KSTA15L1SHKJ) APRIL, 1891.
Thursday, Dec. 7, 1916.
The Herald this week received an
account 01 an incident in the Colston
section. As the incident seems like
a matter for private settlement,
rather than public airing. The Herald
is not printiug the article.
You can't satisfy some people. A
few months ago, the average farmer
would have been glad to sell his cotton
for the rest of his life for 20
cents a pound. Now it is said they
ought to get thirty-five cents for it.
It- is with pleasure and interest
that the friends of Carlisle school
will learn that she is to receive $15,
000 from the Methodist educational
fund now being raised in this State.
The Methodist conferences have undertaken
the task of raising $300,000
for her educational institutions.
Sixty thousand dollars of this amount
has been raised, and it is contemplated
that the remainder will be raised
by next April. Carlisle's portion will
enable her to pay off all indebtedness,
and put the school in position
to rank with the best schools of her
class in the South. Carlisle has very
bright prospects. and Bamberg
should be proud to be the home of
such a school.
We have seen a great deal in the
papers lately about saving waste pa
per. For the information of those
interested in this matter we will state
that not many days ago we took up
the matter of buying a paper baler
from one of the houses we deal with.
Paper has to be baled to be shipped.
We found that the baler would cost
$12 in Baltimore, and as a baler is j
rather a heavy piece of machinery,
the freight would be probably $3.00
or more, making a total cost of $15
for the baler. The waste paper
which would be accumulated in our
office is worth 70 cents per 100
pounds in Baltimore, and we believe
the freight rate to Baltimore on this
class of freight is 42 cents per 100
pounds, leaving 2S cents per hundred
net. In other words, as soon as wej
couM save up about 5,300 pounds of|
waste paper, we make enough to pay,
for our baler. If any of our friendsamong
the publishers have been sue-!
cessful in saving up waste paper, we
would like to know of it. ~\

, Famous Explorer to Enter Army After
Rescuing Polar Companions.
Sir Ernest Shackleton, Antarctic
I
explorer, was the guest of honor at
the Commonwealth club's luncheon
at th9 Palace hotel.
As a special courtesy to the dis-;
tinguished guest, the women mem-1
bers of the club were invited to at/
tend.
The pole hunter gave a vivid description
of his recent trip into the!
frozen South, which started from'
I
London two years ago. He was in
command or a double expedition, ten
members of which are still marooned
'
on Ross island, in the western part'
of the Antarctic region.
His personal party is back in civi-j
lization, all of those composing that'
section of the expedition having safe- j
Xy reached London.
Sir Ernest announced that it is his;
purpose to enter the British army assoon
.as the marooned adventurers
j TT ;i . J _ rx _ !
are rescued. ne sanea, aner nis
brief stay here, for New Zealand to!
begin his final dash for Ross island?
the last chapter in the "expedition
of 1914."
The most salient characteristic of
the intrepid explorer is his modesty.
It seemed to be positively painful to
him to submit to questions from interviewers,
who persisted in inquiring
about ice packs, frozen air and
midnight days.
He spoke with a smile about the
experience of ten months without a
bath or even removing his clothing,
but he almost squirmed when asked
to explain the indomitable impulse
which has kept him exploring for the
last 15 years.
"It gets into the blood, I suppose,"
was his comment. "There are certain
things oue sets up as jobs to be
accomplished, and one doesn't rest
easily until they are done."
Sir Ernest referred to the war as
"that big push in civilization's centre."
and he displayed a positive
yearning to get into its midst.?San
Francisco Bulletin.
Different Methods.
r
"Which would you rather vote for,
an old-fashioned politician or an upto-date
reformer?"
"I believe I would prefer the oldfashioned
politician."
"But he's apt to be crooked."
"I don't care. He has a courteous
way of soliciting my vote that tickles
my vanity, while these reformers who
think they are battling for a righteous
cause don't stand on ceremony
and rudely demand my vote."?Life.

BABBIE A BASEBALL FAX.
"Peter Pan's" Author Changed His
Boom to Watch a Scoreboard.
When Sir James Matthew Barrie
was^ last in this country (he came to
see Charles Frohman in 1914) he
was dissatisfied with his suite in the
Knickerbocker and changed to rooms
in another part of the hotel. His
reason for doing this was that from
the window of the quarters first assigned
to him he could not get a good
view of the electrical scoreboard on
the Times building. The world's series
was being played, and the author
of "Peter Pan" spent many hours
breathlessly watching the ball of |
light speed across the mimic diamond.
This revelation of Barrie as a base
ball "fan" is one of many interesting
intimate views of the great
Scotch writer obtained by one of the
very few Americans who have penetrated
beyond the barriers of Barrie's
shyness?Isaac F. Marcosson,
the biographer of Charles Frohman.
No one in this country, with possible
exception of Frohman, knew why

room or that "he was interested in
baseball. Except for a visit to* Col.
Roosevelt at Oyster Bay and his
business conferences, Barrie succeeded
in living an almost hermitlike
life in the very heart of New
York city.
And in London and in his native
Scotland Barrie has always been as
3hy and elusive as he was in New
York. When he was in the United
States, according to a story he told
Mr. Marcosson, only one interview
with him appeared in a newspaper,
and that interview he himself wrote
without seeing a reporter. In London
it is impossible to interview
him; it is difficult for his friends
and for people who have business
dealings with him to find his whereabouts
or, having located him, to
get by his formidable Scotch butler.?Joyce
Kilmer, in New York

Eat Rice, Grow Fat and Save Money.
This is a free advertisement for
rice. Rice is one of the few food
nrnrlnptc tliot hoc nat 51 ft VJ1T1 PPfl in
price. You can get about four
pounds of rice for a quarter. A
quarter's worth of rice will carry you
further than 50 cenOs worth of beef.
A quarter's worth of rice will carry
you further than 50 cents worth of
flour. v
Rice is a wholesome food. Fashion
caused a reduction of the greatest
food value in rice requiring it to be
polished. There ought to be a law
forbidding the whitening of flour and
polishing of rice. The law should
be so that the whole grain should be
ground into flour. People would
have better teeth and better digestions.
But this article is about cheap food
and not about the business of keeping
healthy. *
Rice is the chief diet of about a i
third nf thp nonulation of the world. !
The rice-eating Jap whipped the filling
out of the tallow and flour-eating
Russian. A man can go further on
a rice diet than on any other single
article of food that is grown.
So, if you do not want to spend
all your money for food, buy rice.
If you want to have a variety in
your diet, and that cheaply, buy
sweet potatoes. And if you want a
dessert buy some molasses. Rice,
sweet potatoes and molasses are the
only food products we know of that
are not high. v Eat nee, it is healthful;
and eat rice, it is cheap.?Commercial

GIRLS ARE CABBAGE QUEENS.
Four Young Women Earn Small Fortune
as Vegetable Growers.
Four Westmoreland county young
women, daughters of Mr. and Mrs.
C. H. Smith, of Ruffsdale, have established

from a two-acre plot of cabbage.
The Misses Smith, the eldest of
whom is 18, now have a bank account
of $900, with accounts due
from Pittsburg commission men
amounting to $900, and a fourth of,
their cabbage yet remain to be cut
and marketed. Buyers estimate the
value of the entire field at about
$2,400.
Early this spring Smith turned
tlio twft.ac.rft nlnt nver to his dausrh
ters. telling them to make any use
of it they desired. The girls, after
closely scanning the market reports
for weeks, decided to grow cabbages.
They set about IS,000 plants.
When the time arrived to cut cabbage
the scarcity of the vegetable
and skyhigh sauerkraut quotations
made the realization of $2,4 00 for
the two acres merely a matter of
patience and good salesmanship.?

FAMOUS TEXOK TO HE HEARD.
In "Gypsy Love" Role He Created, at
Academy of Music, Orangeburg.
To all who are looking forward to
a musical treat extraordinary in the
presentation at Orangeburg of the
big Andreas Dippel production of
"Gypsy Love" it will be keenly interesting
news to know that Arthur Albro,
the famous young Russian tenor
who originated the stellar gypsy role
of "Jozsi" in America will sing the
role.
Aibro is the wonderful young star
who was largely responsible for the
sensational success in America of
"Gypsy Love." Outside of grand
opera he probably is the greatest of
all light operatic tenors, in the United
States. He is specially blessed
with genius in addition to his wonderful
voice having abilities that
rank him as a great actor, talents for
the violin that hail him a virtuoso
and good looks that are the desperation
of young matinee audiences. Remarkably
enough it was a combination
of every one of these requirements
demanded by the role of
"Jozsi" in "Gypsy Love," and the
display of versatility it permitted undoubtedly
did most to establish him
as the great star he now is. v
Albro is a native of Odessa, his
father having been a tenor singer in
the Imperial Opera at St. Petersburg,
Moscow, and Odessa. Albro as a
youngster developed a remarkably
fine barytone voice but gave it little
heed because of a youthful desire to
become a great dentist. He was taking
general studies in Milan when the
rare qualities of his voice were first
discovered by an impresario, ,and
ptKonoralv an r\n <rV> if \v a c at a Hmf>
OtI aii^UAJ VUVUQ1A AV >. V.V ? vaMMV
when his voice was changing. A
Milan producer took him in charge
and started him in operatic work
with the result that within a few
months he had developed the glorious,
low -tenor voice that he now has,
and had won his spurs in grand
opera.
When Albro appeared in America
he was just in time, because all the
United States was being searched for
a youth of his unusual combination
of abilities to creat the "Gypsy
Love" role.

Meant It as a Joke.
"My husband's a brute," sobbed
the pretty Lewiston (Me.) bride.
"What has he done?" asked her
sympathetic friend.
"I told him today I had a letter
saying mother was ill and couldn't
come to visit us."
"And what did he do?"
"He said he said he hoped it
was nothing trivial."?Puck.
CONGRATULATIONS FOR BLACK
DRUG CO.
Success is bound to come where a
square deal is given, and that is what
Mr. R. W. Rhodes intends to give the
people of Bamberg. Mr. Rhodes in
talking the situation over last night,
said that even after three days work
he could see a record breaking sale
of Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy in our
city. First because the people with
whom he had talked seemed progressive
and willing to take a thing when
well vouched for, and secondly because
he had selected the Black Drug
Co. as his medium of imparting what
he had to offer the people of Bamberg.
The sales so far for Mrs. Joe
Person's Remedy are very gratifying
and day by day as one feels the
system undergoing a complete rejuvination,
you cannot and will not
help telling your friends of your feelings.
Naturally when we are improved
from any medicine we want
our friends to get the same benefits,
and by the way that is one of our
strong points, not newspaper advertising,
but mouth to mouth advertising.
Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy is a
vegetable preparation and is so blendI
ed as to render it a harmless remedy
of great value, for the treatment of
Rheumatism, Chronic Malaria. Nervous
Indigestion and other ailments
of a like nature, which come from a
rundown system. You will find Mrs.
Joe Person's Remedy instead of producing
a doped or over stimulated effect,
merely tones and builds up the
system gradually producing flesh,
color and strength.
During this special campaign, as
a starter, Mr. Rhodes has decided to
sell Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy at the

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.

First. That while we deeply deplore
his loss and his taking away in
the flower of young manhood, we bow
