this case was brought he must have
known that the petition. being an ac-
tion for slander, was based upon
matter that was contained in the ac-
tion for divorce. that is, q matter in
which the faithfulness and chastity OF
Mrs. Sciford was concerned, and how
a high-minded and at the same time
thoughtful attorney could consent to
any connection with the Muenster case

We notice from the Greenville and

We notice from the Greenville and
Anderson papers that the suggestion
to change the schedule on the train
leaving Greenville at $50 o'clock for
columbia, so as to have it leave at
6 or $50 a. NJ, does not meet with
their approval. There has been no de-
mand on the part Of Greenwood for
the "short dog" running to Green
wood, and if it could get nothing else,
we are satisfied it would suit Green
wood better to have this train come
down earlier in the morning and the
other 90 back later in the afternoon,
and it does seem that a train running
exclusively between Greenville and
Anderson ought to satisfy the people
in that section, and that they ought
to be willing to let the train come on
to Greenwood.
Such a change of schedule as we
suggested, we believe, will satisfy a
large majority of the people along the
line between Columbia and Greenvllle,
and while it does not give any addl-
tional trains. we cannot see how It
could impair the service between
Greenville and Anderson, and we hope
that our friends in Greenville and
Anderson will be willing to take into
consideration the wishes Of the pa
irons below Belton.
The extension Of the Pullman service
as suggested, to Greenville on the morn
ing and night trains would add very
much to the comfort and convenience
of the through travel, and with these
improvements We are sure the people
Of this community would be satisfied.

do it? Think about it for moment.

The men are not thoughtful enough
of the women any way. The sorriest
woman is worth a half dozen Of the
best men. The women are more un-
selfish and self-sacrifcing than the
men and the men never stop to think
what these dear women are doing and
what they are denying themselves. I
believe if you could get the men to
stop in their mad rush longer to think
they would do a little more towards
providing the comforts and conven-
fences so necessary to the average
country home.
None Of US are as considerate as
we ought to be Of others. We think
too much of our own measly selves
and give no thought to the feelings
Of others. We do not consider.

The Idler would like to be a farm
er. I know how but did not realize
what a great privilege it is to be an
independent farmer until now | am
too old to start at anything. Then
in my young days there were not the
advantages in country life that there
are to-day. The telephone puts you IN
close touch with all the world. The
rural delivery Of mail gives you the
mail every dey. It is easy for every
farmer to have water works and elec-
tric lights in his house. What else
could be desired except better roads.
These will come whether the farmer
wants them or not and it is past my
understanding why any farmer would
oppose any method to secure better
roads. Well, they will come. The truth
is the farmer of this county as a~rule
has never been progressive. You know,
I believe that in this county we could
make more corn and cotton and every
thing on just half the acreage, If we
would cultivate better, and fertilizer
properly. That would take less labor.
The pl oft would be more.

Success is a great panacea for
MANY of the ills of human nature. The
man who is succeeding in his business
or his work is always more contented
and in better humor than the man
who is all the time cramped and can 4
meet his obligations promptly. The
farmer in this country can soon, if he
will. be independent and, therefore.
happy and contented.

As usual, the government is pro.
ceeding in the big steal by the
Sugar Trust at the little end, that
is, it seeks to punish big crime by
indicting few minor officials and
pleading inability to get at the
men ''higher up" This reminds
us Of a little story told Of an assist
tant in the, Attorney. Generals Of
fee some years ago. when he was
shown evidences of the guilt Of one
Of the big men in the insurance
scandals that were being aired at
that time and was asked to prose-
cute the case. "H-," he said,
"thst man is friendo.f mine and a
good fellow, l can't prosecute
him." Right there is the trouble
about getting the men higher up.
It turned out just that way in St.
Louis during the days when Joe
Folk was after the boodlers. Sew
eral of the grating aldermen were
sent to the pen, but all the big ras-
calls, who put up the money, were
good fellows and could not be mo-
lested.
