(Continued from page 1)
fompnnying Congressman Ragst'.ale
party •c-uring the northwest.
Mr. Puyseur is Interested in
number of cotton mills and cotto
seed oil mills, and reports the co
ton industry thriving in all tt
southeastern states. He says th:
r'linters" cr short cotton, • whic
for years has been a drug on tl
market, brings almost as much *
good long fibre cotton, becaus
of its demand for making gun co
ton.
Most ot the South Carolina co
ton mills, be says, are refusir
to acctDt more orders, the one i
which be is most heavily iuterestc
having orders for its full capacit
booked for 10 months ahead.
When stock raising was mei
tionej he said, "We raise a gre;
deal of live stock down in oi
country and horses and mules a)
just as good as gold nuggets. Yo
can get their cash value any mit
ute. The British have overru
our district with buyers for the
amy. At f'rst they were very pa
ticular about the age and conditio
of the animals, but now they tali
almost anything that is 'able 1
stand up and walk and carry c
pull a load. The average life <
a. horse after he gets to the figh
ing line is only about 12 days e
it doesn't matter much whether 1
is 'thoroughbrad or has a scar c
uot."
What do you think of the Me:
ican ai d German situations?" t
was 'asked. "Our people are i
favor of fighting if necessary,
pecially with Germany. We war
the President to be positive i
maintaining American rights, and v
will support him. We also war
him to compel England 'to rospe<
the rights of our shippers, an
sither allow our shipments to pr<
ceed to their destinations or bu
them. We are not considering th
Mexicans very much just now as tt
other tilings seem 'more Important
to us."
He -expressed the hope that
Prebldent Wilson could avert war,
but said the ' nation would stand
solidly behind him if war should
become necessary.

Squaring th« Account.
The Ceutral Law Journal says that
a Philadelphia tailor was shocked ovei
the size of the bill rendered by a law
yer he engaged to aue a customer, and
later when the lawyer bought a suit ol
clothes the tailor retaliated by sending
him a bill in the following legal terms:
"To measuring and taking order for
one suit, $1.50; warrant and Instruc
tions to foreman for executing same,
$3.85; going twice to cloth merchant,
(2.25; fees to cloth merchant, $25; cut
ting the cloth, $8.75; materials for
working, $5.50; sundries for working,
$0; trying on of the suit, $2.75; altera
tions and amendments, $4.50; entering
transaction In day book, $2; posting
same In ledger, $2; engrossing same,
$3.50; writing to the button dealer,
$1.25; filing his declaration — eight
sheets, $8; fees to button merchant,
$9.75; removing the suit by certiorari
to your residence, $2.25; writing re
ceipt, $1.75; filing same, $12.25; service
of same, $1.50; ditto, $1.50; total,
$100.25."
Rubber and Gutta Porcha.
There are Important distinctions be
tween India rubber and gutta percha,
and In the majority of purposes for
which they are employed one cannot
replace the other. While the trees
yielding India rubber are well distrib
uted over the tropical parts of the
world and may be cultivated with
more or less facility, the tree which
furnishes gutta percha is to be found
only in Borneo. Sumatra and the Ma
lay archipelago generally.
In the Stilly Night.
Among the noises of the night may
be mentioned that produced when the
man In the upper flat pulls off his
shoes and drops them on the floor. In
the daylight it would not be noticed,
but In the stilly hours those shoes tear
a big hole In the silence. — Toledo
Blade.
Her Long, Long Past.
renelope— Marcella was in the clair
voyant's room for a good two hours.
Percival—She must have been having
her future told. Penelope—Why are
you so certain of that? Percival—It
would have taken the "clairvoyant two
weeks to have told her past.—Judge.
No Pursuit Necessary.
"Catch" does not Imply motion In
every case. You may have to step
lively to catch a train or a rabbit, but
there is n long list of things, from
hades to rheumatism, that you can
connect with while standing perfectly
still.—Houston Post
She Talked Freely.
"Did she say anything when the
traffic officer made her back up her
car?"
"I should say she did. Slio couldn't
have said more if she had been mar
ried to the policeman."—Detroit Free
Press,
Curbing the Kickers.
"Do you think pretty girls got along
better in business?"
"I find one useful at the complaint
desk, anyhow," replied the merchant.
"A pair of fine eyes will go a long
ways toward making a man think that
his complaint 'was badly founded."—
Louisville Courier-Journal.
Modesty.
He—Why are you always reminding
me that you might have married somo
one else? She—I don't recall that ear
ly error of Judgment so much on your
account as on my own. I want to
preserve In myself a proper Intellectual
humility.—Richmond Times-Dispatch.
