CONDENSED TRUTHS.

Home is the rainbow of life.
Delays have dangerous ends.
Every vice fights against virtue.
We rise in glory as we sink in
pride.
All are not friends who speak US
fair.
When we strike mud we get
smeared over.
Oppression is more easily borne
than insult.
Folded hands are not necessarily
resigned ones.
Mere concealment is in most ca
ses a mischief.
The proud are ever most provok-
ed by pride.
They who live in worry invite
life to hurry.
Without a rich heart wealth is an
ugly beggar.
Pens and ink out of reach avoid
many a'breach.
Poets are like birds: the least
thing make them sing.
Suspicion is no less an enemy to
virtue than to happiness.
To be poor, and to seem poor, is
a certain method never to rise.
Private opinion is weak but pub
lie opinion almost omnipotent.
A desire to resist oppression is
implanted in the nature of man.
Opportunity is rare and a wist
man will never let it go by him.
How oft the sight of means to dc
i'll deeds makes deeds i'll done.
Poverty makes people satirical-
soberly, sadly, bitterly satirical.
To be great man it is necessary
to turn to.account all opportunities
Do all you can for a woman anC
she'll expect you to do a littl'
more.
| The rays of happiness, like thos'
of light, are colorless when unbro-
ken
1t is easy to look down on others
to look down on ourselves is tn
difficulty.
1t is vain for man to he borl
fortunately if he be unfortunate il
his marriage.
Humanity is never so beautifu
as when praying: for forgiveness o
else forgiving another.
Let usefulness be the guide o
your actions and be not overcom
by tinsel and false show.
You will notice that those folk
who know most are the listener
that they may learn more.
The human heart has a strang
knack of making its past perils aug
ment it's present peace.
1t is unbecoming the character o
wise man to commit the fault TO
which he reproves others.
The desire of being pitied or ad
mired is commonly the reason o
one confiding things to others.
When a man has no desire but t.
speak the plain truth he may say
great deal in a narrow space.
Some peoples hearts are shrunl
in them like dried nuts. You cal
hear 'em rattle as they walk.
Patience is very easy thing tC
talk about but hard enough to prac
tice for the best of US.
He who is the most slow in max.
ing a promise is the most faithful
in the performance Of it.
Innocence confers ease and free
dom in the mind and leaves it open
to every pleasing sensation.
The true coin is not always known
by its ring. 1t must have the full
weight to pass at par.
In the education of children love
is first to- be instilled, and out OF
obedience is to be educated.
Intelligent people make many
FLANDERS because they do not be-
lieve the world is as stupid as it is.

A Georgia man has invented a
new rat trap, which is not protected
by patent. He took a keg and filed
it about half full of water and
placed cotton seed on top of the
water, which foated on the surface.
He then sprinkled meal on top of
the cotton seed and placed the keg
in his barn. Next morning he
emrtied his keg of 100 drowned
rats!-Ex.
We have known almost as good
trapping done with barrel of wa
ter, with layer of wheat bran on
the surface. The farmer had sew
eral barrels of wheat bran in a row,
and noticed the rats had q road
across them all. He took out one
barrel of bran and put in another
filed with water, and about an inch
of wheat bran on the surface. The
next morning the barrel was literal
ly full of drowned rats, and num-
bers escaped by running over dead
ones, there being enough to sup
port them.-SpiriE of the Farm.

these sounds may be phonographi-

SAME OLD TALE-The towns of
Lancaster and Woodruff, both dry by
act OF the legislature, are agitating the
question of new charters allowing IL
ccnscs for the sale Of liquor. They find
the existing law perSiStently violated
by druggists and others, and that pub
lie sentiment is not strong enough to
secure the punishment of the criminals.
This is the same old tale. We believe
that the whiskey selling druggists does
more to defeat prohibition than all the
votes Of those opposed to it in South
Carolina. The temperance people
ought to start movement against
them.

\ WORD OF ADvICE.-After YOU get
or your ear and make up your mind to
stop your paper to make the editor feel
Inundated, just poke your finger in
water and then pull it out and look for
the hole. Then you will know how
sadly you are missed. The man who
thinks that q paper cannot survive
without his support. ought to 60 off
and stay awhile. When he comes back
half his friends don't know he was
gone. The other half didn't care cent
and the world at large had not kept
any account Of his movements what
ever. You find things you cannot in
dorse in every newspaper. Even the
Bible is rather plain, and hits some
very hard licks. If you were to get
mad and burn your Bible, the hundreds
Of presses would still go ahead printing
them. and il you were to stop your pa
per ana call the editor all sorts OF
ugly names, the newspaper would still
be published And, what is more, YOU
will sneak around and borrow copy
every week from your neighbor. 1t IS
much better to keep your vest pulled
down and Jour subscription paid up at
least one year in advance.

PHILOMATIIIC LITERARY SOCIETY,"
The exercises Of the present scholastic
year of Mellichamps High School were
brought to a close last Thursday even
ing by the public debate of the Philo-
mathic Literary Society, composed of
the more advanced young men and
young ladies Of the school. The first
part of the exercises consisted Of read
ings by Miss Rosa Wolfe, B. Z. 1Zlar,
Miss Gertie Cannon, Miss Edith Melli-
champ, ]. +. Lightfoot, and an original
essay by Miss Floriede LoWman. Then
came the discussion Of the query,
(which has bestowed the greatest
benefit on mankind, the warrior, states
man, the philosopher or poet?" Mr..
Jos. Y. Andrews advocated the claims
Of the warrior, Mr.. Fred Wannamaker
spoke in behalf of the statesman, Mr..
Louis Link in behalf of the philosopher,
and Mr.. w. r. Lowman closed the de-
bate by contending that the poet was
entitled to be classed the greatest bene-
tit hetowed on mankind. The speeches
showed considerable thought and
thorough preparation, were well de-
livered, and were frequently appladed
by the large audience. Mr.. Il. NJ. Ray
sor, Of the Orangeburg Bar, presided
over the debate. and at it's conclusion
delivered an eloquent and exceedingly
appropriate address to the young men
and Young ladies Of the society and
school. Mr.. Raysor's speech contain
ed much valuable food for thought and
made decided impression on his audi
cnce. His thoughts were clothed in the
most chaste and beautiful language,
and his earnest delivery was well calcu-
lated to make fine impression on his
hearers.

fall in the Autumn, these fresh spirits
from school will enjoy the most de-
lightful rest-time of their lives. The
preliminaries are past, and the real Ia
bors have not yet begun. Youthful
anXieties are over, and the veXations ef

formation that the latter shall be at
tended to at once" We have no doubt
it would be attended to; none in the
world. The real essence of Jensen e.
Co.. is found in the advertisement they
send, which says their agency is 'Estab-
lished to supply settlers in the States

women who are willing to communi-
cate with bona fde tradeSmen, farmers
