in a short time, but in large
market will save clerks hire,
which saving on the old pound
and ounce scales. is entirely
lost.
A rival in the business, upon
the appearance of the foregoing
circular, lost no time in using it
to the disadvantage of the con
cern which boasted of making a
scale which yielded profit OF
three per cent to the seller, even
when selling at cost. The mat
ter finally got into the United
States court, where a decision
was rendered against the maker
of the scales especially designed
to discriminate against the buyer.
A practical test of the scale was
made during the trial of the case.
of which the judge who render
ed the decision said
A demonstration OF the opera
ton of the scale before us at the
bearing confirms the belief that
by its use the purchaser never
gains, but the seller generally
possibly not always, and that
this gam would be as much as OF
more than 3 per cent, apparent
ly considerably more.
The thanks Of the public are
centainly due the manufactures
who so effectively gave publicity
to the extraordinary, one. .sideC
features of his competitor's
weighing machine.

The Bargain

by the Mill Creek Distillig Com
pany.
Senator Tillman is being Sc.
verely criticised by some Of our
contemporaries for his attack on
MIR. Lyon. We do not endorse
the 'ough language used by Mr..
Tillman; on the contrary, we con
denim it, but in our opinion he
did exactly right in defending
his character and in taking to
task the party responsible for the
publicity Of mere rumor so in
famous as the one in question:
The proper thing, in our view,
for Mr.. Lyon to have done, when
he discovered that the rumor was
without foundation, was, in JUS
tice to Senator TiIlman, to have
made public acknowledgment of
the fact, inasmuch as it was
through his instrumentality that
the false report gained wide.
spread circulation.

TOO HARD FOR HIM,

1t appears from the following,
taken from the GreenwoodJourn-

peek boo waists as he does
about "cussih" mules:
Our friend, Editor Connors, of
The Lancaster News, a ks us to
tell what "peek. a-boo" waist is
We would be The gIaddest in the
world to do so if we could, but
1t Is too hard for us. 1t must be
mighty bad thing tor gen
tleman informs us that Ie saw q
statement yesterday TO the effect
that priest had given notice
that no woman be allowed to
come to the altar with one of
"them things" on. Why not re.

with the aid OF those very in
teIIigent but profane mule colts
work the thing out. What ails

THE TILLMAN-LYON INCIDENT.

In a speech in Columbia Mon
day night Senator Tillman made
a sensational attack on Mr.. Lyon,
one of the candidates for attorney
general, charging him with being
a malicious slanderer and liar
The attack was provoked, the
Senator said, by the failure of
Mr.. Lyon to acknowledge by per
sonal letter or otherwise that he
had done him gross injustice
when few months ago he gave
publicity to rumor that the
Senator had been given a piano
by a whiskey house, the rumor
having been promptly shown to
be false.
The daily papers of Wednesday
contain statement from Mr.
Lyon in which he admits that the
cispensary investigating commit
tee, of which he is a member,
failed to secure evidence to sub
stantiate the rumor as to the
piano. In his card Mr.. Lyon
says:
"About the piano incident.
The committee employed a de
tective 10 report all he could find
relative to all dispensary affairs.
The detective formally and in
writing reported 10 the commit
tee that The Mil Greek D.sIilling
Company had given to Governor
Illlman plano 1t was the duty
OF the committee, as ! saw it, to
Inquire into such a report. Mr..
Hayes was seen and failed to
confirm the report submitted
to The committee. After Enquiry
by committee failing to secure
any credltable evidence, the
piano incident was dropped and
forgotten, especially as Mr.. NJ.
a. Malone had previously fully
explained the purchase Of
piano in 1891. 1t was never
charged or stated by me that
Governor Tiliman had gotten a
piano from a whiskey house,
but there was a rumOr 10 the
effect, and that there was a ru-
NOR to that effect the official re
cords of the subcommittee will
show. That was all that
was ever said about the piano.
Even Senator Tillman insis-
ted upon full investigation
of every act connected with the
dispensary, and | yet fail to
see the harm at the failure to
find cOIroboration of the rumor
that a piano had been sent him

SCALES.

A controversy has been going
on for some time between two
rival manufacturers of scales in
which the general public is deep
ly interested. Of course the con
suner or buyer doesn't care who
makes the scales used by his mer.
chant or butcher, provided the
machine registers honest weight !;
hnt when he finds that there is a
difference in scales, that some
give just weight while others do
not, he very naturally wants to
know the cause of such differ
ence.
Any perso who has ever had
sny experience at all in such
matters knows that scales NAV
now and then, through lack of
attention and proper regulation,
get out of fix and fail to weigh
accurately, just as watch or
clock may occasionally fail TO
keep correct time. The people
know that such~irregularities are
liable to happen, and when they
do occur they occasion no surprise

manufacturer Of scales deliber-
ately and boldly proclaims
effect that his weighing device
are so constructed that they give
the seller an advantage over the
buyer it is high time for con-
sumers and the public generally
to sit up and take notice.
II is no wonder, therefore, that
great interest was manifested
throughout the c,untry when it
became known some time ago
that certain scale maker was
sending out the following circu.
lsr to dealers:
Can you do tAi5 on your scale?
Buy 20 pounds Of pork loins at
cents per pound, retail them
to your trade al the same price,
and get your money back? We
can on our scale and make YOU
3 per cent profit besides. If your
business amounts to $40 day
III sales, we can earn you 30
cents in fractions you don't get
now. Thirty cents a day means
you 1uy this scale every $50 days. |
How long have you been in bus
lnesH How many have you
bought in that time? Think of il
--one scale lost every six months |
Let our man prove this. II gives
the butcher the odd fractions to
which he is justly entitled. This
feature alone, in the average
meat and produce market, will
not only save the cost of scale
