C. Brother Charles has tapped his barrel and from now on the fight for the Ohio senatorship will be a warm number. Curiosity was made the excuse by many supposedly respectable Chicago people for attending the recent orgy in that city. Curiosity seems to be a favorite plea with some people who have to explain their presence in sor e places. The new parliament in Turkey, if it conducts itself wisely and is not unduly influenced by the Sultan, ought to work out the political and K-Vclal salvation of that distracted country and bring peace to its dis cordant elements. Men who refuse to pay their honest debts' will drop coin in the church plate and think they are good. Why is it that so soon as a man stains himself he seeks to rub it off against church pews and pure Sunday sohool children? When a farmer gets it into his ?"noggin" good that the farmers, properly organized, can fight "the world, the fiesh and the devil," he will enjoy more of the good things of this life than he most ever did. But he must organize first and ed ucate. Senator Scott, Republican, of West Vinginia, is responsible for the re mark that there will be two Thanks giving days next year?March 4 and again in November. The Augusta Chionicle wants to know if the gen rieman is trying to break Into the cabinet without being asked? It is a wise person who looks ahead and plans accordingly. It j prevents that worry and confusiou which is always the experience ol those who leave things to the last irrinute and who by so doing disap point themselves and other by the inperfeet character of their work. Congress has'spent two or three weeks without doing any harm, an I now that the members have gone home for the holidays, which every ou hones they will enjoy, is it too much to expec: that they will make the new year resolution to do some effective work when they get ba:-k to Washington? The Augusta Herald says: "Since Senator Tillman does not play golf and Mr. Taft does not play snmiiy, perhaps when Ben comes to see Big Bill in Augusta they will find poker a game that both can play?" Ben Tilbnan does not play poker and if Mr. Taft does, he should quit since he has been fleeted President. A ;>arn?raph is going the rounds ahout a girl dying' from tight lacing. We agree with an exchange that these corsets should be done awa; with and if the girls can't live with out being squeezed, as old^as we are, we'd rather devote three hours a day, without a farthing of pay, as a substitute corset, than seeing these girls dying in that manner. Office hours almost any time. It is altogether likely that Castro saw the "handwriting on the wall." and that this as much as any physical ailment led him to leave Venezuela. Anyway his rule is over and If he is as wealthy as reputed he would do well to remain in Europe the rest of his days. Venezuela is to be con gratulated on being rid of him, and if the new government acts wisely its nffaris. both internal and external will show rapid improvement. Whether vo? talk with you? neighbor or stranger at home or aim-ad. rising or walking, always have ? good word for your town. Spoak of the beautiful homes, the nice str'-^. rhe excellency of the surrodu^ 'in; country and the intel ligence "~ - nternrise of your neigh bors. ?t^>n<* by your town through ?vir-ir rh*n nS you would stand by your h'"- Mend In times of distress an 1 y >u vUl find it prosperous and thriving, as never before. A pT.f orous t^wn is that in which you se< he farmers patronizing the home v-.-Mnts. the laborers spend irg 1hf .r>T.(.v they earn with their Ir&desm' . md all animated by a spirit that they will not purchase ar teles if they can be bought at horrc The spirit of reciprocity be tween no-1 and mechanics, trades men ul~ ' manufacturers, results every rir-e in making the town a ?perfect ore to do business la. Such a town Jet us all Btrive to make Or Another Mile Stone. We will soon pass another mile stone on pur way to eternity, and as we igrow older it seemis that we trav el from one of tbeas mile stones to another faster .'than we did in our youth. Over the gateway of an En glish cafettKil is a sundial and around ' he dial are these words: I mark time, dost thou? I am a shadow, so art thou. In keeping with the second line is Edmund Burke's estimate of man? "What shadows we are, and what shadows we pursue." The closing days of th!? year make us feel that in some measure we are as shadows creeping o\i:ir the face of time. And yet it ought to be possible for us to anlswer affirmatively the combined statement and question, "I mark time, dost thou." Most certainly we [ can do this when we live the true life?the life of clean character and of service to othfelrs, doing che best we can as we know how. The man who has done that dur ing the year now ending may not be altogether satisfied with himself but lift may rejoice that he has had some share, however humble, in helping the world to be better. In truest sense the man who does that is far morel substantial than a shadow. The old year is dying and soon it will be gone. During its three hundred and sixty-five days we have ?had our joys and sorrows. Some homes have Wien visited by the [ Death Angel and the chair of a lov ed one iis> vacant, but iet us be not cast down. Let us enter the New Year resolved to do the best in all ;ines that we can. Divorce Reform Needed. The divorce statistics of this country are not pleasant reading and reveal a 'deplorable amount of do mestic infelicity. Admitting, as is claimed by some, that divorces are excusable on the ground that they make for better domestic conditions in a few instances, yet it cannot be dei ied that divorce is far too Tcr o?ent and that some reform is need ed in the States where they arr granted. Probably what is most needed is a higer conception of the marriage state and fewer injudicious nn.rriages. In the States where t>; divorce habit is indulged in man? people enter upon the marriage re lf-tion who are altogether unfited er unprepared for it. Then, too, many necple in divorce States seem to l< ok upon marriage as almost a Joke or a piece of fun, and they learn by sad experience in most cases xlk truth of the old adage, that "those who marry in haste repent at "leis ure." The horseplay and frivolity often witnessed at weddings also Js not conductive to an exalted idea or marriage. If the sacredness of the institution, w.-re more fuily recogniz ed and better judgment shown in forming ties there would soon be a falling off in divorce statistics. We were told once by a lady of a young lady friend of hers, who, when re monstrated with, said if the-mar riage did not 'turn out to her liking she could easily secure a divorce. This was in New Jersey. The more we see and hear about divorces the more pleased we are that South Car olina does not grant them. Wife a Business Partner. A farmer should remember that his wife is a business partner. She makes the butter, helps prepare things for market, is a watch dog fcr the prem ises when he is away, and assists with the poultry and garden: and when he secretly signs away money she has helped to earn, he is cheat ing his partner as well as robbing his wife; and it is an offence the law would not tolerate in any other con partnership, nor should it in this: There is a law which prevents a man from selling his farm without his wife's signature, and is sounds as if a wife was of some importance; '??it it is rendered non-effective as a preservative of her home from the fact that he can mortgage it. and en dorse other men's papers to any ex tent without her knowledge or con sent, and thus dispose of the family possessions?and the sheriff can sell, and she has no right, that he is hound to respect. This statute is a mock ery until it is supplemented by an other making a man's signature, as security invalid when written with out his wife's approval: and still an other making it illegal for him to mortgage the farm to pay debts that she has no knowledge of. (Jossipers and Tattlers. All gossipers and tattlers are bad enough, but deliver us from a woman who tattles, one who from envy and jealousy will attempt to blight the fair name of the woman who has been her companion, by making a house to house canvass, telling a taie here and one there, me thinks I can see the demon now, as she enters the home of the one she desires to in jure by unfolding her story, she com mences thus, "Oh, I have something (to tell you," but you must not re peat it, It was just told to me and must surely be true, it is about Mary Doe, or Jane Roe. Mother says It la awful, and that I cannot go with her any more." You can see the evil in this ta>t!'er now. She has made the first thrust, stabbed her young frien.l in the back with the piece of false news, and thus she makes her rounds from place to place, doing all the harm she can. Reflect about this aw ful habit of talking too much, and shun a tattler as you would a rattle snake. ? Took a Wrong View. Recently a man committed sulcld? b'cause he had, to use his own words, "tried to be a gentleman and failed. Probably the deed was prompted through a mistaken Idea of what constitutes a gentleman. H; doubtless thought that wealth and siclal position were essential. That, r f course, was the ancient condition, I I'Dt in these days and especially in' jur own land we have a different and truer conception of a gentlomaa. We sav with Burn?. "The rank is but the guinea stRmp." Today a gen tleman is a man of eourteoy, klsd i:ess and good life and breeding, and any man who tries can be that whether or not he has social po sition and wealth. As old Chaucer well put it even in his day, "He is g-ntil -Ihat doth igentil dedis." If there were less aping to be a gen tleman in the old accepted sense and more effort put forth to be a gen tleman in modern sense there would if fewer life failures and disappoint ments. The Commercial Standing of a Town. In a great measure the commei cial standing of. a town Is reckoned according to the number and value of its business enterprises; its mora. standing, according to the number anid power of its institutions, ex erting a good influence as opposed to those exerting a bad. These things being true, it should be the intent of the citizens of Orangeburg to encourage such new enterprises as tend in any way to make th'* place better; for a town is greatly what its citizens make it, nothing more and nothing less.
