To Tobacco Growers.

Dear Friends
AS you know, it is impossible for
us to make a personal visit to every
planter, so we have decided not to
do any drumming, but instead. stay
at our warehouse and do our drum
ming on our floor (which we believe
is the proper place. and by doing
this we shall save this extra expense
of hiring horses, etc. We are not
strangers to you. Our customers
are our drummers.
We have engaged MIR E j Hester
as assistant floor manager and he
gives his personal attention, together
with Roger Mcintosh, to every pile
of tobacco we sell.
If you want to hear an auctioneer
come and sell, there is no better. As
for courteous treatment, you all
know Jim Epps; he looks after that.
Last, but not least, we want to
take up the Kingstree slogan, that
we have the best tobacco maaket In
South Carolina and that Nelson's
warehouse is the place to sell. We
guarantee satisfaction and top mar.

FOSTER MURDER IN SALOONS
Assassination of Presidents Done by
Men Under Influence Of Liquor
or by saloonkeeper.

tBy REV. FERDINAND c. IGLNHART.)
1t is significant fact that the pres
idents of the United States who have
been assassinated have been shot
either by saloonkeeper or by a man
under the influence of liquor The rec
ord shows that the conspirators who
plotted against the life Of Lincoln
made their headquarters in saloon,
and that Booth, who removed him, for
titled himself with liquors for the
deed. Guiteau did the same when he
shot Garfield. Czolgosz, who killed
Mckinley, was the son Of saloon
keeper and was raised in thu danger
ous atmosphere of vice and crime.
A New York City saloon bred and
nursed the man who shot Mr.. Roose-
velt We need not go back TO any
mental taint in his ancestry for his
moral depravity. He was for many
years a teacher In New York's school
of crime, a saloonkeeper He Is the
natural result of the BUSINESS he fol-
lowed. He is the worst product of the
barbarism Of cosmopolitan life. He is
the kind of al agent the forces Of evil
would naturally select to shoot a man
like Mr. Roosevelt.

MAKE OLD LIKE NEW
SOME SUGGESTIONS ABOUT RE-
FINISHING OF OLD FURNITURE.
Much to Be Done Before the Actual
Work of Putting on the Enamel ls
Be9un-cIeaniines Most
Important

When old furniture Is to be enam'
eled to give it a new lease OF LIE
there is a good deal to be done be-
fore the actual putting on OF the
enamel, and upon this preliminary
preparation depends the success. Be
gin by giving each piece a thorough
good scrubbing with hot water, SOAP
and a strong bristle brush. This
scrubbing brings away any dirt ana
chips of paint, leaving surface Clean
but Clipped where the bits of paint
have come of. Then take a piece or
fine sandpaper and rub the furniture
all over with 1t, and 1t must be a
really fine sandpaper. as a coarse
piece would scratch and spoil the sur
face. Then II your furniture Is to be
enameled white the next step is a
coat of white paint. not enamel OUT
Just fiat white paint. Put this on nrst
with a small brush. filling IN all the
Clipped places, and letting them dry
before putting on the whole coat
This will take several hours to dry'
but it must be left till quite firm, hrst
the spots and then the coat of paint.
Before opening the enamel TIN snake
1t hard. so that the contents may De
thoroughly mixed. then give the
enamel a good stir with a piece OF
stick, pressing out any little Jumps
against the side Of the tin and getting
the whole mixture as smooth as
cream. For putting on tie enamel
use a soft, fiat brush, and work always
in the same direction. Put on a thin
first coat, trying to use as little as
possible, and be very careful not TO
leave puddles or thick dabs in the
corners. The first coat Of enamel may
take several days to dry thoroughly.
When 1t is quite dry sandpaper it over
very lightly indeed and put on anoth-
er coat. This second coat Is some
times not necessary; 1t depends on
the condition and former color of tie
piece Of furniture to a great extent,
and must be judged OF by the painter
herself.

SHADES FOR ELECTRIC LIGHT

Green cartilage paper should be cut

ends are joined it will make the snaoe

the pieces, d. pattern upon tne
edge, cutting It out with sharp knlfe

This is venetian paper work. and IL

Tho idea is to have the design per
fectiy smooth. Back this with me-

paste to join them together. Photo
graph paste is excellent for this pur-
pose, and roller Is helpful In smootn-

Do not bend the paper to form tne
cube shape until the paste Is dry. Hoii

Join the edges and trim the lower and
upper edge. If there Is no brass giooe

will be necessary to make a wire trl-

move the bulb, place the shade over IT,
replace the bulb in the socket and the
shade Is secure. For patterns there
are flower patterns and the conVen-

To Clean Vases.

Glass flower vases are apt to be-
come rluch stained in time, especially
If such flowers as mignonette and for

days without changing the water. To
remove the stains few methods are
better than that Of placing a handful
Of used tea leaves at the bottom OF
the vase with a little vinegar. and
with the hand placed across the top,
shaking it until the marks have dis
appeared. If not completely elimi-

in addition rag wound around a
stick and pushed into the crevices
will etfectually remove the most OBJ

FOR GREATEST GOOD OF ALL
Cry for Personal Liberty Must Be Met
by Awakening to Necessity of
Protective Laws.

"Can't I do as 1 please with my
own?" cry the sbouters for personal
liberty"
Let US see how far one can go. The
state sets up a standard Of protec-
ton for the public against the indi-
vidual. II you offer milk for sale in
our cities it must be from tested cows,
kept In clean, we'll lighted tieups. and
milked into clean utensils. Surely no
man can do as he pleases with his
cows. The state owns ,''e waters in
our lakes and streams, and says to
you, THAT trout brook emptying into
the lake Is closed" and though you
own the land on both sides, and un-
derneath, you cannot fish In that
stream. The state suspects you have
an animal afflicted with some con-
tagious disease, and officials come and
test. remove and destroy, and you are
powerless. The law forbids splitting
upon the sidewalk, erecting building
to be used for any business which is
a detriment to public health or COM
fort.
These are but hints at the restrain
Ing influence of law, made necessary
for the public good. and suggests the
truth of the statement that personal
liberty is alone to be found in living
under restraint If this seems para
doxical, 1t is nevertheless true. The
town or city holds that the rights OF
all are of greater importance than
those of any individual The state
strengthens itself when 1t assumes
control, in all ways, for the best good
of the greater number.
The cry for personal liberty raised
by the champions of the saloon must
be met by the awakening to the neces-
s'ty of law and its protective power.
,erty and life are not safe where
personal liberty lifts Its distorted
form. If we yield today to the cry
for personal liberty we fetter the COM
ing generation. The greatest tncen-
tive in the campaign for law and or.
der should be the upturned faces OF
the boys and girls. Our highest duty
is to open the door for them to realize
the most that is possible In future
years.-Portland (Me) Press.

Closet Room.

In planning a house let the women
of the family have something to say
about the arrangement, number and
size Of the closets. They know, or
should know, how much Housekeeping
is simplified when there is plenty OF
well-arranged closet room.
Closets should, if possible, be ven-
tilated and lighted by means OF win
dows. In addition every closet IN an
electrically lighted house should have
an electric light.
Have the linen closet fitted with
shelves provided with drop fronts;
have the fronts hinged by means or
chains at the sides held at just the
angle to transform the fronts into ad'
ditlonal shelf room where they are
dropped.
