The new Columbian Souvenir Half
Dollar is very pretty piece of silver.
On one side of the coin, in the center, is
the profile protrait of Columbus-or
what may as well stand for his portrait
as any other. as there has no portrait Of
him yet been found which, it is absolutely
certain, was taken from life. Around
the rim and encircling the head are the
words: United States OF America
Columbian Half Dollar On the other
side, aropnd the rim, are the words:
"Columbian Exposition, Chicago" In
the lower part of the circle are the
two hemispheres Of the globe, and resting
upon them the caravel ''Pinta,' the ship
in which Columbus himself sailed, and
from which he discovered America. To
the left of the Western hemisphere are
The figures Il; to the right of the East

Meath is the date 1892 1t is well worth
possessing, and keeping, and at last
handing down to some one else, as a
memento of the celebration Of the 40Gth
anniversary of the discovery of America.

waste Your money on so-called business
charts. and all that sort OF thing. and
vainiy imagine you are advertising But
you are not. The newspaper that every
day viSits hundreds of homes, and is
looked upon by its readers as reliable
friend and adviser. is the medium through
which the wide-awake business man will
speak TO the people. Quack advertising,
the kind you bite on when stranger
comes around with great scheme is
like quack edic;.,c-the less you take Of
ii the better The man who appreciates
the value of newspaper advertising, and
has business instinct enough to know
tha. other methods are spurious, is the
man who meets with success.
Anderson Peoples -4dcocate: "a good
deal of stress has been laid upon the fact
that the Bank OF Newberry has declared
a dividend of 30 per cent and will divide
5.0oo of its surplus among its stock
holders. And it is sid that this shows
the effect of the course of the admins
ration towards the banks, and that capi
tai is withdrawing, from the banking
business because of excessive and unjust
taxation. Does not this prove too much9
And is it not a false position? For how
do the owners of this $4,000 hope to
escape taxation? 1t will be money in
their pockets or on deposit, and under
the laws of the State it is taxable at its
full value. They cannot hope for it to
escape taxation. for they have to make
sworn statement of all moneys on hand,
and as honorable men they cannot per-
jure themselves. Their position is an
untenable one and they have not, accord
ing to our way of thinking, helped them
selves. They have reduced the banks
ability to accommodate the people, but
they have not deprived the State of any
taxes unless they do not mean to deal
squarely with her in rendering in their
assessments.

is placed in the mouth of sort of lamp,

Ailments of the Nose.

Among tho doctors the nose is now the
fashionable organ. Until recently its claims
were ignored. Not long ago it was the eyes,
and women were put into spectacles for
hysteria, and to children were given glasses
for awkwardness and i'll temper. Every
one can remember when it was fashionable
to have delicate lungs and when palpita-
tion of h heart was something Of an &C.
complishment. Literature reveals the pop
ularity of the spleen, and the classics used
the word ''venter" as the hub of the little
universe called man. But we have changed
all that, as the nose, the doctor now says,
is not merely the ''scenter," but the center
of the human microcosm. This frightful
example of punning is the result of a re-
cent essay by DR.. Carpenter IN the nose,
which by actual count can get up on its
w account ST separate diseases, and which
he enumerates. as a witty nan saws. like

If we have things the matter with us, that

that should be kept from exciting atten-
ton will actually plume themselves on

An Anecdote Of q Prince.

While Prince George was serving on the
West Indian squadron, he was put in CON-
mand of the steamship Thrush. The fol-
lowing day u sailor in irons was brought
On board the vessel to be transported to
smother part of the station. The prisoner
was but a lad of the same age as the young
commander, and there was something in
his face and bearing, reckless though he
was, which showed that he was not wholly
bad.
Prince George watched him keenly dur
Ing the short voyage, and after he had de-
livered him up for punishment made u note
of the time when his imprisonment would
be over. When the day came, he applied
to the admiral to have the man transferred
to the Thrush.
The admiral demonstrated, urging that
it was not the prisoners first ~otfense; that
he had been drunken and disorderly for
three years.
LET me try what l can do" said the
prince. The admiral reluctantly consent
ed, and when the prisoner came on board
the Thrush he was brought before the
young captain.
When they were alone together, the boy
whom fortune had made a prince said to
the boy whom she had made an outcast:
You have been transferred to myship. l
believe there is some good in you, and !
wish to give you n chance for your life.
You are given a clean sheet o. your record.
