We publish Mr. MeMahan's article in reference to the summer school at Blackville, although there is no good reason why we should do so. There is no justice in asking newspapers to give their space free when all others are paid for their services. We do not suppose very many Bamberg teachers will attend the school, and candidly we see little benefit to be derived from it anyway. The subjects to be taught are grammar, geography, and school management. It is hoped every one who pretends to be a teacher knows grammar and geography, and it takes sound common sense to manage a school. _____ The Midsummer Delineator.

The daintiest dresses and dress accessories are gathered into this number, just suitable in their materials and their makeup for the temporary use to which midsummer clothing is put. The dressmaking article by Mrs. Gorman deals with lace stock-collars and open work of various kinds, boleros, etc., which appear to be more popular than evef this season. The kitchen article for the month describes various cold tomato dishes, summer drinks and fruit salads. Three short stories also appear in the August number: one by Francis Lynde entitled "A Vacation Conscience,"another by Arabella Keuealy, daughter of the famous Dr. Kenealy, entitled "Dr. Fordham's Daughter," and third, a college storj' written by a college girl entitled "The Impressionist Picture." "Uncle Panl" Kistler Dead. Denmark, July 15.?Rev. Paul F. Kistler, a superanuated minister of the Methodist conference, peacefully breathed his last Saturday afternoon at o o'clock. His death was not unexpected, for he _ _. bad outlived his three score and ten, and those who watched by his bedside the last few days of his illness knew full well that the end was near. Rev. Mr. Kistler was a remarkable man 'in that it has been said of him that he never forgot a name or face and possessed a fondness for children, who in return loved him. . Being a Methodist minister his itinerant life carried him to all parts of the State and he possessed the love and confidence of every charge whom he served. This brief announcement of his death will carry sorrow to many hearts. A few years ago he gave up the itinerant ministry and came to his home near Denmark to await the summons of his Master, and when called upon to "warn through the valley of death" he "feared no evil" and peacefully passed away. He leaves a wife and two daughters, Mrs. W. G. Sease, of Orangeburg, and Miss Carro Lee Kistler, of Denmark. ?* In Honor of Miss Annie Brace. Branchville, July 15.?Last Friday evening at the residence of Mr. F. iC Bruce, Sr., was given the richest party of the season, in honor of Miss Annie Bruce, of Bamberg. The home of Mr Bruce is conspicious for the unique arrangements of evening entertainment, and on Friday evening, as on previous occasions, nothing was omitted that could have added to the pleasure of the invited guests. The lovely evergreens and pot plants that adorn the house were beautifully illuminated with lights. At ten o'clock refreshments were served, rings of merry laughter were heard, and mirth and gaiety prevailed. Miss Eva Bruce deserves much credit for the thoughtful manuer in which she entertained her guests. The following were the invited guests: Misses Edith and Jennie Evans, Annie and Jimmie Cooner, Lillie and Leila Berry,' Leila and Bessie Reeves, Eula Byrd, Tinnie Berry, Sadie Whetstone, Annie, Eva, and Cissie Bruce, Mr. and Mrs. J.

The Summer School at Blaekvillo. Editok Thk Bamukkc IIkuai.d: Please aid me in bringing to the attention of the teachers of your county, the summer school for teachers which will open at Blackville 011 July 22ml ami continue its work through August 17th. The principal in char ire will he E. L. Hughes, superintendent oif the graded schools of Greenville, He is one of the Inst schoolmen in the State; has had eminent success in all the county summer schools that he has conducted, and is doing this year line work in the State summer school at Spartanburg. His course in geography includes map drawing and globe making. The work being turned out by his pupils astonishes and delights all that see it. The subjects taught will be grammar, geography, ami school management. The attendance upon the school at Bam-1 berg and the school at Barnwell, hereto-1 fore, has been so small that 1 did not feel warranted in continuing the expense of a ?#??virnte school for each count v. and have combined the schools at a central point in the hope that the attendance there this year will be at least forty. In almost every other county summer school the attendance has ranged from forty to sixty. Should the attendance be large enough to warrant it, I shall send as an assistant to Mr. Hughes to relieve him of teachingthe grammar, Mr. R. K. Taylor, who has lately been chosen to teach in the Blackville graded school, but if the attendance is only about thirty, Mr. Hughes will teach all these three subjects alone. Drawing is a subject that is attracting great attention among progressive teachers. It is quite an advantage in the school room, as well as a delightful accomplishment. The work in the State school and in a few county schools where I have been able to send a drawiug teacher, lias proven that anybody can learn to draw, and especial talent is not a pre-requisite. I have determined to have drawingtaught in the school at Blackville, although there I are only a few counties to which I can afford to send a drawing teacher. The teacher will be Mrs. Fanny Moore, of Barnwell, who as Miss Fanny L. Saunders, has been one of the most successful teachers of art in the State, in previous j summer schools. I urge all of the teachers of the two j couuties to attend this school. The trus-! tees of the districts should visit the school and learn who are the progressive teach- j ers. I earnestly request of the trustees, J that in employing a teacher, they add $10 or $15 to re-imburse the teacher for having attended the summer school. However, whether or not their expenses arc paid for them, the teachers will find that attendance upon the summer school is the best investment they can make for their C r 1 proiessiuuai itu\ autcmuu.

A young couple from Northleach, on a visit to Barnum and Bailey's had succumbed to fatigue, and were seated on a bale of hay in an obscure corner of the menagerie tent. "What do you reckon is the most strange thing we seed?" said the girl. "It's hard to say; but I know what I'd like to be now." "The flying-trapeze man ?" she ventured. "No, not him."

All doctors have tried to cure catarrh by the use of powders, acid gases, inhalers and drugs in paste form. Their powders dry up the mucuous membranes causing them to crack open and bleed. The powerful acids used in the inhalers have entirely eaten away the same membranes that their makers have aimed to cure, while pastes and ointments cannot reach the disease. An old and experienced practitioner who lias for many years made a close study and specialty of the treatment of catarrh, has at last perfected a treatment which when faithfully used, not only relieves at once, but permanently cures catarrh, by removing the cause, stopping the discharges, and curing all inflammation. It is the only remedy known to science that actually reaches the afflicted parts. This wonderful remedy is known as "Snuffles the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure" and is sold at the extremely low price of one dollar, each package containing internal and external medicine sufficient for a full month's treatment and everything necessary to its perfect use. "Snuffles" is the only perfect catarrh cure ever made and is now recognized as the only safe and positive cure for that annoying and disgusting disease. It cures all inflammation quickly and permanently, and is also wonderfully quick to relieve hay fever or cold in the head. Catarrh when neglected often leads to consumption?"Snuffles" will save you if you use it at once.

All nations except Spain. Portugal and Russia calculate their time from the tiieri- j dian of Greenwich, accepting as stand- i ard some even hour meridian east or west of Greenwich. For instance: Western European time, or that of the meridian of Greenwich, is legal in England, Belgium, Holland and Luxftmlui r*nr V 1 li VJ U I Central European time, or one hour east of Greenwich, is legal in Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Kongo Free State, Denmark, Italy, Servia, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland. Eastern European time, or two hours east of Greenwich, is adopted by Bulgaria, Roumania, Natal and Turkey in Europe. Eight hours east of Greenwich applies to the Philippines. Nine hours east of Greenwich Is adopted by central Australia and Japan. Ten hours east of Greenwich Is official In Victoria, Queensland and Tasmania. Eleven and a half hours east has been adopted by New Zealand. The United States, Canada and Mexico have adopted the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth hours west of Greenwich.

THE PIANO AT ITS BEST. Four Times a Year None Too Often to Hare a Piano Toned. "There are plenty of people," said a piano tuner, "who let their pianos go one, two, three years without tuning, and in some cases pianos thus neglected may not get very, very woefully off, but a piano should be tuned every three months. That would be none too often to keep It in order. "As a matter of fact, a piano begins to get out of tune again at once after it has been tuned. How could it be otherwise? Nothing stands still. This difference would at first be so slight as scarcely to be perceptible to any but the practiced and sensitive ear of an expert tuner, but It is there. Doesn't a clock begin to run down as soon as it is wound up? Four times a year a piano ought to be tuned, but only a comparatively small percentage of people give their pianos that attention which is needed to keep them in their most perfect loveliness of tone. Piano makers and dealers of course are looking after the tuning of their pianos in stock scrupulously and carefully all the time. You don't hear pianos out of tune in a piano wareroom. They never let them get out of tune there. They aim, in fact, at keeping them as near perfection as they can. "We are pretty sure to find in every new piano something pleasing and attractive. Some share at least of this pleasing quality comes from its being in perfect tune. In fact, to keep any piano at its best it must be kept in tune, and to attain the results most satisfactory to allj to the owner and the neighbors alike, a tuning tonic should be administered to every piano not less than four times a year."?New York Sun.

PUZZLES FORJUDGES SIMPLE WORDS THAT HAVE TANGLED UP ENGLISH COURTS. Some Term* of Almost Everyday l'*e That Proved to lie Too Profonnil For the Intelligence of the Learned Bench and Bar. In a case that came before l famous lord justice some time ago the counsel for the prosecution in the evidence had to mention a "blouse." The judge asked what a blouse was, and it was explained that this was part of a lady's dross. But the case came to a dead stop for the time, for the judge did not know which part, and after some hesitation the barrister admitted that ho wasn't sure. Several learned brothers gave their opinion, some opining ?i hlnnso was the tinner half of a lady's costume. while others insisted it must be the lower half. The entire court, tilled with learned celebrities whose heads held all the laws of Britain, from pitch and toss to manslaughter, argued it out, but nobody was sure. The judge thought it was the lower half, but a junior barrister who had lately been married said he thought that that half was called a skirt, but did not feel certain. At length ? lady was called, who set the court right. Another odd dilemma happened not long ago when in the Ilobson "horse faking" case the word "fetlock" arose. A fetlock, as everybody knows, is the ankle of a horse. The court asked what it was, however, and the prosecuting counsei was nonplused. The witnesses were out of court save one, and he knew* nothing, xne junge thought a fetlock was a sort of hind knee, otherwise "hock," but one learned brother was quite certain it was the lock of hair tlmt hangs over a horse's forehead. The defendant's solicitor opined it was that part of the harness which slips over the tail, the crupper, and another legal celebrity agreed with the judge. Finally the court had to call a stable groom to clear up the mystery. In a case that was settled some years since the recorder was brought up short by a phrase used by the counsel for defense, who spoke of a transaction concerning a pound of "blacklcad." This is a common and useful article, but the counsel on being asked to explain its nature said it was a black substance used for boot polishing. The recorder thought it was a mineral used in lead pencils, but another barrister asserted it to be a "tough kind of lead used for rooting houses." The case was brought to a standstill, and one lawyer, unsurpassed iu legal knowledge, declared that blacklead was a elang term for pig irou as produced in the north country. A fourth expounder of the law vaguely suggested it was the opposite of white lead, and finally a domestic servant put the court right, and the assembly at last learned that it was used for blacking stoves. Another dilemma was produced a little while ago on the western circuit by the Introduction of the words "dry nurse" in an address to the court. This , bewildered the judge, who asked If a dry nurse was a nurse who dried babies after they had been washed. That solution did not occur to the learned counsel, who, after some hesitation, said he thought it meant a nurse who was not addicted to drinking and therefore most suitable to look after infants. Nobody seemed to know what the term really meant though several more guesses were made, the last of them that a dry nurse was one who could not amuse children. The court was again nonplused by a statement made that somebody concerned in the case supposed to suffer from melancholia -vras really "as jolly as a sandboy." The judge wanted to know what a sandboy was in order to form some Idea as to the exact degree of jollity involved. The counsel could not tell him, though one suggested il was a boy who sanded the roads and the other thought it might be a lad building sand castles on the seashore, The whole court stopped to discuss what a sandboy was and why he was jolly, but they could not solve the prob lem. It is hardiy believable that anybody should not.know what a "snaffle" Is but a London magistrate recently deslr ed to be informed, and nobody coulc tell him what a snaffle might be. A solicitor thought it was the same thinj as the "curb," and the clerk had ar idea It was a kind of cold in the heac which horses caught, causing them t( snuffle a good deal.?London Answers.
