Revival Services.
[Southern Christian Advocate.]
Dear Brother Nettles: We have
.greatly enjoyed a series of protracted
meetings on our charge.
At Blackville, beginning on the
night of the fourth Sunday in September,
and ending on the night of
the first Sunday in October, the pasfor
preached six times, Brother R. A.
Tongue also preached six sermons,
Rev. McLees, of the Presbyterian
Church, preached one sermon, and
my old friend, Dr. J. D. Pitts, paster
of the Baptist Church, with a
goodly number of his people, were
present helping in song and prayer.
We had no large increase in members,
but a good meeting?a toning
up of the spiritual life of the com

munity. The preaching of Brother
Tongue was in great power. It made
a pr found impression on the community.
It there is a man in our
Church, who ought to be cut loose
from all other work and put in the
evangelistic work. Bob Yongue is
that man. At this meeting the attention
was good and the singing was
Inspiring.
At Bethel Park, in Denmark, we
have had a most gracious meeting,
beginning the night of the first Sunday,
in October, and ending the second
Sunday in October. The pastor
preached twice and Brother Harry
Danner preached ten times?good
congregations and good results attended
the services. Quite a number
joined the Church and the Church

was greatly quickened. Brother Danner
is a most efficient helper in revival
meetings. He is quite young,
yet preaches with ability and acceptability.
He has a powerful command
of language, his memory is remarkable,
and above all he lives close to
God. He has two more years in col
lege. With faitnfumess ana continued
humility and studiousness God
will make him a chosen messenger
to many. I wish we had more results
of this meeting, but rejoice in what
God has done for us, and look for
still greater things.

REJECTED SUITOR SUES.
Howard Smith Wants $20,000 Damages
from Miss Knapp.
"She jilted me in a cold-blooded
fashion," said Howard E. Smith, the
Dartmouth athlete, of Boston, on Sunday,
"and I am suing her for $20,00u.
She evidently wants a man who can
spend a fortune buying her diamonds
and automobiles. Miss Knapp has
plenty of wealthy relatives in New
York, Boston and Baltimore and I
will make it interesting 'or them all
when my case comes for trial. They
made a great fuss over me when they
thought I had plenty of money, but
when they discovered that I must
work for my living and had only
brains and physique they dropped me
in a jiffy."
Apparently not the least bit worried
because she has been made the
defendant in a breach of promise
suit brought by the former track

captain at Dartmouth and holder of
many athletic records, Miss Orithia
Wales Knapp was riding about Newburyport
on Sunday in company with
James J. Healy, her almost constant
companion nowadays, a graduate of
Yale Law school of the class of 1908.
Neither will deny the rumor they are
to wed.
Miss Knapp is very handsome, tall,
with blue eyes, brown-haired and vivacious.
Her father, James O. Knapp,
is wealthy. He is a retired sea captain
and made his fortune in the eastern
trade. He has retained counsel
to fight the su't brougnt Dy smitn
against his daughter.
In Dartmouth Smith several times
did 100 yards in 10 1-5 and five years
ago represented the Boston Athletic
association in a relay race against
the New York Athletic club. For

He graduated from Dartmouth in
1905 and was then captain of the
track team and athletic leader in the
college.

among the arriving delegates to the
35th annual convention of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union
to have that city chosen as convention
city for next year. More than
200 delegates and several hundred

REV. T. U. COX
Local Preacher
"I predict that in 10 years the
'.prohibition movement will cover the
entire nation," said Mrs. Stevens of
Portland, Me., president of the union,
to-day. "It is not a spasmodic effort
but a substantial and healthy gain
which can not be checked by any
amount of opposition. We now have
nine States?Alabama, Arkansas,
Georgia, Kansas, Maine, North Carolina,
North Dakota and Oklahoma?
which have gone for prohibition,
and others are on the road."
Senator B. R. Tillman is the largest

j Jack London in the South Seas.
; The little Snark, in which Jack
! London is going around the world
: for the Woman's Home Companion,
' is seeing some strange sights. Not
| the least of these is the hideous elephantiasis
or' the South Sea Island.
"We sat on the cool porch, on Bihaura's
best mats, while dinner was
preparing, and at the same time met
the villagers. In twos and threes
and groups they strayed along. Here
i would be a comely woman of magnificent
proportions, with the port of
a queen, yet marred by one arm four
times?or a dozens times?the size of
the other. Beside her might stand a
six-foot man, erect, mighty muscled,
bronzed, with the body of a god, yet
with feet -and calves so swollen that
they ran together, forming legs,
shapeless, monstrous, that were for

all the world like elephant legs.
"No one seems really to know the
; cause of the South Sea elephantiasis.
One theory is that it is caused, by the
drinking of polluted water. Another
theory attributes it to inoculation
through mosquito bites. A third
theory charges it to predisposition
: plus the process of acclimatization.
On the other hand, no one that stands
I in finicky dread of it and similar dis!
eases can afford to travel in the j
! South Seas. There will be occasions
i when such a one mu,st drink water,
j There may also be occasions when the
| mosquitos let up biting. But every
I precaution of the finicky one will be
i useless. If he runs barefoot across
[ the beach to take a swim he will
tread where an elephantiasis case
! trod a few minutes before. If he
I closets himself in his own house, yet

Papeiti two known lepers run stalls,
and heaven alone knows through
what channels arrive at that market
the daily supplies of fish, fruit,
meat and vegetables. The only happy
way to go through the South Seas
is with a careless poise, without apprehension,
and with a placid, childlike
faith in the resplendent fortune
of your own particular star. When
you see a woman afflicted with elephantiasis
wringing out cream from
cocoanut meat with her naked hands,
drink and reflect how good is the
cream, forgetting the hands that
pressed it out. Also, remember that
diseases such as elephantiasis and
leprosy do not seem to be caught by
contact."
There are several candidates for
superintendent of education in Lexington
county, among the number
being Rev. E. L. Lybrand, of New
Brookland, a prominent Lutheran
minister.
