to irritate you.
Don't be revengeful. Injustice re-
acts upon itself. He who does the
wrong is the one who loses most. All
wrong will some time be righted.
"Vengcancc is mine; I will repay,
saith the Lord" Be ready to sacri-
fee anything for peace except the right
to serve God and do good to your
neighbor. Not for life itself may we
let these sacred privileges 60. They
arc cnjoined from on high, and we must
serve God rather than man. AS you
obtain mercy, so you must show
mercy. Let Gods patience with you
be the standard of your patience with
others. You differ from the common
lot if you do not continually try God S
faithfulness toward you and tax His
patience with you. Notwithstanding
your neglect, your ingratitude and sin,
His mercy never fails. The Koran
says that two angels guard every man
on the earth, one watching on either
side of him, and when he sleeps they
fly up to heaven with a written report
of all his words and actions during the
day. Every good thing he has done is
recorded at once and repeated ten
times, lest some item may be lost or
omitted from the account. But when
they come to sinful thing, the angel
on the right says to the other, For
bear to record that for seven hours
peradventurc, as he awakes and thinks
in the quiet hours, he may be sorry
for it and repent and pray and obtain
forgiveness.

Needless Waste.

A few hints in regard to careless
wastefulness are we'll worth consider
ing. Waste in the kitchen is often
very great from apparently trivial
sources.
In cooking meats the water is thrown
out without removing the grease, or
the grease from the dripping pan is
thrown away.
Scraps of meat are thrown away.
Cold potatoes are left to sour and
| spoil.
Dried fruits are not looked after, and
become wormy.
Vinegar and sauce are left standing
in tin.
Apples are left to decay for want Of
sorting over.
The tea canister is left open.
Victuals are left exposed to be eaten
by the mice.
Bones of meat and the carcass Of
turkey are thrown away when they
could be used making good soups.
Sugar, tea, coffee and rice are care
lessly spilled in the handling.
Soap is left to dissolve and waste IL
water.
Dish towels are used for dish cloths
Napkins are used for dish towels.
Towels are used for helders.
Brooms and mops are not hung up
More coal is burned than necessar.
by not arranging dampers when no
using the fire.
Lights are left burning when no

Mustard is left to spoil in the cruise

Pickles become spoiled by th'
leaking out or evaporation Of the win
egar.
Pork spoils for the want of salt
and beef because the brine wants scald

1t has been tried Before.

1t is commonly supposed that the
South Carolina liquor law, now in it's
experimental stakes, is the celebrated
Gothenburg system slightly modified.
As a matter of fact the difference is
radical. The Gothenburg system is
simply sale of franchises for the
the vending Of liquors under Govern
ment supervision. The Government
reaps revenue and the traffic is re-
stricted and regulated. In South
Carolina the State conducts the busi-
ness through local dispensaries man
aged by officers of the State. Except
for the fact that the liquor sold in the
South Carolina dispensaries is sold for
use as beverage, the much discussed
dispensary law is not a new idea in
this country by about forty years.
Maine instituted system almost ex-
actly identical in 1916, the only ma
terial difference being that, under the
Maine law, liquor could be sold by
State commissioners, SO called, for
mechanical, medicinal and ,manufactu-
ring purposes only. But Maine was
not the only State that tried this plan.
Indiana went into the liquor business
as early as 1855. The Legislature Of
that year passed an Act modelled after
the Maine law, and almost identical in
the machinery of its application with
the present South Carolina statute.
Under the Indiana law any person re-
ceiving license from the county COM
missioners could manufacture liquor
at such place as the commissioners
might designate, but could dispose of
the products Of their stills only to the
authorized agents afterward provided
for. 1t then provided that the COM
missioners should appoint an agent or
agents in each county to purchase and
sell the liquor; that it must be pure
and unadulterated two agents only
to township were allowed, unless the
township contained over ten thousand
inhabitants, when two agents for each
ten thousand and one for each five
thousand might be appointed. The
agent or agents were required to pur-
chase and sell liquor at a profit, not
greater than 25 per cent, and to sell
only for medicinal, chemical and me-
chanical uses and pure wines for sac
ramcntal use. No inn keeper, grocery
keeper, boarding house keeper, fruit
store, saloon or similar places was
permitted to keep or sell liquor, nor
was any steamboat plying within the
State suffered to keep or sell. Agents
were appointed for year, subject to
removal for cause by the commission
ers. The agent was required to keep
strict account of his purchases and
sales, to give the names of those from
whom he purchased and to whom he
sold, kind of liquor sold and for what
purpose to be used. He was required
to report every three months and was
to be paid such amounts as the COM
missioners deemed fair. Agents were
required to give bond, varying from
81 1000 to $4,000. at the option of the
commissioners. Violations of the
statute were punishable by fine and
Imprisonment in the county Jail and
by confscaton of all liquors found in
possession Of persons not authorized
to keep ti;c same.

Effects Of Intense Cold.

The world of science has reason to
rejoice over a fuller knowledge of one
of the greatest discoveries Of the cen
fury. An audience of England s
greatest men has been watching ex-
periments which resulted in the pro-
duction of series of liquids strange
to human eyes and possessing quail
ties never before known. They saw
natural gases, such as oxygen and
nitrogen, even the air itself, REDUCED
to liquids of the consistency Of water.
Liquid air by the pint was produced
from the wonderful apparatus of Prof.
Dcwar, whose Investigations have
.suddenly,wo him a. prominent place
in the scientific world. His meth
oils are even more interesting to the
unscicnti6c observer than his results.
j. He succeeded in producing, by
means of vacuum of pressure, an al
most uncomfortable degree of cold.
Measured by the Fahrenheit Their
mometersit is 360idegrees below freez-
ing, 90 degrees centigrade below
zero. Oxygen can be liquifed at
1872 degrees centigrade and nitrogen
at-l92 degrees. When he produc-
cd these tempatures Prof. Dewar
found in experimenting with air that
instead Of oxygen in atmosphere
sliquifying first at its proper tempa-
ture and nitrogen later, one homoge-
neous liquid was formed without any
disintegration. When the process is
reversed, however, nitrogen is freed

The official call for q meeting OF
the State Central and Executive com
lnittees Of the Democratic party OF
Virginia, to be held here on the 18th
instant will, we trust, be responded
to by every member. It will be the
first step in the gubeynasorial CAM
paign of 1898, and the wisdom which
comes from multitude Of counsel is
as much needed now as at any recent
period in The history OF, the state.
Three things at least the commit
tees have to settlc-(l) the basis OF
representation in the, State conven-.
ton which is to be held to nominate
Democratic candidates for Governor,
Lieutcnant- Governor, and Attorney
General; CO where .he convention
shall be held, and (3) whcn9
1t is pretty generally agreed. we
believe, that one delegate for each
200 votes cast Tor Cleveland and Ste
.veason will give us as large conven-
ton as we need, or can be convenient
ly accommodated in any hall in this
State. That vote was l63,39T,
which, apportioaed upon the basis
suggested, would make 4 convention
of about $50 delegates.
Richmond, Norfolk aud Roanoke
are making claims for the convention.
AS to when the convention should
be held there seems to be a difference
of opinion. There arc gentlemen of
ability and prominence who think
it ought to be held early" Others
equally worthy of leadership in such
a matter declare their solemn con-
viction that the convention should be
held "late." Yet others, the Dis
patch among them, see no reason at
all why the convention should not
be held between the last week in July
and the 18th of Ausust--which is
the usual time.
All the members of the commit
tee should be prescnt-in person if
possible, if not then by proxy-on the
18th, when these questions will be
discussed and decided.

Prof. beware, is what happens with

Prof. beware, is what happens with
the suns rays on the earth, which
focused through infinite space. The
vacuums produced by Prof. Dewar's
apparatus arc so nearly perfect that
they contain gas of only one-mil-
lionth the denstiny of common air.
The tempaturc Of infinite space,
which is a perfect vacuum, the Pro-
fessor says is-274 degrees centisradc.
He hopes to reach tempature of
240 degrees, when hydrogen will liq-
uify. Prof. Dewar recently produc-
ed liquified ozone by acting on va
por given off from liquid oxygen by
electricity. It's splendid dark blue
color is almost as dark as indigo.
Ozone has not the same molecule
as oxygen. The queer thing about
liquid ozone iSthat when it, goes back
into gas again it cxplodes. 1t is
stronger than dynamite as an explo-
sive and this is simply because ozone
gets back into the molecular form of
oxygen so fast.
Some wonderful effects of intense
cold have already been discovered.
Iron, for instance, at an ordinary
temperature has only onesevcnth the
electric conducting power of copper,
but if the tempature be reduced to
200 degrees its capacity as conduc-
tor of electricity is multiplied by four
teen. If we could get metals down
to absolute zero, Professor Dewar
says; they would be perfect conduc-
tors. No expenditure of emery would
be necessary, and wire once charged
would run for ever.
The professor believes that 'one of
the creates problems of the world,
namely, whether the cohesiveness of
matter is dependent upon molecular
motion or upon gravity, will in time
be solved by means Of Investigations
conducted in intense artificial cold.
