An exchange suggests the following
novel innovations on the old style ideas
of economical housekeeping 1t says:
For the past two months our better
half and baby have been visiting rela-
tives, and we have been keeping house.
In our two months practice and study,
we have discovered that women use
Iessly wear themselves out keeping
house. We find in our experience that
many dollars can be saved by jRdicious
management. To sleep in a bed for two
or three weeks without disturbing it
makes it conform to the natural posi-
5ion Of the body and sleep more rest
full. Food is just as nutritious and
wholesome when eaten from the same
dishes several times, as when half an
hour'is spent after each meal in wash
ing them. We find it saves to kick our
old papers under the bed instead Of
spending twenty minutes folding them
up and putting them in the paper rack.
It saves fuel and coal oil to spend our
evenings down town with the boys. We
could 90 on and enumerate many eco.
nomical and time saving features IN
housekeeping, but will save our new
new found theories on practical house
work for our wife when she returns.

him an able, honorable, honest legisla-

son of W. J. Aspinwall, Barrister, Of
London. At thirteen the romahtic sea
lured him from home, and he served as
midshipman from 1872 to 1875, and then
gradCsted a3 an officer in the British
Merchant Service. Shortly after this
he gave up his commission and went to
Bombay, India, where he was success
fQl as a coffee and tea planter. He
came to the United States on account
Of i'll health in 1885, and first went 10

Of that company ever. since. At pres

AspiuwaN becamoa a citizen Of the UAi-
Ted States, and two years later he was
elected by handsome maj ajority to rep

We give considerable space this week
to correspondent from Holbrook, Oh
the subject of issuing bonds to build a
court house and jail, and depicting
some of the results that might follow
/ too lavish expenditure of money on
such building. While we are Of the
opinion that he has colored The thing
somewhat too highly, exaggerated the
probable consequences, perhaps; still
his notes of warning are not without
the range of possibilities. At any rate
some OF his suggestions are worthy of
careful and serious consideration at
the hands Of our Supervisors. IF, as
he says, we have to pay our proportion
of the Barth Judgment, in addition to
the $4,000 for the court house, it will
saddle nearly $4,000 more of indebt-
edness on US, and we are now stagger-
ing under about as heavy a load as we
can carry. 1t is we'll, sometimes, to
make haste slowly-to look before you

Corbett once more, and is willing to
bet the Australian $2,500 that he will
not accept the proposition and won't

Trade Papers.

1t is strange that SO few country newspa-
pers take their own medicine, which they OF
right recommend 80 freely to others. Out In
Alaska, for instance, the country editors urge
q upon the people the necessity, or Importance,
Of taxing the local paper. which Is printed
especially for their benefit. In all Of this
kind of talk we readily concur, and believe
that the citizens of every county in Alaska
should take their local papers. We go furth-
er and say that we believe the local newspa-
pers of Alaska would find 1t profitable to SUBJ
scribe for some Of the many trade journals
which are printed especially for the benefit Of
printers.
The Inland Printer, the Printer Journalist,
the Newspaper Maker, and others are print
ed monthly. The 'Newspaperdom' is print
ed weekly. These and other publications Of
the same kind are worth their weight in gold
to every enterprising editor In Alaska.
We offer no advice to oanybody. but we state
what we believe to be a fact namely: That
the reception of a trade journal will be of
great benefit to all good printer and editors,
no matter whether they live in Alaska or
South Carolina. Even II they contained
nothing that would be OF value in Itself, yet
the artistic printing is a thing OF beauty
which would we'll repay the cost of subscrlp-
tion.

Monuments-SecessiOn Hill.

The country seems TO be about crazy on the
subject of monuments. The inventive genius
of the people seems to have been taxed to the
utmost. II would be difficult 10 find great
people who had not a history and whose lane
did not contain monuments. It's very nice
to build monuments. The act OF taking
leading part in the building OF monument
by public contributions always brings one or
more persons prominently before the people,
This is one good reason for building monu-
ments. And then the presence ofa monu-
ment may be an ornament TO the town In
which 1t is located.
While the people are casting about Tor
worthy or notable objects that need monu-
ments, we might be pardoned If the Press and
Banner suggests that the spot on which the
first secession meeting was held should be
marked SO that future generations might
read the inscription which would state the
first secession meeting OF 1860 was held there,
and that the last Radical Rally was held
there In 1876. In future years when the par
ticipate.s in those historic and stirring scenes
shall have passed away, the generations then
living might view the sacred spot.
Il monument on this spot, which should be
inscribed with the historic facts, might well
be dedicated 10 the valor of the Confederate
soldier who yielded up his life in the sublime
struggle.
Think OF it, and let any monument, which
Abbeville may build, serve the double pur-
pose as indicated.

The Cotton Plant.

The printing committee have awarded the
printing OF the Cotton Plant to Col. James
A Hoyt of Greenville. There were number
OF bidders for the work, any one OF whom
were competent and capable.
In going back to Greenvllle the Cotton
Plant will be at home in the hands OF Col.
onel Hoyt. A few years ago, the Cotton
Plant, we believe. was Colonel Hoyt's per.
sonal property, but when the reform move
came along that paper was needed, not as an
agricultural organ, but as a political engine
Colonel Hoyt not being willing to diverge
the Cotton Plant from its legitimate sphere
sold 1t.
Now, after political career of several years
in which the life has been about crushed out
oft, 1t will, like the prodgal, return to It's
formerihome; and under the vine and fig tree
OF It's former guardian, may 1t take on new
life, and be. as 1t was in the days gone by, SC
valuable publication that no up-to-date far
mer can afford to do without It, South Caro-
lima needs good agricultural paper.
Under Colonel Hoyt's management the
Cotton Plant reached the zenith OF its useful.
ness and power, and we see no reason why
that publication againunder his management
should not assume It's former important
warm place in the hearts OF the people.
While 1t is trne that the Cotton Plant would
have been safe In the hands OF any one ol
the bidders, yet 1t seems natural that the
wayward child should depart from its former
devious ways and return home. We congratu'
late the committee on the selection Of their
pub Usher. and trust that he may bring 1t up
to its former high standard.

A Good Friend at Greenwood.

Mr.. A. ]. Sproles. who is perhaps the oes'
newspaper writer in this section of the state
was in town one day last week. Like many
other good newspaper men, he has found
better employment. and has laid aside his
pen and pencil and taken up the grip. Ev'
cry reader OF the Press and Banner remem !.
bers his honest straightforward way OF writ
ing. His words, like bullet from rifle,
went straight TO the mark. He, in all his
writings never struck below the belt, but al
ways directed bis blows straight from the
shoulder. While those who may have been
in the wrong had reason to fear his censure.
yet no good man, nor any good name, ever
suffered at his hands. He had the ability to
discuss the subjects which attracted his at
tention, and had no reason to resort to the
weakling's refuge-the assaulting of charac'
ter, and the charging OF motive. Viewed
from the stan dpoint OF the Press and Banner,
it is a pity that SO good man as A. j.
Sproles Ia not at the head Of newspaper. but
the conditions are such that he could not ar
ford to fool away his time on county news
paper.

whose Country Is This?

1t seems that foreigners and liquor stillers
are seeking to take charge OF South Carolina
We are OF this opinion because OF the
names Of the men who have brought Into
the courts so many suits TO force passage for
their product into this state. Liquor dealers
In Atlanta are now suing the Southern Rail-
way to force them to carry their liquor into
South Carolina.
Foreign liquor dealers declare that they
will send LIQUOR to Spartanburg, at next 10
no profit at all, as long as the dispensary law
stands
Following the example OF Tillman In ls9o'
the haters Of the restraints Of the dispensary
law, and the friends Of the liquor dealers
and barrooms, are making charges against
public officials.
1t Is true that the liquor men OF the state
are citizens and have all the priviledges OF
any other citizen, but they have no more
rights and priviledges than others.
Are the foreign liquor dealers, with the aid
of their agents, to take charge OF South Caro-
lima as conquered province.
There can be but little doubt that they
have formed trust, or combined, to over
throw the laws Of this State. 1t therefore, be-
hooves the people to stand firm to their con-
victions, while refusing to yield their man
hood and sobriety to the foreigner who has
no other Interest In us than as they may find
q market for his liquor.
