There are great inducements in this school sufficient to make any par ent think long and well before de nying their boy such advantages as can be gained there. This is spe cially applicable to the boys of Edgefield county, who are so near, and the love that Col.

Start Life Right. Start your life right in youth's rosy morning. And you'll lind there's something to live for and love; Yiew not the future with fear and with trembling, Keep your hand on the throttle and ever look above. Foes tray beset your years of en deavor. Reward may be slow-come not at your will; But foes cannot baffle you now and forever ; So start your life rightand you're half up the hill. Start your life right with love aud obeying, Strenghthen your faith in your self and your friends; For the brief span in which we have our existence Hardly begins till we're at the end. Today's regrets cannot help former failures. Yesterday's errors ought not to baffle yo u today; Throw off the worries that trouble and fret you, Be cheerful and bright on life's weary way. Start your life right and you'll have easy -?ailing, Ne'er forget there's something to live for and love; And the soul that is serving, trust ing and trembling Is the one that will bask supreme ly above. And when all of life's toils and worries are ended; Sweet rest will be given to you and to tue; If we have been true to commands that were jiven, We'll cross over the river and rest jndei the tree. -Farm and Ranch. biding faith in the * Blieve cotton is worl >n Exchange in opei Corner Store ^ ill a< mt at 9 cents per pc good intentions to 1 icertainty, I shall cc FOUND: On the day of the sen atorial campaign meeting at Edge field a dark brown coat in the street near Mr. J.

Mr. Editor:- This morning- I am standing upon an elevation, looking down below at the Keowee valley. This is where the Indian would lay low the roebuck and the deer and would angle the mountain trout in this beautiful river of the Keowe, in the long ago. It was along this valley and throughthese gorges and up and down these hills they would settle their desputes of boundary and dominion, and where the red men wooea and won his forest born lover. This morning, September 1st, I am standing at the foot hills of the Blue Ridge mountains, and the sun is coming out of the gates of the east throwing its fire upon the; cloud, its gold upon the trees and its silver upon the waterfalls, look ing up at the same time at the moun tain peaks pointing heavenward. The scene is beautiful, g;and, and it is glorious because it is God's handy work. One standing with me had to exclaim the mountains also declared the glory of God. And then I thought as I was gazing upon these great mountains, (God's sen tinels to the plains) I said who gave us this beautiful world, where every leaf is most artistic in i te out line, where every quiver of limb shakes beauty into the air. Who could study this wonderful world, this outline of mountain and valley and plain; who could meditate on the beautiful waterfalls, the river, the sky and the ck .ids, the morning and evening, the day and the night, i the starlight and the moonlight, who can study this beautiful place without recognizing the fact that it was given by some Almighty lover of the divinely beautiful. It seems a strange thing that man can look out upon the ..rainbow, can.see the morning appear without being irn pres ed deeply at the wonders of the Almighty. Look upon tree, limb, forest, mountain, valley and flower in their wonderful variety and the air laden with their sweet fra granee, and see God therein. The Psalmist loved to look at these things by day and by night, in its calms and in its storms. Ile loved its stars and its water brooks, its fir trees, its radiant sun rise, and its noon days. And the master him self must have found joy among the fields of grain, md by the brookside and in the flowers of the field, and in company with nature's solitude to which he often retired for strength and rest. Can one to stop and think and look at the sun set in its marvelous beauty without a recognition of a wonderful divine hand. And what a heart he must have had for loving, and what a mind he must have for color, what a genius he must have had for crea tion. The giver of this wonderful world, we ought to learn His voice and recognize it. The untutored In dian living in the forest in the ear ly days of this country was a great er artist in his way than are some of the most advanced Christians of 1 to-day. The red man recognized a divine being in the sound of the sea, as the great storm drifted into the shore. Let him who loves na ture, go forth ito the mountain top and there look and read, you who loves the creator, ride upon the ocean waves, and see the mighty billows roll and hear their voice; and we can see God therein.

J. Russell Wright. Seneca, S. C. Farm-to-Table by Parcel Post, j "Why is it that in South Carolina' tbe-farmers and producers have not made use of the parcel post service to improve their connections with the city consumers? A ?ratifying success has been achieved by the new system in New England in supplying a "farm-to table" service, according to the Boston Globe, it having been tested aspeoially by nine Ameriean muni cipalities. The postmaster at Boston re port0 that it has been of great ben efit/to patrons of the office under bi?^?iargi, 907 farmers and truck gardeners having offered to serve city buyers directly. In Lynn, during 10 weeks, about 2,500 parcels of country products were received for delivery, on an average of 250 per week. Some complaints have been made about broken eggs, melted butler and stale fish, but careful .accounts kept by the railway mail officials show that the rate of damage to commodities in transit has been less than one.tenth of one per cent. Improved containers, more knowl edge concerning the art of packing (which the department of agricul ture is d?hgently spreading among shippers) and installation of ice boxes (already be?un in post-offices) will reduce the losses until they be come infinitesimal. Postmaster General Burleson finds that the new service bas help ed to cut the cost of living, so, of courne, it has come to stay.- Co lumbia Record. PAINT BETTER. Better isn't enough; paint beet. A man bought cheap paint; saved 20c or 30 or 40 or ?Oe a gallon, didn't he? Yee, and bought 40 or 50 or 60 or 80 per cent more galbns; how much did he make on his paint? And he paid for painting those gallons-a fair day's work is a gal lon-how much did he make on the labor part of his job? He lost a quarter or third of his money. How long will it last? not his money, the paint? Perhaps half as long as Devoe. How long will his money last, if he buys other stuff as he bought that paint?
