A SHORT CHAPTER
on CERTAIN PEOPLE

A remark of lady in NeWberry
the other day prompts the writer to
few reflections. The lays remark
was that certain man in the city
seemed to be lacking in common cour-
tesy or poiiteness, in that, although
ne knows her, he always p,sSes WITH
cut raying the respect thai a gentle
man is. DIE a lady. Nov, while a0-
mi,ting that preoccupation Of mind,
Cr observation-disclosures, plays con-
6, icuous part in such fits of tenn
Drrary alteration. the iady's remark
rals for these thoughts: That man
ay be of the type Of many men IN
= town who receive haC"bty trea.
ment at the hands Of some ladies'.
There are worthy men in this town
r'..o constantly lift their hats to
ladies as they pass, without receiv-
ing in return the slightest acknow-
ledgment that the courtesy has been
recognized. When these same ladies'
ersistently persevere in their deter
mination to be impolite it makes some
men think they, those ladies, do not
desire Jsuch roiiteness shown them
on the Part cf the unnoticed men
Although it is natural for a gentle
man to be polite to lady every
where and at all times, still it Is
extremely more pleasant and agree
able to be courteous to the real lady
who, while she still retains her dig
nifty and bearing, yet gently and with
:" yllke manners, shows that the in
BORN attitude of the gentleman has
been duly noted This writer does
not by any means mean that a lady
must necessarily go out of her way
to exchange a common politeness
with a gentleman who happens no.
to be ION her list" so to speak. It
only requires a slight turn of the
head and a single glance of the eve.
1t is a very foolish idea that seems to
obsess some women to ignore the DO
lite salutation Of gentleman simply
because they do not know him. 1t is
very rude for them to thus treat, or
mistreat. the gentlemen they do not
know but who, in their estimation,
are not worthy OF being placed on
the same footing. There are a few
women in this town to whom it IA
hard for man TO show politennss.
Were it not for the TACT that a true
gentleman is OBLIGED to be courteous
to 2 lady It would be an easy matter
to lct certain women pass unnotic-
cd. But every man with the in
stincts Of the gentleman remembers.

sisters he has. livinr Or dead. moth.

should always show the polteness

the disease is fungus which re-
mains in tie soil from season to

veloDment at this time when clover
and alfalfa are half grown, yet be-
cause OF the cold and rain are in a
particularly susceptible condition. In
its earliest stage the disease affects
the stems of the plants at the surface
of III soil and greatly weakens them.
Plants thus weakened are beaten to
tn grOpnd during rains, and in this
condition. the fungus completely in
tests them, rotting the stems and
leaves into comnact grayish mat
over the soil. A field affected in this
way presents a mottled mixture Of
gray and green.

know these facts, and that You viii
then be willing to make provision iol
such pressing needs. We believe you
will feel, as We DO, that these things
are really necessary for the proper
instruction OF the children Of the city.
Il will take at least an annual levy
CT two mills additional to provide
What we need, and we have asKea
the legislative delegation to secure
the passage Of a bill that Will enable
you to say whether or not you will
allow US this additional levy Of tTo
;. Newberry has now a special
ts.A of five mills for running expenses
and one mill for bonds. Ii the add
tional mills are added, We shall then
have seven mills for running expenses
and one for bonds.
There are other needs such as
additional fire protection, repairs, im-
provement in buildings and equipment
that are necessary for the proper
maintenance and operation of the
schools. A copy of the bill sent by Us
to our legislative delegation with the
request that it be enacted into law

Getting the Submarine.

Allied experts predict that the sub
marine menace will be relegated to
the past tense perhaps by April or
May 1t is estimated that there are
not now in excess of sixty Of the un-
derwater teErors operating against al
lied shipping Since the arrival Of the
American destroyers the sub COM
manders have not been so bold In
fact II is with difficulty that naval Of
ilcials have been able TO secure crews
10 man the subs.
The romance has been knocked out
OF the diving adventure by the failure
TO account for many of the boats that
have gone forth on their ruthless mis-
sion TO report back to their bases,
leaving the inference that either they
have beer captured or destroyed, and
the young sailor who Is asked to be-
come member of a crew OF a diver
being prepared for service is rather
inclined TO believe that the most OF
those that do not return TO the home
harbor are al the bottom of the ocean.
Therefore he balks and elects TO re-
main in some other and safer branch
OF the naval service These refusals
are said to have resulted in many in
stances in court martials and eXecu-
tions as a notice to others that they
had best aoquiesee when theyIre com
handed to help man submarine,

Questions and answers.
Phosphate and ssOitre.

Would q teasp0oBful OF phosphate of
soda in hot water every morning have
any tendency TO cause goitre? &C.
e. Al
Answer.-Hardly. It acts no differ
emily than any other saline catbartie.
II is unwise to take any kind OF salts
every moring or very frequently over
a long period Of time.
Diphtheria and the Heart.

units OF antitoXin. which seems to have
left my heart weak Do you think it
would be safe to have the operation
tAIrs. NJ T. L.
Answer. Only your own doctor can
decide whether your heart is seriously
enough impaired to make the anes-
thetic unsafe. Diphtheria often i'm
pairs the heart. especially when the
antitoxin is delayed or given in made
quate dose Ten thousand units OF
antitoxin is pretty small dose of anti
toxin for an adult, If that was the total
amount YOU received. You are in
error If you assume thai the antitoxir
affected the heart, because it has never
been known TO do so. Diphtheria
poisin unneutralized by antitoxin i:
what makes dipbtheria a serious dis
case, especially for the heart.

medlately after Germany declared its
unrestricted campaign for the very
good reason that il has not such un-
obstructed sailing as 1t had in those
days. The allied nations have been
testing every device invented as an
enemy OF The submarine, and there
have been thousands Of these. some
Of which have been adopted, but what
ones We are not to be permitted TO
know until after the conclusion of the
war. We do know, however, that with
the destroyer and the chaser there is
some continuance working that is max
ing 1t easier to locate the submarine
than il was IN the first days of that
! kind Of warfare And we do know
that the underwater boats are being

that Germany is permitted to know Is
/ that many Of the subs are not return

sunk or taken captive is a question she
