A red-nosed man, with shabby

Bending down opposite bright

another woman.
The red-nosed man pretended not
to hear these remarks, and presently
addressed the little girl again:
You remind ME so much Of one OF

my pet.

claimed another woman in disgust.
Heres the nickel for the child.

The red nosed man reached out his
hand and took the money with an in

Madam he said reproachfully,

the globe made out of 6, go oranges and
the horse of prunes are unique displays
of art and fruit. I want to say right
here that although California fruit is
pretty, the taste of it cannot excel the
favor of a peach ripening in August in
the orchards of Newberry County,
South Carolina. This should be a
well known fact.
The Woman's building contains ex-
clusiyely the
HANDIWoRK OF THE FAIR SEX
in needleworl,, in art decoration and
endless displays of her deft fingers in
the home. The style Of the Woman's
building is beautiful and statuary Of
angels appropriately surmount the roof
like the guardians of home and happi-
ness. This building is woman's sphere,
and the managers Of the Exposition
must have so intended it, for no COM
petitive exhibits are there displayed,
and she rules supremely fair in own
domain. In, the other buildings no
regard is paid to sex and all compete
together, but her work to be admired
must be seen in the Woman's palace.
However, without regard to the
eternal fitness of things, this building,
with it's beautiful interior, stands very
near the entrance to noisy Midway
Plaisance. The Children's building is
also adjoining. It contains the work
of children, and their little voices can
be heard there in concert of song at
stated times, but in the nursery where
mothers leave their babies checked
like so much animated baggage, the
bachelor members of the Press Asso-
citation found an insight into some of
the comforts of home without concert
of desire uttered or unexpressed. The
babies were well taken care Of and
they were one of the lively sights.
A glance at the printing of Puck for
the coming Christmas, in the Puck

final letter. w. p. H.

Not saying anything Of the earth
quake that demolished so much Of
Charleston, s. c., few years ago, it
has been an illfated city.
In 1899 hurricane raised the sea
as high as the second stories of the
houses.
&The summer of 1852 was very hot,
and in the fall a. hurricane from the
northeast raised the water ten feet
above high-water mark. The city was
overt1owed and filled with wrecks of
ships and houses.
In May, 1857, wbirlwind laid the
channel of Ashley river bare, swept
the loftiest trees before it like chaf-
sunk five vessels anchored there, and
dismasted eleven others.
We get these facts from the fourth
edition of "a Modern Geography Of the

and published in 1915, in Philadelphia
and by five other publishing houses.

His Excellency, B. R. Tillman, Gov
ernor South Carolina.
Sir-As result Of the investigations
made at your request, 7 submit the fol-
lowing report:
Three days were spent in making
personal visits to the islands around
Beaufort and I there found the situa-
tion so serious as to demand immedi-
ate attention. The facilities for COM
munication between the tier of islands
and country between Charleston and
Savannah at best are poor, and just at
this time especially so. In addition to
visiting numbers of the islands inquiry
was made through reliable sources of
the existing conditions in parts not
personally inspected. It is with regret
that after careful inquiry I must con-
firm the reliability of the published
accounts of the number of deaths, loss
of crops and devastation of that Sec
ton.
All that section of South Carolina
known as the sea islands and those
parts of .Colleton, Berkeley, Beaufort
and Charleston Counties subjected to
tide water influences were more or less
seriously damaged by the cyclone and
high tide of Sunday, August 9th. The
destruction of crops and homes was
more especially noticeable on the ex-
posed islands.which include, Johns,
Wadmalaw, Port Royal, Coosaw, st.
Helena and other adjacent islands.

Economy In Fashionable Dressmaking.

Though passing through CONNER.
cial crisis of unusual intensity, we may
safely count on a natural reaction at a
not far distant day, for the unlimitless
resources of this great country are
bound to bring good times back again.
AS long, however, as the financial un-
certainty lasts, many a woman will
feel that she must curtail, in some de-
gree, the expenses of her wardrobe.
Now is the time to subscribe to first
class fashion magazine, which will not
only illustrate the current styles, Int
at the same time, teach how to make
them by means of series of practical
lessons. This is most judicious econ
omy which can be accomplished with
ouS any perceptible change in ones
mode of dressing, and without conse-
quently attracting the criticel notice of
ones neighbors. The Mcdowell Fash
ion Journals are calculated to fill this
need. They are the finest publications
of their kind in either Paris or New
York, and contains, precisely, a series
of lessons teaching practical dressmak-
ing. Ladies as well as dressmakers

indeed, for that matter, any design
clipped from any other fashion journal)
in the form of made up paper models-
with fat patterns besides, exactly rep
resenting every detail of the original.
This reduces artistic dressnaking to
the easiest and simplest method. The
most popular OF these Fashion Maga-
zines are LA Mode de Paris" paris
Album OF Fashion," THE French
DressnaKer," and "La Mode" The
former two cost only $3.50 each per an
num, or IS cents copy. "The French
Dressmakern is 300 year, while LA
Mode" costs only $3.50 year, or Is
cents a copy, and is the best as well as
the cheapest, fashion journal for the
home. If'you are unable to procure
any of these magazines at your news
dealer, do not accept any substitute,
but apply directly to Mess. A. Mellow
