and heed we'll this my friends: Observe
especially what qualities count for most
in public life. Is character becoming OF
greater or less Importance? Are the
men who obtain the highest posts In
the nation (or state) men Of whom lr
private life, and irrespective Of party
competent judges speak with genuine
respect? Are they Of sincere convic-
tions, Of consistent lives and Of indis-
, putable integrity? 1t Is by observing
this moral current that you can best
cast the horoscope Of nations. Now
these are the words end the thoughts
of men who have made constant
steady, scientific study Of government
Of human history and human Develop
ment. 1t is wise. therefore, to attend
their testimony. And we saw IL veri-
fed when effervescent, glory-loving
France went down in humiliation and
defeat before sturdy, duty-loving Eng
land The people Of this county and
state this year are called upon to take
their stand as to these principles. And
let us remember the former days-those
days of which the distinguished Amerl-
can historian, George Bancroft, Of Mas
sachusetts, could and did truly write:
1.-The public men Of South Carolina were
ever ruled by their sense Of honor and
felt a stain upon 1t as wound" 1t is
that which has made our history glori-
Gus. And may we strive now as never
before to bring our commonwealth back
into the spirit Of Calhoun and McDuf-
fe, Hayne and Hampton. And let us
further remember that when we cast
our vote 1t affects not only our county
and state, but also the very principles
Of democratic government.
AS we review the history Of govern
ments we find that the great lesson OF
the past is, what makes a nation happy
and great and keeps 1t so. Is high senss
Of public duty, public responsibility and
honor, civic righteousness and that ven-
Grafton for character which Is manifest
ed in the election to office Of only those
men who possess the sterling qualities
Of honesty, courage, faithfulness and
dutifulness. While what ruins king
doms and lays cities fiat Is disregard OF
public spirit, lack Of civic righteous
ness, want Of interest on the part OF
the individual citizen in the common
affairs Of city, county, state and ma
ton, and that unworthy and dangerous
principle and practice which leads men
to strive to place in public office other
men because Of personal consideration
because he is a nice, sociable and jovial
fellow and without regard to fitness
and character.
May God pour out upon our people
at this time the spirit Of understanding
the spirit Of wisdom and the spirit OF
true patriotism that we may desire no
bly, and choose Wisely as to our rulers
and representatives.

Heard the news, boys?" asked
Cloyne, stopping a moment In front of
our tent. Hamilton has been pro-
moted-a big jump, too, for he's made
first lieutenant"
"Its an insult to the army" exclaim-
ed BraInard. "Hamilton's "a No, |
won't say what / was going to. but he
always lodges fighting"
"Yes, so our captain told the colonel,
or so they say. but the colonel replied:
1T may be that he's no stomach for
fighting. but he knows how to care for
the stomachs of men who do fight, so
he's to be regimental commissary and
feed the regiment as well as he's fed
his company. In war bellies count for
as much as bullets"
There's something to that" said
Brainard. land I'm glad Hamilton's
found his proper place. That isn't all.
III go at once and congratulate him
on it."
"Don'tw said Cloyne. putting an arm

ally.
1t takes a good many pins to keep the
people Of the United States supplied for
a year. The Merriam census figures
out that more than seven billion ordi-
nary toilet pins were used in 1900; of
hairpins. 100000 were consumed; to
these should be added almost as many
more safety pins.
These figures are derived from the
annual production, which is assumed to
be about equal to the annual consump-
ton. There is a capital employed in
this manufacture Of $3.236,15S. Most of
the factories are in Connecticut. A
years crop Of pins Is worth $S34,O54.
The pin has a history which goes
back to the Garden Of Eden. It's pro-
totype In nature Is the thorn. The
most ancient relics Of prehistoric man
are found accompanied by pins, made
from bone, ivory, bronze, copper and
iron. From the lacustrine stations in
Switzerland alone more than 10000 pins
have been found in Egyptian and Scan
dinavian tombs. Among the Anglo
Saxons and Britons loops, ribbons and
hooks and eyes are found in silver and
other metallic skewers, and finally the
indispensable pin.
In early days most of the pins used
In this country were imported, and dur
ing the war Of the Revolution the price
went up to a dollar a paper. They
were scarce at that. 1t was then, and
during the war of 1912, that the MAX
Ing of pins in this country began in a
crude way. DR.. ]. I. Howie is the faith
er of the American pin industry as we
know it today. In 1880 he began the
study of the problem of pin-making
machinery, making pins for the public
and fortune for himself.
The pin industry created a new de-
mand for stale beer, which is used to
clean the pins before they are plated
with tin.-Washington correspondence
