They are given* below for what they are worth. If true, the condition of affairs in South. Carolina is indeed in bad shape. The drummer said: “More whiskey is drunk and sold in South Carolina iio\y than at any time since the dispensary law was passed. ‘I was riding through th< country five days last week. At , (naming a town of 2<X) inhabitants two barrooms are open. Anyone may buy a drink at either— no questions asked.

Wo have often wondered if those who are so free with the all too ready pistol ever pause to think that the bullets that find lodgment in the bodies of their victims do not stop there but pierce the hearts of the victims’ loved ones?

On the trains one sees more evidence of whiskey-drinking than ever before. The whiskey that is now sold in South Carolina is the rottenest stuff that ever went dawn a throat.’’ Th< Man and Hi* Salary- “A man who gives his wife all his salary is no man at all,’’ declared Judge John J. Dobcr, of the supreme bench of Baltimore, in the criminal court yes- tesday.— Baltimore Associated Press Telegram. Rot, judge. You may know law, but you do not know human nature in America. If the average man would give the average wife or mother every rent of Ins salary, there would he mulmns of instances where happiness :u»t pros perity would l** enthroned insVad of sorrow and poverty.- Augusta Chroni cle. Right you are, neighbor, and von might have said to Judge Dobler *m- ilarly to what tin* farmer boy said to the h*aeher of mathematics, who ask* d him if twelve sheep were in a pasture and seven jumped our bow mans would remain' The Imu ans i-med.

She was sick hut a short time and her death came unexpectedly and was a shock to every one. Almeta was a sweet and affectionate baby and to know her was to love her. All that medical skill and loving hands could do was done hut of no avail, as God saw fit to take her and called her to the heavenly home above. May God bless the bereaved parents. A Friend. . The Time for Praise. When a man dies it is a noticeable fact that many people have good words to say about him and preform in an os tentatious manner many kind acts to ward him. His former competitors in business attend the funeral and per form many kindly offices for the dead, when he is fairly out of the way. Now, if these kind words were said when he w r as alive and pulling hard against the stream, he would have appreciated it more. But we have noticed at funerals men who a few days or weeks before could not find words mean enough to U-se against the poor man m the coffin. You might as well stay away. The kindly offices after death are not appreciated by the man in thr box, and the folk* at the funeral only smile in their sleeves and size you up. Give your good words when they are needed. Do your gixxt works when they do good. Do not throw on the thin gauze of sympathy a the funeral; everybody can see trough it—Fort Mill Times. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. COL'STY OF BARNWELL.
