a parting salute of twenty one guns was fired
from the shore, and as the giant ship swung
away from her moorings her great guns thun-
dered out response which echoed and re-
echoed across the harbor, and to the strains of
the Star Spangled Banner and Dixie the beau
tiful South Carolina glided away so gracefully
she hardly left ripple on the water. All

full as her parting from the lovely "City by the

of incandescent lights placed at regular inter-
walls across the street, eleven lights to an arch.
The effect is fine.
One cannot afford to come to Charleston and
not visit the famous Magnolia Gardens They
are over two hundred years old, and just at
this season are in their greatest beauty. On
reaching the rude little pier a group of negroes
of all ages are waiting to guide you through
the winding paths. If you are wise you will
accept their services, for one could easily lose
himself in this maze of Towering shrubs and
vines. There are artificial lakes crossed by
rustic bridges and the beautiful winding paths
are lined on either side with azaleas and ja-
ponieas, which grow in such profusion and size
that you are oftentimes obliged to stoop to
pass under them. Such a mass of color and
beauty is bewildering. The old Drayton man.
sion stands in the background, and the great
tomb in which the first of the Draytons in this
country is buried attracts much attention.
Then the trip there of an hour and half
sail up the Ashley river is an interesting one.
Many notable places are pointed out as you
pass. The Duelling Grounds, where ali dis

A FINE SHIPS LAST TRIP.
The Famous Shenandoah of Bath on Her
Way Around the Horn to Be Converted
Into a Coal Barge.

Into Coal Barge.
On her last flight the fine old merchant
ship Shenandoah, last of the famous quar-
tet of Sewall beauties of Bath-the Rap
pahannock, Roanoke, Susquehanna-is
now coming around the Horn for Erie
basin, graveyard of shipping, to be cut
four-master, which is considered the most
merchant marine, has been used as a coal
storage ship at Sausalito, San Francisco
bay. Fate has variously dealt with the
sisters. Fire in the South Pacific ended
the Rappahannock; fire also took the
Roanoke at Noumea, New Caledonia,
and string of hurricanes in the Coral
Sea, to the northeast of Australia, wreck
ed the Susquehanna.
The Shenandoah, second largest wood
en- square-rigger ever built and the seas
fastest sailer since the days of the clip
pers, launched at Bath, Me-, in 1890, has
career so closely connected with that
of Captain James F. Murphy that the
history of her skipper is almost that of
his ship. Captain Murphy is again, and
for the last trip, in command of his ia
nous pet, which is as responsive to his
wish as delicate thoroughbred trained
from a colt. Sixty times has Captain
Murphy rounded the Horn.
Captain Murphy began his sea career
at thirteen years of age, with his father,
and has been following it, with only brief
intervals ashore, for forty-seven years.
He says the Shenandoah is the finest ship
ever built. While she bears the biggest
cargo ever slowed under the matches of
sailing ship, she man9uvres like knock
about yacht. In the teeth of a northerly
gale in Chesapeake Bay the Shenandoah
outfooted and outpointed a fleet of Bal
timore schooners, strong on windward
work. She has often logged more than
three hundred miles day.
On her maiden voyage the Shenandoah
made sensation wherever she went.
With 500 tons of wheat below matches.
the biggest cargo ever taken out of San
Francisco in sailer, she beat the Ameri-
can ship S. D. Carleton, and two of the
smartest British ships, the Strathearn
and Balkamah, in 14,0OO-mile race to
Havre, making her destination in lO5
days. Then the Shenandoah crossed to
New York in thirty six days.
After the Spanish War started Captain
Murphy, approaching Liverpool, got his
first news from an English tramp, re-
ceiving the friendly warning that there
were torpedo boats in his path. Further
on, another British tramp passed him the
same word, although Captain Murphv
thought the first tramp had signatled
tugboats. Spain. had no torpedo boats
in those waters, but Captain Murphy
didn t. know and the hours were anxious
ones until the second tramp passed line
and towed him inside the three-mile
limit.

THE TONIC YOU NEED
IF You Are Thin, Weak and Pale,
Is the Remedy That Cused This
Massachusetts, Woman Who
Was Tired, Worn OCT
and D}seo,<rao ed.

Many people who are in chronic con-
dition of i'll health really need nothing
more than tonic.
1t is the blood that is at fault and with
the vital fluid scanty, lacking in richness
or purity, there are frequently produced
an alarming lot of symptoms all Of which
will disappear when the blood is again
built up.
The name an@mic has been given to the
condition when the blood is thin and
poor. It is a Greek word and means
simply "too little blood" The patient is
fatigued after slight exertion and the
least exercise results in shortness of
breath. 1t is a condition which always
brings on a fear of consumption and it
advances so gradually that its progress ia
seldom noticed until it is well estab-
lished.
The one remedy for bloodless condi-
ton is more blood That is why DR..
Williams Pink Pills, the great blood
maker, have accomplished so many cures.
Mrs. L. Lipman, of No. 2l0 Bryant
street, Maiden, Mass, suffered for nearly
four years from anamia. She says:
''For nearly four years suffered from
anemia, which was brought on by over
work. was very weak and thin, had
no color and my ears were transparent.
Nv blood did not seem to circulate, even
when l rubbed my hands briskly there
would be no warmth or color. l had
severe bilious attacks which were fol-
lowed by dizzy spells and terrible sick
headaches. My rest did not help me and
was always tired and worn out. I was
80 discouraged that became very nerv-
GUS and received SO little help from the
Doctors medicine that I quit taking it.
''My home was in London, England, at
the time Of my sickness and l was
treated at two hospitals. The physicians
there said I had anemia but | did not

Julia Ward Howe, in the recently pub

belief in Immortality squarely on Biblical
grounds. She holds that "the promise of
future life is held to have such promi-
nence in Christ's teachings as to bid Paul
to say that the Master brought life and
immortality to light How did He do
this? By filling the life Of to-day with
the consciousness of eternal things, of
