A CARD.
To the Editor of the Herald: On my return
to Rock Hill, August 2Sth, from my country
work, I found that vague runors were
af1oat that had used my ministerial intiu-
ence in the recent political canvass in York
county in advocacy of certain candidates.
I would say that have ever insisted that
ministers of the Gospel should utterly ig-
more partisan politics, as for my course this
year, have utterly ignored all politics, and
although importuned to work for certain
parties, I have not sWerved from my rule.
Although my name may have been lugged
in by designing persons, it was without my
knowledge or consent. / claim that it is the
privilege and duty of ministers to give their
views Of principles advocated by candidates,
which I have incidentally done this year in
private conversation in every case withhold
ing an opinion of the men, as am unac-
quainted personally with the Senatorial can a.
didates. I can truthfuly say do not think
I have Influenced single vote. 1 had not
decided for whom I should cast my vote
until the morning of the election.
Now it is my interest in the spiritual and
moral welfare of my fellow men that has
led me to write this card, believing that
shall receive even greater sympathy ana
support than ever by the good people OF
Rock Hill and surrounding country in my
work as q minister OF the SOSpel, uecduse vi
what have suffered. J. B. TRAYwICK.
PETRIFIED BoDY.-Mr. Alsa Mitchell,
of this county, died last week. His wife
died about six years ago and was bu-
ried on the plantation. Mr.. Mitchell re-
uuested to be buried at Bells church, and
desired his wife's body to be exhumed and
placed beside his, and when they dug into
her grave her body was found to be as firm
ond Sol;d aS rocE having become Detrifi-
ed. Her features were not shrunken and
the face was as full as healthy live person.
Her dress looked as natural and perfect as
when she was first buried. 1t is a remark
able case of petrifaction. Chatham (N. c.

The Gufllotine,s Name.

The shade of DR.. Guillotine ought to
be content! That gentleman was born
at Saintes in 174S, and died in Paris in
1914. He was professor of anatomy
and physiology, and, being an authori,
ty on all sanitary questions, he was a
kind OF standing counsel on all these
matters. He exposed the charlatanism
of the divining rod, and with Franklin
made joint report, in 1884, to the Con-
stituent Assembly, of which he was a
member, against the reputed miracles
of Mesmer. He did notinvent the gull.
lotine, as it popularity believed; but he
nearly was executed by it, as he was ar
rested during the Reign of Terror, and
escaped, like so many others, by the
fall and execution of Robcspierre. His
political enemies, the Royalists, called
the machine after him; the name stuck
and saddened the poor doctors
remaining years. In his memoirs
he never alludes even to that in
strument The doctor proposed to the
Assembly that since the law declared
equality before the executioner, mode
of punishment ought to be devised
where all would be executed alike. Till
then mobiles had the privilege to be de-
eapltated by the AK or sword, and that
forfeit OF life carried with it no disgrace
for the victim family. The plebeians
were hanged, and that death was ASSOC
ciated with infamy. DIR. Guillotine. adj
dressing the Assembly, advocating for
purely philanthropic reasons the rapid
dispatch of the condemned, said:
with my instrument Iucan whip off
your head In the twinkling of an eve.
and without your feeling the least
pain. EXPLOSIONS of laughter fol-
lowed, and the poor doctor was carica-
tnred numerically. 1t was colleague
of the school of medicine, DR.. Louis,
that was called upon to report
on a machine made by a Ger
man man named Schmid, for de-
capitation. 1t was experimental
upon at Electra, on corpses, cats. docs.
rabbits, poultry, etc., and pronounced
admirable. Schmid received a patent
to supply the machine for the deuart-
ments at ''eight hundred and twenty
four pounds each. Out of gratitude
he baptized it ssLouisette, - but the
name did not take any more than that
"a oho NdeAVudl hdIoT, or the
windmill OF Silence" In the slang
of the prisons tits called THE Widow. .
The inventor of the guiliotine is I'M
known, possibly it is lost in the night
of time, or dates from China. Accord
ing to some old engravings, an instru-
ment not unlike it has been known in
Scotland in the sixteenth century; q
variety of the machine exists in Italy,
called mannaja, and beyond doubt that
was the instrument employed to decap-
itate the Due Henri de Montmorenci.
in 1852, in Lanquedoc. The ak was
cumberson and cruel; two blows were
required to sever the head of Mary
Queen OF Scots, four for Monmouth.

1t is said that the development of
flavor can be fastened by subjecting
the cheese to a strong current of air.
The flavor is developed by the process
of oxidation. If the cheese is kept in
too close air during the process of curing
it will be likely to be deficient in flavor.
"A correspondent of the Americqaa
AgricuIturiSt says that the color in
the skin of a COW indicates color in the
butter. He has never seen a yellow
skinned COW that gave pale butter, or
very rich colored skin in a COW that
did not give yellow or yellowish butter
all through the winter. When the yelk,
which gives this color in the ears, tail
and skin, begins to show in the calf, it
will probably never show less, and
what butter the COW gives will be of
good color.
To boil an egg so that it is fit to
eat, drop it in boiling water, and place
| the vessel, covered, on top of the stove,
at one side where the water will not
| boil. Let it stand eight or ten minutes.
By this method the egg will be cooked
| through and the white will be soft-not
| the hard, indigestible substance it be-
comes by the usual method. Even if
the egg is left little too long and be-
comes hard it will not be like an ordi-
nary hard boiled egg, as trial will con-
vince anyone.--M. 7. Times.
A half acre of asparagus, the same

out of it. A score or so of hens, few
ducks and mich COW could easily be
thrown in, as well as a small garden
patch for home consumption. 1t may
seem very vulgar to some to work in
this way, but would much rather do
it than stand behind a counter ten
to twelve hours day, or sit at sew

on the day the eruption took place

Many portions of Europe and Asia

extent of land and sea, was shaken BY
this earthquake. The great rock Of

In Central and Southern Italy many
notable earthquakes have taken place.
One of the most severe of modern tines
occurred in March, 1881, when the
pretty town of Casamicciola, on The
island of Ischia, was ruined in mo-
ment. At one o'clock on sunny aft
ernoon its inhabitants We're tranquil and

were nothing but heaps of stone and
rubbish. It is singular fact that the
tower of the church remained standing,
bearing aloft the great clock, the hands
of which had stopped at the instant the
fatal shock occurred. - Helen s. Ceaants
