Why should you lose time and money you huve invested in your crops by a Hail Storm when a Hail Policy of "The Franklin Fire of Philadelphia,, will protect you against such loss ? The money losses each year op Growing Grain from Hail Storms, are enor mous, and no Farmer who is lucky enough to escape one year can be sure he will not lose the savings of a lifetime the next year from this cause. In view of the high price for Cotton the possibility of loss from Hail Storms is an es pecially interestig question for every Farmer. Insure today in "The Franklin Fire of Philadelphia,, (Orgaized in 1829 and in bu siness ever since) and be on the safe side! Our agent will give you complete informa tion about the policy and the rates asked. C. P. DuBOSE & COMPANY Telephone 43 Real Estate and Insurance Crocker Bldg. On a Hot Day the CHALMERS Runs Cool with Hot Spot and Ram's 'horn . * ^ ?*? THE reason the Chalmers runs cool on a hot day is the very same reason a Chalmers starts quickly and runs smoothly on a cold day. Service records show no complaints i of over-heating in summer. Such trouble in other cars comes from une venness or the charges, "improperly digested fuel," and other matters . often attributed to the raw, heavy, inferior gasoline you buy today. Hot Spot transforms such "gas" into, a "fine vapor cloud," just right for quick combustion. Ram Vhorn hurries it at a velocity ot 100 miles an hour through "easy air bends" to the cylinders. Thus follow power results that are smooth and even; and notably absent are those troubles that cause an en gine to overheat, or burned bearings, or scored cylinders, or frequently fouled spark plugs and the like. Engage a Chalmers owner in conversation about his car.. He will tell you Chalmers is one of the few great cars of the world. GEO. T. LITTLE Camden, S. C. TO ASSIST CUPID Movement for "Mixed Clubs'' in City of London.

We And, therefore, that early marriage la the custom chiefly of the unskilled workew, casual laborers and the very poor. The economic question Is not r the only barrier to early marriage and more marriage in the great middle class, strange as it may appear, a vait.tiuin ber of men and women who wish to marry cannot find mates. Even In these days, there are a multitude of men who have very few women ac quaintances, and a still larger host of women who rarely enjoy the society of men. We are apt to forget that, a large proportion of the Inhabitants of the big cities are practically strangers in the gates." Their "homes" are a bedroom in the suburbs, a boarding house or a little lock-up flat. They are country Immigrants to the large towns, and In many Instance* they have not a single acquaintance In the place. If we are really In earnest about the ?decline of the marriage rate and the deferment of matrimony, we should set" about facilitating social Intercourse be tween the sexe*. The flrst practical step Is the provision of "mixed clubs" under?fnunlclpal control. Clubs, as they exist now, are simply Internment c?mj>S for men or 'women, and there Is no doubt that they tend to a further seg regation of the sexes. It Is true that there are clubs In Lou don where men and women can meet. But we require a very much Inrgerj number^ln the metropolis ?nd In all part? of the provinces. Mg own experience of mixed clubs Is that they undoubtedly promote mat-; rltnony. They are a pleasant meeting place for young men and women after the days' work. It Is appalling that thousands of youths and maidens should have nowhere to foregather In the evenings and no choice between the lonely lodging and the streets. I \*ould( suggest also that every mu nicipality should establish a marriage bureau and provide candidates for wed lock with Introductions.? From Oontl-' nental Edition of London Mall. Where Soft Drinks Originated. A Philadelphia writer ways that there Is not imieh Inspiration for po etry In soda water. I.et It be remembered that another "first" to be credited to Philadelphia Is for the manufacture of soda water ? that Is to sny. the commonly accept ed beverage with fruit sirups. It was made by Kugene Roussel, who 0 conducted n perfumery establishment here about ft century ago. Moreover, the Philadelphia centen nial finally confirmed the Important place of the Industry and the .popular ity of the beverage Jn the United States. Robert M. Green began to build soda fountain In '74, showed one at the centennial, and at the Franklin institute exposition, held not long thereafter, dispensed his new In vention, "Ice cream soda," to an In creasing throng that presently was paying $200 a day over the counter for the seductive new "soft drinks." With the jiresent soda water and -soda fountain business approximating one billion dollars a year, this Phil adelphia born Industry Is still In Its ? Infancy. But what a prodigious Infant It Is! ?

Two-anna and 1-anna pieces have been in circu lation In India for many year*, hut hitherto no nickel coins of n value equal to the nfw Issue have been In use in an> fount ry ? in fact, the M nnna piecv i? credited with being the highest-valued coin struck In base metal In the world, it* recent sterling exchange value being 1 shilling 2 pence, or 2S ,rniv at normal voltes. The Indian government was influenced in iis decision to issue .the new coins i l?> I lie high price of silver, and It Is probable that one result of the inno vation will l>o (n iiiihe the S-anna sil ver coins t<? disappear. ?
