When Jenny Liud came to Washington Daniel Webster was, of course, among the audience. He had come in rather late from a champagne party and after each song of Jenny Lind's applauded most vociferously. Finally, rising to the pinnacle of enthusiasm, he stood up In the crowded hall and made one of his most gallant j bows to the great singer.

A Crusher For Conkling. Roseoe Conkling was a capital boxer and quite proud of his skill.

Chandler bided his time and some time later quietly brought a professional pugilist to dinner where Conkling was a guest In the course of the evening "Mr. Smith" was Induced to engage in , a boxing bout with Mr. Conkling. The professional danced around the senator. landing when and where he wished. playing with him as he would with a punching bag. The elegant New York senator was dazed, overwhelmed. 1 humiliated, crushed.

I c - r An Increasingly Popular Magazine. lr The March issue of Lippincott'a a keeps the pace set by recent num- t bers, which have been petting no end of praise. The complete novelette is by Edgar Jepson, whose"Pollyooly and the Lump" has proved so popular. It is "The Changeable \ Professor." and in it are adroitly f commingled both farce and melo- 0 drama, as in one of the big theatri- a cal successes of the present season, j, The Professor is a scientist whose t arduous labors have injured his c health, apparently beyond repair. But he discovers a strange cure for i his malady, and lives to confound p his brother scientists ahd to win the v girl he loves?and she's well worth the winning. Vivisection?or some- t thing aKin to it?plays an important part in the narrative, which "get5! busy" from the start and never is permitted to lag.

Masson; "The Vacant Forty," by Paul Lee Ellerbe; "The Little House" ? by Arnette Thackwell Johnson; "The Strategy of Hezekiah John,"by Clara ?

In the evening I must :et up my stove wood so the rest an do their work and not bother vith the wood, as they have done in n the year that is past. At night I nust prepare my lessons for school, do not want to worry my teacher, lor have to say my lessons over. I im going to try to help others and hey will help in time of trouble. Ellie McElveen. Cades, S C. My motto for making the year 913 the banner year of my life is as ollows: I propose to be a kind and bedient son, an energetic, affectionte and worthy brother, an energet; and obedient pupil. I must at ? I end all religious services i possiDiy an with a desire of deriving all the :ood I can. I further resolve that will be kind and affectionate to my ilaymates and acquaintances and rill try to follow the golden rule, 'do unto others as you would have hem do unto you." I am a pupil of Cades school. Bethea McElveen. I am going to try to spend my lays of the year 1913 in the most iseful way. I shall rise up early evry morning and dress for school, ad then help cook breakfast. When ireakfast is over I will go and do ome of the house work. When I lave time before going to school I i hall study my lessons,so I can recite I hem well. Then I will go to school J md behave the best I can. and try i lot to worry my teacher. I want o be always on time and never be ibsent. When school is over I shall ro home and help my mother until tfter supper and then study all my essons for the next day. When Sunday comes I shall go to reaching, if there is any. and listen o the preacher. I want to go to !iinrLnv-<5f?hnnl in the afternoon and 1 mow my Jesson so I can answer the [uestions that are asked. Maybe by o doing 1913 will do more.for me han 1912 did. Annie Belle Poston, Cades, S C. I want to try to do better than I lid in the past?turn over a new leaf, luitting my bad habits, taking up rood ones and obeying what my parents tell me. Every Sunday 1 am roing to Sunday-school and know ny lesson. I am going to preaching oo and listen to the preacher. I rant to be good in Sunday-school ind church.

When I get out of school must study for the next day, then igain before I go to school. It is our duty to help others and hink about some one else besides lurselves. When you see an> body n trouble help him out and when he s having a hard time give him a lift, hen he will return your kindness, jet us remember this one thought, 'whatever is worth doing at all is vorth doing well." Be sur.- u> care or small things and the big things vill take care of themselves. Herbert Haselden. Cades, S C. The way to spend your days bet Vior> rliH in thp nast. is to CI tuatl J Vtt V4?v? mmm ? g. , orget the days that are gone and mprove the ones that are coming. )o not brood over something you lave done, but correct that fault. Jet up early in the morning and whatever task you have do it well md do it as if you enjoy it. Help ^our mother as much as you can.for ne is your fiieud. iveiieve hei oi ome of her work. Speak a word of cheer to some orc in trouble and say : kind things r.bcut those around you ?leave off the unkind. Study your lessons hard and stand first in your class. Give your teacher as little trouble as you can. Try and make her burden a little easier by obeying her. Do all of your duties well and an easy conscience will be your reward. Master your own habits or else they will master you. It is just as easy for you to possess clean habits as bad ones, so by all means strive for the right kind. Keep your teeth clean, your body and clothing. Touch not strong drinks, nor eat too much. In other words.be temperant in what you do. Be polite to the aged and argue not, for they know best. If you see an old man with a heavy load help him if you can. Do npt think too much of yourself, for egotism has ruined many a man. Think of others and "do unto them as you would have them do unto vou." Try and make yourself a blessing to the world instead of disgracing it. Study your Bible daily, for it is clean and true, and cannot lead you astray. Also study your Sundayschool lesson and have it well prepared. Do not miss Sunday-school and also stay for church, for the preacher has someth ng indeed for you to hear. Not only his message will help you,bLt your oxampleof regular attendance wiil influence others. Now,if I do these things, namely: have clean habits, be considerate of others and keep the s?? hath, surely my days will be well spent, for I will be an honest tlhrMian and this thought will continu; 1 run through my mind: "Anything worth doing at all, is worth doing a ell."

I am going to do as many favors as I can for other people. And try and be on the honor roll every month. Before I go to school 1 go over my lessons once or twice to see if I know them perfectly. Then I brush my teeth for breakfast, so when I get through with breakfast I get ready for school. I want to behave nicely at school, and try and make my teacher think a lot of me. For I am sure I try my best to do jvhat I can to please my teacher and parents. I want to do everything I can to help others to be happy, as well as myself. And I try and go up a grade every year. I study as hard as can and in the afternoon T ?-v ? moll/ a* rrn fr\ nlflv j. gu uul lut a. nam ui w t j with my playmates and friends. Then at night I study my lessons for the next day. I love to go out for a walk in the woods to hunt flowers. I am a pupil in the fifth grade of Indiantown Graded school. Mabel Smith, R 1, Vox, S C. j * 1 think the best way for me to spend the year 1913 i9 to get up early in the morning and help my mother clean up the house, as she is getting old and I am more able to do this. When I have finished my breakfast,then go straight to school, as my mother expects me to do in order not to be late. When wo are out of school I should come home and .study my lessons, so that I would have all ' v?a1 r\ mu rwafv?n?? 01 ine evening tu ucip mjr uivwu> When I have visitors I should play and do as they want me to do, so they will love me better. On Sunday I should go to church and after dinner I should study my Sundayschool lesson and go to Sundayschool. I also think I should not say an ugly word and to be kind to my little brother and big sister. I am a little girl twelve years old. I go to the Salters Graded school. Leila Ferrell, Salters Depot, S C. I am going to do all I can to make everybody happy. I am going to try to be better this year than I did last year and when I go to school I will try to get my playmates to be better too. I am going to Sundayscnool every Sunday; I will try to learn my lessons good. 1 win go to school and study my lessons, and when I come home I will do the house work, then when night comes I will study my lessons for the next i day. I am going to try to obey my parents better, too. I will try to have my lessons perfect and do all I can to please my teacher. I am going to the Hughes school and I am in the fifth grade. 1 am going to pray for my people and strive to do | my best. I will treat my brothers and sisters better, too. Marie Hughes. Venters, S C.
