County Teasurer Wells is not- overly ushed with the collection of taxes just ow. and the indications are that he vill not have to write many receipts f efore Christmas, as everybody is wait ng hoping they will be able to get bet er prices for their cotton, those who < aye no cotton are waiting because the f 3w price of cotton is a popular excuse.

Josie Sprott, President. Invitations have been received in lacon to the marriage of Miss Annie railsford of Orangeburg, S. C., to Mr. dward Foreman of this city, the wed ing to take place at the home of the ride's parents in Orangeburg. Novem er 1. Miss Brailsfordl is a beautiful irl, and comes from one of the first of he Carolina families.

The farmers everywhere are exper- 0 mcing a dearth of laborers, cotton is otting in the fields, wood for the win r promises to be scarce, house ser ants are hard to get, and wherever iere is need for manual exertion help t ; hard- to secure, the little that is ob Lined is of an inferior kind, notwith ianding these conditions there are r iany able bodied men and women in a lleness. How can this condition be d emedied? We read in the newspapers b f the conditions being similar every rhere, there must be a cause for it. so, what is the remedy? There is no better way to increase e ties than to appear in the prints of e county newspaper. this is the opin- - mn of active merchants, and results X ave fully demonstrated the benefits. e 'he C. M. Davis & Son store at Davis t tation is one of the largest in the V ounty, and they carry a tremendous % ock of general merchandise, the man- 0 gement has decided to extend the I )ecial sale to run all' through the I B ionth of November; their stock of IT oods will be sold to conform to the - resent prices of cotton, besides they re offering valuable prizes as an extra tducement to attract buyers. ft The town board of tax assessors have S aen together in solemn conclave, and bat they did to some of the property wners was a plenty. We hope they d ave not discriminated. Their work ill be looked well into on Friday by ie board of equalization, ant, while o is board is hearing the protesis of iose who have been raised, the prop ty of those left untouched will be fa ympared with that raised. The pur- i1 ise of the act authorizing the town to h ;point a board of assessors, was to put E ie property of this town on the oks in proportion to its value, but to revent discrimination. We hope this o is been done. The indications are that November S th, will be a great day in Manning ithe prejectors of the monument j ovement are receiving encourageing S .omises of a large attendance. From ery section of the county the people e awake to the imoortance of having ~ 1 sections well represented at the n urt hbuse on Monument Day, the P dies especially are interesting them- " des, and when this is the case sue- ti Ms is assured. Senator E. D. Smith a id Colonel James Armstrong, and S ~rhaps others will be here Ito en :rtain the crowd. Senator Tillman ill come if his health permits, he is xious to be present to lend his voice Sthe laudable object and to, inspire e people with those patriotic senti- -3 ents which should prompt them to ild a monument to the memory of s' te confederate dead.- b 0 The Boys Corn Show The attendance at the corn show here s st Saturday was somewhat curtailed n y the weather, nevertheless the ex- n ibit was good. Representatives from n .ght clubs had 34 ten ear exhibits, h ong them being a little 12 year old q irl, Miss Mary Rich bourg. The prize o iners by clubs were as lollows: Trin- ta y, Willie Young; Deep Creek, W. D. olladay; Paxviite, Alvin Poole; Man- - ing, Allen Williams; Turbeville, Cur s Vasser: Sardinia, Landon Cousar; ilson, Robert Bagnal; Davis Station, [iss Mary Richbourg. For the best ten ears the winners ere: 1st, Landon Cousar, Sardinia; 2nd, E illie Young, Trinity; 3rd, Robert Bag ii, Wilson. Willie Young won the gold medal for 'riting the best story of how the crop 'as made.

Miss Mary Richtourg, Davis tation; 3rd, Clyde Johnson. Wilson. s' No decision was reached as to who a ad the greatest yield, as a number of 3e boys have not had time to gather ueir corn, but the best yield so far re-u orted is 95 bushels. The winners of h rizes for the largest yield will be made nown later. Professor C. B. Haddon Clemson. Countyv Superintendent of ucation E. J. Browne and A. G. ~ hite were the judges. d Much interest is manifested in this t ounty by the boys and the prizes given 'ere furnished by the merchants of fanning who always give generous aid s' y farther a worthy cause. Attention Teachers. I should like to direct the attention fthe teachers of Clarendon county to r be splendid Teachers' Manuel for the u :lementary Schools of South Carolina ecently prepared by Prof. WV. K. Tate ' the University of South Carolina. It - San illuminating book, sound in peda 'ogic principles, and full to the brim of a .elpful suggestionus to teachers in every rade of public school work. It is vital i d vivid and moisern in its presenta ion of the various subjects that rre aught. in the elementarg grades. If he teachers will read and re-read and igest the contents of this book it will oon bring about a marked advance in he educational progress of our county. 'hat part of the Manual w: ' h deals ~ nith reading in the schools should at ' nce command our earnest considera- C ion. We, as teachers, recognize the I act that few of our pupils read intehi ertly and attractively. It is our duty C o seek for the cause of this glaring de- C ect and to remove it as soon as possi le. All of the other subjects treated t f in this book should be taken up and tudied delligently without delay. Jxo. C. DANIEL.

A Startling Lecture. .Mr. J. M. Barrie has given us a S avhimsical description of Professor liampbell Fraser, the famoug author a nd dramatist having been at one time k one of the professor's pupils. "I see e him rising in a daze from his chair," says Mr. Barrie, "and putting his hands through his hair. 'Do I exist,' he said thoughtfully, 'strictly so call ed?' The students looked a little star tIed. This was a matter that had not previously disturbed them. Still, If the professor was in doubt there must be something in it. le began to argue it out, and an uncomfortable si!ence held the room in awe. If he did not exist the chances were '.hat they did not exist either. It was thus a per sonal question. It was no wonder t that the students who do not go to a the bottom during their first month of - metaphysics begin to give themselves airs, strictly so called. In the privacy - of their room at the top of the house they pinch themselves to see if they are still there."-Pearson's Weekly. - Wonders of a Bqgk. There is perhaps no greater wonder than a book. By the help of little figures upon spins or paper men have been able to transmit their thoughts through thousands of . years. The names and shapes of things, the deeds and sorrows that have occurred as far back as Adam, have been made known I to us. Even those invisible and ab stract thoughts which have no shape or substance. but which inspired the - writer and have since Inspired others, are all put down In the little letters and made eternal. The songs of David, the speculations of Plato, the visions of Homer, have by these means been handed down faithfully for many cen turies and distributed among man kind. If there were no books our knowledge would almost be confined to the limit of sight and hearing. All that we could not see or hear would be to us like the inhabitants of the planet Saturn-a mere matter of idle conjecture.-Barry Cornwall. Mother at Prayer. Once, says a writer, I suddenly open ed the door of my mother's room and saw her on her knees beside her chair and heard her speak my name in pray er. I quickly and quietly withdrew with a feeling of awe and reverence in my heart. Soon I went away from home to school, then to college, then into life's sterner duties. But I nev er forgot that one glimpse of my moth er at prayer nor the one word-my own name-which I heard her utter. Well did I know that what I had seen that day was but a glimpse of what was going on every day in that sacred clos et of prayer, and the consciousness strengthened me a thousand times In duty, in danger and in struggle. When death came at last and sealed those lips the sorest sense of loss I felt was the knowledge that no more would my mother be praying for me. Court Fools. Court jesters were either misshapen, half Imbecile midgets, whose senseless remarks were welcomed with laughter; quick witted, half mad fellows or poor, merry poets who devoted themselves to the task for the Income which it brought. It was their business In medieval times to s'ntertain kings and nobles with amusing sallies. One of the early French jesters was Mathurine, a woman. English jesters made use of calfskin coats, which buttoned down the back and protected them from the anger of those who were provoked at their sa tirical thrusts. A fool's cap was adorned with three asses' ears and a cock's comb and worn on a shorn head. He had a wide collar, carri"'d a scepter, and his cos tume and cap were decorated with bells. Animals That Smoke. The writer was extracting solace after the petty worries of the day from his well seasoned brier when it was suddenly revealed to him what sort of creature he really was in an extract he happened across from a work on "The Common Use of Tobac co:" "There are but three kinds of animals which generally use tobacco the rock goat of Africa, whose stench is so Insufferable that no other anma1 can approach it; the tobacco worm, whose intolerable visage gives to ev ery beholder an involuntary shudder," and the third animal-which Is he} London Chro~uicle Largest .Crystal of Beryl. It remained for a Turk, wandering far from his native land, to find the largest crystal of beryl (aquamarine) ever discovered, a long distance inland In Brazil. It was dug out at a shal low depth, transported by canoe to the coast and finally sold at Bahia, bring ing the finder, it Is said, $25,000. Ac cording to estimates, this crystal would furnish fully 2,000,000 carats of aqua marines of various sizes.-Argonaut. Life's Three Questions. The three great questions of life are: "Is it right or wrong? Is it truo or false? Is it beautiful or ugly?" These our education should help us to an swer, and insomuch as It fails it will lack in reaching a proper physical or moral standard.-Harper's Bazar. Clam Shells. Clam shells are susceptible of a fine polish and are used for many orna mental purposes. Chinese carve them into snuffboxes, tops of walking sticks, bracelets and similar articles.

Every foi;eign.ofit e of Europe a en the theory that an army of spic. constantly on the alert to steal secrets. and Infinite precautions taken to baille their efforts. Vi shortly after the first use of blott paper It was discovered that It v quite possible to cause a blotting [ to give up jealously guarded seer by simply holding it in front of a n ror. Long after all the commerc world had forgotten the existence such a thing tjie British foreign oi used a sand shaker to dry its imp tant written documents. Then s cially manufactured black blotting; per was used, but this was not foU to be absolutely spy proof, and a turn to the sand shaker was conte plated when some one suggested i simple expedient of a small absorb( roller. These rollers have since bc used for drying diplomatic documen When such a roller has been run and down and across a document or or twice the cleverest spy in the wa is at liberty to try his hand at i ciphering the impressions. Two Visiting Cards. Visiting cards differ In style accoi ing to latitude, and as an example Paris contemporary recalls an lncidc in 1844 when M. de Lagrene was sE under Louis Philippe as minister 4 traordinary to China. The courtesy the ambassador greatly impressed t Chinese statesmen, particularly th "doyen." When the negotiations h been completed and M. de Lagrene i ready to embark a delegation broug him a great roll of paper. The ambi zador seeing this parcel at once thour this was a present, knowing Chin( methods, but to his surprise thty sta ed to unroll the cylinder, which exter ed to about fifty meters of paper, o% .62 feet. Then he learned that it n the visiting card of the "doyen." returning his modest little bris board the humiliated ambassador aM ed a few words, which read, "The a bassador of France regrets that he able to offer only these simple woi to your excellency." The Building of Homes. Dwelling houses may be construct of anything from paper to concrete. When bguilt of paper they consist ground plans, front elevations a mortgages. When they progress something more substantial they not resemble in any way the front e vation or the ground plan of the par stage and are therefore disappointi in these particulars. The mortgai however, always comes up to expeci tions. The houses of the elect m be distinguished by the butler's pt try, the middle classes by the rect tion hall and those of the hoi polloi the parlor. Houses are useful to in, sleep in, bathe in, dress in, hide be seen in. die in, store junk in. sure and burn down. Dignity houses Is typified by a parking closed English country place, roman by a southern planter's mansion, poet by a rose embowered cottage and t mor by a modern flat.-Life. Serpents and Music. Barnard concludes from his pers< al observation of cobras in Ceyl( says the Scientific American, that I serpent's traditional loae for mu is a pure fable and that the only feet of music is to arouse the reptil uriosity, which is excited by any lo and acute sound. The cobra protrud ts head from its burrow alike on he: Eg the snake charmer's flute, the r: tlng of a chain and the sounds ma by beating tge ground with a swit< It appears to perceive only sounds high pitch, for it pays no attention the low notes of the flute or the be: Ing of'the drum. Barnard also cc firmed, in Ceylon, the results of< servatons made In the London zool< ial garden on the supposed power fascination exerted by serpents up birds, and he -concludes that this pa er of fascination Is also pure~ly int mnary.
