Harpers,December 28:?Christmas was observed very quietly ^A ma "-I */\ ?*A.\Apf A]mA uci c. a.ui ^iau l\j ic^vi v umi that there was no drunkenness in town nor disorderly conductThis speaks well for our community. Your correspondent is informed that joung Mr Jeffords, of the Trio section, committed suicide Christmas day bj shooting himself, but no particulars of the tragedy have been learned. Mr Jeffords was an energetic young man and possessed an admirable disposition. The news of the sad event has cast a gloom over our coauBunity. Mr and Mrs H E Avant of Columbia have been visiting the , former's sister, Mr W S Camlin, Jr., at Harpers. Messrs K G Wilkerson, L A n- , Rogeison and Mack Jenkins Went on a deer drive on December 26 J and brought back to town a very' fine three proog buck; also many; of the feathered tribe have been; slain by the locaJ sportsmen during the holiday season. j 'Ttio writer enjoyed one of the ' 'finest strings of Black river trout ( that he ever saw in addition to the usual toothsome comestibles 1 incident to the Xmas fea6t. Our merchants complain that the holiday trade here was unusually dull. This condition is attributed to the low price of cotton. 1 hope before the end of the coming year to see our farmers fully organized into a truck association, which, it is coufidently hoped, will bring about better! times with tbera. We have been assured of the' co operation of our sister town, Rosemary, in our effort to organize ' "a Farmers' Union and truck association. We hope for success to crown our efforts if all will pull together to accomplish the desired end. We have beeu asked by the committee of arrangements to urge all the farmers of our community to come out and bring a well-filled basket on our Farmers' Rally day. Dinner will be served picnic style! to the farmers and their guests. Corns ?ut, everybody, and bring your basket.

Lfppiocatt's and the .\ew Year. * i ^ .1 !. in spite or me panic 01 xuuo, me publishers of Lippincoti's Magazine issert that the past year was one of the most successful iu that periodical's long history, Many good things have been secured for the eoming twelvemonth, a partial announcement of which was published in the December number. v The January number has an attractive table of contents, the leading feature of which is a complete novel, 'The Flight of Robert Sevier,'* by Grace MacGowan Cooke, author of "Return," "The Grapple," "Of the Lion's Breed," and other popular books. In this tale Mrs Cooke has evolved a plot as original as it is fantastic. Itdeals |with the doings of a young professor of chemistry, who discovers a fluid which, when injected into the living body of a human being or an animal, euables that body to float through the air. Be .. . i j; lieviug mac Ills uisuuvery euuuiu uui be made public before he has perfected it, he tries to conduct his experiments in secret.- Then the trouble bdgins. Few more mirth-provoking yarns have ever been presented, and he who can read it without laughing must be totally lacking in a sense of humor. ; There are some unusually good special articles, including one by George L. Knapp on that great yet morbid genius,Edgar Allan Poe,who was born just a hundred years ago. Harrison S.Morris writes on "Whistler," and Mis La Salle Corbell Pickett gives some interesting reminiscences of her soldier-husband, as well as of Generals Lee and Jackson, in a paper called "The January rjonorai/a " "Feed the Children." bv Ellis 0. Jones; "Tfce Blind Spot," by Edwin L. Sabin, and other seasonable topics are entertainingly discussed under the herding, "Ways of the Hour." Among the shorter stories "The Green-Room," the second of a notable series of theatrical tales by \V ill Levington Comfort,stands out prominently. "The Girl Who Forgot," by Eleanor Mercein Kelly, is a story which the reader is not likely to forget. Other good ones are: "The Turquoise Ring," by Karl von Kraft; "The Honor of the Chapter," by J R Belfield, and "The Woman Who Had No Needs,'' by Jane Beltield. Some bright miscellany includes a | very funny sketch on "Brains," by Thomas L Masson, and that mine of amusement, "Walnuts and Wine." Lippincott's is plainly on the upgrade. Do not forget that DeW itt's Lit tie Early Risers are the best pills made. They are pleasant little pills that are easy to take and are prompt and geutle. We sell and recommend them.
