THURSDAY, JAN. 13TH, 1916 The code these days seems to be concerned only with being caught with the goods. o Virtue is itself a sufficient reward. The needs of mankind has caused them to study and inventions are the result. o Much depends upon your so-called point of view. Change your so-called point of view and your opinion may flop around like the vane in the wind. o Some men will not kick another except when they find him down. This is pure meanness and cowardly besides. o Fords have done r. good deal and have often run into ditches; but they have still to empty European trenches. o As your mind thinks it so it will be unto you. This shows the importance of the right mental attitude. ?O?? Human experience teaches there is nothing in fads. Even the latest form of breakfast food will starve you to death if you follow eating it long enough. Those who have much arc worried to try to keep it for there arc hundreds trying to take it away from them. o Good old horse sense is here in the world yet and you find it just as much among the uncultured as among the most select circles. o It is how you regard your surround ings that determines your contentment. Therefore look to the mental state. The object of the Ford party was to bring peace to the warring nations of the old w?rld; but in accordance with human nature there was a fight on % ? - Doard the Oscar before she had been out a week. That is not a very good beginning in the interest of peace. ? Some of the problems now put in modern arithmetic are more like Chinese puzzles. They can do very little practical good to the student who manages to figure them out, except to get him to thinking perhaps. BETHEA RETURNS EARLY NEXT WEEK Will Arrive in Time For the Legislative Session. Andrew J. Bethea, lieutenant governor of South Carolina, who has been abroad with the Fard peace party, is on his way to America and will probably reach Columbia this week in time for the opening of the legislature. Mr. Bethea hoped to get his passport amended so as to permit him to return via Liverpool and enable him to see something of the belligerent countries and make a quicker trip home. Mr. Bethea writes from Christiana under date of December 20: "We reached here Sunday morning at 4 o'clock. The trip to this city was one of the most glorious sights I have ever seen. The peace expedition has been well received in Christiania and we find the people int ^resting and very much like Americans except they are not so much up u late. We have seen many wonderful things here and 1 shall have somej hing* to say upon my return." Transit of the Human Voice. The sound oi" the speaking voice must be transformed rapidly into heat .1 it is to be heard distinctly. When the sound persists the echoes overlay and the acoustics of a room is faulty. By measuring the tones of the voice in i lecture room of Harvard university, which were at first audible for live and a half seconds after utterance, Dean Sabine of the graduate school of applied science changed the materials in the room with reference to the factors of reverberation, interference, and res< nance or "echo" with pronounced success. An important article by him in the Journal of the Franklin Institute concludes as follows: "While these several factors, reverberation, interference and echo, in an auditorium at all complicated are themselves complicated, nevertheless they are capable of an exact solution, or, at least, of a solution as accurate as are the architect's plans in advance of construction And it is entirely possible to calculate in advance of con struction whether or not an auditorium will be good, and, if not, to determine the ractors contributing to its poor acoustics and a method for their correction." Rough on Tommy. The mails from home had just been received by a certain regiment. Not only were there letters, but many parcels from relatives and friends at home for lucky soldiers. One of the Tommies received a large box addressed to himself, and with a triumphant yell he rushed off to his company's lines and gathered them around him to share In the eagerly anticipated contents of his box. "Smokes, lads!" he cried as he undid the wrapping. "From the old man; I know it. An' there's sure to be a bottle or two of Scotch." He opened the box, gave one look at the contents and collapsed in a heap. "What is it?" cried his comrades, pressing around. "It's from old Auntie Mary," groaned the disappointed warrior. "Bandages an' ointment an' embrocation an' splints, an' a book on *Ow to Be Your Own Surgin'!"?London TitBits. Private Cars. In the town of Mombasa on the Fast coast of Africa the private car question has been settled to the satisfaction of every white resident, by providing a private street car for each of then). The cars are pushed by a native black and are small They are fitted with a wide seat which will hold two persons. The tracks of this private road lead through the main streets of the town, with switches to the stores and clubs. Each owner of a car has a switch to his yard and boards his car in the same manner as an automobilist. The road is financed by each car owner, who pays a certain sum each year for upkeep. The road is used for no other purpose than to carry the owners on their outing or calling expeditions.?Wail Street Journal. Finding Key in Dark. The latch key oa a ring ordinarily is the most difficult to find, particularly in the dark, but if it is attached to the ring it will come out right side up and ready for use. A chain saves the annoying experience of reaching home only to discover the keys have been left at the office, but for those who do not like to carry a chain, an extra ring may be attached to the Important key In place of the chain. It is then easy enough to And the ring among the keys, even In the dark, and op getting hold of it, a slight shake brings the desired key into position for use. \ II1C HUKHX OZtKi MAY BE QUART A MONTH Liquor Supply for South Carolina May Be Reduced. t Spartanburg, Jan. 8.?It may be a quart a month instead of a gallon a month in South Carolina when the next Legislature gets through with the liquor laws of the State. Senator H. B. Carlisle, author of the gallon-amonth law passed by the last session of the legislature, has said that he will support a bill either cutting the amount of liquor to be shipped into South Carolina to a quart a month or 1 prohibiting it all together. He suggests that a law permitting citizens to get liquor on a physician's pre scription might be advocated. The attitude of the Spartanburg delegation toward the fight being made by the banks of the State on the tax commission is not defined and all members that have been asked for an expression have said that they were not sufficiently familiar with the controversy to express an opinion. The directors of the Spartanburg Chamber of p Commerce have passed a resolution asking for the repeal of the tax commission act. , G 1 JUDGE FOR YOURSELF ? Which is Better?Try an Experiment > or Profit by Conway Citizen's Experience. Something new is an experiment. Must be proved to be as represent~ . J uu. The statement of a manufacture is not convincing proof of merit. But the endorsement of friends is. i Now supposing you had a bad back, A lame weak, or aching one, Would you experiment on it ? You will read of many so-called | cures. I Endorsed by strangers from far-1 , away places. It's different when the endorsement comes from home. Easy to prove local testimony. Read this Conway case: John Daniels, grocer, Main St., Con way, says: "1 had pains in my back , and at times, it was sore and lame. I also had other symptoms of kidney trouble. 1 got Doan's Kidney Pills at the Conway Drug Co; and they relieved the pains in my back and the other symptoms of kidney trouble left."
