THIS MAN WAS A
Followed Girl Around World, Married
and Then Killed Her.

lnsanely jealous of his attractive
bride of two months, says ar. Associa-
ted Press New York dispatch, Julius
Telch, a silk weaver, today shot her
through the head and then sent a bull
let into his brain. Both died a few
minutes later at a hospital, where they
were taken.
Neighbors in the apartment house
where they lived said the couple had
quarrelled violently during the last few
days. When shots were heard in the
apartment this afternoon the police
We're summoned, when the doors were
forced Teich and his wife were found
unconscious. The couple were married
in June. Teich was 35 years old and
his bride was 80.
1t appears that it was after a search,
which lasted FIVE years and covered
$4,000 miles on the continents, that
julius Teich found the girl that he low
ed and persuaded her to marry him,
only to kill her after two months of
welded life, and then, repentant, to
take his own life.
Emily Herter lived in Germany with
her parents when she first met Teich,
who was a silk weaver. Teich fell in
love with the girl and wanted her to
marry him. But he was possessed of a
violent temper and Emily feared him.
Her parents also objected to the mar
riage. But Teich was insistent, SO
that Emily left Germany secretly to
escape him, and came to America.
This was five years ago. For two
years Teich searched Germany for her,
but failed to find her. Then her par
ents admitted to him that she was in
America, but refused to tell him where.
Nothing daunted, the young man came
to America and renewed his search.
He hunted New York for months, but
failed to find her. Then he went to
Minneapolis, st. Louis, Philadelphia and
Scranton, where he thought the girl
had friends, but without result. He
returned to New York a few month";
ago ~accidently, met Emily on the street.
She was living with her aunt, and in
spite of her aunt's objection, Emily
finally consented to marry the man, who
had been 80 faithful in his search for
her. They were married two months

MR.. McGOWAN'S CARD.

We publish in this issue of the Ad-
vertiser a very readable card from Hon.
f. =. MCGOWAN. While readable there
is very little in the card that we are
disposed to endorse other than the fact
that in the very near future we will be
compelled to have a new court house for
Laurens.
We are in favor of the city purchas-
ing from the county the old court
house, but when he talks about paying
500, 000.0 0 for it or selling the present
city hall property for $15, 900. OOit seems
Ridiculous.
We want a new city hall also, but
we don't want it on the public square
any more than we want the court house
there. If the old building is to be left
there we are in favor of it remaining a
court house. AS for obtaining spring
water for Laurens that proposition is
not to be more seriously taken than
that the city pay $25, coo. 90 for the
court house; in fact not so much so,
the city could pay the $25, 600. 90, but 1T
will not and should not, but it is a
physical imposslbility to obtain as much
water as the city requires from any
half dozen springs in a radius of five
miles of Laurens. Besides, it is utter
folly to say that Laurens has not as
good drinking water as any town in the
country. Some people are prejudiced
against it it is true, but the chemists
analysis and the practical use of it as
demonstrated and by the health of the
citizens who use it exclusively prove
~colclusively that the water is all right.

Corn Bread and HOminy.

South Carolina farmers, as a rule,
says Editor Wallace of the Newberry
Observer, do not pay enough attention
to corn. This is not a corn country, its
true; u land is better adapted to cot
ton, and cotton is more of money crop
thar corn. But we ought to raise more
corn; we ought to do it by better Gull
tivatlon and more care; and that will
be done from this forward, no doubt.
for the farmers have found the way.
There is no farm product so useful
about a farm. 1t is the best food for
horses and mules and most other farm
animals. When raised at home and
well cared for it is pure and sound and
wholesome, while on the other hand
much of the corr that comes from the
west is inferior; one of it is as good
as the South Carolina raised.
We do not appreciate fully the value
of corn as a food for man. 1t is more
wholesome than wheat. Hominy is a
staple food for breakfast, and no man
should go to his work without it. In
fact a breakfast of hominy and butter,
with milk or coffee, makes a wholesome
and sufficient meal; to which e bread
or batter-bread may be added. HON
my or egg bread is a far better food
than nine-tenths of the so-called "break-
fast foods" with which the country is
flooded. There are numerous ways of
preparing appetizing dishes from corn,
and if we would eat more of such pre-
parations and less of heavy biscuit and
rancid meats we would have less dya-
pepsia and live longer.
South Carolinans are learning how to
raise corn. Let them learn now how
to make good use of it.
More corn and less corn liquor is the
order of the day.

Real Home Economics.

Many housewives who want to prac-
tice economy in their houseke ping
who are interested In making a dollar
go as far as possible-are equally
anxious that their economies shall be
wise ones, calculated to preserve the
best Of health of the family and them
selves, and not be illustrations of the old
phrase Penny wise, pound foolish"
TIC housekeepers the suggestions in
this column are offered:
The Cook Who Manages the Supplies
naturally has much to do in promoting
either the extravaganza or the econ
omy Of the household 1t is a wanton
thing to throw away the leftover bits
OF meat. bread. etc, yet much discretion
must be exercised in their use. 1t is
a false idea of economy to consume
valuable time and expensive material
in making some leftover into a fancy
and often unwholesome dish. The
cook finds an extra pint of double
cream on hand. To utilize this a cake
is made and cut into squares upon
which the whipped cream is thickly
spread. Preserves are added to the side
Of the dish and a dessert produced
which represents the time of the cook,
the cost of the cake and a jar of pre-
serves-and all to save the, cream.
Cream is always a valuable asset and
improves the coffee, the salad dressing,
the cereal and the baked apples.
Scraps of Meat need not be made into
croQuettes when baked hash is quicker
TO prepare and more wholesome-or,
better still. they may be added TO the
"pot-au-feu" of the thrifty housewife.
The best way is not to have left-overs
in abundance. They are likely to indi-
cate eXtravagant planning.

deftly rubbed the bottom of each over

of second grade are nearly as delicate
as the higher priced article. dietically
as good, and allow OF no more waste.
Broken rice or rice Of smaller grains
is as nutritious and appetizing as
more expensive grains. while unpol-
ished rice is more nutritious as well as
cheaper, although 1t may not look as
well. The difference between white and

occasions and the proper placing of the
"details of dress are. after all what make
up good style, and it is only through
an insight into the fitness OF things, or
innate good taste, or the close associa-
ton with the niceties Of life that one

Costly clothes Will not give good
style unless taste is exercised in Sc
lecting them; on the other hand. good
taste with moderate expenditure may
bring admirable results. For instance
I am sure you all know some one who

you, comes only through knowledge
of these details combined with an
equal proportion of good taste. The
little things on which d woman's good
style so largely depends; for instance.
let us take the matter of appropriate
hats:
The dressed woman who knows
'-whaa is correct" will never wear a
hat that is inappropriate to her cos
tune. With a tailored suit a simple
hat should be chosen-one that is in
keeping with a short skirt, and not to
be upset by wind or rain. For an
afternoon gown with a long skirt. and
a silk or lace bodice. a more dressy hat
is suitable, no matter how simple in
style and design: while for evening
and theatre wear a larger, lighter hat
is admissible-one, perhaps, that is
made of lace. tulle or silk. encircled
| by a plume.

FOR MADAM AND MADEMOISELLE
BY
FOR
Fashion FanCieS

With the tailored suit and the stiff
little morning hat. veil with plain
mesh should be worn, pinned neatly to
the hair in the back or caught in the
barette. 1t should be one that really
keeps the hair tidy and that looks as
though it belonged to the woman, the
hair and the hat. Again, with small,
close fitting toque for travelling a plain
veil should be chosen, and besides this
drop-ven of silk chiffon in some
serviceable color which will save the
eyes from the glare. This veil may
be chiffon. or Of the lightest weight
silk wolfe finished with a place around
the crown and may hang loosely, or the
ends may be caught by pin at the
back Of the neck. When longer, 1t is
laid over the hat, crossed in the back
and tied in a bow at one side; this
arrangement is used more especially for
travelling, driving and motoring. For
motoring there are still other wells
that are made of soft, lightweight
pongee; these are fitted to the brim
OF the hat and hang loose from the
ton to fit over the back of the hat
With an afternoon hat a large veil of
lace. or plain-meshed tulle with a
fancy border. is appropriate for an
older woman; while the net one may
be worn by any but young girls. This
style of veil suits the size and character
of an afternoon hat, and should be
draped around the crown and arranged
loosely. SO that it may be thrown back
easily when desired.

three spot disappeared and beneath it
lay the ace as the king had lain on
that other wager. 1t spelled utter ruin
to Glenister. He raised his eyes blind

the room was shattered by a sudden
crash. Cherry Malotte had closed her
check rack violently, at the same in

Glenister half rose, overturning his

Hints to the Housewives

"a pound more for the white and not
enough OF either should be used to
make great difference in expense.
Food of which the First Cost is
More may be cheaper eventually be-
cause it contains more nourishment.
Chickens drawn. with heads and feet
removed, are a trifle cheaper at eigh-
teen cents a pound than those undrawn
without the removal of heads and
feet, at sixteen cents; and, moreover
the chances of wholesome, healthfuI
conditions are greater with the chick
ems dressed.
The Economy of Using Canned Veg
etabIes is TO be questioned in summer
when the fresh ones are cheaper In
the season of fresh vegetables peas at
a dollar and a half a bushel, allowing
a third of a cupful to a person, cost
about half a cent a meal for each
person, while a can of peas at fourteen
cents. which secures a good but not
the finest quality, costs each meal
about a cent and half to a person.
OF course. the chief argument for can
ned vegetables in the summer is tina t
| less time is required in their prepara-
| ton. Even in winter, fresh vegetables
such as onions, carrots. parsnips, tur-
nips. satisfy. celery, cabbage and
squash, are preferable where possible.

thirty cents; a dozen can rubbers, five
cents; total expense, two dollars and
