The next session. OF tho south
Carolina legislature is rapidly ap-
preaching and tho members thereof
arc gotting their bulls in shape for
consideration. A great many of
these bills will die in the commit
teo rooms, some will cease to exist
before tho General Assembly ad-
iourns and few will become law.
Each member feels that he must do
something for his constituency, and
hence the multitude of bills that
90 upon tho calendar. Too much
is cXpcctcd Of tho members by the
the people, and in tho effort to
moeL. that expectation, much val
liable limo is squandcrod in the
Introduction and consideration Of
unimportant bills. Yet the NOM
bers have great responsibility upon
them which many people never
seem TO appreciate. Often the
voters appear to concern themsol-
ycs more about the selection Of
men for all the Offices than they do
for suitable members to make
their laws.
In scl.sc The delegation in tho legis-
laturo is the guardian Of the coun"
tvs interests. No matter Of taxa
tion can lie imposed upon tho poo
pc, unit! il has been passed upon
by the delegations in the lcgisla-
turc. Often great credit is given
to county boards for reform IN
county administration, when the
delegation IN tho Legislature is ell
titled to moro. Tho members of|
the lcgis latuYo have tho opportu-
nifty to study and learn tho condi-
ton Of county affairs and are in n |
position to detect and correct any
mlsmanascmcnt or extravaganza
in the administration Of tho samo.
They hold high, honorable and re-
sponsib!o places in public life, and
tho people have q right to expect
their best service, but when that is
rendered the people should be sat
isicd.

broken stone some finer material must
be introduced into the structure of the
roadway, and this material is usually
called binder or by some roadmakers
filler"
There used to be much contention re-
garding the use of binding material in
the making of a macadam road but 1t
is now conceded by nearly all practical
and experienced roadmakers, both in
Europe and America that the use Of a
binding material is essential to the
proper construction Of good macad-
am road. 1t adds to its soliditY, in
sures tightness by closing all Of the
spaces between the loose irregular
stones and binds together the macad-
am crust in way that gives it firm
ness, elasticity and durability.
Binding material to produce the best
results should be equal in hardness
and toughness with the road stone.
The best results are therefore obtain
ed by using screenings or spalls from
the broken stone used.j Coarse sand or
gravel can sometimes be used with i'm
punity as binder, but the wisdom Of
using loan or clay is very much ques-
toned. When the latter material is
used for a binder, the road is apt to
become very dusty in dry weather and
sticky, muddy and rutty in wet
weather.

Fishing For a Drink.

A guide who has done more or less
plug fishing on Mooselookmeguntic
lake says he can get drink Of nice,
cold water when he is anchored on q
lake, provided the water is deep
enough. For deep fishing it is customa-
ry to sound for clay bottom before
casting anchor, and our informant
claims that he can sound to secure q
cool drink. He ties weight to the
bottom of his coffee bottle, and with
the string tied also to the cork he
drops it to the bottom; then by quick
jerk pulls the cork, the bottle fills with
cold, clear water, and he has only to
pull it in.-Phillips Photograph.

Fat night alone in a room, reading or

and see presently across the table III
the other side of the room door open
ing slowly? That's a hair raising ex-
perience You don't know by what
means the knowledge that 1t was OPEN
ing was first conveyed to you, but you
see it now, opening slowly and steadi-
" and silently, and you get up aud
grasp the chair in which you have
been sitting and stand up, with the
table between you and him for fur
ther protection, and wait for him, but
he doesn't come.
"Then you so around to the door, 1t

of its own weight when you open it
wider, and, holding to It, YOU look
around the door jamb into the hall.
Silence there, perfect and complete;
nobody there; those were ghostly fin
gers, If any, that turned the knob.
And so you shut the door securely and
go back to your reading.
Presently you find the door open
again, but this time there lis an air Of
vacancy about it, and now you realize
what it all means. The back Of the
catch bolt that you turn with knob
is worn off little, rounded or the
metal frame around the socket into
which the bolt enters may be worn or
both. Or it may be the door has
shrunk or the jamb has drawn away
from it, so that only the tip end of the
bolt catches in the socket and has q
constant tendency to work free. The
slightest shaking or Earring starts it,
and gradually it works itself clear Of
the socket, and then, if it happens to
be hung just so. the door slowly opens.
"And there you are, and it is all very
simple when you come to know about
1t, but it's never altogether agreeable.
You never really get used to the door
that opens. New York Sun.

To Get a Vacuum.

Professor Dewar's achievement in liq-
uefying hydrogen has led to the dis
covery of an easy method for obtain
ing an almost perfect vacuum, and
that in single minute. When glass
tube, filed with air and closed at one
end, has its open end dipped into a cup
Of liquid hydrogen, the intense cold
condenses the air into a kind of snow
which settles to the bottom. If, then,
the upper part Of the tube, from which
the solicited air has fallen, is removed
by heating and sealing it off, it be-
comes vacuum chamber so free from
air that it is difficult to force an cleo
trio current through it.
