A paper published near the HOuthern bouinlry of Missouri speaks of the grert advantages to farmers of the telephone where it has been introduced. Tho improvement, it is remarked, "places city and country in immediate communication, rendering unneces* sary four-fifths of the trips that have hitherto been made on country roads." Highways may be muddy and weather stormy, but the world cau be ruug up accord* mg to the necessities of the moment, facilitating business and social |life, and saving an immense amount of time and effort. A marked tendency of the age is to bring the country into closer touch with tho centres of population. Electric roads are multiplying and make their way into neighborhoods that could not hope for steam lineB. Rural free delivery ol the mails is moving onward with great strides. Over 20,000 routeB are in operation. South Carolina nlone lias 333. Farmers get their letters and the daily news delivered almost at their doors. Each day's event roach the country promptly and tho old rural isolation is disappearing. Means of ready travel grow better and keep on extending, and the good roads organizations gain constantly in aetive support. Within a dozen years '^leotric transit in tho cities has more than J ..I.? i .... nouoiea me area suitable for town residences. Cities themselves are spreading farther into the country, af which suburban sections are a pleasing modilicatlon. Labor on tho farm has been rendered easier by ingenious inaohinory, All whose memories stretch back to pioneer clays can bear witness to the enor^ | moue advance toward bringing country and city togothcr. Progress in that respect proceeds at an accelerated pace. Going to the city or taking a run into tho country is a commonplaco incident. How far the space between will eventually be annihilated is beyond the range of conjecture, but the old lines of separation are disappearing in so many ways that tho future relations of country and sity aro full of hopeful interest. Thore is a rellex side to the drift )i population to the cities. Love of country life is a natural and general feeling. The merchant who cornea to the city as a youth to make his fortune often returns to the country when he rotires, and dreams of doing it all through his busy career. Ho would hardly he willing to admit the deep tenderiiCHS of the old farm. All the remotenese of that quiet nook has passed away. You can "ring up" the farmer of today and lind that he is abreast with the curront newB and that he has it printed in currodt detail, thanks to tho rural delivery carrier. Americans ??re tho best farmers in tho world, have tho host appliances for their business and pursue it with tho highest degree of intelligence and enterprise. Tho cities are reaching for them and thoy are reaching lor the cities, and tho prospect is full of agrt cable possibilities.? Greoiiville Herald.

His Sight Restored by Lucky Accident. Abboville, July 20.?Mr. Norman S. Cason, an industrious and prosperous farmer of this county who has been almost totally blind Hince childhood, inet with a peculiar and happy accident while in town yesterday. A State correspondent says Mr. Cason was sittiiiR in the store of Messrs. P. Rosenbery <fc Co., and in attempting to put on his hat the brim struck him in the eye. For a moment he was ronderod totally blind, hut soon aiterwarUs His sight came to him and ho was able to distinguish friends and objects never before seen by him*. Ho said he could see the obstruction to his vision gradually passing away after the total blindness came on. The good fortune of Mr. Oason has resulted in his confusion to a small degree. He did not know the appearance of his brothers and friends and did not recogni/.fl them after he had ragainod his sight until they had spoken to him. Mr. Cason's sight improved rapidly during tho afternoon and until he loft town for his home. Heretofore he had vu?[iiiti>ou oniliiniH H|?fUlUllBlH ilDOUl his condition, but none gave him any relief or hope. His friendn are now congratulating hint on his good fortune. Notice.

Six wotr en get into a street oar or omnibus, and though we never before Baw them it is easy to pick out tho true lady. Sho does I not giggle constantly at evory little thing that transpires. She wears no flowered brocade to be trodden under foot, nor rose-tinted gloves, but the lace frill round her faoe is scrup ..1 1? M 1. *? ' uiuuoiy iruuti una lue dowb under herohin have evidently bcon handled only by dainty fingers. She makes no parade of her watch if she wears one; still we notice sueh a trim little shoe, not paper soled, but of an anti consumption thickness; the bonnet or hat she has upon her head is simply trimmed; she is quite as civil to the poorest as to the richest who sits beside her. If she attracts attention it is by tho uncouHcious grace of her person and I manner and not by tho obstentation of her dress. We are quite surry when she pulls the strap and disappears. If we were a bucholor we should go home to our solitary den with a resolution to become a better married man. The strongest man feels the influence of a woman's gentlest thoughts as the mightiest oak quivers in tho softest broeze. Never did language better apply to an adjective than when calling the wif? Mm "better half." We admire the ladies 1 because of their beauty, respect them because of their virtuoa, adoro them because of their intelligence and love thero because we can't help it. ] STA'VK OF SOUTH CAROLINA, } 1 County of Pickens.

We soo Lhat child, smiling bravoly through its tears, grow gradually to maturity until today it stands alone in the lustre and glory which is born of hardships overcome. Tho advance of tho Now South was marked by trails of blood, wrung from tho hearts of bravo men who tovod tho mothor land with undy mfc uuvuuon. ine young einld Jaw before it long years of unequal 2ontest with moro fortunate sections of the country, but it inhoritid the Sftme strength of character is marked tho life of tho Old South, Tho New South in its 9firly yoars saw nothing but tho imoking ruins of its churches and H-hools?a eight which might well 311 tho beholder with hopelessness >uu uHBjuiir. it iacoci problems novor euoountcred by any othrr people. Povorty and doleat, projulice aud misrepresentation stared into tho face of the child as it looked out up6n the scones of devastation and bloodshed. It was :onfronted with the question whether the Anglo-Saxon or the African should rnle tho Southern country. All these and many other problems )f groat moment did tho Now South overcome, and at tho prosmt time her excellent chinches, ichools and colleges bear silent but doquont testimony to her triumph. Ker educational facilities today ire only *,equaled l>v her irreat wealth of agricultural, minora) and ndustnal resources. The Now South! Who can toll what the /ears of tho future contain for her? 2an it not be said that sho will itnioubtedly inliorit that measuro of prosperity and happiness which falls to those who, Boeing their luty clear before them, meet it iDlliuclungly and conquer. -Ashe/ille Citizen. Growth of Rural Service. The growth of the rural froo de? ivory service in tho United^Statea has een rapid and the total amaunt now paid annually is enormous. Previous to 1902 those carriers were paid by warrant or check direct from the first assistant postmaster general's oilico at Washington, but the growth became ho L'xtensivo it was decided that tho postmaster at the capital of oaeh State should pay tlio carriers in his State. in ivjuj wnen rostmaster JOnsor was mado paymaster for South Carolinn, there wore 111 rural free ilohvery carriors in South Carolina, ami the amount of thoir salaries was <(00,400. At the close of the fiscal year, Juno .'JO, 1903, there wore 333 carriers, teceiving the Hum of $102,012, over throe times tho amount paid out at the close of tho fiscal year of 1902. In 1902 the carriers received on an average of #500 per annum ; in 1?>03 about *000 por annum and for the present yoar there Iihh been practically a *100 rnino, according to the length of tho route, most of tho carriors getting if720 per annum.
