We often fail to take advantage of the discoveries men have made in the performance of great works. * * * * The public square remains unimproved in the face of the frequent recommendations of the grand jury and the complaints of citizens. * * * * What you see before you in all the forms of life infesting the earth is the survival of the fittest. An instrument which cannot stand the strain must be replaced by something better. * * * * More and more the farmers are learning how to guard against misfortunes that come every year in one form or another. Wc believe in all men using every faculty for the achievement of success. Make success as sure as possible. * * * * Work with the hands without the proper use of the brain to guide it is almost useless, if not often disastrous. Always take the required amount of time to plan, and in that way make the work effective. + * * * There is a great difference in theory and practice. But both of these are absolutely necessary to accomplishment, for the man who starts out in any undertaking without a theory is the same as a man insane. Still the theory alone will never do and a man should be ever ready in the exercise of a careful judgment to explode his theory and learn the truth by actual practice. * * + * In our opinion there is a wrong notion in the minds of many as to the value of exercise to health and long life. What does exercise amount to when taken only with a view to restore health to the body or the mind ? It helps in such a case to keep the mind centered on thoughts more or less blue. The true rule we think is to be found in the statement that the human body needs to be ex ercised, the mind as well as the body, in some pursuit in which the subject is greatly interested. Those who carry the exorcise fad too far in order to attain great physical strength and those who do it only for regaining health lack the true incentive which should spur one on to action. The athletic hardly ever attains great age. Some of them die with consumption. * In April the "patent medicine' (?) tonic (?) flourishes. As the first warmth of spring brought a feeling of lasiti'de, the farmer's wife in older days would go searching through BpfejF - y Have You Poul Cure the liver and you cure the bi all poultry troubles are due to a disoi Thousands of poultry raisers who us< round to keep their flocks in good h< recommend Bee Dee ??? I It's a Liver Medicine. I Also a strengthing Tonic. the wods for "yarbs" from which to :nako a brew as a tonic for the whole family. The city man' feeling the laziness of "spring fever" coming over him, brought from the corner drug-store a 4tf-cent package ot uuiDoc" Somebody's spring tonic, consisting of the same useless "yarbs," a liberal dose of pure alcohol, and perhaps a touch of strychnin. Hut things are changing; there are not so many taking "spring tonics" as in the older days. Men have learned, says The Journal of the American Medical Asociation, that the best spring tonics are the gifts of a beneficient Nature. A full breath of fresh spring air, a brisk walk along a grass-grown road, a plunge into the cool waters of the old swimming-hole ?if the water is pure and cold?or the morning shower if in the city' fresh and green food, or the pursuit fter a bounding golf-ball over a springy course?those are real invigorators, true tonics. * * * + The way in which the other nations of the world took hold of the mediation idea as to a settlement of the controversy between the United States and Mexico, shows that the tendency among me great nations 01 the world to-day is toward peace and the prevention of war. A mighty smart man said that in the course of a few years there would be peace among all of the nations of the earth, a id that this universal peace would last until the end of the time. War is costly. Let alone the expense to, the individual by wa yof loss of time, and the loss of dollars and cents to the nation at large; the loss of life in modern warfare is a serious matter for consideration. For many years the smartest men of the time have | remained awake at nights to study out new engines of destruction, the quickest way to deal out death in wholesale form and according to regular line and system. For the reason that the nations arc preparing to wipe out one another in case war becomes necessary, and because it pays to have peace and not strife even in the smallest affairs of life, every thinking man or woman will encourage the great modern movement for universal peace. IN iMKMORIAM. On February 20, 1914, at his home near Port Harrellson, Mr. Sam Har- | per fell asleep in Jesus. On his seventy-seventh birthday this aged Christian obeyed the summons? Come up higher and "straightway entered into the palace of the King." Fifteen months previous we laid away his beloved wife and the community mourn the passing of this 'venerable pair who for fifty-seven years lived and worked togther. Not only in their happy home where seven stalwart boys and one fair girl j were reared to honored maturity, but j in social and religious circles was ; there influence felt. When the civil | war began "Uncle Sam enlisted in 10th S. C. Regiment. Afterwards on recovery joined Company A or B ! 2Gth S. C. Regiment and served till surrender. Conspicoous for his splendid bravery he was personally complimented by his commanding officer after a heavy engagement. For t many years a consitcnt member of Methodist church, he died unwavcr- ! ing and strong in the faith. His sor- 1 rowing children look forward to a ' happy reunion. He leaves eight children, Messrs. Henry and Sam Harper and Mrs. Charles Price, of Georgetown, Hon. Ben Harper, of Argyle, Ga., Joe and Neil Harper, j of Bucksville, Van and Brewston Harper, of Hemingway, S. C. A FRIEND. The town authorities are now making every effort to suppress the ! speed mania that seems to have struck some of our automobile drivers. Gne of the drivers was up be- I fore the Mayor several days ago, or at least he was cited to attend trial. The building that is to be occupied by the Horry Drug Co. had a j large sign hanging over the front the first of this week to the effect that the company would be ready for bus- | iness about June 1. A. W. Batchman, of New Brookland, S. C., an experienced hotel man of the Piedmont section of the State, has rented the Myrtle Beach Hotel for the present season, and he has already been moved in for some time making preparations for a successful season at Conway's popular seaside resort. Our readers will find the advertising matter of the Cash Store, run by W. Boyd Jones, appearing quite often in these columns.

B BOY SUES COMPANY. < Alleging That He Received Personal < Injury While in Their Employ. Nelson Roberts, who is a boy under the age of 21 years, has brought suit against the Conway Lumber Company, through N \ncy A. Roberts, as his guardian ad litem, alleging in the complaint in sul stance that on June 12th, 1013, while working for the company as waL r boy, a tree was cut down and fell on aim and that his leg was broken and he was otherwise injured. The complaint sets forth that he was about fourteen years of age at the time. That he was engaged in carrying drinking water to a force of hands working on the rights of way and laying tracks in the timber woods of the defendant company. That the foreman of the work called him away from this duty of carrying water to the other hands and set him to cut the top out of a fallen tree, and remove it from the right of way. The complaint goes on to say that while he was engaged in trying to do this, which was beyond his capacity and strength, the other hands who were also working under the same foreman, cut down a tree and let the tree fall on him without warning. That the tree broke his leg, injured him in the hip and back, and the complaint demands damages in the sum of $12,000. The occurrence out of which the action has grown took place in the timber woods owned by the defendant company in what are known locally as Gunter's Islands in this county. SAN FOR I) SECTION.
