If the men will only do their duty there will-be no complaint of the girls. They are ali .right, and far too good for the men wbo are afraid to marry.

Eor the .benefit of all whom it may concern, I will give my recent expe^ , T?enc? with hog cholera, how I got th? remedy, the circumstances con nected with it and the result of treat . ment. About.the first of last Novem : i>& my hogs were dying ' daily with cholera? In fact, up to that, time 1 had lost every oue of my yoang pigs and nearly all of my younger hogs. _ I bad my meat bogs shut up and sep '? -arated eutirely from those that were infected with the disease, but very -soon those commenced to get sick and . die, not one that was taken sick recover ing, but dying in the short space of ten hours. While all this destruction was going on, I received my Novem ber number of the Southern Cultiva tor, and in searching through its col umns I came upon the following cure ?br hog cholera : *The Dawson, Geor Journal states that Mr. Bob Mur ray, one of the most reliable planters of Calhoun county, told of a sure cure for hog cholera that be was using. Several years ago Mr. Murray's hogs were- dying in large numbers with -cholera, and her -checked its ravages by mixing with their food a moderate quantity of soda. A few days ago cholera again attacked his hogs, and lie lost twelve in one * /. l?e at once began giving soda and he has not had a hog to die since.' - .While reading the above in the 5 Cultivator, my wife came in and told Ine that two more of my large meat hogs had just died and three more were sick, in less than fifteen min utes after receiving this information my hogs were eating ground food with a liberal quantity of soda and salt mixed together. The three sick hogs just mentioned were not s? bad but that they ate some and got well. For ten days following I gave all my hogs a liberal quantity of the mixture, at first twice a day ; I have contin ued to give it occasionally up to this time, and now ? am able to state, with pleasure, that I have not had a sick hog on my place since giving them the fiist dose of soda and salt mixture ; now over two months ago. I will further state that having been so fortunate as to see this cholera cure in the Soulhern CuUicator and having tested its virtue fully, I do not hesitate to say that I consider it worth more to me than twenty times the subscription price that I paid for jrour excellent farm journal. W. K. Crosswell. Manv?llc, S. C. Albert Gaerry Has a Suit. Albert Gaerry. who lived in Samter for some time and who is well known to many of our citizen?, is about to get into a lawsuit in Washington. The JJatchct says aboat this affair: "In Belfs studio, on Pennsylvania stesse, there is an artistic life-size por trait of the first lady of the land. It is . the ereatioa ot* Albert Guerry, the fa mose ?albero artist. Experts say it is a per?eeT?ikeoess of Mrs. Cleveland in face, form xsd feature. Mr. Guerry, although impecunious, is a most remark able artUt. He has painted portraits of Caihouo, Hampton, Hartranft and other profitent figures in American politics. There is a squabble between Bell, in whose studio the portrait was painted, and Gaerry, the artist. Bell claims that the picture w-is painted under his super vision, and that he, perforce, is the first owner. * Guierry^^^^4'e^in.<1 ter claim that lie, oe?tig",we"?t??s?^nt?t.j of necessity h-ave a- Jar^ ^o^ioiTof [in terest in the portrait of Mrs; Cleveland.

Judge .Ma?key isajfs "Guerry is the -legal owner, of. .the pic-; tore, and we will serve a writ of reple on Bell to* recover it." This is an interesting .case and ,the result of the suit will be auxiously watched. First Love.

' as used in modem politics, is attributed to ?Job Sherman.J While' ^Secretary of ?th??'; 3>easu7j0t? visited his home at Mansfield and was, followed by a host ?f correspondents^ one of whom boldly asked the Secretary - what he was do?og-in Mansfield.-, It happened - that on that day Sherman had contracted with, a roan to repair some fences his"pifoces; so" he told the reporter that he had come to Mansfield to Took after his fences.

I THEIR PLANS AND METHODS. The aitnjof true.statesmamship and civ.Hi?a-;; tionris to secure tr*T happiness of -the people.; Nothing contributes so much to that end as the^ certainty that our dependent family^ after oar death, will be beyond actual want. It has been a problem heretofore^ bow to secure psiich a competency., and this has been-" true especially with that class who are unable by reason of their restricted income,' to- accumu late sufficient .to make, a safe provision for their families. This problem has been solved, by the Knights of Honor. Every moral citi zen who is in/good health may ^nter the order, and no<matferTiow4?m-tted?h? resour ces, may provide from one to two thousand dollars for ???s familyinLcaseioftjs de?th:'.*t The Knights.of Donor is^rictjy a fraternal order and not'a Life ^InsuraOce-Cornpany or Association. T?ieif ?hbdidiffer from old line Life Insurance as well >as from so. - called Assessment Companies. Uniting in its plans and system all the features of such orders as the Masons, Odd Fellows; Knights of Pythias and -the like, it .has added.a protective feature of -a. ^w$.-or pn??ttous?n<??do^?i4 benefit, which is. paid on the death, pi "every member in good ; standing. tOTisUcb members -of^bis fatnily-or depeode^v'ae lie .may have-desig nated by name, according, to the laws of the order. While it is* a secret society, the secret J part only consists of some pass words and ! signs, to enable them to guard against impos-1 tors. - - No oath is administered to initiates only a promise upon honor is exacted to live the life of a good citizen..,. NeHbertis it a reli gious* or-political society ;? bota subjects are carefully kept out of the lodge room. Jew or Geatile, Catholic or Protestant are' alike re spected and made.welcome. - Tbe most devoted ? churchman will find nothing in-ttrcoiiposi tiou to ' the" strictest 'loyalty to his creed ; it "is"also' patterned after'our own dem ocratic institutions ; .every member has a voice in its management, and is eligible to every office. Every member is compelled to belong to some subordinate lodge, rand while bis presence at its meetings is desirable and most beneficial to himself and to the order, yet no law exists to compel him to attend. Each lodge is eotitled to representation in the Grand Lodge of its State, ?nd each Grand Lodge hits from two to more Representatives in the Supreme Lodge. In short, the representatives of the su bordinate lodge form the Grand Lodge, and the representatives of the Grand Lodge con-. stitute the Supreme Lodge. These vnrious bodies make the laws of the order and shape,] its policy ; the machinery 4s so nicely adjust ed that the voice of every , member, through its representative is potent ic shaping whole some and just legislation. There is no preferred class, no close Bo?rd of Director?, nor any chance for peculation or rascality ; the officers of the vai tous lodges, subordinate, grand or supreme, are but the instruments to do the will of tbe members; their duties are clearly defined and their oowers, so called, strictly limited. No money can be expended except its pay ment is voted by a majority of the members, ?od in the Supreme Lodge as well as the Gi'and Lodges it must first have been author ized by a vote of these bodies, and each item must receive the sanction of the Finance Com mittee. The Supreme Treasurer is ander heavy bonds. The money of the order must be and is deposited to the credit of the Supreme Lodge in solvent banks and can only be drawn on tbe joint order of the Supreme Re porter and Treasurer, and the bank is required to make daily reports of receipts and dis bursements to the Supreme Dic'ator, who is the president of the order. The Finance Committee baa the right at any time to ex amine the books, and is compelled to do so at stated periods. Whenever a call is made upon members to contribute to th? widow and orphans' fund, a full statement is made how the money therefor collected ha3 tieen expended, and this is sent to every lodge and read out in open session. The, money to pay death benefits is contributed by the members to the Supreme L^dge. contribution of a fraction over a cent raises a find lar^e enough to pay a benefit of Two Thousand dollars; but these assessments are rande i:i ij.stailments of one or two dollars at -.t time, in order to save expense, and an asses?:nerit of two dol lars upon each member realizes enough to pay the death benefit to 140 deceased mem bers. What able bodied man is there in ihe land who is not able, by a payment of from one or two dollars a month to secure to his family from one to two thousand dollars ? The death benefits are paid to those entitled, in from fifteen to thirty day? after the death i is reported to the Supreme Lod^a. Snmter Lodge No. 1077 K. of H. is located in our town. Bro. P. P.
