Despite repeated defeats, those back of the enterprise renewed their efforts with every. available opportunity, and won lina! and last lug victory before the Supreme Court of South Carolina Ibis week.

For ? sometime the collection of re fuso has hoon mic of thc most remun erativo of tho smaller businesses. Tliero's more gold to bo mined out of tho rubbish heaps of the cities than Croesus boasted of. it is Indeed un ill wind that blows nobody good. KKK PI Nil ENGAGEMENTS Successful business men are prompt in keeping their engagements. They realise that an appointment might mean something to them and also to thc person they have it with. Appoint monts and engagements are inado to bo kept, und thc man who does not keep them sometimes loses opportun iste? that would probably mean much to him in a business way. Not only ls the keeping of engage ments important because lt some times causes ono to lose business, but abo bec?iiBO ono loses prestige if he ls not* In the habit of keeping his ap po.utments and within a reasonable length of lime within which they are made.
