THE MANIG TBLS Mrn. winig, B. Cd S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, Febru 26, 1890. THE FARKERS ALL RIGHT. Next Monday the farmers of this county meet in the court house, to elect delegates to attend the State Convention. This is an important meeting, and every farmer in the county, whether in sympathy with the movement or not, should endeavor to be present. Don't stay at home, and then grumble because things don't suit jou. Come to the meeting, dis CUsS any points that may be raised, and then if the majority decide that your views shall not be adopted, gracefully accept the situation. We hope to see a large attendance next Monday, and that every man wil come prepared to freely discuss the questions that may be brought up, One subject, and the most im porant, will be the election of dele gates to the State convention. Of course the best men will be elected delgates, and Clarendon county will be well represented in the State con vention. The farmers mean business; they think that abuses exist which can .4nd ought to be corrected; and we want to see them take the whole matter in hand. We believe they will prove equal to the task, and we want them to have a fair showing. Chicago has been selected as the place for holding the World's Fair in 1892. The pension appropriation bill re ported on Wednesday calls for $98, 427,46L This is more than all other governments in the world put togeth er pay annually for pensions. It is as miohasGermany'smagnificent stand ing army of nearly 500,000 men costs annually. It is, therefore, a burden of considerable weight, even for as roductive a country as this is. Think :ng persons will wonder whether it ds -to our efficiency as a military power, whether it does not impair our ability to carry on any future war. As we are still paying pensions on account of the levolutionary war that closed over a hundred years, we may expect to be paying for our civil war in 1970. One would think Congress would con aider the outcome of wild pension legislation, but it doesn't. It is intent on paying- the soldier vote for all coming time. "It does not make much difference -who is nominated. We can elect any body or we shall fail" So spoke Sen -a~zjpgalswhen the Republicans -were ngto select a candidate for :the Prsdncy in 1888. Gen. Harri -son Mi ua elected. He is President, an'The people who voted for him and worked for him are the sorriest people in the >ZUnited States. When he went to Pittsburg, last week, his reception wass cold as it well could be. Only one building was decorated in his honor, only one band played for him, and only one newspaper displayed a fag for him. . An evening paper, r'hich did all that it could to elect him in 1888, says: "If President Har rison's popularity is measured by the effect of his appearance in Pittsburg upon public feeling, it is painfully apparent that he is anything but first - in the hearts of his countrymen." Puck's last cartoon of Uncle Sam ex amnining President Harrison under a nicroecope is suggestive of the place that Russell Harrison's father will fill in American history. The "Car"~ Dog. SThere are good dogs certainly: but there Tare as certainly a vast number of the other kind. It is this later classtowhich acor -respondent of the New York Tribune refers. He says, and his figures seem high, but he prbbyknows: 'Thre was once a people who worshiped the eat. We sacrifice to the cur dog40,000, - ce sheep annually. What a noble creature mnust be this cur dog! These 40,000,000 sheep would supply all the wool we require; and, in addition to that from the sheep which the cur dogs kindly spare to us, would leave a good deal to sell abroad. What does our dog cost? Forty million sheep would produce $50,000,000 worth of wool and $50,000,000 worth of lambs. The eur dog, then, costs us in this way alone $100,000,000 yearly be -sides his food and the fowls and the egshe destroys, and the invaluable lives w -ich are lost by reason of his bite and the -dreadful hydrophobia.' We laugh to scorn the ancient peple who sacrificed to the neither hriess nor necessary cat, but we ourselves worship the savage, unrelenting do~nsacrince our sheep to its blood. Arrested for Robbing the Malls. Savmor Feb. 25.-At midday to-day A. S.Bteayoung wiemn hoclaims Marion, &. C., as his home, was brought be fore United States Commissioner Lamar to answer to the charge of robbing the United States mails. It tseems that the complaints concerning pcaes lost in the mails between Charles ton and Jacksonville have been numerous of late, and Inspector Wilde, Bethea's ac cuser, last night put a marked $1 bill in a package addressed to W. H. Tatum, Orange Park, Fla. Subsequent iqnres revealed the fact that the packet had disappeared. The inspector then approached Mr. Bethea, a railway mail clerk, in the presence of an other postal inspector and a third party, and after showing his commission, request e4 Bathea to hand over any money he had upon his person toa third party; and Bethea banded qver the marked $1 bill. When cornered,-Bethea said to-day that he merely put the money in his pocket for safe keeping, intending to register it and send it to Superintendent Terrill. This sto - .ry, however, does not tally with the state ments first made concerning other articles, having first claimed to have borrowed money in Charleston, and found the stud in Savan nah. Bethea's father has been sent for. Considerable theiving baa been going on between Charleston and Jacksonville, but Inspeetor Wilde says it will stop. County Convention of Farmers. Fazxwoon, Feb. 15, 1890. To the .Rrmers of Clarnndon County. Under a call issued by the executive comn mittee of the "Farmers' Association," I in ,ite the farmers of Clarendon county to meet in convention on sales day mn March, at 12o'clock, injthe court house, to elect del egtsto a State convention of farmers, to be held in Columbia, on the 27th of March. L. H. DusCEAMws, -ree. es' As..cin ofCarenon Co. In an Awful Fix. Finucane called in on Mike Leary's oldest boy, Tim, and found that broth of a boy palo about the gills, losing flesh, and the picture of despair. "Howdy, Tim, it's mutherin' ill ye're lookin!

Jordan. Buy at Home. We spent two days of last week in the city of Charleston, and while there took occasion to visit some. of the re tail dry goods stores on King street. We found them all elegantly and sys tematically arranged, and needing a few articles, took advantage of this opportunity to price some goods. We claim to have a little knowledge of the value and cost of goods, and there fore know when an article is offered cheap or not, and to cut a long story short we declined to buy, for we knew that we could do fully as wellat home, and save the epese and trouble of Whn we arrived home we decided to visit the mammoth establishment of Moses Levi, and see if our city conclusions were correct. We found him opening a tremendous stock of spiring goods, in fact the largest and best assorted stock of spring goods we have ever seen opened in a country town. We pushed our way through the piles of boxes that were blocking the way, in order that we might get into the store to examine the magnifi cent line of dress goods, white goods, satines of the very latest patterns, nainsooks, muslins. mulls.. lawns, etc.; also a handsome lot of laces, trim mings, and embroideries, a beautiful lot of ladies' furnishing goods. The clothing stock will do credit to a fash ionable city clothing store, as his spring suits are not only of the latest styles, but the patterns are simply grand. After looking through these we were shown Mr. Levi's pet depart ment, which he has taken perso~nal in terest and pride in filling with the best material that could be purchased by him in the market, we speak of the shoe market. He certainly has the nicest selection of ladies', gents', and children's shoes that can be found in this or any other town, and he claims to have bought them with a view to breaking np the complaints against the Manning shoe stock. We were also shown through the grocery department, which is attend ed by experienced clerks, and we feel assured that the people can find all they want in the grocery line in his store. After a complete examination we were satisfied that it paid us to bring our money back,.-and make our pur chases at home. We bought our goods and we are satisfied and have no hesitancy in saying that with the cash you can buy from Moses Levi as cheap as you can buy anywhere. Ancient Marriage Records.

GRATIFYING TO ALL The high position attained an d the uni versal acceptance and approval of the pleas ant liquid fruit remedy Syrup of Figs, as the most excellent laxative known, illustrate: the value of the qualities on which its suc cess is based and are abundantly gratifying HOUSEHOLD NOTES. MRs. S. A. NETTIs. Few persons ever think of the nu merous cares and demands that poor tired mothers have made upon them. Besides the numerous duties inci dental to housekeeping so much de pends upon the woman that the hap piness or unhappiness of a home is her work. If it is true that no nation can advance except through the im provement of the nation's homes, and they can only be improved through the instrumentality of women, how important it is that our girls should be trained to make homes comforta ble. Women who keep house and give their best thought and strength to making a house home, are not of ten called bread-winners, but these work for the good of the family and furnish nourishment for body, heart, and soul as truly as any father or brother can. The best things cannot be bought or paid for with money. We cannot hire love, sweet companionship, ten der watchfulness, and solicitude. Since these are beyond the reach of money, are better than anything that can be had for money, should not the woman who joyfully gives them be made to feel that half of the family income, as well as tender thoughtfulness and lov ing words in return, is rightfully hers, and that she is a bread-winner, indeed, for the best part of us? JAIAEt&E Dous.-Something novel and pretty for a sachet-bag is a Jap anese doll, about six inches tall, dress ed in the figured squares found in Japanese stores. The skirt is, in real ity, a large puf made of several squares sewed together, and, when finished, about ten or twelve inches in diameter. The skiit is filled with cot ton, sprinkled with sachet powder. Ribbons of any bright color ornament the waist, and a tiny fan is fastened in the doll's hand. Placed in a gilded parlor-chair, the doll appears to be sit ting down, and is considered quite the cutest and newest thing in parlor sachets. BoR.A IN THE LA.NDRY.-The excel lent washer-women of Holland and Belgium, who get up their linen so beautifully white, use refined borax instead of soda, in the proportion o one large handful of powder to aboutc ten gallons of boiling water. Borax, ( being a neutral salt, does not in the slightest degree injure the texture of the linen. Those who try this will be pleased with the result. It is also nice to wash blankets or woolen goods in this manner. USEFULNESs OF SArT.-If the chim ney catches fire run to the salt box and empty it upon the flames; they will be reduced as if by magic, and further steps can be taken to subdue the outbreak. If soot falls upon the carpet or rug, do not attempt to sweep until it has been covered thickly with dry salt; it can then be swept up properly, and not a stain or smear will be left. If anything happens to catch fire, either while cooking or otherwise, throw salt upon it at once to' prevent any disagreeable smell. BREAD FanrmEs.-Soak two cupfuls of stale bread crumbled into bits over night in a pint of milk. In the morn ing add two beaten eggs, and as much flour as will make the batter drop from a spoon. Sift a little baking powder through the flour. These may be made thin like pancakes if you pre fer, in wbich case add a handful of corn meal. Serve these with link sausages that have been split and broiled. This is an unusual way of cooking sausages, but it deserves to be better known. They are more digest ible, and quite free from fat. A few drops of orange juice sprinkled over them is a delicious addition.-Amer ican Agriculturist. CEANBERR SAUCE TO EAT WITHBAE CmcKEN.-To one quart of cranberries, looked over and washed, add one and a half cups of cold water; cover and stew until soft, add one and a half cups of white sugar, and cook five minutes; pour out in an earthen dish and when cold they will be solid.. EVmsisos AT HoME.-It is well for the women of the household to re member that the pleasant evenings at lf'ome are strong antidotes to the prac tice of looking for enjoyment abroad, and seeking for pleasure in forbidden places; for relaxation and recreation will be indulged in somehow by most men, and happy are they who find in the home circle the diversion they need. A lively game, an interesting book read aloud, or, in musical fami lies, a new song to be practiced, will furnish pastime that will make an ev-' ening pass pleasantly. A little fore thought during the day, a little pulling of wires that need not appear, will' make the whole thing easy; and differ ent ways and means may be provided for making the evening hours pass, pleasantly, and a time to be looked forward to with pleasant anticipations. - Woman's Work.
