price only, whether the customer pays cash or takes his commodities un credit. The injustice of this prac tice ls evident on its face. The cash customer suppiiuH liquid cupltal for the grocer, merchant butcher, tailor, tc. and lt penalized indirectly by making good the losses lncurre<l in extension Of credit to persons who either cannot or will not pay, or the painfully slow about lt. The credit system ls the bane of business life and in many instance? ia the demoralization of the patron. Of course it cannot be wholly abolish ed. To do that would impose hard ship upon innumerable worthy folk. Rut the wonder is that dealers do not ndertnke to minimi/..- it instead of employing devices to expand and en courage lt. They make a victim of the cash customer. The Just method would be to allow discount for cash, fixing prices accordingly and with the necessary respect to credit allow ances. If there was a shading in prices for cash the Immediate result would bo to discourage unnecessary charge accounts and bring In money more promptly. As lt is the system which permits one customer to run tip an enormous bill, which may or may not be paid eventually, while charging exactly the same figure; over the counter for cash, to the man or woman who pays on the spot with out demur, evasion or delay, ls not de fensible. No merchant will pay aa much In cash for the aame gooda aa ls demanded of n?s neighbor who re quires time to meet his obligations. Discounts are followed with vigilance and- properly , so. Why, . therefore, should the conanmer who paya cash not be treated with equal considera tion? MRS.

MEDICAL SGHUOL DIB NOT WANT SUICIDE DECLINED THE OFFER OF THE BODY WAS BURIED HERE Following Medica] College's Re fusal To Take Body of Dead Man, It Was Buried A letter was received yeaerday by O. F.

This brings to a conclusion a case of considerable local Interest. There were a number of features connected with the case which Anderson people could hardily understand and some things in connection with the man taking his life will never he known, .lust why he came to Anderson for this purpose when he could have ac complished lt in Greenville ls hard to see into and why he waited until Thursday night to accomplish his pur pose when it could have been done Wednesday night In accordance with bis original plans is also hard to un derstand. .y. y.
