Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while Others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
Of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow

THE VIEW CHARLESTON.

Charleston, that staid old
city of which poets have sung
and historians have written
many pages, has been for these
hundreds of years SUI generzs.
She has recently, however,
undergone a t ia n S t o n.
Through the Exposition and
it's influences Charleston has
been changed into a hustlng,
bustling, twentieth century
city in which new methods
and new ideals prevail.
AS the heaving and trembl-
ing of the earth in 'So demol-
ished many of her cherished
relics of the old colonial days
so has the Exposition and the
cosmopolitan throng which
attended it left their impress
by dissipating, in q large
measure, the ultra-conser--
vatism of social and CONNER
cial life. Many a hitherto
unknown innovation is now
to be seen. Notably that of
the reporter boarding the lion
in his den by invading and
profaning the sacred precin-
cts of Charleston's exclusive
and reclusivc social set and
exploiting their social tunc-
tions in the public prints.
Doubtless some of Charles
toms old antiquated citizens,
who, nothing daunted: cling
to the ideas and customs Of
their fathers ana fOre1ashers:
are now saying that this new
order of things will, in the
language of Mr.. Mantilini
lead the city to the "demni'
tion 'oowwows."
Charleston has taken OF
new life. Commercially speak
ing, a new heaven and a nev
earth have opened up to her
So marked will be the chang
in Charleston, due to the Ex
position, that we shall in fu
ture call her the New Char
lleston.

A Praiseworthy Example.

Edgefeld has three young
men who are going to make
men O f themselves. Now
that school is over for a sea-
son, Messrs Horace Cogburn,
Ralph Jones and Kalford Bur
ton have gone down to work,
the real thing, in the cotton
mill in[order to learn the bus
mess. This is a splendid sum-
mer school for them. There
are about a half dozen others
who should follow their prais-
worthy example. Which is
the more commenda5le, whit
ting on dry goods boxes and
being one of the gang on the
corner, in other words, a Loaf
er, or working in the mil
learning the cotton mill busl-
ness. Cerainly the latter is
an hundred times more COM
mendable. Young men who
choose the industrial field will
find that not only remunerat'
i've employment but great pos
sibilities lie before them.
