LaUoop. Chewing Gum. A. Wrrfcspondent inquires whether the *nre of'che?t7?Dg gam is really beneficial, as pome persons have asserted. The opinion has ooe plausible argu? ment io 'its %ror. T&e saliva is ac important digestive finid. On it de? pends the digestion of ail starchy sub? stances-bread, mush, potatoes and the like. $t is for this reason that thor - TJtgti mastication of such foods is nee <essary in order that the saliva may be daly mixed with their particles. For the same reason it is better to eat bread dry than to moisten it, and dry bread is practically easier of digestion than moah, which is often swollowed with? out sufficient mastication. Now, as the saliva is copiously se? creted in gam-chewing, it might be thought that the stomach would thus be aided in the digestion of starchy food ; but just here comes in another physical fact, namely, that saliva loses its diges? tive power very soon after entering the stomach, being neutralized by the ac? tion of the gastric juice. 1. The habit is unnatural. It meets no normal need, as does the chewing of the end by the cow and some other ani? mais. Whatever is abnormal is pre? sumptively injurious, even though we may not be able to trace its effects. It took a long time to find out that tobacco ?hewing caused one of the most fatal diseases of the heart. 2. Every secretion of the body has its natural limitation. Artificial stimu? lation greatly beyond this point must be hurtful. This is a general law. Gum chewing stimulates the salivary glands vastly beyond tho normal limit, and the result must be injurious. 3. The constant swallowing of saliva in a sort of churned state carries into the stomach a large amount of air, which becomes a source of discomfort aod often of positive injary. It mnst be remembered that air swallowed in this way becomes greatly expanded by internal heat. 4. Muscles are enlarged by use. Witness the blacksmith's arm as com? pared with that of the scholar. Wit? ness also the enormous muscles of the athlete. Now the normal cse of the masseter muscles tends only to keep them in proper working condition ; but their overwork io gnm-cbewing mast tend to their undae enlargement and thus to the diffigaration of the face. Youth's Companion. Dr. Griffin Going to Darling? ton. The many friends of Dr. P. E. Grif? fin will be pleased to ' learo that he has definitely decided to locate in Darling? ton. Since the severance of bis con? nection with the Asylum, the doctor bas been in New York city, where he has been taking a speeeial coarse of stody in order that be might acquaint himself with the very latest ideas in his progressive profession. He will re tarn to the Sooth about the 20th of the present month, when, accompanied by bis family, he will take np bis residence in Darlington. As one of the most distinguished physicians in the South, and as one who was born and raised in Darlington County, where the peo? ple know him and love bim. Dr Grif? fin will soon be in possession of a lucra? tive practice in thia section of the State. -Darlington Neics. Few people could, guessing ot? hand ed, come within many million dollars of the amount paid oat io pensions by the National Government since July 1. 1861. The figures were, a few days ago, made up at the pension office, and here is the total footing : $1,284,716, 000. Just think, one billion, two hundred and eighty four million, seven ard sixteen thousand dollars. If this rjoney was all in fifty dollar bills the average man's life would not be long enough to count it, not even if it ware possible for him to work continuously at the task._ Col. R. W. Simpson, Executor of the estate of the late Thomas G. CleXBsoo, made final settlement of all matters per? taining to the estate before Probate Judge Lewis on the 14th instant and procured bis discharge. Col. Simpson*| aod Attorney, Capt. G Qt. We>Ug?] of Greenville, pp** nt Tuesday nigh^nr* Walhalla-Emcee Courier. A Bride's First Lesson. A bride's first lesson is to respect the extreme sensitiveness of ber husband, who doesn't want people to know be bas jost been married. Consequently she will be wise if on her first journey she assumes a gown that has seen wear ; if she will forget to fool around in a star? tled manner whenever her husband is gone from her side, as it is not likely that he is either goiog to be 3ost or stolen. The next thing is not to kiss bim or bold bis hand in public, or call him "darling." Any womao can make a man feel her love without making him ridiculous. Aoother thing for her to learn is, when she is at a hotel, not to grow ooo? fidentiai with the chambermaid, not to give her a piece of weddiog cake and tell her all about tbe marriage ceremo? ny, and tell ber bow she looked. You thiuk this is never done ? Ask at some large hotel. And she shouldn't giggle or look surprised when she gets a letter from her mother addressed to her in her married name. Men are particularly sensitive creatures about some things, and they are rather given to think a womao don't want a name when she acts in this way.-Ladies1 Horne Journal. G?nois, Capital and Labor. The poet Tennyson can take a worth? less sheet of paper and by writing a poem on it make it worth sixty five thousand dollars. That's genius. Vanderbilt can write a few words on a sheet of paper and make it worth five million dollars. That's oapital. The United States oan take an ounce and a quarter of gold and stamp upon it an "eagle bird" and make it worth twenty dollars. That's money. The mach un ic can take the material worth five dollars and make it into a watch wortb one hundred dollars. That's skill. A lady can purchase a very comforta? ble bouoet for three dollars and seventy fi v? cents, but she prefers one that costs twenty-seven dollars. That's foolish? ness. The merchants can take an article Worth seventy five cents and sell it for one dolllar. That's business. The ditch digger works ten hours a day and shovels three-or four tons of earth for four dollars. That's labor. The editor of this paper might write a check for eight million dollars, bnt it would not be wortb a nickle. That's rough.-Exchange. An Overdose. The uncertain condition of legislation in South Carolina relative to railroads is having the effect that might easily be anticipated. It is precisely tbe effect it bas bad in other States under similar circumstances. Railroad syndicates have concluded that they have all the railroads under construction now io South Carolina that they desire "as the uncertainty about legislation will not encourage new construction in this State for some time." That is un? fortunate for thus far that State is about at the top for 1891, in building new roads. The Richmond and Danville system is equally emphatic. It says : ' 'The outlook in the State of South Carolina is now such that it is really impossible to get the Richmond and Danville people to even consider the question of extending their mileage be? yond the borders of the State,'' There is a lesson in this that ought not to be lost upon reflecting people. Wilmington Messenger. -M?-mmm Heading Newspapers. The following, clipped from the Orangeburg Enterprise and Monitor, is as true as preaebing: In my meanderings along the high? ways and by ways of our county, I find to my surprise some household:* with? out a newspaper. What a lamentable fact indeed! A home without a paper is a veritable solitude; a plaoe unknown to geologist and tradition, where the mocking bird refuses to sing and tbe cherry notes of the nightingale are not beard. 1 have found it to be the uni? versal fact, without exception, that those scholars of both sexes, and all ages, who have bad access to newspa? pers at borne, when compared to those who have not, are better readers, ex? celling in pronunciation, and conse? quently read more Understandingly. They are better spellers, and define words with ease and accuracy. They obtain a practical knowledge of geogra? phy in almost half the time it requires others, as the newspaper bas made them familiar with the location of the most important places, nations, their govern? ments and doiugs on the globe. They are better grammarians; for, having be? come so familiar with every variety in the newspaper, from the commonplace advertisement to the finished and classi? cal oration of the statesman, they more readily comprehend the meaning of the text, aod consequently analyze its con? struction with accuracy. mm .?++-?-^mmm Silk Culture. Mrs. Z. P. Moses, of Sumter, has sent The News and Courier several beautiful samples of silk raised by ber at her home in Sumter. This silk is the product of the eighth year's crop and is as fine a sp?cimen as can be found anywhere. In a note to the News and Courier Mrs. Moses says that she bas raised a quantity of silk cocoons for market, and has enough to produce 120,000 silk worms next spring. The breed raised is of a rich yellow color known as ' Marches.'* She says that the climate of this State is admira? ble for silk culture, all the conditions being favorable to the growth of the trees needed by the worms. The soason just ended.has been a short but very successful one.-News and Courier.

The Washington Chronicle gives the gist of our patent ??ws in the fewest pos? sible words as follows: A United States patent will be grant? ed to any person who has invented or discovered any new and useful art, ma? chine, manufacture, or improvement thereof, not known or nsed by others in th is conn try, and not patented or de? scribed in any printed publication in this or any other country, before his discovery or invention thereof, and in public use nor on sale for more than two years prior to his application, I unless the same is proved to have been abandoned. j In this connection the word "art" j means the process or method of produe I ing an old or new result. If a method ! of doing anything contains one or more i new steps, the process is new and pat j entable. The word "machine" means any ! device or thing by means of which a I meobancal result may be produced, such as a pin, a churn, or a locomotive. The word "manufacture" means a made-up artiole, such as furniture, clothing, harnees, and the thousands of things which are offered for sale. ''Composition of matter" means a chemical compound of ingredients, such as hard rubber, liquid glue, medicine, etc Patents may be obtained for designs for manufactures and works of art, for three, seven, and ten years. Trade-marks may be registered for any arbitrary sign or symbol whioh is not descriptive; the government fee is $25. Such marks are the exclusive property of the registrar for thirty years, and the time may be extended. A "label" is any descriptive tag. print, or impression to be placed upon any article or its case, and it may be registered for twenty-eight years. The government fee for a 'Maher' is $6; but if it contains any special mark or sym? bol, the office decides it to be a "trade mark" instead of a label. - immt ? ? - What is sanitary science about which so much is written ? It is a sci? ence that deals with the earth around you, with your homes, your safety, your happiness, your very life. The Sanita? ry News says this, and we commend it to all thoughtful, considerate readers. "We can live on the earth or under the heavens without knowing muob about them, but to live best in our homes we must know them well. Geol? ogy cannot change the conditions of the earth beneath us, astronomy those of the heavens above us, but sanitary science can change from unhealthy to healthy the condition of the homes we live in. Is it not then a science worthy of study ? It touches the highest inter? est of mankind, cleanses and purifies the present generation, and will strengthen and wilt glorify posterity. The effects of obedience to its laws are not remote but immediate. They touch the everyday life of all and enter into all the relations of life." The simple !aws of health neglected is just what oauses so much disease, so much suffering, so great mortality. mum ?????- Mum Mrs Jefferson Davis has decided that Richmond shall be the last resting place of the remains of her illustrious husband.
