In various countries this la a common dodgo of tho crocodiles to entico tho monkeya within their reach, and it was ex pected by the wltnessea of this ind- dent that ona or more of tho notay aalmals would fall victims to tho goggle-eyed monsters below, and k was with conslderabl# curiosity that tha result waa awaited. As soon as tha black-looking heads popped up the monkeys became silent. Presently one big fellow, avidently of authority in tho monkey republic, came down to reconnoiter. Ho re turned, and In a few minutes cams back with a long, thin stick In his hand and accompanied by about a hundred of his friends. They began to chatter and to pelt their foes, but the crocodiles took no notice. The onlookers thought they seemed to give a wink of satisfaction at seeing their silly victims coming within their reach. Nearer and nearer they came, until some of them were barely six feet above the crocodiles, and the men watching were expecting every Instant to see one of them dragged under the water.

Adam s fate after his expulsios from Paradise was: “In the sweat of thy brow shall thou eat bread.” Bread baking is one of the oldest of human arts. It is older than history and older than civilization. It is a romantic story of man himself, his evolution and development through untold centuries. Pre-historic relics tell us how bread was first milled by stone crushers and baked on stone slabs durisg the Stone Age. the oldest age of human civilization. The tombs of the ancient Egyptian. Kings disclose how the Egyptians at the dawn of history milled by the pestle and mortar and saddle stone, and baked on ashes and cinders. Much has been written about the Royal ( Bakery of harnesses III and the highly curious ovens and cooking utensils of the Egyptian Kings. The frequent referesce in the Bible to leavened bread indicates the use of leaven in the early Egyptian period—the leaven however, was not yeast, but a sour dough taken from a previous baking. of To get money—earn it; but one sure way to have money—save it; but one sure way to Save Money —by systematic setting aside each week or month a portion your income and putting it to work in A Reliable Banking institution. \Ye offer you our services. “ BANK & TRUST COMPANY Florence, S.
