Mr Daniel McElveen spent the week-end with relatives at Trio. Messrs Ira and David Epps visited friends at Lake City Sunday. Dr Garland McElveep Jof Lake City Ispent Saturday and Sunday with relatives here. We are {sorry to hear that^Miss Ruth McElve'en is on the sick list this week. Messrs J V Burgess and T W 1 Webber went to town Saturday afternoon on Business. Mouzons and Hebron baseball teams crossed bats Saturday afternoon. The score stood 13 to 2 in fa vor of the Mouzon boys. Messrs Robbie and Bart Burgess went to town Friday afternoon. Messrs W K Mcintosh, David Epps and Hay Harrington of Kingstree attended the ball game Saturday. We expect to have the Spring Gully ball team with us Saturday to play two games. The good ladies intend giving them a picnic. Mr R S Burgess will leave this afternoon for Lake City, where he will attend the Eaddy-Epps wedding tomorrow. Nearly all the boys of our vicinity are trying to change their looks for the worst by "clipping" and "shaving" their hair this summer. Mr and Mrs W H McElveen visited the former's brother,Mr R E McElveen, in the Hebron section, Sunday. Some of the boys seem very "blue" since all the teachers have gone home. It's hard, boys, but "absence makes the heart grow fonder." Daisy. MAY PROVE FATAL When Will Kingstree People Learn the Importance of It? Backache is only a simple thing at first; But if you find 'tis from the kidneys; That serious kidney troubles may follow; That dropsy or Bright's disease may be the fatal end, You will be glad to know the following experience. 'Tis the statement of a Kingstree citizen. Mrs S H DuBose, Kingstree, says: "A spell of grippe weakened my kidneys, and my back began to ache terribly. I could hardly turn over in bed, 1 was so sore and lame. I tired easily and could hardly do my housework. I suffered from dizzy spells and the kidney secretions being irregular in passage, annoyed me considerably. When I heard about Doan's Kidney Pills I got some at the Scott Drug Co. Two boxes cured me." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mr3 DuBose had. Foster-Milburn Co, Props, Buffalo, N Y. The man who knows he isn't a man is more of a man than the man who prates that he is a mam WHYSHOULD WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE FROM THK VIEWPOINT OF LEADING FARMER8. Why should women vote? That It the question that is ringing from ocean to ocean and reverberating from the Canadian boundary to the Mexican border. It is the mission of a newpaper to give the news and the action of the Texas Farmers' Union in opposing woman's suffrage when that question was recently before the Texas legislature is significant as representing the attitude of the organized plowmen. We reproduce in part the argument presented by Hon, W. D. Lewis, president of the Texas Farmers' Union, in opposing the bill: "It is gratifying to note that it la not the farmer's wife who Is clamoring tnr ?ha hnllrtt Sho Ifl too bUSV trying to make happier homes, molding the minds of future citizens and sharing with her husband the cares of life to indulge in political gossip. The ballot will give her no relief from; drudgery, give no assistance in clothing the children or bring to the homo additional comforts, conveniences or opportunities in life. It is, as a rule, the city woman promoted to idleness by prosperity, who is leading the suffragette movement. "From many standpoints, perhaps a woman has as much right to vote as a man. So has she as much right to plow as a man; she has as much right to work in a factory as a man; she has as much right to shoulder a musket as a man, but we would rather she would not do so from choice anci we regret that necessity ofttimes compels her to earn a living by en- , gaging in gainful occupations. We do not consider misfortune a qualifiiation for suffrage or a business accident a reason for granting franchise. We are opposed to woman at the ballot box the same as we are opposed to woman in the field, in the factory or in the army and for the, , self-same reasons. We had rather see her plant flowers than sow wheat; gather bouquets than pick cotton and rear children than raise political issues, although she may have as much, right to do one as the other. Opposed to Unsexirvg Humanity. ;. J "Sex qualification for suffrage may have its apparent inconsistencies. No general rule adjusts itself perfectly * to all conditions. It Is a favorite ar-! - - ? . gqment advanced by tne proponents or woman's suffrage that many cultivated and noble women are far more capable of intelligently exercising sovereignty than a worthless negro, but the South never was anxious fori negro suffrage, and while culture and. refinement, and even morality, are desirable virtues, they are not the only qualifications for franchise. "The primary, inherent and inseih arable fitness for suffrage Is supporting a family. The plow handle, the forge and the struggle for bread af-} ford experience necessary to properly mark the ballot. Oovernment is & great big business and civilization from the very beginning assigned woman the home and man the business affairs of life. "There has been much freakish legislation enacted during the past decade that no doubt appeals to woman'flj love for the ridiculous, but to undertake to unsex the human race by law; is the height of legislative folly and a tragedy to mankind. "We are opposed to the equal rights of woman?we want her to ever re-j main our superior. We consider woman's desire to seek man's level the yellow peril of Twentieth Century civilization. "Woman is the medium through^ which angels whisper their messages to mankind; it is her hand that plants thoughts in the intellectual vineyard;; It Is through her heart that hope, love and sympathy overflow and bless mankind. Christ?the liberator of woman* Idnd?was satisfied to teach the lesson* of life and He was a man. He chose, to rule over human hearts and refused worldly power and men followed after Him, women washed His feet, little children climbed upon His knees and the Ruler of the universe sald^ that in Him He was well pleased.] Can woman find a higher calling?" i THEMISTOCLES When Themlstocles was asked by his host at a dinner party to enter* tain the guests by playing the lute, he, replied that he could not play the] fiddle, but that he could make a small, town a great city. We have in this, nation many politicians who are good, "fiddlers," but they cannot make a! small town a great city. We are overrun with orators who can play upon] the passions of tho people, but they* can't put b*1ck and mortar together.^ '< We need builders. Let those who hunger and thirst for( * nntt'op iinriarctflnri that thfl hlfirhest: glory of & statesman Is to construct^ and that It Is better for a man that he' should build a public highway than} that he should become Governor of a' state, and that he start a plow than that he become the author of & law. The true test of statesmanship Is the; plow and the hammer, so let those who would govern, first build. j j i ^
