METHODISTS DRIVE TOR EDUCATION That the educational institutions for which the Methodist Episcopal church. South, has launched the educational movement to raise $33,-000,000 for endowment and better equipment are worthy of the great tindertaking is evidenced by the interest they have aroused in the minds of men not only in the Southland but in the North as well. The announcement, which has just heen marie, thai the General Rducn tion Board has offered $200,000 to the endowment of Wofford College, Spartanburg, S. C.', ]froi'ided $300,000 Is raised by the college between this and December 31, 1921, Is hailed with delight by Southern Methodists. Wofford College is one of the Institutions that is to be benefitted by the Christian education Movement of the Methodist Church, South. The approved Jiskings of Wofford amount to $500,000. Of this sum, more than $300,000 will go to her endowment, thus insuring the offer of the General Education Board. Wofford College is especially favored by the General Education Board, because it is against the policy to give to denominational institutions. Dr. Henry Nelson Snyder, president of Wofford, however, presented the cause of the institution so forcefully to ur. wauace KuttertcK, president, and Dr. E. C. Sage, assistant secretary of the board, they waived the rule, Dr. Buterick declaring that no other College's cause had- so forcefully appealed to him as that of Wofford.

I "Shoemaker, stick to your last." i?Apelles, a celebrated painter, was in the habit of exhibiting his ple.ture to the passers-by, while he heard their comments without being sc-en. One day a shoemaker- criticized the shoes in a certain picture, and found next day that they had been repainted. Proud of his success as a critic, he began to ilnd fault with the thigh of the picture, when Apelles cried out from behind the canvas, "Shoemaker, stick to your last." "To cqok your goose for you." King Eric of Norway, coming to a town with a small force, the inhabitants, to express their contempt for him, hung out a goose upon the wall for him to shoot at; but before night t i::v; uttu enuT"! in? t*iiy ana set it on fire?"To cook your goose for you.' 'said the king. i| "None of you know where the shoe j pinches." Plutarch relates how Paulus divorced his wife, and when his friends remonstrated and asked him if she were not beautiful and witty and accomplished, he held out a shoe; and said, "Is it not handsome? It is not new? And yet noxio of you knows where it pinches, but he who wears it." i ???B BBMBBggHHmOBT; I MARBLE f ! FLOOR i FINISH | HARMON DRU< Lexington, S. F. H.

Perhaps you have never thought ot' it, but the fact must be apparent, to every one, that constipation is caused by lack of water in the system and the use of drastic cathartics, like the old-fashioned cathartic and liver pills, make a bad matter worse, as they take too much water out of the system. Chamberlain's Tablets are much more mild and gentle in effect and when the proper dose is taken, their action is so natural that one can hardly realize that it is the effect of a medicine.
