And now the County Conventions have been held and I regret the fac tioual lines were drawn in most of tke sounties between Blease and Smith, but as such is true now let each faction io everything in their power in a straight forward, and honest way to win and when the election is over hich ever side wins let the other side ;a A.MEN. And not cry out' fraud and ask for in res.tigations etc.. for such accusations md demnds of the veople does not help to bring the people back together, ind it is a well known fact that one idc should b, any more entitled to vic ory than the other, for surely there nust be good men on both sides, no nan will dispute this. Some people have said they believed Mr. Jones, was elected Governor two 'ears ago, others have-said they be ieved the present. Governor's majority as far greater than ever declared to e, now neighbor right here the va easitv of several hundred men, who ;erved as managers of that election is loubted. Now as fair minded citizens of dear ld South Carelinalets believe any man an be honest in politics, as well as else vhere. let him win or lose. Two years ago when a man offered or office of any nature he almost was nade to declare himself for or against he present Governor, and was voted or accordingly. I had thooght this ear the declaration would be between Blease and an anti Blease man for overnor though it seems to still be yetween the Governor and his oppon mt, for the United State Senate. Now fellow ciizens why should the lelarations be required when a man tspires for political honors why not >u. him in the scales weigh his quali ications, and if found wanting by the lecision of a majority of the voters re .urn him to his home, and whoever neasures up to the standard let him e the servant of all the people, and >ot the boss of any man, and let no nan go in office accused of swinging to tn e ans coat-tail. At the present time so much is being aid about primary reform, until really [believe some do not know when they ill be allowed to vote or not, some nan has said a man could not vote in a rimarv election unless he paid taxes n $500~worth of property, in discuss g this proposition with one of moy riends the other day he said he paid axes on that much property but he ad two sons, and that he had never iven them their portion of the proper y, and that. he as father would not feel ike going and voting, and his sons de arred, I wonder right here how many >eople that are crying out primary re orm has seriously considerea the mat As to myself I know I do not pay axes on the amount of property men ioned, but I sincerely believe there Lre enough good men sent from the lifferent Counties to tie Convention, hat will allow every white man to rote, and those few who would require uch restrictions as tax receipts, hiding laces to fill out tickets, carbon sheets r stubs with the voters name signed, re so fe w and fatr a part. until they can >nly make a fuss a windaday with a flig ea~d line in a newspaper.

An Unexpected and Badly Needed - i Feast In the Arctic. PY Noah in his ark could not have been more delighted over the return of the dove than were the members of Ejnar ei- lkkelsen's party, in the desert of e- Greenland Ico. with the sight of a dock of wild geese. In "Lost In the - Arctic" Captain Mikkelsen tells- of their need of food, of the fatigue of a In 2 long sledge journey and of his own ill ness. He had become so weak that he a- was obliged to ride on the sledge. Con . sequently their progress was very slow. 1s We drive on between a lot of little islands or banks of glacial ice. Sud ir enly Iverson makes a snatch at the 1. sledge, causing the dogs to halt In as t tonishment, and whispers eagerly, 'Look, look! What's that?' He points f to something that looks like a lot of - round stones, and I can scarcely be A lieve my eyes. It Is a big flock of ,0 geese, sitting there sound asleep. They s have not heard us. In a few seconds Iverson is on his way toward them. r I of course remain where I am on the 1e sledge. d He takes aim, fires and the whole flock rises. Stop a minute! Isn't there i one on the ground? I snatch up the ). glass. Not one, but two are left upon i- the field, and after following the shriek - Ing flock a little way Iverson returns, d beaming with joy, a big fat goose In r either hand. We are delighted and q drive off southward in the best of r spirits. Iverson even stops every now e and then to feel the splendid fat bodies r of the birds, and we do nothing but r talk of what a feast we are to have r when they are cooked. The dogs are e doing their best. Iverson marches at e the rear of the sledge, singing at the r top of his voice, and even I feel a lit o tle better. POLAR RESEARCH. I. Arctic and Antarctic Problems That t Still Remain Unsolved. d The era of pole hunting is now hap s pily over, and the best result of Pea s ry's and Amundsen's athletic feats In the north and south Is that the really t Important problems of the circumpolar d regions can henceforth be attacked i- with a single mind. From a scientific standpoint enough work remains'to be 1 done in these regions to last for sev e eral generations. s The antarctic has only been scratch ed, so to speak. Owing to the diverse . scales used in school geographies the average man goes through life with badly warped Ideas concerning the rel s ative sizes of various parts of the Y earth's surface, and so probably few people realize that the antarctic conti nent is very much larger than Europe r -in fact, about as large as Europe and e Australia combined. Of this huge con s tinent we do not know even the shape a and location of the coast line, eXcept for one long stretch south of Australia e and a few widely scattered points else Y where, while the whole interior, apart from a narrow wedge between Ross f sea and the pole, is virtually blank on r our maps. In the arctic. a patch of a million a square miles is still absolutely un s touched. So much for mere surface ~geography; but, of course, modern p0 r lar research includes a wide range of nongeographical .problems pertining to such diverse subjects as geology, e glaciology,meteorology,terrestrial mag netism, seIsmology, oceanography, zool ogy, botany, physflogy, ethnology and f archaeology.-Review of Reviews. - Sure to Return. One morning a merchant whose goods did not very strongly substanti ate his advertising claims put out a new sign. He was pleased to see that a great many people stopped to read it, but directly he was puzzled and an gered to notice that they all went on, laughing. There was nothing funny about the sign. it merely read: - If You Buy Here Once You Wiln Come Again. The merchant went outside In a cas -ual sort of way and glanced at his sign to see what was the matter. Some one, no doubt a former customer, had added another line, It now read: If You Buy Here Once tYou WiU Came Again - To Bring It Back. 1 -Youth's Companio. 1 Colored Glasses. t Wearing spectacles to protect the teyes from the glare of the sun Is a very old custom. The natives of the far northern regions long ago invented spectacles of wood with a very narrow slit In the center to diminish as far s' 'possible the continual glare of the long -arctic day. It is sald that the Emperor 1Nero, who was an albino and whose eyes were therefore yery sensitive to light, used amethysts or emeralds to shield his eyes. 1His Preference.

By religious instruction, I the Home, the Sunday school, the Ju: ior Epworth League, etc. etc. Education does not mean the impoi tation of information, it means the d velopment of character. There can be no thorough and con plete education without religion; . provide adequate religious instructic for the children, is the primal and ir perative duty of the churches. The Sunday School hour is inad quate to meet the demand. The great need voiced by th Lhought, inspired the organization,4 the Junior EpworL League by ok church some years ago. Tais might well be called the extei sion Dep't. for advancing the conque. of the cross over the child world. The Sunday School hour is too bri4 and interrupted to give the needed ij struction in the bible, to say nothing < the training into habits of devotic through prayer or hymn study, or I give any knowledge of the church history or any of its doctrines. The earnest, consecrated teache feels more and more that some tim must be found, outside of the Sunda School hour, to meet the great nee which exists. When wer'e failing, even with a our efforts, to hold more than on third of the children for church men bership, shall we waste any of our eni gies by decrying the agencies planne to help stop the leakage? Rathe must we feel humiliated that we ar not able to win and hold so many < the boys and girls whom we taught fc a while. Two-thirds of those who com into our Sunday Schools and othe church organizotions go out from ou midst to be swollowed up in the glitte ond noise and clamor and evil of th world In Southern Methodism we hav 50,000 boys and girls in our Junic Leagues who are learning not only t be loyal and intelligent Methodists but also, happy, everyday christians. When Christ came to establish hi Kingdom on earth, he took little chi dren in his arms and blessed them, ei alting all childhood and investing i with a new, deep, sacred meaning, an today His Spirit is turning the heart of parents and teachers more and mor earnestly to the children. A christian mother's opportunity j far reaching and boundless; she mus study God's Word, learn his way, an depend upon Him for guidance and d rection. The consecrated mother must instil into the child, first, "obedience" th very foundation of character, and thi must begin in infancy. Children should be carefully taugh truthfulness, honesty, unselfishness, rf spect for their own word, and respec for anything that belongs to another Make home so pleasant for your boy that they will hold it dearer than an other spot. Keep plenty of good books at hand also games both instructive and amu ing. Encourage them to invite thei young friends to their homes, for th boy that feels at liberty to do this, ha no inclination to seek companions 1: the street. Moral training in the Home by th mother is the protection which oni she can throw ab-ut the heart and lif of her child. The duty of every- motl er is to till her child's life so full u good things that there is no room fo the evil. - In closing if I can impress upo mothers the stupendous task which : theirs, in shaping souls for eternity my message will not be in vain. You opportunities are unlimited, your re sponsibilities unbounded. God grant that you may rise in th strength of consecrated mother-hood and with the help of the Heavenl: Father, shape the lives of your chi dren for christian usefulness here, an for an eternity of bliss here-after.

What you eat determines your color according to Bergfleld, a German lnves tigator-not necessarily that you your self could effect any change of color but your ancestors for thousands o years have unconsciously been influ enced by the food they have eaten anc the drinks they have drunk. For Instance, the original men wert black, says Bergfleld. Their chief die was of vegetables and fruits, he ex plains, and these same foods contat manganates that are not unlike Iron Dark browns and blacks result fron this combination. It Is a scientific fac that negroes who drink milk and ea meat are never as dark as those whi eat vegetables. He goes on to add that the Indian Il red because for hundreds and perhap: thousands of years he has taken int his system the haemoglobln or red ma terial In the blood of animals whic1 he has killed for their food. Again, Mongols are yellow becaus< they have descended from races tha were fruit eating and who, makinj their way into the deepest nooks an< widest plains of Asia, developed inti shepherds and lived largely on mill Of course it is known that milk con tains a certain per cent of chlorine an< has a decidedly bleaching effect.

ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. How the Pulmotor is Used to Restor, Normal Breathing. The pulmnotor is an automatic resus citation appliance which produces flow of inhaled and exhaled air by single nozzle, the rhythm of respiratioa adjusting Itself automatically to th dimensions of the lung, and thus th astonishing result is produced of seemingly lifeless hody beginning t breathe regularly as soon as the pul motor is placed In connection 'with I1 The pulmotor works directly on th respiratory organs and If the spark ( life still exists will fan It Into a flam and give the heart and lungs a chanc to fight. The pulmotor is used on persons over come by gas, electric shock, appareni ly drowned or in other cases where th~ breathing of the patient has been ser: ously impaired or stopped entirely an where there still remains a slight hear action. Its motive power Is an oxyge cylinder containing this gas, which *1 supply a 00 per cent mixture of al and oxygen to the patient for fort minutes. It has a great advantag over artificial respiration by handi that it forces larger amounts of oxa genated air Into tao lungs than It possible by ordinary methods of artif cial respiration, and the work can h kept up longer.-Philadelphlfa Press.
