Advice to
Lovelorn
By Beatrice Fairfax.
FRANKNEss THE ANSWER.

FhANkNESS THE ANSWER
DEAR MICS FAIRFAX:
A few months ago met q young
lady whom / greatly admire.
have taken her out several
times. mostly In parties OF three or
four couples, seldom alone. 1.
The other day she informed me
that she had given up the society
OF all her boy friends. who. she
says, no longer interest her.
While I greatly respect and ad-
mire this young lady, ! do not love
her. and am At loss to explain
my feelings. i do not want to hurt
her, but still do not care tao have
her believe my friendship more
than II really Is.
VIII you kindly offer some solu-
ton?
AN INTERESTED READER.
I'm afraid frankness Ia your only
course. Your continued attentions
probably suggest more to the girl
than you want to convey. 1t isn't
fair to come between her and her
other interests, and though 1t take
courage. you ought to find a way
Of telling her just what her friend
ship means, SO she can't dramatize
II too much.

For the moment, after detailing .

little elaboration she remarked
that she knew and loved me well

EHRHARDT BUREAU
Married Men Put Another Over.
W. F. HERS, Manager.

Ehrhardt, August 16.-Much to the
chagrin and disappointment of the
young men OF the town, the married
men nave again demonstrated their
superiority on fAc base ball diamond.
The young fellows played D. good
game but the old timers had the edge
on them and won the game 6 to 3.
Ehrhardt, high school pitcher, who
with a little more experience will
develop into star, was on the
mound for the singles, while HERS,
who was the regular pitcher for the
Ehrhardt team twelve years ago, did
the twirling for the marrieds. While
the marrieds have won both games
that have been played between these
two teams, the marrieds just simply
cannot convince the young fellows
that they are beaten. 1t is very like
ly that a third defeat will have to be
administered.

A Cheraw Chicken Ranch.

J. L. Crawford, jeweler, of Cheraw
who has recently built modern Cali
|fornia bungalow about two miles from
Cheraw, is launching an industry in
our midst which we trust will blaze
the way for our farmers in the poul-
try business. Mr.. Crawford has Sc
cured the services of L. w. Wertheim,
of Blairstown, N. J., who has had "a
years experience in raising chickens
and is now president of the Susque-
hanna Poultry Company, large poul-
try ranch in New Jersey. Mr.. Werth-
elm will come to Cheraw in September
and will build and manage poultry
ranch at Mr.. Crawford's home about
two miles from Cherawl The ranch
will be stocked with 5000 White
Leghorn chickens of the very best
strain obtainable and the equipment
for housing and breeding is to be the
latest and best models now used. For
instance, the laying houses have elec-
trio lights installed equipped with
switches that will automatically turn
on the lights at o'clock in the morn
ing, thus giving the hens a 15-hour
work day.
Mr.. Crawford plans to sell non-fer-
tile eggs for table use, Matching eggs
by the setting, day old chicks and
broilers. He figures he will market
between $4,000 to 10000 broilers a
year.
Mr.. Wertheim, who was in Cheraw
a few days ago closing final arrange
ments, said that the climate here was
ideal for the project and he was de-
lighted with the prospect Of making
Cheraw his future home. The ranch
will cover about 20 acres and will be
nearing completion by October IS.
This will make two poultry busi-
nesses of note for -Cheraw. R. r.
Hickson having for number of years
conducted a farm of possibly the
finest show chickens in the state. His
birds are always among the first prize
winners wherever they are entered.
He is planning to show in Norfolk,
New York and other northern cities
this fall.-Cheraw Chronicle.

RAINS RUIN JASPER CROPS.
No Work Done Last Six Weeks. Wells
All Filled With Water.

Ridgeland, Aug 13.-The farmers
in Jasper county have practically lost
their entire crop this year, due to the
excessive rains. For the past six
weeks it has rained every day, the
farmers not being able to work their
crops. The sweet potato crop was
what many of the farmers planted for
their cash money, but as they have
been unable to work for six weeks it
is now estimated that not over 20 per
cent. of an average crop will be gath
cred. The roads are almost impass-
able throughout the country, the
county commissioners being unable
to work them, due to continual rain.
The people are blue throughout the
county because of the great amount
OF water that has fallen recently, and
those who have wells on their places
no longer need chains and buckets to
get water. All that is necessary is
to dip the water by hand out of the
wells.

Caught Snake Milking Cow.

This is a true snake story, be-
cause Thomas Chapman, most
reliable citizen from the Montmoren-
ci section vouches for it. Last week
Bub Johnson, the colored caretaker
of the H. NJ. Dibble place at the Vale
of Montmorenci, noticed one of the
fine COWS standing hunched and
cramped IN the pasture and went up
close to the animal to see what was
the matter with her. Imagine his
surprise when he saw long black
snake coiled around Bossy's hind
legs with it's head and mouth held
tight to one of the teats busy suck
in the milk from her. AS Johnson
had nothing with him to attack the
reptile he seized large lump of
clay and threw it at the snake, which
at once let go the teat and rapidly
uncoiling itself shot through the
grass.-Aiken Journal and Review.

Ehrhardt Beats Smoaks.

Smoaks was the victim in game
with the locals here Friday after
noon. Biggs, who started the game
for Smoaks, lasted only four innings.
Strickland, who relieved him, was
very effective, but the damage had
already been done and his team could
not recover. The loyal rooters tried
to rattle Strickland, but soon gave
up as hopeless task. We do not be-
lieve it can be done even in Bamberg.
His being deaf and dumb did not han
dicap him in his pitching in the least.
Kearse and kirkland pitched consis-
tent ball for the locals. The score
was 6 to 4.

III North Dearborn Street. This he
conducted until the organization OF
the American Banking Association
with capital of 100000. In 1914,
this association gave Chicago one OF
it's "private banks scares' in sensa-
tional failure, in which Worthington
was charged with having concealed
or disposed of more than 100000
worth of assets.
All these years Worthington's
name appeared in court records. On
April 8, 1907, he was sued in NUM-
cipal court for $500. August 13,
1907, a suit was filed for $4,000;
November 7 of the same year one for
$500; November 20, 1907, one for
$4,000, and on December of the
same year another for $4,000 was
filed.
On January "a, 1908, Worthington
filed petition in bankruptcy in the
United States circuit court at Chi
cago, but the proceedings later were
dismissed. In April, 1908, another pc
tition was filed and again dismissed.
In the three months following August
"a, 1908, suits were filed against him
aggregating more than $4,000.
With the failure of the American
Banking Association in 1914 Worth
ington disappeared and was the OBJ
ject of national hunt. Captured,
he wasn't convicted.
On December 10, 1915, his name
again appeared when he was arrested
in hfs 'treal estate Offices At sos
Courtland building, charged with
having many thousands of dollars in
stolen bonds in his possession.
Seized Again, Flees.
Then, in June, 1919, he was again
arrested, this time in connection with
the alleged theft of $4,000 worth
of securities from the Crlttenden
Company, of Pittsburg. Many of the
stolen bonds were found in Worth
ington's offices.
Placed under $4,000 bonds, he i'm
mediately "ducked''-he wasn't seen
again until Capt. Thomas I. Porter, OF
the secret service, apprehended him
as he stepped on the gangplank of a
steamer bound for Japan at Vancov-
er,: B. G.
He was again brought back and
again through his ''luck" escaped
punishment. This time federal Off
GERS declare he won't escape.

Has a Double Meaning.

The Staying of the German Ambas-
sador was atoned by a large money
payment, by the sending Of special
embassy of Chinese mobiles to Berlin
with a personal apology, and by the
erecting of pylon near the site of
the ambassadors murder. This pylon
stands today in the thought of the
Chinese people as a memorial to the
men who killed the ambassador rath-
er than memorial to the ambassa-
dor himself.-The Review.
