Mouutvillc. / us S.?One of the most pleasant visits we have? made In sever al years was the one recently made to Ware Sh.'.als, Donalds, Honen Path. Boyd's mill. Kkom. and intervening sections. Many changes are noticeable, it is true, during the few years since we lived and wrought and wandered over these places, but the familiar faces, the pleasant homes, the kind hospitali ty, call up memories of former experi ences which almost inspire a wish to live again one's pas! life. In the homes of .lohn Culbertson, s. M. Cooper, II. Y. Fuller. Prof. .1. B. Watkius. Robert Coleinan, and others on the Journey we were made to feel that life is not simply a bundle of cores and worries, but eminently worth the living. The more we learn the "netter do we know that the character of life is not the product of fate but Of purpose any way. We stopped a while at Turkey Creek church among fwhoso people we used to mingle and worship. The old church house has been replaced by a new and better one. but the shady oaks and other familiar situations still remind us of Revs. Hurts and Martin, and of the Agnews, Barmores, McGees, Rasors, and others whose voices min gled in song, prayer, and sermon. Ware Shoals is growing and is soon to be one of our largest mill towns. Honea Path is rapidly increasing in population and business and is al ready taking on city appearances and proportions. Laurens county has con tributed largely to the growth of this prosperous to vn in quite a number of her best oi.izens. Among these should be mentioned our own ,T. B. Watkins whose noble life and Intellec ual talents have contributed so much to the moral and educational life of Honen Path. Many others deserve special mention If time and space WOUld allow. Lieut. IT. V. Fuller, though in declin ing health, is still in the depths of his patriotic soul the same spirited war horse of the former sixties. Many splendid farms and line crops along the journey bespeak Increased Interest and improved methods in agri culture, especially corn culture. But wo me again at home and. though humble it may bo, there is no other place just like it. The trustees of .Mouniville school have begun work on the enlargement of the school building. Several feet will be added to two of the main rooms giving greater space for recitation and enlarging the assembly room. A series of revival meetings at the Baptist church closed Sunday night. The pastor, Rev. B. P. Mitchell, had the assistance of Rev. A. T. Stotlden mire of Laurens In conducting the meetings. Miss Minnie PrevaM of Planters ville, K. ('. was here Friday and Sat urday working for the Gospel Forum. Quito a number of young people are visiting in town from different sections of the county and their friends here delight to accord them their enter tainment and hospitality. Mr. J. Wade Culbertson of Poplar Springs is building a new bridge on Little River at Milton. Mr. J, L. Boyd has bought the Griff Williams farm four miles below Mount ville. FASCINATING HAIR.

UNCLE JOE GIBSON ON SENATOR TILLMAN Old Xegro Who Can Command the Senator to "Shot Up Cussla" and He Stops. Richard Carrol!. the well known negro educator and preacher contri butes the following story to the Co lumbia State: 1 attended tho Sunday school con vention of the Mt. Canaan association at Bland Baptist church, between Trenton and Johnston. Soon after I had finished my speech 1 met Joe Oib Bon, a colored man. who has lived with Senator Tillman 36 years. Uncle Joe is <><? years old and possesses con siderable intelligence and refinement. Me was neatly dressed and the side heard which he wore was in keeping with a style peculiarly his own. He drove one of Senat >r Tillman's mules to a neat buggy. But he said that he could have driven one of the horses if he had so desired. He said also that what belongs to Senator Tillman be longs to him. When 1 came upon Un cle Joe he was lecturing the crowd about, him on the excellent qualities of Senator Tillman. I asked Uncle Joe if he did not think It was time he was leaving Senator Tillman. He an swered. "For what, to go where, There Is no place on earth better than Mr. Tillman's home. None better for me than hebben." "Does Senator Tillman curse much?" was asked the old man. "Yes. but he don't cuss me: and when he .nils to cussin' around me l ken stop him. He hears me. All 1 have lo say to him is 'Von shet up dat cus sin' now.Well," said 1. "what is your occupation oil the senator's place?" "[ tens to seator's business, an' I tells you right now. Senator Till man can't get no white man to ten to his business like 1 do; an' you nor no other man. white or black, can't come thar an' git nothin' from Senator Till man 'less he come in an' through by me. He sens everybody to me." "Did Senator Tillman ever knock you?" "No. lawd." said Uncle Joe. "Ho never knock me hIsself, and thar ain't no nigger nor white man dat dare put his hand on me while de senator lives; an' Mr. Tillman's wife is de lies' woman in do United States." "How does his son treat you? Did he ever knock you?" "He never put his ban' on me senc.e he was born. I raised him, and knocked him many times he 'served It; but he never knocked me. Don't yer know dat Senator Tillman is as much a gentleman as any white man you know?" "How does lie treat other colored people on his place?Preat em like he treat me. He cuss at 'em sometime, but his cussin' ain't nothin'; he ain't nothin' but mout'." ? Don't you think you had better go some where else and live now?" "Does you think 1 is a fool? Mine you. Rev. Carroll, Senator Tillman gives you a cow one time, an' he wouldn't er done so if I hadn't-ter agreed. All' you got a good brekfus at our home de furst morilln'. Now yer wants me to lOVO him. I'se gwine to tell him dat you ain't as good a lien as you make out. How could I do thout him and he do thout me? I will die today lor him, an' he wud die for me." About this lime Rev. (Jeorge Mor gan, who belonged to ex-Gov. Pickcns, and who is about 70 years old. another dignified, high-toned and aristocratic colored man with intelligence, came in the ring to tell something about C.ov. IMckens and his family. He told how he was one of the pallbearers for C.ov. Pickcns and his wife, and how kind he was to "his niggers." As Rev. Mor gan told of Mr. IMckens be wen*. He said "Richard Carroll, you live in Co lumbia, and if you want a picture of my boss you see Dr. Butler, who prac tices medicine in Columbia." Uncle Joe at this point got angry and walked away, and said. "I don't keer who yer boss was. he didn't treat you no better then 1 was treated." This was a very interesting conversa tion to me. 1 have made live or si\ visits to Senator Tillman's home in the last 20 years, and have always found Undo Joe al his post of duty. One would think from Senator Tillman's abuse of negroes on the stump and elsewhere thai lie is mean to negroes. But Uncle Joe pul it right when he said. "Rev. Carroll. Senator Tillman makes dein speeches jes' for fun. He talks dat way jes' 'cause some people likes to hear him." State of Ohio. City of Toledo, Lucas County. ss. Frank J.

Measured by the hard and fast ruh? of absolute consistency on the liquor issue, or any other issue, there Is no candidate for governor that could show an unvaried record. Mr. Featherstpne, when a candi date for governor in 1898, advocated Statt? prohibition ami opposed the state dispensary. He opposed the State dispensary as long as it exist ed which is something to bis credit, at least -but witli thousands of other prohibitionists he supported the local option idea and the local option can didate in l'JUO and 1!>()7 as the means of destroying the State dispensary. | Mr. Richards was an ardent and j ; persistent advocate of the State dis pensary, against both prohibition and j local option, but in the dying days of j the State dispensary supported pro- j hibition in order to defeat local op. ; tlon. After the death of the dispensary he became an advocate of prohibit ion ; and has been at least consistent in never supporting local option, ex cept that he voted for the BrlCS bill. In so doing he was inconsistent with his present attitude, favoring State prohibition, and opposing local op tion. Mr. McLeod, both as a member of ', the house and the senate, supported | the state dispensary. In 1906 as a member of the senate, he voted for th>- Raysor-Monning-dispensary-purifl cation bill, which wa substituted in that body for the Morgan local op tion bill, to which it was antagonistic, avowedly and logically. During the campaign of 1906, Mr. McLeod, an unopposed candidate for lieutenant governor, was understood to he in favor of preserving the State dispen sary, ami opposed to local option. Yet in announcing his candidacy for gov ernor this year Mr. McLeod came out strongly for local option. Mr. Illease was a thick and-thin supporter of the State dispensary all its life and made the most resource ful and effective light in Die senate against the Carey-Cothran bill, which was lo seal the doom of the dispen sary by the institution of local option. Now Mr. 131 ease is a local optionist, going even further in his advocacy oi options than the Carey-Cothran law went. Mr. Hyatt, though he says he was born a prohibitionist, in 1900 support ed the State dispensary and its candi date for governor. What difference does it make ; Times change, conditions change, and men who think must change with them. John C. Calhoun supported protection and opposed protection at different times under different condi tions. Even so steadfast a statesman as Martin F. Ansel ran for governor as an ardent advocate of the State dispensary in 1902 and then turned around and ran as a local optionist in 1906. His position in 1902 did not deter local optlonists from supporting him four years later. As a matter of fact, having vainly tried to destroy the state dispensary by a straight light for State p ohibi tlon, the prohibit ionists of South Carolina, with few exceptions, voted for local option candidates in 1906. The abolition of the state dispensary was secured in 1907. The prohibi tionists were th .. free to light again for State prohibition. In his really masterful speech during the debate on the Carey-Cothran bill in 1907, Mr. Carey plainly declared that he was a prohibitionist, that he was support ing local option as a means to an end and that when that end was ac complished he expected to tight for State prohibition. lie represented the views of the majority of prohibition ists in the State. on the other hand, Mr. Richards, at the same time as plainly defined Iiis attitude. After the abolition of the Stati' dispensary and its elimina tion from the politics of the State as an issue, the former supporters of that system were compelled to take either prohibition or local option stands, or remain mute observers of public affairs. Mr. Richards took pro hibition: Mr. Illease took local op tion. No one thinks the less of either of t hem for so doing. All of which has little or nothing to do with the selection of the gov ! emor in DUO. Vet if one candidate Is to be measured by the yardstick of I consistency, let them all be so mea sured < olunibla Record. DANDRUFF MEANS BALDNESS. Dandruff is caused by a germ?a ?
