Once upon a time while Olive
Thorne Miller and Florence Mer-

life, were taking notes in LewU
County, New York, they found a
widowed redstart and her baby in
the wood lot. Like all babies, the
little redstart was constantly teasing
for something to eat, and like most
mothers, the redstart was just wear
ing herself into tbe g;ave trying to
supply the demand.
And then came the kindly hand

" Excuse me," he said, " but i*o'

The American responded with some
surprise, hut in a few moment* tbe two
were conversing with the freedom of

mau of tact, and there were many

the Georgian, in the course of the

Tbe penniless ux-Cosfederato little

him. He simpiy knew that he had
met a bright brother lawyer, and out
of au abundance of his intellectual and
profi^sional resources ho entertained
him as he would a guest at his own

Perhaps an hour had been spent in
talking over the tnse, when the Lon

of its ownership to New York are for
ever impossible. This way lies the
safety of future business interests of
the territory between here and At

n Spartanburg before Judge Gary.
The new constitution of this State
abolished tbe office of trial justice and
provided for magistrates, but did not
fix the duties or define the jurisdiction
clearly. If magistrates have tbe right
to render judgments in divil cases
it is given them- by implication as

Greenwood county raoeber, was sent

know, my child?” tbe head teacher
asked her. "Oh, farming," the new
pupil replied. , " Well tell me what is
a farm?” " A farm is a body of land
surrounded by a barb-wire fence,” the
little maid said.
—"Hello 1 What’a wrong, old fel

whether he thought 1 was * fool, and
another one to Mias Willets, asking
