has been here for the past month,
hunting for the bodies of his sister

That wes Just tho Reason.

1t seems that the COMPENSATION

counties of Virginia was one day
greatly shocked upon learning that
their preacher had departed under
most discreditable circumstances.
On the following Sunday nearly cv-
cry one in the congregation was de-
sirous OF hushing up tho scandle, and
under great restraint many interest
ing conversations were held merely
to prove that the members of tho
church could rise above sensational
gossip. Just before the services
were closed Brother Elijah L. Brook
rod arose and said:
"tBrethren aud sisters: Since we
last met in this house something
which seems to have cast gloom
over the congregation has occurred.
We were all very much attached to
our minister; in fact, we loved him,
and now | propose that we offer up
a prayer for the wandcrcr.'
"a sensational wave passed over
the audience. Another brother arose
and turning to Elijah y. Brook
rod, said:
"'l am astonishcd that you should
desire tn" congregation 10 pray for

The White House.

nc rcSlucnCc or the president
of the United States, says YouAs
Companion, if officially known as
the Executive Mansion, which means
that it is the residence of the head
of the Executive branch of the Gov
ernment; but it is seldom called, in
ordinary talk, either by those who
live in it, or by the American people
in general, anything but the White
House. This is a very unpre.en-
tious title, and it is interesting to
note how the residence of the Pre-
sident, in a county which is full of
white houses, came to bear this sim
pie name as its special property.
The explanation is easily found.
The first Executive Mansion at
Washington was occupied in 1900.
1t was built of frccstonc, and was
unpaintcd; but in 1914 the British
army occupied Washington, and
burned, with other public buildings,
the Presidents house, leaving it a
blackened ruin.
The house was rebuilt on the same
site, and the same walls were used
in its construction; but they were SO
discolored by smoke that, on the
suggestion of General Jackson, they
were painted white, not only to i'm
prove their appearance, but in token
of the successful defiance of British
fire by the American Republic.
The mansion soon became the
"Whitc House" in the mouths
of the people on account of its daz-
zling color, and from that day to
this it has been rcpaintcd white eve
ry ten years. Its name commemo-
rates patriotic feeling, therefore,
as well as serves to describe the ap-
pcarance of the mansion, for the
original coat, of white paint was a
sort of protest against the wanda
lism of the British, and every subsc-
quent coat has served to pcrpctuatc
the protest.
The house has not been altogether
comfortable as place of residence,
and has required almost constant re-
pairs and alterations. 1t is said to
be damp, and while it may not be
positively unhealthy, it has become
customary for the Presidents family
to take quarters elsewhere for the
summer.
The White House is the Presi
dents Office as well as his residence.
On the first floor arc several large
apartments, including the East Room
which is forty by eighty feet in size
and twenty-five feet high, the Blue
Room, the Reed Room and the
Green Room.
On the second floor are the Prcsi-
dents oilicc-a large room looking
to the Potomac and the Long
Bridgc-thc rooms Of the Presidents
secretaries, and the private apart
mcnts for the Presidents family.
1t has occasionally been suggested
that new and more magnificent
residence be erected for the Prcsi-
dent, and that the White House be
reserved az an Office for the Execu-
tive Department, bnt Congress has
thus far been disinclincd, or too busy
to adopt the suggestion.

has issued the following circular:
To the Farmers Of South Caro-.
lima: The exhibits in the field crop
department at the annual fairs of
the Stato Agricultural and Mechani-
seal Society should fully represent
the agricultural resources of South
y Carolina. Our stock shows have an
nually grown in Importance, and, for
the past few years, are surpassed by
only few States Of the Union. The
mechanical department has lately
considerably improved and the mi
nor features of the fairs have been
satisfactory; but the chief industry
of our people, agriculture, hes not
55a.!'ooa cscaitab!y represented, ewing
to the lack of interest shown by the
farmers in their special department..
at the last meeting of the Executive
Committee of the Society the under
4 signed were placed in charge of the
field crop department., and they ap-
peal to the farmers of the State to as
sist them in making the agricultural
exhibit the leading and most attrac-
tive feature of the fair of 1889.
Il Entries should be made from all sec
tions of South Carolina and should
include the various products of the
8 sell.
The liberal premiums offered by
the Society, the transportation faci-
lities afforded by the railroads, and,
J above all, the interest that farmers
should have in our agricultural de-
yelopmcnt and improvement, should
secure general response to this ap-
peal. The premium list is given be-
low. The competition is limited to
South Carolina production. All ar
ticles must be grown by the cxilibi-
Z tor and shown in the quantity named

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurablc. For q
great many years doctors pronounced it
local disease, and prescribed local re-
medics, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in-
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
