The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1905-04-12

Miss Jeanette L. Glider, editor Of
The Critic, places the morals of d.
vorce in this lucid manner before the
readers Of the New York Globe: An
honest man does not repudiate his
business responsibilities nor refuse to
pay his gambling debts. Then why
should he be considered honest in
repudiating his domestic liabilities or
refusing to pay the debt incurred in
the great lottery? 1t is not considered
honest for woman to have children
and no husband. Then why should
it be considered hcnest for woman to
have children by two living men?
They cannot both be her husbands.
And surely the fact that some words
have been said by some licensed officer
over one does not make her more vlr-
rucus than the other, for apparently
they have not bound her any frmer.
Neither does trip into complaisant
State that legalizes these connections
alter: the moral aspect of the case.
These are perhaps ugly facts to look
in the face, but they are none the less
true, and if the sweetness and sacred
ness of American homes are to be
maintained the ugly facts of their pro-
gressive marriages uuss be en-
visaged.'
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1905-04-12

with sinuous activity to again clutch
the mans face or neck. With the ak
he smote madly at the curling feeler,
diverting its aim time and again, but
failing to deliver an effective stroke.
With agonized prescience the sailor
knew that he was yielding. Were the
deyilash giant of its tribe he could
not have held out so long. AS it was,
the creature could afford to wait.
strengthening its grasp, tightening its
coils, pulling and pumping at its prey
With remorseless certainty.
He was nearly spent. In paroxysm
of despair he resolved to give way and
with one mad effort seek to bury the
az in the monsters brain. But ere he
could execute this fatal project, for the
cutie would have instantly swept him
into the trailing weeds, five revolver
shots rang out in quick succession.
Iris had reached the nearest rock.
The third bullet gave the octopus
cause to reflect 1t squirted forth a
torrent Of dark colored fluid. Instantly
the water became black, opaque. The
tentacle, fourishing in air, thrashed
the surface with impotent fury. That
around jerks waist grew taut and
rigid. The ak flashed with tie inspira-
ton Of hope. Another arm was sew
cred. The huge dismembered coil slack
ened and fell away.
Yet was he anchored immovably. He
turned to look at Iris. She never for
got the feeting expression of his face.
So might Lazarus have looked from the
tomb.
"The rope!" she screamed, dropping
the revolver and seizing the loose ends
lying at her feet.
She drew them tight and leaned back,
pulling with all her strength. The
sailor flung the ak to the rocks and
grasped the two ropes. He raised him
self and plunged wildly. He was free.
With two conyulsiye strides he was at
the girls side.
He stumbled to a bowlder and drop
ped in complete collapse. After time
he felt Iris hand placed timidly on bis
shoulder. He raised his head and saw
her eyes shining.
''Thank you," he said. eve are quits
now.

The Solomon Islands are among
the latest of the Pacific to come under
the influence of Christian missions
The Solomon Islanders have been re-
