Two Kinds of Doino,

A subject that naturalists are al
ways talking about and never coming
to any conclusion about is the differ
ence between instinct and reason. We
are accustomed to say that animals do
things by instinct and man by rea.
son. But 1t is quite sure that some
animals do some things by reason and
by instinct. And 1t also seems quite
sure that there is no sharp dividing
line separating these two kinds OF do.
Ing. Perhaps one of the most useful
distinctions between instinct and rea.
son is to consider as instructive all
those things that animals can do with.
ont having had chance to learn them
by imitation or by being taught or by
any other kind Of experience: and to
consider as acts OF reason those things
that animals learn to do and that they
think about while they are doing them.
at least while they are doing them for
the first few times. This distinction
sounds pretty clear In theory. but the
difficulty is to know how to apply 1t in
practice.-St. Nicholas.

ITS DISCOVERY AN ACCIDENT
smokeless Powder Achieved as Result
Of Search for an Unusually
High Explosive.

The idea is very general that smoke
less powder. In being practically
smokeless. achieves its greatest end.
but as a matter of fact its smokeless
feature Is incidental and was an acci-
dent.
When the idea of modern long.
range guns was conceived 1t was at
once apparent that the old black pow.
der lacked explosive force. and thou
sands Of experiments were made with
various chemicals to procure a powder
of high explosive properties. and this
was at last accomplished. When the
new powder was tried. much to the
surprise of everyone it was found that
practically no smoke followed the ex.
plosion. though this could. of course.
have been predicted had the question
ever arisen. The volume of smoke
from black powder is due mainly to
the quantity OF charcoal In the powder.
an ingredient not found In the smoke.
less" explosive.
Smokeless powder. though n great
boon to sportsmen. is OF questionable
value on the battlefield. so far rs its
smokelessness Is concerned The
smoke clouds of old days were fire..
quently most advantageously used to
cloak movements OF troops and bat
teries. and really interfercd with the
enemy much more than with the
troops creating the smoke.

Rural Route Carriers Must Not
Carry Fire Arms

Rural mail carriers in Colorado have
been notified from department head
quarters at Washington, through Il
circular letter, that In the future they
must not carry guns when on their
trips. Complaints have been made
that the delivery OF mail has been
delayed while the carriers practiccd
target-shuoting or searched for wild
game in an effort to evade paying the
price OF meats. Whether the order is
general or limited to Colorado because
OF complaints from residents OF this
section. is not made known. The
presence Of Il gun In mail carts will be
taken as prima facia evidence and

Rev, Whittie And His Camel Ride

BY the special request OF large
number of the business men and citi-
zens OF Ordway, DR.. w. A. Whittle
will deliver his celebrated lecture on
"A Camel Ride of 500 Miles through
the Far Fast" at the opera house on
Friday night, March 4th.
This lecture has been many times
delivered in England and New Eng
land and throughout the country.
Concerning this lecture the press
from New York to New Orleans is a
volume Of praise.
The Detroit Free Press mich. says:
"rhe spacious auditorium of the Y.
NJ. G. A. was crowded last night to
listen to w. a. Whittle, the distin-
guished Oriental lecturer. For wit,
vivid description and burning elo-
uuence, one seldom hears anything to
surrass this lecture"
The Louisville Courier journal says:
"Mr. W. a. Whittlc is undoubtedly a
good lecturer, as is shown by the fact
that he attracts and holds large audi
ences night after night"
The Austin (Texas) Statesman: "As
a word painter we have not heard
Prof. Whittle's equal. He had his
audience in Il perfect whirl of en-
thUsiasm."

Since our last issue we learned that
the household goods Of J. II. Trottcr
were shipped to Canon City with those
of E. T.. Floyd. Mr.. Trottcr left Ord

side on their small farm close in and
take life easy. Being active members
in the Methodist church here, they
will be greatly missed in church cir

Plans Many improvements

At last the dingy waiting room at
the Missouri Pacific station is to re-
ceive attention. Senator Casaday
was In the general Office on Tuesday
OF this week and received Instructions
to make the Official announcement
that extensive repairs were to be
made at the local station within u
short time. The PARTITION between
the present inadequate waiting room
and the living rooms is to be removed,
| making one fair-siZed waiting room,
the walls will be calcimined, every
thing re-painted and put in tirst-class
condition. A new platform will be
laid around the station, u coat OF paint
applied TO the exterior and electric
lights Installed on the plat form. This
is good news for all who have had
occasion to spend their time at the
station waiting for trains. While 1t
Is IL matter that should have received
attention years ago, yet 1t will be none
the less appreciated. Wonder why
they could not 60 just little farther
and place the depot on this side OF
the tracks and do away with the big
gest nuisance OF all-thc blocking of
the Main street crossing by west
bound trains. We believe this matter
could be brought to the attention of
the officials in such way that the
desired change would be made. Won't
hurt to try.

The families OF W. w. Lappon and
E. Allspaugh departed Monday night
for Winfield, Kansas, after lOading
their car of household goods ready for
shipment. Game to the last, "Old
Bill" gave this parting shot shortly
before boarding the train for the
Sunflower state: "Yes. we're going
down where they have something to
eat and where II don I cost two prices"
Kansas always did have n champion
IN this man OF tonsorial fame, and
will no doubt welcome his return.

FOR YOUR HEALTH's SAKE
PUBLIC HEALTH LEGISLATION

Many Of the states In the union

Of this aII-pervadino foo to human

There is, too, the broad human

demands that those stricken with
consumption and who are too poor
to provide for themselves the
needed care and treatment be CIV

at the stage when their cases may
be cured.
But over and above all other
considerations is the aII.lmportant
demand that tuberculosis be

CHILDREN RUN OVER,
Bicycle Delivery Boys Are Reckless
And Regardless of Others.

The reckless and fast manner in
which some Of the colored grocery de-
livery boys ride their bicycles around
Sumter is going to cause some of them
to get hurt if the thing is not put
stop to. Two white children were
run over by bicycles ridden by these
young Apaches on Saturday afternoon
on Broad street and feeling is run
ming pretty high and bitter over the
affair. Another child was run over
on this same street a few days before
by one of these same cOlored boys
The first thing some of these indiffer-
ent boys know some outraged father
whose little one has been knocked
down by one of these boys will get
out and kill or seriously injure one Of
the riders. So said a gentleman from
Broad street today whose children are
in danger.
The police force of Sumter is not
near big enough to cover the entire
city as it should be policed to prevent
such conduct. The policemen are do
ing all that any set Of men can do,
and have already done fine work to-
wards Suppressing fast and dangerous
bicycle riding. But one of these days
some father whose helpless and inno-
cent little child has been injured by
the unfecling young brutes referred
to above will forget himself and so
after the miscrcant in way which
will not be conducive to the health
of the bicycle rider who does not care
caution their delivery boys often along
this line.
