the authorities having come to the
conclusion that the bayonet was OBJ
solete in modern warfare. The aver
age opinion Of the army, however.
soon made itself felt. and the first
order was countermanded and the rifle
was ordered with the bayonet. but
the bayonet was not of the ordinary
size but really sort of knife. In
subsequent orders the bayonet was
not questioned.
1t is interesting to speculate what
the Bulgarian fortunes might have
been, without the bayonet.

pains through my loins and limbs.
There was also constant ache in my

scarcely get about. The kidney secre-
tions were unnatural and annoyed me
greatly. I consulted several physi-
clans and tried a number OF kidney
remedies, but did not improve in the
least. 1 had about given up the hope
of ever being cured when my son-in-
law procured a supply of Doan's Kid
ney Pills for me at w. E. Pelham &
Sons drug store. He had read that
they were good for kidney trouble and
induced me to try them. 1 did so and
after 1 had taken the contents of two
boxes my backache had disappeared
and my kidneys had been restored to
their normal condition. l have recon-
mended Doan's Kidney Pills to many
of M friends and shall continue to

TIE Telephone.

In recent years the great public
service corporations have taken new
departures, in that they demand of
their. employees that in all their rela-
tons to the public uniform courtesy
and politeness shall prevail. The re-
suit has been that higher state of
efficiency has been attained in all de-
partments of public utilities, and what
is more, the "man with a Crouch" he
whose chief interest in life has been
to find fault with everything and
everybody with which and with whom
he has no personal concern, has found
his field rapidly narrowing.
It is more often than not the case,
however, that the public, or rather a
certain portion OF it, shows scant
courtesy where it desires and demands
ni2ch Take, fer instance, the tele-
phone service which is anathema of
all mankind, whether it deserves it or
not. AS is generally known, telephone
operators, and they are nearly always
of the gentler sex, are required to be
''polite at all times and under all cir
cumstances." 1t is a written law that
a telephone girl must take even foul
abuse from some drunken loafer with
out reply. One can regard that rule
as he sees fit, but it is poor rule
that doesn't work both ways
The public is impatient with the
telephone girl, for the most part be-
cause she is invisible, and again, be-
cause of conditions over which she
has no control, such as a neglectful
subscriber who fails to answer his
telephone when he is called. In cases
of this sort the telephone operator is
absolutely blameless, yet we have
hard men, and women too, berate
central" and later report her to
higher authorities because they
couldn't get any answer" In many
cases it happens that man is out of
his Office when his telephone number
is called, yet the unfortunate operator
is blamed for this too.
Telephone users should at all times
extend that courtesy and politeness
which they demand from those who
serve them. Life at its best is not a
rosy ore for the telephone girl, as a
visit to any city exchange will readily
show The trouble is that the dear
public" knows so little what it is talk
ing about when it kicks from force
of habit, that little education in the
sphere of public utilities would go a
long way and might accomplish some
good.
The foregoing remarks are applica-
BILE to all lines of public service-the
railroads, street car systems and tele-
graph lines. In all of these the pub
lie expects much, and is willing to give
but little.

Gov. Blease has received a letter
from the postmaster general, advising
that if the people along any stretch OF
IN miles of road in South Carolina will
raise $4,000, the government will ap-
pronriate $4,000, and have the road
nut in good condition, under direction
of experts.
Gov. Blease is given the authority to
name the road, the condition being
that it is a road on which rural mail
is delivered.
We would like to suggest the road
from Clinton to Columbia, which is a
little more than so miles. This road
is on. ridge all the way practically,
and is a mail delivery road. 1t has a
number of towns on it and goes
through prosperous farming section.
The supervisor of Richland county is
now at work On the road leading out
from Columbia, and has put in fine
condition about Is miles Of it, with the
exception of a stretch of about four
miles between Spring Hill and this 10
mile stretch the road is now in fairl?
sccd condition, and could be Kept 50
by sIv:l,g it just little atta ,i~l a.
using the split-log drag after each rain
This four miles is about as rough as
any road in South Carolina.
The road between Chaplin and Little
Mountain needs to be relocated so as
to avoid going directly up and down the
hills between these two points.
From Little Mountain to Prosperity,
Supervisor Feagle has already put the
road in fairly good condition. but in
order to keep it so it must have atten-
ton. From Prosperity to Newberry
there is now fairly good road, and
from Newberry to Kinards the road is
in good condition, with the exception
of holes, and these could be remedied
by the use of the split-log drag, and
with very little time or labor.
The letter from the postmaster gen.
eral to Gov. Blease is printed in this
issue of The Herald and News, and
we would be glad to have the people
along this route take the matter up
with the governor before some other
route IS selected.
