The only thing to do after failure is to try again. * * * Time will come when all of the world will be one united nation. * * * There are many failures in the thought factory. * * * Some boys dress up so fine that they really look girlish. * * * * Several men have gone crazy over the buy-a-bale plan. ? * Anger is one of the most common ways of wasting energy. * * * The man who will save five cents only to lose a dollar by it later is to be pitied. * Experience is a dear school and men learn in that school who never learned in any other. * * * ? The wealthiest men this country has produced were poor men at one time in their lives. * * m * Every part of this world is now to some extent dependent on the others. It is proved by the war in Europe. * * ? The smaller the town the stronger the competition is between those who follow the same business. * * * * No man should want justice worse than the one who has violated the law. But that is not what he wants. # * * * Clothes never made the man except in the case of the millinoraiu,-ETA in the case of the millionaire tailor. * * ? * One thing that a man in public office had just as well expect to receive is criticism. * * ? Prepare to take care of the hard limes next year, while it is yet time. Make no debts for one thing. ? ? * The everlasting habit of putting off is what ruins so many men who would otherwise make successes. * * * * It is extremely hard to hide wrongdoing in a small community. This is the reason why the biggest rascals unhung are found in the large cities. * * * Half the people in this town would not have their secret thoughts told from the housetops for all of the gold that Vanderbilt ever had. * * Some men do not believe there is any use in action of any kind. They were born lazy and follow their inclij?r nations all their lives to do nothing. fc Senator E. D. Smith advises against the idea that cotton is valueless and ?*> tfeould be discarded entirely. Perhaps he is right. * + * The most noticeable feature of the | fashions for women of the present day is the lack of fashion as we view * ? * You have seen men who were rather slow in their work but who were persistent and never stopped until they gained desired results. * * * # Practical experience is worth all of 111 the theory in the world when you! j come to the every day affairs of this | ! life. * * * * No matter how poor the fare you have in this world you may be sure that there are others who have put up , with worse. * * * * The'person of changeable mood is; better than one of solid demeanor! who never changes from the cradle to! mo grave. * * * * Give n? please a little something; else besides the war to write about. Our paragraphs about this stale subject arc now about utterly exhausted. * * * * The more you do in this world the more you will be talked about, and sonic of the talk will be such as you do not care to hear. * * * Germany, the highly civilized, the cultured, the wealthy, has been thrown back more than a hundred years by the war which she helped to bring upon herself. * * * * Any farmer who fails to try to make ( all that he needs for home sunnliesl while making as large a money crop as he can, acts the fool, as we have i often said before. * * * Gifts in reason at Christmas time j is a sign of good feeling and friend-1 ship among the people; but with some | it has become a craze that does no | body any special good. * * * You cannot tell what the other man ' thinks by merely listening at what he j has to say, for one half of the world is, composed of liars to more or less de- j grce. * Hard times for money will push things backward to some extent. But j we predict that things will only get ready to take a start forward before , very long and will make such progress 1 as they never made before. * * * # A place like a city or town needs more laws than a place where people j do not congregate. This is the rea-: son for incorporated towns and the authority given them by the legisla-1 l ture to make laws and ordinances of! i their own. ' * * The national department of agriculture can do some good as a reason for its existence. It can inform the people of foot and mouth disease of catt tie and also the fact that the same disease can he caught by the two-legged kind. * You need not think that because money is hard to get at this time and I the price of land may be low, that real i estate has gone down to stay. It will I rise again and will go higher than it has ever gone before, you may be sure of that. * Some years ago land was consider! ed valuable for the timber that it I might have growing upon it. Now j some men had rather have the land with the timber removed so that it may be more easily cleared for cultivation. # This country is far behind the times , by reason of the vast forests it form erly had from which the people tried to make a living instead of clearing up the land and planting it in useful i crops. If it had not been for this timi ber, this part of the country would i have been far ahead of what it is as an agricultural region. I * Some men have said that South | Carolina should have a divorce law as a number of other states have had for years and years. It is a mistaken idea i that divorce laws would help to bring r happiness to men and women who desired to break the marriage ties. Studies of this subject in states where divorce is allowed will prove what we . I ' say in regard to this. * * * i| The schemes of every kind that i 1 have been either suggested or actually applied to remedy the cotton situation arc only plans to stay the hard times that such conditions, have brought. We certainly know that it is better to have it out now. Let the hard times come now and the better times later. What use to stay it off by bond issues and the like? The rub will come sooner no matter what we do. * * * * If you happen to think that the times are so very hard on account of the war, we think you are mistaken. True the cotton has not been sold, but last year this time and even the year before, you will recall that it was not half niflfftfl nut nf ^r*VI\V\t VW V \J L HIC HCIUb Ct t tlllS time. * * # FINALLY GOT HIS DOSE For years and years a man in the up-country of a State not far from this lived a life of open shame. Notwithstanding his daily violation of horality his business prospered. He continually imposed upon others as well as himself, and he acted as if he fullv believed that this could go on forever. His wtalth brought him the influence which all those years kept him on the outside of the penitentiary. Men were a triad to oppose him. They let him do as he pleased. At last he interferred with a little, unimportant looking, pale-faced mountaineer, and i 'ir> lilwi 4-1-.

But will it? two pmTIled supposed burglars FN COSTLY COUNTRY RESIDENCE NEAR MIAMI, FLA. MAN AND HIS DAUGHTER The Man Was Wealthy and Daughter Only Eighteen Years Old.?Brained Victims With an Axe.?Fired House to Cenceal Crime. Near Miami, Floridla, one day the latter part of last week two persons were killed with an axe in a costly country residence and the house then destroyed by tire with the evident intention of concealing the crime. rpL 1 - _ 1 * ' ~ i iiu ciead are: Aciam A. Hoggs, a widely known Florida lawyer, and Ids daughter, Marjorie. The attorney was 45 years old and the young woman 18. Neighbors found the charred bodies in a search of the ruins of the residence. The skulls of both had been crushed. While a motive for the double murder has not yet been established to the full satisfaction of the authorities, they are working on the theory that the crime was committed by burglars who were discovered in the house by the lawyer and his daughter. The blood stained axe used in the crime was found that day hidden under shrubbery near the site of the burned residence. An empty purse was also found. An investigation of the ruins revealed several small artncles of jewelry, but nothing of value has been located, thus tending to support the robbery theory. Mr. Boggs was alone in the residence during the early part of the light. His daughter was attending a social function nearby and Mrs. Boggs is visiting at Lake Placid, New York. Miss Boggs returned home shortly after midnight. The Boggs family has been prominently connected with the educational and religious development of t!.e' South. Dr. V7il'iam E. Boggs, ' mer chancellor of the University of Georgia, and a Presbyterian minister who now lives in Atlanta, is the father of lie dead lawyer ( llbert K Boggs, a brother is a number of the faculty of the Georgia School of Technology in Atlanta. Dr. Thomas Boggs, of Baltimore, and Lucian Boggs of Jacksonville, Fla., are two brothers. The dead lawyer was a graduate of the University of Georgia. TRESPASS NOTICE.

A man will pay a dollar for a fifty cent article that he wants. A woman will pay 49 cents for a 39 cent article that she doesn't want. A girl is real proud when she graduates from college with a B. A. But she is even prouder when she enters the school of matrimony and adds B Y to her degree. A girl can wear a long skirt and make it display more hosiery than if she wore a shorter skirt. Its all in the management. A Mother never changes. When her son is 40 years old and wears long whiskers she won't call him anything else but "Willie." The Scientists must be losing their grip on the Peepul. In December of last year the Harvard savants announced the Great Discovery that nearly all women are knock-kneed. But you may have noticed that the fool men keep right on getting married and taking a chance. A Massacheusetts girl cut off her hair in her sleep. Most girls yank it off before they go to sleep. The Highbrows claim the use of a j medicated tissue screen will make , kisssing "safe and sanitary:" It may make it sanitary, but there isn't any | way to make kissing safe. It must be a terrible jar to the Ro' formers to realize that the fellows who smoke cigarettes manage to cop out so many, good jobs. AWARMJO MANY ! SOME INTERESTING FACTS , AW KISKE't' TROUBLES. l4'cw people realise to what extent their health depends upon the condition of the kidneys. The physician in nearly all cases of serious illness, makes a chemical analysis of the patient's urine. He knows that unless the kidneys are doing* their work properly, the other organs cannot readily be brought back to health and strength. When the kidneys are neglected or abused in any way, serious results are sure to follow. According to health statistics, Bright's disease, which is really an advanced form of kidney trouble, caused nearly ten thousand deaths in ll)1o, in the- State of New York alone, .'herefore, it behooves us to pay more r.i ention to the health of these most important organs. An ideal herbal compound that has had remarkable succors as a kidney remedy is Dr. Kilmei s Swamp-Root, the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy. The mild and healing* influence of this preparation, in most cn::.?s, is soon realized according to sworn state meats and vended testimony of th os si who have used the remedy. Il you feel that your kidneys require attention, and wish a sample bottle, write to Dr. Kilmer & Co., ttinghumpton, N. Y., enclosing* ten cents and they will gladly forward it to you by Parcel Post. $1.00.?adv. /r Swamp-Root is sold by every druggest in bottles of two sizes?50c. and NOTICE OF SALE.
