How to Treat a lie.
Ps pre&y li a rd to know how
treat ti li?Nivlieii /?'siri1
yourself Yon can't go out ol
"our way to deny it, because
hat puts you on the defensive,
and sending the truth after a
lie that's got a running start is
like trying to round up a stain
peded herd of steers while the
scare is on them. Lies are great
travelers, and are welcome visi
tors in a good many homes and
no questions asked. Truth tra
vels slowly, lias to prove its
idenity, and then a lot of people^
hesitate to turn out an agreea
ble stranger to make room tor
it.
About t ia! only way I know
to kill ti lie is to live the truth
When your credit, is attacked'
tion't hollier to deny the rumors,
"nit discount your bills. When
you arc attacked unjustly, avoid
the abpearence of evil, but avoid
also the a ripeara nee of being too
good-that is- better than usu
al. Surmise and suspicion feed
on the unusual, and when a man
goes about his ? usiness along
the usual rill gt bey soon fade
away for lack of mirishmcnt.

"Now," said the bridegroom
to the bride when they return
ed from their honeymoon trip
"let us have a clear understan

married life. Are you (lie pres

"I want to be neither presi
dent nor vice-president." she
answered; "I will be content
with a subordinate position."

Tho Hon. C. 8. MCCALL died
uddeuly after n brief illness on the
norning of the 31st day of Decena

telegraphed the Lieut-Governor,'
Hon. John T. Sloan, and he tele
graphed his personal sympathy and
stated that he had appointed ve
senators to attend the funeral.
Monday, the 2d day of January,
1905, at ll o'clock was appointed
br the funeral, and the body lay in
;he parlor of the residence of the|j
leceased Saturday, Sunday and un-j
iii Monday morning ll, and people
locked in great numbers to view the
*emain8. As soon as tho death wat
inuounccd every shop and placo oi
ousiness in the town spontaneously
dosed and people stood in knots on
;he street corners and talked of the!
lreadful calamity. Large numbers'^
of colored people sought to get a\
last look at their deceased friend.^
Floral offerings came in profusion,?
made of the most beautiful flowers^
in artistio designs. Telegrams carne*!
from many private and official ?j
sources expressing sympathy for the v.
family of the deceased and the citi-|
zeus of the county. The days werea
clear and pleasant, giving all an op-|
portunity to show their respect andi
love for the deceased.
Monday morning was somewhat!
cloudy but the crowds began to gn-j?
?her in town and visit the tomb inf
which the body was to rest at am
early' hour, and, before thc cortege|
left the residence, the streets werc|
lined with n vast concourse of pco-5
pie from all sections of the county!
md adjoining towns. Vehicles werel
everywhere to be seen in unusually
large numbers, sind thousands of
people were present to testify to
their love and respect for the de
ceased. They passed in a stream
into the residence and viewed thc
remains, slowly passing out as if?
reluctant to leave. The Masons!
l*j^rf^ present in unusually large)

mains and biny-4h?m according to jj

The chief of police mounted on
i handsome iron grey horse had to

people gathered so thickly about tho|
way as to impede its progress.
No man has ever had such a fu-i

of that church, niter whioh the ma-,
