There are many who have never even considered this question. e It is the easiest thing in this world to form resolutions; it is hard to carry them out against the force of Jong habit. o Good character like everything else that is fine and good, is to be attained only by hard work _o He who is reduced to starvation and want knows how to appreciate prosperity. JilT' ? We are acquainted with some who ^think m6Ve pi fine clothes than theyl do of religion. ! i o J , / What the latest fashions gain 111! tone way, they always lose in another. There was nothing whatever saved by the low waists and the short skirts that were used in accordance with fashion's decrees during the last few years. There were other things invented to take up the cloth that was saved. o W'e never know how to appreciate good weather until we have a season of bad. o He who complains the most about the high cost of government is mighty apt to be the one who pa\s the least amount of the taxes every year to run it. Some people complain that they have never been hungry. They arc known as great eaters too. . I o Get ready in time to plant large crops of grain and other supplies for 1917. Corn will be in great demand and Horry farmers certainiy know how to raise it. ? o To hear some men talking you would think that they are always accomplishing great deeds; but when yoi^ investigate you find that they are^on^ntl^ putting these off to some more convenient season. ?*., An excuse is one of the most convenient things in the world.

Did you realize this? ??o Some men are able but afraid to dare where others go through and succeed. o One fact made plainer and plainer as time goes on in the political history of this State is that the office never seeks the man, but invariably the man seeks the office. o It is up to men to learn the shortest cut to the end in view. o There is more truth than poetry, let us say, in this fast living age, when you have to print and send the paper to a subscriber for years and years and get no pay for it, no, not even thanks for the trouble. o All 1L 1. l 1 i ah uie men wno as you nave nearn died from overwork, would have died sooner, you may be sure, if they had not have worked. The man who works hard in the opinion of the com munitv is hurting his health, while the man who does nothing and takes all things easy, is a sluggard and unfit to reside in the community. o A man must have his own ideas. If not so why all this talk about teaching boys and girls to depend, upon themselves. More and more people are paying atte ntion to the physical condition of children they send to school and expect to educate. How can they learn unless they feel well ? o Some men will tell you that they have never done anything simply because they never had any chance to spread. o To some all men are strange be/iniion /> - '?

When plowing in this case is necessary, the "preparation of the seed bed will often be facilitated by disking ahead of the plow and by following the plow at once with a pulverizer and harrow. THE BOttYEERJ . Hp..., An Effective Laxa For Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Highly Recommended as a Family Remedy. In children the slightest irregularity of the bowels has a tendency to disturb the entire digestive system, and unless promptly remedied invites serious illness. The experienced mother knows that by training her children to regularity in this respect, and when occasion arises administering a mild laxative, she will have little need for the doctor's services. Mrs. Leo. Weigand, 3251 Central Ave., N. S., Pittsburgh Pa,, whose two boys, Frank and Joseph, are shown in the illustration, writes that she has found Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin a most effective laxative, not only for the children but also for herself, and that she will always keep it in the house to use when needed. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that acts easily and naturally, without grijping or other pain or discomfort. It is pleasant to the taste so I < I -1 '! i i firry ? mere nas been no change in the administration policy, which contemplates maintenance of an efficient force at the border and does not purpose withdrawal of the Pershing expedition until it is apparent that the step will not endanger American territory.

IN SWEET REMEMBRANCE On Tuesday evening Nov. 21st, 191 (>, near the hour of 4:110 o'clock., the death angel visited the home oi j Air. i'ommie Turner and took from him his lovnig wife, Callie. She had been in feeble health for about four j years and about twleve days before the end came she got worse. Alt was done that loving hands could do. Dr. George M. Truiuck from Marion had been attending her for about four years and we are sure that he lid everything that he could to save her but nothing could not s?.ay the ic> hands of death. She bore her afffictions with patience. It was very | aard to stand by and see the sweet life drifting out on the chilly wat-1 ers of death. But we mourn not as chose who have 110 hope.
