The HarikarI of the PrOhis.

The Prohibition party of South Caro-
lima need not be taken into any serious
calculation by anybody. The man who
looks to them for good politics will be
disappointed. They held four aces and
got beat. If ever party proved its inca
pacity, it was the Prohibitionists of South
Carolina. They demanded the separate
box to determine the sentiment OF the
people on the subject of liquor. They
put lot of men in office and in the Sen
ate and House, and had good working
majority in favor of prohibition. But
they did not give their constituents pro-
hibition. On the contrary, they made
the dry towns wet, and the wet towns as
much wetter as possible. They merely
transformed the ownership of saloons
from those who, of their own volition,
chose rum selling for livelihood, to
those who do not approve Of the traffic.
Their sole object seems to be to make the
saloon and the saloon business as respec-
table as possible. 1t is we'll enough 10
keep in mind the fact that for the present
state of affairs in this State we must
thank the Prohibitionists and them only.

How to Kill Nut Grass.

have seen several inquiries lately
for method of killing nut grass. l
used to think the only way to get rid
Of it was to move off and leave it, but
I have found better method Of treat
ing it. I had about one acre of very
rich garden land thoroughly seeded
down with it. I could raise winter
or early spring crop, but it would
choke out any corn or cotton crop l
could plant.
Five years ago 1 raised crop of
Irish potatoes on it, then planted it in
corn. Before it was large enough to
hoe, it was mass Of green nut grass,
and to get it out of the hill pulled up
nearly all the corn. 1t was very dry
at the time, and by the time l was
through, my corn was nearly all dead,
but the grass was doing finely. Leon
cluded to try heroic treatment on it.
So I took Planet Orr cultivator and
tore up every blade Of corn and grass
in the field, using hoe around the
fences.
In about four days new crop came
up. Then I cultivated it the, other
way, always in the hot sun. The
fourth time I plowed it deep, aud |
got another pretty good crop of grass
started, which I cultivated as before.
In. one month, I think, l had
sprouted and killed every vestige of it,
as not stalk has appeared since, and
it has been planted to corn or sweet
potatoes every year since:
You can take this for what it is
worth, but the only way to get rid OF
it is to keep it from seeding, either
top or root, and cultivate and germi-
nate all dormant seed and kill them
by cultivation in the dry hot weather
of May and June.-John A1teU.

Gen. Gordon's Bullet Marks.

The reporter inquired about tho
deep wound which shows like the

check. Then the General told about
how he had received this wound at
Antietam. It was the last of five
wounds that he had received at that
battle. First bullet had entered his
right leg, and then another had pene-
trated almost the same place. After
that ball had shattered his right arm
and minnie ball crashed into his left
shoulder-blade. He was let alone for
q while and then bullet buried itself
in his left cheek just under the eye.
eye He blcd SO much that he
couldn't see, and after that he grew
unconscious.
"How could you continue in tho
field so long with all these wounds =
IT had to-" replied the old soldier
simply. "I was certain the men
would break if left the field. But
they carried me off after the cheek
wound. I couldn't see then.
Gen. Gordon smiled reminiscently
as he recalled the difficulty which the
Federals had experienced in hitting
him.
"I was shot thirteen times once
through the clothes without being
hurt" said he, "and after that the
boys said 7 bore a charmed life and
couldn't be hit. I began to half be-
lieve it myself when I awoke to sad
realization of my error at Sharpsburg.
My good wife nurscd me through that,

tirely black and / couldn't see out Of

fact that the very thorough yentila.

fact that the very thorough Tentlla-
tion prevents infection, and one doc
tor maintains that you cannot prevent
or limit Infection without such thor
ough ventilation as necessitates a
thorough draught. Therefore, when
colds are about it is necessary to defy
draughts. A thorough draught is the
true prevention of cold.
1t will, Of course, be understood that
it is not asserted that such thorough
ventilation as this is essential to
health where no illness or infection
exists. But it is quite worth while
to adopt it for a while, because one
can hardly realize otherwise how far
it can be carried with very little or no
discomfort. The most important prac-
tical point is that it is at all events
harmless. It is true that it is also
asserted that it is in all cases health
full, but if it is only harmless that alone
sufGces to brand the accepted ideas
about draughts and cold air as super
stitious. And if the accepted ideas
are superstitious, what an immense
relief to get rid Of them! To know
that we never need be afraid of cold
air or wet for ourselves or for any
members of our families, however
delicate they may be. 1t is only fear
of draughts that makes us submit to
the close air of theatres, churches,
railway carriages, and often more or
less of our own houses. Prove that
fear to be groundless, and mere com
fort will make us admit very much more
fresh air than we do without any di-
rect hygeinic intention.
And this at least may be regarded
as certain, that the more fresh air we
admit the less risk we shall run, not
only Of infection by common colds.
but of infection by any Of the numer-
Gus and still more deadly diseas-
es which are known to be spread by
Infection.

TEA AND TosAcoo INSANITY.
Their Excessive Use by Underfed People
the Cause of Mental Failure.

Their Excessive Use by Underfed People
the Cause OF Mental Failure.
A report upon insanity in Ireland
which has just been issued enumerates
among the causes of mental failure the
innutritious dietary of the poorer pop
ulation-tending to produce anaemia
and constitutional weakness, which
favor the development of scrofulous
and neurotic disease-and the immod-
crate use of certain nervous stimulants,
particularly tea and tobacco.
''While the moderate use of properly
prepared tea the report adds, sis re-
garded as innocuous or even beneficial
in its action on the nervous system, its
i'll effects, when decocted or overin-
fused, on persons who make it their
stable article of dietary are dwelt on
by almost all the resident medical
superintendents in their several re-
ports. Undoubtedly the method of
preparation adopted and the excessive
use of this article of diet, now so gen
eral among our poorer population, tends
to the production of dyspepsia, which
in its turn leads to states of mental
depression highly favorable to the
production of various forms of neurot-
ic disturbance. The excessive use of
tobacco also, especially among the
young, whether by smoking or chew
ing, in the opinion of certain of our
medical superintendents acts, though
perhaps in a minor degree, injuriously
on the nervous centers."
In many parts of Ireland it has been
found that bread and tea have been
substituted for porridge and milk, and
for potatoes also; that the tea used is
generally of an inferior quality, and
the method of preparation is to put
quantity in the teapot early in the
morning and to allow it to stew during
the day, water being added as required.
