Seventeen yours ago Jehovah sent hi* j death angel into our home and took a ; very darlhig little girl. He hoyered over j our home for days and weeks as if to ? A few weeks ago he icume so. suddenly ami tragieaMy again and took a bright and manly boy, jiisst as he looked out on a lift' of promise. But instead of our hearts being angfy with God for tossing us into the muddy stream we praise him that he didn't let us drown. We had crossed many streaaris during our pil grimage but this was the deepest and widest ami muddiest of any we had conic to ami it scorned as if we would drown, and u ?rout-hearted man just had to cry tiii night to God to help lis across. Well, he did. Along the way he had ! frit-ad* ami flowers and our friends rush- J ed tii nur assistance ju*t at the right ! time to cheer a fainting and achiug i heart, ami nothing George loved better than flowers, unlcm ft was his muina and papa and blather* and listers and friends. l'nt we couldn't see the other side of the raging torrent until we felt God's hand Hasp our hand and God's voice said, .fear not. with thee, and our heart beat in unison with, his and we said wc will not grieve as those having no hope but praise him for the sending of eight precious children into our home since the former visitation. Thus giving us very sweet "privileges as well as great mspoiKsibilitles. Wo have little dream that seventeen yearn will pass agaiu be fore another eall will -be nia<le by deatb -and we trust each call to mellow . our own heart tiH it will be ready for its own summons. So many sweet letters of sympathy and proffers of awl from frlendt^and relatives are highly appreciat ed by the family. J. O. Moseley. Held For Double Killing. Columbia, Juno .'t. ?

CAMDEN, SOUTH CAROLINA The day of all days is of course, the Graduation Day. * Memory long lingers 'round that event; conse quently your gift at this time should be so chosen as to help make the recollection pleasant.

Simultaneously with his last words a big 'Minnie' dropped almost at the sentry's feet. When he recovered he was lying In a hole covered with mud but uninjured. Tho sentry sat up, rubbed the mud from his eyes, and then gazing heav enward, said, 'Oh, I say, Gawd, cawn't* you take a blawsted Joke?"* ? New York Sun. FAR BEYOND ALLOTTED SPAN inatancee of Remarkable Caaea of Longevity Which Seem to Be Well Authenticated. Tho death at Nenagh, County 'Tlppe^ ary, Ireland, of Mrs. IJourke, who was reported to have resched the age of 121 years, has led tho London Daily Express to make a record of some of the other famous cases of longevity. In 1904 the regimental chaplain of the 18th Ilengal Infantry was still conduct ing services In Calcutta at the age of 130. In 1908 Andrei Nlkolalevltch Schmidt, a Russian, produced papers which showed that he was 130 years old, and had enllHted In tho Reval battalion In 1796. The same year Fladji Ilaouf was 133, and was still earning a living as a saddler Inf Con stantinople, but he was a Juvenile coin pared with Quo-Ka-Num, an Indff^n chief who roamed the shores of I'uget sound at the ago of 160. He was gen erally conceded by Europeans more likely to be 200, and ho claimed to re member the time when Iron was un known to his tribe. He m*as 2 feet T? Inches In height and did not weigh f>0 pounds. A few years ago a Chlnesn woman reached Montreal. She had' left her native land when 70, and had" lived In Demerara for 100 years. In 1912 Europe had 7.000 living centenarl-^ aus, of whom 3.888 were Bulgarians. New Canadian Coat of Arm?. The Canadian government Is con sidering adopting a new coat of arms for the dominion? one which shall rep resent all the provinces in the confed eration. The present coat of arms is representative of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick only, for those were the original provinces; and since It was adopts In 18T>8 Prince Edward Island and British Co lumbia have entered the federation, and finally Saskatchewan and Alberta have been carved out of what were the Northwest territories. When a de sign emblematic of these nine prov inces has been chosen by the commit tee and approved by the government It will be submitted to the royal col lege of heralds In England to be reg istered. A royal warrant declaring It the official arms of Canada will then be Issued. ? Double Bottoms Put to Work. For many years a few steamships from the far east have brought fuel oil back to Britain In the ballast space between their Inner and outer hulls. The practice never became general, however, and "tankers" continued to handle the bulk of the trado. But In June, 1017, increased submarine activ ity and the expansion of the allied fleets made immediate additions to tank tonnage so imperative that not a few, but hundreds, of British and American "double bottoms" were fitted for this auxiliary cargo. Apart from its war-time results this new practice has taught marine engineers many les sons that will guide them in designing the oil-burning ships of tomorrow. ? Popular Mechanics Magazine. His First Visit. Mr. Lloyd George wo*ild seem, says Liverpool Post, to have had a premoni tion of his future eminence when he paid a first visit to London as? a lad of nineteen. "Went to the house of cortimons," he yote home to his uncle. "Very disappointed. I will not say but that I eyed the assembly In a spirit similar to that In which William the Conqueror eyed England on his visit to Edward the Confessor as the region of his future domain. Oh, vanity 1" Injections of Cane 8ugar. Doctor Rosenthal reports to the Presse Medicals (Purls) that he has administered Intravenous Injections of a strong solution of saccharose In nu merous cases of tuberculosis. The pro cedure exerts a manifest tonic action. It raises the blood pressure, augments tfce body weight, and Indirectly pro duces a favorable effect on the tuber culocj * lesions. These re suite are ascribed by the author to an enhance sent of the functions of the liver. THE FRIENDLY TOBACCO Thar's two things can't be imitated ? youthful charm and mellow old age. "Mellow old age " in good Kentucky Burley Tobacco is reached after it has cured for two years. We put millions of pounds in ware houses every year, to ripen for two years. It is a slow, expensive method. f5ut it makes Velvet as good a pipe tobacco as money can buy. It makes Velvet mel low and friendly ? cool and long-burning.

Tillmau Sessions, ? colored, who was implicated with Altamont Murray, the Lee county negro, who drew a pistol on a lady and used abusive language on the public road about ten days ago in the vicinity of Hagoodf was arrested Friday by Rural Policemen Boyltin and Newman on a Warrant charging assault with intent to kill. He was taken at once to the penitentiary for safe keeping, where Murray was taken laat week. Ow ning to the gravity of the case it was thought advisable to place both of the accused in the penitentiary until the case comes up for trial. ? Sumter Item. Ruth Law To Attempt Long Flight. Chicago, May 28. ? Rutti Law, aviator, before leaving for New York today, an nounced that strife plans to attempt a trans-Atlantic flight, within six weeks. She will use a new Curtiss land bi plane equipped with two Curtiss Kirk ham motors of 400 horse power each, and will be accompanied by James Lament* her mechanician. Miss Law, recently returned from the Orient, where she wafj engaged in flying. 'Time!" A garrulous lawyer was arguing a case. He had rambled on in such a desultory way that it became very difficult to fol low his train of thought, and the judge yawned ominously. ?Whereupon the long-wined lawyer with a trace of sarcasm, said: "I hope, your Honor, I am not un duly trespassing upon the time of the court." "My friend," observed the judge, "there is a considerable difference between tres passing on time and encroadhing on eternity." * No Light on Anarchists. Washington, June 3. ? Investigation of the bomb explosions in ei#ht cities which were intended to kill public men has mnvinced secret service chiefs here that the outrage had a common source, and fbat they probably can be clawed as An ummcrefwful attempt on the ipart of ? still unknown anandUstle croup to re sume a campaign of terrorism begun with the May Day rttemct to deliver a se ries of infernal machines through the atttijs sot of New York. Robbery at Heath Spring*. The stores of Enterprise Mercantile Company and W. T. Stover company at Heath SpringK were broken open Hun day night.
