Avoid Debt.
The Progressive Farmer has
the following advice for farmers
as to going in debt for their
supplies:
Think of debt as you would of
a pestilence, and most of all
avoid "time prices." If you
must go into debt try to borrow
money at 6 to 8 per cent, put it
in a bank and pay the actual
cold cash for what you need.
Bitter pay at the rate of 10 per
cent, a year in interest than at
the rate or 30 to 70 per ct^t. a
year in time prices. And il
there is anything else quite as
bad for keeping you in debt as
time prices, it is usually the
prices asked by traveling agents.
The slick-tongued agent has
made millions of us pay two
prices for things we didn't half
need. It's a safe rule to never
buy anything from an agent till
you have had a week to think it
over.
Notice?Keep Out!
In a town in Alabama a boy,
unable to swim, was struggling
in 4he water. On the bank,
rushing around and telling each
other what to do, were thirty
big husky men, several of whom
could swim. Y\ bile they wen
niHHlirnr Mini mil torinir llwi lim

sank. Not oven then did one of
the "men" plunge in tho water
and try to rescue the little fellow.
He drowned before their very
eyes. Later, when questioned
by other astonished citizens the
brave fellows explained that they
had on their Sunday clothes, did
not wish to get them soiled and
that there was not time for any ,
of them to undress and pull the
drowning lad out of the pond.
A wave of righteous indignation
has swept over the town and
these Sunday suit fellows boycotted
and cut dead, socially, are j
preparing to leave the place. !
This article is written for the
purpose of suggesting, should it
meet the eye of one of the
thirty, that we do not want any j
of his kind in our community. !
-Ex.
"God Bless You."
Unless their followers fool-j
hardily force them apart, and
widen their breach. President
Wilson and Mr. Bryan will frive
to the world a beautiful example
of a political disagreement he- 1
tween warm friends without
either harshness or bitterness
of thought
Their farewell in the White
House, when each clasped the <
hand of the other, and requestod I
for him the blessings of God, is
a wonderful spectacle in the |
eyes of theto* fellowmen. None
but friends leave each other in
this manner and because of
their deep friendship their parting
becomes sadder still. Times

Lemberp Falls.
Lemberg, the capital of Galicia,
fell before the AustroGerman
forces Wednesday, after
a siege which began early last
month. In accomplishing this
victory the losses of the attacking
force are said to have run
high into the thousands.
Must Register Forthwith.
Under the Harrison antinarcotic
law, all physicians,
dentists, veterinarians, hospitals
and retail, wholesale and manufacturing
druggists are rei
quired to pay to the collector of j
internal revenue a special tax
of $1 for the fiscal year begin-1
nine .Tulv 1 and andincr .Tnnp SO
1S16. The response in South
I Carolina, with ten days left for
filing applications, shows that
only 617 applications for the tax
with the necessary remittance
of $1 have been correctly executed
out of the 2,311 persons
and institutions on the registration
hooks in the office of the
internal revenue collector, D. C. !

Thaw Again Faces Jury.
Harry K. Thaw's seventh attempt
to gain his freedom since
his arrest nine years ago for the
murder of Stanford White was
begun in New York yesterday
with the selection of a jury to
inquire as to his sanity.
If the jurors decide in Thaw's
favor and Justice Hendrick, presiding,
who has the power to
reverse their verdict, accepts it.
Thaw will obtain permanent release
from the Matteawan insane
j asylum.
Thaw has about 50 witnesses,
including a number of alienists,
to prove that he is now sane and
[entitled to his freedom. The
| State has a large number to
testify against him.
Good Lunches For Passengers.
The Southern railway is dis|
tributing a folder, announcing
j plans of a system to serve fresh
and palatable lunches on trains
without dining car accommodaI
tions. At all points where the
trains are accustomed to stop
for meals or during meal hours,
neat boxes of lunch will be put
on sale. The Southern is protri/)ir\cr

innkeepers and restaurants.
Amounts to be charged will be
left to the discretion of the dealers,
but suggestions are made as
io the quality of lunches to bepffered.
Officials are emphasizing
that the food shall he prepared
the day it is offered. As
i matter of convenience, con
luctors wilj telegraph ahead for
the number of lunches required
upon the arrival of his train.
The folder also contains informa nation
as to what the contents
>f the lunch should be.
Farmers Seek Market.
For several years past a number
of the more progressive
farmers in this community have
been gettigg away from cotton
ard devoting their lands and
their energies to more diversified
crops from which they expect to
gain more profit and satisfaction
than from the growing of cotton.
However, they did not expect
that their efforts would be so
successful and the crops so
abundant that they might have
some trouble in marketing their
surplus and hence have done
little toward securing markets
in advance. In consequence
they find their fields and barns j
filled with the choicest alfalfa
and crimson clover hay, while
there will also be a surplus of
r>ats. Of course there are
plenty of people throughout the
State who want these farm
products just as badly as the
farmers here want to sell them
and it only remains for them to
get together. The efforts being
made by E. J. Watson, commissioner
of agriculture, toward
this end will probably be productive
of good results to both
buyer and seller.
The Movies.
In a town lik this, where there
is no society, no social mingling
of the people except at church
and lodge, and where a party of
grown-ups is an affair to cause
weeks of talk, the moving picture
show serves a very useful
purpose.
It entertains, instructs, takes ,
us away from our little affairs,
j?jvcs us a glimpse of other
scenes and other modes of living,
and serves to while away an
evening without providing a
bitter after-taste.? Fountain Inn

His neighbors gathered at his

over his crop again.
The little child of Dave Gibson
is no better. This is a pitiful
and distressing case.
Children's Day will be observed

Vegetables, such as beans, potatoes
and cabbage are quite
plentiful now, and for the information
of the public, will say
that our carrier says cabbage
are much hetter eating if you
will cook a chunk of "old ned"
along with them.
The fruit crop is quite short,
but blackberries are getting ripe
and an old gentleman who has
passed away a long time since
used to say that he never saw a
fat Coltharp only in blackberry
time. v
Mr. J. 1 . Kimhrell camp nlnno
yesterday in his new Ford car
and took us over to Yorkville,
which was truly a pleasant outing

have the draw-ups.
