demic typhoid fever that was raging at
Clemson college, and will so report to the

The announcement of the resignation of
DIT Charles Manly from the office of pres
ident Of Furman University occasioned
much surprise. The resignation of DR..
Manly is due to a friendly difference be-
tween him and the trustees For years
ne has supplemented his salary by serv-
ing the churches at Seneca and Bolton.
The trustees, at a recent meeting. passed
a resolution requesting that he give all
his time to the university. Thereupon he
promptly rendered his resignation. Dr.
Manly is mentioned for the presidency OF
the South Carolina College, made vacant
by the resignation of DR.. Woodrow

Clemson from Kershaw county where he
has been for some days investigating the
cause Of the epidemic Of hog cholera

river and fatten from the nuts They raise
hogs in large numbers and their chief
market is Columbia. J. S. Dunno lost 125

THEY ARE NOT so COOL.
Turf PIungers Are Much Like other
MortalS.

From the New York Press.
Ever since the great American plungers
Of the turf became recognized celebrities
and legitimate subjects TO be pointed out
to visiting country relatives. the public
has loved 70 picture them standing calm
and emotionless, winning or losing vast
fortunes without as much as the culver
Of an eyelash. Sometimes the plunger
may stand white and emotionless,' or
lean indolentiy against pillar in the
grand stand" while fortunes are being
iuggled before him. But whether calm or
white. or leaning indolently against a pill
lar, he must be emotionless and his field
glasses must be as steady as his after
dinner coffee cup.
That is the way 1t is In fiction, and in the
public fancy. and precisely the way 1t Is
not on the turf and track.
Pittsburg PhN-that young plunger who
came suddenly out of the wllds of Penn

stand pillar where the animal that carries
his thousands Is racing before him. lie
even does not have regard enough for
popular tradition 20 betray a decent lack
OF emotion. Pittsburg Phl chews gum,
violently and at times spasmodically, and
his features are as far from calm and
repose as any fargone victim Of the habit.

boy, dressed up len city store clothes, and

MANY of the North American Indians were mag.
nifcent specimens of physical manhood. This was
due largely to their active outdoor life Neverthe-
less they had the wisdom to know that an active
life in the open air alone would not keep a man
healthy They had their medicine men, who gath.
cred herbs from field and forest and brewed decoc-
tons to assist the natural processes Of the various
vital organs
Modern civilized men do not as usual thing recog
nize the same necessity until il is too late. They
ignore medicine until they are within the grasp Of
some serious or fatal disease The time for a man
to begin taking medicine is when he begins to feel
out OF sorts II man is thoroughly well and healthy
he does not feel that way. If he does feel that way
he may be pretty sure that he is half sick When
he is half sick it does not take long before he Is
