Opening a Sluice Gate

Relieves dam of a superabundance of water
The bowels are a kind OF suice gate of the
system, and serve to carry off superfiuities
which would otherwise food and damage it.
Constipation otstructs this avenue of escape.
Hostetier's Stomach Bitters opens it and re-
lieves the system. This it does gently and
gradually. but completely, and does not. like
a violent purgative, GRIPPE convulse and drench
the bowels, and leave them weak and unfit tor
efficient service afterwards. On the contrary,
it invigorates and regulates at the sane time
that it relieve them. 1t also strengthens and
imparts activity to the stomach, liver and kid
neys. counteracts a tendency to rheumatism
aud invigorates the nervous system. For the
relief aud prevention of chills and fever,
bilious remittent, dumb ague and ague cake,
it has no peer among modern remedies.
Persons convalescing suffering from the
debility or inilrmities of age find il highly
beneficial.

CHARLEsTON's POSTOFFICE.
A Quaint and Ancient Structure With ar
Interesting History.

"Among the quaint old structures of
Charleston our old postoffice building
takes the lead in historic interest, - said
James S. Murdoch, u leading wholesale
merchant of the Carolina metropolis. Mr..
Murdoch is here with II delegation OF his
townsmen to ask congress to make q mod
est appropriation so as to donate the
aforesaid antique to the city
The old postoflico, said he, "was
built of brick imported from England in
1867 under the direction Of committee Of
the colonial assembly. Its leading mem
bers were John Rutledge, Henry Laurons
and Thomas Lynch, who later took u
prominent part in the formation of the re-
public, and whose names will be found
among tho signers OF the Declaration of
Independence. During the occupation Of
Charleston by the British it was used as II
prison and between 60 and 20 of the best
citizens were confined there before their
removal to st. Augustine, Fla. In the
number was Colonel Isaac Haynes of the
celebrated family of that name. In re
venge for the execution of Major Andre
Haynes was led out from prison and suf-
ferod the death penalty by order of Colonel
BGlfour then in command, without tho
fornlality Of trial.
"In 1890. when General Washington
visited Charleston, it was in this Same old
building that he was entertained and "A
splendid ball was given in his honor by
the wealthy planters Of the state, cooper
ating with the town people. With such
historic associations surrounding it, our
people naturally take a deep interest in
their old postofflce, and the idea is to keep

TIE SMART TELLER.
His StratagCm For Securing an Increaac
Of His Salary.

The paying teller refused to honor the
check and went to the cashier.
They want that $500 1000" he said
"What are you going to do about it?'
Pay it, of course said the cashier.
"You have the money"
Eyes; L Aave the money, but ! don't
propose to pay it,
What do you mean, STRIP the cashier
exclaimed. at is your business to pay IT,
l have given you the money, ana the
check must be paid"
Mr.. -, / am working here on sal
airy of $2, 600 q year l have asked for al
increase, and the directors think am get
ting enough. cannot agree with them.
1t is true that l have the $500, 900, but
intend to keep it. l have not been treated
right. and must take this course to get
my deserts"
A long argument followed, which was
referred to the board of directors which
was hastily called together. Tho teller
WAS ordered before their majesties. He
admitted all that the cashier had said OF
him and added:
"Gontlemen, ! am serious. / have the
5000. 600 safe. You may do what you
please. If you take the matter to tho
courts. the most l can get is ten years.
shall leave the 'penitentiary at the age OF
40 worth $500, 900. If l remain with you
at my present salary, won't be worth a
cent. Do AS you will. Give me $4,000 :.
year, or send me up"
He was hard customer to deal with,
and they quickly agreed that if he woul!
return the $500, 600 and pay the check they
would do as he wished. He made them
sign bond, releasing him in every posi-
Bile way and guaranteeing him IS, 600 .
year for 80 years.
One of the directors, an old, gray haired
fellow who was president of the insurance
company, said:
"Young man, you are too smart to be
paying teller of Il bank. Come down to
my Office, and l will give you $50, 600 !.

He went home, got the $500, 600, re
turned it to the bank and went into thc

the company everyone was having a
good time.
One of the best features of the Fourth
