BUILDING SLOW in 1914
About s25O,OO0 Spent Not Counting
the New Library.

the New Library.
Building done in Columbia in 1914
did not equal the amount done in
1913. The real estate business, ac-
cording to local dealers, was slow
er than in 1913.
In the last year seventy-five resi-
dences, two apartment houses and
one church constituted the building
activities of Columbia, excluding the
library building which is now under
way. The houses built ranged in
value from $500 to $4,000, the av-
erage being about $4,000. The ag-
gregate amount spent was about
$3.50, 900, which figure includes the
amounts spent in repairing and re-
modelling. Probably more repairing
and remodeling was done last year
than during any previous year.
Two residences were built at a
cost of $4,000 each and one apart
ment house at the same figure. The
new Catholic church, the lumber
for which was furnished by local
firm, cost about $4,000. The lum-
Der used in the new library building
is being furnished by Columbia
yard. The appropriation for the IL
brary building was s25O,OOO and the
contract for the part being built calls
for $15S,O00, which means that anoth-
er appropriation will be necessary to
complete the building.
The country business around Co
lumbia was better than during the
preceding year, in fact better than in
any recent time. The fall trade was
especially good A great quantity of
cement was sold to farmers. The ce-
ment trade in Columbia was about
the same as the previous year.
The lumbermen say that it is too
early to make any statement as to
the probable amount of building that
will be done this spring, as most of
the contracts are let the latter part
of this month and in February. They
do not look forward to any big year,
however.

The Literary Trawler
is Yours the Only Lawi

Is Tours the Only LaWt
"a Reply to Rudyard Kipling's Poe
Entitled: For All We Have al
Are")
BY Frederick Fl. Martens.
Is yours the only right?
Is yours the only law?
Must all men bow before
The menace of your might?
And crossing England's ways
Submit them to her hate.
Who blasts them with a phrase:
The Hun is at the gate"
The old commandments stand
For Teuton as for ye,
To nerve his cause and hand
To keep him strong and free.
Again the sword ye draw
That ye have drawn Of old,
That profits come OF war,
That We may have and hold
The Seven Seas alone,
The traders golden fruit
The while the Teutons groan
Beneath the COssack knout.
Does not the Teuton leave
His hostages to fate?
Does not the Teuton grieve:
"The Hun is at the gate!"
May not on the Most High
In prayer the Teuton call?
Or is He England's God
And not the God of all?
The old commandments stand
For Teuton as for ye,
To nerve his cause and hand,
To keep him strong and free.
Is not the Teuton's goal
The same as that ye claim?
The tears that wiring his soul
Are they in him shame?
The Teuton fights for all,
For freedom, culture, right;
Then what If England fail,
The world shall still have light!

Judge Moore continues to handle
the business of the court with speed
and satisfaction to all. By Wednes-
day night the dockets will have been
cleared. And yet we have not
heard him hurry any of the lawyers
or criticise any of the witnesses OF
jurors who happened to be a little
late. We take it that the judge
has had enough experience in the
court house to give the lawyers and
other persons having business to
perform, credit for the same de-
sire to transact their business as he
has. When a new judge comes
around and tries to make everybody
believe that he is the whole show,
he usually ends by finding that he
is but a small part of it. He soon
learns that he cannot force the busi-
ness forward by abusing the lawyers
and witnesses. The lawyers will
not try their cases before a man
who is not courteous to them, and
the judge who seeks a reputation by
being discourteous may please a
few newspapers who like to see the
courts in general criticised, but the
reputation he makes is, as a rule,
one which he would like very soon
to forget and be forgotten.

If Sheriff Burts has been living
in the country so long that he is
afraid to dip too deep into town
ways at first, we suggest that he
get residence on upper Main street.
If he wants to get in the swim from
the jump, he should live on Green
Vile street. As he is a large man,
he would perhaps want two side
walks on that street, however.

Assuming the office of sheriff at
this time, under an administration
of law and order, it will be the
duty of the new sheriff to see that
every man in the city and county
treats his neignbors right, and if
anyone of them refuses, it is his
duty to take such action as is ne
cessary to enforce these rights. We
therefore venture to advise the
sheriff not to throw anything in the
collection at the Baptist church un-
til uncle Jim gives his neighbors a
new sidewalk.

FEW ARE BUYING DIAMONDS
Prosperity to the Dealers in Precious Stones.

The diamond trade in Europe is well-nigh wiped out by the war. The great diamond monopoly in South Af- rica, it is said, will pass it's dividends and maybe suspend business entirely. The custom of ''valorizing" diamonds holding back part of the output to keep up prices--has left the big min ing company with heavy stock on hand.
 This winter, at least, many people in Europe who wear diamonds, far from wanting moro, are going to find it convenient, not to say assee necessary, to sell those they have. This will lower prices and more than satisfy the fee ble demand. It would not be surpris- ing if goodly stock of European jew erly were to find its way to this coun- try at bargain prices.
 Europe is in no mood to buy gew- gaws. Cold cash looks as good to ds Of Of l1er erty owners food to millions who own nothing. A dia- mond mine is no place to look for a job yet awhile.

She exercised great care in the se- lection of a helper. She also had Go get aid in putting up the candies. She had to keep books, too, and became more and more of a regulation busi. ness woman.
 Within a year of her arrival in Mont clair, Mrs. Tabor was known through out the whole Montclair district, and Mrs. Tabor's homemade candy had be- come an institution. Then, by de- grees, she and her candy became known to Glen Ridge, Bloomfield, Verona, Caldwell and the Oranges. That portion of New Jersey is one of beautiful homes, owned by people of wealth or considerable means. To deliver to all the people in this wide section who gave orders to her be- came more and more difficult for the little woman who had made business for herself. There is lot of entertain ing in the Oranges and the Montclairs. For banquet or party, wedding or luncheon, dinner or reception to be without Mrs. Tabor's homemade candy came to be rarity. She estab- lished a regular delivery service, and this led to some families giving or ders for certain quantity of candy each week.
 It is three years since Mrs. Tabor arrived in Montclair with her chil- dren and her stricken husband, and with very few dollars to provide for her needs. MT. Tabor is no better
 The physicians have done their best for him, but it is doubtful if he ever will be well. His wife, who never sus. pected she had an atom of business l sense, has developed into a most capable business woman.

TAXES OFF DANDRUFF
 HAIR STOPS FALLING
Girls! Try This! Makes Hair Thick Glossy, Fluffy, BeautifuI-No
 More Itching Scalp.

Within ten minutes after an appli- cation of Danderine you cannot find single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first-yes- really new hair growing all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately dou bles the beauty of your hair. No diff ference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at time. The effect is amaz- ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparable luster, softness and luxuriance
 Get 25 cent bottle of Knowltons Danderine from any store, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any-that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all-you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of it if you will just try lit- tie Danderine. Adv.

tess where she bought it and the hos tess told how Mrs. Tabor had made it to order. One or two of them called on the minister's wife and asked her to make candy for them She made it and after awhile she was getting one or two orders week for candy.
 There wasn't much profit for the lit tie woman. When everything went well she had few dollars above ex- penses as the result of many hours of work, but when she made the slightest mistake in the cooking most of the profit was lost She liked to make candy. It was the one thing she liked to do better than anything else Why, she asked herself, couldn't she turn the talent she had in this direction to making living for herself and fam fly? Nothing was more suited to her needs. She could remain at home, near her stricken husband, and watch over her little household If it were not for the fact that occasionally a batch of candy spoiled in the making, she could make a profit, however
  small it might be, on every order. If l she only could guard against these mistakes she would be safe, but how could she? A friend with whom she consulted pointed a way out.
 You have gift for candy making, | said this friend, but there are various l things you have to learn. There must be way to prevent the failures you sometimes encounter. Read up or candy making. Find out what the sci | entists who have made a study of the | subject have to say. You may dis | cover something of profit

WHEN KIDNEYS ACT BAD

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flush ing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou- ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi- ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding. get about four ounces of lad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be. fore breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This ia nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for genera tions to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neu-- tralize the acids in urine so it no, longer causes irritation, thus ending. bladder disorders.
