SEABOARD HOLDS OPTION V. 1 v On Stock in Andrews-Charles- i ton Railroad. That the Seaboard Air Line Railway has an option on the stock of the North & South Carolina railway, running irom Hamlet to Mullins and thence to Andrews, is the statement contained in a letter from President W J Harahan of the Seaboard to Chairman Richards of the Railroad Commission and made public recently. A link is now being built from Charleston to Andrews connecting with the North & South Carolina, thus putting the Seaboard direct in to Charleston. The Seaboard denies ownership of the Georgetown and Western railway, running from Georgetown to Lanes, but admits ownership of the Raleigh & Charleston, running from Lumberton, N C, to Marion in this State, and on which the commission tonight ordered the Seaboard to put continuous mileage. Referring to the North & South Carolina Railway, which will be a part of the Seaboard system, it is believed, into Charleston, Mr Hara han says: "This company has an option on the stock of that company, but has not exercised it. It has a traffic contract with it and has aided it in placing securities, but does not own it."?Charlotte Obtercer. "Boots." y Without any knowledge of the warfare being fought in behalf^ of himself and his friends, an amiable young bull-dog, answering to the name of "Boots," has just laid down x his life, though not in the interest of science. Indeed, it is to be feared that he knew little or nothing about the immense blessings that have accrued to mankind through hanging dogs up by their hind legs, and then making inquisitorial explorations of their innards. But "Boots" did know his little mistress?and I * I loved her, too. And when a big Colorado rattlesnake sprang at the five-year-old child, "Boots" didn't have time to think, so he just leaped between the reptile and the little one, and took what was coming. As to the outcome?well, the snake was soon dead. Then "Boots" smiled a few happy smiles, began to feel sort o' di^zy like, smiled a few more times the best he knew how, and passed in his chips. In good old Colorado style, "He done his d?dest"?the angels in Heaven can't do more."? Washington Post. Called Home. A noted clergyman whose pastorate is in a well-known city was spending a few days at the summer hnmp of one of his congregation. ! While seated on the piazza one afternoon with his hostess, her little boy and girl came running toward them; the former with a rat, held at arm's length by the tail. "Don't be afraid, mother," he called. It is quite dead! We beat him and beat him!" each declaration being illustrated by an imaginary blow on the rat. Then.feeling a deference might be due the clergyman, he said, in measured, solemn tones and with uplifted eyes, "Yes, we x beat him and beat him until?God? called ?him ? home." ? Harper's Magazine.

After that, nothing seemed to do me any good. I had gotten so weak I could not stand, [ and 1 gave up in despair.

Here is a list of the "don'ts" which the doctors say will prevent the annual visitation of the cold: I "Don't sit in a draughty car." "Don't sleep in hot rooms." "Don't avoid the fresh air." "Don't stuff yourself at meal time. Over-eating reduces your resistance." To which we would add?when you take cold get rid of it as quickly as possible.
