The Largest Brick Hotel Tn The
South.

We beg to that the
" White Stone Lithia Hotel,' at White
Stone Springs, s. c., is now open for
the reception of guests. The entire
house is built of brick, covering more
than n acre of ground, surrounded
by many acres of beautiful shade trees
of many varieties. Nature alone has
done everything for the beauty of the
place, and together with the efforts of
an experienced landscape gardener,
has made it still more beautiful than
any N could imagine. The hotel lis
located ON the highest surrounding
hill, overlooking deep valleys on either
side, and so built that every room is
cool and desirable.
The Hotel has 225 feet frontage with
a two story piazza extending the entire
length, which ls we'll lighted by cleo.

bell, and quiet and efficient service is
always guaranteed. Every room is

famous " Rex" mattress beng used on
every bed.

WOMEN AS PoULTRY RAIsERs.-
Women and hens have some traits in
common, and from q close obserya-
ton of the feathered fowl an aphoris-
tic lore has sprung up which the I'M
kind man uses with an open hand
when talking to his women folks. How
often a short-tempered spouse tells his
wife that she looks like q wet hen:
that she cackles like a hen; that she
jumps about like a hen without Ter
brood. These are but a few of the
charges flung at the head of the long
suffering wife. Whistling girls and
growing hens have been classed to-
gether, and where is the irreverent
man who does not call a gathering of
women a ''hen party?"
Perhaps because they have some
strange sympathetic bonds, or maybe
for some occult reason, too deep for
man TO fathom, women are and always
have been extremely successful in the
poultry business. In many households
in the suburbs of most large American
cities the woman of the house supplies
her w table with the fruits of her
poultry yard. In not q few cases a good
profit is made by selling the surplus
product to neigbbors.
1t is one of the healtbiest fads or &C.
equations that a woman can take up.
The work entailed is very light; it is
clean and 1t is full of delightful va
riety that should charm the true fem
mime heart. Moreover, it Is a very IN
expensive fad to start. A few dollars
spent on erecting a coop and a wire
fence in which to keep the fowls is all
the equipment needed. Then, with
a few hens and a rooster and q setting
OF eggs, the poultry yard is ready to
start work -Phitadephia Inquirer.

Washington. oct 15.-The first annual
report Of Surgeon General RiXey shows
that the health Of the navy and marine
corps was good throughout the past fiscal
year the per centage of sick. the death
rate being lower than for several years.
The most impoi tant Tecommt ndati0n OF
the report, perhaps, is that congress pro-
vsded for the establishment OF a woman :
nurse corps of the navy. 70 consist OF
one superintendent nurse. eight head
nurses, eighteen frst-class and twenty
four second class nurses; these numbers
TO be increased at the discretion Of tie
secretary. The surgeon general says;
THAT women are the superior of men
for nursing there can be no question and
the objection that they are not compat-
ible with military conditions can scarcely

our large naval hospitals
The surgeon general also makes =
