Likewise notiiing whatever was d- ne regarding tlie several resolutions as to b : ennial sessions, so although the pe< - pie voted for biennial sessions, tw’o years ago, they have not yet got them nor are likely to get them for several years to come, if at all. One good thing that the legislature did was the passing of an act creating a board of pardons, to relieve the gov ernor of much of the labor of examin ing into the merits of applications for pardons. And the Governor has ap pointed as the board, R. Mays Cleve land, of Greenville ; Wilson G. Harvey of Charleston and Robert W. Shand, cf Columbia. Tee h gislatun provided for seven free scholarships at tne Confederate Home college in Charleston and Gov Heyward will endeavor to get poor and de .serving girls for these positions. One of the most important bills pass ed w’as that to provide for a system of revenue from the taking of shellfish from the waters of the State. This is a measure of moderate terms proposed by the special commission appointed for that purpose, and the new machin ery will be set into operation by a com mission of three to be appointed by the governor. One of these three is to be an inspector and is to have a launch to faciliate him in the work of getting in formation.

This means that these flags will e- ventually be put in the Confederate Battle Abbey, when it is built. The leghilature-adjourned sine die on 3 itnrdi?y night, after a session during wh.ch little or nothing of importance was done. The assembly w-as expeettd to deal with three most important mat ters: Taxation, the dispensary aid biennial sessions. It did nothing on any one of the three topics. The rec ord is a blank, perhaps more than a blanb. ? . . . • The whole situation is expressed in the trite expression, ’“Nothing done. Not usyllable in the Act in force when tne members came here has been changed. One'.proposition to amend the law after another was killed. The House stood to the finish against the State dispensary, while’ the Senate on the other hand,-insisted and persistec that tin* State dispensary must stam , and th;»» me ihing to do was to purifj the Stai dispensary and not abolish it As was >aid the House would have agreed 10 almost any reasonable pro position that would have abolished ihe State dispensary. It wanted local option, and it voted to that effect time and time again. "!\he Senate, with m lory-one members, blocked everything that was proposed by the Hotse, and persisted in its one idea that the State dispensary could be purified by its b lls. When the.Ht me by the largest vote recorded, rejected the Senate bill, ~oT legislation Consumption •J There is no specific for consumption. Fresh air, ex ercise, nourishing food and Scott’s Emulsion will come pretty near curing it, if there is anything to build on. Mil lions of people throughout the world are living and in good health on one lung. €| From time immemorial the doctors prescribed cod liver oil for consumption. Of course the patient could not take it in its old form, hence it did very little good. They can take SCOTT’S EMULSION and tolerate it for a long time. There is no oil, not excepting butter, so easily digested and absorbed by the system as cod liver oil in the form of Scott’s Emulsion, and that is the reason it is so helpful in consumption where its use must be continuous. •J We will send you a sample free.

The bacteria scarce has struck high society, and most extraordinary pre cautions are being employed to prevent attacks of disease, Mrs. William Watts Sherman, of 838 Fifth avenue New York, has startled her friends by the extremes to. which >«ho has "gone to ward off infection. She declines to use any o»her than the most carefully dis tilled water of the most expensive brand for her baths, lest she be made ill by a drop croton containing a germ or microbe getting into her mouth, eye, ear, or nose. She carries a pair of lattice work extension tongs, so as to obviate the necessity of picking up anything even with her gloved fingers. She will not touch a note or letter that has come through the mail or by tm ssenger u - til it has been carefully reniovi d fro its envelope by her secretary. Not only hoes Mrs. Sherman follow thefce rules, but she insists that her two daughters Irene and Mildred, who have madAtheir debut this w inter, be governed fey them. Mrs. Sherman has also madermany converts to her system among her friends. Many of them have already adopted the extension tongs.
