One of the Old customs is for people
to Indicate their business upon their
visiting cards. You will receive the
card Of Lawyer Jones or Banker Smith
or Notary Johnson or Music Professor
Brown or GrOsSerer (which means
wholesale merchant Furgcson or Geol-
ogist Thompson. and if Il man ever
held an office it is customary to indi-
cate that fact upon his card. \ bUrgo-
master is always burgomaster. con-
sui is always consul and an alderman
always an alderman. The prefSes
''Hon." and Mr." are seldom used. and
the title, whether commercial or pro-
fessionai. is observed in conversation
in the same way. 1t would sound rath-
er queer for any one in the United
States to ask, "Wholesale Merchant
MacVeagh. will you kindly pass the
butter:' Or Banker Hutchinson. will
you escort Frau Board of Trade Oper
ator Jones to the table" or Director
of Music Ziegfeld, ! wish you good
day. but that is the custom in Swe-
den, and it is observed by children as
we'll as grown people. 4 lisping child
will approach 4 guest. make q pretty
little bob courtesy and say, Good
morning, Chief Justice Of Supreme
Court Smith," or Good night, Repre-
sentative In Congress Brown"
1t is customary also for ladies to
print their maiden names upon their
visiting cards in smaller type under
their married names, particularly if
they have a pride of family and want
people to know their ancestIy.-Chica-
go Record.

HER CAR FARE.
She Had 1t With Her, and Yet She
Could Not Pay 1t.

She Had 1t With Her, and Yet She
Could Not Pay 1t.
She really intended paying her fare
when she boarded the street car, for
she had 10 certs saved from the bar
gain day scrimmage, but the conductor
happened to be a gentleman and by
paying the fare himself saved her a
weary walk to the family residence.
She had the 10 cents with her when
she boarded the car, and she still had
the money when the conductor came
through on his trip for fares, but she
did not pay the conductor. 1t was all
the motorman's fault. With her arms
full Of bundles, she was compelled to
hold the ten cent piece between her
teeth. The motorman turned on the
current, the car gave jerk, and she
gave . start.
Fare, please" said the conductor,
and she turned pale.
"I can't pay you," she stammered,
going from white TO red and from red
back to white.
"But l can't carry you for nothing, y
demonstrated the conductor.
tI know it, but can't help it. had
the money when 1 got on the car, but
but swallowed 1t.
A crouch on the other side Of the
car snorted q rude laugh, but the con-
ductor was a gentleman, and without
another word be pulled the register
rope for another fare and passed on
st. Paul Globe.

The Civil War Mortality.

Commenting on the loss Of life in the
civil war from various causes, General
Francis V. Greene says in Scribner's
Magazine:
"How paltry seem the 5000 killed
and wounded in the war Of 1912 or
the war in Mexico or the war with
Spain compared with the 1900 at
Shiloh, $4,000 at the Chickahominy,
$4,000 at Antietam, the same at Fred
ericksburg, 10000 at Charlottesville,
$4,000 at Gettysburg, 10000 at Chick
amauga, $1,000 in the Wilderness and
$4,000 at Spottsylvania! The grand
aggregate Of destruction fairly stag
gers the imagination, accustomed as
we have been for more than q genera
ton to the dgures-93,000 killed by
bullets, $4,000 killed by disease, 25,00O
dead from other causes, a grand total
of 100000, or about one in nine Of eT-
cry man who wore the uniform"

An QnaI Worth q Million.

The most famous opal in history was
that which was worn in a ring by the
Roman senator Nonius in the day Of
the triumvirate. Its size equaled that
Of a medium sized hazelnut, yet its
beauty and brilliancy rendered it a
marvel among the dilettanti Of Rome,
especially when it was known that the
goldsmiths and money changers had
set its value at $1,000.000.
Mark Antony made overtures to No
MUS for its purchase, intending, it is
thought, to present it to Cleopatra, but
the senator refused to part with it and
for fear that it would be taken from
him by sheer force sought safety in
fight. Here history loses all trace OF
this famous gem, there being no rec
ord Of its transference from Nonius to
any Of his family.

Meals In Russia.

Among the common people there IS
no fixed time for eating meals. The
Russian eats when he is hungry, and
this is about six square meals a day.
He has at least dozen lunches, a lit
tie bit of salt fish or some caviare or a
piece Of bread and cheese, washed
down with a nip Of fiery vodki. He
never passes a station without glass
Of tea-rnarvelous tea, with thin
slice Of lemon floating in it. You get q
fondness for Russian tea and for
swear bemilked decoctions forever.
The table manners Of the Russian
such as you see in hotels and buffets-
are not pleasing. He sprawls with
outstretched elbows on the table and
gets his mouth down to his food rath-
er than raise the food to his mouth.
He makes Objectionable noises in his
throat. He has q finger bowl and
rinses his mouth as the rest Of US do
when cleaning our teeth in our bath
rooms. Then he sQuirts the water back
into the bowl. In time one may get
used to this.

The Neither Limbs al an Index to the
State of the Mind.
There are many indexes to the mind,
but I learned of new one the other
day when called to see busy man at
bis Office down on Broad street. When
entered the outer office, it was quite
evident that he was in, for could see
him through al open door leaning over
his desk quite intent on papers that
lay in front Of him. 7 spoke to the
clerk in attendance, whom know real
we'll, and asked that he announce me.
He glanced into the other room before
speaking.
"Wait minute or two" he said. "It
will be better, for he will have you
come in the moment say you are
here
I didn't quite understand what he
meant, but I took seat to wait a min
ute or two. I waited five Of them and
then spoke again.
"Wait until he crosses his legs" an
swered the clerk.
"IThat has that to do with it," I
asked.
Everything" he replied. "He doesn't
like to be disturbed when he is busy.
and know he is very busy because
he has his legs out straight. a man
never thinks hard with his legs cross
ed. AS soon a8his mind lets up a
little, then he straightens, crosses his
legs and is ready for visitors and n
chat. When his legs go down again,
it is time for the visitor to take his
leave. Just bear that in mind and see
if am not right"
AS he finished speaking up went the
legs, and was announced and receiv-
ed at once.-New York Herald. q

A SERPENT'S APPETITE.

reached the first boughs wh1l | saw
the snake approaching the tree. and it
climbed up behind me.
Higher and higher went. Higher
and higher came the serpent. My heavy
rubber boots were great drawback to
my climbing, so tried to get rid Of
them. I took one off and dropped it.
and just as I had the second in my
hand the snake reached me. and l, in
my desperation, tried to shield myself
with the rubber boot.

open and found, to our astonishment,
my rubber boot not in the least in

ak Returns
Office County Auditor
Clarendon County,
Manning. S. c., Dec. y, 1901.

The Auditors office will be open from
the first day of January, 1902, to the
twentieth day of February, 1902, to re-
ceive returns of real estate and per-
sonal property in Clarendon County for
the year 1902.
Taxpayers return what they own on
the first day of January, 1902.
All real estate and personal property
must be returned this year.
Assessors and taxpayers will enter
the first given name of the taxpayer IN
full. also make a separate return for
each party for the township the prop
erty is in. and where the taxpayers
owns realty, to insert the postotflce as
their place of residence, and those who
only own personal property, to give the
party's name who owns the land they
live on as their residence, which aids
the taxpayer as well as the County
Treasurer in making the collections
and preventing errors.
Every male citizen between the ages
of twenty-one and sixty years on the
first day of January, 1902, except those
incapable of earning a support from
being manned, or from other causes,
shall be deemed taxable polls. This
does not apply to Confederate soldiers
over fifty years OF age.
All the returns that are made after
the twentieth day of February will have
penalty of 80 per cent. added thereto
unless out of the county during the
time of listing. Not knowing the time
of listing is no excuse.
!. The assessing and collecting OF taxes
| is all done now in the same year, and
we have. to aggregate the number and
value of all the horses. cattle, mules,
etc.. and their value that there is in
the county. and have same on file in the
| COMPTROLLER Generals office by the
thirtieth day of June each year: And
from that time to the first day OF Octo-
Der each year the Auditor and Treas
urer's duplicate has to be completed
and an abstract of the work IN the
Comptroller's Office by that time, which
will show at glance that the Auditor
has no time to take in returns or do
; anything else much, between the first
dav of March and the first day of Octo-
Der each year but work on the books
and blanks. Therefore hope that all
taxpayers will do me the favor Of MAX
! inc their returns in time.

An Open Giver.

Earold's father was in the habit Of
giving dollar q Sunday to the church.
This was put in q numbered envelope
in the collection plate and the amount
credited to him on the church books.
Mr.. T. was away for the summer and
on his return inclosed his arrears in
the envelope and intrusted it to Har-
old to put on the plate. When the lit
tie boy came home from church, be
said proudly: Il put an awful lot Of
money on the plate this morning.
More'n anybody else, l guess
'You got the envelope there all
right?" asked his father carelessly,
for Harold had been almost afraid to
carry so much money.
"Oh, yes" he said; but took the
envelope off when got there and just
put the money Oh the plate in my
hand. Nobody'd have known how
much I gave if I'd left it in the en-
Telope.'

Strawberries,

Why are they called straw" berries?
Smart men differ on that. Some say it
is on account Of their hollow, strawlike
stems. Others think it is because they
have to be covered with straw or SINH
lar protecting material in winter. The
most classical explanation is that our
Anglo-Saxon forefathers used to raise
them and they gave them this name
because the berries are generally on
the ground-that is, "streWed" or
"strawed" around.
