Let us hope that the political dis- 11
| j
missions this year, both in the State
and county^campaigns, will be on t
the plane of deeeucy. There is no e
reasou why political speeches should :l
be so dirty that ou r wives and daugh- J
ters cannot listen to them, and the ^
people should demand that every i
candidate avoid mud-slinging and J
.
foul language. There is room for 1
great improvement along this line. *

Consistency.
5-\'. 4
* Every member of Christ's visible church t
has publicly declared his belief in God,
. and in his son, Jesus Christ, and in the (j
Holy Ghost, and in the church of God. j
He has also declared his belief in the
v-'" Bible as the word of God, and has declared
his purpose to make it his rule of faith
and practice. This is the very least that t
a real Christian can profess to believe. A
faith that does not go this far would not
admit him to the communion of any
church, nor will anything short of this
admit him into the kingdom of heaven.
Ordinarily, men are right careful of ^
t < their reputation for veracity and consist- g
ency; and a man who is not, can hardly
be considered trustworthv. How then
are we to account for the conduct of so ^
many members of the church? The t
only answer is that we are only playing at s
religion. As children sometimes say, we
? just "make like." When Elijah would
prove the sincerity of the Isrealites who
had professed faith in God, he said "if God s
I be God, follow him; but if Baal, then fol- t
low him." This would at least be con- t
sistency. WhHe our God is a God of jus- t
tice and will judge us at the last day ac- <
cording to our works, lie delights also in j
mercy, and offers it to all who will seek j
him through his Son. The best Christian, j
not to say the most inconsistent, realizes (
that he stands in constant need of God's (
? mercy and grace. Should there come a
time in his experience, which often will
come, when he feels that his evil ways t
have separatal between him and his God,
' his cry will be "0, that I knew where I
might find him, that I might come even ]
to his seat! I would order my cause be- (
fore him, and fill my mouth with argu- ^
ments. I would know the words which .
i
he would answer me, and understand ,
?
what he would say unto me." Surely it ,
is no new thing under the sun to say that ,
a true Christian will seek God's presence j
and love the place where His Honor ^
tdwelletli. The Psalmist said, "I would ,
rather be a doorkeeper in the house of 1
my God than to dwell in the tents of ,
wickedness." Again 4'I was glad when t
they said unto me, let us go unto the ,
Lord." This was because he knew that
in God's house was where His people ,
would be honored with the Divine
Presence. This same God is "the same (
yesterday today and forever." His promis- j
es are many in which he declares liimsMf ,
present with his people when they meet ,
to worship. "We quote one significant .
passage: "Where two or three are gathered
together in my name, there am I in the <
midst of them." If it should beannounc- ,
ed that President McKinlev would attend .

Christ may state his intention of being ,
present, anil hardly a score of people will
be present to greet him. 0, what inconsistency
! But you say, I don't particularly
like the man who is to lead the meeting.
His talks are not entertaining to me.
Then you go to church because of your
respect of a man or to be entertained by '
his eloquence, and not that you may worship
God. Eloquent men have no monopoly
on the Divine Presence. Brother, ]
sister, be consistent. Say you do not be- .
lieve that Christ is present with his people
when they worship, or admit ypu do i
not care to meet him. O, what is to become
of such inconsistent church members?
"I would thou wert cold or hot,
and because thou art lukewarm and neither
cold nor hot I will spew thee out of
my mouth." "Woe to them that are at
ease in Zion." "Now therefore, fear the j
Lord, and serve him in sincerity and in
truth, and if it seem evil, or useless unto
you to serve the Lord, choose you this

Kipling's New Animal Stories.
Rudyard Kipling is going to tell of
"The Beginning of the Armadillos" in ,
the May Ladies' Home Journal. Of
course, Mr. Kipling brings to bear an ir
resistibly funny, but withal a highly ingenious,
philosophy in describing the
peculiarities of the armadillo. He evi
dently found enjoyment in writing these
stories?he calls them "Just So" stories 1
?for he has interwoven more inimitable
humor into his account of the way by
which the armadillos came into being,
and the others of the series, than in anything
else that has come from his versatile
pen.

Denmark Doings.
Denmark, March, 20.?It is difficult
or one to vaguely estimate or to slightly
appreciate the vast amount of genuine
deasure that accompanies the opening
>f spring. It is a delightful season, gnuk
lal in its approach, yet increasing in beauty
until earth, air, plants, and animals
eeni to be over-burdened with exuberance.
It is the season in which man begins
to realize his l/opcs, gain faith in
lis God. The flickering waves of heat
iecn across the plowed held reminds, us
hat a great event of nature is about to
ake place, which will materially affect
he whole world. I allude to the crossing
>f the tropical circle by sun, the great
iromise front the Master that you may
riant the seed and reap the harvest of
jread. Many in this section have that
material faith, for they have put in hunlreds
of acres of corn during last week.
The absence of the usual throng of people
on the streets suggests the idea that
he farmer is the world's frieivl- The
lierchants and clerks are seen on dress
parade or lounging in the meadow lolling
in the sunshine. The peculiar.smell
>f fertilizers has been swept away and on
the hillside may be seen the "nigger and
the mule," and perhaps the forty acres,
ill of which are under the careful supervision
of the landlord. The "nigger"
?oes at his work cheerfully and probably
aever thinks of "Mr. Lincuni" or traditional
promises. The absence of customers
makes it possible for merchants
to formulate new plans, discuss new enterprises
and time in which to recognize
the small demands of the community. Sattirday
is a lively day for all merchants.
Yet, farmers are spending their money
writh great caution.
Burglars have made some daring raids
>n stores in this town, during the past
fortnight, which have somewhat aroused
the thinking public. The strong arm of
the law will begin to strike down the
'night hawks" ere long.
Fine work is being done at the high
school by teachers and pupils. The
school has "a tine, growing library and
me of the best reading tables in the

their advantages, and are ever on the
ilert for the material progress of what
low seems very successful.

A fearful accident occurred last Friday
at P. H. Starrs steam mill near town.
The log tram is a down grade approaching
the mill from the west. Four mules
pulling a car heavily loaded with logs,
thirty to forty feet long, were approaching
the creek trestle without a driver to
manage the brakes, causing the truck to
run at a fearful speed down the hill.
One mule was knocked down, the truck
passing over him and leaving him apparently
dead, but afterwards reviving.
The next mule was knocked from the
trestle, his hind foot was caught between
the logs and the bridge leaving him suspended
in midair, where it hung until
death relieved the poor animal of its sufferings.
The other two escaped.
Her friends welcome Mrs. V. S. Lawton,

Mr. James McNab has three pretty setter
pups. On Sunday morning lie found
the pup frothing at the mouth and giving
unmistakable evidence of a case of hydrophobia.
He wisely shot his puppy.
Mr. N. A. Patterson left Olar to-day for
his home at Wethersbee, Barnwell county.
He has given general satisfaction as
a teacher, and there were seventy-four
pupils on the roll of the school, with an
average attendance of thirty-live per day.
Another painful accident has occurred
here. The little daughter of Mr. Samuel
Hutto was out in the lield around some
fire. Turning her back to the fire her
ilress was ignited. The parents of the
girl being near, succeeded in extinguishing
the flames, they each receiving painful
burns. The attending physician considers
the recovery of the little girl as
extremely doubtful. P.
RISE IN REI) SPRINGS.
Pauses a Young Clerk to Take an
Earthward Tumble.
Herbert Rennaird, one of the cleverest
you in: fellows in town, is chief cook and
bottle washer in .1. A. Beazley's furniture
store. He is a lirst-class clerk, but there
an* many of the tricks of the trade he has
yet to learn. On Saturday Mr Beazley
received a dozen wire mattresses, which
were mashed down to a thickness of about
is inches and tied with rope. Not knowing
of tiie great force of the springs, Herbert
got upon the bundle on his hands and
knees and began cutting the ropes. All
wi-nt u i?H nnt il the knife severed the last
rope, when Herbert quickly left the earth
ami started on a sudden journey to what
he supposed was the better land. After
reaching a height .of 10 or 12 feet his
course changed, and the downward llight
begun. In the latter he cut a swipe
through a maple shade tree, knocking the
back oil* a dresser, broke three chairs sitting
on the sidewalk and finally reached
terra tirma bearing some dozen cuts and
scratches. The mattresses, when released,!
llcw in all directions, and it is said one;
landed on the courthouse portico. Herbert
says lie thinks this is the final decree
in the trade.?Lancaster (Ky.) Record.
We have saved many doctor bills since
we began using t'hainberlain's Oougli
Remedy in our home. We keep a bottle
open all the time and whenever any of ni\
family or myself begin to eat eh cold we I
begin to use the Cough Remedy, and as a
result we never have to send away Ibi a
doctor bill, for Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy never fails to cure. It is certainly
a medicine of great merit and worth.

Under the supervision of our efficient
marshal, Mr. Frank Snider, our streets
f
are now being worked. The new street
from Mr. Lawton Bishop's to Mr. Wesley
Copeland's has received some attention,
but not enough yet; the stumps ought to
be removed and the bridges made more
safe. Surely the town council sees that
good streets are indispensable to a growing
town. Then the only excuse that can
be offered is a lack of money, and atlimsy
one, too. If two dollars per capita for
street duty is not enough to keep the
streets in proper shape, then other means
for raising more money should be resorted
to; make a special levy, or make the street
tax three instead of two dollars.
Yes, and we know of other things on
which public money could be wisely
spent, other than roads and streets;
schools for instance. It has always been
conceded by fair-minded men that the
school is the greatest factor in the makeup
of a town. Kill a school and the town
dies of itself. "We are not bragging, but
merely stating facts. Five years ago our
school was founded; then there was one
store here, now there are ten, and business
has increased more than a hundredfold.
Of course, we know that our school
did not do all this by itself, but it has
helped. Has the town ever helped the
school? The echo answers "has it?" Why
not vote a special school tax, and thus
give the railroad and other taxable business
enterprises, that we helped to make
and are helping to maintain, an opportunity
to help us? We are not begging
help, for the school has been self-sustaining
for live years, and we suppose will
continue so, but we believe public taxation
for school purposes the best thing to
he done for the town 01 iuirnarut.

Look In Your Mirror f
Do you see sparkling eye*, a healthy, [J
tinted skin, a sweet expression and a grace- H
ful form ? These attractions are the result I
of good health. If they are absent, there I
is nearly always some disorder of the dls- B
tinctly feminine organs present. Healthy
menstrual organs mean health and beauty
everywhere.
McELREPS
Wine of Cardui
makes women beautiful and healthy.
It strikes at the root of all their
trouble. There is no menstrual disorder,
ache or pain which it will not
cure. It is for the budding girl, the
busy wife and the matron approaching
the change of life. At every trying
crisis in a woman's life it brings
health, strength and happiness. It
costs $1.00 of medicine dealers.
For advice in cases requiring special
directions, address, giving symptoms,

MRS. BOZENA LEWI8. of Oenaville,

Intervals with terrible pains in my head and B
back, but have been entirely relieved by Wine I
of Cardui." I
