Anti-Cigarette Law

= The indications are that the legisla-
ture will pass an ant-cigarette law for
South Carolina. Several States Of the
Union have such laws and in the main
they are enforced. In Tennessee
the re is'a law prohibiting the sale of
cigarettes and it is regarded as good
law, haying reduced cigarette smok-
ing among the boys. The man who :is
addicted to the habit orders his cigar
cites as he does his liquor. In some
of the larger towns Of Tennessee cigar
cites are sold in violation of the law,
but in the rural districts and smaller
towns, "readymade" cigarette IS
hard to fnd.-Spartanburg Herald. i

"This Is Your Show"

The late Sir George White defender
of Ladysmith, was strong enough
man to take responsibility for failure:
he was a strong enough man, too, to
give credit to his subordinates for
good work done. The first time saw
him was at Elandslaagte. The battle
was we'll in progress. General French
was celebrating one of the most brill
liant affairs of the South African war
Late in the afternoon Sir George
White and his staff rode on the bat
tlefeid, and had not been there five
minutes before shell fred from one
of the MISUNDERSTANDING which the
Beers captured from Jameson at the
time of the raid, but which were des-
tined by nightfall to be In our hands.

New York Police Mascot.

In addition to its official 'yaller dog
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 bafled 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.

Finding the Drowned.

Occasionally one reads that, when
human bodies are thought to be in riv-
ers and cannot be found, "a loaf Of
bread has been fioated down the
stream" But very few people have
the least idea what connection there
is between bread and the finding of
bodies. When the river has been
dragged without result, loaf Of bread
is cut in two, a place followed out in
the middle, and a quantity Of quick
silver inserted. The two halves Of
the loaf are then fastened together
again, and the bread is thrown into
the water in the place where the body
is supposed to be. Without fail the
loaf floats along until it reaches the
vicinity of the body. and then revolves
quickly, lowering over the spot.
