Speaker Cannon's Friendship For Him
Evidenced At the President's
Reception.
A Washington dispatch to the
Greenville News says that Con
gressman Aiker. attended the big
reception given by President Roose
velt Thursday night. It was his first
visit, but courtesy demanded that
he should go to at least one of the
four big receptions given by the
President during the winter. These
receptions are attended by the Four
Hundred of Washington and the
cream of the official life of the cap
ital. Handsomely dressed men,beau
tiful women in the most fashionable
attire to be seen in the world, for
eign diplomats, with their bright
uniforms and their strange tongues,
the beautifully decorated and bril
iantly lighted roo-ns. the music of
the Marine band, all furnish a
measure of intoxication for the new
visitors.
Congressman Aiken was wander
ing around with Mrs. Aiken, point
ing out to his wife the men of
prominence when "UncleJoe" Can
non, speaker of the House, slapped
him on the shoulder in hearty style,
and said: "Hello, Aiken, this is a
great scene, isn't it? How are you
enjoying yourself? I am delighted
to see you out tonight."
"I am pleased to be present,"
said Aiken, in that hearty. frank
way of his, "but just between you
and me, Mr Speaker, I do not enjoy
this half as much as being with a
paity of the men and women of my
district. I've got the finest lot of
people in my district in the world,
and I'm never so happy as when
among them, talking with the men
about all sorts of things and with
the ladies about whatever pleases
their good souls to talk about."
"Well, Aiken, you are a philoso
pher, sure," said Speaker Cannon,
"and, confidentially, I don't mind
teliing you that I prefer plainer peo
ple and plainer things than this my
self," and the brainest Republican
in the House went on talking with
Aiken a long time. There is a de
cided friendship between the two
men, and Congressman Aiken will
probably find that the speaker will
be a valuable friend to him as he
continues to serve in the House.
Wo ian Masquerad d as aMa,.
Boise, Idaho, January x6. -A re
markable case of a woman mas
querading as a man has been dis
covered at Rockville, in the Wes
tern part of the State near the
Oregon line. A few days ago Joe
Monoghan, a well known cowboy.
died suddenly on Succor creek in
Oregon. When the body was be
ing prepared for burial it was lound
the deceased was a woman. She
had ridden the ranges of eastern
- Oregon for twenty-five years and
was well known as an expert, faith
ful, untiring cowboy. She was.
- about ?4 years old and had served
on juries, and voted in all i:lections

Cor. Augusta Chronicle.
The contest for chairman of the
board of dispensary directors was
preceded by a warm campaign. For
nights there have been caucuses of
all kinds and of all degrees of heat.
Col. H. H. Evans, of Newberry,
was opposed by Mr. J. A. McDer
mott, of Horry. When it came
down to the vote Evans won in a
canter. On the first ballot the
election was secured, Evans get
ting ninety-nine votes and McDer
mott fifty-six. It was an easy
thing for Hub Evans. He is a very
popular man and known from one
end of the State to the other. He
is of a genial robust disposition,
I shakes hands like a whirlwind and
talks in loud, cheerful tones. He
knows all about the dispensary,
having served several terms as a
member ot the board of directors.
When seen right after the race Mr.
Evans was jubilant and as he
grasped the hands of his friends,
shouted:
"Why, he didn't more than toe
weight me, did he? Just steadied
me down to my gait, eh?"
Mr Evans and his friends, who are
nurmerous, are well pleased at the
great victory, which is quite a com
pliment to the winner, for Mr. Mc
Dermott is himself a strong man.
The Value of Politeness.
If those who are doubtful as to
the correct course to pursue in any
given situation will remember that
even the wrong thing is overlooked
if one is but absolutely polite in the
doing of it, their relief might be
great.
A gentleness of demeanor and a
courteous response or question can
never be out of place. A man may
wear a business snit of clothes to an
evening wedding less noticeably
than a truculent air of insolence. If
he be perfectly well bred as far as
behavior goes, it matters not so
much what his outward garb, al
though by an unwritten law of
social observance certain clothes are
the correct thing for the certain
occasions.
.Voliteness is never wrong. Its
practice goes nearly all the waN
toward the goal of the right thing
in the right place. We hear of polite
insolence. but insolence is never
polite, and it is never under any~
circumstances polite to be insolent
Hot Water For The Nerves.
In these latter days people have
discovered that hot water is a great
cure all for tired or strained nerves,
when such condition is not caused
by disarrangement of some of the
vital organs
Hot water is a tonic to a weak
stomach and a soothing remedy to
aching, heavy eyes. Applied to the
nape of the neck as hot as it can be
borne, with a sponge, it gives a most
delightful feeling of rest to the
nerves. WVhile a hot splash to the
lace iollowed by cold water gives a
delight tul and healthful glow to the
most p>allid cheek, together with toi
most co:-"table sensation of fresh
ns uarm water with a dash ot
slt is a mi,,t valuable remedy for
id e-se, and is recommended by
mayv ii icianis for various diseases
