Tea Farming in Carolina.

The proposed protective tariff on
tea becomes laughable when it is
considered that there is only one tea
farm within Senator Tillman's ju.
risdiction, and this kept going only
through the aid of the agricultural
department, which operates an ex-
pertinent station in connection with
it, and so lessons the expense of con.
Quoting it. The total output of
this farm, after twenty years of ex.
perimentation, amounts to approx.
mately $1,000 pounds annually. The
total consumption of tea in the Uni.
ted States is about 1OO,OOO,0oO
pounds a year. The proposition,
then, is to tax the millions of domes.
tic consumers slO,000,ooO yearly
in order that the profits of this lone
South Carolina plantation may be
increased one thousand. That's all.

Monday next Capt. w. A. Collett
and his men will leave for the an
nual eneampment, which will be
held this year in, Columbia. A spe.
cial meeting Of the company will
be held in the armory Thursday
night and full attendance is urged.
Every young man who desires to go
with the company to Columbia
should attend the meeting Thurs
day night. While the military du-
ties on the encampment are heavy,
this is offset by the pleasure and
diversion that it affords. Ten days
at the capital city will be an ex-
ceedingly pleasant outing, especial
ly for the young men who have been
closely confined in stores and Off
ces. We trust that the company
will carrya large number Of repre-
sentative young men, so as to make
a creditable appearance among the
other companies Of the regiment as
was done last year Attend the
meeting Thursday NIGHT.

Speaking Without Thinking.

embarrassing statement made by a
well-known Louisville woman who
is known for saying things without
thinking"
Her daughter was entertaining a
a young man on the front porch,
and the mother was standing at the
fence talking to the neighbors next
door. In the ys i of the latter
was baby little over.a year old,
and it was trying to walk.
''You shouldn't let it walk SC
young," advised the thoughtless ma
tron. Wait until tits ! little older
I let my daughter walk when she
was about thatage and it made he1
bow-legged."
The young man began to,talk ell

Be Given to Hospitality.

True hospitality, says an ex-
change, doesnot consist in the mere
fulfllment of social obligations. 1t
is a,far holier, nobler thing than
this. 1t is the cordial heartfelt well
come of friend to our table
and rooftree, without counting the
cost. The lady of the house in for
mer times was true to her name as
the dispenser of bread. There was
always roomat her table for an ex-
ira guest. The fare was palmer than
/ it is today, but the welcome was
cordial, the hospitality spontaneous.
1t is an advantage to children to
see guests frequently in this way.
No social training can take the
place of that which child receives
in the house of parents who delight
to entertain their friends. House
holds, like individuals, become &c
centric and narrow when kept too
close to their family group.

fell in the road. There was a snow Sat
urday n ght and exposure is supposed to
have contributed to his death
The following day the Waterman at the
Glencoe mine received a message telling

The Cooper stomach man." the east

facturer of proprietary remedies, has
announced that he will take advantage
Of his visit to Salt Lake to meet the
people of this city in person to explain
his theories. He said:
There is very little the matter with
Americans other than stuffed-up, over
worked digestive organs, but there is a
surprising amount of this condition,
and in consequence most of us are half
sick large part of the time. 1 think
shall be able to prove to the people of
Salt Lake during my stay that there
would be mighty little sickness in this
city if they would guard their stomachs
as they do their pocketbooks.
My medicine is not like the marvel
Gus preparations we read about 50
much in advertisements, that will al
most bring the dead back to life. 1t is
nothing but a stomach regulator and
tonic. but it is the best thing of the
kind know of on the market today. 1t
will make a balky, overworked, peevish
stomach get down to business in about
thirty days. / will convince an awful
lot of people Of this before leave Salt
Lake.
My headquarters will be, at Smiths
Busy Corner drug store, at First South
and Main. Beginning tomorrow
Thursday. myself or my assistants
will be at this store from 10 o'clock in
the morning to s o'clock at night every
day to meet all who care to call.
MY preparation is sold on trial only
If it isn't satisfactory l don't want any
money for it. 1 viii have some one at
the store for the purpose Of allowing
those who wish to try my medicine
without charge to do So"
