A NOBLE INSTITUTION.

The Thornwell Orphanage, under the
presidency of its founder, Rev. DR.. Jacobs,
Is an institution for the education and
technical training of orphan boys and
girls. 1t is located in Clinton, South Car
DINA. Nine handsome stone cottages
house the children. In addition there are
school buildings, general dining-hall, in
dustrial and technical schools, library and
shops. a farm Of an hundred acres gives
the boys opportunity for learning that
business.
These orphans represent fifteen differ
ent States,-(every Southern State), and
their parentage was Of eleven different de-
nominations Of Christians. They are re-
ceved at the tender age Of six, and after
being taught TO take care Of themselves,

The cost Of support is comparatively
small Five dollars will board, clothe
and school a boy or girl for a month.
This could not be done, were IL not that
the young people are a busy set and
practice self-help. The money that cares for
them is that which each benevolent individ-
ual gives. as moved by his own heart, or

SEASONABLE HINTS.
Guard Your Health in Fall aud Early
Winter.

A change from warm to cold Is always
attended with more danger than from
cold 10 a warm temperature, hence the
greater mortality from lung and throat
diseases at this season of the year as
compared with spring.
The best protection against colds Is not
so much in extra clothing as in good d.
gestion.
II the digestion and circulation are good,
colds will be unknown.
Poor digestion causes poor circulation of
the blood, and when In this condition Sc
we're colds are contracted on the slightest
provocation.
People who make a regular practice Of
taking Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after
meals are free from colds, simply because
their digestion is perfect, the heart strong
and regular. and the whole system forth
fed against disease.
IL requires little argument TO convince
anyone that the best safeguards against
colds. pneumonia and changes OF tempera-
ture is a good stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals are dissolved, and, mingling with
the food. cause II TO be promptly digested
and assimilated; they do this because
they contain nothing but harmless diges-
tive elements. which digest meat. eggs
and other food even when the stomach
itself Is weak and faced

Pianlsts come and go, each one has a
following Of a sort, some large and some
small, but Paderewski stands supremely
alone; he is the Colossus who is included
among the seven wonders of the modern
musical world. Pederewski made his ap-'
pearance at a favorable moment. In the
beginning of the present decade there
was no great pianist looming large in the
public eye. Rubenstein wes the last of
the giants. and he had practically retired
from the platform. The golden fruit was
hanging ripe on the tree. although 1t was
not for the first conner to pluck and eat:
only he who was favored Of the gods
could touch the magic bough that guard
ed its treasure az securely as the belt of

ure 1.-THE as a willow wand, came within
view. though at the beginning only few
realized his power. He wOoed and won,
and now he leaves the wooing TO his pa
irons. When he comes the sunshine OF
popularity radiates his brow; there Is a
scramble for places. no matter what the
price OF the seats may be- and his ad-
mirers sit at his feet as though he were
in sooth a god.
That Paderewski will achieve new
laurels on his forthcoming tour in this

METHODIST SECRETS
The Presiding Elders Joke on Dear
Brother-Didn't Like Hog Meat.

IbIOlltE-ttltiIl i1iht tfo~p -'t"'s
A prominent Methodist minister yesterday
was asked jocuarly to tell where he was
going next year. II started him in an an
ecdotal vein, and he told the story Of two
Methodist brethren who once resided in
Richmond. One was lame and the other
a confirmed tobacco-chewer. The iame
one was the presiding elder The tobacco
chewer was very anxious to know where
he was going and the presiding elder
knew it. While Conference was in ses-
sion Brother Presiding Elder limped up
the aisle and tapping his masticat.ng
friend on the shoulder. beckOned him TO
follow. He led the way to a secluded
hallway. and raising his voice to meet
the requirements Of a deaf ear, shouted In
very deliberate way:
THE Bishop tells me he thinks he Will
send YOU somewhere
with that he limped back leaving his
worthy brother astonished at such mean
clerical joke.
The same minister tells Of a venerable
tiend who had always manifested a
great antipathy for hog meat. lie used
to say:
Il wouldn't eat hog meat for anything.
and none Of you know the reason why
The curiosity of the younger man got
the better Of him one day. and he asked
his elder 10 tell him why he was so oppos-
ed to hog meat.
The younger man was taken aside and
asked:
"Can you keep a secret?"
Certainly" was the response.
"Well. 50 can l." was the rei0nder. and
the mystery of the hog meat IS yet un-
solved.
