We two will live at once one life,
 And peace shall be with us.'' 1 Quite as soon as it becomes known
 among a working girls acquaintances
 that her beau has proposed and she i has accepted him. shegs cts advice from every quarter that she cannot com
 mence any too soon to save to go to
 housekeeping. If her lover is one of
 the easy-gotng kind, who raises no ob- ;. lection to his sweetheart putting up the cash for the furniture and, in fact, all that is necessary for housekeeping, the young woman faces a difficult sit uation.
 Some friends hint to her that if she
 furnishes the wherewithaH to begin
 married life her hand will always be in her pocket to pay bills up to the last cent she possesses, which robs a husband of his manliness in permit ting it. Her relatives tell her if she
 would marry son it behooves her to help start the home, pointing out that although a young workingman may be
 earning fair wages lis expenses are so heavy that what he can save amounts
 to so. small a sum it might take him
 not one, but two or even three years
 to save enough to start housekeeping. During those years of waiting for him
 to accumulate, much might occur.
 ] Courtship, stretched over too long a.
 perfody often IapsesHsinto g. sort of friendship. At. last they part by nu- tua1 consent. If a man is worthy of a girls love and his sweetheart as decided to wed, passing tha rest of her life with him, she should not hesitate to contribute what she can for the worthy purpose of going to housekeeping. The right kind of husband would be only too glad to make it up to her. Three
 fourths of the .worlxingmen of our Icountry turn their wage envelope over to their wives unopened at the end of the. week, allowing her to portion out to him the amount Necessary for his frugal expenses. He has confidence in her ability to save. They are happy in working and saving together Ere the first year has passed over their welded lives, he places in her hands more than double the amount she has expended for their start.
 5 How many rich men today owe what they are and what they have attained to their p1ucky wives who showed faith in them by stalking their all up- on the venture of marital happiness! Many a deserving young man holds back from going with deserving girls when he has mot had the opportunity to accumulate enough to marry on lest he might meet a girl to whom his heart would go out, seeing no prospect ahead of making her his wife I re- peat, to make it emphatic, it all de- bends upon the worthiness of the man as to whether 8 girl is justified in aid- ing him by buying the household goods. making it possible for them to wed. without delay . \ Every important step in life has it's problems Engaged girls should think and weigh them out carefully and act according to their best Judgment. The best-intentioned friends in the world do not always advise us aright..- Fol low the dictates of the heart. which rarely if ever lead one astray in such matters. F

MORE GOOD ROAD WORK.

Probably the most enthusiastic and extensive volunteer road work in Columbia county during the present year has been in Mississippi town ship. On the Minden and Magnolia road north from near Dr. Walkers 10 Horsehead Creek real pike has been graded where over 200 days with teams were subscribed and is being worked. Further south on the same road near W. D. Greens, extensive volunteer work is going on. In the Hudson neighborhood several miles of road have been we'll worked; also north from that neighborhood on the road by Esq. Dumas to the Short crossing on Horsehead, where an eX- cellent pike is being built. These peo- ple are not building roads on account of automobiles alone, as there IS prob ably not more than one or two autos in the township, but they realize the economic value of good roads to any community.-Magnolia News.

WONDERFUL PEPPINA CAST

In the Famous Players Paramount Picture, Poor Little Peppina," Mary Pickford has been surrounded with q east which includes some of the best known Italian actors now appearing on the screen, among them Cesare Gravina, Antonio Maiori, Ernesto Tor ti, N Cervi and Francesca Guerra. In addition there appears on the ros- ter Edwin Mordant, Eugene O'Brien, w. T. Carleton, and others. The ap- pearance of so many Latins in this play, so much of which takes place in Italy and Sicily, is only another in- stance of the determination on the part of the Paramount producers to invest every photoplay with the most authentic atmosphere possible.

NO LIGHT THROWN
 ON SALONIKI FRONT
Dispatches From Far Eastern Front Give Little Light on Allied Operations at SalOniki Berlin Claims Gain.

London, Aug. 23.-Without import ant changes in the main war theatres, interest remains in the allied offensive on the Saloniki front. The latest dis patches throw little light on the situa- tion and the allied plans are some where obscure. London reports that the Bulgarians have advanced along the Struma valley and have en- trenched themselves at various points. Berlin also reports further advances for them on the right wing where they face the Serbians.
 Apparently, however, no action of first importance has yet developed. Interest in the attitude of the Greeks has been heightened by dispatches telling of the determination of the Greek commander at Seres to resist the Bulgarians and of volunteers be- l ing organized for his assistance by the Venezelos leaders at Saloniki.
 There has been no further develop ment in the Roumanian situation Latest reports maintain Roumania has not reached decision. On the western front the French are ap- parently marking time, while the British push against Thiepval anc Guillemont continues. London re. ports fresh tightening of the ring around Thiepval in the capture of POO yards of German trenches south ot the town. Bitter fighting is going or in this section. The Germans sue ceeded in entering some British trenches but were evicted.
 The fierce struggle around Fleury in the Nerdun sector, continues. Tht French claim "an appreciabie ad vance" between Fleury and Thiau mont and the capture of 200 prison CTS. Conflicting claims are made b, Berlin and Petrograd on the fighting on the eastern front. Both repor the capture of positions near Jablo nitza Pass where a violent strugglC has been in progress several days oi the crest of the Carpathians. Berli, also claims the sanguinary repulse o1 Russian attempts to cross the StokhoC and apparently desperate fighting l. going on.
 1 Both Berlin and London continue tC make claims and counter claims 1T regard to the recent fighting in the North Sea Berlin admits that the battleship Westfalen was struck by a torpedo from an English submarine, but maintains that the damage was slight. The German admiralty re- iterates that a British battleship was heavily damaged by German sub marine. This is emphatically denied by the British admiralty.

DECLINE FOLLOWED
 BY HEAVY BULGES
Further High Levels Reached Close II to IS Points Up-Re- ports of Rains in Southwest Caused Selling.

New York, Aug. 23.-An early de- cline in the cotton market was fol- lowed by renewed strength and activ- ity with prices making new high re- cords for all deliveries. December contracts sold up from 14.67c to 15.03c or 36 points from the low level of the morning and closed at 149Sc, with the general list closing steady at net advance of II to IS points.
 Reports of rains in the Southwest caused considerable selling during the early trading and were also consid- cred responsible for relatively easy cables. The market here opened at a decline of to 13 points and the active months sold 13 to 15 points under last nights closing figures during the first few minutes, with October touching 14.61c, and January 14.76c, or about 25 to 30 points under yesterdays high records. Uncertainty as to the course of the tropical storm which was DSliSNcQ lo OS lilONlllS NOWdlQ bllS south Atlantic coast from the Ba- hamas and expectations of a bullish weekly weather report at midday served to check offerings at the de- cline, however, and the market turned firmer during the middle of the morn ing.

SENATE IS DEBATING
 ON REVENUE BILL
Emergency Revenue Measure Coming in For Hard Raps and Earnest Defense on Both Sides-UnderwOOd Defends.

Washington, Aug 23.-Debate in the senate on the emergency revenue bill today was featured by long speech by Senator Penrose urging in- dustrial preparedness to safeguard the country against commercial warfare, at the close of the European war and vigorously attacking the pending measure. He questioned the legality of the proposed munitions tax and criticised the proposed inheritance tax and the general democratic advance toward substitution of direct taxation for the protective tariff.
 Senator Underwood. Democrat, au- thor of the present tariff law and Senator Mclean, Republican,, also par ticipated in the discussion, the former defending the tariff law and the latter charging the democratic administra- tion with extravaganza and deploring it's tendency to resort to sources for federal taxation that should be re- served to the states.
 This question of industrial pre- paredness," said Senator Penrose, "has received definite recognition in the pending bill in the provision rela- tive to dye stuffs. If dye stuffs re- quire protective duty and if they are essential to our industrial inde- pendence conclude that the same argument can be applied all along the line"
 Senator Underwood spoke at length in defense of the existing tariff law He approved the pending revenue bill in its main features, he said, but did not concur in the recommendation fol a tariff commission and increased duties on dye stuffs. After reviewing , the operation of the tariff law anC submitting a multitude of statistic, Senator Underwood said he had "con- clusively demonstrated that tarilI taxes now on the statute books do mol ieopardize American labor"
