AERIAL TELEGRAPHY.
First Attempted by Amontons In the
Fifteenth Century.

Fifteenth Century.
One OF the first systems Of aerial
telegraphy was attempted in the fif-
teenth century. The originator was
Amontons, at that time considered one
of the cleverest scientists Of the world.
Yet you never hear the name nova
days In connection with that of Morse
or Bell However, Amontons develop
ed system Of signal telegraphy so
that a message could be sent from
Paris to Rome in three hours Those
who assisted in the transmission of the
message along the line were unable to
tell the nature of the message.
Posts were placed from Paris across
the Alps at consecutive points, where
men were stationed with telescopes.
Different signals, representing COM
binations of letters, were run up at
each post. The man at the other end,
seeing the signal, placed a similar one
before his post, and so the message
was carried to its destination
The key to the signal was known
only to those who sent the messages
in Paris and to the recipients thou
sand miles away. Amontons was not
encouraged in his work by the puffy,
equity functionaries Of the time and
discontinued his efforts. - Philadelphia

Won1an'ss Trials.

The bitter trail in woman's life Ii 70
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The abb
sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection is a common disap-
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even if they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
of such a childless couple when they rest
on the children of others. To them the
largest family does not seem too numerous.
In many cases of barrenneSS or child
leSsness the obstacle to child bearing is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
the part of the woman. DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfnlness to many
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
been found to be OF q surgical character,
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, over which
DR.. Pierce of the Favorite Prescription
fame presides. In all cases where chill
dren are desired and are absent, an effort
should be made to find out the real cause,
since it is generally SO easily removed by
proper treatment.
In all the various weaknesses, displace-
ments, proia psus, Inflammation and de-
bilitating, catarrhal drains and in all
cases of nervousness and debility, DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the most
efficient remedy that can possibly be used.
st has to its credit hundreds of thousands
of cures more in fact. than any other
remedy put up for sale through druggists,
especially for woman's use. The ingredi-
ents of which the wFavorite Prescription
is composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writer's on Muterid Medica of all
the several schools of practice. All the
ingredients are printed In plain English
on the wrapper enclosing the BOTTLE so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine may know exactly what
she is taking. DR.. Pierce takes his pa
tients into his full confidence, which he
can afford to do as the formula after
which the rFavorite Prescription is
made will bear the most careful exam
nation.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
best and safest laxative for women.

THE SUI FANS SCREEN.
u u Made of Tanned Human Skin
deliberately Decorated.

6ia0OFa1eIy 6eCOfaeeos
There is story told Of famous and
curious screen which occupies a promi-
nent place in the menage Of the sultan
OF Turkey. 1t is made, SO rumor hath
It, OF human skin, perfectly tanned and
deliberately fooled and embossed. and
1t has been In the royal quarters for
more than two centuries. This remark
able screen is not an evidence Of cru
city or barbarity on the part Of Tur-
keys ruler 200 years ago, but is a
memorial to twelve faithful servants
Of former sultan. At one time dur
Ing the sultan's reign 200 years ago
a wing of the palace caught fire, and
during the confagra ton much loved
member Of the sultan's family was res
cued by twelve servants. The twelve
servants persisted, some of them dying
later of their wounds and burns, so
his majesty had their skins removed
by an expert and had them preserved
In this touching though remarkable
manner. The screen is now looked up
on as part of the rulers inheritance,
and it is said that every sultan cher
ishes it almost as he would his own
royal skin.-New York Herald.

Contradictory Traits.
Herbert Paul in his book on Queen

In his love of money and his capacity
for boarding it he rivaled those wretch

such are the strange freaks in which
nature INDUCES, this mean and selfish
ntriguer was endowed with perfect

wife failed to disturb, with a brain
that no sophistry could obscure and
with a military genius before which
criticism is humbly silent.
he was treacherous even in treach-
erous age. Wholly devoid Of cruelty
and by nature humane, he is said new
er to have sacrificed an unnecessary
life. He used his fellow creatures for
his own purposes, and when he had no
further use for them he forgot their
existence. He made his plans and
carried them out with the absolute eff
cheney of sheer intelligence and the
serene implacability Of impersonal
fate.

Old Age and Work.

Old people make a great mistake
when they give up work. Many men
who have made a competency in bust
ness and feel entitled to retire from
active work find themselves declining
in health and becoming prematurely
old for want Of occupation. In most
aged persons the vital functions CON
tinue in active exercise under normal
conditions, but if the regularity and
moderation of business life are depart
ed from trouble will surely follow

BeIqium Shopkeepers.

Belgium shopkeepers generally are
dealers in miscellaneous goods. One
man in small way, for instance, sells
beer, foreign stamps, fruit, cotton, bis
cults, penknives, cheese and second
hand hair. Everywhere one finds a
mania for glazing lights. One evening
when was out saw a tremendous
light In the distance, and I thought it
must surely be an advertisement for a
music hall, When got nearer, found
that the light merely conveyed the In
telligence that sardines were sold on
the premises.

A Fine Opening.

The Kingstree Graded School
opened here Monday under most
favorable auspices. Since the
closing of the school in May
last the building has been en-
larged to meet the growing
needs of the school by putting
the auditorium into two class
rooms. An annex will be built
at once. which will contain, on
the ground floor, the auditor
ium, and on the second floor
the space will be divided into
offices. library and an addi--
tional class room. An addition
al teacher has also been elected,
the faculty being now composed
of eight teachers, as follows"
P P Bethea, superintendent; Mr.
Hallman, principal; and Misses
Ross, Stoll, Beckbam. Onslaw,
Erckmann, and Miss Campbell,
teacher OF music. The teachers
are all present and when the
bell rang Monday morning at
least 200 pupils answered the
roll call. KIngstree has an edu-

The Building Goes On.

Still the building boom goes
on. Ground has been broken
for big machinery plant to be
erected in North Kingstree, just
beyond the oil mill. This plant
will be utilized at first for a cot
ton ginnery, which is but the
first of number of enterprises
to be operated by thesame ma.
chinery. The plant will repre-
sent an investment of about
$4,000, when completed.
AS the organization of the
company has not yet been per-
fected the promoters are not
quite ready to disclose all their
plans, but We are in position
to know that the several enter
prises projected will mean much
toward the growth and develop
ment of Kingstree.
