Nail writes tf?- l|i<; (.'hosier ; Bulletin as follows: Someone has said that not a (lay passes oyur the earth but iiicn and women of no nole ilo great deeds, 8 peak great words, and h 11 f - fur nohle sorrows. Of these ob scure heroes, p !i ilosphers and mar tyrs, ihe greater pari will never lie known till that day, when many thai are great shall he small, and the arns.!! ?rest; but of others the! worlds knowledge may be said to sleep. Their lives and ehai actors lie hidden from nations in the very annals that record them. Along the pathway of limes sweeping changes lay people hear ing the above description. Many of whom are childien of still great er heroes whose hist resting plaocj bears no mark or monument to perpetuate their history as it lay buried beneath the dust, the mold | and waslo of pi'ilosu time. Lee and Jackson, All, my conscience, these immortal names, for ages / they will tower above the world. Hul between the plow handles, o/i the railroads end in the factories, arc heroes as great as our own ho ?) loved Lee and Jackson and who arc at once wbrthy of the kindliest of consideration at the hands of their more fortunate brethren, (that is financially speaking.) Hut do they get it? . I am afraid not. l*f?or little boys but bright as a silver dollar, fresh from the mini, are being robbed of an educuion ancUall on account of tho constant Changing of the school hooks and the high prices charged for them. Now, Mr. Editor, !? just want to point out one piece of reckless ex travagance connected with the graded school of Chester. Take tbe^ufo of pencil tablet?, did you 'ka6W that.. under the tablet system H coela the parent* from fifty to ieir<<??ty Ave timet more than the jriite I understand from i ttfiftlt* MMIM# 4M? H UM one I tablyt or uioiw | >t* &* ; in ?> n l li lei' each pupil. Well lo months coustit ute a session, you Ht'O iH.ich fore t hat it costs the parent .fd> ots. or more a I gcaston' to furnish tablets alone, ' and I li i h in one of the w rn a 1 1 <*m t items connected with its education. 'There nro about '.)()() cliil Iren M- 1 tending the Chester graded school and it costs the people of < ' Im>h t <? i ? J f>0 a session for tablet s alone, to ; ^ay nothing of t !m*. ii nneress.u v dead load of new hooks they ere required l'? g<." every two or three mouths. Suppose these '100 c- h i 1 - dren were using slates instead of tablets? What would be the <1 i f forenee in thn cost to the parents of these children'/ Suppose we fig ure it out. .'tOO slates at, 1 < >t; each amounts to ?110, well most every I child keeps a slate about 10 years. Tli is hci ng the ease, you will read ily nee that the actual consumption of slates would amount to just three dollars i)''yerir instead of $lf>0 the people a\'e now spending for tablets. Is not this well wolthy the serious consideration of all right thinking! people? Apparent ly there are some people in this world so constituted as to care but very little or nothing n? to how much trouble and expense their neighbors are. called on to bean jusi. go it. does not effect, them, it is nlnghl. There is evidently a ? i n i* or mo nopoly of OdiiKi description in e\is tence that is controlling the sab* of Kelioid books and I don't care whether it is a town >ing, a Slate ring, a United Slates ring or a ring around the eaiLh, it ought. t be destroyed without remedy. Mr. Kditor,. picture t<? yotusclf a lone widow with live children to sup port and educate. See how she toils the live Ion/; day, making sac rifice/after saeriliec in order tliai her (miliums might enjoy the bene litn of a good ( ilucat i< n. See with what a smile aim greets them as they cone laughing and leaping in from school. See how oarefullyTney are ^ fed and t heir b-sstins taught them for I lie mor row. See how tenderly they an* | lucked away in bed t <? d renin' I pleasant (lieaniH. Kill. does tin' I 1 work <1 I he widow women stop I here'/ Ah, no! but down she v;oen nea r the dim lights of a tailow candle or pine knot to new until midnight, in order to make money to buy her children school books every two or three months just because monop oly says it is absolutely necessary .Mr. Kdityr it is a .shame and (lis grace to this, thu evening, of the I'.Hh century, for able bodied men to take advantage of this (Jodlv pride and ambition that burns like a holy lire, in (In- liVcastof every pa rent. Tli it? nrognney of wealth and abuse of power has hurried willi relet) Litis?. swill ness and barbarity beyond oblivious black shadow, some of the grandest heroes and [heroines that eyer drew the sweet breath of life, has split, splintered and shivered agricultural and mer cantile timber that had defied a thousand whirlwinds. It does not ret) u ire a brain of extraordinary ca pacity to know that , these are un :!p;>ro,.\el!'.v,.)!t\ rcslid and stubborn facts. That monopoly h an brought about conditions oyer against which the young manhood of this country will have to form them selves in battle array (so lo speak) or else this monster or monopoly, proud, arrogant and aristocratic with a pedigree running back to Caesar, will eventually swallow up every tiling including civil libei tv itself. Mr. Kdilor when we say that we are true to principles and South Carolina we should bear in mind as to how much that embraces. If I understand it aright, it means that we are to stick torour post cf duty and discharge every one of them with fidelity before llod and man. It means that we ate lei/live, lloutish and fall if need be upon the platfoim of principle and stick lo our n ali VtTSiate as long as there! is a piece of it left. It means we, as pai l and parcel of its citizen- [ ship, are to see that justice is met ed out lo the licit and poor alike, irrespective of creed, politics or re- 1 ligion. It means that we are iv>! honor bound to guard \>ilh a devo- ' tion akin to that of itf'olalry, the interests of the noble and self sac rificing, wg/neu, who by their ear nest 'co-operation with Almighty Qod lo reclaim a fallen world, have carved upon the walls of litre, deeds and names that will never die.

The fact is, they soon bccomc fond of it. Another satisfaction is because it will make 'itJxcm plump, and give them growth and prosperity. It should be given to all children who arc too thin, or too pale. It does not make them over-fat/ but plump. It strengthens the digestive organs and the nervts, and fur nishes material for rich blood. We have a book t?Hin? y*? more on Scftt Irez juking. SCOTT Ar BOWNC, N?w YorV.
