The Republicans swept the country
in tbe last election, tbongb by reduced
majorities. The defeat of the
Democratic party is attributable
solely to the want of a settled policy
upon National questions. Oar leaders
certainly have tbe experience but
are sadly wanting in wisdom. There
is no hope for ^ Democratic victory
* no til the Democratic party relegates
to the rear the political dead beats
who have so often carried the party
to defeat bring forward men more in
harmony and sympathy with the
spirit of the times.

We are glad to announce that Hon.
A. Frank Lever has been reelected to
Congress by an overwhelming majority.
This young statesman has accomplished
more practical results for
the convenience and happiness of his
eonstitnency than all of the balance
of the South Carolina delegation put
together, and as proof of this claim
we have only to point to a single class
of bis effective work, viz the establishment
of so large a number of free
rural delivery routes in his district

The north and east consumes our
beef, pork and mutton, they therefore

by the high prices of these

Republicans to reduce the price of
these articles of diet, and rob the

The ud wisdom of the Columbia
State in unnessarily prolonging the
controversy over the unfortunate and
regrettable conflict between the Clemson
students and the South Carolina
boys, has accomplished nothing but
harm. It is very probable that the
late Fair is the last one that Clemson
will permit its students to attend as
a body.
Congressman Latimer's stroke of
polioy in bringing down South those
Republican statesmen so that they
could see the negro as he really is,
\ has done more to effectually bury the
nefarious "Crumpacker Idea" than
all the speeches in Congress by
Southern Democrats could possibly j
have accomplished.
The principles of Democracy are
eternal because they are founded on
right and justice. Politicians may
for a time carry them to defeat to j
further their own personal and selfish j
purposes, but like truth crushed to !
the earth, they will rise again.
Has McLaurin entirely retired from j
the political arena, or is he husband* i
ing bis strength to tackle Tillman in
1906? is a question that is giving the
South Carolina politician much concern.

The Democratic pari; is tu be congratulated
by the retirement of
Jimmie Jones, of Arkansas. Now if
it will unload itself of other dead
weighte its chances of winning a bril
liant victory will be bright.
The Greatest Values.
Only a few years ago the Globe
Dry Goods Company started business
in Columbia on a comparatively
small capital, but large business experience
and indomitable pluck and
energy until today the manager baa
succeeded in buiidiog up a large
wholesale and retail business second
to none in the city.
Mr. Monckton has made wonderful
additions to his store rooms in order
to meet the demands of his large
and increasing trade. He now util
izes the upper and lower floors as
well as the cellar, of his commodious
stores and the capacity of his floor
room is equal to a solid block, al1 of
which are filled to overflowing with
all the new novelties in dry goods,
notions, clothing and millinery embracing
all that is needed in wearing
l apparel for man, woman and child,
which he is offering cheaper than the
cheapest at retail and obeaper still at
wholesale. In his stores the consumer
can And first class goods at
second class prices and in his whole
sale department the country merchant
can find a well selected stock
from which to fill bis shelves at such
low prices as will enable him to sell
cheap and make a good profit. The
friends of Mr. Simon P. Taylor will
find him in the clothing department
and other polite and accommodating
clerks are always ready to show customers
the greatest values in the
city.

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.
In planting the orchard care should
be taken to allow each tree plenty of
room.
A layer of charcoal in the bottom of a
flower bed is very beneficial in keeping
the soil fresh.
In plowing in the orchard always
turn the furrow toward the tree, and
be careful not to injure the fine, fibrous
roots.
The life of an apple tree is often
shortened because it grows in a poor,
exhausted soil or one not properly
drained.
When ill or ailing, handle the flowers
little or wear gloves. Delicate plants
are sensitive to human magnetism,
good or bad.
xue roots 01 tne strawuerry vutm
reach out five feet from the main
stem; hence the plants should not be
set too thickly.
An apple or cherry tree fs much
more valuable if it shoots out low.
Trim from the top. as this will cause
the lower branches to grow out.
Land that has been too rough for
plowing may yet be sufficiently fertile
to grow fruit trees and is better than
land that has been exhausted by crop- ,
Ping.
Too Gorgreonii Boole*.
The author of "Elizabeth and Her
German Garden," writing on the "Giving
of Books" In the Century, says:
Gifts of books addressed solely to
the spirit should never be editions de
luxe. Of what use is a book to me.
however mnch 1 may want to read it,
if it is so gorgeous that it must not be
taken auywhere where rain might fall
on it. or where it might get muddy, or
where a heedless gnat, caught by the
quick turning of a leaf, might leave its
legs in the pages, angering the owner
of the (letiled book, who does not want
its legs, almost as much as it is itself
angered by having to go on being a
gnat without themV 1 can no more
take an overgorgeous book to my
heart than 1 can fold my child in my
arms when it is dressed for a party.

THE FIRST WOMAN.
An Old Eastern Legend That Tells
How She "Was Created.
The last section "Of a Finger of the
Moon Reddened by the Setting Sun" in
the Sanscrit work called the "Surging
of the Ocean of Time" contains a legend
concerning woman's creation which is
commonly credited throughout India,
and which runs somewhat as follows:
At the beginning of time, Twashtri, the
Vulcan of Hindoo mythology, created
the world. But when he wished to
create a woman he found he had employed
all his materials in the creation
of man. There did not remain one
solid element. Then Twashtri, perplexed,
fell into a profound meditation.
He roused himself to do as follows:
He took the lightness of the leaf and
the glance of the fawn, the gayety of
oim'c r-oT'a onfl tofirc nf +lif> mist
tlio OUU a iuj U v/*. VMW
the inconstancy of the wind, and the
timidity of the hare, the vanity of the
peacock and the softness of the down
on the throat of the swallow, the
harshness of the diamond, the sweet
flavor of honey, the cruelty of the tiger,
the warmth of fire, the chill of snow,
the chatter of the jay and the cooing
of the turtle dove. He melted all this
and formed a woman. Then he made
a present of her to man. Eight days
later the man came to Twashtri and
said:
"My lord, the creature you gave me
poisons my existence. She chatters
without rest, she takes all my time,
she laments for nothing at all and is always
ill." And Twashtri received the
woman again. But eight days later the
man came again to the god and said:
"My lord, njy life is very solitary
since I returned this creature. I remember
she danced before my singing.
I recall how she glanced at me from
the corner of her eye, that she played
with me, clung to me." And Twashtri
returned the woman to him. Three
days only passed and Twashtri saw the
man coming to him again.
"My lord," said he, "I do not understand
exactly how, but I'm sure the
woman causes me more annoyance
than pleasure. I beg of you relieve me
of her."
But Twashtri cried, "Go your way
and do your best!"
And the man cried, "I cannot live
with her!"
"Neither can you live without her,"
replied Twashtri.
And the man went sorrowfully away,
murmuring, "Woe is me; I can neither
live \vith her nor without her."?Collier's
Weekly.
Sure of Applause.
That the theatrical claque is. not confined
to playhouses was demonstrated
beyond all shadow of doubt to the
teacher who was drilling the pupils for
the exercises in one of the public
schools.
The unresponsive bit of femininity
over whom the amateur "coach" worked
rejoiced in the name of Sarah.
When Sarah began to talk, all her
vocal organs took joyful holiday and
retired in favor of her nose. In vain
thp fpneher hecrtred and implored.
Sarah still clung to her monotone.
Then the teacher threatened.
"Sarah." she said, "if you don't try
to do better you will fail utterly, and
then how will you feel?"
"Oh, they'll applaud me, Miss
Brown." returned Sarah easily. "My
mother is goin' to give my little brother
Andy 10 cents, and if he don't begin
clappin' the minute I sit down he's
goin' to be strapped within an inch of
his life."?New York Times.
A Measure of Distance.
A northern sportsman went alligator
hunting in Florida, and, as often happens
with the uninitiated, he got lost.
It was near night, and he was at a loss
what to do. Presently he met a man
riding a cow, says the Indianapolis
Journal.
"Can you tell me how far it is to
Miami?'
"Waal, I reckon it's about two
whoops," the man answered.
"Two?what?"

his veracity, for he looked
quest ion ingly at the palmettos and
prickly pears beside the path, then began
to scratch his head.
"P'r'aps hit may be a srnitch furder,"
he admitted, "but I Mow hit ain't
morn' two whoops an' a holler."
A Lone Felt Want.
"I have here," said the long haired
theorist as he was ushered into the
presence of the railway magnate,
"plans for a device that will warn the
engineer when any one is crossing the
track."
"Can't use it," replied the busy official.
"What we want is something
that will warn the person who is crossing
the track when the engineer happens
along that way."?Chicago News.

From a Catholic institution in Central
Ohio comes the following recommend
from the Sister Superior.
" Some years ago a friend of our institution
recommended to us Dr. Hartman's
Peruna as an excellent remedy for the
influenza of which we then had several
cases which treatened to be of a serious
character.
" "We began to use it and experienced
such wonderful.results that since then
Peruna has become our favorite medicine
for influenza, catarrh, cold, cough
and bronchitis."
