These are, therefore, to cite and admonish all and singular the kindred and creditors of the said Mondy j Firms, deceased, that they be and appear before me in the court of pro bate to be held at Newberry, S. C., on Friday, February 4, next, after publication "hereof, at 11 o'clock in the forenoon, to show cause, if any they have, why the said administration should not be granted. Given under my hand this 19th day of January, Anno Domini 1916. C. C. Shumpert, LANGUAGE OF THE DOG Senator iMcLaurin Says it is Worth studying* i 0 nderson Farmers' Tribune. We attended the warehouse conference in Columbia Tuesday and Senator ; McLaurin snowed us this letter and it ! is so full of the sweet philosophy of life I and yet so redolent with a keen satire | worthy of Horace, that we begged him for a copy. We are studying "dog language'' hard, it goes well with the I water wagon. Master Waldo Banks, St. Matthews, S. C. My Dear Waldo: Your letter to hand. Yes; I will give you a dog?dogology beats all of the otner "olcgies." Latin and Greek are pretty good languages, needed to make a scholar, but you must learn dog language if you want to make a man. I never trusted a boy who hated dogs, and was always afraid of a girl who framed cats. Experience showed me 1 was right?the boy has made a rascal if he had a chance, and the girl an old maid because she had no chance. I have forgotten my Latin, but I can talk dog language better than I ever could in my life. That is why * i i _ j ? mi ? i .1 _ it is sucn a great sttiuy. me uiuex and wiser you get - the imore yoi need it. Mike and I wrote the warehouse bill. You know, a dog's master is his god, whom he loves with his whole being. Dog language teaches you to love your master, God, never to question. only to love Dog language teaches obedience and self-control, and. great est of all, courage and loyalty. Nothing is finer than a high-bred bull terrier's courage. It is intelligent courage, not blind like a bull dog's. A bull terrier uses his brains as well as his muscles. My dog, Mike, has a soul. He is fai more of a gentleman than most men 1 know, and much fitter associate foi angels than cowards, liars, hypocrites j and drunkards. Even the South Caro{lina legislature could learn something | from Mike's intelligence and energy He is always on the job, never adjourning over until LWonday night. ! makes me ashamed of myself. H< very often gives me severe lectures about fretting over trifles or taking the Lord's name in vain. If he keeps on, he may make me a real Christian I At the same time he is not a Bil Bryan grape juice sort of a dog. H< believes in "preparedness," and wher ! be catcfre? a strange dog around m: pasture he always practices "benevo lent assimilation.'' I can truthfully say, however, tha Mike is a high-toned Christian gentle man, because he lives up to his ideals He nearly ate a dog up while I wa: at home Christmas, and when I shamec him for fighting on !'hat day he cu me very short by saying that Chris was not born on Christmas day merel] * *? *?j- a . j 10 provide conn-on. a.uu seuunuy iuj cowards. I do not think Mr. Ford o: my cousin Andrew JBethea would like Mike, and I am sure Mike would noi care a cuss for them. Mike weighs sev-enty-five pounds and is as hard as iron. He is brav< t-.-j- ^11 K?w?tr< I out very genuti, as an icanj won things are. I saw "him throw a 1,500pound Kolsiein bull, and yet he wil run from a ewe with lambs. Even i sheep tries to fight for its young. Dc you know why Mike fought the bul' and ran from the sheep? The bul could fight for himself and the sheep was helpless. That is another thin^ | dog language teaches you. i Now, the puppy I spoke to you about is six months old. He is not a son of Mike, but from Columbia, and you know that city life is hard on the morals. He is dead- game, but Mike ] says he is something of a blackguard ; and a bully. 'Suppose you wait; I | have reason to believe that in about j six weeks t'ne stork will visit Mike and J Mrs. Nellie iMike with some beautiful : white puppies, and Marlboro puppies I will be better than Columbia puppies, j The air here is not as pure as in Marl boro, and the water has whiskey in it, and of course that hurts a decent dog just as it does a decent man. Your father and Mike are the best friends I nave, une or tnem is ine best man I know and the other is the best dog. Mike and I often talk about your father, and he and I talk about Mike. So, while they have never met but once., they feel well acquainted and entertain the most profound respect for each other. Dogs know. They just smell around a man a little and look at mm and size? him up. Mike says that your father ie a better man than I am, and I do not like that much, because I think a good deal of myself. But taat is the beauty of dog language; it doesn't let you fool yourself; it tells you the truth, and sometimes makes you feel small and mean. A man who has one real friend and one real dog is rich, Waldo; he has two things money can't buy, for a man who would I sell a dog like Mike could not raise a dog like Mike, he would be too mean. You see, you educate the dog and he, 1 Affairs of Amt To For I I Protest on Mail Interference < bargo Constitute Interesi Fighting Along French British in Serious "Vexatiously inquisitorial," "unwar l ranted interference" and "impress upon Sir Edward Grey the necessity for prompt action in this matter" are among the terms employed in the protest of the American government to Great Britain against her interference with neutral mails, the text of which has been made public by Washington. The tentative reply of Great Britain promises "before long" to state the j result of a consultation that is going cn between her and 'ner allies with respect to the policy to be pursued. Denunciation of the exportation of arms and munitions to the belligerents in the world war has been voiced in the United States senate by a dozen senators?Democrats and Republicans. , The debate, ,which followed upon the nrpqpnfatinn tr\ thp spnatp nf a. hnsre petition for the Organization of American Women for Strict Neutrality calling for t'ne enactment of embargo legis'ation seemed to presage that a vote may be forthcoming upon the embargo. 'The British labor congress while opposing by a large majority the provisions of the military service bill has defeated a proposal that the workingmen should agitate for its repeal. Walter Pamciaman, president of the beard of trade in the British cabinet, ' has informed parliament that in order to relieve the pressure on shipping and make room in vessels for additional imports of foodstuffs, fuel, munitions and other essentials restrictions 5 tgainst importations of certain articles ' will be put into effect by the gov> ernment. In an address read at the prorogation of parliament until February 15, ^ King George expressed in these words I f A At* V?"N i MO Ar? A f A AM AM ^ A A1 luxe uctwimudiiuu ui tuc tru.icn?? <ur I lies to continue the-war until victory ' | is achieved: % "We shall not lay down our arms, until we nave vindicated the J cause which carries with it the future a of civilization." i Considerable fighting has been takj ing place along the entire French - front. Berlin asserts that between 500 and 600 yards of French trenches were t stormed by the Germans in the uicin j uy or .Neuvnie ana mat ivrencn counterattacks were without result. In this region, the French assert, the Germans were driven from mine craters they had occupied and were repulsed in trying to recapture them; j while the British report the progres: sive occupation by their men of mine I* llll II?Wl!^? t educates you. It is rig'nt, but hardly fair to the dog, because he teaches you , more than you do him. But that is ? what God made dogs for, to help bad i men get to heaven. iTJiey guard and -1 protect men; but the dogs have a bard I time, Waldo, to keep weak men in the i straig'nt road. It is so long and the > sun is so hot. The flowers, green 1 grass and trees will tempt lis out of I the road. Then only a few ever get ) back and they are foot-sore and ; weary, something gone out of them, !Waldo, they are never the same again, HP O A Irrs Attrf ? 1 1 ^ ^ 4 1* r% A A I , j. \j.kj5 ivuvwo an Liic nine mat Uic i flowers are poison, the grass filled with snakes, and the trees with chattering monkeys. Every "sensible dog knows from a puppy that the only fit place is the hard road, hot stin and steady tramp to the journey's end. Dogs are wiser than men, Waldo. People who have never studied dog language call this instinct. But it is character, a man makes his own. That is why doss are steadfast and true I and men so uncertain and treacherous. When men learn the lessson from dog language, then God rates such men as "only little lower than the angels." Yo see, it is entirely possible I by self-denial and hard work to acquire a finer cnaracter than even a dog. I am getting to be nearly as good as your father and some day maybe, I will be as good aslMike. Your friend, John L. McLaurin. Mike is the senator's bull terrier. ^ J^^UVII?lMT40P0UNDSilpalr(lb.

While considerable fighting has been going on along the Russian front from ? Riga into East Galicia, no important results have been attained by either side. The same is true ajs to the Austro-Italian front, the Caucasus region and the Balkans. The British report that the Turks 'V.! have evacuated their trenches on the land side of the Rut-el-Amara defenses to about a mile from the entrenchments occupied by the besieged British forces. The report says there is no change in the situation of the British force moving u]j the Tigris to the relief of Kut-el-Amara. British possession of territory protecting t'ae Suez canal route at its southern end is imperiled by attacks made by large bodies of Arabs and Turks oil the British forces in southwestern (Arabia, according to advices from German sources. The British have been driven from all the territory they held in that section of the country and have suffered extremely heavy losses in t'ne fighting, the rei . , , ? . ports aecrare, xne ngures ireing givtm at-15,000 killed and 20,000 wounded. The implication from the Berlin dispatch carrying these reports is that the British army of 20.000 men is virtually cooped up in Aden, near the enI tranp.p of the "Red Sea. which must 'be held if the southerly approach to the Suez canal is to be protected. A situation quite similar to this was reported through German agencies several weeks ago, but London then announced officially that no apprehensions were entertained of the outcome of the operations which had been merely in the nature of skirmishes.
