PROBABLY THE ONI Y ONES AMONG THE F EVY IN AME REMARKABLE MANN ANY OTHER 1 AU the old stories about the Kan sas corn that grows so rapidly a farmer who attempts to cut down a stalk can scarcely get two whacks in the same Joint of roe stalk, the Ar kansas pumpkin vines that grow so fast they wear out the young fruit by dragging it along over the ground or the Mississippi cotton that spreads out ita branches in such a hurry the farmer who starts ploughing at one end of a row ls hopelessly enveloped in dense foliage before be reached the other end of the field; pale into insignificance in comparison with che two wonderful Japanese bamboo groves that are to be found I. An derson, one being in Silver m ooh cemetery and the other at the resi dence of Mr. Rufus Pant, who is re sponsible for their being here. It la sad that these are the only bam boo groves in tbe State of South Car olina, and among the very few to be found in the United States. It ls well worth any one's time to go to Silver Brook Cemetery and view the remarkable sight-remarkable not from the appearance of tne plants (or bushes, trees or whatever else might be the proper terra) but re markable in the manner of their growth. Process of Evolution. The principle of evolution, that is, that mankind through all the aeons has been growing from a very savage state into a fuller life and toward the goal of perfection, is exemplified, in a measure, in the growth of these bamboo forests. There is roe law of the survival of the littest is alt}) carried out in the bamboo forest. The frst principle alluded to is suggested by the fact that each year the indi vidual sprouts come up out of the ground larger thar, those who burst up the year before-each season growing into a larger life and near er the goal of perfection in the bani boo code of ethics. The second principle is borne out In the fact that the smaller bamboo trees are gradually crowded out by the larger onea and eventually go down in defeat ! and death In the race for existence in j the bamboo struggle for existence. There are a number of other laws and j notions ' exemplified in the bamboo I forest, but enough have been pointed out. The interested person should vis it the bamboo grove and do some re flecting for himself. But now for the facts of the matter. Beautiful Sight. Some fi vp br six years ago Mr. Rufus Pant received some roots ot Japanese bamboo that came from the empire of the Mikado. Some of these he'planted at his own home and the others he took over to Silver Brook Cemetery and planted alongside the cemetery stream, near the pavilion He planted, but two or three roots, and Friday aftern<y.\n when tho writer visited the spot veritable grove of bamboo was to be seen. A genuine forest may be there at this time, judg ing from the rapidity with which the I bamboo sprouts spout up and grow, i Seriously though, the bamboo, under normal condition?, will grow 30 feet in 30 days.

Dear Sir; The State tax commis sion of the State of South Carolina haa aent me the following communi cation relative to the enforcement of the income tax law: "The timo for making retorna un der the income tax law of this State expired on the 20th of February last, and a very large number of persona liable to the payment of the tax omitted .to make aucn returns within the time limited. "The neglect to make the returns in time may have been caused by an er roneous impression that the returns and payment of the income tax to the federal government relieved these tax payera from maying the Income tax imposed by the laws of this. State. "The failure to make retorna with in time have been so general and widespread that we think further opportunity ahould be' allowed such persona to matte these retorna before the penalties provided by law aro Imposed upon them."

Anderson Are auty and Wonder IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND '-RICA-CANES GROW IN ER-UNLIKE MOST PLANT KNOWN boo ls a wonderful thing. In Japan, it ls said, the plant ls the all-and-all Its tender shoots are eaten for food, like turnip greens or asapuragus. The mature bamboo is used for makin? furniture, building houses, construct lng rafts and boats, making aero plants, etc. The fibre of the cane is used, in weaving of mat?. I .arge Joints are sawed off and used as water buckets, while the Joints of a long section of cane are bored through with au augar and the things used as a water pipe. There are hundreds of other uses to which bamboo is put, but enough along this linc has been amid. Its Peculiar Growth. The bamboo cane grows most pecu liarly. Ordinary trees spring up from acorns as tiny shrubs and gradully develop into full grown giants of the forest. Contrary to this principle, a bamboo cane pushes through the ground at Its full size, that is, as re garda circumference. One sprout seen yesterday measured 14 inches In circumference. This sprout will not get any larger In circumference, but all of its growth will be in one di rection-upward. The bamboo canes print; np from roots that run along under tue ground for remarkable distances. For In stance, a root may be planted in a certain spot, and in a few years this root will have grown In all directions for hundreds of feet. At freqent in tervals along the root routes these moots spring up through the ground. And the minute a shoot pushes its wuy through the ground it starts to growing a tthc rate of a foot a day. that ls, under normal conditions. But a peculiar fact is that the pa rent root does not grow at the same season of the year that the shoot or cane grows. During the month of August 'he roots push themselves along un?.'" r the ground, causing the surface of the earth to become ridg ed, as though moles were burrowing along underneath the earth crust. The roots stop growing then, and In the. spring, particularly In April, the )hoots begin springing up. Another remarkable fact In connec tion with the growth of the canes is that a spout does all of its growing Ul one season. Unlike a tree that growB from year to year, the bamboo cane grows to full maturity In one season, and after that grows no more; but stands there for a few years and becomes tougher and hard er and finally dies. A Furry Coat. When the sprouts through tho earth they are encased in a furry coat of husks. Each Joint of the cane ts en cased in a husk. After the sprout has reached several feet in helgkt : husks begin tn fall off, exposing the beautifully colored cane. A bamboo cane after reaching a height of sevrral feet puts out small graceful branches, and from these de licate twigs which are tipped with small green leaves. The bamboo does not sired its foliage until a new crop of leaves come along and push the old ones off. Ror do the leaves fade. The old leaves that are pushed off to make way for the new ones are as green when they fall to the earth as they ever were. There are a great many interesting facts about the bamboo grove at Sil ver Brook cemetery or the one at Mr. Fant's residence which could be told. The grove ls most beautiful, both from the standpoint or appearance and the character of the s'nade it af fords. j HAIR COMINO OUT?

For half a century, Cardui has been re ? lieving just such ills, as is proven by the thousands of letters, similar to the above, which pour into our office, year by year.

Among the officers who resemble the Kaiser Wilhelm II, ls u young captain who has a prodigious talent for imitation. Some months before the war this captain found himself in a hall of the imperial palace at Potsdam. He was there with others of his friends who were officers, and began an imitation of the kaiser with extraordinary pre cision in tone, quality of voice, ges ture and appearance. All at once there was a terrible silence. Wilhelm II had arrived in the ball. The ofll cers saluted respectfully and re mained motionless. "Very well, gon on!" said the kais er, addressing the captain. "I did not know you had this talent." The officer hesitated a moment, then extending his arm and repro ducing the intimation of his sover eign, he cried in a strong voice: "Captain, you should be chased out af tho army, but In consideration of your youth and because I know you to be a worthy ond brave soldier, I pardon you." The kaiser laughed and the captalu was not punished. When Fifth Regla to Bite. When springtime comes a-creepln' round.
