We regret that more OF our Christian
people were not present to have heard
the address oEMr. Law, and learned some
thing of the Society, which is doing such
grand work in supplying all the nations
of the earth with the Word Of God. The
Anderson County Society is an auxiliary
of the American Bible Society, and any
person who will pay dollar to the Treas
urer becomes member of 1t for one year.
The Society sells Bibles at the actual
cost of printing them, and they may be
secured at the depository at any time from
five cents up-owing to the style of bind.
ing, etc.-and persons who are not able to
pay for copy are furnished free of cost.
A colporteur has recently canvassed An
derson County, selling and giving away
the Bible. Colporteurs are sent all over
the world to do the same work, their sala.
ries and expenses being paid by the parent
Society. We would like to see more In
terest manifested in the Anderson Society,
for 1t can d. noble work, and it deserves
the encouragement and aid of every
Christian.

Solomon Is Not Dead.

MEssRs. EDITORS: "Son of Toir' must
have toiled long time in trying to assist
my friend, alliance Man." to reply to the
few candid and sucere suggestions I
made through your valuable paper to the
people. He seems to concede that "Alli-
ance Man" is not able to take care Of him
self in this matter, and volunteers to
''toil" 10 his behalf. It strikes me that
"Son of Toil' must have toiled very hard
for few days before writing his witty ~
article, and the night before writing il he
must have eaten big mess of cheese and
ham for supper.
I wish to state to my friend, No. 2, that
don't "stand'' on his soil, and am not
"driving" at rice birds t am trying, at
least, to write to people %ho stop occa:
sionally and think, and who do not get
mad at man who says something they
can't contradict.
would like for "Son of Toll" or some
of his friends "in his behalf" to show me
one single word in his article that can be
beneficial to anybody. He has no "bel''
to ring, and, like the fox that lost his tail,
he wants everybody to be like himself,
consequently he is trying to crack my
"bell' as be terms it. Instead of trying
to get into the walnut and get the goody,
he is undertaking to eat the bulls, and,
not liking them, declares thereis no goody
in the walnut.
never said "be sure and put on more
bagging than the Liverpool men take off,"
I merely showed the chronic grumblers
how that could be done, and advised the
use OF heaviest bagging and ties because
it is legitimate. They who fix the tare say
we will take off six per cent. for tare, you
can pack your cotton as you please.
Now, please show me any contradiction
between this and the rule my friend
speaks so highly of. The Liverpool men
do not tell us how much we are to put on,
but how much they take off. There is not
solitary principle of morality violated in
using two and one.half pound bagging
and heaviest ties, provided they are not
doubled. Cover your cotton entirely up
with bagging aud secure 1t with ties, and
the Liverpool men do not object.
hope my friend has some grace, and
will never fall from it.
I wished to suggest to all farmers the
propriety of getting Jute that was not
controlled by the trust to compete with
the bagging that was controlled by the
"trust.H No one is so blind as that man
who can, but will not see.
Excuse me, fyou please.
