STATE NORMAL INSTITUTE.
What say the people of Anderson about
having the State Normal School here
this year? We have written to Col.
Coward about it and spoken to Judge
Murray, member of the State Board of
Examiners. Mr. Murray favors it. It
now remains to ascertain whether the
citizens of Anderson want it, and if so,
whether they are so much in earnest as
to provide accommodations for the large
number of teachers nod visitors that will
come to the city. In a few days we pro
pose to canvass the town and find out
what accommodations can bc obtained.
Mindful of the spirit of 6ut-.rprise that
bas ever characterized tho people of An
derson, we apprehend no difUculty ; ii,
however, we should fail, it would bo ex
tremely humiliating to have to report to
Col. Coward that we misjudged our own
people. We know that Anderson can
accommodate douhlo that number of peo
ple for douhlo tho length of time they
stay, if she will, and wo bel?evo she will.
It would he a paying investment iu more
wayB than one. Besides the considerable
amount of money left hero during thu
month's sojourn of the teachers in our
midst, the educating and elevating influ
ence that their very preeenco will havo
on the community at largo will bo of in
calculable value. Many families that
havo never taken boarders would do well
to throw open their doors for ono month
lo tho members of tho Normal Institute.
Tho disintegrating influence of teflried
intelligence upon the rough part? of n
child's nature is very great. Of course,
we do not intend to convey tho impress
ion that every teacher attending the In
stitute is highly educated and rcQued ; if
that were thc case, there would bo no
necessity for the Instituto ; we do unhes
itatingly affirm, however, that that as
semblage of persons is, as a class, con
siderably above tho average citizen. But
argument is unnecessary to convince the
people of Anderson that it is important
to have th? Institute here. Let us seo
what can be done.
Wo bavr. Ijufore us a copy of The Car
olina Teacher, a monthly educational
paper, published in Columbia in accord
ance with the resolutions adopted by The
Teachers' Association of South Carolina
at its annual mooting in Spartanburg last
AugtiBt. It is edited by Messrs. D. B.
Johnson, B. lt. Turuipseed and L. B.
Haynes, all gentlemen of culture and
teachers of experience. Our State has
long folt the need of such o paper, and
we hope the teachers of Anderson will
do their full ahare in giving it a henrty
support. Tho aubscription price of the
paper ia only one dollar per annum, and,
if the copy before us is a fair specimen, a
dollar invested for it will be money well
spent.
It is lamentable how little some teach
ers know about tho work they aro en
gaged in. They seem to content them
selves with pouring iuto the child's mind
a fear rules, names, dales and faots, com
pletely ignoring the apparently unimpor
tant lessons of promptness, ooatness nnd
exactness, which are really of infinitely
moro importance to tho child than any
thing that can oe taught him about
grammar or geography.
Tho teacher's daily text book ought to
be 'the character of his pupils. The
workman ia not likely to succeed when
he forgets entirely tho work he is doing.
It were well if the work of making char
acters were limited to tho black-board
with some teachers ; unfortunately, they
make characters in human beings.
Prof. H. P. Archer, of Charleston,
makes some forcible remarkB in The Car
olina Thacher, on "Teaching as a Profess
ion." , Mr. Archer elatina that no man
should be allowed to leach in the ' public
schools unless he Intends to make teach
ing his life-work or profession. He de*
counces the Idea of making teaching "a
ateppi'ng-Btone to something higher."
He claims that no mao who. does cap be
a true teacher, inasmuch as he can't get
bp the proper enthusiasm, "They are in
tho profession," eays Mr. Archer, "but
not of it; the spirit which actuates them
1* not the spirit of the true teacher ; they
ecck pecuniary emolument only, and are
governed hymotives of personal conven
ience^" A man who is enthusiastic over
bia work Is apt to do the beat work, but
many teachers who never Intended to
mako teaching their life work have done
faithful, honest work. vVhcn.Mr. Archer
claims that ever/ man ?rho does not' ex
pect to make teaching bis life-work ought
to bo rojectcd, .tie forgets that it Is possU
ble'fo^foiw step
ping etono'Jo Mtnothing higher" lo do
much batter V;ork th nh another who ia a
.professional teacher. It does very well
for Mr. Archer, standing at tho bead of
the Charleston schools with a salary,
perhaps, of two or three thousand dollars,
to talk about rejecting tbe applicant who
. ' gives a negative answer to the question,
"Dei you Intend tc make teaching your
life-work ?" Ho doesn't know what mea*
ger salaries oui' country teachers get, and
that they have to sell their claims at ten
per cent, discount at that. In the court*
try tho profession is uot so Inviting.
We are told that One of our teachers

respective Townships will keep ? correct
record of their .work during tho year, aud

gear report tit tho same. Such' reports
would certain!/ awaken a deeper Interest
JD their work and be of very ?gmt aid to
the Com missioner i n making out his an*
giflai''.??port. Tho law relative to the
dalle*' of School Trustees reads as fol

that purpose. Kacb member of the
Board of Trustees shall be duly notified
of ali meetings by tho Clerk of tho
Board." It also requires tho Trustees to
visit euch school at least once in every
school terra. We hopo tho Trustees will
do their whole duty, and feel nssured that
much good can bo accomplished hy their
V?B?LH.
It is a capital idea to teach your pupils
the meaning and use of one or more
words every day. Have them to write
thc word on the black board ; theu anal
yzo it, showing clearly all the part-, of
which it is made up. These all clearly
impressed on the minds of thc* pupils,
make them write Hcuteucea using the
word correctly. One-half hour a day
given to an exercise of this kind would,
no doubt, be of very great benefit to both
teacher and pupils.
AH over thc County tho schools aro
full, some of them too full. The colored
schools are full to overflowing in tomo
townships. Let the Trustees look after
them.
We like the wuy tho Trustees in Hope
well do business. They have repaired
the school houses, bought new desks, and
otherwise provided for the comfort of the
children. The proper step in thu right
direction.

THE WHISK*: HABIT.
How nu Old T?|ior Overcame Ills Appetite
fur Whisky.
A novel idea in the uso of intoxicating
stimulants carno to tho notice of a Call
reporter yesterday in tho case of an old
friend, who some time ago wus the living
Kerson Mention of the old, old story of a
rilliant mind clouded from tho effects of
intoxicants. In his start in lifo this
friend had bright prospecta for a grand
future. Tho appetite for liquor, however,
increased upon him to such nu extent
that he was soon almost entirely incapac
itated for work. Ho rapidly went down
hill, und all efforta to rouse him lo a sense
of his degradation were futile. Tho
reporter Inst saw him in thia condition
over a year ago. Uno day last week ho
met a sprueo und well dressed mun who
boro a resemblance to this friend, but
whom he did not recogui/.o until tho
individual threw out his hand and calle !
tho reporter by name.
"I suppose you hardly know me," ho
said, a smile wreathing his health bloom
ing face. Tho reporter admitted that ho
at first had hardly been able to, aud then
becoming confidential, us old friends do
on meeting, ho soon learned the cause of
tho change. "YeH," said tho friend, "I
used to bo a very hard drinker, ns you
know. I tried several times to quit, but
could not. The appetite for strong drink
waa too much fur mo. If I went without
it for awhile I becatno a nervous wretch.
I bad to drink or dio. A thought was
suggested to mo ono day, though, und I
mudo up my mind to make one supremo
effort to rescuo myself. I reasoned this
wny : A m.-o iakea liquor into his
stomach, and Ihe -aim ol ant, through the
blood, affects the brain. Now, I thought
if I could satisfy my appetite without
the liquor affecting my brain, 1 would be
all right. If I could got the tasto of the
liquor, the aroma, the essenco of ii,
without tnking it into tho ntomacb, I
know I could drink at pleasure and not
become intoxicated, as drunkenness could
uot ensue if tho liquor did not enter the
stomach. I say this idea was suggested
to me, and it wns in Ibis way : I had
noticed that men who made a business of
buying and selling wines in largo quail
titics sampled them and ascertained their
quality ?.?id bouquet by taking two or
thrso mouthfuls in succession, rolling it
around their tongues, as one might say,
bathing their palate in it-in short,
subjecting it to tho severest tests by ibo
orgnns of taste-and then ejecting it
from the mouth without swallowing any.
Tho remembrance of this enmo upon me
one day when I was perfectly sober but
terribly despondent. I resolved to try it.
I did, and have met with the moat grati
fying success. You may laugh, but it ia
lue solemn truth. I took a large driuk
of liquor, but instead of letting it pass
into my stomach 1 clucked it in my
throat and gargled it for a minute, and
then spat it out. To my joy I found my
thirst for it almost as much appeased an
though I had swallowed tho liquor. I
tried it again and again, with the Bame
effect. I was not mnde drunk. I have
followed this plan ever since, aud have
not been drunk since, although I have
gargled the liquor, never swallowing a
drop, as many ns a dozen or more times a
day-the same number nf drinks I used
to take. The plan ia a very simple one,
and is, I believe, tho only one for a s'ave
to the cup."
"Has your appetite increased ?"
"On tho contrary, it bas decreased.
By the means I adopted my bralu bas
become clear and strong again, and my
will power is as good salt ever was before
I became a hard drinker. In gargling
the liquor I got all the benefit of the
flavor, and all the satiafaotion to my
appetite, without losing my senses."
San lYttncitco Call. ?
The Thigh Bono of a Mastodon.
. Among the many curious and interest
ing objecta in the office of Dr. F. L.
Frost, President ol tho Ashley Phosphate
Company, is an immense thigh bone of
one of that gigantic and now entirely
esl inc t animal, the mastodon. The bone
lu its present slate ia thirty three and a
half inches in length, and when in its
natural conditition muat have been fully
three abd a half feet in length. It was
brought to Dr. Frost'* office by Mr. N.
CT. Oateen, the editor and proprietor of
the Sumter Watchman and Southron. Mr.
Citren found il almost burled in the
marsh at the head of a creek which
cu.plies ipto Bulla Bay;, his attention
being called to it by a countryman whose
children .had commenced to cut it .up.
mistaking it for a piece of wood, and
littte dreaming that lt was the remains
of en animal: at which, were one still
living, the entire world would gnxe lo
awe and wonder. Dr. Frost will have
tb? marsh lo the neighborhood of the
spot where this bone was found searched
in tho hope of finding other portions of
tho mastodon's skeleton. Mr. Cateen
had determined to present this specimen
to the Charleston College Museum as
soon as ibo curator, Dr. Manigault, re*
tamed from New Orleans, and lt would
have proved a valuable addition to the
museum, and aa such would harte been
greaMy appreciated. But. a; Dr. Frost's
earnest request Mr. Osteeh concluded to
let h i m retain it. It is hoped, however,
that Dr. Frost's public spirit will prove
stronger than his v?ry natural desire to
po.?sfc.-<i so fin? an evidence of the antedi*
luvlan origin of hie business, and that
the mastodon's thigh bone will, after all,
find ila fitting resting, place ie one of
Dr. Manigftult's glass casts.-Nein and

A WOMAN DESPERADO. !
A Dead Shot Willi a Itevolrer And Very
Fond of . Fight.
AB?MKE, TJ:X.. Jan. 30-Maud Ray
nor, the woniun desperado, lb in jail IQ
this city for uetaull. She ia wanted in a
dozen place?, and had several complaints
aguinst her before the one on which she
is now held was lodged, She lived here
quietly until a woman who wan jealous of
her revealed her identity to thu police.
Aa soon us alie fouud that abe wu* nu
object of suspicion ?ho attacked her
enemy with a club and almost beat her
brains out Maud Raynor has been a
notorious character in this State, thc
Indian Territory and Kansas for aoveral
yearn. She gained thc title of woman
desperado by reason of her recklessness o?
human life and her fondness for fights.
She goes armed to the teeth, shoots with
unerring aim, ami is quite UH much at
home with a howie knife or a club ns
with a revolver. She lins managed to
escape arrest hitherto hy reason of the
fact that nil manner of stories concerning
her hnve been in circulation, and her
actual appearance is very diff?rent from
the idea w hich the people generally have
formed of her. She is of compact framo
and about medium height, with a grace
ful carriage. Her features are small, her
eyes steel gray, and her hair long and
ubtindant. In jail to day she wa- raving
because her keepers hail taken away her
pistols and knives.
''I suppose I'll never see them again,"
she Hiiid. "When you get into one of
theso calubushes they ulwaya help them
selves to what you've got, and whether
you're neut up or not they keep all they
steal. I'll bet I've furnished half the
sherilTs in Texas and Kansas with good
weapons in the hint five years. They
don't get money enough together nt one
timo to buy such things, but. they know
just enough to piuch them when they get
a chance. I played it on a detective up
here in the l'anhnudlo once. Ile hud
been following me for about a month,
mid finally when he got me he took two
guns and three knives away from me. I
saw his eyes hiing out as he looked ul
them, and I anya to him :
"'You'll be well heeled now won't
you ?
"Lie pretended that bc didn't care
anything about the weapons, and showed
mo soma of his old firecracker pistols,
and wanted me to admire them. 1 told
him one of my guiiH was worth a bag full
of hi-*, and niter getting him a little
excited I grubbed ono of my weapons to
show tl to him. I pointed out several of
thc good points, mid then turning it on
him I said :
" 'I want to seo your heels right lively
now.'
"Ile thought I was fooling foru second,
but when the pistols clicked ho knew it
was business. Then he backed off, ?ind
wanted to Irado with mc. I had his
guns and mine, too, but I told him I
wasn't trading. Just lo hurry him up a
little I sont a bullet mighty close to his
ear, and u moment later us he wai edging
oil' I put another ono near enough to his
other ear to singe his hair. Such run
ning you never saw. I wutchsd him out
of sight. Then 1 took his gun? and
threw Hiern into tho river. I wouldn't
have been found demi with them on me."
Maud Kaymo went through the Indian
Territory once with about a regiment of
Indiana nod white men on her trail.
She had bren up ul n ranch on the
Arkansas river, where a picut many
desperate characters wero congregated,
mid iu n shooting affray in which she
took a prominent purl the bnrlender was
killed. Every mau swore Ihal the wo
man waa tie guilty party, and she reck
lessly adm tied it, though it is probuble
she wns not the real offender. Some
friends of the murdered man came along
just then, and organized to lynch her.
(Jetting wind of the programme, she stole
a horse, and set out for Kansas, the men
following. Several Indians joined the
pursuing party ut various places, until
finally there were about a hundred men
ou her trail. She managed to clue them
for several day?, and coming finally upon
a band of chivalrous cowboys, she mado
them believe she was a persecuted inno
cent. Her new-found friends promptly
agreed to defend her against all comers,
and when her pursuers came in sight
they were met by n ve'ley which brought
them to a stand. Io the .-ourse of three
or four days they concludtd to abandon
tho senrch.
The exploit of which shu is proudest
occurred a year or more ago in the Indian
territory. She had.been up in Kansas
on tho warpath, and making hor way
back to Texas had fallen in with a rough
crowd of plainsmen. One nf these was
a man named Dutton whom oho had
known many years before. In the course
af an evening passed at a ranch on thc
cattle trail, she had a quarrel with thie
fellow, and after sotno harsh words ht
rushed at her with a knife. She was too
quick for him. He had hardly got ?ti
striking distance before Bhn pul a bullet
through his heart. As be jumped in thc
air a '.ul fell back dead his comrades nuuk
a rush at the woman, and would huv<
finished ber then and there if one of thc
men had not taken ber part in a mild
sort of a way. As they slopped to par
ley, she made thia proposition :
"I'll fight the whole pack of you, on?
at a time. I killed that man, and I'n
gliul of it. I ought to have done lt year
ago."
Oue man went out with her, and tin
two stepped off twenty paces, turned ant
fired, The man gol a bullet in ht
shoulder, and wanted to quit. The wo
man was'unhurt. Standing there reso
lutely she called on the others for a vic
lim, but no one stirred. Then she tauntei
them, and finally, when she found tha
they were not disposed io annoy he
further, she said :
"Now I'm going to Texas, and I wan
an escort. Row many of you are guim
with me?"
They all agreed to go but two, and ti
those two she addressed herself, saying
"You're just the ones that I want ti
go with me, and you've got to go too."
The others rathe- enjoyed the aporl
She nover took her pistols off them for
minute. They got her hnrse out of th
corral, mounted their own, and at he
command rode on in front of her. Whe
she had driven then! ten or fifteen mile
the made them turn back, while she rod
on toward the South.

After the hattie ol C'hicknmauga, one
J? "our mew" found a needle-case which
bad belonged to ?onie poor fellow, prob
ably among the killed. Ile did not
place niurh value upon the coulent-,
iilthough there wad a paper of number
eight needle*, l?verai button*, and a
dcein or two of thread, cut at each end
and neatly braided, so that each thread
could be smoothly drawn out. He put
the whole tbing in his bre-st pocket,and
thought no more about it. Hut one day,
while out foraging fir himself and bin
mess, he lound himself near a house
where money could have procured a fine
meal of fried chicken, corn pone and
buttermilk bedtlci a ?mall supply to
carry back to camp. Hut Confederate
Moldier-)' punes were generally as empty
as their stomachs, and, in this instance,
the lady of tho house did not oiler lo
give away her nice dinner. While the
poor fellow was inhaling the Enticing odor
and feeling desperately hungry, a girl
rode up to the gate on horseback, aud
bawled out to another girl inside the
house :
"O, Cindy I rid over lo nee if you
couldn't lend me a needle. I broke the
hint one I had lo day, and pap says thar
ain't nary 'Dottier to be bought In the
country hereabouts."
(.'indy declared idie was in tho name lix
und couldn't finish lier new homespun

The soldier just then had an idea. He
retired to a little distance, pulled out hit*
cate, and stuck two needles in the front
of his jacket, tben went back ?md offered
one of them, with his best bow, to ihe
girl on thc horse. Hight away the lady
of the house offered to trade for the one
remaining, and tbe result was a plentiful
dinner for bimself, ami, in consid?rai ion
ol a thread or two of silk, a full haver
sack and canteen. After this our mess
was well supplied, and our forager began
to look sick and fat. The secret of hit*
nueces* did not leak out until long after

rieclnring that he "btid been living like a

Mr. John Pearson's Statement :
lu the ??pring of 1RS2 I was attacked with a Terr
bad cough, which continued lo grow wono until
fall, when I cot so weak that I could not cet
about. I tried a grent many kinds of medicine
but continued to grow worse. I wa* untitled that
I had consumption and would probably din. l)r.
Holloway flually told me to try Brewer'? Lim* Re
storer. They sent to Ward's Store and got a bottle
and I coo me nevil tuklug ll right away. A.ter tak
ing two or three do*e;, I bedail to Improve, sod by
thc lime I had used up one bottle I was ablr to get
on my feet again. I ?ni now in excellent health.
I am confident that tho Lung Restorer saved my
life and my neighbors aro of tho same opinion.
It Is the best l.un? Remedy crer made lu my opin
ion. Pr. IL promised me that he would write to
thc nianfacturcM and tell them of the wonderful
euro it made in my case.
Statement of Mr, Ben]. H. Hearndon:
Karl;.- lu Noretubrr, 18st, while aewlng om th?
machine, my wife wu lakcu with . severe pain in
her aide, which ?ai loon followed by hemorrhagea
from her lungs and a lOTcre cough. Fever com
menced, alie could neither eat or aleep, and in a
few weeks she was reduced to a living skeletal.
The utteudlng physician told me thal he thought
one of her lungs wastntlrely gone. She could uot
retain the most delicate nourishment on ber atom*
adi. I then agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family
physician, lo call Dr. Holloway in consultation.
They r<ade a Aua! examination of the patient aud
pronounced Ihe case hopel-'ss. Dr. Holloway then
?uggested tho Hr.' wc r's Lung Restorer aa a laat
leaorl. I aent fur a bottle and gave her a dose. I
found that aho could retain it or. ber stomach, and
after about the third dose, I began to notice some
Improvement in her condition I continued ibo
medicine regularly, tad by the time alie had taken
two bottles, she waa able to walk about tho house,
ribo ia now in better health than aho has enjoyed
for aeveral years. I believe, the Lung Restorer
laved her life. We have a family of alx children,
tome of them grown."
