long ago they moved next door to an
orphans home. Shortly after moving

pies disappeared with great rapidity.
Harry" she said one morning,
what is going on with our apples?"
Mother he replied, u have to eat
a great many apples"
Il am willing that you should have
all the apples you want. But why do
you eat so many lately?"
Why. | have to eat great many

Mistaken Reckoning.

A country boy came to Pittsburg
for his vacation. and while he was
seeing the city he went around in
his country toys. AS most country
boys. he wore his pants usually short
far above his ankles.
AS he was going along Fifth avenue
some smart street loafer exclaimed:
"Oh, you country boy, your pants are
not too short, are they?"

face flushed, answered.:

key calls ones mind back to
an earlier world when all the
countries now engaged in fore
ible disputations We're includ-
ed in the Byzantine empire. which is
also popularity known as the Greek en-
pire, and was founded In 295 A. d.,
when Theodosius the Great at his
death divided the Roman empire be-
tween his two sons. one of whom, Ar
cadius, was the first emperor of the
Byzantine empire. This empire last
ed for more than 1 900 years. Its cap
ltal was Byzantium, now CONSTANT
nople. Its greatest names are Justin
Ian. who reigned from 527 to 565, and
Leo the Isaurian, who seized the
throne in ZIG. During the succeeding
ages there were constant struggles
with the Saracens, and the Bulgarians.
1t was in the eleventh century that
the Byzantine empire was threaten
ed and its power broken by the Seljuk
Turks. In 1904 the French and the
Venetians captured Constantinople,
and there was period OF western rule
for nearly 80 years. The Turks first
made n permanent settlement Ia Eu-
rope by the taking of Gallipcli in 1854.
In 1861 the Sultan Amurath took
Adrianople. and made 1t the seat of
government, ultimately CONSTANT
nople was captured by Mohammed II.

empire came to an end From that

THE CANVAS TUG.

To the old students, the canvas
tub and roping contest between the
freshman and sophomore classes
seem mild in comparison with the
backspot fights and the class fights
that used to take place on the campus
around the light pole. Many of the
old students criticise the present. day
method and vail about the loss of
class spirit, but down in their hearts,
it is hoped they see the good of the
change.
These new contests are as enter
tanning as the old ones for the spec
tators. They answer the purpose of
deciding class supremacy. 1t is quite
certain that they are better for the
persons that participate in them.
The new contests show that hazing
and other forms of violent inter-class
contests are on the decline.

STUDENT HEALTH.

Health is one of the important fac.
tors that will determine whether a
student will succeed.
Scientists tell us that mans men,
taffty and morals are much more de-
pendent upon his health than is COM
monty supposed. 1t is usually the
weak man physically that becomes
the weak man mentally and morally
The moral is, of course, to be care
full of the physical health. Regular
habits, careful diet, plenty of outdoor
exercise, and lots of sleep will norm-
ally keep one in good health.
Students, especially those who are
used to farm or other outdoor, active
life, are liable to suffer from lack of
exercise. They discontinue the vigor.
GUS life in the open air but keep up
their heavy eating. The result is
sluggish brain and decreased mental
activity. The remedy is obvious.
Plenty of sleep is very important.
The more active the brain the more
sleep required. Webster went to bed
at 9 o'clock and arose at ). General
Grant, during his campaigns, declared
that he could do nothing without nine
hours sleep. Bryan, on his speaking
tours, slept in chair between stops
Outdoor exercise and nine hours
sleep will help wonderfully to keep
the student in good health. Free from
physical ills. he will be able to con-
centrate his mind on his lessons. The
best students are not those who pore
over their work till midnight but
those who are able to concentrate
their minds upon their work.

You should take advantage of this

more difference than You noticed at

BOOKS BOUND IN RAT SKIN

1t appears that new use has been
found for the skin of the common
brown rat. In England, it is said, the
bookbinders have taken to using these
skins for covers of fine editions
hitherto bound in high grade leath-
ers. 1t is reported that a trade
amounting to one-quarter million dol
lars a year has developed in Great
Britain and that many skins are i'm

AFTER BREATHING SPELL
S0LONS BACK On JOB:
BIENNIAL SESSIONS BILL FORE.
DOOMED TO FAlLURE--OTHEK
MEASURES PROJECTED.

MEASURES PROJECIED.
Columbia, January 80: THE past
, week has not been as busy for the
Legislators as was week before last.
but the coming week promises to he
full of interesting enactments by
both Houses.
A resolution that will likely pre-
cipitate considerable debate IS that
introduced concurrcnt!y in both
Houses of the Legislature to mak@
the office of Commissioner Of Agri-
culture, Commerce and Industries
elective by the Legislature instead
of appointive by the Governor as at
present. The office is now held by
Mr. E J Watson.
Yhere are several bills on the
calendars of both Houses for this
week which will bring forth debate
lengthy and heated. One of these
is to prohibit book-making. betting,
pool-selling and wager making.
The bill has been introduced in both
Houses and there are many opposed
and many favorable to its enact
ment.
Still another bill that is to come
up in the House at an early date is
that to allow commission form of
government for cities of population
between nine and twenty thousand
an between fifty and one hundred
thousand. The only city in the lat
ter class in the State is Charleston
and interest in the measure in the
seaside city is at fever heat. These
bills are being watched especially in
the light of the fact that the Legis-
lators were the guests of the city of
Charleston last Friday, when several
speakers at the various social func-
tions of that day referred to matters
of local politics in Charleston and
asked that the makers allow
Charleston to have the things she
desired.
A bill which has been introduced
in the Senate, but which it is
thought stands little chance of be-
ing passed into law, is that to pro-
vide biennial sessions Of the Legis-
lature. The bill was introduced by
Senator Wharton, of Laurens, and
one strong argument in its favor is
that it would relieve the State of
great expense. The bill will bring
on a fight before it is finally dis
posed of.
A bill to prevent the manufacture
and sale of cigarettes in this State
is now pending in the upper branch
of the General Assembly and it is
expected that it will be disposed OF
in some way this term. The bill
was introduced by Senator Rains
xSard. An amendment has been Of
red which substitutes for the bill
Ione to make it misdemeanor for
person to smoke cigarettes, this be-
ing offered on the ground that the
original bill will prevent the sale of
manufactured cigarettes but will
not prevent cigarette smoking.
There is much opposition to the bill,
though those favoring it are equally
strong.
A bill is on the calendars of both
Houses to create State warehouse
system, the bill allowing an appro-
priation of $3.50, 900 for its establish
