There are some few things that are necessary to characterize a good teaoher. First, his oharaotor must be above reproaob, with that high standard of integrity and truthful ness that every teacher aud parent must take as a guido and practice. Ile must have sympathy, knowledge, enthusiasm aud oommon sense. As a test of qualification his charaoter must stan ' first. Upright in all businef^ nBi.otions, a close compli ance \ .i tho terms of all contracts, freedom from all offences against morality, a close adherence to the potent iniiuenco of examplo, aud a high grade of culture that can coun tenance nothing base or low-these are some of tho qualities that school boards cannot scrutinize too olosely when seeking out a proper person to plaoe in authority.as a toucher. Above all, the teacher must tho roughly understand the subject to bo taught and be endowed with talent and magnetism in order to improvo the talents and buoy up the ambi tions of his pupils. Lacking in these, his efforts must prove a failure. Ile mu?t bo a man of wide and accurato scholarship, which must bo sufficient to meet all tho requirements of the school, though it should not be ob tained for tho occasion through tho stuffing process. Thc teacher should not bo an omnivorous reader of everything that falls in his way but ho should bo an active reader of good book?. Too many teachers skim tho surface, but do not divo deep enough in search of the hidden treasures which Ho in deeper water. Ile should Btndy each topic well before he presents it to the class, so that his pupils may drink from a fresh fountain rather than a stagnant pool. Ile should lie a student as well as a teacher and pursue a chosen line of reading and investigation for his own benefit. The best teacher is tho one whoso whole soul is in the work and his sole aim to obtain and impart sound knowledge. Ile should bo a closo observer of the general environments thrown around his school. Ile must know what he is teaching, and not teach his opinions as a truth. His opinions are but mental pictures ex pressing a supposition. The teacher should never como to tho end of his resources. To avoid this lie should be a reader of educa tional literature and a student of whatever branch lie intends to teach. He should lie able to present every recitation in such a manner that the pupil may got the best possible re sults. A man without a heart has no business in the school room. One of the strongest elements in the life; of the true teacher is sympathy. It is not a part of the teacher's work to repress the self-activity of the child, but his duty lies rather in guiding it so that it may become a prominent factor in his life. The heart of the little child heeds to kind words and deeds as the strings of the violin to tho fingers of the skilled player. Patience and firmness, working hand in hand, with no show of tyrannical rule, with no slackness in preserving good order, with deep interest in whatever promotes the welfare and general good of the child at school as well as at home, are some of thc necessary require ments of tho teacher who achieves success. A good, clever boy can gather a few rays of light from any fool with knowledge, but it requires a skilled workman to be able to teach. It is a very easy thing to keep school, but it is a great and noble thing to he a true teacher. Jonathan Old Style. Clemson College has opened with 570 students. No moro can bo re ceived. Mental Strain Affected Gen eral Health. Doctor's Doses Weak ened Stomach. Dr. Miles' Nervine Cured Me. Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine brings rest and sweet sleep to the tired brain worn out with the cares and anxieties of the sick room. Read the following: "I have always been healthy with the ex ception of a touch of rheumatism since my a^e came on, np to thc time of my husband's last illness some years ago. I assisted in nursing my husband for neatly three months when ne departed this ?lie sud the mental strain I think caused my trouble. Aside from extreme nervousness my trouble com menced with sore thioat and neuralgia. My physician gave me purgative doses which weakened me very much and my stomach for a time seemed inactive. Mental strain and the dormant condition of my stomach soon told upon my general health. I had little appetite and was soon forced to st:"' In '..cd a greater part ot thc time. Within a week after the time I began taking Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine and Tonic I was up about the house. I continued their use until completely cured. My faith in Dr. Miles' Remedies has been strengthened by experience of other people, our daughter hav ing used Restorative Nervine with splendid results in a case of para ysis and a friend to whom I sent a box of the Anti Pain Pills re ports that she has been completely cured of neuralgia by their use.

There have already been a uumber of complaints that the game law is being violated, says the Vorkville Enquirer. It is said that the sum mer bas been very propitious to the raising of partridges and the fields are full of young birds which, in som? localities, are meeting with wholesale destruction at the hands of pot bunters. In view of this fact it might bo well for the sports men who love sport for its own sake to in come familiar with the game laws so that they oan prosecute pot hunters and stop the extermination of fledglings. The following is a digost of tho game law of 1902 : Non-residents are required to pay a license of $25 to the county treas urer of the oounty where the visitor may be for the privilege of hunting in the State. Not obtaining said license before hunting or shooting shall be deemed guil'v of misde meanor and on eonviotion fined not moro than $50. This act does not apply to persons who kill gamo on their own land. It is unlawful to kill dcor or to worry them with dogs between tho first day of February and the first day of Septomber, except in tho counties of Clarendon, Georgotown, Colleton, Williamsburg, Marlboro, Kershaw, Ilorry, Darlington, Mariou and Berkoley, in whioh counties it shall not bo lawful between tho first day of February and the first day of August. Fire-hunting is prohibited. lt shall not be lawful between the first day of April and tho first day of Novembor to kill any wild turkoy, partridge, quail, woodoook or pheas ant ; or between tho first day of March and tho first day of August any dove ; or, at any* timo during tho year to fire-light any of the birds named. It shall not bo lawful for any per son, excopt upon his own land or upon tho lands of another with the consent of thc owner thereof, to net or trap a partridge, and it shall be unlawful for any person to soil, offer for sale, or ship or export for sale, any partridge, or quail, or doer, or wild turkeys for the spaoo of five years from thc approval of this act ; provided, that nothing in this act shall prevent tho importation for sale of any partridge or quail. Any person violating this soction shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall bo punished by a fine of not exceeding $30, or by im prisonment in the county jail for a term not exceeding 30 days.

Tho Negro and tho Electric Whip. A Georgia mail carrier has invented an electric whip which, according to Machinery, presents considerable novelty. Thc mail carrier drives a wagon with doors that could be closed in rain. In stormy weather he natu rally disliked to open one of the doors in order to reach out and apply tho lash to the horse, which, being an intelligent animal, naturally took advantage of the situation and al ways lagged in rainy weather. To overcome this propensity the Georgia Edison attached a pair of copper plates under the harness saddle and connected them by a wire to a hand operated dynamo in the wagon. When thc steed began to jog up and down, without making much advance, it was time to turn the dynamo crank, which gave the horse a very evident wish to get over the ground more rapidly, and almost any desired speed oould he obtained, according to tho number of rotations per minute given the dynamo armature. An appara tus is now contemplated, says the Atlanta Constitution, which paper has the distinction of first telling about this invention, for use on plows, whereby both the mule and plow hand shall bo automatically shocked every few minnies. It is believed that such an attachment would find a tremendous sale all over the South, as by its uso farmers could bo very sure that no darkey would go to sleep between the plow handles. Of Courso Not. A judge of ono of thc United States Cironit Courts has a five-year old niece of whom ho is very proud. A few days ago she carno to him and said w'th a very serious air : "Uncle, there is a question about law I want to ask you." "Well, dear, what ?sit?" patiently inquired the judge? "Uncle, if n man had a peacock and it went into another man's yard and laid an egg, who would tho ogg belong to i" Tho judge smiled indulgently and replied : "Why, the egg would bolong to tho man who owned tho peacock, but he could be prosecuted for tres passing if ho went on tho other's property to get it." Tho child scorned. very much in terested in tho explanation, and then observed innocently : "Undo, dM it over occur to you that a peacock couldn't lay an ogg?" -New York Times. Kev. Sidi B.

"Step lively 1" bawled tbe con ductor as the crow tl started to board his oar. ?'Step lively, th oro?" Tho portly father climbed, whees* irjg, aboard, carrying a small and chubby boy. Next came a little bright eyed girl of six, perhaps, while the mother climbed on last oar? rying th? baby. Thero were seats for tho father, tho mother, the small boy and baby -tho last two on their parents' knees-hut tho little girl had to stand. "Meroy on us, Hester !" said the mother. "What are you hopping about that way for ?" The little girl was dinging to the seat ahead and was dancing exoitedly, hopping on one foot and then the other as fast as she could. "Why, mamma," she said, still eyeing the stern conduotor, "I'm stepping livoly 1" Even the conductor smiled.-New York Press. Notice to Delinquents.

Not a Clear Title. The word "furlough" ooourrod in a roading lesson of a primary grado in ono of tho public sohools, says tho Philadelphia Ledger. Thc teacher asked if any boy or girl knew thc moaning of tho word. One small hand was raised and shaken vigorously in tho eagerness of tho urchin to display his knowl edge. When ho received permission to speak ho rose and with tho great est assurance said : "Furlough means a mule." Not a whit disturbed at teacher's "Oh, no, it doesn't,' small boy conlidontly answered : "I have thc book at home that says so." Then tho teachor told him he might bring tho book to school and show it to hor. Thc next morning ho came armed with thc book, and triumphantly showed her thc picture of an Ameri can soldier astride a mule, under which was printed, "Going homo on his furlough."

Your breakfast is growing cold." Tho boy kept right on, not saying anything. Then his Pa puts his head in thc stairway, and says he : ?Bill !" "Coming, sir !" says the boy. 1 know a boy that hasn't got any parents. He goes in swimming when ever he pleases. But I am going to stick to my parents.

Bible texts and refereooes are put to praotioal uses these days by the practical religionists, who believe in the oontinual association of worldly and spiritual ideas. Tho advertising man, too, is beginning to adopt and employ Biblioal allusions and sug gestions as a means of driving home the wedge of his aggressive thought. Ocoasioually the methods followed are even more direot.

New Orleans, September 7.-In many chm ches throughout Texas on Sunday prayers were offered for relief from tho Moxioan boll weevil pest Cotton planters asked the ministers fpr their aid and the pastors responded, not only in the country tc vim and villages, but in the largest churches in the principal cities in the State. The Mexioan boll woovil, the most de structive enemy to the ootton orop that has ever appeared, orossed the Rio Orando a few yeats ago, and has now spread over the Eastorn quarter of Texas, reaching from the coast lino almost to tho Arkansas bordor. In 1002 tho damage indicted by this insect on tho ootton crop was estimated at $10,000,000, and, in the natural order of evouts, the damngo this year should bo greater, tho territory involved having greatly increased. What tho extent Of damage will bo, however, cannot be esti mated until the third annual generation of tho insects nppears in tho next two or throo weoks. Tbe weevil multiplies about 1,000,000 timos or more eaoh gene ration, and Texas planters are now anxiously awaitiug tho coming, third orop. The territory In Texas already oovored is large, involving as groat au area as is em braced in the bon ndarics of ono of tho largor states of the Uniou. At last the weovil bas crossed tho Texas boundary, and appoarcd in Western Louisiana and iu Southern Oklahoma, but tho damage tins year will not be great outside of Texas, The only caso in which tho woovil IIBB mado a long jump has beon to this oity, it having appeared in largo numbers at tho State experimental station in Audubon park, in tho upper limits of Now Orleans, a few weoks ago. It is est i mat ed that tho third crop will spread until tho entire cotton bolt of 'Texas is envoloped, and Texas producos about one-fif th of tho cotton crop of tho country.

A Georgia Farmer Slain in His Field. Tho murder of Ron Stroupo, near Dun-] woody, Qa., last Wednesday afternoon, was ono of the most cold blooded assassi nations that ever occurred in that State. Stroupo, who was a quiet and poacoablo man, was in bis field pulling foddor when two men slipped up behind him aud shot bim niuo times with .'18-calibor pistols. Eight shots wore tired from tho rear and ono bullet struck bim in tho front of tho body. It is believed tho murder grow out of negroes trying to steal pears from Stroupe's orchard. Tho tragedy was fol lowed by a most heartrending scene when tho young wife discovered her hus band's dead body. She was found sit-1 ting on top of a rail fonce, gazing down upon tho body in a frenzy bordering on I madness. If tho murderers aro caught] they will ne lynched. A sensational tragedy occurred at Kinston, N.

Royott was evidently I under the iulluencoof liquor at tho time) and tho net was ono of premeditation, as he bad shown tho pistol, a SH calibre, to Mr. Walter Fields whilo on tho way to tho home of his wife, who has for somo timo been living with hor father, J. C. Chestnut. Tho latter attempted to kill Hoyett whilo he was hoing taken tc jail, but was hold off at the point of tho sheriff's revolver. Train Fell Through tho Trestle.

The chief in terest was io tho nomination of a candidate for Governor. Two pri maries were required to detormiue the matter, and Maj.) Vardnman is the nominee. His platform was : "The white people of the' State have impoverished themselves in trying to educate both races, and now the colored race must educate their children as the white race have educated them. No limit will bo placed on their material prosperity, but they must pay their teachers and educate their own children.'' Maj. Yardamuu's majority was nearly eight thousand. He ran for Governor onoe before on the same platform, but was badly defeated. It is said that the aotion of President Roosevelt in the matter of the Indianola post otilen had muoh to do with Vardaman's success. The vote is a protest against the social-equality ideas of the President, and means that Mississippi resents tho injustice done her. Mississippi has taken the lead in this matter and other States will fol low. The experiment of educating negroes has had a fair trial. The peo ple of the South have taxed them selves to the limit to help the race along and no good has como from it. According to our Inst calculation tho white people of South Carolina pay 29 dollars in taxes to public edu oation where negroes pay but one. When the money is apportioned that difference does not exist, and for years the white people have paid twenty-nine times their ohare to edu cate the negroes. This point has been made before and several times an effort has been made to effect) just division of the taxes, but failed as it did at first in Mississippi. The next effort wo make will be suc cessful. Wheli South Carolina redeemed herself in 1876 it was the Mississippi plan that did the work, and there will be another deliverance if we take the road marked out by Missis sippi. Georgia has spent millions on negro education only to turn out a genera tion of sneak thieves and vagrants who have to be curbed by excessively stringent, vagrancy laws. Money spont for negro education bas been spent in vain. There are people in South Caro lina who believe in continuing the present system of dividing tho taxes. What the great Napoleon said about Martinque is applicable in this case. Speaking of tho emancipation of the negroes there, he r...id, "Few persons were in a situation to foresee the consequence at tho time, but for any ono to persist in these principles is to show a want of good faith ; it is mere pride and hypocrisy." Ho continued, "I am for tho whites be cause I am whito, and it is quite evident that those who propose tho emancipation of tho blaoks must wish for tho slavery of tho whites." No one wishes to deny all aid to tho colored people in tho educational line, but tho inequality between the amount of taxes paid and the benefits received is too great to bo continued. -Abbeville Medium.

Tho boy was only ten years old, hut he made the contract in good faith ; and, as thc sequel showed, he knew how to keep it. As time went on a good many twelve inch pike were delivered at I the market with mutual satisfaction to both parties in the trade. One day the boy was seen tugging through j tho village an enormous fish that almost dragged on the ground. It was two inches over r yard long. Colonel Talbot, a gentleman who knew the young fisherman very well, hailed him and complimented him on his success. "A noble fish, Tom. Whero are you going with it ? I want to buy it." "It's sold to Mr. Kerstor," said thc hoy, without stopping. "That oan't be. Ho hasen't seen it. Say, I'll give you a dollar for it." "I tell you it's sold. 'TiRn't mine." "What's Kerster going togivo you for it ?" "Fifty cents," shouted Tom, still keeping on his way. Tho colonel called after him, "I'll give a dollar and a quarter." Tom turned a moment, with an in dignant look, and replied : "If you get any of this pike, you'll have to get it of Mr. Kerster," and on he went, bending under his load", until he reached the *tore. Mr. Kerster was astonished. "Fifty cents insn't enough for that fish," ho Baid. "I shall have to give you a dollar." "No, sir ; it's yours at fifty cents," insisted Tom. "I'll not take any more. You've hcen kind enough to pay mo for some that were pretty short." And fifty cents was thc price paid for tho big pike. . This story Mr. Korstor himself, in his old ago, gavo to his nephew, Judge MoWhorton, who gave it to the Chicago Standard. The fino conscience and keen sonse of honor that ruled tho boy fixed the habit of a lifo-time. The name by which ho became known to the world was "Stonewall Jackson. Presbyterian.
