THE BROAD HIGHWAY.

The road to Little Mountain has
been made over and is now as smooth
and as broad as the road which we
are told leads to an unpleasant fu-
ture, and if the automobiles on Sun
day are any indication both roads
heavily travelled. Two weeks ago
sixteen cars went out after six
o'clock and last Sunday a constant
.stream of cars kept a cloud of brick
colored dust I've the road all the
afternoon.
The mountain has been cleaned up
and is a charming place for camping
parties and for people to go who care
for the water from the very excel
lent mineral spring.

THE TOMATO CROP.

, The Sumter Item says that the
Girls Tomato Canning Club is help
ing town people too, as tomatoes are
being offered on the streets of Sum-
ter for twenty-five cents a peck, the
fruit is always god and is from the
fields of the young girls in the coun-
-ty who have planted the tenth of an
acre. Abbeville county has a can
ming club and much beautiful fruit
is being offered on our streets for
sale. The young girls have been
most successful and if all the crop is
put up in cans, another generation
of people will have to be raised be-
fore the product of the 1915 crop
can be eaten up.

A BROKEN ARM.

Young Frank Gary jumped from
the running board of Miss Eliza
Gary's car while the car was in mo-
ton last Friday, fell and broke mis-
right arm below the wrist. DR.. Hill
set the arm and the young man was
able to walk. home. Franks fancy for
a canteloupe he saw on the roadside
was what caused him to jump. He
will take things easy and eat cantel-
oupe from a silver spoon at the
breakfast table, at least until his
arm gets well.

A DRY DROUTH.

There is an old saying in Scotland,
where it is said to rain every day,
that the customary greeting is ut is
raining to-day, but, please God, it is
not a wet rain" This saying will
not hold good in South Carolina for
there was a wet rain every day in
June and there is no. doubt about
July bringing us a dry drouth. The
gardens are burning up and the
street sprinkler is doing double duty
every day.

Cheap Paint

The cheapest paint is the one that
goes fartherest and wears best; there
is most in a gallon of it.
What is a quart of milk worth? De-
ponds on the milk.
So of paint; depends on the paint.
Devoe is worth the top price, what
ever it is. Poor paint is worth moth
ing at all; you've got to pay your
painter SO or 81 a gallon for putting
it on; and it isn't worth it.
Devoe goes twice as far and wears
twice or three times or four times as
long.
The cheap paint is Devoe at the
top Of the market.
DEVOE r.,
P. B. Speed sells it. ~

SENATE GETS BUSY
WITH LITTLE DELAY
Introduction of Bills Starts I'M
mediateIy After Convening
Of Body Today.

Introduction Of bills was begun in the
Senate today. following the presenta-
ton of petitions and memorials.
Owing to the fact the Senate had to
90 to the House chamber at 1890 to
hear the message Of the President. only
a part of the Senators had opportunity
to present their measures.
Senator Sheppard was prepared to in
troduce the District prohibition bill but
did not get the opportunity. He will
introduce 1t later today or tomorrow.
Senator Thomas presented several
bills relating TO preparedness. Senator
Thomas introduced the proposed woman
suffrage amendment for the National
Suffrage Association.
Senator Owen presented his bill for a
Department of Health. This measure
has been before Congress for several
years. Senator Smoot introduced a bill
to broaden the Public Health Service.
Ordinarily the Senate waits until the
day after the presenting of the message
before introducing bills. 1t depa rted
from that practice today.

Thieves Steal Teeth
Of Big Bronze Lion

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec 7.-one Of the
two big bronze lions guarding the
Washington, street entrance to the
customs house has been outra ged.
Either a thief with no sense of values
or a souvenir fiend filed off two front
teeth Of the animal to obtain the huge
ring that used to dangle from his fierce
some mouth.
The ring. at the present market value
OF bronze, is worth about so cents. Ex-
perts tell Collector Davis that the lob
OF saving through the teeth, each an
inch thick. must have taken several
hours. Meanwhile customs house en-
ployes feel they have been personally
affronted.
