When Stephen Kllis was elected sher Iff of Indiaiu county the olil jailer, not Miik of his party, had to go. To everybody's surprise the place was given to Uncle Jerry Stills. Uncle Jerry was fifty years old. and his wife, who was always called Aunt Betty, was a couple of years younger. They were nice old people. They were liberal with what they had and knew about as much of the wickedness of the world as two children. The sheriff had lived with them for four or five years when he was a homeless orphan, and he owed a debt of gratitude which he wanted to pay. He knew their soft -t. n'H/in tlior n-oro Pofldu to CpUL5>, anu n uvu uiwj ? v?v >v?*^ take possession of tbe stone jug be said: "Now, listen to me! This is a jail and not an orphan asylum. No one will be sent here who Is Innocent or deserves pity. All prisoners are here because they deserve to be Every last one will lie and play tbe hypocrite and must be carefully watched. There must be no foolishness with them. Uncle Jerry, you mustn't trust one of them as far as you can sling a bull by the tail. 'And, Aunt Betty, you must harden that kind heart of yonra. I know you'd like to adopt every tramp In the state and let him swfhg in a hammock , and have ham and eggs every meal, but it's a different thing haa" The Jail was without a prisoner just then. At length a prisoner arrived to be eased 1or by Uncle Jerry and Aunt Betty. Be bad been tried for grand larceny and given a sentence of six 1 months. Be did not look more than eighteen years old and had a face as Innocent as that of a child. He bad tears in his eyes when he arrived at the jail. -What a shame!" exclaimed Aunt ( Betty after a look at the prisoner. , "He is rather young," replied Uncle Jerry. Aunt Betty sighed and said nothing more. She didn't know whether or not she'd tell the boy she pitied hiin. There was something she did do when she passed in the next meal, and she i couldn't help herself. She looked sorrowful. and she asked the prisoner if he bad a mother. He studied her face 1 for a moment and then answered that he had. At Aunt Betty's next visit to the cell she carried two extra dishes not pro- I vided for by the rates, and when the prisoner had thanked her he timidly asked: "Good woman, dare I ask yon to write to my mother for me 7" "If I write her she'll know yon are In jail, and that will hurt her terribly." "You must tell her, bnt you must tell her that the whole world has been against me. Nobody Is wiBlng to give me a show." "You poor boy!" she pityingly said. "They say I stole a watch from a farmhouse, but I never, never did. A tramp wbo came later took the watch." "And didn't they get him?" "No, and because they didn't they arrested me and sent me here. I was a poor boy, you see. and bad no one to befriend me." "What a shame! What a burning shame! Why, tlte Judge and Jury ought to be here lb your place!" "I want you to write to mother and tell her so. I don't want her to think I've become a wicked boy." Uncle Jerry had M go out on business one afternoon and was not expected home until 0 o'clock in the evening. At 0 o'clock Aunt Betty prepared supper and invited the prisoner to sit at table with her. She reasoned that it would uplift and make a man of him. He ate a full meal, speaking words of gratitude between mouthfuls. and then rose up and took her by the throat and banged her head against the wall and took the prison key off its nail and opened the door to liberty. It was cold weather, but he went without hat or coat It took Aunt Betty about ten minutes to realize what bad happened, and then she ran to the street bareheaded?not to shout for help, however. At a venture she turned to the right and ran for her life down the street and out in the country. Half a mile from the Jail she caught sight of her "poor Innocent boy." So did he of her, and he legged it like a rabbit. Over fences and across fields he led her, but she was a hound on the trail and ran him down at last Then, as soon as she could get her breath, Aunt Betty cuffed and walloped and spanked and pulled hair until that young man cried for mercy. On the way back to Jail he got a cuff about onoe in every twenty feet and' when be found himself once more in bis cell be was a thankful boy, Indeed. "Is everything all right?" asked j Uncle Jerry as be arrived borne. , "Yea, all was the answer. "I found oot about that boy today. Hels a tough one. He baa no mother and has been in jail about ten times. He's a slick thief and the biggest liar J In the United States.

Class Flower: Marechal Neil Rose. Miss Clara Montgomery was a temporary member of our faculty last Friday. She took the place of Miss Gray, our seventh grade teacher, who was standing an examination for a certificate to teach in this State. Miss Gray is a graduate of the Southern Presbyterian College, at Red Springs, N C, and holds a first grade certificate from that institution, but one State does not 4 honor certificates issued in another _ . State. Uur county superintendent reports that Miss Gray's average was one of the highest made that day. Our boys are taking a great interest in foot ball these days. We haye two strong teams, which can be seen at practice every afternoon on the school grounds. The younger boys have just purchased a new ball and are very happy with it. The Wee Nee Literary society held its seqond meeting for the year on Friday, October 3, with Miss Thorn in the chair. After some very nice selections had been read the debate opened, the subject being, Kesoved, That Woman's Surfrage Should be Adopted in South Carolina. After a very interesting debate, strong points being brought out on both sides, it was decided in favor of the affirmative. There were eight present in favor of woman's suffrage out of about fifty. The judges were the two high school teachers.! Misses Cromer and Ada Brockington. We were also glad to have as one, Mr Raymond Holroyd, who was our principal last year. We hope that he will visit our society again.*. We were pleased to have Mr Harold Thompson to become a member of our society. ^ Tbey Make Too Feel Geed. _ The pleasant purgative effect produced by Chamberlain's Tablets and the healthy condition of body and J mind which they create make one < feel joyful.
