One of our advertisers told us
last week that he got more
good from his advertisement in
ThesPickens Sentinel than from
any othez - advertising he did;
and he advertises in several
papers, including two Green
ville papers.
Citizens of Toledo., Ohio, are
delighted with their street car
service. A 3-cent ordinance
-was passed by the city council,
but the company refused to re
ceive less than a "jit," so the
-passengers have been riding
free for several days.
One reason- why The Sentinel
dods not declare a large divi
dend. for its stockholders every
iear is because we give our sub
scribers .a paper which costs
more than one dollar a year to
produce; another feason is that
we divide up with our printers
by paying them at least living
wages.

SGe Us Foteetion
Again the fair -name of ou
county has been blackened by a
sad ihomicide near No-ris. .ThiL
makes the second killing m the
same community within thE
last few months. Who knows
but what both the boor -boyc
might be living today, if wE
had the rural policemen, whici
many of our best citizens havE
been callind for; and to strength
en the call the grand jury at thE
last term of court. recommend
ed the appointment of tw<
policemen for the county.
What if it should cost thb
county a little money? Whal
is money by-the'side of peac'e
happiness, protection and ever
life itself? Let the proper offi
cers select good men and send
them out to suppress crime, and
giveour citizens protection.
Fads-Not Boasts
Our good friend. Mr. Martin
editoi of the Easley Progress
made a statement in his papel
about The Pickens Sentinel a
week or two ago which wa
without foundation, when hE
said "the Pickens paper went -t<
the wall, for some cause. Sept
ember last."
The Sentinel is in better finan
cal co 'dition today than it ha
-been since it/was born morE
than forty-two years ago. and
has some4f the strongest an<
most successful moneyed mer
in the.ountv behind it. It hac
a larger circulation than it ha,
ev1er had,before and the pros
for the future are bright
We are giving the people a
good, clean, home paper and w
have good reason to believt
they like it.
The S.,ntinel has more thar
2,000 paid up subscribers, whici
we claim is twice as many a
the Easley paper has. If W<
claim too much. let the Pro
gress come across with -a state
ment as to their paid-up circu
lation and if they have mor<
than half as many paid-up sub
scriiers as we have, we wil
quit claiming twice as many.
Swat the fly; swat him early
often and hard.
Let every day be cleanup da,

"I met a man yesterday." said Mr.
Noodleson, trying to make himself
ragreeable, "who told me that you were
'an old friend of his."
She did not answer immediately,
,but after clasping her hands tightly
several times and biting her under lip
iuntil it nearly bled, the beautiful
grass widow replied with forced
mirth:
"You musn't believe all you hear,
-Mr. Noodleson. I am nobody's "old
friend"
'Half an hour later he suddenly be
gan to laugh 'with all his might, and
told her she was the "cleverest girl
In the world. Ha, ha, ha! Such a
witty thing-that about not being
Ianybody's 'old' friend, you know!"
It was dark and very. still out in
the streets when he went away, and
as she watched him waft a kiss back
to her just before he turned the cor
ner, she sighed sweetly and said to
herself:
"Ah, what wonders people in this
world could accomplish If they would
always try to turn the laugh right in
stead of getting mad."
Her Little Hand.
Her little hand! How gladly I
Once held it prisoned in my own;
How thrilled I was to feel It lie
There softly, as we sat alone!
Ah me! how fair -the castles were
That in the air loomed rich and grand.
While coyly she permitted me
ITo fondly hold her little hand.
Her little hand! When I arise
From slumber to take up my cares,
To stretch myself and rub my eyes,
And help to run the world's affairs,
I find my clothes all strewn about,
As leaves are- strewn upon the strand,
With all the pockets inside out
Alas! her eager little hand.
