which has always been feature OF

SOUTH CAROLINA.
(By N. O. Pyles.)

South Carolina, rich in historic
lore. with a refined and patriotic
people, full of hope and aspiration,
is in historic interest and natural
advantages among the foremost
States of the Union.
From the rugged crests of the
Blue Ridge Mountains to the she'll
strewn seashore of the Atlantic
Ocean, flow numerous streams OF
limpid water, along whose banks
dwell happy and prosperous people
of almost every vocation and profess
sion.
Of worldwide fame is South Caro-
lina's scenery Of verdure-clad noun
tains and honeysuckled glens, many
of her gardens being among the most
beautiful in the world, notable among
which are the historic gardens sur
rounding Chcora College for Women
at Columbia, and the far-famed
Magnolia gardens near Charleston.
Here, in South Carolina, the mock
ing-bird MARBLES forth his musical
notes on the fragrant and balmy air !;
the sprightly wren cheerily twitters
among the green boughs of pine and
cedar, and "Bob-White" loudly
whistles down in rich, daisy-bordered
meadow. lands, or in sweet-scented
fields of crimson clover, blooming
cotton and golden grain, where the
winsome girl and the playful boy de-
light to roam.

How Pineapple Juice and Pepsin
Relieves Stomach Trouble

The juice of pineapples contains
ferments used by the stomach in the
digestion of food. Pepsin is supplied
by every stomach, but many times in
insufficient quantities. These two
when combined with the other ingre.
dients in Natol Pineapple Pepsin
Compound furnish to the stomach
exactly the right proportion to di-
gest the food. Strong laxatives are
an injury and are not needed where
the food is properly digested.
Natol Pineapple Pepsin Compoun
is not a patent medicine but cor
rective and assistant in overcoming
all stomach troubles. One. bottle
(50c) is usually enough to give per-
manent relief. The McMurray Drug

ORPHANAGE DAY
IS SEPTEMBER 80

Attention once. more is called to
the Orphanage Work Day that has
been announced for September 80
next. Appeals have gone out from
the various institutions to Sunday
school superintendents and all others
who are likely to be interested in the
project. Emphasis might be given to
the fact that Sunday-school and
church people are not the only ones
who could take part in such a deserv-
ing work. The destitute and helpless
orphan should appeal to every indi-
vidual within our State. Contribu-
tions may be sent to any institution
that one may prefer. 1t certainly
looks as if any person might afford
to give one day out of the year as
Labor Day for the orphan children
and contribute the results Of the
day, or the income of the day, to
their care and training. 1t is to be
hoped that thousands and thousands
of our people will cooperate in the
Work Day effort.

"THE STRANGE CASE
 OF MARY PACE"

me- said the prosecutor with honied sweetness. Miss Barton. you are a very good actress, are you not?'
 "GO ask my press agent" she an- swered pertly; and he flushed.
 "Nell, at any rate you can be very convincing in saying things-let's call it reciting lines-that have noth- ing to do with events that really hap pened, can't you? Especially in a sympathetic role?'
 Amy clinched her little hands and drowned at him.
 If you're trying to put anything across" she said slowly. "you've come to the wrong shop. I took the oath and I don't swear to tell the truth and then lie. I'm an actress, not a law yer"
 A burst of laughter swept the room, and the judges gavel came down sharply, though the corners of his mouth twitched as he said to Amy:
 You must confine your remarks to answering the questions put you, Miss Barton"
 Il am,' she replied imperturba bly,, and the prosecutor flushed as he asked sharply:
 Isn't it true that you said you would do anything in the world to save Mary Page?"
 Isn't it true that you're doing everything in the world to ruin her."
 That is not answering my Ques- tion roared the prosecutor. This is contempt of court-you have sworn to tell the truth-te1l it.
 ''Tell it to a polceman." scoffed Amy. II have told the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth and there isn't any more to tell unless you'll let me tell you what poor business I think you have for your part of the show"
 'Silence!" roared the judge and Amy, looking up at his Honor, smiled and brought into view dimple, as she said quietly.
 'Your Honor, I don't mind answer ing questions, but I'm so used to be- ing hOllered at in rehearsals that the usual line of chatter just slips out"
 Again a gale of laughter swept the room, the hysteric mirth of those whose emotions had been brought over to the surface by tragedy. and the prosecutor realizing that the pert ness of the actress was a shield be- hind which he could not penetrate
  after all unimportant, dismissed her with a shrug.
 At her glad, "Oh. can I go?" the laughter broke out afresh: but it died away when she ran straight to Mary's side. and before the bailiff or Langdon could stop her. had leaned over and impulsively kissed her check.
 You darling!' she cried, and sud- denly burst into tears-the genuine childish sobs of one whose heart is i oVerf1oWing with pity. When she was led back to the witness-room she was no longer an obscure little actress she was famous. For the time at least she even overshadowed Mary so much does the old world love those who laugh and yet have tender hearts beneath the gaiety. (To be continued.)

 One of the many methods by which she keeps her possessions down is to have an arrangement with a charit- able agency to call once a week foI her magazines and newspapers. An other is to go over her clothing four times a year thoroughly and give away the things she doesn't need, in stead of putting them away.
 The way those who have hang on to what they have on the bare chance of wanting to use it is one of the most shameful results of our in, herited mania for acquisition and possession. I refer particularly to the way we let a garment hang in the closet for a whole season simpiJ because we can't make up our minds to give it away.
 Why shouldn't Someone Who Would
 Use It Have It?
 Another woman showed me a, per fectIv good suit one day, not much worn and in not half bad style. You're not going to give that away!" said her mother in horror. g.,
 Yes she said, 'I am. I know ] wouldn't wear it a half-dozen times, and those half-dozen times l could perfectly well wear something else. Why shouldn't someone who could use it steadily have it before 1t has gone completely out of style?'
 Why indeed? Besides think of tNT extra hook and hanger she will hays when she gets rid of that suit.
 Most of us don't have room in our homes to live a comfortable, un- crowded life. We dream fine dreams of enlarging the home some day. Why not do the simpler, immediate thing, reduce the contents?
