not neglect the early symptoms.

Mrs. W. N. Jacobs Entertains.
Kingstree. Juue 20:?Mrs W N(
Jacobs entertained delightfully on!
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. Both
couples will reside in Kicgstree as
their home, and to all we extend
congratulations and welcome.?Cor

Laying By.
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.

Convincing the Jury.
"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.'"

Tho Difference Between "Drops" and
"Draps" Explained.
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."?

"Dear sir, gout is not beyona my

It was Kinglake who uttered one
of the neatest of mots on the peculiar
character of the Times. lie had
little fondness for that journal, in
spite of personal friendships which
might have been expected to soften
his views of the question. The paper
was still to him a sort of jug? !
