I?-I Perhaps the war will take in the entire world before it is done with. But the best way to do is to just let her come, and don't .worry. * * * Some people have not yet learned the necessity of curtailing. The war situation will learn a few before we are over with it. * * * Passing a law for state bonds to buy up the cotton crop is lik^ the boy who ate the extra piece of apple that he did not want just to keep it from spoiling. * * * * It is better to live a life of strict obedience to the laws than to live a life of crime, and while everybody knows this, still the jails and the penitentiaries are full. * * * * To listen at some men talk you would think they are always looking: for trouble, yet they are ready to run when trouble really apears. * * + * Just the right amount of a good ( thing is very satisfactory, an overplus makes a nuisance of the best thing in the world. * * * A wise man once said that two class es of men purchased automobiles. The I one kind was a rich man, the other was a fool. * * * * ( Some fool said that it was cheaper to keep an automobile than a horse for a horse would eat his head off while the machine would not cat at all + * * * Why lose a hundred dollars worth of time in trying to collect a one dol- 1 lar debt? Better let the debtor have it. 1 i : i * * * * Even foolish levity has its purpose in the life of every day. It can at least relieve the mind from a too constant study of the problems of life. * * * * There may be no market for cotton j next year no more than there is this | year. But raise plenty of things to | eat and whv should we worry? : ' < " . - i * * * * The countries of Europe were entire ly too ready to rush into war. This ; - ' . . , i ' i proves that the reasons they give for it are not the real ones, and the war had been planned for years past. j .**?*. There is a use for almost everyJ . thing in the world no matter how insignificant it may look. The farmer knows how to save the egg shells and feed them back to the hens to help make the egg shells again. * * * ? While experts on the cotton situation are trying to convince the ladies that they ought to wear cotton goods it would be just as well to impress it on them that they can also wear more poods in the same garment. * * * * Perhaps at last we will forget the words we have always seen on almost everything, toy or smalll article we purchased: "Made in Germany." If the war continues there will be many coffins bearing that inscription before it is over. * * + Most men have discovered sooner or later that they cannot remain at ease through this world and accomplish anything. If you do anything that amounts to much, there will be something on your docket all of the | time. It is a pleasure to rest when you are tired and ought to be a pleasure to work when you are rested, but it is not so with many people you know. The man who accomplishes much in the world as compared to tV?#? tim? v?r. has for it just goes to work and works until he is tired. Then he will rest, and as soon as he has rested he goes to work again. Tn this way there is no telling how long he can hold out. But there arc plenty of people you know who have never been able to tell when they arc tired from work, and if they are resting, they never know when they are rested. When they quit work they never know when to take hold again, and they are just as likely to remain idle as they are to go to work. m m * How To Qlvo Quint** To Chlldro*.

The well know fact that, when using the eyes for any near work the illumination should come from the left side rather than the right is often disregarded. Let any one who considers the matter of little importance once demonstrate to himself th^ difference and he will never forget it. Take a pencil and paper and try to write while in such a position that the light will fall from the right side. The shadow of the hand or pencil or both is thrown on the paper in such a way as partly to cover the characters one is making. This necessitates a closer viewpoint and a conscious strain 011 the eyes. Now let the position of the writer be reversed so that the light falls on the work from the left side. He will notice that the shadows fall away from the work he is doing and 1 _ 1 * - ? leaves me neiu unoDscured. In making the change he cannot help but notice the feeling of ease that immediately is experienced by the eyes. This fact should be remembered in planning schoolrooms, workrooms, oflices any any places where steady close work is to be performed. * a * * THE QUACKS HOROSCOPE "If there were anything in astrology," says the Journal of the American Medical Association, "vfle should have something like this: " 'October, 1914: This is a month in which Saturn rules strongly in favor of the public health and while configuration prevails, it argues ill for quacks and charlatans. The horot scope of the medical faker presages danger, and those that are prudent will seek the cyclone cellar.' "On October 7 'Professor' Samuels, the Wichita faker, was found guilty i in the federal courts on eleven counts; the maximum penalty for each count is a fine of a thousand dollars and five years in prison. Samuels amassed wealth by swindling the sick and suffering by selling a mixture of sugar, salt and water as a cure for practically all diseases. On Oct. 22, 1914, Orlando Edgar Miller, lato of the Chicago and Denver* was sentenced to a prison in London after being convicted of having caused the death of a woman by administering a drug while she was a patient in an alleged sanitarium he conducted. Miller will be remembered as the quack who exploited the so-called 'International Institute for the Treatment of Tuberculos- J sis in Chicago. The Journal investigated Miller and his 'institute'; showi-l ! cw lijj me quaes s record; proved that over 80 per cent of his victims died under treatment and in general turned the search-light on the scheme. On Oct. 21, 1914, Dr. Richard C. Fowler was arrested in Canada on a charge of grand larceny. Fowler had been a fugitive from justice for some years and is said to have swindled the public out of more than a million dollars, j He founded the 'R. C. Fowler Medi-1 cine Company/ a mail order medical j fraud whose president was O. B. Fow- j ler, president and one of the founders of the 'National League for Medical Freedom.' Altogether, the present month has proved a bad one for medical fakers." Ill I AI1IAI ' * - ? W. (I. ulNliLtlUN HAS LONGECTPOTATOES SAMPLES OF THESE STRANGE EDIBLES BROUGHT TO CONWAY SATURDAY. What would you think of a sweet potato that measured more than five feet in length? W. J. Singleton has raised a plenty of such this year and brought several samples of them to me Herald last Saturday, or rather sent them here by his son who was in Conway for a few hourR on Saturday evening. These should by all means have been exhibited at the fair, but perhaps Mr. Singleon did not know at that time that his potato patch contained such curiosities as these. The samples sent to the Herald office were objects of curiosity to all those who saw them. Of course the diameter of these long potatoes was not in proportion to the length of them, for if this had been so there would have been more than a peck or perhaps a half bushel of potatoes in each individual one. The potatoes belong to a new variety, the seed of which Mr. Singleton sent off for and obtained. 4 " / V I .

TERRELL COMES TO GRIEF WITH AIR MACHINE AT COUNTY FAIR. Choosing to wreck his machine ami risk his life rather than endanger the lives of several hundred Chesterfield people, Frank J. Terrel, the aviator, met death last Thursday . afternoon when his machine was telescoped and crashed to earth, burying the driver beneath the machinery. Mr. Terrel had been makinw fliVtifc at the county fair here this week and was scheduled to make his last appearance at 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon. He rose without mishap from the track, which was massed with people on either side. He rapidly rose to a height of about 500 feet and flew, to the edge of the town, circled and headed back toward the fair grounds. As he appeared in sight it was seen that he was having trouble with his engine. The police had been unable to hold back the crowd and the track, on which he was to land, was thronged with people. The descent of the machine into the crowd would have inAnni tU- _J* iiicMiib liic ut'iiui ui many persons. TWrel quickly made the decision which cost him his life and made him a hero. His engine having stopped he gave the machine a quick twist to the right and with the aeroplane was hurled to the ground a few feet from the fence, against which the big crowd was massed. , leaseTsmgT ik capital city I , WAREHOUSE COMMISSIONER | RENTS ACCOMMODATIONS . .John L. McLaurin, State warehouse commissioner, has leased room in the old State dispensary building and is prepared to store several thousand | bales of cotton in Columbia. The | rent will be 25 cents a month for each halq. The weighing and grading charge for each bale will be 5 cents. Freight will have to be prepaid, as he has no funds out of which to advance freight charges. The cotton should be consigned to the Columbia Warehouse Transfer Co. The rental charge covers insurance and all expenses. Commissioner McLaurin made publie the following letter which he had received from Christopher. Atkinson, secretary of the Columbia Supply Co: "We read in yesterday morning's paper what you had to, say with reference to investigating the cost of galvanized corrugated roofing, and we feel satisfied that you would prefer all those who contemplate building warehouses purchasing roofing from or through South Carolina merchants, since they can purchase to equal advantages and in 90 per cent of the cases to better advantage. We would be only too glad to be put before the public as the Globe Iron Roofing and Corrugating Co., of Cincinnati have, but of course this would not be fair to the other South Carolina merchants | If you have no objections we would ap preciate it if you would state through the columns of the papers to those who are thinking of building warehouses, that they can purchase roofing from any of the following concerns to equal advantage: Lorick Pros., Columbia; Lorick & Lowrance, Columbia: Ruff Hanlwaro Cn Oninw bia; Columbia Supply Co.,; BaileyLebby Co., Charleston; Cameron & Barkley Co., Charleston; Corolina Portland Cement Co,, Charleston; Kaminski Hardware Co., Georgetown; Sumter Railway an<J Mill Supply Co., Sumter. In addition to the above, any one could procure roofing from the hardware stores in Chester, Rock Hill, Spartanburg, Greenville, Anderson, Greenwood, Newberry, Orange- j burg, Benettsville and the other towns of the State. "Whereas, we feel certain that any of the above named concerns would furnish roofing at the same price as the Globe Iron Roofing and Corrugating Co.,?$2.64 per square, delivered to any point in South Carolina where the rate does not exceed 34 cents per 100 pounds a minimum car?40,000 pounds?we can only speak positively for two concerns?the Columbia Supply Co., Columbia,; and the Sumter namvay and Mill supply uo., Sumter.
