An Expert Diver.?A South Dakota
congressman tells a story of the old
coaching days when a certain Pete
McCoy, one of the most skilful of the
old stage drivers, operated a conveyance
that made a circuit of Deadwood,
Carbonate. Spearftsh and Bear Gulch.
Pete was famous for his fast, furious,
daring driving, savs Lippincott'a
Magazine.
One day, the story runs, Pete tore
into Carborate on his usual dead run.
Up to the hotel door clattered the
stage. There, suddenly, as it stopped,
one of the four horses fell dead.
"Kinder sudden, that. Pete," said a
bystander.
"Nuthin' sudden about it." said
Pete. "That hoss died at the top of
the hill, ten miles back, but I wasn't
goin" to let him down until I got to the
reg'lar stoppin* place."
Suspicious.?"How did the accident
happen?" asked the reporter on the
scene of the railway horror, according
to the Philadelphia Ledger.
"Somebody stopped the train by
pulling the airbrake cord," answered
the conductor, who was among the
survivors. "So the second section ran
into us. . It will take six hours to clear
the track so that we can go ahead."
"Six hours?" screamed a passenger
who had not yet spoken. "Six hours?
But I was to have been married today!"
"Have you any idea who pulled the
rope?" continued the reporter, disregarding
the interruption.
"I didn't have till this minute,"
whispered the conductor. "But what's
the matter with telling the detective
to watch that fellow that just butted
in?"
Weakened by Travel.?A new minister
in a rural district who wished
to make the acquaintance of the
members of his congregation, says the
Pittsburgh Chronicle-Dispatch, and
also to discover whether they were
pleased with his discourses, met an
old farmer whose face he recognized as
one who had attended the church the
previous Sunday ana. slopping mm,
said:
"Mr. Brown, how did you like my
sermon last Sunday?"
"Well, parson," replied the old man,
"you see, I didn't have a fair chance
to Judge. Right in front of me was
old Miss Smith and the rest of that
gang with their mouths wide open
Just a swallerln* down all the best of
your sermon; 'n what reached me,
parson, was purty poor stufT, purty
poor stuff."
Would Run In the Bunchy?Frank B.
Kellog tells the story of a forlorn
man who was brought before a western
magistrate charged with drunkenness
and disorderly conduct. When
asked what he had to say for himself,
he gazed pensively at the judge and
launched forth:
"Your honor, 'man's inhumanity to
man makes countless thousands
mourn." I'm not so debased as Swift,
as profligate as Byron, as dissipated
as Poe, or so debauched as?"
"That will do," thundered the magistrate.
"Thirty days; and. officer,
take a list of those names and run
'em in. They're as bad a lot as he Is."
?New York Globe.
No Robbery*?The question of the
wedding fee is one that ministers are
apt to leave to the generosity of the
bridegroom, says the New York Post. |
Sometimes this happy person is too
impecunious iu p?y uu?> or >.o uuvi
anything as its equivalent. This was
not true, however, of the bridegroom
who took the minister aside at the
close of the ceremony and said:
"Say, parson, I'm sorry, but the fact
is I am too near broke to pay you any
cash for this job, but I am a gas fitter,
and I'll tell you what I'll do if you
want me to. I'll go down to your cellar
and fix your gas meter so that it
won't register but half of what you
say."
An Old Man's Fate.?A war veteran's
wife, whose shrewish temper was well
known throughout the state, demanded
that an old servant, who had served
with her husband in the war, be dismissed,
says the New York Times.
"Sam," said the old man, "go to
your room and pack your things and
leave?go away."
"Me?I can go!" he said, in an
ecstasy of gratitude. Then suddenly
his manner changed, as with the utmost
compassion he added:
"But you, my poor old friend, you
must stay."
Punctured.?Private Yeoman?Wonder
what's wrong with the bally 'oss?
'E went off all right, an' now 'e won't
move.
Small Boy (pointing to the spurs)?
Did yer touch 'im with them things?
Private Yeoman?Course I did. 'E?
Small Boy (interruptingly) ? 'E's
punctured. guv-nor?that's what's
wrong with 'im.?Tit-Bits.
He Got There.?The man was reading
the front page of the newspaper
as he walked across the busy street.
"G he mused, "I'd like to get my
name in big type on the front page of
a newspaper."
Just then a street car bumped into
the man.
He got his name on the front page
of the next edition of the paper. But
he missed the story.
Told What He Wanted.?The newly
arrived citizen from Italy was trying
his best to buy a colander, but could
not make the clerk understand what
he wanted. The clerk showed him
several kinds of pans, but at each he
shook his head. Finally he got an idea.
"Give-a me dis-a kind," he said:
"Ze water go ahead, ze macaroni
stop."
Explicit.?"Are you of the opinion.
Jones," asked a slim-looking man of
his companion, "that Dr. Smith's medicine
does any good?"
"Not unless you follow the directions."
"What are the directions?"
"Keep the bottle tightly corked."
For Immediate U?e.?An old Rip Van
Winkle of a fellow went into a country
drug store and asked for some powder.
"Face, gun or bug?" asked the
clerk, leaning far over the counter.
"Bug.'* replied the old man, "and
ne'an to mind about wrappin' it uj>?
just blow it on my whiskers.
At the Boiling Point.?The cat settled
himself luxuriously in front of the
kitchen range and began to purr. Little
Dolly, who was strange to the ways
of cats, regarded her with horror.
"Oh, gran'ma. gran'ma!" she cried.
"Come here quick. The cat's begun to
boil."

Mam Ki*firAAfl
All small towns in the south are
much alike. In all of them are prosperous
white men who need the assistance
of one or more 1i)lack men. If
these white men are so fortunate as
to find a negro who will work, and who
can be trusted to do a simple task
without direct supervision, they cling
to him through the years, forgiving
his Impudence, overlooking his vices,
paying his fines and generally acknowledging
the fact that they are under
bondage to the black rascal. The
natural and logical result of all this
is that the negro becomes lawless. Pick
out the "mean" negroes of any community,
and you will find that their
cussedness is but the outgrowth of the
knowledge that a good white man
stands ready to pay their fines and
keep them off the gang. It is a bad
situation, but white men assert that
they cannot help it. The one time
slave has become the master merely
because he will do nasty, disagreeable
or hard work that white men feel
above doing.?Fountain Inn Tribune. I

War and the Tariff. j
The main object of Republican tar- i
riffs have been to secure the American |
market exclusively for American man- i
ufacturers with very little concern |
about what happened to the American s
consumer in the meanwhile. It so hap- j
pens that as soon as a Democratic (
tariff, whose main object Is to safeguard
the average American pocketbook,
is safely Inscribed on the statute
books, the European war begins and
destroys the chance of foreign competition
in American markets so that
the manufacturer gets just about the
same advantage under the Democratic
tariff as he did under the Republican
tariff. Democratic tariffs are framed
with the American consumer as the
main chance; Republican tariffs are
framed with the American manufacturer
as the big idea. The result of
the war has been to change a Democratic
tariff into one that serves Republican
ends. Meanwhile it is amusing
to hear Republicans begin their ancient
wail about lack of prosperity that the
country suffers under a Democratic
tariff.?Columbia Record.

Politeness.
On two occasions recently the
writer has been on train carriages that
were crowded, and on each occasion a
large number of those in the carriages
were working men. Their clothes were
of the coarser texture, which bespeaks
their occupations. And on both occasions
there entered these cars a number
of ladies, who looked 'round in vain
for empty seats. Straightway these
men, perhaps tired after working at
the loom or in some machine shop, or
at some other form of endeavor commonly
known as labor, arose and offer- i
I -J lj ntlal, .

that some of those who say that politeness
is disappearing in the south
could have been in these cars. It cannot
be successfully denied that much
of the old-time punctilo has gone, and
neither can it be said that all the
former politeness is yet extant. But
when men who are tired arise from
their seats as these men did, a true
southerner cannot but feel glad. Oh,
politeness is more or less foolish,
some folks say. But this is not true.
Even in a busy and commercial age
when men pride themselves upon
common sense and practicalness, this
form of chivalry has its prettiness. It
should be preserved. Let the useless
and the meaningless observances pass
into romantic fiction, if you choose,
but let this attractive virtue of true
politeness remain with us. Consider
the other person?that is courtesy.
Now it sometimes happens that persons
to whom courtesy is shown are
not appreciative; that they impose
upon it. In that case, one scarcely
knows what to do. But the general
rule?the* principle yet applies. Be
courteous, be polite, and thus make
yourself feel better, and make others
feel better too. Possibly we are old
and fogy in our notions, but we cannot
avoid such notions. Politeness, or the
broader term, courtesy, is pretty; it is
more than that. It just makes life
iiiuir \M?i in living, uii'UK? iiiiii mf t*p:c
existence, and .adds a little attractive
color and sentiment to the daily routine.?Greenville
News.
A FINE EXAMPLE
York County Farmer Began With
Nothing?Now on Easy Street.
About seven years ago, John Allen,
a grandson of Henry Fudge of West
Main street, bought a farm of 100
acres on credit in the Edgmoor section.
Today he owns that farm and
does not owe a dollar in the world.
Mr. Allen, who is about 31 years
old. is a living illustration of the fact
that if the young men stay on the
farm and work they will make an independent
living. Too many young
men of the farm dock to the cities in
the hope of bettering their condition.
As a matter of fact, the man on the
farm today is the most independent
citizen of us all. Mr. Allen works two
plows. He hires & negro man, his
wife and a girl, and with these he
managed his farm the past seven years
and realized a profit of $2,500, it is alleged.
He sowed 13* acres to cotton
and made 19 bales. He also made 40
bushels of wheat, 96 gallons of molasses
and has 3 hogs in a pen which will
total 1,300 pounds of meat. He hasn't
bought a thing the past year except
what his wife paid for with butter,
chickens and eggs. He aid noi use
much guano, and what he did use he
paid cash for.
Wis negro helper made 10 bales of
cotton, besides' raising foodstuff for
himself and stock.
Mr. Allen has all his machinery and
stock paid for and, better still, paid
for out of the profits of his farming
operations, not with borrowed money.
Starting seven years ago with absolutely
nothing, this man shows the
people what can be done by hard work
and the use of brains.?Rock Hill
Record.
PIGEONS FOR MARKET
Squabs Can be Raised to Advantage in
South Carolina.
The climate of South Carolina is
Ideal for growing pigeons, according
to the poultry husbandman of Clemson
college. The winters of this section
are not too cold, nor are the summers
too hot for the production of
squabs on a commercial scale. It Is
only in the moulting period that the
number of eggs and young pigeons
will be decreased.
No special pigeon house Is necessary
In this state. An open-front
chicken house, 10 feet long and 8 feet
wide, and with a height of 7 feet in
front and 5 feet in back, will accommodate
30 pairs of pJgeons. The house
should face south and should have the
east, north and west sides boarded up
tightly, as described in Farmers'
rv,>,^oo ?t,,l1oHn Ifi nf Plem
ivtaviiiift wuiov uv?..w?.. - ?i w- ?.??
son college.
To complete the plant, erect in front
of the house a frame 16 feet long. 100
feet wide, and 6 feet 6 inches high,
using 2x2 inch posts and 1x3 inch
boards. Cover the frame with 1-inch
mesh wire netting. This "fly" gives
the pigeons the necessary exercise and
the small wire keeps sparrows out.
Good varieties are White King,
White Homers, White Swiss Mondaines,
and Red, Yellow or Splashed
Carneaux. White pigeons are preferred
because they can be sold alive at
good prices when a surplus of stock
arises. For some time the demand for
good breeding stock will take care of
the supply and the squabs can also be
killed, chilled, packed in ice and sold
in Atlanta and other markets.
GARDEN OF THE BALKANS
Poor Man'* Paradise?Beggars Were
Scarce and Poverty Unknown.
"Serbia was Just winning recognition
as an undeveloped agricultural
bonanza at the.outbreak of the war;
and the propaganda which the Serbians
had pushed for years and years
to attract French and British capital
to their country was on the point of
bearing fruit," says a bulletin just issued
by the National Geographical
society, in which the economic condition
of the Serbia of pre-war days is
reviewed. "Serbia has been justly
known as 'the garden of the Balkans,'
ind in its valleys are found some of
:he richest soils of Europe, not excepting
the 'black earth' belt of Rusda
and the verdant Frluli. Unlike
Russia's black earth belt, which has
seen losing Its fertility, so that some
jf the northern provinces are out anking
those of the favored south,
:he Serbian lands have barely begun
:o give their wealth to the farmer.
"The sturdy middle kingdom of the
Balkans is composed of a nation of
'armers?soldier-farmers, for every
Serbian is a soldier?and manufacturng
industry has hardly appeared
imong them. The fabricated products
lsed in Serbia, and these were only of
he simplest and most necessary kinds
everywhere in the land outside of the
eapital city, were almost wholly made
jp of imports by way of the Hunga-ian
frontier and by way of the Greek
curt, Saloniki. The wealth of the
and came from its farms and its
grazing fields, and from these sources
jut a tithe was taken of that which
night have been produced with the
nvestment of the needed capital.
"Among other characterizations of
his much-nicknamed country, that of
the poor man's paradise' tells a fuller
jtory than any other. Before the out)reak
of the war, which by now has
iwept away crops, live stock and tillers
of the soil, Serbia, throughout its
ength and breadth, was more truly
i land of sufficiency than any other
and in Europe. There was no probem
of an urban or Industrial proletarat.
Beggers were scarce and helpess
poverty all but unknown. Even
he Serbian agricultural laborer has
seen said to be as well off as the small
'armer in England. More fertility of
soil, and more picturesque beauty of
andscape is found in the middle kinglom
than in any other Balkan state.
"Pigs formed the chief element of
Serbian wealth. They were corn-fed
pigs, like those of our western plains,
ind were fattened in autumn and
summer on the beech-mast and
icorns of the extensive Serbian
'orests. Despite keen American competition
and the unfavorable tariffs
pf neighbors, Serbian pork products
'ound an ever increasing export. The
pigs are mostly of a native breed, pure
vhite or black, though some foreign
preeds have been introduced during
ecent years. In relation to its popuation,
Serbia possessed more pigs
md sheep at the time of the war's
putbreak than any other country in
Rurope, having more than 1,000,000
pigs and about 3,600,000 sheep.
3oats, also, are raised in great numpers,
and the favored Serbian cheeses
ire made of the milk of goats and
;wes.
"Methods of farming and stockrasing
have never risen above the
[primitive in this land of plenty,
ivhich 'tickled* with the peasant's
poe always 'laughs back with a hardest.'
Indian corn, the basis of the
diet of the Serbian farmer and of
[he Serbian livestock, is the principal
prop of the land. The normal annual
vield exceeds more than 5.000,000
Pushels. Important quantities of
ivheat, flax, hemp and tobacco have
[peen regularly grown. In 1910, the
mgar-beet was Introduced into the
crops of Serbia, and this new industry
;rew with astonishing rapidity, until
it threatened a future serious
competition for the beet-sugar in
lustry of Austria. All the fruits of
central Europe thrive in the middle
Ralkan kingdom, and from one of

"Lack of capital has kept the little
kingdom from taking a prominent
part In the world of commerce; and,
until recent years, this lack of capital
was due to the facts that the outside
world knew little of Serbia, and
that little had been placed before It In

cafes that patrons who do not have
the right change to pay for refreshments
will have to accept postage
stamps or checks for change for any
sum less than ten sous, says an Associated
Press dispatch. This is another
indication 'of the scarcity of coppers,
which numerous collections for charitable
purposes have withdrawn temporarily
from circulation, and the fact
that since small money became scarce
there has been a tendency on the part
of the people to cling to what they
have. Some people are said to be
hoarding coppers because they are
afraid they will get entirely out of
them, and others, it is charged, are
collecting them with the less worthy
motive of making five francs premium
on every hundred francs in copper
coin delivered at certain confidential
points. It is the old story of the Germans
trying to drain France of its
copper. The real reason is thought in
official circles to be simply that the
absence of gold overworks all the minor
denominations, copper and nickel,
as well as silver.
The mint is handicapped by the mobilizing
of some of its machines for
other urgent work for the national defense
and the copper coinage fell last
month to 100,000 francs.
Wife Made Pet of Snakes.?Zephany
Osteen of Preston got a divorce from
Sarah Osteen because she had joined
the Church of the Followers, known
by some as the "Snake Eaters," because
of their belief that they could
handle poisonous reptiles without
harm to themselves, according to a
Pratt, Kan., dispatch.
Osteen said that often his wife
would fondle her baby in one arm and
a rattlesnake in the other arm at the
same time. He said that while they
lived on a claim several of the socalled
prophets died from the effects
of snake bites.
A brother was badly bitten and once
Mrs. Osteen incurred the enmity of his
snakeship and he set his poisonous
fangs into her flesh. R. H. Brown, a
minister of that church, swore that
Mrs. Osteen handled large snakes often
and when her children were in
danger. He denounced her as a false
prophet and explained to the court
their belief.

SERYICE-That's It
. It is a well known fact that when it
comes to Fire Insurance, there is no
difference in the rate charged per
$100 by all the reputable companies,
but it is a fact that the rate charged
by agents who are not on the job?the
kind who are writing Insurance principally
for the commission?could
often be reduced materially if certain
changes were made and the agent who
knows, and iH not in the business solely
for commissions, will, at least advise
his clients how a rate can be reduced.
Service of this kind is and has
always been my specialty, and I have
saved hundreds of dollars for my
clients. Some of them, in fact the
majority, have appreciated it, but some
have not. but I will continue the policy
because It Is right. I do not ask for
business on any other ground than
value received. One of the most serious
handicaps of the business is that
after a minimum rate has been se
cured and policies Issued correctly, the
novice can issue a policy Just as well
as the expert, and some lnsurees will
give him business from various
motives.
MUTUAL BENEFIT INSURANCE
What has been said of Kire Insurance
above does not apply to Life Insurance.
No agent can give you as
much for your money in Life Insurance
as I can in a Mutual Benefit
Policy and I can prove this claim to
your satisfaction if you will ask to
be shown. Wise people look before
they leap.

"00-y! My Corn-n!" m
H-m, Use 'Gets-It.' 1
Then You'll Have No Corne to Bumpt
Your Corne Will Come "Clean
Off," Quickl
Did you ever see a corn peel off
after you've used "Gets-It" on it? a
Well, it's a moving-picture for your
life! And you hardly do a thing to it.
"Sore Corn Bomped .
Vg!
Put a little "Gets-It" on, it dries at
once. There's nothing to stick. Put
Bhoes and stockings on right over it.
No pain, no fuss, 48 hours?corns
gone. "Gets-It" never hurts the true
flesh, never makes toes sore. If you
have tried almost everything else for
corns, you will be much more surprised
to see how quickly and easily your
corns and calluses will come right off
with "Gets-It." Quit limping and
wrinkles. Try "Gets-It" tonight on
that corn, callus, wart or bunion, and
you'll be glad you read this.
"Gets-It" is sold by all druggists,
26c a bottle, or sent direct by EX Lawrence
& Co., Chicago.
