All breaches of the laws of health are physical sins. When this is generally seen, then, and not till then, will the physical education of the young, receive the attention it deserves.-Her Mr. Ford's Bill. The following is the bill intro duced in the house by Mr. C. S. Ford. The same was killed: A RILL Providing for a Tax for the Bete ter Enforcement of the Dis pensary Law. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina: Section 1. Whenever, within the judgment of the Governor, there is a failure of the proper enforcement of the dispensary law in any county, upon nc,tico to the auditor of such county one half mill shall be lived upon all taxable property within said county and collected by the treas urer thereof in the same manner as other taxes are now levied and collected, for the purpose of defraying the expenses of the proper enforcement of said law within said county, under and by direction of the Governor; when said tax has been collected it sball be forwarded to the State treasurer, and by him held for said purpose until paid out as now provided for by law in such case. Any balance left over in the State treasurer at the end of any one year shall ue returned to the county treasurer of the county to which it belongs, and expended as other county funds are ex pended. Sec. 2. That all acts or parts of acts providing for any other tax for said purpose or in conflict with the provisions of this act be, and the same are hereby, repeal ed. Poisons in Food.

Pronunication. The following rather curious piece of composition was placed upon the blackboard at a certain teachers' institute and a prize of a dictionary offered to any person who could read it and pronounce every word correctly. The book was not carried off, as twelve was the lowest number of mis takes in pronunciation made. "A sacrilegious son of Belial who has suffered from bronchitis. having exhausted his finances in order to make good the deficit, reselved to ally himself to a comely, lenient and docile young lady of the Malay or Caucasian race. He accordingly purchased a caliope and coral necklace of a chameleon hue and securing a suite of rooms at a principal hotel he engaged the head waiter as his coadjutor. He then dispat<hed a letter of the most unex.ceptional calligraphy extant<inviting the young lady to a matinee. She revolted at the idea, refused to consider herself sacrificable to his desires and sent a polite note of refusal, on receiving which he procured a carbine and bowie knife, said he would not now forge letters hymneneal with the queen and went to an isolated spot, severed his jugular vein and discharged the contents of the carbine into his abdomen. The debris was removed by the coroner." The Secret of Success. Forty million bottles of August Flower sold in the United States alone since its introduction!

For sale by Obear Drug Co. is It Right? Is it right that a property owner should lose $4.20 to let a dealer make 50 cents? A dealer makes 50 cents more on fourteen gallons of ready-to-use paint, at $1.50 per gallon, than our agent does on eight gallons of L. & M. paint and six gallons of linseed oil, which make fourteen gallons of the best paint in the world, at $1.20 per gallon; the property owner loses just $4.20. Is it right? It only requires 4 gallons of L. & M. and 3 gallons linseed oil to paint a moderate sized house. Ten Thousand Churches paint ed with Longman & Martinez L. & M. Paint.
