They are Cute Old Fellows.

The Les Miserables is a club composed
of old bachelors and one or two young
widowers of this city. Each member
takes turn about in entertaining the club
with an elegant supper. A few nights
ago it was Mr.. Geo. r. Davis turn and
he did the handsome thing at Crosdale's
Cafe. They usually respond to toasts but
on this occasion Mr.. Davis introduced the
unique idea of given each member a
question to be answered-the following
are few that were asked and answered
on that occasion:
What is marriage?
Marriage is an institution for the blind.
Why do some people never marry?
Because they do not believe in divorce.
When man thinks seriously of marriage,
what happens?
He remains single.
Does a,girl ever think of anything but
marriage?
Only that and how to get married.
should man marry a girl for her
money?
No. But he should not let her become
an oldsmaid just because she's rich.
Is an engagement as good as marriage?
It's better.
When two thin people become engaged,
what happens?
They Immediately grow very thick.
When man has popped the question
is he finished?
No; he has yet to question Pop.
When asking papa, how should a young
man act?
He should face papa manfully and never
give him chance at his back.

Lack in Common Schools.

1t is gratifying to hear all of the
candidates for the Legislature express
such exalted views on the subject Of
education. They all stand for better
schools, better teachers, better pay
a:ld longer terms. If each one could
devoto shout half hour in iiistius
apon the utter indifference oe the pa
rents on this great subject and ex-
horting them to send their children
regularly and support the teacher in
her work. we believe good deal more
good could be done. Our opinion is
that the common schools are suffering
more to-day from the lack of support
OF the parents than from the lack of
funds. The fact that there is large
amount to the credit of nearly every
school district is evidence conclusive
that the patrons are not living up to
their opportunities. Enthusiasm
among the rank and file of the patrons
is needed. d.-Walterboro Press and

Y OuIlg Plants |

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
Others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
Others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
Of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsionseems 10 find
it and set the matter right.
