The Law Department of th? South Carolina College. In addition to the regular lectures by the professors of law of the South Car olins College, 'he trustees nnd faculty are pleased to be able to announce for the < ? mini; pension a very attractive aeries of lectures to bo contributed by .?nint? of the lending members of the Mr ii< ? I and llnr of .South Carolina. Amol one who hnve consented to dellve. ..or or more lectures to the law classes of the College are: Hon. Charles It. Hlmonton. IJ. H. Circuit Judge; Hon. William II. Hrawley, U. S. District Judge: Hon. Y. J. Pope, Chief Justice of South Carolina: Hon. C. A. Woods. Associate Justice; Hon. ICugene H. tlary, Associate Justice; lion. Kdwnrd McCrady, Hon. J. C. Sheppard, Hon. (?. Duncan Helllnger. Hon. s. J. Simp son. Hon. J. I*. Carey, and Hon. Andrew Crawford. The trustees and faculty feel that in aecurhiR the assistance of these dis tinguished Judges and lawyers they have accomplished something that will prove of the greatest benefit to thone tuklng the law course in the South Carolina College. The number of those enrolled In the law department during the last two years hus been the largest In the history of the college, nnd the hope In entertained that the prospect of these additional lectures may still further Increase the growing number of law students. The great value of the training af fixed by schools of law has been too thoroughly demonstrated to render necessary any arguments In their sup port. The day of preparation for tha bar by solitary study in a lawyer'* office has practically passed. Kveryone familiar With the working of a law school must bays bf?t) Impressed with the Increased Interest aiid *?al thaf re sult from the mere association of young men who have come together for the common purpose of studying law. The dally discussions of questions of law, not only with the professors, but also with each othhr, beget an enthusiasm for the law which possibly, |n pofqe \n? stances, could never have been acquired ,-therwl#t*>. The advantage of attending a profes sional school In the State in which a msn I* tu practice h|s profession Islli no case more obvious Mian in thpt o'f ?> law>:**. Besides the familiarity gained with the ie? isions and statute law of the Htate, the friendships that he forms at such a school add very materially to his future uscfulncu ft$ a c|tiii?n. *^bn career of lawyers as a eins? Is more apt to be of a public nature than that of those engaged In any other profession or buslness.|| Not only are all of the Judges of the State drawn from the bar, but the occupants of the legislative and executive otrliee are al?q drawn very largely from trie saivt? source. As so many of the m?mbera of the legal pro fession are naturally destined to public careers, it Is of no iikIp Importance that the young men who have decided to become lawyers should come Into close touch with other young men of their own State who hare choren the same Mfe-work. The meet lasting friendships are not Infrequently formed during the part of a man's life (hat i* usually devoted to preparation for (he bait and It 1* un fortunate If this period should be spent In a State other than thot In which he Is to live. Several years spent at a pro fession school In another Slate some times find the student so completely out of toueh with the young men of his own State that when he returns to practice hl? profession he find* filmself laboring under a serious disadvantage, which In some Instances Is never over come. A law school, however, should be patronized not alone by those Intending to practice law. There is hardly a eall Ing In life for which one would not be better prepnred by having taken a course In law. Almost everyone who has made an earnest study of the law will agree with Rurkc that It Is a "aelenee which does more to quicken and Invigorate the understanding than all other kind* of humat) learning put together." Thf hops (? Indulged, there fore, that the attendance upon (he law school of the Smith Carolina College may Include ?ome who have not d?. termlned to make law their profession. Columbia as the capital of the State presents many advantages for the law student.#The sessions of th* Supreme Court of the State, of the State Circuit Courts, and of tfce Federal Court?, give hint frequenf opportunity to hear argu ments by the leading lawyer* of the State, and to witness the practical ad ministration of the principle* of the law. In prosecuting his studies he will tdso find that having aeceaa to the law library of the Supreme Court, as well ae to the College library, will be of the greatest value to him.

We realize that thU i9 claiming a great deal, and we could not aft'ord to make this assertion unless we knew that we could prove it to be true. But it does not take an export to test tho softness of a Mineral Water. Whon carbonating a mineral water, if it is a hard wtitor the gases will not bo absorbed in the water, and when tho bottle is opened, the gas es escape, and the water Is left flat nnd hard, while if It in a soft wator, like White Stone Lithia, it will retain its gases for hours after being unstopped. Read what somo proinlnont persons you know have to say of tho merits of the White Stone Lithia Water: Greenville, S. C, Oct. 10, 1902, Laurene, S. C, Sept. 10th, 1902. J. T. Harris, Esq., White Stone Spring, S. C. Dear Sir:?I am using White Stone Lithia Spring's Water, and am very much pleased with results. I think it the best I have used. Yours very respectfully, O. B. Simmons. Laurens, 8. C, 8ept. 12th, 1902. Mr. J. T. Harris. White Stone Sprlngi, S. C. Dear Sir:?I take pleasure in saying that my family received great benefit from the use of White Stone Lithia Water. I can heartily recommend it to any one in need of a healthful Mineral Water. Very truly, J. O. C. Fleming. After a servico of one season at White Stone Lithia Springs, ai resi dent physician I do not hesitate to say that the effect of the wator upon thoso who drink it for any length of time, has been perfectly marvelous, invari ably an increase both in flesh and ap petite was perceptibio in one week, proving it to be a mineral wator of undoubted powerful tonic property. Its peculiar adaptability to diseases origi nating from disorders of the kidnoy, bladder and liver, such as Dropsy, Bright's diseases, Diabetes and uric acid calculi, and all forms of Dyspepsia, Rheumatism and Gout is to be ex pected from the splendid analysis. It has been noted frequently that visi tors before coming here had to follow every meal with some form of correc tive, or confine themselves entirely to prcuigested foods; soon discard thoae entirely, being delighted to find that tho water alone?nature's OMn remedy sufficed. Of the many who drink this water this soason for ten days consecu tively,not one but experienced decided benefit and a perceptib'.e gain in welgt, varying from two to five pounds. L. C. Stevens, M.
