Being Different from Others.

Have you ever ielt tina somehow
you were not exactly like other peo-
pie, that although fashioned in the
same mould and endowed with the
same human attributes there is
something that makes you differ in
many essentials from those about
you? If you have experienced such
feeling and are SO unfortunate as
to give way to it to any marked de-
gree. the chances are that you are
laying the foundations for future
serious handicap. believing our
selves TO be superior to those with
whom We are thrown in contact is
naturally one of the most distress
ing mental conditions imaginable,
for not only do We in this way
imperil our own happiness but we
make ourselves unbearable 10 9th
ers. There is so much that can be
said in condehnation Of this unwor-
thy spirit that an adequate arraigu-
ment would fill volumes, and yet,
notwithstanding this fact ii must be
admitted that society, in the broad
est sense of the word, is filled with
persons who, convinced of their
mental or. moral, or physical su-
/ periority, live their lives with the
single desire of impressing that su-
periority upon their neighbors
There is scarcely q man in whatever
station Of life>he may chance to oc-
cupy who is not at times sincerely
impressed with the fact that he is
better than this, that or the other
person. He may be possibly the las
person to admit such a belief. but
deep in his heart he knows that
such is the case
In many instances we conceive a
compassion, aS it were, for those
who appear 70 lack our natural
gifts, and very often that compass
passion resolves itself into nothing
more than a vain attempt to flaunt
our supposed superiority before the
eyes of others the eyes of others,
when all tho time, if we but knew,
those whom we disparage possess
the inner gifts and finer characteris-
tics of NATURES far beyond our com
prehension. By what right dare we
Judge of the worth of others? BY
what special dispensation do we as
sumo the task of sounding the
depts OF other lives? BY what de-
cree Of Providence do we set our
selves upon a pedestal to tower
above our fellows? Perhaps some

On February II. the Students of

that day Creatore and Sis baud gave
a matinee in the college auditorium.

Another treat came a few days
later On February 18th Ellen Ter

gave here lecture with impersona-

Her representa- tons of Ophelia was
her most thrilling acting, though
she admits thaA Imogen is her fav-

81 years old, Hut she is usually well
preserved. She does not, on account
of her age, aft each night, in fact
on this tour she stopped in only

some lawless persons mistake.
Some party was lying in wait for
another and mistook the young man
for his intended victim. The fact
/. mistake was made is not an
extenuatipg circumstance. The man
lying in ambush had murder in his
heart. He was crouching behind a
haystack armed with shotgun
ready TO do his fellow man TO
death. Whether he succeeds does
not matter. In his heart the muir
der had already been committed.
The savage spirit-like that of the
jungle or the frontier-was there
and the utter disregard of law man
ifested itself. In the upper part of
the county on the following night n
man murdered a woman and wound
ed her paramount on slight provoca-
ton. Here was another manifesto
tion of the savag ge spirit--the same
spirit OF lawlessness that prompted
the man lying In ambush on the
previous night to slay his fellow
man. On theI same night the citi-
zens of southeast Dillon were very
much disturbed by n series of gun
and pistol shots. The disturbance
bore all the evidence OF skirmish
near the firing line of battle. Guns
roared and flashed intermittently
along the public highway and there
WAS an occasional yell which ex--
pressed the deep sense of pleasure
he savage spirit experienced in Civ
ng vent to its lawless tendencies.
Persons sitting in their homes were
alarmed and terrified at such
m outbreak OF violence. 1t
eemed that the law had been
crushed aside and there was rising

Inasmuch as Dillon is one of the
leading agricultural counties Of the
State it's citizens should be interest

centre. giving it an excellent natur-
al drainage, the lands OF Dillon
county are peculiarly adapted To the
growing of the South's two greatest
products cotton and corn. and
this fact alone should appeal strong
Il to the Clemson authorities. An
other fact worthy of note is that

HAIRPIN BOXES.

Hairpins should be kept in a flat box,
with partitions COR the pins Of each
different size. From a cigarette box
can be made a small hairpin box. when
only short pins are used. by placing one
cardboard partition in the center. Some
cigarette boxes are double size. and
these are best for all practical pur-
poses There should be a small space
made at one end for the invisible hair
pins which are essential to keep the
stray locks in place, and then if the
center is divided again there will be
three partitions left in all-two Of
equal size for the heavier wire pins.
The girl who would be neat should
also keep in the top drawer Of her
dressing table a small silk bag for her
combings, and then this bag should be
carefully emptied every few days. Just
a few hairs at a time are apt to stray
from the waste basket. and nothing
is more unattractive than long loose
hairs upon the carpet. There should
also be a little combing case in the
travelling bag, for on train or steam
er there is seldom a waste basket ac
cessible. This bag is made with
six to eight-inch length of ribbon, with
two pieces of whalebone at the top.
This method of closing a bag with
whalebone instead of a brewing string
is an excellent one
