A New England man. lately returned
from a year in South Carolina, tells of
a little darky whom he Clw the week
after his arrival, and from whom he de
rived great amusement during bis stay
In the South.
Th e man waa lying In his hammock
on the hotel piazza one day, and opened
his eyes after a drowsy period to find
a small, coal-black boy regarding him
solemnly, a tall glass o f some cooling
drink on a tray held tightly by both
hands.
“ Who are you?” asked the Invalid.
Id ly; but there was no reply save a
broad smile.
“ W here were you raised?” Inquired
the Invalid next, with a vague Idea

opening question.
There was another broad smile, but

course there are many worthless fel

On the other hand, there are many
employers who treat their men in such
a manner that no self-respecting young

who grumbles at his regulnr work and
flatly refuses to do an extra task is al

employer who is considerate to his
men, who does not lnqiose upon them
by word or deed, is the one who can al
ways get good men, and he seldom has
to hunt them up. The hired man Is
entitled to a good bed and comfortable

Were the farm ers a little pinched for

have remained away from their State

gestive organs it is a natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali

stimulating a healthful activity.
Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes o f digestion and assimilation o f
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bod
breath, irregularities o f the bowels, con
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions.
