In 1905 he was elected circuit nudge of his
Did circuit, when, a vacancy occurring on the
jench of the state supreme court by the re.
signatIOn OF Chief Justice Scatcs, Judge
reese was elected to FIJI the vacancy in No.
'cmbcr 1857. This term expired in June,
SCI, at which time he was elected for nine
ears without opposition. In June, 1870, he
vas re elected without opposition and is now
icrving out II third term. During these peri.
IDS he was twice chief justice, and such is
he vigOr OF his mind and body that he WAS
ully able to do all the work falling TO him,
md is never behind IN the discharge OF his
,nerous and important duties. Though at an
.dyanced age, such is the soundness OF his
constitution and so temperate his habits in
III respects that he is able TO perform as
much labor as his JURORS.
Such Is, briefly, synopsis OF the multitu-
lnous work OF this extraordinary man An
extraordinary man he is. without doubt,
whether considered as q publicist, jurist or
tatesman. His person is compact and ro
und-his presence at once commanding and
attractive. There is scarcely a man living
Who has more benetcially served the state
snd nation, and none Lying or dead, who has
better deserved honor from the people. Your
correspondent is pleased to notice that his
lame has already been sought as candidate
or the presidency of these United States. 1t
very meet and right that such action should
De taken. We notice numerous instances in
which he is thus approvingy spoken of, and
AVE not seen single dissent expressed. A
nan who has done so much tor the public
Welfare, and is fully competent in mind,
leart and body to do so much more, will not
nc overlooked in the list of candidates for
hat exalted position.
The national democratic convention in SC.
Getting nominee will, your correspondent
cells assured, take care that shall be able to
larry his own state. We venture the prcdic-
lou that, of all the persons named for the
presidency, not one, excepting Sidney Brcesc,
Sll be able to get the entire vote Of his own
tate Judge Brecsc Will receive its twenty
one votes Surely that will be good foun
!a,iOn on which to build.

TAKING A SITUATION.

"Well, girls" said my Uncle Barnabas, land
now VIVA. do you propose to do about it,
We sat around the fire in a disconsOlatc
semi-circlc that dreary, drizzling May night,
when the rain battered against the window
panes and the poor little datfodils in the boz.
ders shoOK and shivcred as If they would fem
hide their golden heads once more in the
mother-soil My mother, Eleanor and l. The
first, pale and pretty, and s!lvcr.haircd, with
the widows cap and her dress OF black bonn
baZine and Grape; the sweetest looking old
lady tha' | ever saw Eleanor sat beside her
looking, as she always did, hike a princess
with large dark eyes, Diana.lik0 features, and
hair twisted in coronal her around quecnly
head. While /, plain, homespun susanna
commonly called, "for short" Susy-crouch
ed upon footstool In the corner my elbows
on my knees aud my chin In my hands.
Uncle Barnabas Berkelin sat in the mid
Ole Of the circle, erect, stiff and rather grim
He was stout and short, and with grizzlcd
mustache, little round bald spot on the
crown Of his head, and two glitterlng black
eyes that were always sending their dusky
lightning IN the direction least expected
Uncle Barnabas was wise IN the ways of the
world, and We were inexperienced Uncle
Barnabas was prosperous in all he did, while
If there was 4 bad bargain 10 be made We
were pretty sure TO be the ones to make il
Consequently, and as a matter of course, ",
looked I'D TO Uncle Barnabas and reverence e
has opinions.
"What do you propose 10 do about it's
Eleanor slowly repeated, lifting her beautiful
jetty brsws.
AYES, that's exactly it." said my. mother
nervously; because, Brother Bsrnabas, We
don't pretend to be business women, and IL!
certain We can't live comfortably on our pres
Ell income. Something has got 10 be done ,

"Oh, Uncle cried !, Eleanor would have
been so glad 10 come ii she had known II,
"Fiddlestrugs and little fifhes!' illogical
" responded my uncle, 1--WE no patience
with a girl that's too fine for work. Eleanor
had the situation offered her and she chose
to decline You decided to come, ana here
you stay. RING the bell, Pruc, ana orueT tea
for I'm az hungry as hunger, and dare say
little Susy here would relish cup OF gooo
tea
And this is the way driitcd into my lex
urious home. Eleanor, IN the country cot
tagc cnvies me bitterly; for she has all the
tastes which wealth and metropolitan home
can crafty. But Uncle Barnabas will not
hear of my exchanging with her.
"No. no." SAYS he, "the girl I've got is tho
p,rl 7 mean TO keep. Miss Eleanor is too inc
lady to suit me"
But he lets Ire send them liberal presents

To PRESERVE THE COLOR OF CALICoEs.-
Before washing almost any colored fabrics il
is recommended to soap them for some time
in water, to every gallon of which is added
a spoonful of oxgall. A teacup of I've in a
pal! of water is said to improve the color of
black goods, when it IS necessary to wash
them. 4 strong, clean tea of common hay
will preserve the color of French linens.
Vinegar in the rinsing water, tor pink or
green, will brighten those colors and soda
answers the same purpose for both purple
and blue. The colors of the above fabrics
may be preserved by using a strong milk.

dress into 1t, instead of rubbing it on the ma,

of water large tablespoonful of ox-gall,

There IS way of arranging acorns in

twics, and place upon a bright blue or scar
let velvet back ground, then frame, and you
have Il thing OF beauty The beautiful
wax autumn leaves are SO pretty and so dur
able that every one should have, at least, one
spray to brighten up the room most used.
The process is so simple and they are SO in
expensive that any one can have them. For
the benefit of those that Canno; procure the
meal moulds would say that paper patterns
cut from the natural leaves are full as salts

them after they are painted. And If very
bright scarlet ones are desired, the darkest
yellow wax makes the most brilliant leaves,
and l desire no better brush than my right
forctinger to rub the bright carmine in with.
A little practice will enable one, with nature
to copy from, to initiate the most beautiful
autumn leaves that so soon fade after being
gathered.
