Made Him Frisky.

What is good for man is good
for beast and it's poor rule that
don't work both ways. Not far
from Marshfield lives a conteuted
couple on farm. They think a
great deal of each other aud last
March when the husband began
to refuse his ratlons and kind of
got sick like, it worried his wife.
Nothing seemed to suit his taste
and he went about doing his
chores as if he was trying to save
funeral expenses. Out in the barn
his wife came across q package Of
condition powders like they feed
horses after reading its goodAuai-
titles printed on the wrapper she
vowed to try some on her husband
The next morning for breakfast
she mixed a tablespoonful with
oat meal. He ate it with relish.
The next day she repeated the
dose and before the end of the
week he jumped five rail fence
and turned hand spring. Before
he had eaten one-ponnd package
he threw the hired man three
times during the noon hour
and cut up several capers like a
16-year.old would do. Then the
good wife, tickled all over at her
wonderful discovery got another
package, but before a half of it
was fed up her husband got so
frisky she could not keep him
on the farm or at home nights.
He just wants to prance around
and make goo goo eyes at all the
women and now his wife is in
tears and talks about getting a
divorce.

and citizens of the District had |
prominent part, were held at
several of the executive depart
ments and bureaus and the
schools and churches of the city.
And men, women and children
pledged their allegiance to their
county and their devotion to the
flag. The ceremonies were made
more impressive than in past
years, due to the crisis which this
country is facing in connection
with its foreign relations. Many
on the speakers dwelt upon the
fact that at such q time every
true American, native born of
Germany has sent out a note to
this country in reference to the
sinking of the American sailing
ship W. z. Eyre by the German
vessel Prinz Eitel Friedrich,
making the far. reaching claim
of a right to destroy any Ameri-
can vessel carrying contraband.
While agreeing to pay damages
for the act.
President Wilson's second
note to Germany on the sinking
of the Lusitania revolves around
the central idea that existing
international laws give United
States citizens the right to be-
lieye their lives will not be
sacrificed at sea. The most
sensational thing connected with
1t was Bryan's resignation as
Secretary of State. Hardly any,
thing was talked about in Wash
ington for three or four days but
the resignation. The statements
issued by him since have furn-
ished- additional topics. Specula-
tion has been rife as his future
course of action, and it's effect
upon the Democratic party.
Many were of opinion that Mr..
Bryan would again seek the pres
idential nomination in 1915
in opposition to Mr..
Wilson, while others be-
lieved that he might become
Senator from Nebraska, his home
State. Some predictions were
made that his action would result
in split in the Democratic party
and It's ultimate defeat in 1916;
yet taking his announcements
at their face value his resigna-
tion aud his plans have for their
ultimate end the support of the
President and the good of the
Democratic party.
Increasing optimism is being
shown by American government
officials and attaches of the Ger
man embassy that Germany and
the United States will reach an
amlcable settlement of their
differences. The editorials of
the German press were read with
particular interest by the
officials, who drew much en-
couragement from the references
| to the friendly tone of the recent
American note.
Although the United States
government for the last two weeks
has been absorbed in the Ger
man situation, the interim of a
fortnight or more that will
elapse before reply comes from
Berlin undoubtedly will draw at
tention again to political develop
ments in Mexico. Gen. Car
rama has issued a proclamation
claiming that having control of
a large territory and having In
stituted civil administration
therein, he ia entitled to recogni-
ton. Gen. Villa has sent note
to this government favoring
President Wilson's suggestion of
a union of the Mexican factions
for peace; and has made over
lures to Carranza. But the
opinion is general in Washing
ton that the administration can
not long tolerate the present

Hard Times a Myth?

A few days ago a local attorney
told us that he had $4,000 to LEND
for a client but that he could not find
any borrowers.
A big insurance company has set
aside $4,000, 900 to be loaned in this
State at 70. Dillon county's appor-
tionment is 100000. So far the in
surance company has not been able
to make a loan in this county.
Last week the State of South Car
olina borrowed 100000 from a ma
tional bank in a nearby town at
2.67%. Last year at this time money
cost the State 5%.
The last statement of the State
Bank Examiner showed that loans in
South Carolina had fallen off 80 per
cent as compared with correspond
ing period for the previous year.
Cheap money does not indicate
that the State is making any SUBJ
stantial progress along industrial
lines. 1t is rather the reverse. How
ever,it shows that our fears last fall
were not we'll founded. Our people
are learning how to get along with
less money, and bankruptcy is fur
ther away today than it has been in
many years. Dillon Herald.
