A Stair Carpet Hint
When buying a stair carnet get an
?xtra yard and fold it in at each end.
This extra length will enable you to
shift the carpet sometimes higher,
sometimes lower, and so to get it
worn evenly. If this pr?caution be not
taken the edges on the stairs will be
worn out while the untrodden part re
mains quite fresh and new looking.
A Good Cup of Coffee.
.. The whole secret' of Vienna coffee,
consists In their adding roasted figs
to the coffee. But to ' make an ex
quisite coffee that is pleasant to the
taste, of a beautiful color, strong and
at the same time not exciting to the
nerves, the fig coffee used must be
prepared by yourself for the purpose,
(ts preparation is as simple as it is
cheap. Take a number of dried figs,
cut them across into slices, and divide
the slices into sraail squares. Put
these squares into a saucepan and al
low them to roast slowly on a medium
Gre until they have become thorough
ly dry, being careful to turn them con
stantly over so as not to let them get
burned. After they have cooled down
powder them in a mortar of" a coffee
mill. Keep the powder in a . well
closed tin box in a dry place and add
of lt to the bean coffee about the size
pf a pea to every cup required. ' It
ls advisable to prepare only a small
supply of this powder, on account of
the quick evaporation of the flavor
of the figs. The fresher the powder
the better is the taste of the coffee.
Also the Kean coffee Should be used
well pulverized and it must be soak
ed slowly with bolling water.
How to Sell Small Fruits."
"One look at a cherry should be
sufficient,*' says an expert, "for if the
red ones are a bright color, especially
those that are-shipped from California,
or a glistening yellow tinged with
streaks of red, and, there are no
specks or gummy substances on the
skin, a woman may be pretty sure
; that they are in perfect condition for
the table. Of course, they should be
firm to the touch, but if cherries are
old and over ripe they do not have, as
ia rule,- the fulL roundness nor the
.fresh color ot those that are best to
eat.
"Color alone vis enough to . assure a
buyer that English gooseberries are
good, for if they are decidedly green
and have no species on the surface
they will make good pies, jams and
tarts. When 14iey become red,, how
ever, they are usually soft and not de
sirable for canning or for; pastry.
Huckleberries and blue berries may
be tested in the same way, -for if they
are- not a deep dark blue the sweet
ness of the fruit Is not what it should
be. Of the two the smaller huckle
berries are . better,- that Is, sweeter
than the blueberries. '
"Following the same rule for color,
blackberries should be glistening
black, and without any reddish places,
or brown spots where .the seeds have
withered and they should look fresh
and well developed. Some persons
prefer the long ones, while others say
that ?he round varieties are sweetest.
Raspberries, vwhether black or 'red,
should 4 be rather soft to ..the touch
when.:ripei; T)ut should be bright in
Color, round and full, without specks
of h?rd, knotty seeds on them. Straw
berries can be readily told by a look,
for if they are not fresh and In good
condition . they , immediately become
wilted and,; mushy in appearance.
When good for table use they should
be a bright red shade, well developed
and firm to the touch. ." A streak of yel
low about the end in the Ganley berry
does not indicate that, it is not ripe,
but rather that it is in just the right
.condition for eating." ;
Recipes.
.Turkey Croquettes.-To a pint of
minced turkey add a fourth of a cup
ful of . bread crumbs, two eggs and
sufficient gravy to moisten all. Season
to taste - and mix- well. Flour the

John S. Wilson Elected Judge.
Solicitor John S. Wilson of Claren
don county, was elected judge of the
third judicial circuit over Represen
tative T. B. Frasier of Sumter hy a
vote of S4. lo 76. The contest was. an
.interesting one. both men being
strong members of the bar. aud both
having recognized ability. The elec
tion was conducted as quietly and as
quickly as possible, little time being
lost, in the nominations, although de
served tributes were paid to both of
the men whose ' names had been
brought forward.
The Senate and house convened in
joint assembly at noon and was pre
sided over by lieut. Gov. McLeod.
As soon as the purpose of the assem
bly were announced Senator'Clifton
nominated Hon. T. B. Fraser of Sum
ter, which was seconded by Messrs.
Hemphill, Nash, Harley, j Frost
Scragg and others.
Senator LeGraude. Walker." nomin
ated Hon. John S. Wilson pf Claren
don, which was seconded, by Messrs.
Hardin, Wells^ Doar. Bryan and oth
ers.
Other Elections.
There was no opposition to the re
election of Capt. D. J. Griffith, who
has served several years as superin
tendent of the State penitentiary, and
his re-election is a compliment to his
suecessful administration.
For penitentiary directors there
wehe five nominees for thc three
vacancies caused by the expiration
of the terms of Messrs. A. K. Sau
ders, John Mobley and W. ?D. Kir
by. All three were nominated for re
election and in addition Messrs; J.
W. King aud Jasper W. Smith were
also placed in nomination. The vote
was as follows.; Moblev, 142; Smith,
107; Sanders. 105: Kirby, 72. and
King 66. The first three mentioned
were elected on the first ballot.
For trustees of the State colored
college (o succeed Representative A.
G. Brice, of Chester, resigned, Sena
tor Hardin nominated Mr. G. B.
While of Chester and Mr. Epting
nominated Mr. D. R. Riser of Orange
burg. Mr. White was elected, re
ceiving 73 votes to Mr. Riser's 43.
The joint assembly then elected
Benjamin R. Tillman United States
senator for a term of six years, be
ginning March 4, 1907.
Dispensary Loses.
The Senate on Friday gave another
vicious jab to the dispensary system
by adopting the resolution of Sena
tor Smith to abolish the State dis
pensary. The vote was 19 to 16, with
two anti-dispensary absentees pair
ed. Senators Hough and Johnson
who were also absent, are known dis
pensary men. All of which shows
a positive majority of one. :
The vote appears to point to Hie
doom of the State dispensary sys
tem, and tlie anti-dispensary people
are juibilant.
The original Smith resolution car
ried a provision calling upon the joint
judiciary committees lo report a
bill for a substitute for the State
dispensary system, but this was
amended so as to require these com
mittees lo report a bill providing for
local option between county dispen
saries ?Hui county prohibition, which
is the provision of the Carey-Cot li
ra iii bill, thc anti-dispensary cohort?'
measure pending in the House and
which that branch will pass by over
10 majority.
No Cotton Bucket Shops.
By a 2 to 1 vote the senate passed
Xhe Carlisle-Saiuiars bill outlawing
bucket shops in this State. Senator
Weston tried to secure the passage
of a substitute and Senator Sinkler
made an effort to get in an amend
ment so as to have the law in effect
July 1, not to impare existing licen
ses, but both were voted down by
large majorities.
There was an interesting skirmish
toward thc close of the Senate ses
sion over Senator Smith's resolution
cal Hug for the abolishment of the
S?:;?e dispensary. Senator Williams
moved l"o amend so as to have Ute
judiciary committees draft a bill, to
abolish lite dispensary and bring a
hill providing for local option.
Lien Law Discussed.
The House, spent practically all of
?ts session debating thc bill of Mr.
Richards to repeal that portion of
the lien law which provides for the
croppeis making liens to merchants
for supplies. The friends of the bill
took the position that a repeal was
neceesary in order to releive the un
satisfactory condition as to negro
labor on the farm.
With the Eacbards bill passed, the
cropper ia ia toe hands of the land
lord, * Hw to anotiw Mw void n>

ord. Finally the bill passed,'78 to,
J2. The lien law in South Carolina
!s 41 years old, and it has wrought
great damage against the agricultur
al interests, lien merchants at every
cross roads growing fat by exorbi
tant charges. It was repealed in De
cember, 1881, but was promptly re
enacted at a special session held the
following month.

What "Hamir" Meant."
Though the Scottish guard of
France had long lost its national char
acter, it jealous1./ retained until the
crash of 1789 all its curious old priv
ileges, which, though they led to con
stant wrangles with other regiments,
had been duly allowed by Louis XIV.
He was actually obliged to intervene
at his own wedding to compose a dis
pute as to the precedence of the Scot?
guards and the Cent gentilshommes.
"Proud as a Scotchman" was an old
proverb in France, and their succes
sors-in the bodyguard did their best
to Justify it. But the most, curious
survivalj long after a word of Scotch
had been heard in the corps, was the
practice of answering "hamir" (a cor
ruption ior "I am here") when the
roll 'was called,, which was religious
ly maintalne-ii, at all events, down to
the revolution.-Macmillan's Maga

Aro said often to bo buried six feet under

their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid
ney disease, another from nervous pros
tration, another with pain herc and there,
and in this way they present alike-to
themselves and their easy-going or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to bc such, prescribes
his pilla and potions. In reality, they aro
all only aymptoms caused by some uterino

"I enlisted in the Corps of Engineers aa
a telegraph operator, and, while stationed
iu the Philippines, I became subject to the
'Dobie Itch,' as the natives call it. In
this disease small, white, itching pimples
form under the skin, generally between the
toes, oil the limbs, between -the lingers
and under the arms. I never knew of a
case originating outside the Philippine
Islands, but have known of many cases
where it aas returned in this country and
invariably at the same time of the year
as lae original attack. The cause, eo far
as I could learn, was some tropical parasite
or germ peculiar co that region.
"I got so bad that I was confined to my
quarters a week at a time. The Army
Surgeons applied some carbolic solution,
and it would disappear for a time, when it
would break out again. I was discharged
from the Engineers by reason of disability
contracted in line of duty, and when I
had the trouble again, my druggist,: Mr.
