claims that he lives like the hares and

'-Each human being/* he contends,

Mr. Aird is an engineer. Formerly
he suffered from very bad health, but

ideal fare. Today, although nearly

of eighteen.
"When; I searched for the means of
" health,'* he says,- "I studied the wild
animals on the Sussex downs. So cer

Sardonic Humor in Tale of How ]
Frenchman "Got Even** With
His Fei Sow-Citizens.
A quaint .-bort story by Rodolphe j
Bringer, a marvel of French hrevity,
appeared not long ago in L'Humamte.
It is called "The Benefactor's Re
venge," and the tale is of a millionaire
in & small town who was piqued be->
cause he was not elected mayor. Pres
ently he -died, partly of annoyance, j
The funeral was magnificent, but the j
townsfolk did not attend. They dis
trusted the millionaire. Imagine the
shock of pleasure, then, when they ;
learned that he had bequeathed 3,000.
000 francs to the municipality! It
was jgiven on condition that the town
>houid ?undertake to nourish and sus
tain all the poor, without distinction
of age, sex or nationality, who lived
within its boundaries. At once the
popularity of the deceased took a tre
mendous iump. A philanthropist; he
had heen misjudged. A pedestal was
v prepared for his statse. Today the
pedestal still remains, uncrowned. \A
town that was hard working and un
known to poverty and misery became
the mecca for all the scamps in France.
Since the day on which the will was
proclaimed tramps, rogues and
apaches have not ceased to pour
through its^ates. At last it awoke to
tbe^ark intention of its benefactor.?

~ The first American novel to win pop

.said to have been James Fenlmore
Cooper's "Spy." Cooper had to publish
It at his own expense, as no American
publisher would accept It. It was
qulckty translated into French, German
and Spanish, and later was published
in thirty-four different places in Eu

better literature than the original, as
the best elements of the story arexnot
lost in translation and many stylistic
defects disappear in the hands of a

Carriage and Wagon Builders Have
About Xa7ven Up;That*Sra?eh ?f
of the Business.
p The members of a firm formerly
prominent in. selling horse-drawn ve
j nicies, oh the"Pacific: coast give .some
interesting figures showing, how the
j carriage-and wagon* builders have lost
i-husiness, due to the inroads of the
' automobile industry in the transporia
,tion field.
I It seems that there were 14,000 bug
' gies sold in Los Angeles county alone
j in 1596, and-6.500 wagons. Two years
j later.the first motorcar appeared and
business thereafter declined steadily,
jit is doubtful if 300 huggies a year
j are sold now in California. Salesmen
working in rural distaricts used to sell
an average of two-buggies a day and
j more sets" of harness. One prominent
j wagon builder sold $S,00$000 worth j
of horse-drawn vehicles in 1896. In j
j 1905 they stopped manufacturing them
r?nd concentrated their production fa
cilities on motorcars, which they had
gradually developed as their wagon
trade -decreased. . -
Not all firms were so far-sighted or
fortunate,- however, and many fac
tories that formerly manufactured
; thousands of horse-drawn, vehicles are
I bat a memoryv Most wagon-builders
; of progressive mind installed motor
| car departments and are now reaping
a harvest as-manufacturers of special
truck and van bodies to be fitted to
standard motorcar truck chassis, work
I for which their mechanical equipment,
i working forces and experience are par
| ticularly well adapted.
! MOTOR FUEL SUPPLY SHORT j
Gasoline Cannot Re Relied On to Fill
Demand?Alcohol the Coming
Power.
i 'Mineral oils vary very much in their
I makeup. Those of Mexico are partkru
| larl^ Tich in the heavier-ingredients,
and are therefore^ excellentry adapted
for use as fuel. The lighter oils yield
i mona kerosene arid gasolinel
.The prospect of gasoline supply of
| fers some .reason for anxiety. It has
been increased enormous! v within the
last ten years, but'the growth of the
output has been only one-third as
great as the growth of the automobile
industry. There are onw 7,500,000 an
tomobiles in the l&ifted States; by the
end of the present year there will be
9,000,000. >
Nothing is more certain than that
; the supply of gasoline will not keep j
pace with the increasing demand.. We j
shall. have to look to coal tar as a
source of motor fuel. Already "ben
zol," a by-product of the distillation of
bituminous coal, is being used for this *
purpose in considerable quantities. An
other fuel available (If carburetors and
cylinders are' redesigned) 4s aTcohol,
which can he obtained in unlimited
quantities from molasses, unmarket
able potatoes, and all sorts of vege
table wastes.
Watching Ltfe of Plants.
From.fuller information, now at
hand in regard .to the machine by aid
of which the Indian scientist, Sir J.
C. Bose, has been making visible In
London the ingrowth of plants, shows
that he does much more than make
visible what everybody already knew?
that plants increase in size. He also
has revealed that the growth of a
I plant is by no means steady o# con
tinnons-^that It is affected by many of
the influences besides mere nutriment
that affect the growth of animals. In
short, this machine, which is calJed a
crescograph and magnifies movement
a million times, proves that plants are
much more alive than it 4s customary
to credit them with being, and it is not
an altogether fanciful notion that
when the facts in relation to plant
life become better known, something
of consideration for their 'feelings"
and something of compunction about
treating them cruelly may develop.
Pharmacy Popular.
j Pharmacy is a popular pursuit
j among the women of South America,
! according to a Y. W. C. A. leader in
I that country, because it Is a protected
j profession and is considered womanly.
J South American girls nave not gone
i into public life and Into the business
i world and the trades as North Ameri
j can girls have and still consider, as a
j rule, omy the so-called protected lines
of work. They teach and sew and a |
few have become typists and stenog
raphers, but most women who take up
any profession train for nursing, medi
cine or pharmacy. Chemistry is also
! a popular study.
Rather Embarrassing.
We had just mbved into a new
house. I was dressing when the bell
rang, and mother went to trie door.
Sure enough It was the young man I
was trying to avoid. But instead of
saying I was not at home, mother
sam": "Oh, let me show you our new
house." Everything was lovely until
approaching the closet, where I was
crouched down on my '?vTes, half
dressed, mother said: **ThIs is where
we keep all. our old junk^ and rub
bish," and opened the door.

rassed I was.-*Exchange.

-Sumter's commercial: secretary, E.

until reinforcements came from lead1
ing Clarendon county citizens who fa

several of whom poured-Some return
I hot shot into the dtfanning speakers.
The fight from then on was a Claren
don county Killkenny ca\ scrap to a
f finish. "Secretary ' Reardon started
[something anyhow,
j .'By invitation. Mr. Reardon address
ed a meetiug. at New. Zion regarding
the annexation of New .'Zion school
district .to Sumter county. Messrs R.
H.- Alderman, W. C. . Davis, W. J.
WJdenian and T. C. Sprott and sev
eral others of th2 "Old -Guard" . of
Clarendon were on hand to defend
their county against the invasion by
Samter's one. little talker.
Secretary Reardon was the first;
speaker. He was fipllowed?. by the four {
gentlemen above'mentioned.. The.gist j
of the arguments of the four Man
ningites was that Davis D. Moise and
E. I. Reardon were professional hot'
air artists and Aim fiammers who were
trying to "put over*' something on,the
voters of PJnewood, Turbeville -and
New Zion- school districts, and the
Voters of those three sections were
warned to watch out -for those two
slick propositions and for the whole
of SSumter county. One of the speak
ers said that Sumter county couldn't
sell .$500.00t? worth of hard surface
bonds for a greater amount than 83
cents OA the -dollar. . He ,was < inter
rupted by Mr. Reardou who said that
the bonds hd.dr'praeticajlly been sold-at
par by telegraphic order from a firm
up north.
Several -leading citizens of New
Zion interrupted the Manning speak
ers with numbers of very embarrass
ing questions . about what has be
come of thousands of dollars worth of
vehicle taxes collected in that county
from some citizens while hundreds of
other citizens paid .no vehicle tax
whatever. ;The Manning gentlemen
could not or would^ho.t answer this
!question, one saying "that,'he' would
swear-he did not know. Then a cross
fire of questions ensued about why
New Zion and TUrbeville had been
neglected for years and allowed to
continue 'With dangerous, and broken
down bri<|ges, the poorest of roads
imaginable, and .why, /now that they
were talking of leaving Clarendon
county the Manning business men and
politicians' were so" awful loving.
These New Zionists were told that
Clarendon was just getting ready to
build a sand-clay road to New Zion
with part of Clarendon's '$400,000
bonds** which one of: the'Manningites
said was better business judgment
than Sumter county showed because
Clarendon county was going to spend
its entire $400,000 building sand-clay
roads, whereas Sumter county was
trying to build hard surface roads
and .wouldn't have sufficient money to
put it oyer.
Mr. Reardon replied to these and
other misrepresentations, and quoted
official statistics, and ..gave authori
ties for his argunfents. He demand
ed proof of the-Manning gentlemen"
as to their statements about hard sur
faced roads costing sixty thousand
dollars, per mile insixteen^ foot, widths
but those gentlemen seemed to be
merely giving their.personal opinions.
The speeches of the Manning citizens
appeared to fall fiat with a majority
j of the New Zionists, who appeared
I very. bitter towards the . Manning of
ficials and the rest of Clarendon be
cause of the neglect of New Zion and
TurbeviIle*sections in road -and bridge
maintenance.
The Manning speakers admitted'
that those two sections hr ' been bad-;
? ly-treated, apologized, _nd <guarau
ted better treatment if the voters will
only waitr unti; Clarendon can "come
across." , . .
Messrs. Henry Johnson. J. M.
Hicks and Rev. W. E, Gibbons of
New-Zion section then took the stand j
and toiid- about how that section had j
been treated by the county commis- |
sioners of Clarendon co?nt5\ They
were vpry'severe in their condemna-'
tion.
?Mr. Reardon invited the Zionists (o
have a delegation .to meet at Turbe
ville on July 7th to disouss voti ng in
toSumter coUnty. He said he would
have a heavy battery and some ma
chine gun talkers from the Game
cock City to match up. Manning's big
guns on that day. It-looks like the;
New Zion people want to leave Clar
endon county, and- that they are very;
much worked up over the miserable
j conditio ns of the roads and bridges
;in thai: part of Clarendon county,
which ?ia.s prevailed for yeaYs. The
crowd was apparently-with the Sum--;
ter secretary, and in favor of annex
ation to Sumter. theyJgave him liberal
[applause, and on his second shot, inj
( reply, they said "go to it, E.- L," thei
^crowd iswith you. old boy.. The Man-^
ning speakers were - applauded but
' were also heavily scored, arid heckled ?
by two or three in the audience with;
embarrasing questions which -they?
could not well answer or had to reply
to by apologizing for ioc?l i^adway
conditions,* and offers of reinedy if]
the New Zionists-will not "vote .out of
i
.Cjfc.rend?n. .One .-of ..the .ManraagUgen--'

and D. D.^ Moise did not compose-the j
entire county "of Snntter, and that if,!
they-did they couldn't huJtd" roads im\
another county with ^Suinter county j
.tax money.. . '
It was a lively meeting, altogether,
but as Mr. Bob Alderman said it was-i
well-worth" having as it created much
interest in public issues, and . wonldJ
eventually result. in .some good for
'New Zioh and for entire Clarendon,
although he had ho idea that New:
Zion would ever vote out of Clarendon
county. - ?
?Messrs. J. M. Hides and -Henry
Johnson of Clarendon were the lead
ers for voting into Sumter county, and
those two gentlemen made mighty
forcible talks showing why this ac
tion should be taken. Thein argu
ments arid facts seemed to ..meet the;
hearty approval'of most of the audi-j
-ence. ' ? . ?? - ? - '
July 7 at Turbeville will be .a big j
day it seems; Sumter will have some
gdbd talkers there, as it looks as!
though Manning officials and- busi- I
hess men are. going Ho fight hard to ;
keep Turbeville and New Zion. from
jeaving Clarendon county.
Mr. Reardon emphasized the fact
that the. : proposition . Of Turbeville,
Pinewood. and New Zion to vote into
Sumter county came from. those sec
tions, that he was there by invitatlor.
to giv? such information, s?. was want
ed, and as best he could. There was
I no desire on Sumter's part to toriun
tarily invade -or to grab off Clarendon
! county's territory, and that ^umter/si
j representatives had never addressed
I 'd Clarendon audience on thesej:three?
j propositions, except ? when invited -io
do so by representatives of these three
sections- Representatives of Pinewood
and Turbeville sections had been to j
Sumter and asked the cooperation Of
'?the -Sumter Chamber of Commerce^
asked for legal advice, ? finahcialjas
sistance, etc. in - these . annexation
I movements, and in regard to Turbe
ville and Pinewood annexation pro
positions, now well -under ? way, the
Sumter Chamber of Commerce had
met the annexationists half way. The
New Zion proposition has not yet
come up before the officers of the
Sumter Chamber of .Commerce, this
meeting, being the opening of the
campaign for New Zion to settle this
question. It is "up to" New Zton to
take action. He however J guaranteed
passable roads for that ssfction which
he felt his own county's board of com
-missiohers will give, if New Zion votes
into Sumter county.
" New Zion, TurbeviHe, and Pine
wood are not asking for hard surfac
ed roads but to get into a county
