that Vanderlip claimed 70 be senator

This statement is said TO have been
made by Leniue TO y. G., Wells the

BIG LETTER FROM CHINA
Written to the President of United
States rs Years Ago.

a news item rs years ago said:
The Emperor of China recently ad-
dressed letter to the President of
the United States. This document is a
serious affair, and has attracted great
attention at Washington, where it has
been received. The letter consists of
a roll seven feet one inch long, by two
feet eleven inches wide. 1t is written
on silk paper, the borders beautifully
ornamented. and the whole inclosed
in a rosewood box. The epistle is thus
translated:
The Great Emperor presents his re-
CARDS to the President, and trusts he
is well.
|. the Emperor, having looked up
and received the manifest will of
Heaven, hold the reins of government
over, and Soothe and tranquilize the
Central Flowery Kingdom, regarding
all within and beyond the border seas
as one and the same family.
Early in the Spring, the ambassa-
dor of your honorable nation, Caleb
Cushing, having received your letter,
arrived from afar at my province of
Yue. He having passed over the
oceans with unspeakable tolls and
fatigue. L, the Emperor, not bearing
to cause him further inconvenience OF
travelling by land and water, to dis
pense with his coming to Peking, to
be presented to Court, especially ap-
pointed Ke Ying of the Imperial House,
minister and commissioned extraordi-
nary, to repair thither, and to treat
him with courteous attention.
Now, bound by perpetual amity and
concord, advantage will accrue to the
citizens of both nations, which, ftrust,
must certainly cause the President,
also, to be extremely we'll satisfied
and delighted.

brought by B. o. Elroc Of this coun'
ty. The action is for damages ac-
tual and punitive, claiming Judge
ment in the sum of $4,000 for al

as it will be a precedent for other
cases which NAV come I'D later.

Kingstree Summer School.

To the patrons of Kingstree High
and Grader School: For the benefit
of those pupils who failed on one or
more subjects, and who wish to try
the next higher grade, the trustees
have secured Miss Rubie Thorn to
teach a six-weeks summer term, be-
ginning Monday, August End, 1920.
At the close of the term an examina-
ton in the work covered will be given,
and if the pupil makes a satisfactory
passing mark, he or she will be given
an opportunity to try the next higher
grade otherwise they will be left in
the same grade; so It depends upon
the work the pupil does as to whether
or not he will be promoted.
Pupils who are behind on one sub
ject, even though promoted, may prof
itably put some time on the deficiency.
Also those who were absent from fl
nal examinations on account of sick
ness of any other couse.
The charges for this instruction will
be one dollar per week. Pupils who
are not promoted and wish to try the
nsxt higher grade are required to do
this work.
For further information apply to

THE DOG is DEAD
And on His Million Dollar Playground
Building Will Be Erected.

The million-dollar yard which Cor
years was held vacant at Filth avenue
and 9th street, New York City, as a
playground for a dog will be vacant
no longer. Tradition has been tossed
out of the windows of the mansion of
broken shutters on Fifth Avenue next
to the yard, and 100000 loft build
ing, six stories high, will take the
place of the pampered pup.
The four sisters of the late John
Gottlieb Wendell, who inherited his
vast holdings in Manhattan real es-
tate, have received from their archi-
tects, John B. Snooks Sons, plans for
the building. The dog is dead.
The sisters-Misses Ella, Georgiana
and Mary Wendell Swipe-live in the
house of the broken shutters, that
mansion of mystery that everybody
remarks as he passes up or down
Fifth Avenue.
Many years ago John Gottlieb Wen
del declined to sell that vacant spot
which was coveted by every man in
terested in Fifth Avenue real estate,
for S5OO,OOO, because his sisters pet
dog couldn't play in the streets and
had to have a yard to run in. Later
the bid was 100000, and Mr.. Wendell
declined to be tempted, and even
81 100000 was offered.
Those who were privileged to know
anything about the eccentric old man
who preferred to ride in carriage
116 years old behind an antiquated
family friend, horse of doubtful age,
driven by coachman who was in the
employ of the Wendels many more
than score of years, remember that
his properties, valued at $4,000, 900,
or thereabouts, were never improved
while he lived.

Jad Salts from any good pharmacy !;
take a tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon Juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid

Out there in central and eastern Eu-
rope, frontiers are f1ne-tOOth combs,

crossing point. Some Of the new from
tiers are flying walls Of soldiers with
h1ed bayonets. Others are guarded
fences.
Travellers without exceptional Gre
dentfals go through searching exam
nations, often bodily "friskings."
Soldiers armed to the teeth guard
the trains and passengers during ex-
aminations and customs inspections,
to see that nobody gets out or in with
out the official papers.
Roads at frontier points are also
guarded by soldiers who preside over
striped gates that go up and down like
the crossing gates of American rail-
ways.
Passports and vises in the new coun-
tries are made as difficult as possible.
Business men are held up weeks, as
rule. The official idea seems to be to
keep everybody that's in the country
