CONVERSE BUSINESS
LEGE.
COL

Our representative stepped into
this establishment few days ago in
Spartanburg, and found Prof. Will
liams and Prof. Jumper both busy
with their classes.
Prof. I. T. Williams is one of the
most distinguished educators in the
south, in business line. He is en-
gagged in teaching the method of type
writing by which the operator could
successfully use a typewriter, even
though he should lose his sight.
He has associated with him, Prof.
L. B. Jumper, who is one Of the most
competent instructors in bookkeep-
ing and business departments, and
Prof. Williams himself being so very
thorough in his knowledge and teach
ing Of stenography and typewrlting,
they are prepared to give the most
thorough business equipment to be
found anywhere at so moderate a
cost. The system of shorthand
taught here is the only one which
gets to the subject in the shortest
manner and yet is equal to absolute
ly all needs of the practical amanu-
ensis.
They are now sending out to many
| Young men and ladies their new cata-
log which anyone would be benefited
to read, and which anyone can secure
by writing for it.

Now that the cotton is coming in
and the farmers are getting a good
price and the crop is fairly good we
hope our friends who owe us for sub
scription will come forward and pay
something on their account We need
the money to meet our obligations
and the amount each one owes is
small. Do not wait for statement
to be sent you, but call in and settle

it at once, while you think of it. Even
one dollar from each subscriber will
be great help.

Letter to T. M. Neel.
Newberry, S. c.

Dear Sir: Here's a IS year yarn;
you like yarns, don't you7 1t comes
from Odell Hardware CO, Greensboro
N. c.
Mr. R G Gleen's house in that town
was painted Devoe about IS years
ago, and next, this year.
A house, next-door, was painted
about the same time with another
paint, supposed to be good. This
house was painted again about 5
years ago with still another paint,
processes to be extraordinary.
Glenn's house, before it was paint
ed just now, was in as good condition
as that one. Devoe IS years; the
other S years-guess that's about
how to put it.
But this extraordinary paint is a
bluff; Devoe is the paint.
Yours truly,
86 F. w. Devoe & CO.

The Barnwell People gives some
good advice to newly elected mem
be7s of the legislature and auli- rizes
it's exchanges to talk along the line
of the advice without credit but we
will quote from our contemporary ana
give it the credit of the suggestion
and as we have some new members
we given them the benefit OF the ad-
vice, if they desire to take it. This
paper says:
MANY of you are new men, some
of YOU are better and others OF you
not as good as those who preced-
ed you.
You are happy now in the first
enjoyment of your victory. You
are. and ought to be, proud OF the
confidence of your fellow citizens, and
YOU are counting upon doing the very
best YOU can for your constituents.
"But you know little of public at
fairs and while your intentions are
the right thing you don't know what
ought to be done or how it ought
to be done.
This paper offers you little ad-
vice for your good. Don't wait ur-
til you get to Columbia next January
to begin learning your duties, unless
you are willing to be but a figure head
and cats paw. Write, each OF you,
at once to the governor for a copy
of his last message, to the state OH
cials, attorney general, comptroller
general, state treasurer, secretary OF
state, adjutant general and superln-
tendent of education for copies OF
their last annual reports. Buy or
borrow the acts of the last session
or two. With these text books you
can get a good general idea OF the
situation, and will be somebody when
the lawmaking begins.
IF you have the time, or can take
it have a good long heart to heart
talk with each of your county officers.
Find out all they can tell you, their
duties and desires, the quantity OF
their work, the suficiency of salary
and what changes and improvements
are proper and possible.
"Our exchanges are authorized to
talk along this line without credit to
US"

Keeping Everlastingly At 1t.

That is what pays. There are men
who believe it does not pay to adVer-
tise. 1t is because they do not go
at it in the right way. 1t is a fact
that every live business man recog-
nizes that to succeed he must do Ju-
dicious newspaper advertising. Some
realize more out of such advertising
than others because they know how
to do it to make it pay. Keeping after

Nebraska State Journal

Marked kanSdS-NeDfdSRa 0ou1lad1y'
Nebraska State Journal.
An iron column marking the south
eastern corner of Nebraska has been
found after it's location and even its
existence had been forgotten by John
Wright The column was set by
surveyors about 1854 and its site is
now overgrown with briers and
weeds and was only located after a
diligent search. The position of the
monument discloses that the Mis-
souri, river has changed its course al
most three miles since the time sur
veyors did the work.
Mr.. Wright was sent out to locate
it and by following the state line he
finally found it. 1t is set in rock
base. which. though badly weathered,
is above ground In raised letters on
the south side of the column is the
word Kansas, on the north side the
word Nebraska, on the west 1854, on
the east 48 degrees north latitude.
While it was set about three miles
from the rives it is wv only about
forty yards away. Its about eight
miles southeast Of Rrlo.
The field notes show that its
weight is 800 pounds, and that it was
carried across the river in a skiff by
an old Indian who ran a ferry at that
early day.

CABINET DISCUSSES MATTERS OF
IMPORTANCE TO VARIOUS
DEPARTMENTS

Washington, Dec. 7.-Several mat

All members OF the cabinet except Sec
retary Taft were present Secretary
Hay presented matter relating 10
American missionaries in Persia and
their status in that country, but no az
ton on it was taken. Secretary Shaw
discussed briefly question which has
arisen regarding the use of alcohol iii

make some announcement about it.
Secretary Morton had for conside.a-
ton matter concerning government
shipyards, but no details about it were
Obtainable. Postmaster General Wynne
took u2 with the president the papers
in the cases of some applicants tor ap-
pointmcnt as postmasteHs. AS the ap-
poiDtments arc agreed upon they will
be sent TO the senate for con niirmatiCn.
Some embarrassment has been
caused the president and the pOStmaS-

ment that it had been determined no
postmaster who had served eight years
would be reappointed. No such &C.
cisiOn has been reached. Each case
presented to the president will be de-

is made that a pOStmaster's service o!

lie, though the people surely get
enough practice.
The first question asked in every
home by every member Of the family
returning from an absence on tho
streets is "Where's mother:"
There are two complaints which can
usually be made of every woman: She
has too much patience with her sons
and not enough with their father.
Talk about man fussing about the
family bills! You should hear a coun-
trywoman who makes butter talk to
her folks when they dip into her
cream.
