Both parents and teachers I'm school
should unite i'm an earnest endeavOr to
cultivate on the part of the boys and
girls a habit of -carefulness and thor
Oughness in tasks that are undertaken.
It will aid in the incubation of this
habit if there is emphasized the thought
that any work undertaken is worth
doing as well rs one knows how to do
1t. Carelessness and slipshOdness-if
there is such a word-in those who ARE
hired to do work is the bane alike of
the housewife. the farmer and the mer-
chant. On the other hand, there is
nothing that gives more satisfaction
than having helpers who do their tasks
neatly and carefully Ii is this differ
'ence in the way Of doing things that
largely accounts for the fact that some
people succeed in life and others make
good deal of fzzle of it

The interstate commerce commission
has recently decided that chickens are
not live stock" The decision was
rendered in a case appealed to the COM
mission by man named Ream, who
sought to secure free fare for himself
as caretaker of twelve hens that were
being shipped from Richmond, va. to
Los Angeles, Cal. He worked his blud'
as far as FL Paso, Tex, at which point
the railroad refused to let him ride
without paying full fare. lie demand
ed that the commission compel the rail
roads to refund the amount paid in
fare, but they refused 10 support him
in his contention, and the above verdict
was their decision in the matter

cooperative demonstration work which
has been carried on in a number Of
southern states under the direction Of
Professor Knapp of the bureau Of plant

cial emphasis has been placed upon the
Importance Of crop rotation. and the
growing of more corn, peas. velvet

ROBT. d. KITCHENS
ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
DesPsndency Caused From Bad
: Health Is Said To Be The Cause
Of Rash Aet-Election to Vote
Bonds Was Defeated.

Jonesville, June 10.-Mr. Robert
ID. Kitchens, who lives on Mr.. d. b.
Frees place three miles west of
Jonesviile attempted suicide Sun
day night by shooting himself with
a-32 Smith & Wesson pistol, the ball
entered his breast and passed
through his body and into the wall
of the house. DR.. Hames is attend
ing him and says his wound is not
fatal, unless pneumonia develops or
blood poison. The doctor thinks the
ball missed the heart. Mr.. Kitch-
ems shot himself accidently with a
shot gun several years ago, by which
he lost his left arm and his health
Of late has been bad and he got very
despondent, having a wife and four
children and his mind became af-
fected which is no doubt the cause
of his rash act.
The election last week for a thirty
thousand dollar issue of bonds for
the town of Jonesville for the pur-
pose of installing water works and
light was badly defeated. The voters
didn't seem to be ready for such a
step at the present.
Rev. r. w. Spigner, of Kingstree,
S. c., spent day and night last
week with friends in Jonesville, he
was on his way to Wofford COM
mencement.
Chief of Police McKissick pulled
three Sunday sinners last Sunday
They were from Buffalo, and came
to Jonesville to attend a wedding.
Their names are Dock Deason, Jim
Frost and Hogan. Deason
was carrying "A Smith and Wesson
pistol in a scabbard overNhis shoulder
and he tried to pull his gun on Nc
Kissick, but Mack got a good hold
on it and wrenched it from the man.
Mayor Scott fined Deason twenty five
dollars and excused the other two
men. Of course the pistol is for
feited.
1t seems to this writer that the
gun was rather novel thing to be
worn to a wedding, but / guess they
could be pulled from many a hip
pocket in the churches, court houses
and social gatherings.
The rains have been heavy in this
country and have done much damage
to the land and crops and now the
cold winter-like weather that follows
is great back set to the farmers.
Miss Lizzie Coleman and Mr.. Joe
Frost were married last Sunday at
the home of the brides parents, Mr..
and Mrs. w. G. Coleman. Rev. w.

worm Disease; Its prevalence and
prevention in South Carolina. Green
vile county is the only county in
South Carolina that has not appro-
priated money to assist in eradicat-
ing the hookworm.
DR.. L. M. Mccormick, city meat,
milk and food inspector, of Asheville,
spoke on "Flies; Their Habits and
determination. His lecture was il
lustrated with steropticon slides
which gave the audience vivid pic
lures of the menace of the common
house and stable fly.
DIR. Wilson was the last speaker
of the congress. He was to have
spoken on Quarantine" but on ac-
count of delay in getting his Ian
tern slides from Washington he read
a paper giving death statistics and
mortality lists in the United States.
This paper was very instructive and
although last was by no means least
of the various papers read at the
congress.
There was also held in Greenville
during the week "Pure Food and
Health Exposition"
Among the pure foods on exhibi-
tion were the products of the Rum
ford Chemical company, H. J. Heinz
Co. National Biscuit Co, Borden's
Condensed Milk Co., C. F. Saver, iva

Flanklin Sugar Refining andTetley's

The Pasteur treatment for rabies
was demonstrated. A rabbit or gui-
nea pig was inoculated with hydro
phobia serum and allowed to die,
and after death from this cause the
vaccine was taken from the marrow
of the animals backbone.
DR.. Mccormick, of Asheville, N.
c., had an exhibit showing the "Life
Cycle of the Fly"
At this, the first meeting of the

QUESTION CLEARED UP
Union Readers Can No Longer Doubt
the Evidence.

Union Readers Can No Longer Doubt
the Evidence.
Again and again we have read of
strangers in distant towns who have
been cured by this or that medicine.
But Unions pertinent question has
aways been "Has anyone here in Un-
ion been cured?" The word of a
stranger living hundred miles away
may be true, but it cannot have the
same weight with us as the word of
our own citizens, whom we know
and respect, and whose evidence we
can SO easily prove.
John Petty, 76 w. Main ST., Union,
S. C. says: Doan's Kidney Pills have
certainly been of benefit to me and I
can recommend them. I was subject
to attacks of backache and there
were pains in my loins when stoop-
ed or lifted. Doan's Kidney Pills,
that I got from the Palmetto Drug
Co., brought me prompt and lasting
relief"
