THE CASE.

(S%partanburg Journal)
In the Tillman case, decided yes
terday by the supreme court, our
sympathies have always been with
Mrs. Dugas. Any law that would take
children away from their mother. II
the mother is a proper person, to care
for the children, is a bad law. But
the supreme court acted wisely in al
lowing the father to occasionally see
the children and aid in rearing them.
The court, it seems, put this state
ment I'D to ,Tillman-prove yoursel1
worthy Of seeing your children and
you shall do so. This is no more than
fair. Mr.. Tillman should be allowed
to see his little girls, if he Is Leading
a life now, different from that OF
years ago.
If young Tillman would delight his
friends and surprise his enemies by
proving a true Southerner, it Is pos
sible that he can effect a reconcllla-
ton with Mrs. Dhgas. If he lives an
upright life in the future and again
wins the admiration OF his former
wife and is forgiven, then the court
will have performed a favor to the
children that they car never repay.
It was an extremely delicate ques-
ton for the court to handle and the
divorce laws of other states, whlch
entered, added to the already COM
pleX nature.

We call ourselves civilized and
vaunt ourselves upon the fact that we
are living in the twentieth century,
in an age of enlightenment, and yet
we permit a coming generation to
live and labor under conditions well
calculated to make criminals of them.
Within each one of these boys there
may be dormant possibilities Of de-
velopment into splendid manhood;
but alone in the world, unaided, I'M
tutored, they have already taken a
first lesson in the ways that lead
downward and the end of their Ca
reer may be we'll imagined.
No civilization is complete which
will tolerate conditions of this kind.
Bad boys there will be and the wan
derlust will remain with the race yet
awhile, but the story told by these
boys of the life which they had led,
without opportunity, with small re-
ward for labor and severe punish
ment for failure to perform their
tasks, was well calulated to excite
pity and to make us wonder if, after
all, we are not falling far short of our
duty to our fellow

DO WE WANT IT?

If Abbeville has any, desire to Sc
cure the Baptist hospital it is time to
make a decided effort in that direc'
ton. According to a statement pub
lished elsewhere the committee will
meet in Columbia Dec. 81 to entertain
offers from cites and towns anxious
to capture this prize. Any offer that
Abbeville may make must be in def,
mite, concrete shape by that time,
which is almost upon US.
1t is stated that money alone will
not be the determining factor, but
Abbeville cannot afford to make q
niggardly offer.
Do we really want it? If so, let's
get it.
The time has now come for action
and quick and decided action is abso'
lutely necessary.
1t will be a splendid institution
we'll worth wishing for, but the wish
will never be fulfilled without work
Let Abbeville at least make an
offer worthy of her ability or KEEP
silent.

WYNKEN, BLYNKEN AND NOD.

Wynken, Blynken and Nod one night
Sailed off in a wooden shoe
Sailed on a river of crystal light,
Into a sea of dew.
Where are you going, and what do
you wiSh?"
The old mai asked the three.
I'VE have come, to fish for the herring
fish
That live in this beautiful sea;
Nets of silver and gold have wei"
Said Wynken,
Blynken,
And Nod.
The old moon laughed and sang a
song,
AS they rocked in the wooden shoe,
And the wind that sped them all night
long
Ruf1ed the waves of dew. ,
The little stars were the herring fish
That live in this beautiful sea;
"Now cast your nets wherever you
wish
Never afraid are we;"
So cried the stars to the fisher
men three:
Wynken,
Blynken,
And Nod.
All night long their nets they threw
To the stars in the twinkling foam
Then down from the skies came the
wooden shoe,
Bringing the fishermen home;
Twas all so pretty, a sail it seemed
AS If it could not be,
And some folks thought twas a dream
the'd dreamed
Of sailing. that beautiful sea
But I shall name you the fisher
men three:
Wynken,
Blynken,
And Nod.
Wynken and Blynken are two little
eyes,
And Nod is a little head,
And the wooden shoe that sailed the
skies,
Is a wee ones trundle-bed.
So shut your eyes while mother sings
OF wonderful sights that be,
And you shall see the beautiful things
AS you rock in the misty sea,
Where the old shoe rocked the
fishermen three:
Wynken,
Blynken,
And Nod.

SUSPENDS PUBLICATION
AFTER I,500 YEARS.

The president of the Chinese repub-
lie, Yuan Shi Kai, recently suppress
ed the newspaper King Bao, when
was undoubtedly. the oldest paper IN
the world. For 1900 years it has re-
ported the more important news not
only of China, but also OF foreign
countries. The first edition was print
ed ON ten sheets of yellow silk neatly
tied together, and was sent to all the
high officials of the Chinese empire.
Since 400 A. D. that paper has been
issued regularly till it was suppressed
by the government. Many think that
printing was discovered in Europe in
the 14th century, calling into use at
first letters cut out OF the bark OF a
tree, and taking Impressions from
them. AS late as the second half OF the
14th century every book in Europe
used for school or church, every pub
lie document, every letter, was writ
ten out by hand, and the illustrations
of the same were made by hand. Wood
letters were used for printing in Eu-
rope on silk cloth and vellum nearly
two hundred years before they were
used for printing on paper. In n
year ITS the text of the Chinese clas-
sizes was cut upon tablets which were
p~lacarded outside the university, II
Impressions were taken from them.
The newspaper, King Bao, founded in
the year 400 of the Christian era, is
the natural product of the art of print
ing in that day. It is presumed that
the president of the republic suppress
ed this paper because it was unfriend-
ly to democracy, or to the present ad-
ministSation of the goveEnment.-The
Christian Herald.

tact that they were from a mill vii
