Thought His Chances Poor

Ethan Allen was in church one
Sunday with anumber of friends list
ening to a very high Calvinistic min
lister (exact stature not recorded)
The text chosen was, "Many shall
strive to enter in, but shall not be
able" and the preacher promised his
remarks by observing that the grace
of God was certainly sufficient to in
clude one person out of ten. Second
ly" disclosed the fact that not one in
twenty would attempt to avail him
self of salvation. At thirdly" it
came out that but one man in fifty
was really an object Of Divine solici-
tude. "Fourthly" was announced and
the estimate of elect now reduced to
great correctness, the sad conclusion
being drawn that but one out OF
eighty-when Allen seized his hat
and evacuated the pew, exclaiming,
"I'm off. boys; any Of you may take
my chance. e."-Harpers Magazine.

brought the news home Does anyone
imagine that, with the knowledge,
this country will go back 10 1914, and
rot in the narrow ba-barisms of so
called peace.
Let ME urge you Mr.. Wannamaker,
to carefully consider finding an out
let to foreign markets through well
developed and strong state action,
instead of relying on Fabian federal
of the people, not expressly granted
promises. All of the reserve rights
to congress, rest in the state of
South Carolina, and they are ample
to protect our great money crop, If
we use them with firnness and wis
dom.
The creation of thought is the
greatest factor in all the questions
of life, and you have done a wonder
full work in convincing the world
that cotton is too low. I see you have
made a Bull of my friend Theodore
Price. See his article in Commerce
and finance last week. You deserve
the thanks of the South. Mr.. Price
is a man of wonderful power in fl
nance and when he says cotton is too
low, you may be sure it will go high
er, because he is a constitutional cot
ton bear. I believe cotton will sell
for so cents inside of 10 months, no
matter what any of US do.
Sincerely,
Jno. L. McLaurin.

a marked change for the better In the

Saw ossrss Eiists Chest.

The death Of Mrs. Katherine MAC
quoid, the veteran novelist ut the great
age Of ninsty-three, sewers another OF
the few remaining links with the Vic.
torian past. A contemporary Of George
Eliot, Mrs. MacQuoid used to tell how
she once saw the famous writer IN q

When George Eliot went to hive At
Chelsea Mrs. Macquoid proposed to 80
and call on her. But before she could
do so a remarkable and tragic thing
happened.
One night Nrs. Macquoid awoke sud

and unriistakable. On the following
evening Mrs. Macquoid learned OF
