Lesson to Bankers.

The Jewell County (Kansas) RepuD-
lican tells little story in illustration
of the circumspection with which coun-
try bankers must handle their CUSTOM
ers. A Kansas banker lost patience
with the "dribble-drabble" business of
a man who caused the bank lot of
trouble in bookkeeping, and the cash
ier told the man that his account was
not desirable. In a little while the
man died, leaving a large sum in life
insurance, which was deposited by the
wife in rival bank. And little later
still she married the best customer the
first bank had, and induced him to re-
move his deposit.
And the lesson is that all banks
should treat us kindly, for there is no
telling how soon We may leave lot
of vengeful widows to deposit the Life
insurance elsewhere and marry away
the banks best customers.

 Considering that in the birthplace of King Gambrinus, Austria and Bavaria, there are breweries that have been in ex- istence for centuries and some, even in this country, which have been established more than hundred years, whose out put does not reach one-half of the above figure, the achievement Is most remark able, especially so since this record was made in less than 35 years and under the sole and continuous management of its present President adv.

GreeDyille, S. c., November 14.--The
The State respecting cotton mills in
South Carolina has attracted considera-
BILE attention in this section because of
the large investments and rapid growth
of the textile industry within the past
decade. The reference to the mill at
Autun, in Anderson county, as being the
oldest mill in point of organization, can
hardly be sustained, however, although
it is one of the oldest, and has an interest
ing history. It was known for many
yeays as the '.Pendleton Factory" and
from Its early years was owned and opo.

and wealthy citizen of Pendfeton, who

pany was organized with Mr.. William
Perry as president and manager, and It
had a series of successful years under
his management. Mr.. Perry is now q
Citizen of Walhalla and is in his eighty
fourth year.
Batesyi.le is mentioned as being tho
only mill in the world with a womar as
the president, which is probably true,
should also enjoy the distinction of be-
ing the oldest mill now being oper ated
in South Carolina. Examination of
records of 1920 described land as being
on the south side of Rock creek "near
the factory" and that is where Bates
vile mill is situated. Mrs. Mary L.
Gridley, of this city, is the efficient presi-
dent, and is at her desk in the mill office
for three days in the week.

Death Of Mrs. Ruthy P. StribIina.

Mrs. Ruthy p. Stribling, widow of the
late Robert Stribling, died at the home
of Mrs. Kate Sigh, near Richland, on
Wednesday, 18th instant, after linger-
ing illness from the infirmities of age.
She was born June 10th, 1918. On Janu-
ary 30th, 1880, she was happily married
to Mr.. Robert Stribling, who died May
18th, 1877. To them five children were
born, of whom only one, Robert, arrived
at years of maturity. He died in the
army during the war between the States.
In early life she united with the Baptist
church, and was ever an earnest worker
in the Masters vineyard. After nearly
four score years and ten of service a
faithful servant has entered upon her
reward "Aunt Ruthie," as she was
affectionately called, was greatly loved
by all who knew her, and she will be
greatly missed. On the afternoon of the
18th instant her body was laid to rest in
the cemetery at Richland Presbyterian
church after appropriate funeral services
conducted by Rev. j. M. Sanders.

Rocked the Train.

Anderson Daily Mail, November 10th
AS the train from Bolton on the Blue
Ridge road last night was near Broada-
way trestle, running at the rate of 25
miles an hour, a rook was thrown into
the first class coach by some one along
side the track. The missile crashed
through window at which were seated
Messrs. Clifford Burriss and j. A. Shank
lin, of Anderson. Both gentlemen were
sprinkled with broken glass, but neither
seriously hurt. The train was not stop
ped and there is probably no clue by
which to discover the identity of the
miscreant. Mr.. Burris brought the rock
home with him as a souvenir.

of the church building and cemetery.
Prof. Brackett, of Clemson College, will
prepare the history of the church and it's
interesting surroundings. DR.. Brackett

of this "labor of love-" Any person

church, the life and service of Gen.

who may be buried in the cemetery, will

ShockIey's Mineral Springs.

Mr.. j. G. Shockley, of West Union, has
received from Clemson College the
analyses of his mineral springs. They
contain high per cent of the carbonates
of iron, potassium, calcium and magne-
sium, nitrate and sulphate of potassium,
mold, ammonia and traces OF carbonate of
lithia, and are free from injurious or
ganic matter. A number of physicians
who have seen the analyses have endorsed
them as being a fine chalybeate water,
valuable in the treatment of diseases of
the blood, stomach, liver and kidneys.
Mr.. Shockley and other local promoters
have in contemplation the erection of a
fine resort hotel, and as soon as the plans
can be formulated the prospectus and
complete analyses of the waters will be
published. The public has free access
to the springs and those who wish may
come and drink.
