1<Hiking after next Governor
Jo>i.*<* interest-. Co] Thurmond, a
veteran campaigner himself, has
taken the field in a systematic way
and it is easy to see that he iletting
no grass grow underneath
his pedal appendages. We don't
believe Williamsburg county is
going for Blease if any decent man
opposes him, and that Former
Chief Justice Jones is a decent
man g?H's without saying.
State-Wide Prohibition Oeieated
For the second time in its long
and honorable history the Senate of
Virginia was called upon last Saturday
to pass upon the wisdom and
constutionality of submitting to a
popular referendum the question of
State-wide prohibition, and for the
second time, speaking through the
majority, it answered, "No." Like
the negative that fell to the lot of
the Strode bill in 1910, the one Saturday
was in no uncertain terms.
Of the thirty-eight Senators voting,
twenty-three went on record as opposing
the Jordan bill, which had
passed the lower house by a vote of
80 to 30, while fifteen registered
their votes in favor ot its enactment
into law.
This action by the Senate has settled
a much agitated and bitterly
fought question in the Old Dominion
for the next two years atleast,probably
four, as the members of the
present State Senate were elected
!ast fall for a term of four years.

up in 1914-16 it will most likely
meet a similar fate.
Abel ula Piang, prince of the house
of Piang of the Moro districts in the
Philippines, is touring America. The
last injunction of his father before

wives as he could.
Many sufferers from rheumatism

Dispensary lor La2<e City.
The Florence county dispensar\
board, met Tuesday night ami decided
to establish a dispensary at
I>ake City, which will be opened as
soon as stock can be secured. The
advocates for a dispensary asserted
that "blind tigers" now flourish in
the town and that a dispensary will
tend to suppress them, it was also
argued that men unable to get liquor
were drinking more harmful
.things, and that the community deI
sired the profits arising from a dis
pensary.
Dr W S Stokes and Rev C C Derrick
headed a protesting committee
of nine, but the board decided that
as a majority of the Lake City people
had petitioned for a dispensary,
it would be unreasonable to refuse
them.
In the Fashion.
The wearied searcher for apartments
In New York bad ended his limit.
When be announced the resuli to a
friend he delivered himself of this
epigram:
"There are Just two kinds of apartments
in New York, those you can't
afford to live in and those you
wouldn't live in anyhow."
"What did you do?" asked the friend, j
1 "Oh " said the searcher's wife, "we j
followed New York fashion and took ;
one we couldn't afford tc live in."?

A fcentleman asked Mary, an only
child, how many sisters she had and |

Her mother asked Mary when they j

The Veil of the Future.
In the Chicago schools a boy refused
to sew. thinking it below the
dignity of a man of ten years.
"Why." said the teacher, "George
Washington did his own sewing in the j
wars, and do you think you are better ;
than George Washington?"
"I don't know." replied the boy seri
ously. "Only time can tell that"?Ladies'
Home Journal.
Not Polite.
The family bad never been in the ;
habit of saying grace, but when the !
minister took tea with them they !
thought it proper to bend their heads i
over tbeir plates devoutly.
All would have pone well if the
young hopeful had not piped up:
"It ain't iK)lite to smell yer meat!"?

Obtaining Heirs In China.
The practical Chinese have adopted
a simple way of obtaining heirs where
there are no legal ones?the adoption
of children who belong to side branches
of the family. In this way the family
line is kept Intact In the absence of
male descendants in the side branches
of the family the sons of strangers are
adopted. The Chinese prefer this method
to marrying second wives.
Men With Memories.
Seneca the Wise could repeat 2,000
words in the uninterrupted succession
In which they were read to him. The
greatest Roman orator before Cicero.
Hortensius, could recite all the prices
give.i at a public auction. Themistocles.
who considered it a greater art to forget
than to remember, learned the Persian
language inside of a year.
Licorice.
Licorice was once highly esteemed
medicinally, and Its cultivation in England
began early in the reign of Queen
Elizabeth, it was inougnt a duycici^u
remedy for coughs and at one time wag
a very profitable crop. Its name comes
from two Greek words signifying
"sweet root." The root was first Imported
from Spain.
