railroad executives claims before the
Railroad labor board that the carrier:
must adjust wages or face BANKRUPTCY
He also declined to submit the matter

HECKLING THE DRUGGIS'

The popular indoor sport nova
days with law makers is heckling the
druggist.
The druggist must take out IL
cense for this,a special permit for that,
keep a detailed record of sales for
this, that and the other thing until
his head is in whirl and the conduct
of his store a world of needless de-
tail which adds to his confusion OF
mind and his cost of doing business
Why pick on the druggist? He is
not a crook but very valuable citi-
zen whose service in the community
ranks with the doctor and the clergy
South Carolina House Bill No. 19S
simply adds another of those abomin'
able details. Every time the druggist
sell a bottle If tonic, bitters, drugs
medicines, toilet articles, flavorine
extract, he must have his customer
sign a certificate.
The government is not supposed to
issue permits for alcohol to com
pound preparations which can be usec
as beverages.
If the Department at Washington
is lax in the petinonmance Of its duty
they propose to fine and imprison the
druggist.
That is a fine little arrangement
isn't it?
Laws we must have, but lets have
some constructive ones instead Of try
ing to throttle legitimate business
and hanging the hooks into inoffen'
sive citizens.

4 Rebuke to The Indolent.

1t was Solomon who said, $50 to
the ant, thou sluggard; consider her
ways and be wise" Now, if the slug
CARDS in the United States would go
to Florida, they would have ample
opportunity to acquire wisdom. 1t is
said that there are more ants to the
square mile in Florida than in any
other country in the world. There
are ants which will measure half an
inch in length, and there arc ants so
small that they can scarcely be seen
tc move with the unaided eye.
A man,who has had g great deal
of experience with them, said re-
Gently:
"The Florida ants will take out the
lettuce and other minute seeds from
the soil in which they are planted and
actually destroy the beds. They will
get into pie, pickle, sauce, sirup, su-
gar and on meat; will riddle q cake,
or fill loaf Of bakers bread till 1t
is worthless. All remedies failing,

killed, during one week, over mil
lion, in the space Of quarter-acre
lot. and | have almost wiped them
cut.
at is curious and instructive to
see how promptly the ants which es-
cape the scalding will go to work tax
ing out the dead, and, after plllng
them outside first, go to eXcavating
again and rebuilding their cells and
runways. This being done very quick
", the next work on hand is the lay
ing in of a supply Of food, by hauling
the dead bodies of the hot-water VIC
TINS into the storehouses. You may
see a small black ant hauling and tug
ging at the carcass OF a req anu ."eh-
ty times its own weight, and he always
succeeds, in the end, in landing it in
the warehouse Of the colony.
"Next you may see a sort OF ambu-
lance corps searching for the disabled
These are taken carefully into the
underground house, where the sur
geons and nurses are in waiting. Then,
too, you may see the timekeepers and
bosses directing this one, or turning
another back on some GRAND or to
some other duty. There is not a mo
ment's delay; no haulting feet, no Idle
hands; but all move as if it were thel'
last day on earth, and this the only
hour left in which to redeem mis-
spent life. For lessons in industry
and in perfect government, go to the
ants"
