Getting Better.

Miss Belle Butler, of this city, who
was quite i'll at Bluefeld, w. Va;
where sheywas connected with a large
millinery establishment, came home
on Tuesday morning. Her illness was
caused by sticking a very small piece
of wire in, her right thumb. The
wire was covered whit green paper
and must have been very poisonous,
as the thumb began to swell imme-
diately after the wire entered 1t, and
in few hours Miss Butler was dan
gerously sick. Blood poison then set
in, and for several days the young
lady was extremely i'll. Several
operations were performed on, her
hand and arm, and now she is slowly
recovering. Miss Butler says the
people of Bluefield were extremely
kind to her while she was sick there
and that she will never forget them.

LEVER HAS BEEN SICK
And Everybody Seems to Miss Him
C,,,,,asnondapt

says SoIhSopoS'
The washington correspondent Of
The News and Courier says Represen-
tative Lever has been greatly missed
from his accustomed place in the
House during the past week. His
enforced absence has been noted by
many people, who have asked where
the little Congressman from South
Carolina has gone. When told that
he was ill, there have been many ex-
pressions of regret and sympathy.
Mr.. Lever is friend of the news
paper man, and all of the Southern
press boys know there will be some
thing worth writing about when he
is around. He likes the newspaper
men, and they are fond of rhim. He
has never reached the state when he
felt too proud to come out Of the
House when sent for and say that he
had no news when asked for it If he
had none. Nor has he ever sent a
man away feeling other
than better for having seen him. He
is the correspondents friend always.

CLEANING OILY HAIR.
How to Treat the Scalp For This
Defect.

Defect.
In washing an oily scalp special treat
ment Is necessary if the abnormal con-
dition of the glands that causes the ex-
cess of oil Is to be checked. Before
beginning the shampoo rub into the
scalp to absorb the oil mixture made
of one ounce Of soft waite" and one
raw egg beaten together. Then walsh
the scalp with clear warm water.
Another excellent cleanser for oily
hair is made from quillia bark. TO one
half pint Of boiling water add one-half
ounce Of auillia bark. that may be
bought at any druggists. Let this
stand, but not on the stove. until cool.
Shake at intervals. Strain and use as
soap.
Equal parts Of green soap and CO.
logne make an excellent shampoo for
scalp with distended glands. The
preparation should stand for twenty
four hours, shaking occasionally.
Any one Of these three cleaning
agents should be selected by woman
who is afflicted with oily hair, and 1t Is
worth while repeating that. under no
condition should shampooing ibe done
oftener than once In three weeks, and
once month Is apt to give more bene-
fetal results.
A mistake frequently made in treat
ing oily scalps Is the use Of tonics that
are overastringent, for these Will con-
tract the glands. too quickly, having
precisely the same effect that too dry
ing applications cause.
An excellent tonic to be put on every
night in connection with massage or
the scalp is made of two drains each
of spirits of rosemary, spirits of thyme
and alcoholic tincture Of cantharides,
one dram of bicarbonate Of soda, one
dram of oil Of mace, seven drops eacn
of oils Of nutmeg and cinnamon and
half an ounce each Of violet ammonia
and cologne. Into the cologne put the
three oils and dissolve the soda in the
first two spirits.
Mix the two combinations and add
the tincture and ammonia last. Ii the
total quantity does not make hVe
ounces, add cologne until that measure
Is complete. Should there be any sore
ness Of the scalp this cannot be used
as the ammonia will cause smarting
In its place may be applied tonic
made Of one-half ounce of alcoholic
| tincture Of cantharides. three-Quarters
| of an ounce each Of spirits Of rose
mary. glycerin and aromatic vinegar
and one and one-half ounces OF rose
| water

The Making Of a Journalist.

When Joseph B. McCulagh was edi-
tor of the st. Louis Globe Democrat he
was annoyed by member of the staff
who was continually late. But the
young man always had an excuse-he
oversight, they failed to call him, the
cars were blocked. etc.
Finally McCullugh issued an order
that no more excuses would be accept
ed and that Unless the young man
came in on time he was to be dis
charged.
On the very next day the ,loiterer was
tardy again by forty-Gve minutes. He
was sent to Mr.. A1cCullagh.
"Well," said McCullagh. "you know
what's going to happen to YOU"
II suppose so, but assure you it
wasn't my fault"
you've put in about every possible
excuse. but before | fire you ! would
like to know, just for curiosity, what
your excuse is"

termined to get to the office in time.

worthy of her regard. Her hands
may be stained by dish washing

Ink. but it is an honest AMI helping

DIRECTORS OF THE LOCAL BASE
BAIL CLUB HARD AT WORK
For Some Time and a Good Strong
Team win Be Organized and Put

Team VIII be OFssahiAeO ahu Fut
i'm the Field.
In.writing to his paper about local
base ball matters the Orangeburg
correspondent of The News and Cour-
ier says since it was definitely decided
that orangeburg will be in the State
League this year very little hot air"
has emanated from this vicinity. but
this fact is not indicative of diminu-
alton of interest on the part Of the
local fans. ~
The management has been steadily
at work and satisfactory progress has
been made. It has been decided not
to select g manager unit the entire
team has reported, when the most
available man of the aggregation will
probably be designated for that posi-
ton.
In the meantime the directors are
looking after affairs. A number OF
players wish to come here for a try
out and several of last seasons men
have not been heard from since the
receipts for their contracts were re-
turned. These have been notified
that unless they signify their intention
of keeping their contracts, when
transportation will be sent them, they
will be reported to the national sec
retary.
Cook, who played third on last
years team, was offered the manage
ment, but from what can be learned
he is now playing independent ball
and will not report. However, he has
been notified as to the steps which
viii be taken, and perhaps will
change his mind rather than be
b1ack-listed. Several men are at
ready here and the whole crowd IS
expected by May ].
Had il become known earlier IN
the season that the town was to nave
base ball a different location for the
park would have been secured one
more accessible to the business part
of the city, but it is now too late 70
consider change, so, for this season
at least, the games will be pulled ON,
as heretofore, on the State College
grounds. When the season opens on
the 18th of May Orangeburg will, as
usual, be found with the goods.
