ELEGANT RECEPTION.
Pretty Women?Lovely ; Scene-Delightful
Evening.
Mr. and Mrs. Frederic MinRhall 1nvl?ed s
number of tbelr friends to meet Miss Mln
shall and Mit-s Grace MlnsLall at the borne 01
. Mrs. W. P. Greene on Friday evening, tbf
' 12tb, from nine to eleven of tbe clock, where
I tbe In vlted guests met with a cordial reception
and an elegant entertainment. A host
ofnrettv ladles and bandsomegentlemen lent
tbe pleasure of tbe^r presence to me occasion
and all were glad to meet tbe beloved kins
women of tbe honored hosts.
Tbe visiting young ladles came from the
snow>capped hills of Virginia. They came
from a colder atmosphere to tbe more genial
rays of a more Southern sun. They came
among warm hearts, where they are welcomed
Into hospitable homes and we hope
* that they may In return love both oar warm
hearts and oar bospltable homes.
A lew ye?ri? ago one ol our prettiest yonng
ladles captured t"elr brother. Mr. Frederick
Mlnshall, and since then she has made ol
blm a naturalized citizen and a patriotic son
p- Of tbe old Palmetto mate. And we see no
good rexsoo why me vitmiug j<>uuS iiwm
may not be Induced to stay iperraadently In
tbe land wblob ban adopted tbelr brother an
i Its own, and which ket;ps him employed in
./ building up tbe best Improvements to our
modern towns.
) The handsome yonne ladles, In themselves,
I who so gracefully helped to receive on this
delightful occasion, made ho array of beauty
/ and a scene of female lovllness which was
sufficiently entrancing to make tbe angels
Jealous of their prestige. Begging pardon for
tbe omlMion of aoy oame which we may not
have secured, we mention the following :
Miss Maud McClung,
Miss Mary Starke,
Miss Fannie Starke,
Miss Lucy Henry,
MlssSallle White,
Miss Plevena Seal,
Mrs. Coleman.
An Interesting feature of ibe evening was
tbe wheel or fortune, where those wbo might
wlsb to know something of tbelr futureoould
find out wltb a degree or certainty tbe bapplnees
and fate wbicb were in store for tbem.

Indian Meal Muffins.? Tbe directions
for these muffins varies to tbe

is purchased. In tbe South where the
muffins are made of white, sweet,
freshly ground meal, neither sugar noi

requisite richness. Beat to a creatr

Marriage and Income.
Margaret E. Sangster.
L I met a pair of elegant paupers one
day in New York. Dick had ten thouk
sand ayear, and Dolly's mother bought
Dolloy's wardrobe. But they were
[ hopelessly involved in debt and mad;
deued by duns, and bemoaniug their
Ifufo hori tn flu frnm the fiitV and burv
; themselves id the suburb. Stretch it
as you will, you can not make ten thousand
dollars do the work of forty thousand,
and cover colossal extravagance.
| I know and honor a very rich pair,
married many years ago, and grand1
parents now, with sons and daughters
j eminent for brains, honor and usefulness.
The husbaud is the pastor of a
country parish, hidden among the hills,
and five hundred dollars is the largest
' stipend be has ever had. Tihs couple
never had debt?, and their boys and
Kirls went to college. Plain living and
high thinking have been the rule in
the parsonage, they have not even
felt poor;everything being comparative
in this world, the real wealth has beeD
to them more than tinsel, pomp and
vanities.
I know college towns where the scale

and refinement prevail, and the atmosphere
is perfumed with goodness, and
children grow up emulating the best in
character and attainment. I know in*
dustrial towns where the hum of machinery
is heard from morning till
night, and thrift and a wholesome ambition
prevade the community. In
the ideal American town, few are very
rich and no one is very poor. The
problem is of easy solution, if the couple
intending to marry shall pitcb
their tent in either of these places;
either in a quiet educational village or
a bustling factory town. If a mighty
commercial center on the seashore or
lakeside be chosen as a residence, the
difficulties will be greater, but common
sense and brains aod a high ideal of
honor will help in unraveling the

Uses of the Foot-Bath.
Have you ever tried treating a cold
by means of a foot-bath ? Take a thorough
foot-bath, to which mustard has
added. By " thorough " ia meant tnat
the feet shall be placed in water which
will come high up the calves of the
legs, and the water as hot as the feet
can bear. Then, by continually adding
hot water, the foot-bath should be
kept as hot as can bo borne for twenty
minutes. At the same time hot water
should be drunk freely. The patient
is ready for bed, after drying the feet
thoroughly. Cover up warmly with
extra clothing, and place something
warm to the feet. If there is a cough
and pain i.n the chest a hot application
may be given to the chest after the
foot-bath.
T? monn <*aooa thin frpufmpnt. Will
suffice to break the cold. If not, repeat
at least every day. Should the
cold not yield to one or two treatments
try fasting. Not necessarily entire
abstinence from food, but the eating of
a limited amount of very simple food.
Headaches will yield to a foot-bath
without other treatment. Try it. If
the head is hot wring a towl from cold
water and wrap around the bead.
Habitually cold feet are treated by
the alternate hot and cold foot-baths.
Persist in the treatment every night,
or both night and morning.
Some people suffer with difficulty in
going to sleep. The brain is active,
and because of the multitude of
.thoughts sleep will not come. A
warm foot-bath may be all that is
needed.
A tepid foot-bath will be found very
restful and quieting to the tired nerves
of a busy housewife. She will resume
her work, refreshed, after the simple
treatment.
The warm foot-bath is found helpful
to the weak heart.
Pain in the heart from organic heart
disease will frequently be very much
roltpvpri hv aimnlv nlapinc the feet for
a short time in a moderately warm
foot-bath. It does not need to be so
hot that the patient can hardly bear it.

UNCLE SAM'S BOADS.
AMERICA BEHIND OTHER NATIONS IN
HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT.
Annual Expenditures Here and In
Enropean Countries For Good
Roads?Cost of Building Highways
In Some of Oar States.
The United States does not begin to
spend the amount of money upon Its
public highways that it costs to construct
and maintain the public roads
of England and European countries.
While this country leads the world in
Its railroads and street railways, it Is
far behind most countries across the
Atlantic In its system of public highways.
England and Wales spend annually
$20,000,000 on their roads, Ireland
$3,000,000, France $37,500,000,
while the United States, the pioneer of
all nations in public improvements, the
leader of the world in devising and
perfecting plans to add to the comfort
and welfare of mankind, lags in the
'nro with thf> disgraceful record of
spending $40,000 upon its federal plan
of public road Improvement
This does not include, of course, the
annual expenditures of the various
states of the Union, says the Buffalo
Express. If these sums were included,
the comparison would not be so unfavorable,
for there will be expended this
year close on to $10,000,000 throughout
the country for the betterment of public
highways. Moreover, the outlook
for the future is exceedingly bright
The possibilities are that by the end of
another decade the combined expenditures
of the federal government and
the various states will equal $50,000,000
a year for the construction and
maintenance of public highways.
There are fully 200 good roads organizations,
national, state and county,
in the United States.' The association
that Is doing the most work for
the betterment of highways throughout
the country is that known as the
American Roadmakers. The membership
of this association Is limited to
ten Influential men in each state, one
of the provisions of Its constitution being
that there shall not be more than
ten members from each state.
When New Jersey, which was the
pioneer state in the good roads movement,
first began to improve its roads,
It cost $10,000 per mile. They are now

being constructed for $2,000 to $5,000
per mile, most of them costing only
$2,500. This Is due to the greater knowledge
and practical experience gained
by the road builders as well as by the
use of improved machinery and methods.
In Michigan, Ohio and other western
states roads are being constructed
at a much less figure, some of them
costing not more than $1,000. As might
be expected, these roads are not as
durable as those upon which a greater
amount of money is expended.
New York pays about $5,000 to $7,000
a mile and builds a very thoroughly
constructed road out of crushed stone
under the direction of the state engineer
and in accordance with the state
aid plan, which provides that the state
shall pay 50 per cent of the cost of construction
of the roads, 35 per cent lfl
paid by the county and 15 per cent by
the town in which the road is improved.

proving their highways and have long
been recognized as among the most
progressive states of the Union in this
regard, each expending $500,000 a year
on the improvement of its roads.
The state of Georgia is, perhaps, the
most progressive among the southern
states. For a number of years it has
employed a large amount of prison labor
in the construction of its roads,
using prisoners, both black and white,
in crushing stone and in constructing
the roads. The system of employing
prison labor has been so successfully
carried out that it has been adopted
in other states.
A most interesting good roads campaign
Is being conducted In the state of
Michigan by Senator Earle. The senV?

small cars for carrying Btone and a

drawn by the traction engine, which
is also converted into a road rollei
and is employed in finishing the road.
New Jeraey'a Good Roadi.
During the past twelve months $450,000
was spent In macadamizing public
roads in New Jersey, and for this
comparatively small sum the state now
has 140 miles of the finest rural thoroughfares
in the country. Altogether
New Jersey has 641 miles of these fine
highways.

. HOW TO ATTAIN OLD AGE.
Advice From an Authority on the
Subject of Longevity.
Of the giving of recipes for longevity
there is apparently no end. Every
man or woman who has reached out
i far beyond the allotted threescore
I years and ten Is made the subject of
an entertaining argument to prove the
points of this or that contender.
Every abnormality in the shape of
Btrengxn 01 arm, 01 dock, uj. geuenu
system, is used as an illustration of
the virtues of this or that system of
I exercise or living. It Is the opinion of
a good many laymen that mankind
does entirely too much thinking on the
subject of how to live to a ripe old age.
Less worry on this point might lead
to the desired result.
But there never will be less worry.
Even now the list of systems for prolongation
of man's days Is being augII
mented. The very latest suggestion
,1 comes from a physician of credit and
renown. He thinks that there Is a
very great deal of benefit or of Injury
| In the wearing of certain kinds of
i clothing.
According to this authority, the
wearing of flannel next the skin Is
, immensely Injurious to the general run
| of men and women. Cotton Is king, in
, I his opinion- For summer wear he
I suggests a calico shirt, while balbrigI
ran cotton is his idea of winter cov
! erlng. The main point of his theory
Is the necessity of wearing always the
same kind of material next the skin,
whether this be of linen, cotton or
wool.
