LET EN- COME!

Talking about circuses, though, Bro.
Wallace, OF The Newberry Observer,

two hours waiting to see the greatest
and grandest pageant" in the world

avan Of cloth and gold" drawn
by magnificent horses. long legg-
ed camels and even zebras and
then pointed at the long line OF ele-
plants and watched the lady with the
snake around her neck and millions"
OF other things and then, at the last,
listened to the beautiful music stream
ing from the steam plano. If Bro
Wallace had been there then, with a
bag Of peanuts in his hand, and had
caught the very first street car for
the circus grounds and had gone into
the mammoth tent ton a pass and
watched the acrobats, animals, horses
and clowns, he certainly would have
said II have seen enough. Let's go
back to Newberry and rest awhile"
The Observer does not take circus
seriously and then it does. Here is
what it said last week

that way about II too.
AS to the money feature. nearly all
OF our money goes North anyhow: so
there's no use to kick about a small
thing like a circus, especially when
1t - an educational institution" and
the performers wear clothes, more
or less, and the clowns are funny.
Long live 'circuses; but they ought
to have to stay in a town two days
and give everybody a chance 10 see
them and get educated. We beg leave
to offer that suggestion as a substitute
for the million dollar license.

Answer

Laurens, S. c., Oct. 28, 1912.
Dear Madam
Your inquiry regarding the cor
rect ngraving for wedding silver
has just been received. There is no
set rule, and authorities differ as to
which is correct.
presents are gifts to the bride and
ion of the majority that the groom's
initials should mark the gift-for
why should the silver that she will
use in common with her husband all
her life bear the initial Of name
that is no longer hers?-in fact,
probably many of her guests would
not be familiar with her former
name.
This latter custom prevails in the
fashion centres of Europe and
America, and has generally been re-
cognized by us as the correct form,
except, of course, where the gift
partakes of strictly personal ma
ture, such as Toilet Articles, Jewel
Cases, Photo Frames, ETC., when
the brides initial is permissible.
Thanking you for this opportunity
OF serving you, we remain
Yours very truly,

Though Tohtai. the Indian woman
who died on the reservation Friday
night, had followed the white mans
way and had left will in which she
bequeathed her land to certain of her
peope, two out of the three heirs so
named will not secure their legacies
because of a government ruling which

whom was bequeathed an eighty-acre
