WJ put more than three cents worth in this paper each week, and it is not our fault if anybody cannot get it out. Tin: unusually sound News and Courier is quite correct. Nothing should bother ai man who is so fortunate as to dwell in Pickens. (IRIMBLING is a bad habit. Some people would grumble and growl if they had baked angel for dinner every day in the week. DIt) you know that Pickens had a millionaire citizen? Well, maybe not quite that-but Mr. E. H. Craig has a hen that laid 220 eggs last year. A CORRESPONDENT writes us: "You nrC so slightly henpecked that your editor friends haven't noticed that you are a married man. " It does look that way. WELL, well! Colonel Booker of the Spartanburg Journal has this heading to a prohibition editorial: "LeI Have. Something." The Crlonel must have fallen off the wagon. CARRANZA suggests that the United States place an embargo on munitions and everything else that helps to pro Jong thewar. Wellsuppose we begin "IT'S an ill wind,'' etc. The recent freezing weather in South Carolina has killed millions of the boll weevil, accord ing to a statement made by thle farm demonstration agent of Hampton county.

If all the mem bera were like him the general assembly would be of some benefit to the people. Sofkh newspapers are saying. it would be a good move on the part of the presi lent, in forming his next cabinet, to put Colonel Roosevelt in one of the several positions.

Ik, correspondents want their articles published in The Sentinel they must send their names along with the articles they want published. We will not pub lish your name if you do not want us to, but we must know who is the author of Lach article we publish. Bear this in m1ind, please. Tio we never saw the editor of the Williamsville (N. D.) Item,'we deeply sympathize with him, and oursympathy is explained by the following notice which recently appeared in his paper: "We wish to apologize to Mrs. Orlando Overlook. In our paper last week we had as a heading 'Mrs. Overlook's Big Feet.' The word we ought to have uied 14'a Frened word, pronounced the same way, but spelled fete. It means a celebration and is considered a very tony word." We Still Believe It's a Horn Newberr-y Observer. The heading of that good newspaper, Newberry Observer, is illustrated, and we know it's all right and all that; but would Brother Wallace mind telling us whether the man in the picture is aim ing a gun at something or taking a drink out of a long bottle?- Pickens Sentsinel. It's a telescope, you mountain galoot; and the man is observing what is going on in the world-which is represented by the circular picture at the right hand corner. Just now his gaze fixed on the two Americas. What you take for a hottle is half as long as a man. Whoever saw a bottle as long as that? How would a person carry it around? Hottles in this part of thfe state to drink outocf are eitherquart size or pocket flasks. Pickens moon shine bottles may be three feet long; but they never' get as far away from home as Newvberry'.
