[BT REQUEST.] ' '*- * \ Temperance in South Carolina. From, the Temperance Worker. Mr. F. M. Bradley, Washington D. C.-Dear 8ir : In reply lo your request for information as to the status of the .temperance sentiment in South Carolina, I have thrown to gether a few suggestions, which time will not permit me to elaborate, but which I tr na t you will find sufficient for your parp?se. The growth of tue temperance sen timent in South Carolina has for many years been steady and healthful. In no State was the seed sown earlier and in none has it been more carefully, persistently and judiciously cultivated and the result baa been tbs outgrowth cf a sentiment in favor of temperance and in opposition to the liquor traffic, which pervades all classes of society and has embodied itself permanently and potentially in the habits and laws of our people. The proof of the truth of this state rajnt isiqun?.in,Jhe. facts, which will not be questioned, that the State can show, perhaps, a larger proportion of pe: sons pledged to temperance princi pies.among the white popnlaion tran any other State, and that in no State is the legal prohibition of the sale of intoxicating liquors more stringent, better sustained by the public senti ment, or more effective in its operation, than in South Carolina. This latter statement may appear aMjrst sight tobe made without suffi cientsfonndation, but it is deliberately adetntuTrvievToi the TiCT8_b'!"?hF e. . The organizations for the promotion temperance which originated in &!?^!?.T?DJ J6!??8P"01 to the war had, at the period of its commence ment, extended their influence to every portion, of-the State and em braced every element of society, and the whole white population may be said at that time to have become thor oughly imbued with the principles of temperance. After the war South Carolina was among the first of theSonthern States to revive her disorganized temperance forces and unite with the grand army which under a common ensign, was battling against the universal foe, and there are to-day as many pledged men and women, in proportion to population, as in any other State, to say nothing of the army of co-work ers and sympathizers who are outside of any organization, but who are bound to us by a thousand ties as allies in this conflict against the pow e:s of evil. The history of the legislation of j this State within the past few years shows the remarkable growth of the public sentiment on the subject. Threef years' since without any spe cial agitation of the question, the Legislaturepassed an Act absolutely proS?B?t?Dg"the sale of intoxicants outside of incorporate cities, townB and villages, and although this action pro voked a*determined opposition from Oe liquor interestsand those in sym pathy with them, and extraordinary efforts were made to break through the law it-was everywhere rigidly en forced and the results were so satis factory that the next Legislature, so far from relaxing, made its provisions more stringent aijd^addexl;* local op tion law which applied to the cities* towns and villages exempted from the operations of the prohibitory Act Besides "this, by special Acts, in every instance where the respectable element in any city, town or village applied/for ^.B^rjf^ietiC prohibition of the traffic; it was granted, and the charters of very many of the larger municipalities havcoJn Ijurpagt^thlee or four years been>eo caaDged as to perpetually forbid .- the traffic ? within their corporations. | ^ m j At the recent session of the Legis lature a further etep WSB taken on this legislation, and the provisions of total prohibition were extended over two entire counties, one in.the lower ( malarial) section of the-Slate, wLere it was olaimafi-?iat whiskey waa nec essary, IraS&OTa laborer alive, a?e?ti? other in tbe mountain section, where thjetraffio ^moonshine whisky has heretofore been regarded as so strongly entrenched in the sympathies and interests of the people as to be proof against all efforts to suppress it. In the few instances where the deal ers have attempted to resist or evade the law, the courts have promptly im posed the r^?^pgsaltfi and these i*-r salutary tfl'ect ul disarming all opel attempts at violation. To summarize the" condition c the work in Sonth Carolina at thi time, I. may say that t?tere is, per haps, no one subject upon whicl the sentiment of the people is so wei harmonized and their policy so de termined, as that the tr?mo in intoxi cants is an evil which must be abol ished. . In thirteen of the' thirty.-.three coun ties of the State complete prohib? tion prevails. In the other twenty liquor is sold only in one or two lo calities; while in nearly all the large towns and villages it bas been pro hibited by special enactment or vol ?ntary election of the people, eavi in the cities of Charleston, Columbia Greenville, Newberry, Anderson Que Georgetown. This condition of public seutimem is the result of a steady ed neat iona growth through many years, and fron this fact we indulge the confident be Iii f that no step backwards will nt taken by the people or tolerated ir their representatives in the future and that the day is not fir distant when the whole State will be redeem ed and disen'hralled from the cures of the liquor traffic. Yours fraternally, T. J.^AMOTIg.^, Better Than a Lawsoif. c? <3 [Peck's Sun ] Not many months ago a man felt aggrieved at something that appeared in the Sun, and after blowing around for a day or two he came to the office to interview the editor. He explain ed his grievance, and wound it up saying that his lawyer told him that the article was libelous, and that he could recover damages. The editor never had a lawsuit, and never wanted one, and he said to the man, " Part ner, a lawsuit is a foolish way to en joy religion. Now, I'll tell you what to do. You go to the president ol the Merchants'Association, of which yon are a member and I am not. Have the president appoint a com mittee of five men from the associa tion to hear your statement. You take the paper containing the obnox ious article to them, and state your case, just as Btrong as you can. I will not make any defense. Whatever amount they Fay you have been dam aged I will give you a check for, and we will shake hands and be friends, and go to the earns church as usual, and listen to the same minister preach the gospel. If I have damaged you, you must have your money, but we don't wan't to spend the balance of our lives in a lawsuit." The man stopped and thought a minute, and said : ?' That ie the fairest proposition I ever heard, and you don't owe me a cent and the matter shall drop from this moment." If people would never go into a lawsuit until they couldn't go into anything else, there would be fawer men with enemies all around, and" while lawyers mlgVl 'li'lVrj sifing around, it would do them good in the end. We Shall Know Each Other There. The minister of a fashionable church once preached a beautiful sermon on ?this subject. He drew thc picture of a very beautiful heaven. We wonld walk in the sun-lit grov -s, by the mneic of the waterfalls, and gaza out npou Am <rantbine fields. And then, too, " we shall know each other there," said the minister, and then added, "there'll be noslrangers in the New Jerusalem; we'll all be friends." " Beautiful 1" siid Deacon Sham, as. he trott? d down the aisle. "A lovely sermon ?" s?id Mi?s Simpkine, as she put her bony hind into the minister's. She was stopped by a poor mechanic, who came up and addreseed the preacher. " Mr. -, I am glad we shall recognize each other up there." " Yes," said the mi?ister, "it is ore of the greateet consolations of our rc ligion." " Well, I'm right glad wo shall know each other. It will be the great change, though; for I have attended your church for over four veard, and none of the members ot this society have recognized me yet. But-we shall know each other there." When an undertaker was putting the body of Catherine Mahons, who died during a spree, into a coffin at Kingston, Canada, on Wednesday1; he asked the daughter of the deceased, Mrs. Gray, if she desired to have th* corpse re dressed. Mrs. Gray said : .* No, chuck her in the way she is." When the lid was" screwVd on she leaped upon the coffin and danced like a maniac, and only ceased her antics when compelled to by the con stable. Tbe whole family were in toxicated. The Philndelphia Times appears to be coming to its penses, lt Waved the bloody shirt frantically when Mr Carlisle was elected Speaker, but now it sayB : " Utiles all the signs of the timeB shall prove false, the Rypobli cans will find that if there ia any one issue of which the people of the West are weary, ibi* that whose sym bol is the bloody shirt. There was a war feelin? here twenty years ago, but it does not exist to day. An at tempt on the part of the Republicans to make another campaign on 'he pas sionsof war, with theidea prominently advanced that tho West is still for war, will quite likely result in EOme surprises." Heart affections, kidney and liver troubles affect nearly one-half of all mankind. Yet how many beedbeely pass through a shortened lifo giving no .care to these complaints wbich cattle the human family euch great distress. Does your heart beat vio. lently f:ora the leapt excitement? Have yon fits cf dizziness? Does your back ache. Are your bowels constipated ? These symptoms are the first warningp. Delay is dangerous. Be wise in time. Regain perfect health by using Brown's Iron Bitters. Belier Dwellings for the Poor (The Current) Nearly all the English newspapers and. periodicals are discussing plana fuj^furnishin^ -better dwellings to the poor. Official inquiry has revealed a revolting sanitary crnditiou of rented tenements,.although much money, has, been spent during the last" twenty" years, building large blocks of houses for renting purposes. In England (meaning England proper) nearly two-thirds of the people live in cities and towns; and, consequently, the subject of public health is a matter of grave importance, as it should be, in fact, in this country, comparatively new as it is. Tn Lo nd on/'which seems to be ab sorbing the population of the united kingdom, blocks of wretched buildings are found where four families are huddled together in one room. Peo pie have been discovered so degraded that they prefer to live thus and de-' cliue to go i' to the new model tene ments where a lower rent is^charged. The tenement buildings erected by* the Peabody trustees paid a net gain f em the rents and interests last year of $125,000. The enormous surplus wealth in England could be profitably employed ameliorating the condition of the poor. In our own large cities there is a growing demand for similar investments and for the largest em ployment of sanitary engineering. A Prehistoric Reservoir. [Nen: York Sun.) " I've seen a good many wonderful things in my travels," said John Gregg, commercial traveller, "but the Walled lake of Iowa rather lays over everything I ever saw. Just 'imagine a body of water, coveriDg nearly three thousand acres, with a wall built up all around it, not a etone in which can be?less than one hundred pounds in weight, and some as heavy as three tons, and yet there is not a stone to be found within ten miles of the lake. The wail is ten ft-et high, about fifteen feet wide at the bottom and may be five on top The country is prairie land for miles around, except a belt of heavy timber thiit encircles the lake. Thia timber is oak, and it is plain that the trees were planted there. They are very Urge. The belt is probably half a mile wide. The water in the lake is twenty five feet deep, as cold as ice, and as clear as a crystal. " What I would like to know i?. who built that wall ? And how did they hold the water back while they were LiildiDg it? And how did they cart those immense stones for ten miles? If ever you go to Iowa, don't fail to visit the Walled lake. You'll find it in Wright county, 160 miles Irom Dubuque. The cars will take ynu almost to it." A Lillie Heretic, "Thatreminds me,"eaid afirm step per, who came in from Ann street, "that there is a little story about amiu'h/l?re daughter that ought to get into ptint She is a bright little miss, 7 or 8 years old, and has a sister two or three years younger. The younger g:rl was enlarging upon the, to her, newly dis covered fact that God created all things, when the older sister broke in with, " DJ you believe that ? Well, Istiptosse I did when I was little ?ike you, but I know better now He couldu't do it. No one pereou could make eo many muRquitoes and worms and lions and elephants and people. I have found that out," Im agine the horror of the learned doc tor over this little heretic at hi? own hearthstone. A Late liut P?riment Question. Subscriber asks : "Is it proper to eat corn from the cob, and if so, should it be eaten from the left to the right, or vice versa?" You are late in the season fur such informa ? ~. n ?? i tion. Yes, it is proper to cat corn from the cob, and at a boarding house table it is not considered bad form by the landlady -if you eat the cob aa well. Touching the proper direc tion to take, it is purely a matter of in dividual choice. If there are but few etrs on the plate, the wisest way is to eat from left to right, and then from light to left. By these means the time required jumping lrom one end of the ear to the other ls saved. - Exchange. Miss Rebecca Gray, an infant 15 months old and weighing eight pounds, was a litigant in Philadelpbii lor the recovery of a diamond ring, valued at $200, from tho agent of a show in that city, where a midget named Hop o' My Thumb was on exhibition. Ii waa advertised that the ring worn by the midget would be given to any other baby that could get it on the third finger of the right hand. Baby Gray succeeded, and, the agent re fusing to give up the ring, the suit was instituted. The agent, having to appear in Baltimore, surrendered, and the baby won ker first Buit.

Po not think, because a man snaps you up every time you apeak to him, that he has not an agreeable dieposi tion. It may be that he has a bad stomach. If the salesman is somewhat brusque reflect that he may have just spent an hour showing goods to the woman who only wanted to secure a lew samples for her crazy quilt. Do not think the conductor a surly fellow because he auswers your ques tion somewhat surlily.
