in which there appears to be live peo-
pie. There are evidently few in

When Contractor E. II. Leslie puts
up that new building for Copeland
Bros. on the old Baltimore corner, "
it is hoped other new buildings will
follow.
At the GouldlDrexel wedding in
New York last Tuesday two Of the
presents were checks for about $780,
900 each. That beats 80 cents, but
some 30-cent brides and grooms are
just as happy if they only knew it.

At the meeting in Laurens this
week DR.. J. H. McIntosh, Of Colum-
bia, was elected president Of the
State Medical association. IF a cit
izen of Newberry doesn't get the
head Office of a State association these
days a native does. NeWberry fur
nished him after all. The State
Medical society is in good hands.
Last week it was stated in low
country paper that the Georgetown
farmers were crying for rain. 1t
would be pity if the tears Of the
farmers couldn't bring rain. The
Newberry farmers didn't cry for it,
but they got rains. No doubt some
Of them prayed for rain and felt like
crying, but the Newberry farmers
can control themselves better than
the Georgetown farmers.
Some time ago in speaking Of Chief
of Police C. ". Bishops endeavors
to keep tobaoco-chewers from spit
ting on the sidewalks, The Herald and
News remarked that they ought to
think Of the ladies and expectorate
in the middle of the road, if they ex-
peet to rate high. Now comes the
News and Courier and asks: Chow
can men who chew tobacco expeetor-
ate as gentlemen?''
A certain man in the city takes
great pride in his garden. Last Tues
day afternoon he bought 5 cents
worth of tomato plants and set them
out to his satisfaction, but just after
he had arranged them so carefully the
hail broke forth. They say that man
ran out into the hail storm and pull
ed up every one Of those tomato
plants. Next morning he was seen
replanting the same bunch. That's
the way to have a garden.
Keep off the grass on the court
house lawn. What is the use in hav-
ing it worked if everybody is going
to cut across instead Of walking in
the paths? Paths are made to walk
in, not to look at. Look at the grass
on the lawn and trample not upon it:
Some people will spoil beautiful
piece to save two steps. Some Of
these same people are trying to cut
across and take a nearer path to
heaven, away from the straight road,
but they Will miss ii.
