44th year since he bought an interest
in the Independent Press, which was
afterwards consolidated with the Alb

Within the past three weeks great
damage has been done to the oat crop
in several of the lower counties of the
State by small green flies, called the
aphis or plat louise, and it is feared
that in some sections the crop will DO
wholly destroyed by the pest. The
insects attach themselves in great
numbers to the underside of the oat
blades and appear to suck the juice
from the plant. A field that is at
tackled has the appearance Of having
been scorohed, and the oats are brown
and withered. The most disoouraging
feature Of the situation is that there
is no certain remedy for the evil, and
the chronological at Clemson College,
to whom the farmers have appealed,
does not give much encouragement to
hope that means can be found to de-.
stroy the pest and save the part of
the crop that has thus far escaped the
ravages of the pest. 1t is a very Sc
rious matter down there, aud means
q lose OF hundreds and thousands of
dollars to the farmers.

At the Peoples store the millinery
department is on the second floor, and
the entire front half has been devoted
to the display Of spring and summer
hats. The apartment has been lastly
arranged for the occasion. There was
a profusion of small fruit, flowers and
other materials used in the decoration
of hats artistically arranged, and with
the hats themselves presented an effect
of pronounced richness. One would
hardly know where to begin were ne
to mention each individual hat which
appealed to his fancy, and IN order
to do so would take columns OF space,
for the display was a large ana hand-
some one. In a general way, 1rult,
flowers. ribbons and laces enter into the
makeup of the correct hat for the sea-
son. Small flowers are used a great
deal, and no lady can have a hat With
out some flowers on it. A very stylish
hat was one of black, with tear jet
ornaments, nd another, flower nat
of peoples. Then there was fine line
of street hats, the new Meline hats,
and handsome hats in black shirred
lace. A very pretty hat is the foliage
hat, made of small leaves. with just
flowers enough to give it a dash of
color. The Neopolitan horse hair braid
hats, which we have not had for sew
eral years, are again in style, and are
shown in some very. tasty effects. An
other pretty hat noticed was of hand
painted tulle over chip. Forgetmenots
are used extensively upon hats, and

THE OPENINGS.
A Look at Some Of Augustus Easter
Displays.
Beautiful Exhibitions to Delight the
Hearts of the Ladies.

This is milllners' week. 1t is the
week of all the weeks in the year to
which they look forward with pleasant
anticipations, for it brings to them the
crowning triumph of their work. 1t is
the week when they display for the
inspection of the public all the latest
creations of feminine headWear which
the fertile brain of the originator can
devise, and best of all, it is the week
(which brings with it the reward, in
the way of generous sales, which is
justly theirs by virtue of their work.
The Easter display of hats is always
a pretty one. 1t is an occasion that is
strictly feminine, and one which the
fair sex annually go into ecstasies over,
and it must be admitted that even
while to the unframed eye of man, the
hats may seem to be fearfully and Won
derfully made, the effect produced is
one of beauty.
Those who are in a position to know
say that the hats this season are pref
tier than ever. The prevailing shapes
show a tendency to flatness, with wide
brms, and are worn well down over
the face; while for trimmings, the
smaller flowers, fruits and berries pre-
dominate. Colors are used great deal
particularly the reds and blues, but
there are also some very handsome
hats in black, also in white, although
the latter color is used but little alone
Yesterday morning, a reporter called
upon the Journals advertisers and
found them getting ready for their
openings and up to their eyes in bust
ness. There are only three days be-
fore Easter, and as every lady in the
city has her heart set upon appearing
out, next Sunday, with her new spring
hat, the rush had already begun when
the reporter called.
Those who inaugurated their OPEN
ings, yesterday, were Buckley & Good
rich, f. II. Butler, and Allen & En-
right the ladies' hatters. In each place
the display was in good taste and very
pretty, and the goods of style and
quality to suit the most fastidious Gus

Allen G. Enright.

Misses Allen & Enright, the ladies'
hatters, had very successful first day
for their opening. Their parlors in
Meonian hall building We're Hastily
decorated with smilax, Lawson pinks
and potted plants and with their dis
play of hats, left an impression of good
taste with all who saw them. The
hats were all of the latest styles which
will be worn this season and trimmed
in a way that is strictly correct. No
ticeable among the creations were the
new blue and scarlet shades which will
be worn a great deal. One decidedly
pretty picture hat was of white horse
hair braid and chiffon, trimmed with
gilt, white ribbon and pink roses.
Another and handsome hat was of
black, trimmed with black plumes.
They also showed nice line of straws,
including the popular champagne
shades.

SERVE 1T HOT!
Begin the Day with Steaming Dish OF
Malt Breakfast Food. Most Eco
nomicaI of All Cereals.

That man-of-all-work, the human
stomach. needs a hot breakfast. The
famous Mr.. Dooley could not eat his
.'ready-to-serve" cereal because he for
got his nosebag. He realized that cold
fodder is all right for animals, but that
civilized man needed to begin the day
right with a dish of hot, appetizing,
nourishing Malt Breakfast Food.
This is the original and standard
malt-wheat cereal: it is food, not a
fad; it is to be cooked in the home, and
not eaten out of the pasteboard box IN
which it leaves the factory. Compare a
steaming-hot dish of Malt Breakfast
Food, served with cream and sugar,
with what Mr.. Dooley calls "a scientific
preparation of burlaps," or "cheml-
cally pure dish made of the exterior of
bath towels" Is there any COMPARE
son?
Malt Breakfast Food is simple, hon
est food. delicious and satisfying. There
is nothing faddish about it, the very
name tells honestly what it is, the finest
wheat, carefully and thoroughly malt
ed There are two full pounds in every
package, and when prepared for the
table. according to the directions, it
goes just eight times as far, pound for
pound, as the ready-cooked foods.
AS a special inducement to try Malt
Breakfast Food a carbon photograph is
placed in every package. Large photo
graphs, without printing or advertising,
the same as sell for two or three dollars
in the art stores. are given in return for
coupons taken from the packages. This
is an unusual opportunity to obtain
valuable photographs, suitable for
framing, without expense.
Your grocer will indorse everything
the manufacturers claim for Malt
Breakfast Food. He will tell you that
it gives better satisfaction than any
other cereal in his stock, and that it is
the favorite with his best trade.

At the F. H. Butler store, Mrs. M. l..
Wheeler, the nlilliner, has the advan-
tage of holding her Easter opening in
a practically new store. The store
was recently refitted, and finished in
white. and with the evergreen decor
lions which were put up for the oc-
casion, presents most CHEEKY appear
ance The stock of hats shown is a
large one and includes everything in
the spring and summer styles for ladies
and misses. Mrs. Wheeler was par
ticularly fortunate in securing the ser
vices of Miss l.. Il. Marshall of New
York, for the season to do her trim
ming and designing; and each of the
many hats shown give evidence of re-
fined taste. 1t is Mrs. Wheeler's desire
to have the best quality of goods to be
secured, and lne display of trimmed
hats and all the latest millinery novel;
ties would seem to indicate that sne
had succeeded.

average of 215 pounds. There was no
one of the party whose weight was alb

Capt. Dana w. Lovejoy and the MEM
bers of Co. f, National Guard of the

Wednesday evening, and began the
work of preparing for disbanding. The
arms and munitions, clothing and all
equipments will be gathered and inven-
toried before the discharges are made
out. The men did not seem inclined to
talk beyond saying that the company
has won more prizes for Workmanship
than any other in the State during it's
existence, and that they did not expect
to be disbanded. They expect to be
discharged, this week. The members of
the company will hold a meeting after
they are mustered out to see what they
will do with the company property that
they have accumulated, which includes
a fine outfit of gymnasium appliances.
tables, chairs, desks, wardrobes, prizes
won in company competitions, and
many other miscellaneous things. Cap
tain Lovejoy expressed a hope that the
new company would be free from the
inconvenience that Co. F has had dur
ing the winter of not being able to use
the hall for drills on Monday nights so
much as they planned, because it has
happened that so many other things
have been going on in the hall on those
evenings. 8;
