OUR HON e

If solid happiness we prize, within our
breast this jewel lies. And they are fools
who roam: The world has nothing to be-
stow. From our own selves our joys must
flow, and that dear hut-our home.-Cotton
And say, without our hopes, without our
fears
without the home that plighted love endears
without the smile from partial beauty won
Oh, what were man? A world without sun

Apple and Nut Salad
There is an old Spanish proverb that
in making a salad one should choose
spendthrift to measure the oil, a

it up, but it is wholly a matter of taste
with us whether we are spendthrift or
miser with olive oil.

cucumber cups is an excellent lunch

FELL INTO BURNING TRESTLE.
Train Burned Up Near Greenwood.
No One Killed.

Greenwood, April "a north
bound Seaboard fright train, consist
ing of twenty-five cars, plunged into
burning trestle over Coronaca
creek, about six miles above Green
wood, at l o'clock this morning. The
entire train was consumed by fire.
1t Is almost a miracle how all of
the train crew escaped instant death.
G. H. Hinnant, engineer, Colum-
bia; Fireman Kemp, Conductor Car
roll and brakeman were injured.
They were hurried to a hospital in
Chester.
1t Is said that a policeman here
saw two tramps board the train, and
some think that they were burned in
the fire.
Marmore Mayes, who Is running a
brickyard near where the wreck oc-
Cured, endeavored to extinguish the
burning trestle, but without avail.
He then sent several negroes with
lanterns to flag the freight, but the
engineer failed to see the danger
signal on account of the light being
dim.
Traffic will be blocked for some
time, trains being transferred over
the G. G. w. G. road.

Some Surprising Facts.

"The Fouth Estate" New York;
has been warning publishers about
the risk In allowing credit to new
medicine concerns. 1t Is said that
there have been only one or two of
the thousands of new proprietary
medicine houses that have made any
considerable money that have start
ed the past twenty years and only a
very few more that lave met with
even moderate success. 1t Is the
general impression that the business
Is Immensely profitable, while the
facts are that there Is larger per-
centaee Of failures than In any other
line. The new concerns usually start
with lots Of confidence In the merit
OF their goods and advertising, but
soon exhaust their capital, leaving
dealers who have stocked their medi-
cines with unstable goods on their
shelves. 1t is the experience of many
publishers that have accepted this
new business that they have been
compelled to charge off their bills to
profit and loss.
There are many old and reliable
medicine houses that continue to do
a good or increasing business from
year to year, but the new ones are
finding 1t more and more difficult to
become established

Our Little Shoe-Box Blind Baby.
(Sunshine Bulletin.)

(Sunshine Bulletin.)
1t seems that If it were true that
ever anybody has a charmed life
then our hMnI baby whom we have
named Arthur Valentine Lyndhurst
must be blessed in that way.
Not so long ago an automobile was
seen rushing through that part Of
NEW Jersey State where the beauti-
full city Of Lyndhurst is situated.
When going by a farm the occupants
were seen to throw out a box aimed
at pig pen near the roadside. Had
the box fallen into the pig pen it
would soon have been trampled by
the "porkers" who were gazinz out
through the boards at the noisy au-
tomobile as 1t rushed by. Fate de-
creed that the box should not land in
the pig pen, but it settled on the
boards just above and there it bal
anced, attracting the attention of a
little dog who barked his head and
tall most off in his determination to
draw the attention of the farmer to
the box.
When the shoe box was united
there lay the little blind baby with
Its bonnet strings tied tightly around
Its chin and throat, but he didn't
seem to mind; his life was charmed.
An overseer Of the poor of that
county communicated with the head
quarters Of the International Sun
shine Society. Mrs. Sutton, organizer
of the Rosebud Branch of New Jer-
sey, carried the baby to the general
| Office and there she was relieved by
Mrs. Maclntyre, who wrapped him
up and took him down to the Blind
Babies Home at Dyker Heights,
where the Superintendent and all the
blind folks have made a great pet of
him ever since.
one of the young ladies in the
Office named him Arthur, because he
was the first baby to be enrolled at
the Arthur Home for Blind Babies.
Mrs. Tergear, at the Dyker Heights
Home added Valentine because he
came as valentine to all the blind
folks already there. Mrs. Alden add
ed Lyndhurst because Of the town
near where he was found. Such a
beautiful aristocratic name will carry
the baby into the United States SEN
ate.
he Is a round, fat, roly-poly little
FELLOW and about ten months old:
perfect In form, the only blemish be-
Ing his poor little eyes that will never
see the light of the sun. lie seldom
cries and is the JOY Of the house.
Mrs. Churchill (also blind) Is
President Of the International Sum
shine Department for the Blind, on
learning his story, dedicated to him
the following beautiful verses:
A Cradle Song.
Dedicated to Baby Arthur Valentine
Lyndhurst (blind).
Lullaby, lullaby, poor little waif,
Rocked in these loving arms,
Now thou art safe
Cruelty left by the wayside to die,
Blind and so helpless
But God heard thy cry.
Suffer the little ones, forbid them
not
That means you, baby dear,
Warm in your cot.
Angels are guiding yea safe to the
fold,
Wise men and good men
Offer their gold.

Whom the world spurns.

Pete root himself against the fence in

could easily tell who the girls were.
One was Bessie Baker; the other was
