Where Isl the house-fy born? In

there is filth.
Is there anything too filthy for the
fly to eat? No.
Does the fly like clean food too!
Yes, and it appears to be his delight
to wipe his feet on clean food.
Where is his favorite place of feed

Where does the fly go after leaving
the manure pile, the garbage can, the

TRADEDY COSTS TWO LIVES.
Car Runs Into Negro Carrying Drill.
Man in Car Killed.

John A. Payne, white, and John Gil
der, a negro of Newbcrry, were killed
at Gum Spring, three miles northwest
of Newberry, on the Piedmont High
way in an automobile accident Fri
day afternoon. Mr.. Payne was for
emrly OF Nhitmire, but for the past
two years lived in Greenwood. He
was 26 years old and was recently
married to Miss johnson of Lanford
Station, Laurens county. He and his
brother-in-law, NJ. H. Cashion of
Greenwood, were in Ford Coupe on
their way toward Greenwood from
baseball game at Newberry. At Gum
Springs the Newell Construction Com
pany had just knocked off work for
the day. Glider, a negro laborer, was
coming toward Newbcrry with steel
drill rod about ten feet long on his
shoulder. Getting out of the way of
a truck, he stepped right in front of
the coupe The rod went endwise
through the coupe's windshield and
pierced Mr.. Payne's eye and entered
his brain killing him instantly. The
coupe ran against the negro and

but the war office felt confident, and
so assured the Kaiser that the war
would be over before the United States
could assemble. train and transport
an army to France. even assuming
that it would be possible to evade the
submarine menace. So it is hardly
any wonder that the Kaiser. cocksure
of victory, sat down and wrote out
the following terms that he expected
to impose on his adversaries as the
price of peace.
Germany was to get the rich coal
fields of Longivey and Brie in France.
Germany was to get the Belgian
coast.
Germany was to get Courtland and
Lithunia-this at Russia's expense, of
course.
Germany was to get the Azores.
Germany was to get the island of
Malta.
The throne of Roumania was to be
filled by Prince Joachim Zone of the
Kaiser's sons, who subsequently COM
mitted suicide).
An indemnity OF forty billion dol
lars was to be levied on the United

Reading is An Accomplishment

Reading is an accomplishment which
is acquired only by persistent practice.
The near illiterate man reads a
word at a time, slowly and laborious-
ly.
After doing considerable amount
of reading, almost everyone learns to
take in groups of words at glance.
Finally, skilled readers find no diff
ficulty in reading simple matter, such
as fiction or articles on subjects with
which they are more CT less familiar
by paragraphs or even pages.
Emmanuel Kant, the philosopher,
said he could digest any book in an
hour. His biographhers say this was
keen and the art Of reading was so
highly cultivated in him that he could
take in page of printed natter as
rapidly as most of US take in word.

SHERIFF WOULD NOT BE BEAT.
Pulls Daring Stunt and Captures
Two Men and LIQUOR.

Sensational and dramatic incidents
cften happen in the every day life of
a revenue officer or of a sheriff who
is out looking for bootleggers. One
of the most exciting and thrilling hap
pened when Sheriff B. R. Brown and
a deputy got to the river at Hailey's
ferry Just as the ferry boat had pulled
off with car and two men whom the
sheriff had good reason for believing
were bootleggers.
The sheriff determined to catch the
men. There was no boat near, so he
dived in and swan to the middle OF
the river, caught the sides of the fer
~ boat and pulled himself in, arrested
one of the men and put handouts on
him. While he was doing this the
other decided that he would beat the
sheriff at his own game and do some
swimming himself. So he dived off
the boat and started swimming down.
stream. But he reckoned without his
host for the sheriff had his deputy on
the bank and instructed him to follow
along the bank if either Of the men
tried to get away. After swimming
nearly a mile the man grew tired and
came towards the bank and caught
low brush. The deputy was on his
lob and soon had him under arrest
also.
When the car was searched it was
found that there were 80 gallons OF
white liquor in it, in 10 3-gallon kegs.

Had The Kaiser Won The War.

According to the Berlin correspon-

interesting discovery has just been
made by one delving through the
archives of the German Foreign office
to-wit, "the peace terms" written by
the former Kaiser in the spring OF
1917, shortly after America entered
the war. At that time the prospects
for a German triumph was regarded
as bright-in Germany at least. Inc
U-boat warfare was at the height OF
its effectiveness, Roumania had been

 The push rake furnishes the most economical method of hauling hay to the stack. barn, or hay press if the distance is not much more than one fourth of mile. One man. or Il boy. with good push rake and team used to .he work will handle three times as ouch hay as two men with small rack on a high-wheeled wagon.

With & yield Of Nie to one and half tons to the acre. two men on the stack can easily handle all the hay brought in by three push rakes, accomplishing q vast saving in labor and hay over the pitchfork method Another method not so good but still vastly better than the pitchfork method is a stacker equipment with double harpoon fork. The outfit can be made at home and will cost very little com paret with the labor 1t saves, but harder work Is necessary to get the hay on the stack than with the over shot stacker
