W. U. 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.

One satisfaction in giving"
Scott's Emulsion to children is
they never object to it. 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.
