SOUTH CAROLINA
CONTRACT LAWS
II Law is Declared Contrary to United
States Constitution Farmers
viii Suffer.

4 Charleston, April 1.-The constitu-
tionality Of the act Of the Legislature,
making the breach of 3 labor contract
q misdemeanor, punishable by fine
or imprisonment, will be argued this
week, probably Thursday, before
Judge Brawley in the United States
district court.
The case will come up on habeas
corpus proceedings in behalf OF two
negroes who have been serving term
in the Charleston county jail and were
recently released pending the hearing
OF the cause next Thursday. The ac-
ton is brought by Attorneys Logan
and Grace, who allege that the State
law is class legislation and q form, OF
peonage ard, therefore, in conflict
with the federal constitution. The
motion to release the negroes from
Jail by declaring the act Of the legis-
lature to be unconstitutional will be
resisted by Attorney General Lyon.
a few days ago, on instructions from
Attorney General Bonaparte, United
States District Attorney Cochran fled
petition to be permitted to intervene
in behalf Of the government and Judge
Brawley granted the motion, which
makes the gge1nment 2 party to the
suit.
The State law was enacted some
years ago, making the breach of
written contract a misdemeanor. The
law was later amended by which an
oral contract in the presence of two
disinterested witnesses was equally
binding. The law has been attacked
on several occasions in the State
courts, butt has always been sus-
tanned and this is the first time that
it has gone into the federal court.
The system of labor offers the, only
means that the farmers have in many
sections of the State to control and
hold their labor together. Some
farmers have, however, found the
law unsatisfactory, preferring not to
have labor in their employ where the
hands were held against their will,
but still the system serves good pur-
pose elsewhere and the fear of its be-
ing declared unconstitutional is
source OF much uneasiness to many
farmers.
Instances are recorded where the
law has been used for speculative pur-
poses and to the oppression OF the
Tabor, but these are few and the sys-
TEN may be said to have given salts
faction.
The farm labor is already very
scarce and generally unsatisfactory
and the action in the federal court is
expected to have further effect in
disturbing existing conditions.
South Carolina is not the only State
which has a law of the kind and in
terest in the action is not confined to
this State. The government has been
giving much attention in recent years
to peonage cases, having started the
Italian contract labor prosecutions
in the local courts few years ago,
which, however, was never carried to
successful issue and the purpose Of
the department of justice seems to he
to break up every form of peonage
and labor oppression which State
laws Or custom of communities have
inaugurated and permitted to exist
The State, End.

No matter what people say to the con-
trary, the smiling wife is an improvement
on her stern-browed sister, and the smiling
mother is the one who gathers her babies
most tenderly in her arms. A smiling
.countenanee gives a child confidence, for
children read more In looks than in
speech.
She talked kindly, but she had a cross
forehead said a little boy of a new
teacher, when he was reprimanded for not
wanting to go to school. He was afraid
of the teachers frown and nothing could
induce him TO be friends with her.
Children are not the only ones who
are Influenced by a persons expression.
"Grown-ups'' are very often affected by
a smile or a scowl. much more than they
realize or would ever admit.
If you stop to consider you will bring
to mind some occasion when you were
put at your ease BY a kindly smile and
a pleasant countenance.
Perhaps you can also remember some
time when your wits nearly left you from
fright, when you received the frown you
did not expect.
''She was so pleasant is the inscription,
/ am told, on a moss-mottled stone in a
country c~hurchyard. OF course it is an
unusual inscription, but almost any woman
might to glad to have it used after she
HdQ pdSSeu away. she was so pledSdHl
is not a bad epitaph for anyone when the
book of life is finished.
The smile is as much the sign Of good
humor as an open fire is a sign of warmth
and cheer. Try and cultivate a smile.
By that it is not meant that a woman
should go through life with a studied
smirking grin, but a pleasant, cheerful
countenance that cannot help but inspire
the greatest confidence.
Isn't it funny that so few of us know
how TO control our tempers. Someone says
something to us that offends our dignity,
and we fare up and fume and throw things
until we have expended all our
energy and leave ourselves unfit for the
duties that crowd about lis.
We finally calm down, and in our more
sensible moments begin to see the folly of
being a slave to a bad temper. We resolve
never to allow our passions to get the bet
ter of us, but, alas, not before we have
made an exhibition Of ourselves, and per-
haps ~lessened the respect our friends may
have had for us.
We are all more or less subject TO our
bad tempers, but even the most ungovern-
able temper can be brought under control
IL we only try.

IS THE TIME
TO PLANT YOUR BULBS.

Plant now any bulbs which you want in
the garden for spring, also any hardy
perennials. Be careful about shrubs.
While hardy plants, yet they frequently
need very good conditions befort starting
to grow. Poppie seed sown in October
will bloom next spring. Pansy seed are
best planted in the spring, but they make
late boomers. After taking up the flowers
this fall keep in a shaded place for a time.
Do not disturb the roots, IL this can be
avoided. Trim back geraniums, train fuch-
sias on racks and give the budding roses
the %sunnlest place in the window.

THE FAD IN BELTS.

Parisians are wearing very elaborate
leather belts, the leather being much fooled
and gilded after the fashion of old bindings
having solid gold buckles. With an in
genious eye for effect many women are
wearing them back to front, the deer
buckle coming in front, while the narrowed
one, with its holes for adjusting, goes at
the back. This plan gives a pretty slop-
ing line to the waist. The striped leather
belt is very fashionable for the moment.
The belts are of white suede and the
stripes, about half an inch wide, run across.
These have nothing at the back, and are
fastened in front with a wide square OIL
Byzantine buckla of bronze OF gold.

worked out in contrasting tones Of silk
across the front. The effect is extremely
stylish.
A tall slender vase seen at Hartdegen's
OF Tiffany glass rests in a stand or

display of elbow length gloves in plum,

of brown. They are made of choice skins
and are offered at reasonable prices.

women's woes.

But 1t only goes to prove that women
seldom connect their ailments with the
real causes or try to get at their real
cure. They fret and worry about small
matters until their heads are split
ting and the minute they begin to
feel badly they decide hat something
is wrong, and off they trot to the fam
lily physician, or wors yet, to the
neaHest druggist to procure a bottle of
Somebody's Fayorite Remedy for
Everything Under the Sun.
1t never seems to enter their heads
that they are tired, and overworked,
and under too much mental strain.
Now, men seem to take things easily,
Perhaps they are just as disturbed
over small things as we are, but If 1t
is true they hide it well. And l be-
lleve there is hardly a man who does
not. take time to eat a meal in COM
fort, no matter how much of a strain
he is under. If women could do like
wise, there would not be so many
patients in the sanatoriums for ner-
vous diseases.
When they are excited they either do
not eat at all or they bolt their food
in solid Jumps. They just do not know
how to COO down.
