in the frail flower which languishes when
neglected, and is so easily destroyed. 1t
is pretty simile and almost as perfect as
pretty.
All women love flowers, and every woman
who grows them knows that their health
depends on daily care. Not alone are
water and sunshine necessary to the health
of the plant. Their leaves and roots must
be guarded from the parasites which soon
destroy the flowers beauty and undermine
its life.
If a woman would care for herself as she
does for her plants she would preserve her
beauty and retain her strength far beyond
the period when the average woman looks
old and feels older than she looks.

We know of no authority by which a

appeal, and stay the sentence imposed
upon him, by doing that which the law
does not provide for, instead of that
which the law does provide for. 1t is
not for persons accused and convicted
OF criminal offenses to choose tho
modes which suit them best of STAYING
the execution of sentences imposed

must adopt the mode specially provided
by law for that purpose. 1t seems TO
us. therefore, that. even If these fines

Supreme Court of South Carolina
September II, 1900.
A PERSON WHO PAYS A FINE I'M
POSED UPON HIM by a MAGIS-
TRATE. EVEN If PAID UNDER
PROTEST. CANNOT APPEAL
FROM THE DECISION.
Mitchell was fined by n justice of the
peace for violation of n town ordinance.
After the sentence he gave notice of
an appeal, but. instead of giving the
bond required by law to stay the exc
cution of the sentence he paid the fine.
The lower court dismissed his appeal
and he appealed to the Supreme Court
The court says:
The first. second and fourth grounds
of appeal impute error to the circuit
judge in holding that by the payment
of the fines imposed upon the defen-
dants the case was at an end, and
there was nothing left from which the
defendants could appeal. In this there
was no error. AS we have seen, the
statute provides how an appeal may
be taken in Il case like this. and makes
provision as to how Il party convicted
may avoid compliance With the SEN
tence pending his appeal, and we are
at loss to perceive by what authority
these defendants could substitute any
other mode of obtaining that end than
the mode specially provided by the
statute. There can be no doubt that an
appellate tribunal cannot and will not
do such n nugatory act as to hear an
appeal from sentence which mas al
ready been complied with. for that
would he to decide n mere speculative
question. and this. it has been fire.
quentiy held the court Will not do.
II is urged. however that the fines
here having been paid under protest.
takes this case out of the operation OF
the general rule. We do not think so.
In the fast place, there was nothing in
the record which was before the circuit
Judge to show that these fines were
paid under protest" but, on the CON
trary, the record shows the reverse:
for in the return made TO the court Of
session by the town council 1t is ex-
pressly stated that one OF the defen-
dants paid his fine without being ar
rested and without objection" while
in the case Of the other defendant 1t is
simply stated that upon his arrest he
paid his fine and was released from
custody. But as the circuit judge
states in his judgment that the case
was heard by him on "an agreed state
ment of facts made orally. one of
which was that the fines were paid
under protest, we will waive this point,
