PRACTICE OF SUSPENDING PUN
ISHMENT NOT LEGAL.
Those Convicted Must Serve Sentence
Unless Pardon Is Granted by the
Governor.

Columbia. April 1O.-The supreme
court Of South Carolina has ruled
that a circuit judge has no power to
suspend a sentence on conditions af-
ter it is pronounced. The court has
also ruled that a sentence so suspend
ed may be enforced even after the
expiration Of the period of i'm
prisonment set in the first instance.
This ruling which Is considered one
Of the most important ever delivered
by the supreme court, will do away
with the custom of suspending SEN
tences practiced by every circuit judge
in the State.
This point, which was decided by
the supreme court in passing on the
case of the State VS.. Abbott and Dear
man. seems to have gone unobserved
by most people. at least so far as has
come to public notice. Attention was
called to this yesterday by Alfred
Wallace. Jr.. a careful student of
current law, who pointed out the opin-
ion in the latest number Of the ad-
vance sheets Of the South Carolina
State reports.
The opinion was written by Asso-
ciate Justice Woods in the case of
the State against Abbott from Spar
tanburg county.
Under a plea of guilty to an indict-
ment for gambling, Edward l.. Abbott
and Frank Dearman were convicted
and Judge Purdy delivered the fol-
lowing sentence: ut is the sentence
and Judgment Of the court that the
defendants, E. l.. Abbot and Frank
Dearman do each pay fine Of $50
and do each perform hard labor upon
the public works Of Spartanburg
county for one year, or each be i'm
prisoned In the Jail Of said county
or the State penitentiary. at hard Ia
Dor for one year. Upon the payment
or the fine imposed above, this SEN
tence will be suspended as to either
or both defendants paying their fines
respectively, as to Imprisonment, dur
ing the good behavior of the defend
ants, respectively"
The defendants paid their fines and
have since been pardoncd by the gov
ernor.
In July. 1910, orders were made by
w .B. Gruber, special Judge, reciting
that 1t had been made to appear to
the court that Abbott and Dearman
had violated the terms on which the
sentence Of imprisonment was sus-
pended and requiring the defendants
to show cause why the stay as to
the sentence heretofore imposed
should not be revoked and the said
sentence fully enforced" In their re-
turn Abbott and Dearman took the
position that there was nothing before
the court to show that they had vio-
lated the condition on which the SEN
tence had been suspended Testimony
was taken to prove that the defend

YOUR OWN COOK

If black coffee is served later cups
with the sugar basin should be on Il
fancy tray. The pot of course will
be in the kitchen. After dinner carry
the tray, with coffee cups, etc, to the
sitting room and drink there instead
of the dining room, where other dishes
on the table might cause confusion.
In the kitchen everything should
be ready for the food. so when taking
up the meal there will be no delay.
For example. soup may be in the
plates on the table when your guests
enter the dining room. This is cas-
lily done by bringing it in just before
You announce dinner. Plates for the
next course should be in the kitchen
to keep warm, but If all are in read

MUST LEARN TO DANCE.

The following from the Indianapolis
News is of interest to many here:
IN have TO learn the barn dance.
If | am going out in society" said a
man last week in anticipation of the
kindergarten charity ball given Mon
day evening. You are all out of
date" was the response. They are
not dancing the barn dance this year."
and he found his informant was right
The barn dance was not on the pro-
gram for the charity ball, but there
was a new style of dance that made
the man that wanted to learn the barn
dance feel that he was indeed all out
of date.
While the sedate and elderlies were
carefully Waiting or two-stepping in
measured movement and in the direc-
ton of the right at the edge of the
hall, the members of the younger set
We're going at a skipping rate through
the center of the hall and in all the
open spaces. They made great long
slides and the hands were spread out
as far as they could reach. Tall men
with short girls leaned over to reach
them, and the tall girls with short
men did the same. The plain, GO
slow folk opened their eyes, and some
tried TO venture on the new step and
some sat down in despair TO find them
selves not up to the tricks of the latest
dancers.
Il thought | knew the waltz and two
step in every phase" said one man.
but I'll have to begin over and 60 TO
dancing school if this thing keeps up"
You'll not find that taught in dane
ing school," came the answer. Don't
you know the effervescence of youth
is not in your old bones?"
We'll, | guess wou are right | am
having a good enough time as it is.
for have not had a lack of good part
ners tonight. I'll go to Miss B. this
minute TO dance my way And he did.
Talking about that same ball a per-
son attending said she heard consid-
cradle about hard times. but she had
come to the conclusion it was not hard
times or high prices, but the women's
extravaganza in dressing and keeping
of automobiles that had made money
seem scarce. The gowns at the ball
were gorgeous, both in color. elabor-
ateness and material. The finest of
lace robes, the most expensive of silk
and satins-though It must be said
there is not a great quantity in any of
them-embroidered in gold or glitter
ing with squins and jewels were worn.
A guest owes a duty to a charity ball
ment attractive with clothes, and the
color and glitter of the gowns made
this ball distinctive, one of the most
brilliant the kindergarten has ever
given.

Deep Seated Cough
CURED IN 5 HOURS
New Homemade Syrup.
From Boston Press.

Progress in medical compounds new
er ceases. and now it is stated by a
prominent medical man that any deep
seated cough or cold on the lungs can
be actually cured in five hours by the
clock. Opium and morphine have been
resorted to in the past. as relief meas
ures. But now it is learned that the
system must be treated to rid it of
inflammation and congestion. A tonic
laxative cough syrup does the work so
quickly and thoroughly as to be al
most magical. What heretofore has
taken weeks to cure can be accom-
pllshed in hours. Get this formula
filled or mix it at nome and always
keep it on hand: One-half ounce fluid
Wild cherry bark, one ounce compound
essence cardiol and three ounces
syrup white pine compound. Shake
the bottle and take twenty drops every
half hour for four hours. Then take
One-half to one teaspoonful three or
four times day until the system is
purified and toned up. Give your
children less according to age. One
filling will usually cure whole family.

BILE Catarrh Cure

Pour few drops of HYOMEI (pro-
nounced High-o-me) into the hard rub
Der inhaler and you can then breathe
into the lungs the very same antisep-
tic, germ killing air as you would
breathe in the Australian forests of
eucalyptus, where catarrh is unknown.
And HYOMEI is so pleasant TO use;
you'll like to use it; when you breathe
it the effect on the infiamed catarrh
infected and germ ridden membrane
is soothing and healing.
In five minutes you get such Won
derful relief that you will know that at
last you have a cure for catarrh.
A HYOMEI outfit which consists of
one bottle OF HYOMEI. a hard rubber
pocket inhaler, medicine dropper
and simple instructions for use, costs
only $1.00 and extra bottles OF HYO-
Mel, if afterward needed, so cents.
Besides catarrh, remember that HY-
OMEI is guaranteed TO cure asthma,

throat, or money back. HYOMEl is

mess there should be no confusion in
bringing on the second course.
Salad plates may be on the tray. the
salad arranged on each, if you like.
That method saves serving at the ta-
BILE later, but ii the salad is on the
until you are ready.
To avoid confusion do not serve
many courses when you are both cook
and hostess. Four courses. and pre-
ferably three are enough. If You have
no maid that fact presupposes simpli-
city OF living. and more than four
courses at a meal make ii elaborate.
and as YOU do not wish to appear os-
tentatious the meal must be compari-
lively plain.
For four courses, or three all the
small silver may be put on the table
when the latter is laid for the meal.
Finger bowls are expected and can be
served without trouble.
A dolly is put on a dessert plate,
one for eahc person. The spoon or
fork required for the sweet is also
placed on the plate, beside the bowl.
These plates may be arranged on a
buffers tray, placed at one side of the
room, or on the sideboard. so when the
course preceding the dessert is over
to put the dishes, etc, on the table
in their proper places is not long or
difficult task.

Thunder and Rain.

Quite a severe thunder storm
visited this section early Monday
morning, which was followed by a
general downpour of rain. The
rain has continued more or less
since and seems to be general all
over the county, bringing to an end
our long continued drouth. While
no damage is reported here as a
result of the electrical display, it
came near causing a serious time
at Lexington. A telephone pole
a short distance out from there on
the Burchell road was struck and
converted into kindlng wood and
the wires ripped off of the poles
for some distance. This caused
the phones in the stores of W. f.
Barnett q Co. and Leach Bros. to
burn out and the switch board in
the former place was put out of
commission. Leach Bros. store
was set or fire and water had to be
resorted to to put it out.
