It All Depends. Considerable space is being devoted by some of the daily newspapers in the State to the publication of let ters from voters protesting against the attacks being made (presumably by Col. Edgar A. Brown) upon the , record of Senator E. D. Smith. It seems to us that we recall a campaign in recent years when the attacks of Candidates Pollock and Jennings up on the record of Candidate Blease were loudly applauded by everybody (including the press) except the sup porters of the present S?nator. All of which leads us to the conclusion that in politics, as in everything else, R all depends upon whose ox is being gored. In Ha of a Visitor.

" , l Thinp You Should Know Mill IUII by John Jos*! r* ii i “The State and Its Ranks." \ Under the shove caption. The News and Courier published an excellent ■ editorial Saturday on the banking aituation in-South Carolina and ques- tionod the justice of the State de posits being protected by a bank, whereas individual depositors are unsecured. Reference was in partictT-- lar to the situation in Colombia as a result of the closing of the Anveriran Banking and Trust Company. The Charleston paper also thinks that, under normal conditions, a bank failure should be virtually impossible Commenting along this line, our contemporary says: “But in the majority of cases, where a hank doses its doors in a normal period, there is ground for suspicion that too many loans of a doubtful character have been made. In every case where a hank does close its doors, one of the things to which the public has a right la a full accounting in public of every loan, with the. exact nature of the col lateral and exact statements as to the purpose for which the money was borrowed, whether for the legitimate conduct of a legitimate business, or whether for some frivolous purpose, whether as a striet business proposi- tion or because of some personal reason. The very fact that it was known in advance that this would be done in each and every ease would haw a far reaching and healthy ef fect. It would make the banker what he ought to be, more of an adviser for the bank's clients, and it would tend notably to decrease extravagance, since the people would under sugh conditions find it just as easy, per- j haps more easy, to secure loans for proper purpoars, yet almost impos sible to secure loans for foolish lux uries.” We thoroughly agree with The News and Courier. It happens too) often that when a bank fails, ugly rumors are circulated about vaxjous loans having been made without proper collateral, and quite often it happens that these rumors continue to circulate without official confirma- tion or denial. Much could be written about bank failures, jjut we’ll content ourself with ABSORPTION A DIGESTION Tlje human body i» nourished by the two processes, digestion and absorption; in the former, the food is saturated with digestive fluids in the stomach, and its particle.*' macerated and rendered fit for use in the tissues that requift nour ishment. _ The digestive process/ completed, the substances are pass ed on into the intestine, where ab sorption deposits them in the blood-vessels through suitable channels; absorption is automatic ami undiscriminativi; if poisons reach the absorbents, they are tak en up with quite as much avidity as if they were..harmless, and here is where misc.'ief starts. Most all of the fluid portion of food ia absorbed, whether it lias been digested or not. If not prop erly prepared in the stomach, it is unloaded into the circulation in n form that cannot he taken up hy tinsues requiring nutrition, ami the patient fails to understand how he eats so much, yet feels had all the time, and loses weight. The prob lem is with the digestive proce*; which goes, or should go on in the stomach. _ , When the body i«; tired at the end of the day, the digestive pro cesses are slowed down as well. A heavy meal is thrown into the stomach, at an hour when its ef ficiency is lowest. Only a fraction of the meal is digested—yet it is all absorbed! Is it any wonder that the patient awakens with "that Ured feeling” mid experiences ions or vitality with no desire for breakfast, ami with au un-fitness that is no than a warning of danger. Breakfast should hi* a g(*>d, substantial meal; roor-din- rer the same; and at fvwqjng, tako the minimum requirement.'Th:*' it the plan of the nl«ie*.f and irltHt vigorous people with whom 1 have •ome in contact.

A long stride toward progress has been made by a combination of producers for the distribution of e.'eotrie energy. 1 The joining of resources and faciHtiqp of the Edisto Public Service Company, (Denmark, S. C ) the Carolina Light and Power Company, (Aiken, S.

Added bo this great volume are all the steam plants that the central towns, which in the past, hive been the sole source of electric supply, By this modem arrangement, these steam equipments will he held in reserve^ "to bd used as auxiliaries, to be operated only at very infrequent intervals, when repairs may be needed to the water wheels, or other branches of the service. To anticipate future needs, and provide for the boundless commercial and agricultural activi- ty already awakened in this section, the Augusta-Aiken Railway and Electric Corporation has re cently completed a physical connection at Toccoa, Georgia, with the limitless supply of hydro power generated in the five States of Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North and South Carolina, and distri buted through the switch boards of the Geoigia Railway and Power Company at Atlanta. The* are the visible—the tangible evidence of the supreme faith shown, by the managements of these corporations in the business possibilities of the district in which they have spent, and are spending, hundreds of thousands of doHars to provide the most important agent—the most needed essential, for the development and prosperity of a favorable section, that needs but the work and faith of its citizens to achieve the very limits of industrial success, commercial supremacy and cultivated home life.
