The Temperance Lecture That Counts.
Lutte p. Bowen, the newspaper man
who was killed in Montana a few days
ago was not the victim OF an accident.
He committed suicide. He remarked
a few days ago that he had not drawn
a sober breath since June, and then
he naturally placed himself where a
train could u over him and spoil
him. Old Booze got him. Years ago
he used to be a moderate drinker. He
could toy with the flowing bowl or let
il alone. No man ever had a greater
contempt for the drunkard than he,
and he used to talk quite often about
il being an easy thing to govern the
appetite for liquor. But Old Booze
got him. Thousands of young men
pride themselves upon being able to
treat Old Booze as a casual acquain-
lance, permitting no undue familiarity.
Sooner or later Old Booze will gather
them all in. He has great staying
powers. He has infinite patience

The pay Of a private soldier in

in time of peace it is only $13..
The pay of first sergeant is $50
in time of war, and $25 in time of
peace, and the pay of other non

A farmer of Orangeburg coun-

voted an acre of his cotton land
to sugar cane, from which he
made syrup. He has recently
completed his harvest, with the
result that he has 500 gallons of
excellent syrup from the one acre.
Should he sell his syrup for 25
cents a gallon-a low price for a
fair article-he would have 1925

not possibly have produced 1925
worth of cotton on the land, or en-
twice the amount of land.
