How wonderful is imagination. o Fear has much to do in causing a bad digestion as any dyspctic will find j out if he takes the proper means of finding out. o Why loose valuable time in criticising the work of others, rather than spending this time in accomplishing work of your own. o Half a loaf is better than none at all, but what good is this consolation to the man who is not satisfied if he has a whole loaf. o Get back to the vegetable diet.

When it gets you don't be too quick to run for a doctor. o Some men are highly educated who never saw within the doors of a school room. Schools only make it a little easier to get the knowledge. There are other ways it can be done. 6 hm _ mure is somcuung oi course in the ability of men; but as a general rule the kind of tools p. man uses has a good deal to do with the quality of his work and the product thereof. o Do the business men of Conway like the clouds of dust that constantly float into their places of business from the streets of Conway ? A good street sprinkler would cut this all out. o Have you ever studied the man oi woman who is forever ailing? Tc hear them tell it, we mean. Well they look to be as healthy as anybody else, but one thing is sure. They arc one of the greatest sources of profit for the patent medicine men. o It is sometimes too late to mend. We are rot worrying- one littie bi. about what will happen in Europ when the great war is over, or jus what kind of a struggle the pcopl over there will have or their hand, to get back to normal. This country is what concerns us. Encouraged by the numerous arti cles in the newspapers and the genci al literature sent broadcast oyer the South during the last Fall and Winter the farmers have begun to plan more wheat.

A dc sire to amuse the spectators it seem^ to us must he the great incentive. o Notwithstanding- that the weapon.1 of modern warfare are capable ol mowing men down by the thousands as compared with the earlier classes of death-dealing instruments; still we find men of today spending theii whole time and burning the candle aJ both ends and in the middle, trying to devise engines and instruments that are more deadly than was ever dreamed of. o Some men are lying awake at nights over worry brought on by the European war and trying to decide when they think it will end . What worries us more than that is the fact that this country found herself unprepared to stand alone as well as we thought she could in a matter of this kind. It is a good thing that the Eu-1 ropean war came along when it did to wake this country up and warn her of what she ought to do in order to meet such contingencies. c The Columbia Record knows a good thing when she sees it. It has a "most beautiful lady in South Carolina" contest on foot with an attractive prize Who is it does not know that every young man in the State has his own most beautiful girl in the entire State, and of course you could not convince him to the contrary in a hundred years. This is what will make this one of the liveliest contests in the history of the Record if it can but get all the young men started. o GET READY FOR SUMMER FLIES In the Better Babies department of the May Woman's Home Companion appears some practical advice to moth ers on various house cleaning matters. On the subject of fighting flies successfully appears the following: "Flies breed and thrive in filth and carry it into your home. "Be ready for them with screens and swatters. "Repair broken screens. A hole in the screen may eventually mean a hole in your family circle. THE HQRRY HERAL "Flies multiply in garbage. Have your garbage can emptied regularly and keep it covered. "After emptying the tin, flush it with carbolic acid solution, three tablespoonfuls of 95 per cent carbolic acid to each quart of hot water. This solution destroys fly life in egg or maggot form." o FURTHER LIGHT ON RADIUM. The outbursts of sensational discus sion of radium as a cure for cancer having subsided, this method of treatment is finding its true place and value as an aid to surgery. Through constant study at the hands of many experts, a new and better understanding of its action is being attained. The latesst statement from authoritative source is found in the annual report of the Harvard Cancer Commission. At the Collis P. Huntington Hospita in Boston 200 milligrams of radium, are in use under all the advantages of new and ingenious methods of application devised by the hospital staff. As a result of another whole year o' observation, the Harvard Commission repeats its conclusion first published in 1914, that the curative value of radium is limited to certain types of skin cancer and other localized formr of the disease. Its value as a palliative in relieving pain and discharge in inoperable cases has been fullv eon firmed. It lias also been found effective in leukemia, a disease marked by an enormous increase in the white blood cells with enlargement of the spleen. Large cancerous growths were sometimes found to disappear under the influence of radium, but the spreading of the cancer to other parts of the body was not prevented in these cases, and indeed it appeared that patients might even succumb to the poisons released into the system as a direct result of the breaking up of the tumor under radium treatment. Most significant of all is the statement that radium treatment has been refused at the Huntington Hospital in cases where a surgical cure seemed reasonably probable. Insists on Answer. Editor Horry Herald: I am asking for a little more space in your paper. I want to ask our County Treasurer to please answer the questions that I asked him through The Herald the 8th of April. I asked him where our unexpended money from 1913 to 1914 was. When the Trustees sent him an order for a part of it in December of 1914, he, the Treasurer, refuses or neglects to answer. Now we know our money was in h hands, and we know when we asked for it, he said that there was not a dollar of it there. And we know that he refuses to give us any explanation about it. Now our Treasurer may think that we are too small to be worthy of his notice, but the money is ours and he is only the custodian. Now, do we back woods, nigger sweating tads have a right to ask questions? If so where is our money. Please answer! , O. M.

"But I always tell mother," I overheard a little boy say when one of his school friends wanted him to do something he shouldn't and not tell his mother. There was no priggishness about the little fellow. He simply stated a fact of his daily existence that didn't seem at all out of place or silly. His mother believed in him Mild Vin Knlimirxl ?

It struck me at the time that I should much like to meet that mother of his, for she must have been an exceptional woman to have inspired such confidence of herself in a little boy that was p>*oof against all the jeers and cynicism of schoolboy life.
