fellow, meeting a whlte-whlskered
chap, according to the Cleveland Plain
Dealer.
"Well, well," answered the other,
waiting to get his breath and to remember
where he's ever seen the

and his manner even more so:
"I guess it's been a long time since
we run across one another."
"It sure is. How's all the family?

ried the most lucky?"
"The first two."
"Why so? How's that? The third
got the richest husband, didn't she?"
"Yes, but he has to support the
husbands of the other two."
Wanted to Pay Difference.?The
arithmetic lesson that day had been
hard and trying, and now, at the
closing hour, Tommy stood before
the teacher, waiting to hear results.
"Your last problem was wrong,"
was the verdict. "You will have to
stay after school and do it again."
Tommy looked at the clock. "Tell
me, please, how much am I out?" he
asked.
"Your answer is two cents short."
Tommy's hand dived into the pocket
where his most treasured possessions
were stored. Swiftly he sepa
rated two pennies from a bunch of
strings, a penknife, some marbles and
pieces of chalk.
"I'm in a hurry, sir,'' he said: "if
you don't mind, I'll pay the difference."
Not There, Either.?Will Beattie,
the dean of Kansas commercial travelers,
once attended a high-up social
gathering In Wichita. He found himself
with a charming young woman
from the east. She was quite taken
with Beattie and finally she made
bold to ask:
"What business are you in, Mr.
Beattie?"
"I'm a commercial traveler," he replied.
The young woman stepped back and
said, smilingly. "In Holyoke, Mass.,
Mr. Beattle, commercial travelers
don't go In the best of society."
"Neither do they here,'' said Beattie.
That was a good many years ago,
but at the last reports, the young
woman was still wondering.
Sizing Them Up.?The governor of
a southern state came to his office with
a friend one morning, to find a number
of men waiting in the ante-room.
Pausing a moment he told a story that
was a decided "chestnut." When they
got Inside the private office, the friend
said, "That was a horribly old one you
sprung on those fellows."
"I know It," chuckled the governor,
"but did you notice the ones that
laughed?"
"Well, I noticed that three or four
did."
"Those," said the governor, "are the
fellows who won't get in to see me.
They are the ones who have favors to
ask."
He Kn*w.?The teacher was giving
the geography class a lesson on the
cattle ranches. She snoke of their
beef all coming from the west, and
wishing to test the children's observation,
she asked:
"And what else comes to us from
these ranches?"
That was a poser. She looked at her
shoes, but no one took the hint. She
tried again.
"What do we get from the cattle
besides beef?"
One boy eagerly raised his hand.
"I know what it is. It's tripe!" he
answered, triumphantly.
His Wsv of Putting It.?John had
worked forty-two years for a corporation
and decided to retire. In consideration
of his long and faithful
service the company arranged to give
him a sum of money and asked the
German foreman to present it to him
in a little speech. Accordingly the
foreman said:
"John, you haf vorked for dis gompany

"Yes."
"And you vos going to kvit?"
"Yes."
"Veil de gompany vos so glad dey

"I only told her the one you put
me up to," said Gerald.
"I put you up to? Why what on
earth do you mean?" cried the surprised
mother.
"Why, when she asked me to have
more turkey, I said, 'No, thank you,
I've had enough.' "
The Injured Colonel.?One New

who is a regular guest of a Louisville
hotel, came down to breakfast
with a bandaged head.
"What's the matter with the head?"

"Confound it all!" exclaimed the

The following receipt is an excellent
one for making rose pudding:
Pour one pint of raspberry Juice into
a saucepan and add one cupful of
sugar. Add a half-cupful of cornstarch,
mixed with a little cold water
to the boiling fruit Juice, cook well
and when partly cooled add a teaspoonful
of rose water and almond
extract, half of each. Fold in the
stifflly beaten white of two eggs.
Dip a melon mold into cold water,
drain and sprinkle with chopped almonds.
Fill the mold and sprinkle
with the almonds. Serve, unmolded,
with whipped cream heaped around
the mold.
White silk need never be cleaned,
but should be washed. It is tru>~ that
unless you are careful it will turn yellow,
but if the silk is washed as it
should be, it will stay quite white
and new In color. In the first place,
silk should never be allowed to become
much soiled, for it will turn
yellow if too much soiled. It should
be washed in warm (rot hot) water
and castile soap. The silk should do
well rinsed and dipped in blue water
at the last. Care should be taken
not to have the water too blue, but
just enough to have the silk keep that
new white shade. Hang it up until it
is not quite dry. but dry enough to
press nicely with a warm iron.
Did you know that:
If a garment becomes soiled with
perspiration, put it in soft, lukeworm
water and wash with Indian meal instead
of soap. This will remove
stains of long standing if the meal
is well rubbed into the soiled places
wth your hands.
To clean gold chains, put them in
a small glass bottle with warm soapsuds
and a little prepared , chalk,
shake until clean. Then rinse in
clean water.
The housewife will f.nd it admirable
to put the silverwire into a tall
pitcher standing in the dishpan. In
this way the silver may be washed in
much hotter water than could be managed
otherwise, as it is not necessary
to put the hands into the water
at all.
If strong alum water is quickly applied
to a bum it will never blister;
lard and white of egg is also good.
Lace curtains can be washed without
stretching by basting a piece of
muslin around the edges.
To prepare kindling wood, take a
tight pall with cover, put cobs or any
soft bits of wood and pour some kerosene
oil over it; let stand until absorbed.
One piece makes a good
starter.
Salt added to whitewash will make
It stick better.
To brighten glassware add bluing
to the wash water.
Here is the receipt they are using in
Boston in cooking Boston baked beans.
It is the only original receipt for the
preparation of the dish which is known
the world over: Beans, two cupfuls;
one small onion; pork, one-half pound;
dry mustard, one-half teaspoonful;
molasses, one teaspoonful; sugar, one
tablespoonful; a little salt. Prepare
kidney beans, which are a little more
expensive than "yellow eyes," or pea
beans, but the flavor is so much better
that they are worth the difference in
price. Soak overnight in a quart of
warm water. In the morning put the
beans in a kettle, pour a little boiling
water over them and set them on the
stove where they will parboil; cook
until soft, but not so long that the
skins come off?by blowing on beans,
if skins crack, time to take them up
by skimming beans right from water
on to bean pot; put a layer in bottom
of latter, then one small onion, peeled,
next cover up onion with beans, then
on top of this layer put one-half
pound of sweet salt pork w:th a
streak of lean in it and scored in
slices, but not cut all the way through.
Now put remainder of beans on top of
pork, which should bring the pork
level wun tne lop layer or Deans; aaa
one-half level teaspoonful of dry
mustard, one teaspoonful each of molasses
and sugar and a small quantity
of salt; pour over boiling water to
cover and set bean pot in coolest
part of your oven and let them Just
peter along until supper, of course
adding water every hour or so, as it
cookE away. Cook uncovered, as it improves
the flavor. When done there
should be plenty of brown, crispy ones
on top or they would not be genuine
Boston baked beans.
In the May Woman's Home Companion
appears an Interesting article
about the young princess who will be
empress of Austria when the present
emperor dies. The emperor, Franz
Joseph, is, as every one knows, 85
years old?a worn and aired monarch.
Following is an extract giving some
facts about the young prlrcess: "Archduchess
Zita will be 23 years old on
the 9;h day of May, and will, in consequence,
be the youngest empress
recorded in many a decade. The
Austrlans, and in particular the Viennese,
greet this fact with delight.
Only the very old recall Empress
Elizabeth in her fresh boauty when
she came to them as Franz Joseph's
bride. The saddened story of her
later life, her complete withdrawal
from the Austrian capital many years
ago on the tragic death of her only
son. Crown Prince Rudolf, and to
take up her residence at the palace
in Corfu, which later became the
holiday home of the German emperor,
left the imperial city without an
empress. Advancing years have
brought frightful sorrows to Franz
Joseph, beginning with the suicide or
murder of his son, a mystery unsolved,
and later to be followed by
the cruel assassination of the Empress
Elizabeth at Geneva. Social
functions of his court were minimized;
Vienna, once the gayest capital
in Europe, grew through these
happenings, combined with troubles
financial and political, to be the saddest.
The people have longed for an
empress to revive traditions of a
brilliant court. It means not only a
resurrection of social lil'e, but of
trade and of that spirit of joy which
every Viennese, from lowest to highest,
regards as his birthright."
Black, navy blue, dark brown and
green will constitute the coming fall
and winter season staple colors for
women's wearing apparel, according to
the annual report of the style committee
of the National Cloak, Suit and
Skirt Manufacturers' association,
made public in Cincinnati, last Saturday.
The report says: "There will
be no definite line set for the length of
the suit jacket, but tailored suits, cut
on smartly severe lines, somewhat
shaped to the form, are prominently
represented. Some of the jackets are
distinguished by high buttoning treatments,
set-in sleeves, belted, plaited,
and ilare effects. Skirts should not be
longer than ankle length and the wide
suit skirt, which is narrow enough
to have a graceful swing, is favored.
Broadcloths, worsteds, poplins, garbadines,
chevoits, whipcords, serges and
tweeds form the fabric basis of the
suita Many models are treated with
braid and fur. The coats for separate
wear are to be long and on somewhat
closer fitting lines. They will reveal
fullness and flare in the skirt portion
of the garment. Utility coats will be
cut on loose and straighter lines. The
high buttoned covertible collar and
set-in sleeves will be characteristic.
The semi-kimono sleeve and belted
effects will be seen on many of the
favorite models. Plushes, velours, velvet
cords and novelty pile fabrics
with fur trimmings will be shown,
while chevoits In a variety or weaves
and novelties in plaid effects and
tweeds will make a strong bid for
popularity. It is gratifying to note
that the thought of creating styles in
tills country has impressed itself on
the minds of the general public to
such an extent that the public schools
are encouraging pupils to take up
various phases of this work and this <
movement is receiving the hearty
support of the manufacturers of worn- i
en's garments."

Creusot Artillery Not Inferior to that
of the Kruppa.
I have Just completed a four days'
visit o the holy of holies of France, j
her most sacred, most secret, most
rigidly guarded possession in wartime.
I mean the great cannon man- <
ufacturers at Le Creusot, controlled
by Schneider & Co., the only concern j
in the world that has rivaled the
Krupps in the magnitude of its pro- I
duction, even surpassing them, ac- '
cording to a majority of artillery experts,
in the Ingenuity of its work. <
I also passed a day at the great '
government arsenal at Bourges, where
artillery officers receive their training,
and where explosives are manufactur- f
ed for the shells, which are also made
In the steel works of Le Creusot.
The trip was arranged after longer
and more profound thought on the
part of the ministry of war than that
preceding any permissions granted
for journeys to the tiring line. In fact,
this is the first time in the history of
the works that newspaper men have
been taken there. As on my trips to
the front, I was accompanied by an officer
of the general staff.
Ever since the war of 1870, Le
Creusot has been the great secret of
the French government, not even the
name becoming well known to the
world in general, as has Essen, the
home of the Krupps. Nevertheless, in
several recent wars several nations
that got badly battered learned that
Lie Creusot was responsible for
Schneider & Co., have sold cannon to
all applicants except Germany and
Austria?those countries always having
been on the black list.
England first got a taste of the
Creusot guns at the hands of the
Boers; but the real test came in the
recent Balkan war, at the battle of
Liule Burgas, when the Bulgarians and
Serbs caused the debacle of the German-organized
Turks. Then every
press dispatch in the world carried the
significant line: "The Creusot cannon
silenced the Krupps." Since then
European artillery experts have been
in the habit of making the remark?
which the public still declines to appropriate?"The
French army has the
best field artillery in the world."
The present war has proved them
right; for, excepting Germany's heavy
siege mortars of 44-centimeters, the
Creusot "75s" have had the best of
every artillery argument on the battleline.
In fact the Krupp's "77s" especially
designed to combat the "75s" have
been pronounced a failure.
So, on my trip to the Le Creusot, I
did not think about the "75s;" that
question was settled. What I wanted
to know was whether France had
evolved, since the work accomplished
by the German mosters at L<iege,
Namur, Maubeuge and Antwerp. I can
now say?for I have seen?that France
has, not one, but two types of artil- *.
lery that will beat anything belonging
to Germany.
Before proceeding further, let me
explain that the captain who accompanied
me on the trip, and who will
personally censor this article, only today
obtained from the minister of war
the exact data of what I am permitted
to describe. His censorship will be
more rigid than that previoupsly applied
to any story ever cabled. He
told me that I would not be allowed
to say whether the new types of guns
were howitzers or mortars, and that
the ranges and weights of projectiles
must not be given. So I shall merely
call them cannon, leaving out more
specific details.
Frenchmen rarely attempt to make
"the biggest in the world" of anything.
They prefer perfection to size.
They are perfectly willing to let the
Germans make the biggest things. So,
despite the scores of stories told in
Paris about the new monster French
guns, bigger than the biggest German
dreams, I can say that the biggest of
the new cannon are not so large as
the German 42-centimeters. My captain
has just told me that perhaps I
will be allowed to mention the size of
the largest new type; so I change it.
It is 37-centimeter8, or five centime
ters smaller man me uernmu -otn
Johnson." That Is to say, it's bore is
fourteen and one-half inches. It is
called "le Vainqueur." I have seen
these guns. (I may not mention their
number); I have examined each part
of them and handled them; I have
seen their shells in the making from
the moment the great mass of molten
steel, weighing tons, was poured from
furnices like the old-fashioned hell,
through the process of shaping, where
ten men are required to handle one
shell, up to the moment the shell was
ready for the insertion of the explosive
and its fuse. I have compared it with
the German 42-centimeter shells, one
of which fell unexploded near Vardun.
I can affirm that this French shell is
bigger and more deadly than the German;
that "the conqueror" is the more
powerful weapon. I know it will have
a convincing effect upon Germany
when, perhaps, it hurls its steel fury
against the forts of Metz. All I can
say further about this type is that the
date of its going into action is very
near.
But, remember, I said there were
two new French types. Of the second
and smaller type I may not speak at
all, except to say that it is of a very
oua size.
Durinp the recent visit of a newspaper
man to the Krupp works he
was spied upon in a room hunp with
mirrors, his every movement was fol
lowed, and he was allowed to cable
only meager details of what was being
done. During my visit to Le Creusot,
on the contrary, everything possible
was done for me. 1 was lodged in the
clubhouse built by the Schneiders for
the occasional kings, war ministers and
generals who used to come to buy cannon.
Everything was shown and everything
explained clearly, except In
the case of this second new type of
weapon. The secret of it is most
Jealously guarded; nothing of it was
shown except a portion of its carriage,
which gave me a slight hint of its
character. From what I heard I Judge
that it will prove even a greater surprise
to the Germans than its big sister.
Reports from Essen are that 46,000
men are now employed at the
Krupp works. On my trip I learned
that even a greater number of men are
now working day and night in the
French arms and munitions factories,
not at Le Creusot alone, but in the
Schneider company's minor works in
half a dozen other places and in government
arsenals. At the Ecole da
Pyrotechnie, or school of explosives,
which I visited at Bourges, there are
10,000 men and 3,000 women. At the
Etat Major d'Artlllerle, also at Bourges,
there are 5,000 men in the workshop.
At Le Creusot there are nearly 15,000
scattered through the works, covering
1,100 acres, all going at full speed, except
the locomotive shops, which have
been closed since the war began.?
Paris dispatch to New York Times.
RURAL GRADED 8CHOOL8
3tate Has so far Disbursed a Total of
$94,800.
J. E. Swearingen, state superintendent
of education, has been busy since
A.pril 15, paying out to the public
scnoois tne six appropriations made
ay the last general assembly.
The growth of the educational sys:em
is nowhere better illustrated than
n the development of the rural graded
schools." said Mr. Swearingen.
For the scholastic year 1914-15, 399
school districts in 39 counties received
194,800.
These schools may be divided into
:wo classes:
1. Schools having an enrollment of
>0, an average attendance of 30, a
:erm of six months, a two-room buildng,
a 4 mill special, tax and the minmum
equipment required by the state
poard of education, received 3200
state aid.
2. Schools having an enrollment of
15, an average attendance of 40, a
three-room building, a special tax of
i mills and the minimum equipment
required by the state board of education,
receive 3300 state aid.
Greenville county leads with 41
rural graded schools, receiving 39,800;
Anderson county comes second with
12 schools, receiving 37,700; Spartanburg
stands third with 27 schools, receiving
36,200.
The amount of 394,800 paid these
schools was made up as follows: Balance
on hand, July 1, 1914, 32,000; appropriation
1915, 380,000; contingent
fund for specially needed schools, 312,100.
Since the trustees in these rural districts
had employed their teachers and
nade their contracts for the session
L914-15 with the exception of receiving
aid under the rural graded school
law, the state superintendent of education
deemed it advisable to use this
amount of the contingent fund of 360,>00
in maintaining the schools in these
communities that had already voted a
1 mill tax. The legislature increased
the contingent fund for needy schools
py 315,000. But for this increase these
progressive districts would not have
jecured better buildings, an increased
teaching force or a longer term. If this
rate of increase is kept up Mr. Swearingen
estimates that the number of
rural graded schools next year will be
>00. The taxpayers of many districts
ire now voting special 4 mill levlea
Mr. Swearingen said that the oneteacher
school has almost disappeared.
He said that Dorchester county was
the first in the state to secure a local
tax levy in every district.
The following rural graded schools
will this year receive state aid, giving

)f schools in such county, and the total

"THE SUPERIOR CLASS"
Leeches on the Body Politic and What
They Are Worth.
The term "superior class" was coined
by the people who belong to It.
The use of violence to form a selfappointed
superior class is the one
thing that has made this world a
place of the skull.
This superior class has ever been a
menace and always a curse to itself
and others. Its distinguishing feature
is to exclude. It is ossified selfishness,
or caste, as opposed to sympathy, love
and enlightened self-interest.
n nas us rise unen in iiunuiuy uuming
in the name of liberty, and by bestowing
a benefit gets a grip on things;
then the second generation consumes
but ceases to produce.
The country that has the largest
army and the greatest number of the
superior class is nearest death.
The superior class is a burden borne
by the people who work. No nation
ever survived it, none ever can.
This volunteer superior class has
always thought that good is to be
gained by refusing to labor, by wearing
costly and peculiar clothing, by being
carried in a palanquin, by being
waited on by servants, by attaining
culture, that is beyond the reach of
most, through owning things that only
a few can enjoy. These are the ambitions
of the self-styled superior class.
The superior class lives by its wits,
or on the surplus earned by slaves, or
men who are dead. You are dead
yourself when you live on the labor
of dead men?you are so nearly drowning
that you clutch society and pull
it under with you.
To exclude is to be excluded. When
the superior class shuts out the poor
and so-called ignorant, It is deprived
of all the spiritual benefit the lowly
have to give.
Caste is a Chinese wall that shuts
people in as well as out.
If you can make people kind, not
merely respectable, the problem of
the ages will be solved.
This bogus legal tender of gentility,
which is the chief asset of the superior
class, can never be done away
with through violence and revolution.
This has been tried again and again.
Revolution is a surgical operation that
ever leaves the roots of the cancer
untouched.
The remedy Is a new method of education
which will teach men to be,
not seem?that will give pupils diplomas
on what they can do, not on what
they can memorize.
The millenium will come in this
way: First?Men will decline to affiliate
with a social club that offers
a reward for blind credulity.
Second?Men will refuse to enlist as
soldiers for any other reason than to
protect from an immediate invasion
threatening their homes.
Third?Parents will refuse to send
their children to any school, college
or university where the curriculum
does not provide that at least one-half
of the school day shall be spent in
productive work.?Elbert Hubbard in
Hearst's Magazine.
State constables now raiding liquor
places in Charleston are using fumi
ture vans to carry seized goods to the
dispensaries. Hundreds of gallons of
whisky and beer have been seized.

Rebuilt TypewritersSTANDARD
TYPEWRITERS practically all sell at
the uniform price of $100.00 Each?That's the "list price"?
sometimes they can be bought for less?and when you have
had it a week it is "second hand" and you could not get the
price you paid if you wanted to sell. Of course the experienced
Typewriter salesman can come along and tell you all
about the little devices that his machine has that no other
machine has?point out its conveniences?its two color ribbon,
back spacer, tabulating device, etc., and make you think
that his machine is the only one to buy. That's his business
?that is exactly what he is paid to do?that's one of the
reasons why you pay $100 for a new Typewriter?You are
asked to pay this price in order to help pay the cost of marketing
the machine?and of course that is all perfectly legit- ,
imate and part of the business. But where do you come in?
Aside from the pride you may have in the "very newest
model" typewriter with all the "newest kinks," you haven't
any more REAL TYPEWRITER value than you would
have had you bought a REBUILT MACHINE. The New
Machine will not write any naraer, any iasier, any ucuci,
any easier or anv plainer than a REBUILT, and it's dollars
to doughnuts that it won't look any better to your eye.
This being TRUE do you think it good business to buy a
New machine at $100.00, when you can buy a Factory Rebuilt
Typewriter of exactly the same make and model at a
saving of from $35.00 to $50.00 or more? Of course, if you
are flush with the coin of the realm, and want to be real
generous to the Typewriter Salesman and the Typewriter
Builders and pay them the $100 anyway, why of course that
is perfectly all right and furthermore it is none of our business.
But if you are buying a Typewriter for business use,
let us urge you to investigate the FACTORY REBUILT
before you buy. Tell us what you want?We will be glad
to make you a price and then you can decide for yourself.
Look these prices over?They will give you an idea of the
saving you will make in buying a REBUILT MACHINE:

age?A Smith Premier No. 2, with double keyboard, has its
advantages to the beginner, because it doesn't require the
use of a "shift key" for Capital letters?the Remington No. 6
is a single keyboard, blind writer and the Oliver No. 2, is a
visible writer?all of these machines are easily within your
reach (see prices above) and will give entire satisfaction.
The price of Rebuilt Machines is governed by the Serial or
Builders' Number?the higher the Serial Number the higher
the price?Express Charges, usually about $1.50?are extra.
THINK THE MATTER OVER
See if you do not think a Typewriter in your home will be
worth the price?and then see us.

No, Thanks, Old Man?
I Don't Need a Thins
?Tell the boy* at the office the
wife and 1 are mighty grateful just
the same.
Luckily, 1 took out an /ETNA
DISABILITY POLICY shortly
before I fell downstairs and broke
my arm. That brings me $50 a * I
week once a month, and will as long
as I'm totally out of the running,
besides paying the surgeon.
After that, $25 a week until I'm fit
to tackle the job again. j
You know how we all chipped in oa a
little collection for Del Morgan when he
cut himself on that ink acratcher, got
blood poison, and was laid up so long?
While Del appreciated it, be was pretty
embarrassed. That taught me my lesson.
I telephoned the /ETNA and told 'em I
wanted to
/ETNA-IZE
Now I'm independent, Betterf ollow suit.
No man's immune from accident or death
or sickness. Write, call, or phone today.
