Sifted Pearls.

Some years ago the sultan Of Sulu
learned that the pearl fishermen were
reaping big profits. he supplied his
revenue collectors with sleeves and or
dered that all pearls found near Sulu
must be tested in these sleeves. Those
that dropped through were to be re-
tanned by the fishermen; those that re-
manned in the sleeves were TO belong to
the sultan for taxes. 1t nearly ruined
the pearl fisheries.

In Russia it is a mark of distinction
for a coachman to have a very rotund
figure. The drivers of fashionable car
riages appear at first to be abnormally
stout. AS a matter Of fact, this ap-
pearance is due to the skillful padding
of the coachman's livery. The padding
is done with cotton. and some remark

CELEBRATE KINGS MOUNTAIN.
Gaffneyites Preparing to Honor Rev.
OIutiOnary Heroes.

Gaffney, Sept. 24.-The people OF
this portion Of South Carolina are
evincing the liveliest interest in the
plans for the celebration of the 1920
anniversary of the battle of Kings
Mountain. This was ore of the most
decisive battles of the Revolutionary
War and that fact has never grown
dim in the minds of the people who live
in this particular portion of the two
Carolinas. Forefathers of people OF
this section fought and died in the
memorable battle, and for that reason
the date carries with it recollect1ons
which can never be forgotten.
Each year plans are made for the
celebration of the day and this year
will mark one of ne most brilliant
events that ever occurred. The cele-
bration will be held This year on Oc-
tober I, at Kings Mountain, and the
following very interesting programme
will be rendered:
10 a. m.-Parade.
II a. m.-Address, Battle of Kings
Mountain" by Judge letter G. Pritch-
ard; adjournment.
? p. m.-Address on "Red Menship,"
by the Hon. Plummer Stewart.
p. m.-Laying cornerstone, school
building, address by DR.. ]. H. Harms,
president Newberry college, assisted
by Capt W. T. R. Bell, the Rev. j. D.
Mauney, the Rev. Plato T. Durham and
Walter Hall.
Music for the occasion will be fur
nished by the 18th infantry band, OF
Fort Mcpherson, Georgia.
People from all over the two Caro-
linas will probably attend.

Bacon from Denmark.

1t is interesting if not important TO

Whethe, go WI f'n.: his ,'rDfi'a-
able under existing tariff conditions is
doubtful. 1t is not surr:islrg, however
that temptation should be strong for
European agricolthrists to invade a
market in which prices have risen
with skyrocket speed within the past
fifteen years. Surelp the invitation is
strong to ssll here the meat annd dairy
products Of lands thar are noGe too
profitable, since the American farmer
is getting nearly three times as much
for cattle and hogs and nearly twice
as much for butter and cream as he
did in the early nineties.
1t is too much to hope, however, that
the high cost of living will be reduced
by imports Of Danish bacon and butter.
The European demand for American
agricultural products is still 80
strong to admit Of such result. Two
years ago the exports OF provisions,
including meat and dairy products,a-
mounted in value to about S150,000,00O,
and the balance of trade in our favor,
after the similar imports had been de-
Quoted, amounted to about S142,OOO,00O.
So long as large proportion of the
people of Europe depend upon us for
meat, and while the agricultural areas
devoted to the raising of cattle and
hoes are haing reduced, the housewife
