It is found that bicycle riding
brings on rheumatism.
A colony of negroes will leave
Atlanta in March for Liberia.
And now comes the good news
that Coosaw has gone to word
again. _______
The Coosaw Mining Company
has resumed work, to the delight
of the business men of Beaufort.
Clemson's second annual com
mencement occurred last Wednes
day. Twenty-five young men grad
uated. _ _
The most extensive cemetery
in Europe is that at Rome, in which
'over 6,000,000 human beings have
been iuterred.
Atlanta has a hotel in which
the rooms are designated by the
names of States. The office is the
District of Columbia.
Spain's minister to the United
States has been ordered home be
cause, in a letter to a supposed
friondin the old country, he call
ed McKinley "a low politician."
If silver is dead as has been
claimed, there is no excuse for
the corpse to have behaved itself
in the United State Senate last
week.-Charleston Critic.
Governor Ellerbe has beeu in
vited by President and Mrs. Mc
Kinley to attend a reception at the
White House on the 16th. This
is the first public reception of this
administration.
The house committee on com
merce on last Friday killed the
Senate bill to permit the State o?
South Carolina to control liquor?
brought into the State in original
packages, so the dispensary law
dies the death.
Representative Timmerman's
new county government bill has
passed both house and senate.
This bill retains the County Su
pervisor and two other county of
ficers, lesser lights than the Su
pervisor, but does away with the
township tadpole commissioners.
We think this a good law, csrtain
ly so as compared with the present
one.
Congressman Jerry Simpson's
exposure of Dingley's London hat
is going the rounds of the press.
The member from' Kansas can
always be depended on to spring a
sensation. And he did it in a
most successful manner with
Dingley's hat. The Republican
leader lost his head, and the more
he tried to explain, the more harm
he did himself. That hat story
will no doubt figure in the coming
campaign.
Mexico is a land of mixed races,
earthquakes, epidemics, revolutious
silver dollars. There, according
to observations of W. J. Bryan
during a recent visit, cotton mills
are paying 16 per cent dividends,
overybody is working full time
at good wages, and the whole
country blossoms as the rose.
New England is a land of churches
and schcol houses, pension
abundance, savings banks, high
tariff and the gold standard, yet
last month the wages of 125,000
cotton mill workers were cut 10
per cent.
A well known and thoroughly
. reliable gentleman in the city
informs The Register that a
private letter from oro of our
repreentives in congerss states
that the judiciary committee at its
meeting Thursday rendered a tie
vote on Senator Tillman's oill to
place the control of original pack
age stores in the hands of the
state.
There are seventeen members of
the committee, and the same letter
states that nine are in favor of the
measure while eight oppose it.
At the committee meeting only
twelve were present, and their
sentiments werp equally divided.
Another meeting of the com
mittee will be called, the previous
action reconsidered, and the bill
reported favorably, it is confidently
presumed.-Register.

We are heartily ia favor oi the

would be a measure of real reforms
and we would have an abundance
of laws even then.-The Patrtot.
A New jersey boy has just be

The case isn't as bad for the
New Euglamd cotton mill men as
it seems. If it comes to the wor&t
and they cant make ends meet up
there, there is nothing to prevent
them from pulling up slakes,
coming south, starting anew and
being happy.-Wilmington Star.
A bill has been framed for
passage by the Virginia Legislature
to "facilitate the creating of
colonels." Any gentleman who
will take the oath of office and
subscribe to the anti-dueling oath
ma}' become a colonel for life upon
the payment of a fee of one dol
lar. Dollar colonel? is a nov,1 fad.
Mi. Foraker wants to kuow it
one American dollar won't buy
two Mexican dollars. It will.
Benjy, it will ; and on the sam^
principle, and for the same reason
that fifty American dollars will
buy two bales of cotton, when
formerly they would buy only
one.-Atlanta Constitution.
A half a dozen farmers from
Illinois and Iowa have recently
purchased farms in Georgia, in the
vicinity of Little River Station,
on the Georgia Railroad.- They
have brought with Ihem improved
farming machinery and i ni pl e
ments the Augu?t;i Chronicle says
it makes a new departure in fam
ing in that State. One ol" the new
se?tleis who went to Georgia ii;
February last, has already inadei
one crop and demonstrated what
scientific farming will do. He
used the most improved machinery
and had sixty acres of laud ii.
corn, which he broke up with steei
nulky plows and cultivated with
six shovel etilky plows. The yield
was over fifty bushels shelled
cora per acre, which was more
per acre than he made in Illinois.
This gentleman says, on his arrival,
he was told the Illinois system of
farming would not do in Georgia,
but that he produced more than
twice as much corn as his native
neighbors.
It is reasonable that the same
thing can as easily be done in
South Carolina as in Georgia.

NO LOAFERS THERE,
A North Carolina Village Where
Everybody Works.
'.Three miles from nowhere, i'i
a little backwoods village over in
North Carolina, the other day, I
found the one town in the world
where everybody works and no
loafing is permitted," said a well
known traveling salesman to a
Louisville Post reporter.
"In this hamlet there is no
idleness that is not voluntary or
vicious, and this privilege ia not
allowed even to the wandering
Willie out of a job.
"Ou a sigh at the postoffice in
Beechland is this injunction:
"No loafing allowed in this town.
We work, and so must everybody
else who expects to reside here for
auy length of time. Idleness
breeds crime, and as we never had
a robbery or a murder here wo have
determined to strike at tho root
cf all evil. Tramps will be given
one hour in which to depart, and
honest, men out of employment
will be given work if they desire
it. If not they must "git," and
"git" as quick as their lazy legs
will carry them away from our
village. This means you.'"
A LOVE SONG.
My darling is over the occean,
My darling is over the se? .
She's over there hunting a title,
And that's what is bothering me.
Her father has got many millions,
Aud her mother is simplyjmraense;
They don't know a noun from an
adverb,
Or the past from the future teens.
Butthey both want their beautiful
daughter
To marry a baron, at least;
So they've taken lier over the water
To show her oft" like a caged beast.
Oh, come back, my beautiful darling,
Come hither, sweet,over the sea;
Oh, cease your mad quest for a title
Come back and be happy with me
There are other swept giris here, and
ic any
A one could, no doubt, make me
glad
But none of the rest has your wealthy,
Indulgent, illiterate dad!

WHAT IS THE VOLUNTEER MOVE
MENT?
The Student Volunteer Move
ment is widely known as an inter
denominational missionary agen
cy, having more than eight hun
dred institutions of higher learn
ing in the United States and Can
ada as ils field. It does not inde
pendently commission or support
missionaries, but works in co-ope
ration with the regular mission
Boards, and through its efforts
hundreds of missionaries have
been furnished the Boards, and are
now laboring in the Orient, Afri
ca, and South America.
Among its objects are :
1. To enlist the students in the
colleges and theological semina
ries in prayer and labor for the
proclamation of the Gospel
throughout(the world in our gen
eration.

of the continent Volunteers who
may be sent by the Boards to the
different fields for lay or clerical
service.

extensive system of educational
classes, the Chrisfiau students of

ONE OF TWO WAYS.
The bladder was created for one pur
pose, namely, a receptacle for th?
urine, andas such it, is not liable to
any form of disease except by one of
two ways. The first way is from im
perfect action of the kidneys. The
second way is from careless local treat
ment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad
der, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. It is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or incouvenience mani
fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
usinary passage is often, by mistake
attributed to female weakness or
womb trouble of some sort. The error
is easily made and may be as easily
avoided. Io find out correctly, set
your urine aside for 2-t hour; a
sediment or settling indicates kidney
or bladder trouble. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney
and bladder remedy, is soon real
ized. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. At druggists,
price fifty cents and one dollar.

EDWARD W. SeOTT.
PRESIDENT.
Issues all Forms of Policies
at Lowest Possible Pates
Consistent with Safety.
THE substantial and steady growth of the PROVIDENT SAV
INGS LIFE during the past fifteen years, demonstrates that
ats forms of protection have been appreciated by the public.
Tho Society has boen the pioneer in creating the plans of modern
old-line life -assurance. It maintains-that no one plan of assurance
-will meet the requirements of all men; therefore, erery form of policy
arhich it ifl?ui9s was prepared to supply the needs of some special class
of assurers. All itu plans are peculiarly Provident Savings, anti are
of exceptional merit.
Tho PROVIDENT has, from theoutBet, been a strong
advocate of assurance for thr? purpose of protection,
and haB eliminated, as far as possible, from its poli
cies all speculative features, providing reliable assurance
for the lowest premiums possible. The financial diffi\
cultie* of the past few years have caused business
men to question the wisdom of paying unnecessarily
high prtmiums; or a conditional deposit for an un
certain return.
The act of securing a policy of life assurance is the
performance of a duty From a business standpoint
lifo assurance is more essential than fire assurance
because property may burn, but mau must die.
The policies of the PROVIDENT SAVINGS are
better, clearer in phraseology, and freerjfrom condi
tions and technicalities, than those issued by any
similar institution.
Persons desiring Life Insurance would do well to
consult mo beforu seeking a policy elsewhere, as I
know the Provident tc be a thoroughly reliable old
line company, and issuns as good if not a better Policy
and at more satisfactory rates, than any other com
pany in the land.

rhe Johnston Institute.
rHERE are schools and schools, but there are some reasons why you should
patronize the Johnston Institute :
1st.-Johnston is a healthful location, on the famous "Ridge," which com
prises portions of Aiken, Edgefleld, Lexington and Saluda Counties. It
is absolutely free from malaria. The same diurnal range of temperature
as Santa Barbara, Cal. .
2nd.-Johnston is a moral community with few allurements to vice. No bar
' rooms or vicious company to degrade the students.
8rd.-The Superintendents conduct two boarding halls-Pickens Hall for
' young men and Rebecca Motte Hall for young ladies. In these Halls the
students are under restrictions and give their undivided time to their
studies. , _
th.-The Instituteis conducted ona Military basis. Boys are permitted, but
not required, to wear uniforms. This uniform is cheap, handsome and
durable. Students are taught to obey, as one can never rule well until
bo first learns to obey well.
.td.-Our eourse of study is thorough, practical and progressive. We flt stu
dents for life, as College Diplomas are issued to those who deserve them.
Otb_"We have Speeial Departments offering superior instructions in Book
keeping, Painting and Music. Call and see the character of work done.
Our rooms are open to inspection.
th._-.We have a big school. There is something stimulating and inspiringabout
large schools, because children learn not only from books but by ab
sorption.
8th.-We have eleven teachers, S. M. Martin, John Lake, A. J. Reainy, C. C.
Herbert, Mian A. S. Arnold, Miss Sophie Swearingen, Mrs. L. C.Latimer,
Mis* Sue Sloan, Mrs. S. S. Cobb, Mrs. J. H. White, Mrs. A. J. Reamy. We
will add more if necessary.
9th.-Our School is under Christian influence, but strictly unsectarian. No
narrow denominational lines are drawn.
Oth.-We are giving the best possible education at the least possible cost.
The Institute is the school for the people. Board and tuition from $10
:o S12 per month, according to grade. Provisions taken in payment of
board. Students received at any time. For further information address
