Friday afternoon in honor of.Mrs, John W Ervin of Chickasa, Okla. | The entertainment was in the na , ture of a lawn party at which a guessing contest was the principal feature. In this the prize, a fan, was awarded to Mrs LeRoy Lee. During the evening delightful refreshments were served, salad, cream, etc. As a souvenir of the occasion a pillow top was presented to the fair young bride on which all the guests wrote their names. The evening was pronounced a most delightful one by all who had the good fortune to attend. Kingstree has had her full share )f June brides this year, four couples having joined hearts and hands jinpp the 1 st instant. Two more wed .lings are scheduled to take place on the 30th, one in Charleston, and one in Indiantown, this county.

The question when to ''lay bv' a corn or cotton crop is about as susceptible of a detiuite answer as, 'What is the size of an Irish potato?" Cotton being of slower and longer growth, is cultivated later than corn, but beyond doubt both could usually be cultivated longer vith very profitable results. It is pretty nertain that those who get setter results by layiug their crops early, cultivated too deeply in the latter part of the season, at least. Lite in the season, no cultivation is certainly preferable to deep cultiva:ion and the consequent cutting of ;he roots. In a wet season, when the crops are cleau, little or nothing i gained by late cultivation; but in Iry seasons, if the cultivation be hallow, even though the crop be clean, and no matter what the stage )f its growth so long as it is still growing, there is no manner of loubt about its paying to continue :he cultivation. ? /'rof/rcsstre FttrmT.

"The recent press reports touching the use of whiskey by juries in .Tennessee," says a New York lawyer. "reminds me of an amusing in cident in connection with a trial I cnce witnessed in Arkansas. ' The defendant had been accused }f selling adulterated liquor, and some whiskey was offered in evidence. This was given the jury as evidence to assist in its deliberations. 'When they finally filed into court, his Honor asked: " 'Has the jury agreed on a verdict?'" "No, your Honor,' responded the foreman, 'and before we do we should like to have more evidence.'" ?July LippinroWs itrommmmmrammttimmm We are Kingsi n guai \irolina, of which all Southerners ossible only by the use of tine cot List what you want for looks, coml WEAR, Not to give fair satisfr t wear you get new ones.

Some time ago we undertook a study in luxury for the benefit of our readers who are fond ??f the best things to eat and explained how to make ''drop dumplings." They must be dough of real cornmeal and cooked in the boiling liquor in an iron pot, out of which the ham therein just boiled had been lifted. But we received from a person in Xorth Carolina named Pence this communication: "You are all oft about them drop dumplings. You can't have 'em 'cepting with a 1 tiled hen." It is this man C nee who is oft. He has simply c nfounded drop dumplings, with ;. i "o." with drap ..." V .1 ciuropnngs, w,io an ;i. iourun?p dumpling n made of corn meal; your drap ?limi|?Iin<r D made of wheat f*r. The one i?: rooked in the li<;"or i' v. iiicli^ a ham is boiled: the'other is < k. d in the pot with a fat hen. Drop dumplings are to be eaten in the season between backbones and sjwy-eribs and hog jowl and turnip greens, whereas drap dumplings come in between the black eyed pea soup of the September and the backbones, spareribs and sausage of the early December, immediately succeeding the glorious Indian summer. Get your hen. and be sure she i* fat, so fat indeed that but two eggs can he coaxed from her from a Sunday to a Sunday. After she is properly dressed separate her corporeal elements until you have breast, hack, neck, legs, wings, head, feet and giblets, including the egg bag. Put this on to 6tew in an iron pot and add some rashers of fat and properly cured bacon. Let it simmer for hours and when about done put in some pods of okra, a spoonful of boiled rice, black and! red pepper and salt to taste. 1 ncn eome your dumplings?the dough left over from the sweet potato pie crust. Drop them in, let it stew till just done and then serve. That is drap dumplings. They are very good, but nothing like as excellent as your drop dumplings, made of cornmeal and cooked in ham liquor. The one is for surly March; the other is for radiant autumn.?Washington Post. National Nicknames. Like individuals, the nations, of the earth have nicknames. The appropriateness of some is quite evident. But to explain the origin of others would be difficult. Englishmen have .submitted to the name of John Bull as suited to the national character. A Scotchman is Sandy. The Irishman gets his nickname, Paddy, from his national patron saint, while an ancient nursery rhyme records the fact that Taffy was a Welshman. In England the Frenchman is sometimes rather contemptuously alluded to as John Crepaud. But in *-* ' t n 1 ?ranee ne is Jacques flonnorame or, as o bourgeois, Monsieur Prudhomine. Cousin Mieliel is the nickname by which the German is known to the continental nations. Mynheer Closh, an abbreviation of Nicholas, is the name applied to Hollanders, and the Switzer rejoices in the name of Colin Tampon.?Boston Post. Jollying tho Parents. "Why did you chuck that baby under the chin?" asked the man. "It is such an ugly little sinner." "That is why I chucked him," said the woman. "I wanted to make his parents feel happy. I always pet the ugly babies. Pretty babies get so much coddling from strangers that their parents take it as a matter of course. It is the fathers and mothers of*homely babies who appreciate attention. Didn't you notice how pleased that couple looked? I don't suppose anybody ever petted that baby before except themselves. They'll think a lot more of the youngster after this."? New York Press. Old papers for sale at this office. wmmmromtiwmmmmnm tree Agents for RANTEEI should be proud.
