NOW THE DfSfENSARY LAW.
For the First Time il is Del ated in the
Constitutional Convention.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Nov. THE dispen-
sary law for the first time was made an
issue in the debate in the Constitutional
Convention to-day on the proposition to
give the State tie same right to change
tne venue as is accorded defendant.
This was introduced solely to secure dis
pensary convictions when it was found
impossible to DO so in cities like
Charleston aad Columbia. The conven
ton by a vote of II to 81 refused TO
adopt that provision, but by vote Of
70 to SO it gave the Legislature permis-
sion to allow the State TO ask change
in cases to be prescribed by it, which
means that it will be allowed in dis
penSary cases.

Clever Japanese Devices.

The japanese have a mode of prepar-
ing stencils which is better than ours
In our method complicated figures must
be divided by broad lines of paper in
order to glue the paper together and
make the stencil strong enough for use,
and these bands of paper leave blanks in
the design which must often be filled
in by hand The Japanese cut their
stencils out of two or sometimes three
thicknesses' of thin but tough paper.
Then between each two of these sheets
they lay, crossing one another in all
directions. human hairs or fibers OF raw
silk. These axe specially laid across the
open parts of the design, and when the
several layers of the stencil are glued
together they serve the same purpose as
the bands Of paper left by our stencil
cutters, but they form no obstacle to the
application of the color and leave no
blanks in the design.
The same clever workers use rice
paste, applied with the brush or with
stencils, for stopping out" i'll dyeing
or in painting with dyes. When the
color is fixed, the rice paste can be
washed away. They also obtain the op-
pOsite effect on silks of European or
American manufacture. Having found
that these often fade quickly, they exc
cute design on them in rice paste,
then treat them with chloride Of lime
until they are bleached. The rice paste
is then washed away, leaving the de-
sign in the original color-Art Anna
teur.

How Carnot Was Named.

The way in which the late President
Garnet was named after the Persian
poet Sadi, who is little read nowadays,
is interesting and recalls deal of
French history. Sadi was the favorite
poet Of the French revolutionists of the
last century. and the literature of the
day is full Of quotations from him.
Carnot's father Of the directory was,
like the rest, a great admirer Of Sadi
and named one Of his sons after him.
This son was the late presidents uncle.
and the name was continued in the fam
lily. After the death of his father the
late president was simply NJ. Carnot
Before that he had been NJ Sadi Car

Mr.. E. C. Mewhirter, who was 5 former

Hartwell GA Sun.
An amusing incident occurred at the
close of Sam Jones. sermon at Pulaski
the other day. Stepping down from the
pulpit, folding his arms across his
breast and looking solemnly over the
audi ence, the great revivalist said: 81
want all the women in this crowd who
have not spoken a hard word or har-
bored an unkind thought toward their
husbands for a month past to stand
up" One old lady apparently on the
shady side Of go stood up. "Come for
ward and give me your hand, said the
preacher. The woman did so, where
upon Jones said: Nov turn around
and let the audience see the best look
ing woman in the country. Now I want
all the men who have not spoken a
hard word or haTbOTed unkind thought
toward their wives for a month past to
stand up" Twenty-seven great, big,
strapping fellows hoped out of the
audience with the alaTcity of cham
payne corks. Come forward and give
me your hands, my dear boys" said the
preacher, giving each one a vigorous
shake after which he ranged them side
by side in front of the pulpit and fac
ing the audience. He looked them ov-
er carefully and solemnly, and then
turning to the audience he said: Il
want you all to take a good look at the
q biggest liars in the state of Tennes-
see."
