Well, I 11 want to tell you that they are going ' to make all the dogs go to work 1 ' building Kchoolhouses for you. Just 1 think of it! Dogs building school L houses! . 1 - Well, as strange as it seems?and f it doca seem strange?they are going to do that very thing. I t have heard of setters and pointers 1 > to hunt birds with, hounds to track ? ! up the foxes, rabbits and deer, and even tbe criminal; the shepherd to * t drive cattle and sheep, the spaniel f to dive in tho water, the mastiff to ^ L guard the home, tho bulldog to ? ) throw down the cow ; yes, and I ' have known of the little fice that 1 | tells which tree the squirrel ran up, * , and I knew that Uncle Sam made the dogs carry the mail in Alaska -over the ice; but, hoys, just think of it?the South Carolina legislature is going to make them build school houses! How is that? you ask. 5 Well, in this way: They arc going ) to put a tax of fifty cents on each 3 dog in the State, and they are going , to take this money?alxmt $75,000 i ?find put it in sch^olhouses for i the lx>ys and girls, and you will - think they need it if you will look > at the Sardis schoolhouse and remember that nearly all of the r schoolhouses in the country are just t as good (or had) as this.

South Carolina. \ Dear Sir^Tho way to reckon the :ost of paintH^b) put both costs toothers : the cosVNvf the paint and lie cost of putting it on. It would save this country hun~ lreds of dollars a year; it would iavc you alone (if you happen to be i victim) several dollars a year. Sec how it works. It costs as nucli to put-on one paint as another, don't it? Yes, if you use the same number >f gallons, Well, don't it? No, you'll use twice as many gallons of adulterated paint as of [)evoe; and you've got to pay twice is much for putting it on. \ Mr. N. Avery, Delhi, N Y, has ( wo houses alike and in same eon- < litoin. Painted one house with i Devoe; 6 gallons. Painted the ( )ther house with a paint that was ] udf adulteration: 12 gallons.

No wonder the poets never J ire singing of spring. Nature , iwakcs from her long slumber. The 1 lowers spring up, the trees begin 1 o bud and the bird tribe begin to j ting a merry song. ' The young nan's fancy lightly turns to ( houghts of love." And why not? ( Everybody should l>e joyous with he happy spring time. We are jelievers in the class of optimists, i The pessimist is a sad dog. Nobody ikes his company. He is to be ihaken off soon as possible. He nay have his mission in the world, nit people do not like to do busiicss with him. We rejoice in the soming of spring and in the love ( nuking and all the rest.

After iv wcelc of the hardest and liost constant fighting, with the greatest loss df life and munitions >f war ever yet recorded in the hisory of modern warfare, the Japs gradually hut surely gained ground ach day, until they finally capurcd Mukden the stronghold the vailed city, and many thousand irisoncrs, provisions, guns, cannon ind ammunition. The Japs oecu>y the city and the main army are 11 full pursuit of Kuropatkin and lis army which is moving north owards Tie Pass. Oyama the field Marshal of the Japanese army had the Russian irmy nearly surrounded and it was mcc thought that lie had their re" reat entirely cut off, but Kuropatcin succeeded in making his escape vith the main liody of his army, rhc loss of Russians is estimated at lf>r> thousand killed and wounded. The Japanese are still in hot permit of the fleeing Russians. Since he capture of Mukden and the repeat of the Russians the Russian jovcrnmcnt is seriously considerng peace proposals. The Czar has ailed his council of war together ind ordered the recall of the Baltic quadron of war ships, which was >nroute to the coast of Korea. Later The council of war are divided in ipinion as to what is best for the Russian government to do. If xace proposals are made by the tussian government now, they fear is a result-the loss of Siberia. The tussian government is confronted vith two serious problems. The var party is large and in its ranks ire nearly all of the upper class ( f {ussiiuis, and they argue that if Russia submit to Japan now it would lot only discredit her abroad, but ;reat discontent at home, which liscontcnt would be fanned into a evolution at home which would be ostcrcd as a protest against a dylasty that could not defend itself igainst a foreign power. Against bis argument to prolong and pursue the war is the condition of her latural finances, the country now Xiing oil the verge, of bankruptcy. mj the Russian government is unlecided and -will not make a hasty lecision unless forced to do so by nore decisive victories of the Japs, md a further retreat of KuropatVery Low Excursion Rates via Southern Railway.
