called the Lexington and the station
on the railroad is known as Summer
land. The hotel is not large one
having only about fifty rooms, but ii

all OF the surrounding country, and
fronting the hotel is large body of
pines. 1t has all Of the modern con-
venlences for a first-class and up-to-
date resort. The water-works and
electric light plants are being built ex-

the surroundings make it an ideal
place for rest. The culinary depart
ment is in charge of a chief, who
was brought from the North. He is
an expert in his line. All of the help
about the hotel is white.
Major Childs. who is the manager of
the hotel. is Il retired army officer
and has been in bad health for some
time, AMI has traevllcd all over this
country in search of a place that
would be most beneficial to him., and
he says that he has found it in this
beautiful Summcrland. The hotel
was opened only about the middle of
February of this year, and though it
was late in the season, it has been
filled witt! tourists all the while.
The people of this section expect
that the trolley line from Augusta to
Columbia will be in operation with
in two years, and it is expected also
that the line will be built across to
Newberry and on to Spartanburg, and
no doubt by another season it will be
necessary to enlarge the accomoda-
tions of the Lexington.
The people of Leesville have been
attentive to the members of the dis

thing in their power to make the meet
ing pleasant and successful one. The
representatives all affirmed that this
has been one of the most successful
and pleasant meetings of its kind ever
held in the State, and those members
who have been in the habit Of attend
ing the Grand Lodge say that they
have seen nothing to surpass it in all
the conventions of the Grand Lodge
they have attended.

Another great source of danger is the
erroneous idea that the body should be

A peculiar physiological fact and one
which has caused much interest. among
scientific men is that 1t is only in fiction
that the mai who is rescued from
drowning feels lasting and overwheIm-
ing sense of gratitude toward his
rescuer. AS a matter of fact the
rescued usually has a feeling amounting
to antipathy for the one who has saved
him The psychologists explain this by
saying thaS the person whose life was

Another EXPLODED theory is that con-
cerning rescuers who have first been

that the greatest of pugilists could not

way to Laurel are settlements of
commuters. Each morning the cars

so packed that those who live so
close to the District as Mt. Rainier.

gret the value of seats on incom-

Comparatively the cost of living
outside of Washington is in no
sense less than within the Districts

And probably no other form OF

impressions connected with f.
A man who has an international repu-
tation as swimmer has taken pains
to correct some OF these fallacies. The
most widely accepted of these wrong
ideas is that many people are overcome
by cramp while swimming and are
drowned in consequence. As a matter
of fact there is only one form OF cramp
that IS fatal 10 the swimmer. and that ia
cranp in the stomach. which is exceed
inSly rare. This cramp IS the result of
acidity of the bowels. which Is brought
about by n bad stomach. This affects
the muscles. renders the person power
less and causes him to sink Cramp in
the limbs is frequent. but not necessarily
dangerous When a swimmer IS at
tackled BY such local cramps he will not
sink at once. but Will struggle desperate
ly and call out. OF course. these cramps
are painful. but they last but a short
time. and can be worked off IL the swim

may be that man is swimming on

used require the head TO be at right

as pumping process to force the blood

low as 800 cash, and $50 a month.
This in many cases is cheaper than
paying rent. although many brokers
sell under the same conditions in
the city.
1T seems TO me the reason that
so many people go to the suburbs is
not so much for what they save in
living as to have a home with a
yard around it. My clients are most
ly men with families, who want a
place for their children to play. They
seem to like 10 have a small garden,
but as most of them are very much

money raising vegetables, etc, than
they would If they bought them
from the market.
They get an unlimited amount OF

the returns they get in health and
enjoyment are not to be compared
with the money it costs. Then the
idea of buying a home for the same
amount as they would pay out in
rent appeals strongly, and they don't
mind in the least getting up at day
