These Do-Notting Wives.

Really now, Mr.. Farmer, are you
"toting fair'' with your wife? Of
course after a hard days plowing you
may be tired, but you need not be
cross. If you have an ugly temper do
not make the wife and children feel
sorry that the day has ended and
brought you into the home. Of course
she has no cause for worry, for she
has done nothing all the long Gay ex-
cept make fire in the stove, cook
breakfast, wash the dishes, milk a
COW or two, churn, feed the young
chickens and pigs, look after the Sit
ting hens, gather vegetables for din
ner, set the table, draw all the water
she uses, cook the dinner, wash the
dishes, water the cow, feed the chick
ems again, take a spell of hoeing in
the garden, put in an hour cleaning
the kitchen and house, drive up the
cow and milk, get supper, wash the
dishes and set the table for an early
breakfast. Then she has to settle
down for an hours darning and patch
ing the children's clothes, or assisting
them with their lessons. That is
about all she has to do while you are
toiling in, the field with time to talk
an hour or two with any neighbor
that passes by.-Ex.

FLUE CURING IMPROVES TOBACCO LIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
FIue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is fue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, fimsy, heavily
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this Aue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind of tobacco 10w are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew
ers formerly bought costing from 75c.
to $1.ooper pound; Schnapps is sold
at soc. per pound in SC. cuts, strictly
10 and IS cent plugs.
The Lexington dispatch. [volume] (Lexington, South Carolina) 1870-1917, 1907-04-17

There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and fue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called fue cured. In fue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
fues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process developes in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy Aue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
of high grade, fue cured tobaccos!

victim of singular accident yester-
day afternoon.
The man, who is puddler's help

leaving the plant for home. He had
scarcely more than started when he
became aware that one of his limbs
was blee ling profusely. An investiga.
tion revealed that blood vessel had
been ruptured and the loss of blood
was appalling.
The workmen were very much alarm

an emergency, so that while some ad-
dressed themselves to the task of find
ing doctor, others applied such reme-
dies as were at hand.
DR.. Paules quickly arrived, but in

HIGH OFFICIALS
visit LOCAL CAMP

Colonel @. W. Eckman camp, No.
%, Sons of Veterans, at its next reg
ular meeting, Thursday night, will
have with it three Of the most distin
guished members of the order-State
Commander Ramsey, of Reading /;
State Secretary McNulty, of Philadel-
phia, and Major General Reed of the
Sons of Veterans Reserves.
The meeting will be open to all sons
of veterans, as well as veterans and
grandsons of veterans. 1t is much re-
gretted by those who have the welfare
of the order at heart that Col. @. W.
Eckman camp has not grown more
rapidly. Nowhere in the State is there
more excellent material out of which
to build up strong and prospe ons
camp than is found in Danville. 1t is
fact pointed to with considerable
pride that many of those eligible fill
positions of responsibility and are
ranked in the best society of Danville.
In Milton as we'll as other places that
might be named, where strong and
prosperous camps exist, the best young
men of the town are members of the
Sons of Veterans. 1t is believed that
all that is needed therefore, is to get
the young men of Danville properly
interested, when the growth of tine
order here will keep pace with that of
camps elsewhere in the State.
The visitation on Thursday night is
designed expressly for the purpose of
arousing an interest in the order of
Sons of Veterans among those who are
eligible to membership, veterans and
grandsons of veterans as well as sons
of veterans, and it is hoped that all
those included in either of the above
classes will be present at the meeting.
A large attendance is desired.
Orvis Oswald is commander of Col
onel @. w. Eckman camp No. 90, Sons
of Veterans. John P. Patton and +.
M. Harrington are past commanders.

When the judges salary bill was
passed in the session of 1908 there was
provision that judges should receive
no compensation, except travelling ex-
penses, for holding court in other dis
tricts to which they might be called
Previous to that time they got $40
day for services in other districts, and
one judge was known to draw from
the State treasury nearly 80, 900 a year
for sitting in outside districts. By a
bill introduced by Senator Langfitt, of
Allegheny, the practice of paying itin-
Grant judges is to be revived. IL auth
orizes the chief justice of the Supreme
Court, at the request of any court or
bar association, TO designate judge

Our Industries are BUSY,

1t is fact that may not have occur
red to every person that all our in
dustries are running along at their
full capacity, indicating that we ought
to be enjoying the high water mark of
prosperity.
This is a condition unusual at this
season of the year except during periods
of great prosperity. 1t is significant,
too, that not only are our industries
in operation but also that the iuost of
them are rushed with orders 1t would
be interesting to know just how many
persons in Danville are working stead
lily taking in those who are employed
at the iron works, and other big IN
dustries as we'll as the silk mills, stock
ing factory and other smaller est
Adjustments. Surely no one needs to
be idle.
The conditions are such as to insure
the maximum of comfort and happl-
ness to all classes at season of the
year when there is often scarcity of
employment and when the demands
upon the family exchequer are the

Poor SIeighing.

Sleighing is reported as rather poor,
especially OH the country roads. To
begin with the roads at many places
were rough, while as time wears on,
under the influence of the sun, the
snow each day is becoming thinner.
On the whole, however, sleigh can
get along much better than a wheeled
vehicle and sleighs largely predomin-
ate.
The r. f. d. carriers are very CRATE
full for any change that eliminates the
mud and rainy weather that were fact
ors during the greater part of the win
ter. AS general thing the carriers
are using sleighs to cover their routes
and they are not disposed to find any
fault with the sleighing.
