Value of a Boy.
school officials in Beverly, Mass.,
calculated the money gain for their
pupils in vocational education. They
found that an expediture of $800 per
boy in industrial training had raised
the capitalization of the boy's economic
value from $6,000 to $15,000 or $18,000.
To Take Out Spots.
It is not generally known that
eucalyptus oil will remove grease, including
machine oil, from any fabrio
without injuring it in any way. Dressmakers
should welcome this tip, as oil
is often spilt on a costume in the making,
due to bad working machines.

DARLINGTON THEATRE.
Some Fine l'lays to be Seen at Darlington
Theatre Soon.
To our Patrons
We are pleased to be able to secure
a fine line of attractions for the
Darlington Theatre during the next
few weeks. This season has been a
hard one; very few good attractions
in the South and we have had very
few good ones. However, we have
secured some fine ones for February
and we trust that our out of town patrons
may notify us in advance and
we- will see to it that they are 'taken
care of.
On February 3rd, "Macaria," dramatized
from Augusta J. Evans' great
novel of the same name, will come to
Darlington. This play has been on the
road but three weeks; having.opened
at Norfolk, Va., just tihree weeks ago.
Darlington will get the No. 1 company
which means that a real treat is in
-* ' - - _.v^ at.

traction. A full scenic equipment is
carried by this company.
On February ."th one of the greatest
actresses In America, Miss Henrietta
Grosman, will come to Darlington in
her latest play, "The Tongues of
Men." A big guarantee had to be put
up to b'ing Miss Grosman here, but
the management has the assurance of
one of the biggest houses in the history
of the theatre. Read any paper
or magazine and see who and what
Miss Crosman is.- You cannot afford
to miss this offering, for it is not often
that a town of this .size can secure
an attraction of such high order.
Miss Grosman is just out of New York
and brings with her the original company
and productions Getter get your
tickets early. .
On February ll'th, one of the best
plays ever written, "Polly of the Circus,"
with the celebrated S*t Leon
family, will pay Darlington another
visit. This play 'has been
presented here several times to packed
houses. It is a beautiful play?one
th;? will please everyone and the
company presenting It in Darlington
is an excellent one: in fact it is claimed
to be better than ever. You will
like "Polly of the Circus."
On February 13th, the greatest
play ever written?the play that has
taken the country by storm, "Within
the Law," will be.presented in Darlington
by a New "VJork cast. It is
needless to tell you that this attraction
is guaranteed. It is packing the
theaYes in every town in the United
States, and will pack the Darlington
Theatre to the doors upon itB visit
here. You cannot mtes this great attraction?you
wan?( choice seats too,
so order your tickets early and you
will not be disappointed. The criticisms
in the "State" and " New? and
Courier" last week, of "Within the
Law" should mean capacity houses
for this attraction anywhere in South
Carolina. Look up the papers and
read these criticisms.
Rcmember "all good'roads lead to
Darlington."

An English seamstress, says the
Manchester Ouardian. who was hell>
ing to make some costumes for a
Browning pageant, was asked if she
had ever read any of ?he poet. "No,"
she replied, "I've never read e.ny of
that sort of stuff; not Browning, nor
Shakespeare neither. But then, you
know," she added, "my mother has
her own opinion about Shakespeare."
Bar to Ants.
If one is housekeeping in the country
and bothered by an attack of ants
upon the bread box, take a common
piece of chalk, such as children use
for writing on a blackboard, and draw
a ring around the bread box with it.
The same kind of chalk ring will keep
them out of closets where dresses are
hanging or away from shelves.
