The quickest way for a plain or dinary consumer to acquire fame I seems io be to take hunting trips j along the track of Polar explorers. It. is. pretty hard to. go into poli tics.on- a .strictly honest basis and yet acquire wealth. Gov. Johnson's estate, of only $18.000 indicates this.

The Savannah Press says a Savan nah man, when asked *vhat kind of engine he had in his motor boat, said, he .called it "Supreme Court" because it reverses itself so often.

This look.* tike a poor judicial system, but it | would have its advantages. It would toed to make people save money by settling disputes out of court. In view of the difficulty of sending wireless messages 8,000 miles to Hurp.oe, the idea of wireiess talks with Mars 35.000.000 miles away seems , to have no significance out elde tbe. columns of newspaper humor! New York, says the Augusta Herald,' Is to spend $100.000 for a school to cure boys of badness. Such a sum invested in the proper medicine would cure the badness of all hoys except those who are bad beyond the hope of redemption. There are two classes of mer chants who aro going to have all sorts of trouble succeeding. One is the fellow who does not believe in the value of printer's ink and the other is the one too religious to use advertising in Sunday newspapers. The Jacksonville Times-Union says.the South now leads the North iu the. consumption of cotton, and the entire nation loads the world. n?arter 0{ a century more cot ton will be manufactured in the South than in all the balance of the world combined.

The splendid tribute of Everett ?. Hill, editor of the New Haven Reg ister, to Jefferson Davis, which was published in The Times and Democrat last week, has been received through out the South with sincere apprecia tion. The News and Courtier, in .commenting'on Mr. Hill's tribute says: It was, as we have said, the finest utteoance that hab been spoken ' by any Northern newspaper since the war, and it has touched a deep chord ,in the Southern heart. We have not been surprised at the reception of the Yankee "editors' tribute in the South; everybody down here would like to think that "the past is with the eternal past," that here is' no longer any cause of misunder standing, that the time is over for crimination and recrimination, that j we know each other better and love one another more. We have been somewhat disappointed, however, that there has been so little response from Northern newspapers and states men to the heartsome sentiments of our New Haven friend. But we arej very much gratified by a letter from Mr. Hill, in which he tells us that only one of bis many readers has openly resented what he said about Mr. Davis, and to his mind this is " a proof of a most encouraging change of sentiment in New England, an indication of a tendency to turn and do justice." ' That we are emerging from the mists of the' unhappy past is proved by many striking incidents in recent years. The soldierly conduct of Colonel Turner, of the First Illinois Infantry, in firing a salute over the graves of the Confederate soldiers Juried in Wdodlawn. Cemetery, Chica go, against the almost violent pro tests of some of the irreconcilables, was really the first gun in the fight for a better understanding between the sections, and it has been follow ed by many advances on both of the old sides in recent years. We have received a letter from the Rev. W'illiam P. F. Ferguson, editor of The National Prohibitionist, of Chica go, in which he says: "I think the people of the North?ninety-five per cent of them?heartily agree with the sentiments expressed in the New Haven Register." Dr. Ferguson says further: "I fancy that even the best informed people of the South very little understand how nearly univer sal is the kindly feeling of the North, and how nearly dead and buried is the old hatred for Mr. Jefferson Davis."' i Last May Dr. Furguson preached a very striking sermon on Decoration Day in Cincinnati. Among other things he said in this sermon: ""It seems to me that the time has cbme When we cannot only call 'those who remain of the great army that wore the Grey, brothers, and they in turn can stretch to us the brother's hand, but when, as well, we j can exercise the broadest spirit of | brotherhood and kindness and honest, recognition of worth toward all who fought oh either side of that great struggle."' After saying that he had tuaght his sons to reverence the name of. Lincoln and to honor the gerat com manders on the Union side of the' war, Dr. Ferguson said that he had also taught them to admire the great! commanders of the South: "Stone wali" Jackson "as a devotee of truth as he believed it," and he had told them" the story of "the knightly, white life of Robert E. Lee," and ask-. ed no man's permission to "pause' with them beside the resting-place of Jefferson Davis and say: " 'Here lies a great American who was awfully miEtaken in his working , out of one of the fundamental prob-^ lern?- of American life, but who was unflinchingly faithful to what he be-' lieved to be the correct solution.1 Here lies as gallant a soldier as ever rode to battle, as kindly a friend as ever loved a comrade, a politician with hands absolutely clean of even the suspicion of a dirty deal.' " Dr. Ferguson says in his letter: "A year ago at the time of the North ern Memorial Day, we ran a poem on our first page which I adorned \ with the pictures of Lincoln and Da-1 vis, Grant and Lee, with appropriate quotations from each. Just two men. both of them very old men, among ail our thousands of readers made aby objections. This year I was<f &s>ked to deliver a Memerial Day sermon to one of the large Cincin nati churches. I did so and publish ed the sermon in The National Pro hibitionist. We had protests from one subscriber, he an old Federal soldier, who fell into the hands of guerrillas and underwent rather an uncomfortable experience, which he has had hard work to forget.' We are getting together at last, "with malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the rb/ht," .and our New Haven friend and fellow-countryraau could desire no higher honor than to be enrolled ? with the noble company of those' who are ? sincerely trying to live In1 the peace of God and for the good j of the State. Stay on tin; Farm. Very few will disagree with J. J. Hill about the evil effect of the con tinuous drift from the country to the city. It was hoped that the im proved social conditions now enjoy ed on the farm and the higher prices obtained for farm products would turn the tide or at the very least check the- flow, but the hope has not been realized. And yet ultimately it will come to that. Smaller farms, extensive and more intelligent farm ing with corresponding increased yield per acre, better roads and fur ther improvements In rural social life will, with the growing aculeness of the struggle for exlstance in the cities. lead to a better balancing of rural and urban popularity. Hail to the Chief. Americans are hard hitters in poli tics, but there is an underlying spirit of fairness which, altogether it mav be temporarily hidden in the heat of conflict, shows itself strongly on almost every occasion. This i? seen just now in special manner in the courtesies and welcome extended to President Taft in the visit he is making to different parts of the j country. Many may differ from him I on his expressed views on certain questions, but for the man himself and as chief magistrate of the nation there is nothing, but the most fondly feeling and people of all parties unite in extending to him a characteristic American welcome and hospitality. YARN'S REMEDY CURES Cures Backache, Lumbago, Bladder and Kidney Trouble, and Rheumatism. Branchville, S. C, Aug. 17. 1909. Charleston Drug Manufacturing Co., I Charleston, S. C. Dear Sirs: For a number of years I have been a great sufferer of Rheumatism and Backache. About two months ago I heard of Yarn's Rheumatic Remedy being fine, and a sure cure for Rheu matism and Backache, and I went to the WImberly Drug Co. at once and got a bottle. I have taken two bot tles, and I am proud to say that I am just as clear of Rheumatism and Backache as I ever was. I am 62 years old, and I consider this med icine wonderful to cure a man at my age.. You, nor any one else, can recommend It too highly. I consider It a great blessing to humanity that this remedy has been discovered. I gained six pounds while I was taking two bottles.
