TO TEACHERS OF CLARENDON
COUNTY.

Teaching has become a progressive
art, new methods and new ideas are
being introduced every day which
make the work itself more pleasant
and the results more satisfactory to
both teacher and pupil.
No one can teach without using
some plan and as a general thing,
each one uses plan which he has
shaped from his surroundings and
his individual needs; this being the
case. no two use the same method
in their schools. By coming in con-
tact one with another, we could
learn much from each other and l
know of no other way of bringing
the teachers of Clarendon county to-
gether than by the organization OF
a teachers association. The purpose
to be, the Improvement of all who
may desire to connect themselves
with US; have monthly meetings in
the town of Manning and at each OF
the meetings have papers and talks
on the different methods of teaching
and general school management.
If a number desire to become mem
bers it could be organized at an early
date. I make this as a suggestion to
the teachers who wish to keep up
with the recent developments in our
profession and hope they will re-
spond.
Through the kindness of the Ed
itor of The Times those wishing to
express their views, may do SO
through its columns, would be
glad to hear personally from those
interested in the matter

pleasure to you to know the high esteem
in which Chamberlains medicines are held
by the people Of your own State, where
they must be best known. An aunt Of
mine, who resides at Dexter, Iowa, was
about to visit me few years since. and be-
fore leaving home wrote me, asking if they
were sold here. stating if they were not she
would bring quantity with her, as she
did not like to be without them" The
medicines referred to are Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, famous for its cures Of
colds and Group; Chamberlain's Pain Balm
for rheumatism, lame back, pains in the
side and chest; and Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Ciarrhoea Remedy for bowel
complaints. These medicines have been
in constant use in Iowa for almost quar-
ter Of century. The people have learned
that they are articles of great worth and
merit. and unequaled by any other. They

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED


by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portions of the ear. There is
only cne way to cure deafness. and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachiau Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have q
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out Of ten are caused
by catarrh, Vhich is nothing but an in

THAT TIRED FEELING.

Nobody is particularly anxious to
spend their money. Everybody has

and it takes money to do it. A per-
son is not apt to look cheerful over
the prospect of spending money.
Lots of buying is done with a long
face. This is all wrong; we offer q
change for the better.
You Feel Relieved-The

shows you that you are on the right
track. No mistake about this being

You wake up to the fact that you
lave gotten into the right store.
The Feeling Grows-When
you commence to go into details.
You feel as if the goods were bought
on purpose for you. No trouble to
make satisfactory selection. 1t
gets down to a question which is the
most satisfactory.
Trouble is Forgotten
When you learn our prices. They
are always at the low water mark.
We don't give goods away-we can't.
We can sell goods very low-we do.
This is a fact. We might brag about
it, but what's the use? A word to
the wise is sufficient. It's as true as
truth that we sell goods cheap. We
prove it.
Happiness is Supreme

LESS than you expected to pay. We
are treating our customers to TINS
kind of a surprise every day. We
sell you a good article and let you

 ..I cannot tell you how much enjoy my success" she said, with a quick change of tone. Ut was all so unex- pected and so complete. Yes; it was my first play, but it will not be my last. l am already engaged on another. and the managers seem anxious to secure my work. I think a good deal of my success was due to my having been on the stage at one time, and having thus obtained a thorough technical knowledge of stage work. I began by writing novels, two of which were pub lished; and, of course, I tried writing for the newspapers. We all do," Miss Bascom added. with an amused smile; "but am sure now that my talent is for dramatic writing, and shall make it my life work

ing the house for weeks iM New York, it was sent out on an equally suceess- ful tour of the western cities. Mrs. Madeline Lucette Ryley, the auihor of the play, is q beautiful. vivaeious woman, and an accomplished actress, as well as Il clever playwright
 Speaking of Christopher, Jr" Mrs. Ryley said in a recent interview: "I wrote the play in six weeks. and was six years in finding q manager to pro- duce it. 1 think it has been in the hands of some 50 different managers Sometimes it was too long, sometimes too short, sometimes too light. aud again too heavy. It is really astcnisn-
 ng, the variety of faults of which one simple little play is capable. No one who has not tried it can possibly un- derstand how difficult it is to get play accepted. Managers are afraid of new playwrights, especially women You are sure, if you are just beginning. to present a melodrama the season for farees, or a farce when tragedy is the fad; or again, if the character of the play is adapted to the ficlle public you have probably put too many men and women in the story, or made toe many scenes, and that means enormous ex- pense in production. And last of all. you may succeed in every other par tieular and yet fail utterly from lack of knowledge of technique. or what is bet ter known as stage business.' A play is not finished when it is written. The first act is to get it accepted, the second to get it produced and the third to se- cure | public.
 "Of course" she continued, "a wom- an who has been an actress has an ad- vantage from the start. She will under stand what important matters exits and entrances are, and not leave them to the imagination of the manager to whom she presents her play She will know by experience that long mono logues tire an actor and bore an au- dience, and above all she will know that when manager tells her that he wants an original play, he only means conventionality tricked out in a new froek. A playwright who wishes to Bdln the sympathy or hef audience quickly will make q point of drawing her characters from life. A good plan is to keep a character book in which you note down interesting people and their peculiarities. All the characters in Christopher, Jr." are people whom 1 have known, although, of course. they do not know it,' Mrs. Ryley added with quizzical smile.

It was a pigeon which pitched about for a moment in the upper air currents and then slanting to the west glided away and was plotted out against the suns disk.
 A turn in the road brought us to bridge guarded by q dozen sunburnt fantassins, and further on we passed some men of an engineer battalion dig ging holes in potato field. They went at it with an enthusiasm which seemed to me unwarranted, the thermometer being at ST and potatoes cheap. But our driver said they knew then busi- ness, emphasizing his words with a "Fichtre!" as be threw his leaders back on their launches in time to escape utter annihilation from a flying bat tery which plunged out of a lane at right angles to our road. Guns, cais- sons, troopers succeeded each other like cars Of an express train. A streak of black and scarlet, streak of silver, and they were gone, leaving our ears ringing and our eyes blurred
 The sun touched the horizons edge as we galloped into the white poplar bordered military road which leads to Montmedy. Before us lay q curious round hill. It was the fortress of Mont medy. solitary rock in the plain.
 When our diligence rolled into the main street of the village, the host of the Lion dor came out to welcome us. In the kitchen doorway stood an otfi- cer.

 learned that the fortress of Mont medy was one of the great frontier bulwarks, but that it was none of my business how many guns or of what calibre it contained. There are parts or the fortress forbidden to all except the eommandant and few high off, cers, parts forbidden to everyone cx- cept the garrison, and still other parts forbidden to foreigners and natives alike What was left I might see.
 The conversation ranged from the spring maneuvers 10 the late agitation along the Russian frontier. It was re- ported that balloons coming from Ger many had been seen over the frontier Qualifications, and when fired upon. had, to the amazement of the Russians, returned, apparently against the very air currents which brought them.
 Jacques laughed and murmured, "Canard."
 De K said, turning to me: 'The balloon problem will be solved in Amer iea soon. The balloon of the future will move independent of air currents. It is very simple--a plane holding a light engine, a screw and steering gear-''
 ''Yery simple-oh, very simple" said Jacques, sareastically, my compli- ments to M. Maxim and vive les Etats Unis!''
 "oh, yes," I said, that's all very well for the future; but want to know what will prevent modern balloon from sailing right over this fortress and dropping a load of dynamite? I don't mean cigar-shaped machine like that experiment. of yours, La France but just an ordinary military balloon such as we see every few days floating over Paris? ?'
 Jacques enjoyed this.
 "Dear me, what a strategist you have become" he said, as we rose from the table and took our cigarettes to the porch.
 No; the question is perfectly ra- tional,' said De K, smiling; q don't know that anybody has entirely solved it--unless it be this master of military science, Jacques, who, to my mind, had better concern himself with his bandages."

are merely dispatch carriers. One got away, you noticed. But with the new field telephone, staff officers and order lies will have little to do in carrying messages"
 ''Perhaps you have not heard about it," he continued, "but it is due to your clever American officers that it has been brought to it's present perfection. In Egypt Sir Garnet Wolseley used it in almost every engagement, and kept himself and staff in communication with the front. I think it worked with great success at Tel-el-Kebir. You see, heretofore it has been impossible for commanding officer to obtain rapid, constant, reliable information from the front, or yet to transmit his orders unless by signals or mounted orderlies. Signals may be read by the enemy; or derlies may be killed or captured. The field telegraph is not infallible. A shell may annihlate instruments and men. Battles of the future will be short and decisive, and 1t is of tbe most vital importance that communication

 He had risen while speaking, and arm in arm we sauntered down the path, shaded by scented thicllets and guarded by flower embowered cannon We spoke of ambulance Improvements and referred to the then recent inau- of X icipal ambulance system. AS we fin ished our descent and turned into the road, De K, of the artillery, fol- lowed by bull terrier, saluted us. 1 leaned down and patted the dog, which received my caresses with dignifed ap- probation.
 His name is Bibi," said Jacques; Ines one of our messengers"
 I had heard of the messenger dogs in use on the frontier, but had imagined them to be greyhounds.
 "Oh, we take all kinds of dogs" said De K, noticing my surprise. "Bibi there is one of our best scouts. You can never tell what a dog may develop in training for frontier service. A DldCk IJOOdlc, 1AllhCS etilu d SCeiS hound named Loup Garou,' are among our crack messengers"
 You see," said Jacques, ''dogs make splendid scouts as well as messengers. They can range wild territory with out making any noise, and with keen scent they detect the enemies piclSets long before men could possibly do so. The Austrians as well as we have dogs trained to carry each a hundred cart ridges to the skirmish line when am- intuition is needed; We expect to use them in searching thickets and uneTen ground for wounded, especially at night. They could go over battle field, after an engagement, to carry all sorts of little necessaries to the wounded. The dogs like it-take Bibi there-his nature is military to the stump of his tail"
