INSTRUCTED KOR BRYAN.
Following is the resolution id' instruc
tion passed by th.e. Convention:
"Wo heartily endorse, a:; the candi- J
dato of the Democratic party for presi
dent of the United States, William
Jennings Bryan, and hereby instruct
and direct that the vole of South Caro
lina in tlv National Convention at Den
ver be cast as a unit for his nomination
until the same is secured."
lilt; PLATFORM.
We, the Democratic party of South
Carolina, in convention assembled, re
affirm our faith in the fundamental and
historic principles of the party of I
Thomas Jefferson, and call to tho na
tion to again put its trust in the party
of individual liberty and of "equal
rights to all and special privileges to
nouo.''
We favor the exercise by the general
government of all its constitutional,
authority for the prevention of monop
oly and for the regulation of interstate
Commerce; we insist that federal rem
edies shall be added lo, and not sub
stituted for. State remedies. We do-1
nounco as revolutionary the policy of,
the Republican party, that the powers
of the general government should bei
extended by judicial constructions.
A private monopoly is indefensible
ami intolerable. We, therefore, favor
the vigorous enforcement of the crimi
nal law against trusts and trust mag
nates, and demand the enactment of!
such additional legislation as may be |
necessary to make it Impossible for a
private monopoly tOOxist in the United
States.
We favor an immediate revision of
the tariff by the reduction of import
duties, and we denounce as hypocritical
the promise of the Republican party to
enact, such legislation after the elec-.
tions, Articles entering into competi
tion with articles controlled by trusts
should be placed upon the free list; ma
terial reductions should be made in the
tariff Upon the necessaries of life. Our
present financial conditions show tho
urgent necessity for a more elastic cur
rency system.
The Democratic party of the nation
should pledge the people that if placed
in power it will enact prompt but con
servative legislation to relieve present
conditions.
We favor the enactment of a fair and
just employers' liability law.
We sympathize with the efforts put
forth for the reclamation of the arid
lands of the West and the use of irri
gation in the development of th.e coun
try, and upon the same principle we
also favor the reclamation of swamp
lands.
Artists have no trouble in securing!
models. The famous beauties haVo di
carded corsets and have become models
in face and form since taking Holll

UNTRAINED CHILDREN.
Fidilor Petty Makes Some Pointed Coin
inents on an Important Subject.
In a certain town there was a school
with some teachers wise and otherwise.
There was also a variety of parents,
wise or otherwise. Of courso there
were children, for there could have been
no school, for In this day and time when
most people arrive at the mature Bgoof
eighteen they are too wise to learn or
to tfo to school.
Now on a certain day when one of
these teaehers was going up and down
and across tho streets of her town sock
ing some one that would tajk to her or
listen to her wisdom, crossed the path
of one willing to listen to what she said.
Now lu re is one of her sayings;
"It is a shame (he way poor people
who depend on their daily toil for a Hv?
in>c indtilgo iheir children. They buy
three times as much candy, fruit and
other luxuries for their children's
luncheon as do tho parents of people
with much monoy." That teacher was
stating what sho bolievcd to bo a fact.
Agenoral statement or two may he
based on that habit. When peoplo Who
make little money bring up their chil
dren In extravagant ways thdyaro pre*
paring to send thriftless young men and
women into the world. Whonboys and
girls reach tho age of twenty thus
trained they aro helploss. Just as soon
as the parental props are knocked from
undor them they fall or walk in Cfookod
paths. Hoys and girls should have a
chance even before they are eighteen,
We do not believe in pressing them and
kooping them down. Hoys should havo
a chance to learn how to black their
own shoes, split stove wood, work the
garden, help put things right about tho
house and back yard. They should have
a chance to loarn row to make a few
dollar- and take care of them. Thoy
should bo taught never to go in debt.
Girls should have a chance to learn bow
to cook, to cut and make garmonlS, to
set the table and arrange the dining
room like an artist, to give out and su
perintend tho rooking of meals. They
should also he taught the use of money.
Those suggestions apply to the children
of factory people as well as to those of
mill presidents. There are intelligent
women in this city who could not pre
pare a simple meal if they were turned
loose in a well equipped kitchen and
pantry. They know nothing of cook
ing. It is a most pitiable condition for
a young woman to start out in life too
poor to hire her work done and not
trained to do It herself. There are sev
eral homes in this city where the family
would go without breakfast and dinner,
too, if It depended on the male mem
bers to cut and split the stove wood and
the females to cook the food. Such a
condition should not exist. It arises,
no doubl, in part from the fact that the
parents in former days bought candy
ai d : tore lunches for their children and
gratified every wish the children ex
pressed, (living way to children, spoil
ing them, buying for thom things not
needed, never training thom u> work,
tends to make weaklings of thom, or
what 18 worse it finally lands them In
the criminal class. Carolina Spartan.
Very Serious
It is a very serious matter to aslc
for one medicine and have tho
wrong one given you. For this
reason we urge you in buying
to be careful to get the genuine?

Liver Medicine
The reputation of this old, relia
ble medicine, for constipation, in
digestion and liver trouble, is firm
ly established. It does not imitate
other medicines. It is better than
others, or it would not be the fa
vorite liver powder, with a larger
??lo than all others combined.
