Growth ot ProWWKow.
[Baptist Courier, June 1.1
The agitation that has boen going
on for a number of years in favor of
prohibition is bearing fruit. The
sentiment in favor of temperance is
stronger than ever before. The !
teaching in thc ohuroheB, schools and
homes is producing happy results.
The friends of this oause need not be
discouraged. Complete and perfect
victory may not oome to any State
aa a whole, but the salo and uso of
intoxicating liquors will be greatly
lessened in many places. The traffic
in liquors, legal and illicit, is under
the ban. The use of liquor on the
part of employees is discouraged and
in many oases prohibited by large
corporations, business conoerns and
.employers. Every man, young and
old, making application in due form
for government position must answer
the question, "Do you use intoxicat
ing drinks?" No doubt many an
applicant has been turned down upon
answering that question in the affir
mative. The drinking school toacher
isa thing of the past; parents de
mand sober teachers. It is a rare
uight to soo a drinking physician ; the
people wish a sober man to stand by
the bedside of their beloved sick. In
all the professions and occupations
the world is looking for sober men.
This is right. How important, then,
for parents, teachers and preachers
who have to do with training tho
young to impress upon them the su
premo importance and necessity of
living sober lives. Tho growth of
the temperance and prohibition sen
timent is to oe hailed with delight by
all right th.oking people
We are pleased to find the follow
ing encouraging words and facts in
our worthy contemporary, tho South
ern Christian Advocate, a paper that
uses its great influence in favor of
righteousness :
"?Few people who do not keep in
actual touoh with tho question of
prohibition have any conception of
tho sure and steady growth of the
piohibition sentiment in the United
States. Figures may often prove
?misleading, but tho following facts
from a recent authoritative report
are both encouraging and convincing.
The report reviews by statistics the
status of prohibition in thirty-nine
States of tho Union, and shows it?
relative strength. Three of these
Kansas, Maine and North Dakota
are prohibition States. In Tonnes
see prohibition prevail? in all save
eight cilios of over 5,000 ; in Iowa
in all save twenty-five cities; in Vir
ginia and Nerti) Carolina local op
tion laws were passed in 1903, and
in the former Richmond is the only
important city without prohibition.
In twelve other States, all Southern
with the exception of Pennsylvania,
und of 062 counties, 503, or more
than half, have prohibition, lil have
partial prohibition, ll have dispen
saries, and only 337 allow the salo of
.intoxicating drinks under license. In
nineteen States, with tho exception
of Mississippi, all Northern and
Western, 4,411 towns and cities are
wholly prohibitive. While no report
is obtainable from tho country dis
tricts, it is a natural inference that
with the prohibition sentiment so
strong in the towns and cities, this
sentiment must be oven stronger in
the country."
The term "Dyspepsia" moans a lack of
pepsin in the stomach. Indigestion is
rightly used when evor tho food is uot
properly digested, regardless to tho
cause. It is immaterial whothor you
call your ailment dyspepsia or indigestion
when Uydalo's Stomach Tablets aro used.
They aro guarantee.1 to euro all forms of
stomach trouble Hey a trial box, (price
25 cents) and be convinced. Walhalla

Suggestions as to Drunkards.
Dr. I. A. McSwain, in a paper on
alcoholic insanity, read before the
Tennessee Medical Association, of
fered the following suggestions :
1. The children of drunken and
.debauched parents ought for obvious
reasons to oe taken away from them
.and placed in decent homes, or re
'moved to industrial institutions pro
vided by the State. This would
?..heck their hereditary tendencies to
drunkenness, and therefore reduce
tho number being raised up to be
come a burden to thc State in the
way of paupers, criminals, lunatics.
'2. Young people who in early life
contract thc pernicious habit of
drinking should also be removed
'from the temptation of their environ
'nents, and placed in institutions in
which they should bo taught some
useful employment and restrained
f Tom vicious habits.
3. The drinking maa, as soon as
be began his spree, before ho was
tyrttsc? by it, should bo taken into
custody, not as a nuisance, but as a
clangorous man or one likely to be
come so, because of insanity in tho
incipient stage.
4. The confirmed drunkard, the
chronic alcoholic subject, should on
too account be allowed to exercise
fais personal liberty in the punmit of
.delusions wbioh result from pro
longed excesses.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion.
Post Office Suggestions. |
The following suggestions have
been mailed to us by a subscriber
residing at Victoria, N. C.:
1. After your mail has been banded
out to you, please inquire if "that's
all." It sounds BO insinuating and
pleases the postmaster.
2. When you fail to get mail that
you were expecting you should re
mark, "Well, that's strange. It was
mailed to this post office." Give
him to understand that you know
that the post office system is so per
foot that no mistakes are ever raado
any where iii the whole business ex
cept in this office. Then be will be
likely to produoe the mail in ques
tion at once.
3. When you have mail that re
quires stamps on it, just pass it io
and tell the postmaster to "stick 'em
on," as the Hoking of two or three
Htaraps might make you sick, but the
Hoking of fifty or more stamps a
day would not hurt a postmaster.
No matter if it did.
4. When you mail a letter you
should tell the postmaster when and
whioh way to send it off, as the old
sap head would not be likely to
know unless you told him.
?. When the postmaster finds a
letter with the two "mystic" words
"In haste," written od the envelope,
he gets a hustle on himself, and mails
that letter at once. The mail car
riers whip their horses into a gallop ;
the postal olerks on the rotite fall
over one another in their hurry to
push that letter along ahead of all
the others, and the engineer of the
mail train will pull the throttle wide
open and rush that train along ninety
miles au hour.
6. When you have something that
you wish to get registered, or want a
money order you might como in early
in the morning to have it attended
to during the hurry of getting off the
mails or during the rush of receiving
and delivering the evening mails, or,
better still, about 9 o'clock in tho
evening after the books are closed.
It will give you so much pleasure to
have to wait, at the hours above
mentioned, four or five times Ioniser
than if you had called at any other
time of the day, besides, it is during
such hurried times that mistakes are
most likely to OCOUT,
7. It is so very pleasing, too, to
those who are impatiently waiting
to get their mail, to see you standing
at the delivery window deliberately
looking over your mail, buying
stamps and passing in a big bill to
got changed, all of which, with
proper regard for the rights of others,
should have been attended to at a
more seasonable time.
Now is the Time to Subscribe.
It is never safe to borrow the
newspaper to which your neighbor
subscribes and for which he pays.
Head the following account, given by
tho Kansas City Journal, of what
happened to a mau in that part of
the country who kept u;? with the
progress of events at the expense of
the man who took the paper :
"A man who was too economical
to subscribe for his home paper sent
his little boy to borrow the copy
taken by his neighbor. In his haste
tho boy ran over a |4 stand of bees
and in ten minutes looked like a
warty summer squash. His cries
reached his father, who ran to his
assistance, and, failing to notice a
barbed-wire fenee, ran into it, break
ing it down, cutting a handful of
flesh from his anatomy and ruining a
*5 pair of pants. Tho old cow took
advantage of the gap in the fence
and got into tho corn-field and
killed herself eating green corn.
Hearing the racket, the wife ran,
Upset a four gallon chun of rich
cream into a basket of kitten?,
drowning the whole Hock. In her
hurry she dropped a $'?5 se*, of false
teeth. Tho baby, left alone, crawled
through the spilled cream and into
the parlor, ruining a *'20 carpet.
During tho excitement the oldest
d nighter ran away with the hired
man, the dog broke up cloven setting
hens, and the calves got out and
chewed the tails off four fino shirts."
It might have been worse.

Very Appropriate to the Season.
There never wore a better people
than the people of South Carolina.
They have had bitter enemies and
tiley have been occasionally much
maligned, but when it comes to tho
highest grace of all the grace of
loving kindness, they cannot be
beaten this side of heaven. Pardon
my partiality for I really think so.
Now all this sweet talk has a pur
pose-it is a prelude to a suggestion
to the people of this generous State
to set their generous hearts to a
task before the summer vacation be
gins. And it is about to begin just
now.
Have you thought of your little
orphan brothers and sisters ? There
are two hundred of them in the
Presbyterian Orphanage at Clinton
(Thornwell), there are two hundred'
more in the Baptist Orphanage at
Greenwood (Connie Maxwell), and
there aro nearly that many at the
Methodist Orphanage at Columbia
(Epworth).
I know something of the condition
of these denominational homes, for
I have a standing welcome at all of
them, and who ought to know them
better than I ? I know that at this
soason of tho year they aroj always
sorely pressed for the necessities of
life, and this little love lotter ?| to my
brethren of the different denomina
tions is to suggest that oach one of
you send at once your check or a
barrel of flour, or rice, or molasses or
even a sack of grits to the orphan
age you love best. Juno and July
are the best times to send. Every
body with a heart ought to feel it a
privilege to do it. At any of these
homes a nickle will give a child a
good meal and five dollars will board
a child for a month. There are six
hundred of these children in your
church orphanages. And that does
not count thc Episcopal and Catho
lic homes in Chai teston or the
Charleston Orphan House, supported
by the city, or the Colored Industrial
Orphanages in Charleston a id Co
lumbia run by those two good colored
men, Jenkins and Carroll, who de
serve tho help and sympathy of the
white people of this State. And I
do hope they will not be forgotten.
Now, sit down quickly, dear
friend, beforo you take your own va
cation, and before you forgot it, and
do something for the institution that
you lovo boat. This is the soason
when nearly everybody is fixing for
a good timo. Your dear little
brothers and sisters at the orphan
ages ought to have a good time, too.
Your friend and follow citizen,
