A Queen Who Sells Butter.
Queen Wilhelmina of Holland has
gone iDto the dairy business and is
now making money by selling milk
and butter. Her first step in this
direction was when she induced her
husband, Prince Henry, to buy several
cows, which were placed on the
rich lands surrounding th9 castle of
The cows orosnered exceeding

ly, and the queen was so well pleased
with the success of the experiment
that she instructed the managers
of her estates to make a tour of
the stock farms and purchase the
be6t animals that could be obtained
in Holland. Th,.: they did and sent
the herd to the castle of Loo.
A dairy was established in connection
with the royal castle, and now
butter and milk are sold in large
quantities from the queen's establish
ment. She herself devotes considerable
time to directing and inspecting
the work of the dairy, and it has become
her most obsorbing hobby.

Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy.
Is everywhere recognized as the
one remedy that can always be depended
upon and that is pleasant to
take. It is especially valuable for
summer diarrhoea, in children and is
undoubtedly the means of saving the
lives of a great many children each
year. For sale by The Kaufmann

Crua 2Tot Present.
CbarleetoD, S. C, June 17.?Dr.
W. D. Crum, Charleston's much
talked of negro collector, was called
* * i i_ i-:
on 10 piay nost in ma uuicitu unpawn* j >
for the first time since he has been
in office. That is to say, he was
called on, but was not present to receive
his and the nation's guests.
The German cruiser Gazelle is
here. Her commander, Count Ton
Oriola, was paying official visits yesterday.
In person he called on Mayor
Smythe and he sent Captain Turk of
his sl8ff down to the cnstom house
to call on the Collector. Dr. Ci um
was not in andtUaptain Turk left his
card.
No one knows whether or not Captain
Turk knew that Dr. Crum would
not be in at the particular hour of bis
visit. Dr. Crum will return the visit
at an early date.
Ordinarily the Collector of the
Port would be a personage at the
functions being given in honor of the
German naval officers, but it is not
probable that Dr. Crum will be a
feature of any of the festivities.
Worst of All Experiences.
Can anything be worse than to
feel that every minute will be your
last? Such was the experience of
Mrs. S. H. Newson, Decatur, Ala.
"For three years" she writes, "I endured
insufferable pain from indigestion,
stomach and bowel trouble.
Death seemed inevitable when doctors
and all remedies failed. At
length I was induced to try Electric
Bitters and the result was miraculous.
I improved at once and now
Tm completely recovered." For
Liver, Kidney, Stomach and Bowel
troubles Electric Bitters is the only
jnedicine. Only 50c. It's guaranteed

The State Summer School for
Teachers' convened at White Stone
Springs on June 18:h, and will continue
daily for about a month. There
is quite a large attendance of the
progressive teachers cf the State
present, and the probability is that
this number will be largely swelled

Why Many Young Men Fail.
It is the fault and the cause of the
failure of so many bright, capable
young m6n that, being put into a certain
workday rut, they make no effort
to climb or even crawl out of it; they
do not seek the work that is not routine
and go beyond the terms of the
bond in search of additional labor in
order to attract the approving notice
of their employers. They do not go
to their posts before nor remain at
them after the fixed hour. They are
content to do enough, and no more
than enough, to earn their hire. The
life of the average clerk is generally
genteel, easy, cleanly; he need not soil
his hands nor his clothes, and his
ambition is satisfied with these pleas
ant conditions.

Will Never be Encwa.
Heppner, Ore, June 17 ?The
work of clearing the streets of great
piles of wreckage, which were lodged
in the town by Sunday's flood, was
commenced in earnest today.
Bodies are being recovered almost
every hour and tonight the most accurate
estimate of the number of
dead is 200
The exact number of victims ^will
probably never be known, as many
have been waebed miles down tbe
creek and covered by huge accumulations
of drift and sand. Scores of
men are searching tbe creek bottoms
for bodies of relatives and friends
who are missing, but the undertaking
is a stupendous one, as bodies
have been found more than thirty
miles from here.
Another Consolidation.
New York.?Perhaps nothing more
suitable could occur in the uniting
of publications, which style of concentration
has rapidly grown in popularity,
than the bringing together
of the Ledger Monthly, founded by
Robert Bonner, in 1843, a publication
devoted alike to the general
field and to home matters. The
Household, preeminently a home publication,
established at Brattleboro,
Yt., in 1S68, and the musical journal,
Ev'ry Month, which has rapidly
grown in favor sihce its first issue
that appeared in 4S62. This uniting
of diversified interests which, however,
all centered in the home, naturally
at once establishes The Housebold
Ledger upon a high plane in
the home field

The Davis Monument.
Richmond, Va, June 16?It now
appears that the Jefferson Davis i
m - - * i i j I
Monument Association, Desiues inviting
Sculptor E. V. Valentine and
| Architect W. C. Noland to submit a
design for the memorial to the president
of the Confederacy, have determined
to limit the expenditures to
$60,000, although' several thousand
dollars will remain in the treasury
after this outlay.
Much secrecy is maintained in regard
to the memorial plans, but it is
pretty generally understood that the
design will embody a collonade statue
of Davis and several allegorical figures.
Sentiment favors the corner of
Twelfth and Broad streets as a site
for the monument, but this has not
vet been determined. Indeed much
?
yet remains to be done.
The design submitted must be
passed upon at a meeting of the
monument association to be held
November 10 in Charleston. If it is
then accepted it will in turn be submitted
to the convention of the Daughters
of the Confederacy in Charleston,
November 11. No more money
will be asked by the ladies, and what
remains in the treasury after paying
out $60,000 will be reserved for incidental
expenses.
A Serious Mistake.

piles, bump, bruises, eczema and all

Business on a Bock.
If you toot your little tooter and
then lay aside your hern, there's not
a soul in ten short days will know that
you were born. The maa who gathers
pumpkins is the man who plows
all day, and the man who keeps it
humping is the one who makes it
pay. The man who advertises with
a short, a sudden jerk, is the one who
blames the editor because it doesn't
work. They who get the business
take a long and steady pul and keep
the local paper from year to year
quite full. He plans his advertisements
in a careful, thoughtful way
and keeps forever at it until he makes
it pay. He has faith in all the future
nan TpifViol-ftnH A ftltddpn shock, and
like the man of Scriptnre, has his
business on a rock.
10,000 Packages of Seed.
Ten thousand packages of seed
have been received from the Department
of Agriculture by Congressman i
J. T. Johnson, says the Spartanburg
Journal, to be distributed among the
j farmers and others of this section j
who lost so heavily by the recent I
floods. The seed are for garden purposes
and include corn peas, etc.
They will bs distributed from the j
office of JohnsOQ Sc Nash in Spartan- j
burg. Accompanying the shipment j
of seed was an appropriate letter of
sympathy from Secretary Wilson
over the loss occasioned by the flood.

Reflections of a Bachelor.
A woman has ideals till she gets
married: a man after he gets married.
The average man saves money one
place so as to be p.ble to put it where
he is squandering it somewhere
el*e.
It takes a woman to convince herself
that what is a scandal for some
other women to do is only indiscretion
when she does it.
A bore gets mighty interesting all
of a sudden when he begins to talk
to you about yourself.
A woman can despise a man for
his weekness, and yet love him for
the suffering they bring him.
Generally a woman is interested
in a man when she pretends, if he is
around, to be interested in some other
man.

you much good. Kodol Dyspepsia

headache, constipation, bad
breath, sour risings, rifting, indigestion,

Have a Few Votes.
Southern Congressmen continue
giving the votes of the South to their
favorite candidates for President. Not
long ago Hon. John Wesley Gaines
of Tennessee presented the entire
vote of the South to Judge Parker
with no more feeling of prodigality
than if he had been handing him a
chirquepiD. Now comes Congressman
Slayden of Texas aDd hands
Gorman the vote of the big state,
Slayden represents a Western district,
where the sheep men rule and
clamor for a protective tariff ?Memphis
Commercial Appeal.
The Trial Should be-Made.
Let a million negroes be so distributed
around in the towns of Massachusetts
as to constitute in about
half of them a majority of the population.
Give them the right to vote
without waiting for them to learn to
read their ballots: open the door cf
hope to there: put them in public
office; let them have chrage of public
affairs in proportion to their numerical
preponderance: give them social
equality; let them swarm on the
street and railroad cars and in the
hotels and restaurants: let them levy
and disburse taxes, although they
have no property: let them take
charge of the public schools, although
they cannot read?in short, let them
do in Massachusetts just as Massachusetts
wants them to do in the
South. And then let us see what
our New England friends will think
of race prejudice?Baltimore Sun.
