RIDE SERVED TWO PURPOSES
AirpIane Trip Gave Pleasure to Aged
Man and Brought Sister to
His knowledge.

William Dick went out from Scot
land to Australia 20 years ago, and
has lived in the commonwealth ever
since. His great age has made him
conspicuous, and when, one day last
February, he expressed wish to
see an airplane, it was felt that he
ought to be given that pleasure.
Nay, more; when some public
spirited airnen flew their machine
over to where he lived, they took the
old man up for a ride, to his great
delight, and showed him his home
from height Of 5000 feet.
The newspapers of course told the
story, and proud fellow Scots saw
that it was sent home, as well they
might, for even Scotland has not
many sons using airplanes at the
age Of one hundred and three.
And so the news of William
Dicks existence and whereabouts
reached house in Dundee where
lived lady who thought he might
be her long-lost brother, who had
left Scotland before she was born.
Letters followed, and the two
proved to be in truth brother and
sister. Thus the brave old mans
ride in the clouds found him sister
across the earth.

Why 1T DIDN'T BLOW AWAY

While attending college | often
spent week-ends at home. Boarding
the train one Saturday l felt such
sense Of WEAKNESS it was easy to
give myself up to the comfort of
soft cushions. The enjoyment was
brief, for a small, white wisp, which
/ took for feather, lodged firmly
on top Of the seat in front and was
kept in constant motion by the
breeze from an open window. /
tried to ignore it, but it proved such
a torment to my tired nerves that l
reached over to remove it. Fancy
my surprise to find the feather a
thin lock Of gray hair, firmly grow
ing on the head of an old man in the
seat ahead. Exchange.

HERON A SKILLED FISHERMAN
Bird Thoroughly Equipped by Nature
! for Obtaining Food at Expense
of the Finny Tribe.

The heron is an exceedingly grave
and serious bird given to standing
in contemplative attitude by the
water side, a model Of calm re-
spectability. It's appearance when
flying with its long legs streaming
behind is responsible for the stories
of witches flying through the air
on broomsticks. 1t is thought by
many that the heron has an oil
which it uses to attract fish, espe-
cially cells. There is also theory
that herons emit phosphorescent
light from the bare spot on their
breasts, perhaps from the oily,
clammy substance clinging to the
knobs of down, which attracts fish
at night. The blue powder found
in the feathers of the blue heron
may have some connection with this
curious lure. So successful are
these solemn-looking poachers that
this spring some of the fishing clubs
are seeking permission to kill them
at any season for the protection of
their young trout which are reared
in the fish hatcheries at consider
able expense. - Montreal Family

MERELY A PEDIGREED BLUFF
Woman's Definition of What is Known
as a "Swel" is Not
At All Bad

Mrs. John d. Rockefeller, Jr.,
made a graceful little speech at the
opening Of the Grace Dodge hotel
in Washington. This hotel, which
Mrs. Rockefeller helped to found. is
exclusively for women. 1t has many
novel features, among them elabo-
rately equipped rooms where women
guests may launder their own linen.
Comfortable, even luxurious, as
our hotel is said Mrs. Rockefeller,
"there are some women who viii
hesitate to patronize it out of pride.
PRIDE Such pride reminds me Of a
story.
Father, what is swell?' a
little boy once asked.
GA swell, son. the father an
swered, is a lazy loafer whose sole
claim to Importance lies in the fact,
that he once had an ancestor who
devoted his life to hard and honest
work.

WAR HAS HIT LONDON CLUBS


Many of the older London clubs,
at one time SO particular to keep
their membership within definite
limits, are now complaining of lack
of support. Evidently conditions
following the Napoleonic war, which
saw the beginning of number Of
new clubs, have not been reproduced
in the present postwar period. As
the officers of 1915 retired into lei
surely existence ON half-pay, they
needed some resort where they
might find congenial companion
ship, moderate-priced meals, cozy
armchairs and the daily papers with
full parliamentary reports. 1t was
not the rollicking club life that be-
gan in the days when Beaumont,
Fletcher, Ben Jonson and Shake
speare exchanged wit and wisdom
around the table at the Mermaid;
though it became an important fac
tor in the social life of Great Brit
ain But men freed from the recent
war feel less inclined for the arm
chair and parliamentary reports. If
they seek club life at all, it is, no
doubt, in some more cheerful place
than the gloomy, somnolent atmos-
phere that still pervades many Of
these venerable institutions.

IN THE WRONG CAMP

The American Legion in Mexico
City, Mexico, recently received re-
quest from man who expressed
his desire to join the organization
but when his army discharge papers
we're examined, he was identified as
one Of the bravest soldiers who ever
received an iron cross during the
World war. The German explained
that he thought the Legion was an
organization for all soldiers, no mat
ter for whom they fought.

"Dengue" Fever

would like to know something of

means dandy" and is said to haze

afflicted. The disease is old, having
been nuthentically observed in Spain
in 1854. In 1880 it was epidemic in
Spain, Indian and the United States;
in 18l7-1e28 it was epidemic in the
West Indies and Charleston, 8. c.,
and in l84S-1850 in South Carolina
Georgia. Alabama, Louisiana and
Texas. In 1870 another epidemic
spread over India and East Africa
and Java, reaching our Gulf states
in 1878. In New Orleans at this time
10000 people were attacked. Much
the same territory has been covered
at each epidemic.
The fever begins with a chill and
general aching and swelling of the
joints, with severe pains in the
bones. 1t is accompanied by a rose
colored breaking out, and great pros
tration. The disease is rarely fatal,
and is of short duration. 1t is be-
lieved to be mosquito borne but
differs somewhat from malaria.

speak of it, and declare the first day

Know Your Busine..

l once met a grocer IN a small viii
lage who was doing more business
than the average storekeeper In a
town ten times the size. His success
came from the fact that he was keen
v interested in his work far beyond
the mere item Of buying and selling
at a profit. He aimed to know all
aoout the hundreds of articles that
he sold, and in doing this he became
the most widely read and best inform
ed man in his section. He got inter-
ested in the subject of spices and
read books about Ceylon and other
countries where his spices came from.
lie read up on coffee-raising, fish-can-
ing and the fruit industry. Among
other things he learned that, while
prunes are raised throughout the
whole length of the state of Cali
fornia, there is one little section
where they are better than those from
any other part of the state. He ar
ranged to sell only that kind of
prunes. Another thing he found out
was that fish canned in oil improves
with age. When he bought sardines
q put them in storage for six months
before ne sold them. Customers did
not understand why it was that his
sardines tasted better than those of
exactly the same brand bought else
where-but they got into the habit
of coming to his store.-Fred Kelly

South Carolina Home
Producers' Association

The South Carolina Home Produc-
ers' Association, which is an organ
ization of farm women now has ap-
Eroximately 100000 containers of
high class products ready for sale.
About forty per cent of these pro-
ducts have already been inspecto>. :.
Even at this early date numbers Of
stores have placed these products on
their shelves.
In the past, statistics have proved
that eighty per cent Of the canned
and preserved products sold in this
state have been shipped In from other
states. In the not very distant fu-
ture, we hope to establish a new rec
ord whereby this old ruling will be
reversed and the Palmetto label will
be . familiar sight on our pantry
shelves.
There will be an attractive exhibit
OF these products at the State Fair.
Two home demonstration club wom-
en-. who have accomplished some out
standing work along marketing lines
in their own counties will be present.
Two demonstrations will be given by
each, one in the morning and one in
the afternoon. A different type Of
work will be exploited each day.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1922.

We purpose contracting for 500
acres Of tomatoes the coming season
From that acreage we should get two
million pounds, enough to can over
. million No. 2 size cans. That
amount would be about ten times the
amount we canned this season, for
this year was only a beginning. We
hope to gradually work towards q
creamery in connection with the can
merry. 1t will take time to do this, for
Union county is far from havin~
enough dairy cattle to support such
Al institution. In five years thir
could be done. 1t would cost about
six thousand dollars to build cream
cry. We have the lot, right alongside
the cannery. It is by no means an
idle fancy; it is a thing easy Of ac-
complishment. We also have sufficient
ground to build potato drying house
on the same lot. With a plant like
that it will be possible to render yer.
great service to the farmers of Unior

cans Of tomatoes this year we woul'
have had no trouble in disposing Of

Australia Denies Exploitation
OF the Nauru Natives

Sydney, N. S. w., Oct. 25.-The al
egation of exploitation by Austria
III of the Nauru natives, contained
in the report of the Mandates Com
ission to the League of Nations, has
been denied in document sent by
he federal government to the High
commissioner in London.
The reply stated that the condition
Of the natives under the Australia
mandate is immeasurably superior to
heir treatment under German rule
nd declared that they had been fur
.ished with ample medical, educa-
t:onal and other facilities, for which
they have shown appreciation since
he Australian flag was planted on
the island.
The royalty paid the natives from
he phospa.es has been quadrupled,
and fund, drawing one penny from
every ton of phosphate, has been
created for them. All the conditions
of the mandate prohibiting the sale
Of intoxicating liquor and f-earms
have been observed, and g. system of
partial self government has been es-
tablished, the document said.
The joint commission composed of
British, Australian and New eZaland
interests hrs increased the output OF

of river bottom lands and branch bot.

made to produce more corn than the
