Proper Way to Exercise.

Instead of wearing out their strength
in contortion machines, reiief-seekers
should flee to the woods and the
mountains, should pitch their tents
in some neighboring wooded high
lands and share the fun of hoeing out
trail to the next spring; should
gather raspberries in the deep clefts,
and climb trees in quest of squirrels
nests; should fetch their own fuel from
the pine-knot bottoms, and arrange
expeditions to the highest peaks of the
neighborhood. In that manner, a two
weeks camp in Elysium will suffice
to lay in reserve store of health
for several months of town life; and,
besides, experience will prove that
with a practical purpose and the stim-
ulus of visible results enables an inva-
lid to beguile himself into an amount
of exercise unattainable by the man
ual of the horizontal bar.

Vegetables Whitfield.

If the reader ever amused himself
by constructing turnip lantern he
must have observed how readily the
vegetables yielded to his knife Tur,
nips, carrots and apples are capital
things for the youthful sculptor to
exercise his skill upon, and with pa.
tience he may succeed in turning out
some very interesting objects.
We have seen bouquet OF imita-
ton flowers, formed of carrots, beets
and turnips, that presented a most
natural appearance. A chrysanthe-
mum may be carved out of carrot a
camellia out of small white turnip,
and a damask rose out of beet. Other
natural objects may be initiated in
carved fruits and vegetables by an
ingenious lad, and if he has a taste
for the grotesque he may try his plas-
tic skill on caricatures of his friends.

such change has taken place, the rea-
son is either because the rim of the
glass was not entirely dry or because
the cardboard does not completely
cover its surface. and, therefore, be-
fore beginning the experiment atten-
tion should be paid to these two points.
You may next place on it small
cork, intended as seat for little
frog, that you can easily cut out of the
paper. After few minutes the card
board will become depressed as the
result of moisture, and this quick
transformation will cause it to expand
so greatly that the frog and cork will
be sent flying into the air.
This simple trick is becoming a
favorite in many homes, and never
fails to evoke good deal of laughter.

window upstairs to see what "honest

The cook was long time coming
back to dress the fish; and all the while
Dick kept watch-now on the pail,
now on the kitchen door. At last he
went somewhat nearer to the pail,
then nearer then nearer. All! frost
fish smell so good. Dicks little nose
almost touched them! And then he
sat down and cried at the top of his
voice for cook to return quickly and
save him from becoming thief!
Still she did not come At last Dick
put his fore paws on the edge of the
pail. Then he looked at the kitchen
door and cried again. But the door
did not open. SO slowly, softly, a paw
reached down into the pail But, be-
fore it had gone down as far as the
fish, it came back with a jerk empty;
and its owner ran around the corner of
the house where he could not see or
smell those nice frost fish any more.
He did not want to be thief; and we
believe that the little fellow never
came so near it again.-Little Folks.

Honest Little Dick.

In all my life 1 never saw so honest
a little cat as our Dick. He cot only
never stole himself, but he would not
allow any other cat to steal if he could
help it. The dear little fellow, how
ever, was strongly tempted once, and
came very near to losing his good
name.
One day the cook carried out a pail
of nice little frost fish, and set it
down in the yard. Dick was there.

Sphinx CrumbIlna to Dust.

d. G. Longworth of the Sphinx
newspaper, Cairo, Egypt, who is now
in England, brings the warning that
the wondrous marvel Of the ancient
world, the Egyptian Sphinx, is rapidly
decaying. 1t will not now, he says,
be able long to withstand the altering
climate of Egypt, due to the irriga-
tion of recent years. A few years ago
an hours downfall of rain once a year
was a novelty in Egypt. The natives
regarded it as some dire message of
reproach from the gods. The irri-
cation and the many trees about the
Delta has changed this. Fifteen to Is
days heavy rain falls now every year
on the head of the Sphinx. The Sc
we're "Khamseem" sandstorm follows
and cuts into the soddened limestone
of the ancient monument, literally
whiting it away all over the surface.

Prince Orsini, who is the owner of
the beautiful Lake Nemi, near Rome,

the efforts of the Italian government
to raise the two galleys of Caligula
which were sunk A. d. Al off the
shores of this lovely sheet Of water.
Sufficient has been recovered at pres

that the vessels in question measure
respectively 225 feet and 237 feet in
length by 60 feet and rs feet in width
Their decks were evidently covered

A Prize for Matches.

The Belgian government offered
several years ago a prize of $4,000
francs for the invention of a paste
for matches that did not contain
white sulphur. Many products were
submitted, but the judges recently re,

required conditions. They were Ell
ther defective in inflammability or

alike. Some of them gave off in

a special train Sunday morning from
Laurens to Columbia, at one fare for

hence the crowd was not as large as it
would have been. However, there
were one hundred and twenty tickets
sold from this city, very fair repre-
sentation from the James D. Nance

Immediately on their arrival in Co.
lumbia the two camps were marched to
the residence of the deceased general
and there took last look at the re-
mains of the grand old hero.
It was indeed privilege to attend the
funeral of Wade Hampton, and we are
glad that so many Of our citizens took
advantage of the opportunity, and all
were proud on their return that they
had gone.

The Teachers Meeting.

The regular meeting of the County
Teachers association was held last
Saturday, and I was delighted to see
such q large number of teachers and
friends present. This meeting was one
of the best We have had in two years.
I should like to see every teachers
meeting attended as largely as the one
of Saturday. As was announced, State
Superintendent John J. McMahan met
with us and delivered very appropri-
ate and interesting address on schools.
He stated that our present school sys-
TEN owes its origin very largely to the
war between the States and the ''car-
peu-bag" rule of "76," and though the
schools are yet in q very imperfect
state, there has been q marked and
steady growth. The address through
out was quite an able and attractive
one, aud I am sur" all teachers and
visitors who had the good fortune OF
listening to Mr.. McMahan were highly
nleased and well-paid for the hour they
spent in Saturdays meeting.
The next teachers meeting will te
held on the 10th OF May, and I hope {
see as many teachers and friends pres
ept on that date, as were present last
Saturday. Eug. S. Werts.
