"We notice from the Anderson Intel- ( ligencer that one of the banks of An- < tierson?the Farmers and Merchants? ' has offered to lend money to young ; men on easy terms and long time and ' at a low cost of interest to encourage ( tine young men of the county to raise i hogs. The money is to be used in the 1 purchase of hogs to begin the raising 1 and the bank will lend money on the j* same terms to young farmers who are j, I ' "willing to engage in cattle raising, j We take it for granted also that the < 'bank will let this money to the young men without endorsement and without a long string of mortgages because 1 otfne-rwise it would not be of much ( ! ] li lp. It is to be loaned oil the per- j , _ sonal integrity and manhood of the j \ young men who are to engage in hog j ?nd cattle raising and for the pur- !1 ix>se of encouraging such industries, j 1 That is the spirit our money insti- ( fcutions should exhibit. It is worth c more to the county and the building < of Hh<e farms than supervisors and j agents of any or . all sorts. In addilion to the financial help and the en- j < couTagement which it gives to the 1 young farmers of Anderson county, J there is another side to the proposition if it is as we understand it, that the money is loaned on the individual integrity of the*young farmer. It will give him to understand that his individual integrity* and manhood is an asset and a valuable one and that is a lesson he should learn early in life and it will be worth much alway. We have gone so far in the direction of 1 not being willing to trust any one that ' the idea is prevalent that the only thing tfiat counts is material?money or its equivalent. , Here is the- proposition of this bank j and the plan is worth while consid-| <e>ring by other financial institutions. It is better than prizes or gifts. It helps the young man to start and j gives him encouragement and oppor- i tunity. That is wnat we neea, encouragement and opportunity. "In order to encourage hog raising in Anderson county, The Farmers and Merchants bank will be pleased to loan money to young farmer boys to buy a pair of hogs of good strain of , Wood and in this,way enable you to;, make a beginning at raising hogs. We j will also be glad to aid you in getting f. cattle of good stock to raise from. We,. will also aid you as far as wre can in j. finding and purchasing the hogs and j: cattle. 'Wie will loan you this money j at a very moderate rate of interest, j', The business if properly looked after . will be self-sustaining in a little while 1 and then will become a source of 3 profit" . i The Farmers and 'Merchants, bank ? of Anderson doesn't know that The i Herald and News is going to mention 1 this plan. We notice tfae cashier is < a Mr. Brownlee. He is going along , the right line. i 1 <$> < ? THE IDLER. i <$> <$> ] <$><$<$<$><?><$><$<$><$><$><$> 4> <$><$><$><$> 4> i I have had something to say from time to time art>out the dog muzzling ordinance, and tried to impress tfre j importance of its enforcement, but it s has seemed to me to be all unavailing, j I read the other day in one of the mag- ; / azines a few lines which may explain * it all, and I am going to pass them on ] up to Mayor Wright. It may be that j he and Chief Duncan (have been try- [ ing to reverse the sentiment expressed 1 in the few lines I am passing up. They i may have been busy trying to stop tfte gossips that are going, and not having time to muzzle the dogs, have let them pass on up. Now, if they are really doing that I will excuse them temporarily on the dog muzzle ordinance, because if a mad dog should get loose and bite some one it could only hurt the physical being, but these gossips that "go" make their attacks on the character and good name of all our people and try to injure, often without the slightest cause or the least provocation. But here are the lines I had in mind when I began this paragraph: "Pray tell us, you who make the laws? , We'd dearly love to know? \ Wry should we muzzle all the dogs And lei the gossips go?" Yes, ti"e gossips are like what th< Bible says about the proverbial poo ?I believe it was the Bible?if no may be some other good book?th poor ye have with you alway?am the gossips, yea, we have them al way and they are always busy?tna sweet little morsel they love to rol under tfreir old tongues, and the won der is that their tongues do not ge sore, but, you know, I rather enjo: these creatures?they are amusin; and are here for some good purpose or they wouldn't be. So when I rea( the following line from a sinner'! iiary the other day I decided it wa: best to live on and be cursed rathe: than die off and be mourned, because Lhey cease mourning in this day s< soon that it wouldn't last long an-: way. But fc^re is the nugget of wisiom from tfae diary of a sinner: "Sc :ake your pick?die off and De mourned, or Ike on and be cursed." I read the following?I think it was n the News and 'Courier?the othei lay. I am quoting it to give the dea: readers of this column the epitaph ind it is well to know who the write: s: (Walter Malone, wfro leaped to naional celebritf a number of years age i*ri+.v rnfo rvrwsm "Onnortunitv." wril "iUii *0 '-'X'X - , :en in answer to the brilliant bu;ynical lines of Senator Ingalls, ii lead. He published several volumes >f verses and wrote numerous r.horl stories, hut by pro'es&ion he was a awyer and for ton years ii*r; beer )n tfie bend'n in Mississippi. His ?pitaph, penned by himself a sbori ;ime before his death, is worthy to b< anked among the best of its kind: 'Stranger who passetb my low hous* of clay, "Do?^-a o mattipnt in a tendei JL CfcUCTCT 1VA ? mood; Think not your sigh of pity throwi away, Because I'd say 'God bless you' if could." And I have quoted the epitaph be ;ause of tiie last line wfaich I desir< specially to emphasize and commend Why couldn't we all say in its tru< and full meaning, "God bless you, while we are in the possession of ou: rational faculties?that is, of course those who have rational faculties You know I believe that some of u T-oaiiv nnt rational all the time? tu - - tuat is we have irrational periods an< moments when we are not in the pos session of ?11 car faculties. That i tJbe only rational explanation of tl:< lets of some people, and I always tr; to bo charitable in my judgment o men. By the way, I 'parsed along the pub lice square th? other day?that i away over on the side of it?and i roomc- +n mn thot T ootv tlia oavt honl tv 1UV LlllAt X cu 11 kiiv VM.1 V ilMUt ing away some fertilizer wrhich iiai been placed there, as I understood, t< fertilize s^me flowers that ti:e civi< assciation Ihad permission to plant oj the front entrance, so that it woul< be sweet and pretty anu^inviting jus like the entrance to the south side and I wondered what it all meant and I have not yet understood. Surel; there can be no one so far short in tin possession of the aestibetic spirit?i: that right??or so lacking in tJb< sense of the beautiful and of sym rnetry as to object to tfte planting o Sowers or to object to anything lik< that. I hope not. Now that th< minorities have so beautifully and ii such a sweet spirit followed my ad rice to do away with burr clover anc :o have the lawn mowed I Wrould re ?ret to think for a moment that an: >ne would object to the planting o sATTifl "hoa.ntifiil fl/va-ars ati thp frnn plat. There is something soothing am elevating in the flowers that grow. The editor brought me a message from John Mayes which surprised me md in which I am sure the editor ii mistaken, because Joftn wouldn't sa: anything like that, but here it is 'Tell The Idler if foe wants the grasi mowed on the Methodist lawn on aoith side to go out there and mow i iiimself." Now, that doesn't sount Like John. And I didn't mean an; harm when I wrote win at I did abou it. I was only trying to offer a friend ly sugesstion?that' all. Still I woul? like to see and know that John dii mow tihe grass like he used to do an how pretty he did keep that lawn, i is pleasant to state. But them Bap tist, they just come out and mowe their lawn beautifully until, they go down to that '.Means grass or corn, don't know which, and I reckon the don't know, is the reason it is lefi T a-*'~ ?? 1 on ViArtfJ 11 r?

Smith is our senator now, But for eight-cent cotton the farmer must dig and plow. Yet they seemed as happy as could be As they shouted "Ed Smith is the man for me!" Ed Smith is back in Washington, Eut toe poor old farmer he has forgotten ; Yet he promised them wnen ne stumped the State Eight-cent cotton would not be our fate; But he made a mistake as sure as you're living, For right around eight is what they're giving. Senator Smith can laugh and howl, And the poor farmer can kick and growl; Hard times, hard times is all we can see, And Senator Smith is not the man for me. Cole. L. Blease, you are just and true, And we are sorry we did not vote for you; We firmly believe upon the honor of a man You are as noble as in the land, And if from earth we pass not away We will vote for you in a coming day; And if we do depart this life, We will meet you where there is 110 strife, For a man like you, with a noble fceart, Will not from his God depart. \ Haltiwanger lurn a i u LiViru. nent W New Things in Every article in our milline gisting of wings, flowers, poi ties, reduced to about half tl us first, we lead on Millinery.
