Charleston, S. C., a town of quaint I
old ttreets, musty churches, lovely old I
trees, and hand-wrought Iron doors and j
Sates that first opened to admit subjects
of a British king.
One leaves all this behind and rides
oat over 12 miles of the roughest of
country roads under trees decorated
with long ghostlike strands of Span- j
lsh moss to enter a church whose doors
wing open but once a year. It Is St.
Andrew's church, In St. Andrew's parish,
and It opens once annually because
this was the condition stipulated In
the original crown grant St. Andrew's
church was built In 1702. For a century
or more It was the regular Sunday
meeting place of rich and aristocratic
Southerners who lived on adjoining
plantations, and It Is not dlfllcult on a
^'warm spring day to stand under the
moss-hung trees nenr the church and
Visualize the past. The men and wom

church-going In those days, and they

St. Andrew's la not the only church

Creek church, some ten miles away,
and built In 1700, was also built under
a crown grant with the same provision.
" With the growth of the city, known
then as "Charleston by the Sea," and
with better roads, the attendance at
the small parish churches diminished.

reduced In grandeur and wealth by
the Civil war, and the slaves were

Woman As Bull Flghtsr.
One would have thought thut to enter
into combat with a bull demanded
more courage than any member of the (
gentler sex possesses. But even this '
dangerous tailing has had Its female
follower, Ixmdon Tlt-Blts states. ,
"Johanna Maestrlck was the name of i
the lady In question. At an early age
she was taken to see a bull fight In
Portugal. Her feminine susceptibilities,
far from revolting at the spectacle,
were aroused to a keen desire and determination
to emulate the prowess of
the toreador. A teacher of the art was
no struck with her keenness, physique, 't
and beauty that he offered to become
her Instructor and to train her as a
torera. She made her first appearance
In the arena at Oporto. The trial
proved that her nglllty and skill were
equal to her courage, for she quickly
laid out two ferocious bulls and rode
off In triumph amid thunders of applause.
Where Janet Excelled.
Hubert and Prank were much smltten
with the two little girls who were
enuring In the cabin next to them.
Helen was Rupert's favorite and Janet
was Frank's. Unobserved I heard them
discussing the merits of each sweetheart.
"Helen's the prettiest, don't you
think?" asked Rupert.
"Maybe she Is." conceded Frank;
"but Janet's the swlmmlngest."?Chicago
Tribune.
WOMEN GIVE OUT.
Housework is hard enough when
healthy. Every Lancaster woman who
's having backache, blue and nervous
spells, dizzy headaches and kidney or|
bladder troubles, should be glad to1
heed this Lancaster woman's experience:
Mrs. T. J. Hunter, Elm St., says:
"I can certainly recommend Doan's!
Kidney Pills, for they have done me
a wonderful lot of good. A few years
ago I was taken with a sharp pain in
the small of my back and I could
>ardly straighten up. The pains were
simply terrible. My nerves were all
unstrung and I thouht I would go
wild. Dizzy spells bothered me, too,
and I felt tired out most of the time.
My kidneys gave me a lot of trouble,
also. Some friends recommended
Doan's Kidney Pills and I began using
them. It only took Doan's Kidney
Pills a short time to give me
splendid relief and after I had finished
one box, I was entirely cured."

A portrait of Susan It. Anthony, to- '

convention Of 184#?the first active 1

represents Miss Anthony not as an tn- I

All the Kitten's Fault. t
My father and mother were married
at St. Paul. The room In which they
were to be married had a white cloth
tacked down over the carpet and au ^
altar arranged at one'slde.
Just before the wedding party entered
a little black kitten ran Into the
room and Jumped about on the white
cloth and In front of the altar until (
some one drove It out. Some said It
was n sign of bad luck, hut the others
laughed at their superstition.
The couple traveled to Chicago on 1
their honeymoon. The night they ar- s
rived the old cow kicked the lamp over c
and Chlcngo burned up. They lost 1
their entire wardrobe, and all their %
money, barely escaping with their f
lives.?Exchange. }

Huns Have a Town Crier.
The ofllcers of the regiment have
nothing on the burgomaster of Polch
when it comes to having a striker. The
only difference Is that he Is u clanger,
for he rings the bell to announce new
tidings to the populace. For Instance,
if the square-heads are not on the
square with Americans nnd a fine Is
Imposed, the tidings of Heinle's hard ,i
luck must be published broudeast. So tl
