After he had the hide split down the legs and belly, the goat jumped up and ran off, leaving the old man horror-stricken with his knife in his hand. Mr. Holder said: "When I caught the old fool again I chopped his head off be fore attempting to finish my job of removing his coat." It is reported from Pleasant Grove . section that during the Christmas holidays several win dows in the schoolhouse were broken, a blackboard cut to pieces, a water pitcher ahd a lamp belonging to the church destroyed, and to climax the whole thing, a cat, which evi dently had been shot several times, was hung up in a tree in the schoolhouse vard. And be sides all this, a buggy top was cut to pieces in a shed at 1). L. Barker's one night. Who con mitted these depredations re main a mystery. What is the world coming to? Vernon Corbin, the squirrel killer, moved away from Pump kintown last week. , He's gone to the mountains where there are ilenty of squirrels. The Hogwallow cbrrespondent says: "Miss Fiutie Belcher was thrown from her mule with a basket of eggs and Ellick Hell wanger." But how could El lick get into a basket of eggs? He must have had a somiwhat egg-citing time doing that. When Miss Fiutie fell off her mule the basket probably rolled into a gully and turned bottom upward, egg-sploding the eggs and im prisoning Elleck. However, we hope Miss Flutie quickly eggs t r i c a t e d that eggs-asperated youth from under that basket of eggs and egg-splained what had happened. Pardon us, Dunk; we knew what you meanit. But it was funny to look at it that way, and we ltnewv you wvould not "get on your ear" about it; you lik~e a joke too well for that. Go it, Dunk: you're creating many a smile, and a man who can create a smile in this sour old world is helping to make life a little brighter for someone. Not a single pumpkin can be seen inPumpkintown nowadays. We mean the kind that grows on a vine, 'of course. Our old-ime playmate, Elmer ureswas among the visitors t W D.Hendricks' Sunday.

Hester on Woman Suffrage Editor of The Pickens Senti nel: If you will give me space in your valuable columns I will have a say 0on Woman Suffrage. It is coming no matter what any man or set of men may do or say. When the old heredi tary slave spirit grows out of women they will enact and ex ecute the laws. She is major in number,. unsurpassed in in tellect,superior mn morality, and what she lacks In physical abil ity she overbalances in influ ence. Then why should she be governed by men? Note, if you please, where women have come from in ihe last nineteen hun dred years and you wvIll see at a glance where she will go in a few more dlecades. She is slow ly but surely emancipating her self ahd will soon be on a par with men, and then superior. Some of the youngest readers of this will live to see all this come true; Votes for women was started by an infidel, where all freedom has come from. Tom Paine was the first to advocate freedom for America; free press and free speech were started lby infidels, negro slavery was abol ished by the plans laid by infi dels, Bob Ingersoll being one of the greatest exponents. The theory that "Man shall rule his house",and that "Woman shall be subject to her husband"' are fast nassing behind the onward march of intelligence and women shall be free and she will be woman no longer and shall as sume another name for her sex. Repudiate any of this if you please and we will' bring the proof for every assertion. Respedtfully, Easlov. M. W. H1w1E3'Im IfWhy It Pays to Read, OeM A LL advertised utoods are more .9r less guaranteed goods They may not 'oa'rr# an absolute guarantee with :.the purchase, but.both: the minu facturer and the retailer knows that if he is offering an ai'ticle worth advertising it must - also be an article that will give satis faction, thus, the advertising of it implies a guarantee.

Jame son. who owns and resides on the James Lathem place near the old Arnold mill, four or five miles northeast of 'Easley. Mr. Jameson made the past year on a two and one-half horse crop twenty-seven bales of cotton, which sold for more than $1,600, besides $240.00 worth of cotton seed, cribbed over 300 bushels of corn, and made 240 bushels of peavine hav, besides plenty of vegetables of all kinds'to do his familv. When it is known that Mr Janieson is a cripple, hav Ing only one hand, his success seems moro remarkable. It shows what enere-y and perse verance will accomplish even under adverse circumstances.
