Carolina in high position who oppose
compulsory education because the
negro is here. They see "nigger
in the wood pile" on every occasion.
They do not seem to realize the fact
that the negro is today taking advan-
tage OF all the education that is being
offered while many white children
are being denied the advantages Of
the poor schools that are offered
them. They do not realize the fact
that no child is an a. -:dent but
part oi the divine plan and has rights
that even the parents should be made
t. respect. Every child is created
for some wise purpose in the divine
plan and is entitled to the very best
advantages that can be given to make
useful citizen.

TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 27.
The Williamson Pardon.

The Herald and News has already
published the facts in the case of
Henry Williamson 1t concerns
Newberry in that the prosecutor has
brothers and other relations in this
county and the reference to which we
take exception in the editorial OF
the State has to do with Newberry
men.
We do not propose to criticize the
verdict nor the action OF the
governor in granting the par
don, though petition signed
by more than 600 citizens OF Green
wood county was presented to the
governor asking the pardon and it
was also recommended by the Judge
and solicitor who tried the case. Mr.
Werts' brothers in this county, who
are good and true citizens, employed
Hunt; Hunt & Hunter to assist the
solicitor in the prosecution.
It is also true that Mrs. williamson is
in bad health and is very much in
need of the services and assistance of
her Husband. Only a few days ago
the writer of this had most pathetic
letter from her stating very frankly
her situation and condition. In view
Of these circumstances the Wertses
simply withdrew their opposition to
any action the governor might feel
it his duty to take. They neither
RECOMMENDED nor opposed the par
don. =:
The State concludes it's criticism
with the following sentence: "The fact
that the Werts family finally agreed to
clemency is, it seems to us, additional
evidence of the present influence of
money in criminal cases in South Car
olina."
The only conclusion to be drawn
from this is that the Wertses have
been Influenced by money considera-
tioIs in withdrawing their opposition
to the pardon. This IS not true and
is really reflection upon good and
true citizens of this county and we
cannot let this statement or serious
charge against citizens OF Newberry
county pass without entering Our pro-
test. '
AS to the matter of granting par
dons we are among those who be-
lieve that punishment is not solely
for the purpose of imposing physical
punishment. The ends of justice
may be reached just as we'll in many
cases by granting pardons and some
times more may be done that is bene-
fetal to humanity by granting the
pardon than by refusing it.
In this particular case, knowing the
parties and the circumstances as we
do, we commend the action of the
Wertses in Withdrawing their opposi,
ton and the governor in granting the
:. pardon. Longer confinement of vii,
hanson could not add to the punish,
ment. The law has been vindicated
The innocent who are suffering will
be relieved. The governor has done
the right thing.

glow of jewels flash in and out

Cleanliness counts for more than

who had become her stepmother.
Nor is this the only tradition with
which the Russian peasantry have
associated the tree. According to
Prof. Mannhardt, it is employed by
them to evoke Lieschi or gent of the
forest. The method of procedure is
not without interest. The peasants
cut down some young trees and ar
range them in circle with the tops
inclining toward the center. They
then enter the circle thus formed, and
call up the spirit, who forthwith ap.

stump of one of the trees that has

ward the east. The peasants kiss his
hand, and while looking between his
legs, they say in chorus, "Uncle Lies.
chi, show yourself to us not as gray
wolf, not as fierce fire. but as l my
self appear" AS the result of this
appeal, the leaves of the aspen shake
most vigorously, and Lieschi makes
his appearance in human form and
express himself quite willing to rem

II you can draw even a little bit
you can make pretty pictures of new
and interesting sort in a very easy
way. The picture is made on any
fiat surface that you can hold in a
gas, lamp or candle flame without
burning or cracking. A piece of tin
or sheet zinc will do, or china plate,
earthen pie dish or pane of glass. If
you use tin or zinc, take care that you
do not burn your fingers, as piece Of
metal gets hot all over, though only
a part of it is in contact with the
flame. On the other hand, if you use
porcelain or glass, especially the lat
ter, you must pass it quickly through
or just above the flame to avoid crack
ing it by heating one spot too strong
ly, and repeat the operation until as
large spot as you need is blackened
evenly.
Draw your picture with a pin or a
pointed stick, which will scrape away
the scot from the white china or
bright metal so that you cannot draw
very well is simply this-you can
alter the picture until you get it right.

The safest and best way to avoid
colds is to sleep in room with the
windows wide open, and to remain out
OF doors every day, no matter what
may be the weather, for at least two
hours, preferably with some kind of
exercise, if not more than walking.
One should not sit down to rest while
the feet are wet or the clothing damp.
A person may go with the clothing

This heading is not, as might be
supposed, meant to imply that Russia
has discarded the knout in favor of
the punitive implement familiar to
this country. It has to do with the
birch tree. So high is the regard in
which this tree is held that it excels
other trees in four qualities-It gives
light to the world, stiles cries,
cleanses and cures diseases. The ap.
probation in which the tree is held
by the Russian people is further

The CauS''le Of Colds

The invariable cause of colds comes
rom within, not without, says the Sci
snce Of Health. No one takes cold
wnen In a vigorous state of health,
with pure blood coursing through the
oooy' and there is no good reason why
any one in ordinary health should
nave a cold. It. may come from in
sumclent exercise, breathing of foul
AIR. want. of wholesome food, excess
Oh food, lack of bathing, ETC., but
always from some violation Of the
plain laws Of health. =, : !:
There can be no more prolific cause
OF colds than highly seasoned foods,
as well as, frequent eating. These
give no time for the digestive organs
TO rest and incite an increased flow
OF the digestive secretions. Thus
larger quantities of nourishment are
absorbed than can be properly utilized
and the result is an obstruction, COM
monty called a cold," which is simply
an effort of the system to expel the
useless material. Properly speaking,
it is self-poisoning, due to an in
capability of the organism to regu-
late and compensate for the disturb
ance.

abound, laid out in miniature lakes,

Rheumatism in Utah.

Frisco, Utah, May 2nd.-There is
great deal of Rheumatism in this and
neighboring states, and this painful
disease has crippled many a strong
man and woman among an otherwise
healthy people. +
Recently, however, there has been
introduced into Utah remedy for
rheumatism which bids fair to stamp
out this awfully painful complaint
The name of this new remedy is
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and it has al.
ready wrought some wonderful cures.
Right here in Frisco there is case of
a Mr.. Grace who had Rheumatism so
bad in his feet that he could hardly
walk. He tried many remedies in
vain, but Dodd's Kidney Pills cured
him.
Ellis wife says: I'VE both had Kid.
ney Trouble, and my husband had the
Rheumatism so bad that he could
hardly walk. We used Dodd's Kid.
ney Pills with much benefit. We have
tried many remedies, but none have
done us so much good as Dodd's Kid.

Similar reports come from all over
the state. and it would seem as if
Rheumatism had at last been con.
quered.

plest and one of the most interesting
is the ink aquarium trick.
Present a glass full of ink to the
that it is ink by dipping visiting
card in it and showing the card. Now
announce that there are live fish in
the tumbler that just thrive on ink,
and you will prove they are there by
changing the ink to water so that the
onlookers may see them.
Throw handkerchief over the
glass so as to entirely envelop it, re-
peat an incarnation and then suddenly
whisk the handkerchief away.
The audience will be very much as
tonished to find the glass filled with
water, clear as crystal, with several
fish swimming about in it.
The trick is performed in this way
Get piece of thin black rubber cloth
and line the inside of the glass with
it, then tie black thread to the up
per edge of the cloth. Attach a little
button or bit of cork to the end of the
thread overhanging the tumbler, as
shown in the drawing.
Fill the glass with clear water, and
Introduce several fish, live ones il
you can possibly procure them, but
If not, toy fish will serve, though the
trick will hardly be so effective.
The ink test with the visiting card
is accomplished by means of a con-
federate who is in the audience and
who hands you a card which is mark.

the card into the tumbler you con.
trive to turn it around, and the audi

change from ink to, water is effected
by pulling out the rubber cloth by

whisked away. Some practice is need.
