JUST A MERE SUGGESTION
Huby's Plant, However, Threatened
to Develop Into First-Class
Family Spat.

"Gertrude."
Eyes, John"
We've been married long enough
now to talk plainly to each other
whats the matter now?"
'If I do something you don't like
want you to tell me of It. and if you
do things | don't like | think | ought
to tell you of them, too
Il suppose | don't suit you at ALL"
yes you do, but | think We ought
to talk over our likes and dislikes. In
that way we can get along SO much
better"
John, I want you to understand
right now that was brought up every
bit as we'll as you, and know how to
behave. And as to my cooking, | can
do as we'll as your mother ever did.
Il had hoped that you wouldn't lose
your temper But If you're going to
act this way we may as we'll drop the
matter right here
What is the matter, anyhow ?"
Il only wanted to suggest that when
you darn my socks 1t would be better
for me If you would tie the knots on
the outside, instead of the inside"

Aid TO the UnloveIY,

81 try to be an efficient city direc-
tory" said the hotel clerk, but balk
at recommending a beauty doctor to
women guests.
THAT is one of the first things they
want to know. Churches, theaters,
even dressmakers can wait few days.
but the beauty doctor is an immediate
necessity. Unfortunately, they do not
get much satisfaction out of me. Any
number of beauty specialists leave
cards for distribution, but so many of
them have been mixed up In lawsuits
that I feel squeamish about delivering
their cards. To satisfy my own con-
science and the women at the same
time | hand out bunch of advertise
ments with the remark that l guess
they are about all alike.
Then they can pay their money
and take their choice. and if they lose
their hair and complexion, they can't
come back on me for damages"

New York Police Mascot.

In addition to its official 'yaller dos"
mascot, Bum, the old Mulberry street
police station has acquired another
dog known as Peg Post. He is also
of an ochre tint, and his mysterious
behavior has baff1ed the wisest sleuths
in the station. When the men begin
their tours on the stationary or peg"
posts at ten o'clock at night, the dog
comes trotting from somewhere and
takes up his station with whichever
policeman on duty in the precinct suits
his fancy for that particular night.
Frequently he changes from one post
TO another, and remains on watch
until the stationary posts give way
to regular patrol at six in the morn
ing. Then he trots away. and is not
seen until the next night. Offers Of
tidbits from the mems lunches have
been repeatedly refused by Peg Post
and his agility has thus far prevented
any one from learning the number of
the dog license he wears on his collar.

Largest Flying Fish.

The largest flying fish on record
was served up for breakfast on the
British warship Ardeola a short time
ago. The Ardeola was homeward
bound and was off the Canary Islands
when large school of flying fish was
observed They were apparently in
full flight from some deep sea enemy
and travelling rapidly. As the ship
met and passed them several flew on
board and were seized by the crew as
welcome additions to the mess. One
of the fish measured 10 inches; the
largest flying fish ever seen before the
Ardeola's catch have never exceeded
10 inches The big one was fried for
the captains breakfast Flying fish
are very palatable and taste like
trout.

0rIGlN OF FAMOUS PHRASE
Belief that Common Political Term
Sprang From Horse Race Held
in Tennessee.

The political term dark horse" is
thought to have had its origin in the
following circumstances:
In the last century there lived in
Tennessee a Character" named Flynn,
an elderly person who dealt in horses
Flynn generally contrived to own
speedy nag or two for racing purposes
If he could arrange for "a good thing"
during his peregrinations throughout
the state
The best of Flynn's flyers was
coal black stallion named Dusky Pete,
almost thoroughbred and able to go
in the best of company.
One day Flynn visited a town where
a race meeting was in progress. He
entered Pete. The people, knowing
nothing of the horses antecedents and
not being over impressed by his ap-
pearance, backed the local favorite
heavily against the stranger.
Just as the beasts were being sad
died for the race, certain Judge Nc
Minamee, who was the oracle of
that part of the state. arrived on the
course and was made one of the race
judges.
As he took his place on the stand he
was told of the folly of the owner of
the strange entry. Running his eye
over the track the judge instantly rec
ognized Pete. Gentlemen" said Nc
Minamee, there's a dark horse in this
race, as you'll soon find out"
He was right. Pete, "the dark horse"
lay back until the three-quarter pole
was reached, when he went to the
front with a rush and won the race.

A Tribute.

Charles C. Thames of Silver, depart
ed this life, October 18th, 1912, in the
eighty-third year of his age.
The first break in this family occur
red about FIVE years ago, when the
mother was laid to rest in the cemetery
at Manning; and now the father has
been called at ripe old age, leaving
the ten children-all having reached
the years of manhood and womanhood,
and all feeling honored places in life.
It is just q little remarkable that the
chain of children has never been
broken. The children are: J. W., OF
Mayesville; A. w, and Charles, OF
Sumter; Lee and Josie, of Silver; Mrs.
F. NJ. Cannon, of Chesterfeld; Mrs.
L4sesne, Mrs. Hardy Cain and Misses
Annie and Octavia all of Silver.
Mr.. Thames lived all his life at Silver.
The hills and valleys OF the county he
loved so well were dear to his heart,
and it was interesting 10 hear him tell
of conditions during his young manhood
and those of to-day. In that great strug-
gle-the war between the States-he
served with distinguished ability and
fidelity. After leaving the field Of bat
tie he returned 10 his home ana aided
in the work OF recovering from the de-
vastating effects Ct the war. Truly IL
may be said OF him "he was soldier in
war and a citizen OF the highest type in
peace" He was good, gentle. kind and
patient, and no unkind word was heard
to pass his lips, but he was ever ready
with word OF good cheer for every
one. For many years he served as jury
commissioner for Clarendon county. aud
was postmaster at Silver for = long
time, and he did well his duty in every
sphere of life. In early manhood ne
! dedicated himself to God and was IN
every sense of the word an honorable
man and Christian gentleman.
The end was peace. He attended to
his usual duties in the post office the
evening before, and said 'good-night"
at peace with God and ali manhind, but
'ere the sun had risen his eyes beheld
the glory OF that brighter world-''God
had given his servant rest"
