The misstatement, made either expressly or by implication occurs in practically every newspaper down that way. It has gone abroad and is accepted by such journals, for example.

The New York Tribune. To be sure Doctor Houston spent most of his early life in South Carolina, had the first part of his college training there, was superintendent of the Spartanburg public schools for three years. And if he had been born in South Carolina the people on this side of the line would have regarded the Missouri educator as not really less a man from home. North Carolina people are never taught to pervert or ignore history, bad habits in which regard have. became a South Carolina tradition, especially toward North Carolina.

Why not begin clearing them away? He Stopped" His Paper. The other day a cranky sort of an old man came into this office and stopped his paper because something in it did not just suit his fancy, says the Powhatan Bee. We have frequently met him on the street since that time and it is amusing to note the look of surprise on the old fellow's face that we are still in existence regardless of the fact that he had stopped his paper. Some day and it won't be long either that old gentleman will turn up his toes. His heart will be stilled for-eer.

Neighbors and friends will follow his lifeless remains to the silent city and lay them to rest among the flowers. An obituary will be published in these columns telling what a kind father, a good neighbor and beloved citizen he was which the recording angel will overlook for charity's sake, and in a very short time he will be forgot ten. As he lies out there in the cold, cold graveyard wrapped in the silent slumber of death, he will never know that the last kind word spoken of him, was by the editor of this paper which in life he so spitefully Did you ever pause for a moment and think that your editor, whoever he may be, will write your obituary some day?

For going from Rome to Cairo to treat Mr. J. P. Morgan, Prof. Giu seppe Bastlanelli received $20,000.

He didn't charge it and didn't need to as Mr. Morgan thoughtfully en closed a check for this amount when Inviting Professor Bastlanelli to look him up for a few days. Of course he could far better afford to do so than Senator Overman could afford to pay the $800 (reduced from a $1,000) which a Washington surgeon charged for getting out his appendix after It had suddenly brok-on loose. Doubtless this Washing ton doctor's charging nerve is far stronger than Prof. Bastlanelli can boast.

Doubtless too, Senator Overman would have come across as liberally as Mr. Morgan did had he a Money Trust at his command.

At UarshviHe on 1st an i 1 Holidays of each month end acorns fell, children would play a game they called, And they picked up bushels of my The rain and sunshine poured over me for years and after awhile my neighborhood was alarmed by the news of woodsmen that were cutting us down.

They did not bother me for a long time, but after awhile a man said, 'look at that tall, stately oak, would it not make fine desks for school 'Yes, it would be good for many was the 'reply. "I became very frightened at I thought I must surely die. So at the leader's command the woodsmen came and whacked and whacked on my trunk. I felt my limbs shake and quiver. All at once I began to rock.

The men ran for their lives. Their was a tremendous crash. And lo! I was fallen from my high estate. "The men ran back to me. They cut off my limbs and cut my body tuto pieces about twelve feet long.

"There was a swift river near the camp that flowed directly to a saw mill. These pieces with many oth ers were sent floating down the river to the saw mill. There I was changed into lumber and put up to dry. I lay here for a long time and had a nice rest. Later I was carried to a mill where I was made so white and smooth I hardly knew myself.

"Next I Was sent to a large fac tory where I met a great many peo ple. I was told that my beat friend would be Mr. Iron. I wondered how he would prove my friend and learned that I would some day be desk for boys and girls and that he would be my chief support. "One day an order came for a great many desks to be sent to a nice town called Monroe, North Carolina.

'We arrived a few years ago and all of my friends that were my size were put in the ninth grade room. But later this room was given to the seventh grade and the teachers gave me to you. "I am glad for you to use me, but Douglas, please do not abuse me. The next time you thoughtlessly cut me with your knife I shall remind you of the time when I was a handsome oak. As shool is out now, I shall say 'good-bye' to you till Don't Let the Children Stop School.

Pageland Jounal. This is about the time of year when so many parents stop the chil dren from the schools on the pretext that they are needed at home, but they are needed even more at schoov A day at school Is worth many at home, for if the men Btart, right and will not be needed very much for several weeks, and the few bushes and briars they would cut down and the other little things they would do are as nothing compared to the store of knowledge they would be able to get if they apply themselves at school for the same length of time. Parents, you owe It to your chil dren to send them to school every day possible. The old plea that what was good enough for you Is good enough for your children has long since been discarded by all right thinking parents. You know very well that you were young and that the demand for training was by no means so insistent as it is today.

You probably had about the same chance to get an education that other boys and girls of your time had, and were therefore able to make your way along with other folks. Suppose you try farming this year with tools and other equipment that your grandfather, used, and see If you cant get some idea from that as to what chance of success your boy or girl will have in life if you only give him or her the same chances children had fifty years ago. Education is not a lux ury, but it is a necessity. By all means let your children attend every day of school that is placed in reach of them, for there is no danger that they will get too much learning. Horses Fed by Clock.

Wadesboro Ansonlan Only a tew weeks ago a Union county man was boasting that he had invented an arrangement by which he could He in bed, pull a wire and feed his horses. That's nothing to speak about. Mr. Allen Carpenter of Hart Brothers dur ing his day on the farm, rigged up an outfit that would turn the feed into the horse troughs when an alarm clock sounded. All he had to do the night before was to put the feed in the place above the trough, set the clock at the proper hour for the morning feed and go -to bed, knowing that at just the right time, whether he was awake or asleep, the horses would get their breakfast.

Mr. W. P. Dunlay, suprelnten- dent of the Yadkin River Power Co's station here, has, arranged an alarm clock attachment to cut off the street lights each morning. Are You Constipated? 1 If so, get a box of Dr.
