A small boy placed some pepper on a stove during the session of court in Greenville last week, and court had to adjourn for awhile. It wouldn't be a bad idea to serve the legislature this sort of a trick p provided it would produce the same result. gfe The most sensible thing the general lljtw. assembly has done in some time was the passing of the bill providing for biennial gpvj sessions of the legislature. This matter jffipp . must be submitted to the people before becoming a law, but It is safe to say that a large majority of the tax-payers will Bfept? favor it. ^ There is a bill before the legislature proj&L;: Tiding for an amendment to the constitution in the matter of forming new counp'// ties. The bill provides that in the formaElk tionof new counties, old counties shall not be cut within ten miles of the court house. It is claimed by some new county Bi&V- advocates that this bill is a blow at them, BBR-. but it ought to pass. New counties should : be formed with due regard for the old ip territory, and the limit should be even - more than ten miles from the old county We notice that several of our exchanges pfe\- in this State are carrying a large adverhELV tiseznent of "Radios," sent them by John Ipc Baillie, of 812 Drexel building, Philadelshi>r. phia, Pa. We received the same proposi^ refused it except for cash in - 9P& advance payment. We would advise our ' BP brother editors not to do the work unless Bfct, they get cash in advance, as we have |fe ' investigated the financial standing of the jfigy concern, and it was not at all satisfactory. flB|?yWe feel sure those who do run the advertising will never get paid. We publish information for the protection of the r country newspapers, and it is a rule all of ' p. ; ns should adopt for mutual protection dead-beats and swindlers. |;v" The Beaafort board of trade, in adopting c resolutions condeming lawlessness, said: "We believe that the material as well as fp?' the moral welfare of the State is being & Jeopardized." The Beaufort board of trade ^ . is sound in this belief. Lawlessness injures any community but particularly I'. such sections as are dependent to a large g&gf:' -measure on foreign capital and intelligent foreign labor for development. It is very properly the province of every trade B1& . or commercial organization of this State !>ut itself on record against all kinds oi lessness; and for the members of sncb inizations to aid actively in creating ntiment for law and order.?The ;e. 11 of which is well said and in which fully concur. Personally we have led along this line to the people of county. Bamberg town and county suffered materially from the spirit of lessness.

Nice old lady with her too. Hope they'll come in here." Next moment his hopes were realized, as the two women entered the r car, guided by an obsequious porter, i who deposited a dress suit case an<^ an . umbrella in the section opposite. "Be here about ten minutes, ma'am," he said in answer to a question from the elder; "got to cut in some sleepers and a diner." "Thank you. Better sit down, Aunt Bessie." But the elder woman shook her head. > "I do wish you liad some one to go with you, Dorothy!" she exclaimed in ^ wrvt- Koln no r. louat QUWUfU WUiu UVL UCIJJ Vi?tuvu4 , ing. "I can't bear to have you go alone. Your uncle never would have let you if he hadnt been sick in bed. You're sure you don't mind?" | "I don't mind the least bit in the world, auntie. We bachelor girls have to learn to do for ourselves." "Bachelor girls, indeed!" The elder lady sniffed, while Howard felt an unaccountable thrill of pleasure pass through him. "Old maids we used to call them. A girl's a girl, no matter what she says, and I don't like to see 1 one traveling alone. It wasn't considered proper in my young days." I "I know," return**! the girl softly. I "But traveling has changed so since then, even down in this dear little out of the way corner of the south. Why, what could harm me?" . I "Oh, nothing, I suppose, but I don't like it You wouldn't even take a lunch with you," she added irrelevantly, her hospitable southern heart agj grieved. "It seems so inhospitable to send any one away without something to eat" "You're awfully good. Aunt Bessie; but indeed, it wasn't worth while. I'll I get dinner and brealkfast in the dining car and be in New York for lonch," I A sudden clanging made the elder woman start "Gracious!" she exclaimed. "Til be carried off! Goodby, Dorothy. Write as soon as you get to I New York. I'll be anxious till I hear." I The two hurried to the platform, J where the giri stood, smiling and waving until the train was well under way. So well under way was it indeed, that I as she turned to en ter the car a sudden lurch threw hex violently to one I side and made her grasp the rail to steady herself. As she did so her puree, hung to her belt by a chain, flew open and sent moat of its contents at large through the yet unelosed doors of the vestibule. Unaware of this, however, Miss Vernon walked to her seat, glancing around I her just in time to see Howard watching her. Both were thinking of the good lady's anxious hospitality, and before they could recover themselves they had smiled squarely Into one another's eyes. ! With quickly stiffened lips Dorothy sank into her seat As she did so her puree swung forward into her lap, exposing Its emptiness to her v startled gaze. With a gasp of dismay she seized and examined it Her ticket was safe in an lnqer compartment but every cent of her money was gone. It did not take her long to decide on the moment of her loss nor the hopelessness of repairing it Miss Vernon was a very independent young woman who on more than one occasion in the four years that had elapsed since she I fcn/* Ka?mn fn Mrn hftf own hwuul hfld seen her funds depleted nearly to the vanishing point, yet never before had she found herself entirely penniless. There was nothing to be done, however. To telegraph to Aunt Bessie for money would be to frighten that lady almost to death, and there was no one else on whom she felt at liberty to call She must simply resolve to make the best of her journey, all twenty-four hours of it without money. Meanwhile Howard had been watching the girl out of the corner of his eye, admiring her more every moment He had noted the look of vexation that froze the smile with which she had unintentionally favored him and had promptly averted his eyes, as if in hopes that the girl's wrath might glance on nis Droaa snouiuers. xiius, lurueu away, he had missed seeing her discovery of her open purse and her consequent consternation. When he had ventured to look again, she was staring straight ahead of her with what seemed to him a most inscrutable expression. In reality she was thinking of the luncheon she had refused and pondering the great truth that even a modern dining car is of little avail unless one had the price of a meal As the afternoon wore away Howard began to curse the conventionalities. Here he was within a few feet of this peerless girl, as he had already begun to term her, and yet to all practical purposes was miles and miles away. He had always been slow to scrape acquaintance, even with men, and, so far as he could remember, had never in his I iu?

After awhile a waiter passed through the car announcing dinner. Howard was hungry, but determined to wait until Dorothy should go in. The car might be crowded and he might be . ' - ';v v V ^^ ;x>\;>p^ ' : 'V-* * .-/ ; '* v compelled to sit with her at the same table, where be might hope that the chances of the meal might enable him to address her. But waft as be might. Dorothy showed no signs of budging, and long after the last call for dinner had been circulated he was forced to go | in alone. While dining be wondered over tb situation. The girl had eaten nothing since she came on board the train, nearly six hours before. She bad no lunch | with her, not even a box of candy. She was a solid- healthy eirl. not by any means one of those fragile beauties who live on air, and should have had an ai> petite to correspond. What the dickens could be the matter? The next morning was the same. Dorothy sat motionless, looking in the eyes of the by this time besotted youth lovelier than ever. As a matter of fact, the lack of her morning coffee had given the girl a headache, while the lack of other food made her savage and miserable. At last came a crisis. Jost as the waiter passed through with his "Last call for breakfast in the dining car!" the train stopped, not at a station, but out in a field. After ten minutes had crept by without sign of movement, Howard, who had been waiting for breakfast as be had waited for dinner, went out to investigate Soon he came back and went straight up to Dorothy with determination in his eyes. "I b(g your pardon," be said, with a composure that astonished himself, "but we have been stopped by a wreck across the track and will be delayed at leaiat six hours. They are going to cut off the diner and send It back as soon ns breakfast is over. If you want anything to eat you had better get it now, before it is too late." Six bom's longer! The tears came into Dorothy's eyes, and her lids quivered pathetically. How could she bear it? "Thank you," she said as bravely as she could. "Thank you. But I'm not hungry." Not hungry. Howard stared at h?r incredulously. To his certain knowledge she had eaten nothing for tweoVtrniopu I Thft thlllff Ijf'iuur uvAitoi ifv\ uinipt^ u was preposterous. He glanced at bar white cheeks, then with sudden suspicion at her pocket book. "I haven't luid breakfast myself yet," be said. "Won't you take pity on me and be my guest? I can't bear to eat alone." For an instant the girl gazed at him while a mist swam before her eyas. "Thank you so much," she ^said humbly. "I?I lost all my money overboard a few minutes after we start*1 yesterday, and I'm nearly starved to death." - ? A year later Mr. and Mrs. Howard Monroe in the newest of new clothes, were taking the same trip northwaid. Aunt Bessie bad just left them, and they had settled themselves for the twenty-four hour trip before them. Howard turned to his month old bride reflectively. "Just to think," he said softly, "if I hadn't spoken to ^ou a year ago we shouldn't have been Ifcfry today. I hesitated a long time before I ventured." "A long time! I should think so." There was much emphasis in the words. Howard appeared startled, "loo long, was it?" he asked. "If I hadn't spoken when I did what would you have done?" "Done? Well," reflectively, "if you had delayed much longer I believe I should have asked yon myself?and hated you ever afterward!" "Instead or'? He paused questioningly. Dorothy looked at him smilingly. "Instead of"?she repeated roguishly? "instead of?suppose you guess!" A Tiilker'? XiMdrentun;. The following story sounds as if it could not possibly be true, yet Ixtie it is: A man who prides hlnwlf on having a knowledge that might literally be willed encyclopedic was in the company of a set of men who work so hard at a rule that they do not take life very seriously in their hours of leisure. ,He began to address them on literature, and yon will presently be able to imagine the sort of stuff he talked. It was not long before he touched on George Meredith and expressed opinions which might have caused an outburst. Instead of this, some one suggested deferentially that he talked too generally; that he would be better comprehended if he illustrated his vi?rws by a reference to any one of the novels. He thought the suggestion a wise one and left the choice of the boob to his audience. The original proposer of this eminently reasonable plaa immediately suggested "Tess of the D'Urbervllles," and the other went ahe-ad, obligingly accepting the choice. What he said does not need to be recorded, but it is rather notable that to this day he does not know the trick that was being played on him because he Is being preserved for some future occasion. ?London Post.
