In North Carolina the railroads have agreed to submit to the two and a quarter cents a mile rate, to sell tickets at that price, and mean while they appeal on the ground that the rate is confiscatory. We do not now whether it is or not. Neither es the North Carolina legislature >w. The North Carolina legislature TuTes not know whether the Laurens ADVERTISER can afford to sell adver tising space at two cents and a quarter an inch or not. Whenever the South Carolina legislatures concludes to pass! an act limiting Tin: ADVERTISER to j a two and a quarter cents PO inch rate, they can take the paper and run it themselves. If it is reasonable and fair to cut down the price of hauling pcoplo one third, it is cqunlly reasona ble and fair for the legislature to cut I down the price for hauling freight one! third. If they can cut it one third, they can cut it one half and two thirds and after awhile the railroad owners I will say "Take the old nusiance of a railroad and run it your selves. Meantime, reduction in railroad pas senger fares helps only a part of the people. It helps the drummer who spends .$500. a year for railroad tickets. Ithelps the manufacturer who spends $500. a year for tickets. It helps the well-to-do man who spends $200. a year sending his family to the mountains or to the seashore for the summer and who sends his boys and girls to college. It helps the lawyers who go to the sur prcme court three or four times a year and it helps the merchants who go to New York for goods twice a year" Half the people spend not over five or ten dollars a year in railroad riding and nearly half, the poorer women and children scattered about on the country farms, don't ride on the rail roads at all. Reduction in passenger ] fares may save a cotton mill operative two dollars a year but it will save the cotton mill president $200. dollars year. Isn't that so? Why don't the legislature cut down the railroad rates OU Missun mules? The Laurens farmers are more interes ted in buying a mule ticket for ten dol lars instead of fifteen than in buying cheap tickets for themselves The Laurens farmer and mill operative and ] and everybody else pays freight on hog, hominy, colfee, calico, fertilizer fnrni ture, nails, hoes, clothes, shoes, books, grits, rice, horse collars, wagons, Hour j " and nearly all he uses. A cut of one third in freight rates would help every body, that would be "special privileges to none" and equal assistance to the balance of mankind, but the cut in pas senger fares, to which the politicians are devoting all their time, will help t he drummer most and will be of considera ble comfort to the preachers, especially the colored preachers who are the greatest travelers that this country produces. k But, when they slash freight rates ^wildly and deeply, not knowing what Whey are doing, they will force the rail t roads into the hands ot recoi. "irs. That ' would bo excellent for the lawyers. The legislature will, if they persevere, put the railroads out of business. Then the United States government will buy ^jhein at auction and operate them. SBfe"'1"'''" :i and engineers will be chosen fvii service examination and in the h the negroes get a large propor n of civil service places. We are second to none in enjoying he legitimate game of abusing the ailroad.,. That is why the railroads [c bore?to bo abused.

Chief of Police Collins is not a gamb ling man, but he admits having once played the ponies. It was years ago, says the Chicago Tribune. This is the story: "I didn't know one horse from an other, but I heard the men in the de partment telling about the money they had won. If they lost a bet they nev er mentioned it. One day, during a meeting at the Robcy track, a 'copper, at Harrison told mo he was going to put $5 on a 'good thing,' as he called it. I said to him in a joke: 'Why don't you play Stayaway? That's the best horse out there to-day.' "The meaning I wish to convey was that if he stayed away from the track he would be winner. He was a dense sort of feilew, and didn't catch the quiet sarcasm, "So out he goes to Robey, and, re membering my tip to ply 'Stayaway,' he looks the card and sees a horse named 'Getaway' in the third race. He was 8 to I for first place. The 'copper,' thinking he had got the names mixed, laid his $5 on 'Getaway,' who came under the wire about a block ahead of the others. "When ho returned to the station he handed me a $20 bill with the re mark: 'I played that horse you gave me, lieutenant, and won $40. This is your half of it." Remedy for Diarrhoea. Never Known to Fail. "I want to say a few words for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy. I have used this prep aration iq my family for the past five pears and have recommended it to number of people in York county and have never known it tc fail to effect a cure in any instance.

A lawyer was talking about the late Samuel C. T. Dodd, the Standard oil lawyer, whose salary from the great corporation was $200,000 a year. "Mr. Dodd," said the lawyer, "had an excellent legal talent. He it was, you know, who oaganized the Standard Oil trust. What further endeared him to Mr. Rockefeller were his strict views on the observance of the Sab bath. "They tell a story about Dodd when he was a struggling practitioner in Franklin. "There was a Franklin minister who went gunning a good deal, and altogeth er was rather a sporting character. "At a little church supper one night the minister wns boasting about his knowledge of horses and hunting, his marksmanship and so on, when Dodd interrupted him. "You're a good sportsman, are you?' he said. "'Well,' said the minister, not sus pecting any trap, 'I am not a bad sportsman, if I do say it myself.' " 'Yet,' said Dodd, 'If I were a bird, I could hide where there,d be no dan ger of your potting me.' " 'Where would you hide?' asked the minister. " 'I'd hide.' Dodd answered, 'in your study!" ?

'ill Mrke This Summer s Attempt the Most Daring of All. Frederick Boyd Stevenson, in Harper's j Weekly. Will he make it? I asked him this question the pthpff day. He turned in his chair and looked at me. The muscles of his face hu'f re laxed. Peary seldom smiles. "I hope to make It," -he said, Quietly. "This will be my last attempt . I be lieve it will be successful." Despite the softness of his voice one felt the conviction of the conquest. He gave no promise, no hint of the break ing of the far north record in 1900, when he advanced within 2?? miles of the goal.. There was no boasting of past achieve ment; no speculating on future glories. Peary is perhaps better qualified than any other In this uqest of the pole. He j began it20 years ago, and on each of the seven journeys he has made to the arctic zone he has been pushing farther and farther north. In Iiis heart is the confidence of success on this eighth journey. "The beginning and the end of a polar expedition may be expressed in one I word," said the commander. "That is] food. It is not the cold, it is not the exposure, but the failure of supplies that wrecks the enterprise. Three things are actually needed for food the north: pemmican?a dried meat that can be made into soup- ship-biscuit and tea. Tea is a stimulant, soono can get along without that; ship-biscuits are a luxury, so one can get along with out them; but pemmican is a necessity tiiat one must have in the arctic re gion." But a man who confesses to have eaten raw dog with a relish may not be generally considered as a purveyor of templing menus. "Dog meal?" Perhaps repealed. Why, one who can eat hog meat or craves the delicacy of Limburger clu e.-"1 can have nothing to say against dog. To be sure, the hind leg of an over worked dog is a liltle tough and rank sometimes, but a man who has eaten mutton stew in a cheap restaurant can not complain, nor is he apt lo com plain when the gnawing of his appetite attacks him with the temperature 70 degrese below zero. The dogs readily eat their comrades when they fall by the way, and this, to a great extent, solves the problem of feeding the ani mals. I have considered the question of taking dog-biscuit with me on my dash to the pole; but while the Siberian dogs will eat it, the dogs which 1 use on my expeditions?practically all wolf will eat nothing but meat." "How about alcoholic drinks?" 1 asked. The answer came concisely: "No man can drink alcoholic liquor who goes to the north. It would mean death to the man and a menace to the expedit Ion.'' "And smoking?" "The man who is dependent on his cigar or pipe might better remain at home. Why, 1 should as soon think of taking a man who had to have a piece of pie ever so often. The personnel of your men is the first consideration. Upon them depends everything. In the first place they must be of cheerful temperament and not subject to lits of the blues, and every man must under stand in advance that he must meet the greatest hardships and self-deni als. He must be willing to suffer cold and hunger, to forego sleep?in a word, to be ready to sacriliice his life, if need be, for the success of the undertaking." "Have you found such men?" He nodded. "Yes; for the most part they are the same men who went with me before. I can trust every one of them under every circumstance." Peary has been so long in the arctic game that the question of dress for the north has ceased to concern him. While on his sledge trips he sleeps in the open air and on the ice in a sleeping bag of fur, clad only in an undershirt. When he arises he hastily pulls on a pair ; of drawers which have frozen during the night. His trousers and socks are Idled with snow, but he puts them on undaunted, and quickly thrusting bis feet into a pair of kamiks, or shoes, als?) filled with snow and ice, and pulling on a big fur overcoat, he is ready for his day,S journey. "One docs not mind the cold In the north," said he. "Temperature ranges from 50 above to 75 below zero, and if a man takes care of himself he need suffer no inconvenience on account of the weather. There is really no danger of freezing to death in the arctic zone." Neighbors Got Pooled. "I was literally coughing myself to death, and had become too weak to leave my bed; and neighbors predicted that 1 would never leave it alive; but they got fooled, for thanks be to God, I was induced to try Or, King's New Discovery. It took just four one dollar bottles to completely cure the cough and restore me to good sound health," writes Mrs. Eva Uncaphcr, of Grovers town, Stark Co., Inu.

In tho Shape of Pretaela and Ccrlnlu < liken?The Siege of Ron-1 took and CS)C linker* of Schwann. tJcriiiiin Commemorative Cakca. Who would think of the pretzel ns an astronomical symbol or tho hot cross bun as a missionary document? Yet It Is said that originally the ono was In tended to represent tho sun and the four seasons and the other to convert pagan England to Christianity. The former Is declared to have been first made by tho Kornaus, who called It the annulus?a word they ore said to have formed out of anuus, a year?by which they meant a year ring. The ring represented the sun's annual circuit and the four spokes tho Bcasons. It was afterward known under other names In the more northerly countries of Europe. There aro two stories of tho origin of the hot cross bun. Tho Christian missionaries to England aro said to have discovered that, although they could alter tho views of the peo ple on religious matters, taey could not Induce them to abandon their time honored pagan customs. Ono of these was tho eating of a certain kind of cake in honor of tho (Joddess of Sining. They decided to put the sign of the cross on tho Bason buna and launch them forth on a missionary en terprise The buns accomplished their mission. The other story Is that In early times In the observance of holy week the church was more strict In the matter of fasts Hum now. Only n certain amount of food could he eaten. This was indicated by two boundary marks made In the dough to show tho length and width of the piece. The loaves wore sold In churches and wero car ried from plaee to place by pilgrims. So the custom of crossing tho bread used on Good Friday became fixed. Tticso aro not tho only kinds of Shapes of bread whose origin has been traced to odd circumstances. The cres cent shaped rolls which ono sees In some parts of the city had a curious birth. On one of tho occasions when tho Turks besieged Vienna, Peter Windier and his wife had a bakery in Hint city. This baker's patriotism was tinctured with a sense of humor and possibly a souse of business. At any rate, he conceived the Idea of making rolls in the shape of a crescent, the emblem of the Turks. They found a ready sale, for everyhody wanted to devour tho half moons typifying tho Mohammedans at the outer gate. Germany Is the home of commemora tive cakes and bread. Other countries, while having as many varieties, have not woven sentiment about them to tho same extent. A great many Americans would not know what schwaanerkuchen Is unless they asked n native of the old German City of Rostock. It Is to bo had only at a certain season of the year because it commemorates a kindly act of many years ago. Rostock was surrounded by an enemy. The city gates wero closed, and the enemy had come close to tho walls, w*Uh clubs, spears, heavy mortar slings and many other old time Imple ments of war. Once and again and again they rushed upon the walls with thunderous noiso and clanging weap ons, but the brave burghers as often forced them back. Thon, urged for ward by threatening famine, tho latter sallied beyond the gates and drove back (1)0 foe until the siege was raised. it was with groat Joy that they saw the bakers of Scft'waan, a village twelve miles down the river Warnow, at the gate as the enemy drew away, bearing heavily laden baskets of cakes. It was such a godsend to the famished burghers that they rownrded tho Schwaanor bakers by giving them the privilege of coming to Rostock every year oil Maundy Thursday to offer their cakes for sale. For many years this custom prevailed, to the profit of the bakers from tho neighboring town. In time, however, the bakers of Ros tock, showing ingratitude, some might think, baked the schwaanerkuchen themselves. To this very day every body in Rostock eats schwaanerkuchen in holy week. Another German bread, which in shape resembles a Capital W, owes its existence to tho siege of the Ger man town of Krallsholm In 1.170. It is called haar ?ffen, or hair monkeys, a name suggested by the appearance of the apparition which raised the siege. The efforts of the besiegers to take the place had been in vain. They decided to starve the burghers and their fami lies. So they sat down before tho town. There they sat for seven months. By this lime the provisions were get ting short, and starvation seemed In evitable. One woman had pondered long upon the subject, and finally she said to tho head of tho defenders: "The people outside the WJ*H aro su perstitious. Let mo mnsquorndo at night before them on the city wall In a peculiar dress." she was permitted to carry out her plan. When her fantastic flguro was seen upon the wall In the dim light, Hitting from point to point, climbing nimbly over obstacles, taey were horror stricken. "Haar nffol" they exclaimed, point ing at the apparition on tho wall. "It Is an evil spirit." The following night they tied from the town. In remembrance of the success of the ruse this peculiar shaped cake was made. For nioro than 500 years the authorities of tho elty havo celebrated the anniversary by distributing largo quantities of theso cakes among tho I.r and the children of the city.? New York Tribune, ?Corn in the Crib.' Tumbling Shoals, August 1. ?Mr. Joseph Davenport, a Confederate Vet eran living near Princeton, to-day brought down a load of corn to have ground into meal. After the miller had put the corn into the hopper, I was looking at it and asked Davenport this question: Is this bought corn? "Why no, man, I never bought but one sack Of corn in my life and could have done without that sack. I now have at home 40 bushels of corn, and biothcr Billy has 60 bushels in his crib. It appears to mo when a man has plenty of corn in his crib ho don't need much else. He has mules, cows, hogs and chickens, and lives at home."
