I wish I could make the girl who flirts in the street see herself as others see her. When she makes eyes at a man he, of course, returns the compliment (?) with interest. It does not mean that he thinks her pretty or attractive; it simply means that he thinkB "if this girl does not respect herself, why should I respect hei?"- Men always take'a girl at her own estimate. If she is self-respecting, dignified and lady like they will treat her accordingly. If she is forward, bold-looking and ready to meet familiarity half way, they will meet her on her own ground. They will be free and easy and hail fellow well met with her, but they won't care to introduce her to their sisters,*' and they will never fall in love with her. Girls often complain that they can't walk down the street without being spoken to by some men. As a rule, it is entirely a girl's own fault if she is spoken to or insulted in any way. If she walks straight ahead, looking aDd behaving as a modest, ladylike girl should, she will be comparatively free from annoyance. Men know perfectly well the girls to whom they may speak. Another girl who is minding her own business may walk unmolested from one end of the city to the other. Ever since the world began woman has occupied the enviable position of being the one sought after. Man has placed her on a pedestal and has been content to worship her and work for her and woo her. Just as long as she keeps her womanliness she will keep her place on the pedestal. When she, of her own accord, climbs down, making herself easy of conquest and, therefore, less desirable, she is in danger of losing her place on the pedestal for good and all. The girl who flirts and has men following her and speaking to her is laboring under the mistaken idea that she is receiving attention. Well, so she is; but it is attention of a most objectionable sort and is dangerously near insult. I will come later, and, if you like, tell a story about a husband and wife. The Tramp. A "Wonderful Saving. The largest Methodist church in Georgia, used 32 gallons of L. & M. mixed with 24 gallons of oil, thus making paint cost about $1.20 per gallon They calculated to use 100 gallons of paint. Saved about $80.00 and also get a big donation of L. & M. Dealers gladly sell L. & M., because their customers call for it, and say they used it 12, 14 and even 30 years ago. Don't pay $ 1.50 a gallon for linseed oil, which yen do in ready.for-use paint. .Bay oil iresii irom tne oarrei at t>u cenis per gull on, and mix it with L, & M. paint, It makes paint cost about $1.20 per gallon. Sold by W. P. Roof. Now is the Time to Sow Peas. Let farmers who have set aside 12 to 15 acres to the horse for cotton just figure a little. Iq this section it will cost five to six cents a pound to make the cotton. Let these cotton men take about four or five acres of their cotton land and sow a bushel of clay or unknown peas to the acre. If the land would make 700 pounds of seed cotton to the acre it would make a ton and a half of pea vine hay. At 8 cents a pound the cotton and seed would bring $20 90. Pea vine hay sells from the wagon at 90 cents a hundred. The ton and a half of hay would bring $27 and the cost would not be half as much as making the cotton crop. The land would be ready for the early seeding to sow wheat or oats. That is the way to reduce the cotton acreage so as to 1905 SPRING Our Buyer is always in seal suit the wants oi Dods trade, and ample cash enables ns to gi\ nd everything kept in a First Class Store t!

Tben when forage, corn, wheat and oats were abundant the fowls, hogs cattle would soon be added aDd farmers would be able "to live at home and board at the same place.? Charles Petty, in Progressive Farmer Protest Against Bate Reduction New York News Bureau. Atlanta, Ga.?The recent proposition of J. Pope Brown, chairman of the Georgia Railroad Commission, to reduce the passenger rate in Georgia from three to two cents per mile was protested' against by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the Order of Railway Conductors, and unions of the blacksmiths, machinists and telegraphers, boiler-makers, railway train men, carpenters and tinners, clerks and car men. These organizations employed an attorney especially to represent them, who urged that such a reduction would work against the prosperity of the State and lead to a reduction in the number of railroad employees as well as of their wages. The Travelers' Protective Association also protested that a reduction as proposed would result in fewer trains and poorer service. ?If the Baby is Cutting Teeth, Be sure and use that old and welltried remedy, Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, for children teething.

Edgefield Advertiser, May 24. Oar town was horror stricken by the intelligence of the very tragic death of Mr. Jeter W. Crim, on Thursday last. This good man?we say good man because be was one of the best citizens of the town of Johnston?had been plowing all day and about sundown rode home as usual, Bitting sideways upon his horse. The animal gave a sudden bound or leap which caused Mr. Crim to fall, and becoming entangled in the plow g6ar be was dragged for a quarter of a mile, witb tbe borse going at a rapid gate. Tbe frightened animal was stopped near Mr. Crim's house and tbe unfortunate man was rescued or disentangled but be had been so seriously injured tbat he died within a half an hour, never regaining consciousness. Tbe deceased was a Confederate veteran and an active member of tbe Johnston Baptist church. He was also tba senior member of tbe mercantile firm of Crim & Son. J A wieareu s or avuuu.

The crops are badly "in the grass," labor is scarce and high priced, and a number of farmers say they will be unable to "clean1' their cotton, and some is being plowed up and corn planted in its stead. ? o * The barn and stables, with three horses and 1,500 bushels of corn, belonging to D.
