from Clemson College: "Prune Well in

Well, we have been "keeping house"

Did you ever hear of a grass widow
having hay fever?-Anderson Mail.
No, but we know a rich one who has a
nice, big, juicy pile of rocks.
Next Tuesday is the anniversary of
the destruction of the battleshiplMaine
in Havana. harbor, February 15, 1898,
and which precipitated the Spanish
American war.
Someone is eternally working agin us
men. Now the General Federation of
Women's Clubs of America has decreed
that the girls shall wear them there
split waists no more!
Anderson Mail says Carranza and
Villa have not been using aeroplanes
and submarines, and that is to their
credit. But they have been "getting
there" just the same.
The fact that Wall Street and Big
Business generally is opposed to having
Mr. Brandies a member of the supreme
court is in itself the best reason on
earth why he should be there.
Trhe page in Torn Watson's Jeff'er
sonian on which comment appears of
the appointment of a Jew 'to the su
preme court bench is said to have been
printedl on asbestos last week.
Did it ever occur to you that there
are more automobiles in the county to

ago?---Anderson Daily Mail. Y'ep; more
unp~aid dlebts and mortgages, too.
Colonel Bob of the State says "It's

Spare the birds, boys-and men, too.

commission at $12,000 a year. .But to
accepit the pilace just at this time would
be too much of a sacrifice' for us to make

Mr. Groundhog didnl't see his shadow
on the second instunt in these parts.
Therefore, according to groundhog lore,
winter is over and those who believe in
the critter as a weather prophet can
pr-epare for an early spring. But do not
Diace too much confidence in hinm, as he
has often fooled us.
A young New York man says it's all
wrong, doctors-that you can't catch

advertising. An article that yousee
adverIsed continuously appeals to you.
Your' food sense tells you that it must
be tiilit, else it could not remain on the
nark4f. And. What advertising is ton
Indid'Ial article it is to a business in
stitution. Advertising draws 'trade to
a stor4. If that store continues to ad
vertise, it is satisfying its customnere.
No business cap 4mount to much with
aut advertising, ~nor ipdanavertising do
business any good unless that business
lives up to its advertis'ementi. Here,
then, is plainly s'en. Why it paysito
trade with thdcontinuous advertisers.

Rye, but he is a radicaliprohibitionist.
We would like the finest kind to own
an automobile, but we bedingswizzled if
We would buy one until we were clear

a seeing hard-working and honest

to waik . vhen we were riding at their
expense.,.
We fall to see what good it would do
for the legislature to pass a law making
the legal rate of interest in this state 6
per cent. unless the law would be en
forced. We believe the legal rate in
this state now is 8 per cent., but some
of the banks do not seem to pay any
attention to it and the law is daily vio
lated. By the way, why doesn't Gov
ernor Manning ask the legislature for
$50,000 or so to enforce the usury law?
Fat chance he would have of getting it,
tho. We know one member of the leg
islature who is a director of a bank
which charges 10 per cent. interest reg
ularly and sometimes 13 and 15 per cent.

eer at a man, ye gilded ones,
Because he's down and out;
The lane that never turns is long,
. You know beyond a doubt.
Don't sneer at a man because he's
Down below your social plane;
He may climb up while you go down
Never to rise again.
For if you spurn the man that's down,
Then lose.your present sphn e,
Pray, who will become your riend?
You'll find them scarce, I fear.
Don't sneer at a man because he's down
While you are upon the pole;
He may, some day, come climbing out
And kick you into the hole!

If you have never used a Mitchell Wagon, doAst a9k the nxih Whohas, or the blacksmith
