Brother Charles has tapped his barrel and from now on the fight for the Ohio senatorshJp 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 vr.duly influenced by the Sultan, ought to work out the political and social salvation of 'that distracted country and bring poace 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 Miat so soon as a man stains himself he seeks to rub it off against church pews and pure Sunday school children? When a fanner gets it into his "noggin" good that the farmers, properly organized, can fight "the world, the flesh and the devil," he will enjoy more of the good things of this li"o 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 xo know if the gen liraian is frying to break into the cabinet without being asked? It is ?. wi?e person who looks ahead and plans accordingly. It prevents that worry and confusion which is always the experience ol th-iso who leave things to the last r:iimite a id who by so doing disap point themselves and other by tho inperfect character of their work. Congress has'spent two or throe weeks without doing any harm, an I now that the members have gone home for the holidays, which every ol< hones they will enjoy, is it too much to expect that they will make the new year resolution to do some effective work when they get bask to Washington? The Augusta Herald says: "Since Senator Tjllman does not play golf and Mr. Taft does not play sinnny. perhaps when Hen comes to see Big Bill in Augusta they will find poker a game that both can play?" Ben Tillonan does not play poker anfl if Mr. T 'ft does, he should quit since be has been elected President. A >ar . .'i;:ph is going the rounds ahoul a -rirl riving from tight lacing. We agree with an exchange that these corsets should be done away with and if the girls can't live with out being squeezed, as ohLas we are. we'd rather devote three hours a <1ay. wiMiout a farthing of pay. as a substitute corset, than s<<?ing 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 prntulrried on being rid of him. and ?t the new government acts wisely its affnris. both internal and external will shew rapid improvement. Whefher v?u talk with you? neieh'ior or stranger at home or abroad, riding or walking, always have a sined word for your town. Sneak of the beautiful homes, the nice sSr< ?K rhe excellency of the surrodm Mn? country and the intel ligent.- > ? ifernriso of your neigh bors Ftpnd by your town through ?v; i.- rHgn -,s you would stand by yonr h ? f-rond in times of distress an 1 y >u v Ml find it prosperous and thriving, as never before.

Such a town vt us all strive to make Or Another Mile Stone. We will soon pass another mile stone on our way to eternity, and as we grow older it seem';, that we trav el from one of thesis mile stones to another faster .than we did in our youth. Over <the gateway of an En glish cakit5h 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 the year make us feel that1 in some measure we are as shadows creeping ovUr the face of time. And yet it ought to be possible for us lo answer 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 othhlrs, doing the 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 hj'i may rejoice that he has had some share, however humide, in helping the world to be better. In truest [ sense the man who does that is far mon.' 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 jovs and sorrows. Some homes have l?len visited by the Death Angel and the chair of a lov ed one iip vacant, but let us be not east down. Let us enter the New \eitr resolved to do the best in all ;::ies 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, r.s is claimed by some, that divorces aic excusable on tho ground that they make for better domestic conditions in a few instances, yet it cannot be dei ied that divorce is far too rrf ouent and that some reform is nee ed In the States where they arc panted. Probably what, is most needed is a higer conception of the marriage state and fewer injudicious nw.rriages. In the States where tv divorce habit is indulged in main people enter upon the marriage re lation who are altogether unfited er unprepared for it. Then, too, many necple in divorce States seem to I? ok upon marriage as almost a Joke or a piece of fun, and they learn by sad experience in most cases ri-.K truth of the old adage, that "those who marry in haste repent at leis ure." The horseplay and frivolity ofren witnessed at weddings also Is 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 move pleased we are that South Car-j 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 for 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 inc his partner as well as robbing bis 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 so ne importance; '-?it ii 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 slmriff can sell, and she has no right tliar he is bound to respect, 'liiis statute is a mock ery until it is supplemented by an other niiiking 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. dossipers and Tattlers. All gossipers and tattlers are b:id 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 pee 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 Ito tell you," but you must not re peat it. it was just told to me and must surely be true, It is almut Mary Doe. or Jane Roe. Mother says it is awful, and that I cannot go with her any more." You can see the evil in this tattler now. She has made the first thrust, stabbed her young frien t in the back with the piece of falre 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 suicid? !> -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 social po?itlon were essential. That, rf course, was the ancient condition., but in these days anC especially in jur own land we have a different ?:'d truer conception of a gentleman. We sav with Burn?. "The rank is bnt thf guinea stamp." Today a gen tleman is a man of courtesy, kind ne-ss 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 that 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 \f fewer life failures and disappoint ments. The Commercial Standing of a Town. In a great measure the commer cial standing of. a town is reckoned according to the number and value of its business enterprises; its mora. Standinjg, according to Die number and power of its institutions, ex erting a good influence as opposed U) 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.
