Tom Jordan and his friend Glaze
ner of East Pork went hunting last
week near Toxaway. They are look
ing for all kinds of “varmints” from
pole cats to bears. Tom and Jerry
is a good drink.
The talk about the Vanderbilts
and Highland Forest Co. and other
Jarge land holdings, with others ma
turing, is for a speculation in later
selling to the government for a re
serve, is just jiuess-work, not a fact.
Our old friend Mont Glazener is on
the carpet as usual and selling more
goods and cheaper than ever. Capt.
M. R. Gleason says he is sorry that
Renzo had to be Mont’s brother, but
Captain and Mont has him about re-
juvinated with the help of this pan
ic. Hoc-der-Kaiser.
Cap’t M. R. Gleason asks me to in-
forga several of the republican’s who
claim historical sense that by their
own remarks prove that they ar»» to
tally destitute of it. When they
come to the discussion of some of
the political and social problems of
the day this is shown by their appar
ent ignorance of conditions which
logically led up to given iustitutions,
laws or privileges.
Time Exposure.
Rosman items.
Editor Sylvan Valley News:
A. M. White has bought a lot in
Rosman and is going to build a nice
residence on it.
People who handle cord wood are
all puzzled on account of the extract
plants closing down.
Did you all ever think about cold
weather being here? The pretty
snowflakes will soon come to see us
again. \
I saw Capt. M. R. Gleason and
wife at Selica last Sunday. They
were walking very slowly down the
railroad.
Toxaway Tanning Co. at Rosman
is putting up a new smoke-stack. It
will look much belter than the one
they now have.
A certain boy in Rosman is re
ceiving letters from a girl in Foit
Worth, Texas, and Little Peewee
Jsmows who it is.
E. Young, a prominent citizen of
Transylvania, is postmaster at Ros
man now. He seems to give perfect
satisfaction in every respect.
Miss Lizzie Glazener who has
served as postmaster quite awhile,
has resigned as the cold weather is
coming on. Her sweet, smiling pres
ence we all miss.
Ed Taylor, of Rosman, has had
very bad luck with his little daugh
ter Eva. A small boy shot her in
the face with a gun and as a result
she is blind. Her lather is trying to
make up enough money from his
friends to have- her sight restored.
Let us all go down in our pockets
and contribute liberally.

Thore is a s.....
Bronte when a jjirl o*'
out angrily at some one v. a'o i diil ^ Ik
w*as alvraj's talking about clever peo
pie, such as Joliiisoa and Slieridaa.
“Now, you don’t know the iiienulnjj: of
clever,” she said. “Slicriaan inii;lit: be
clever—scamps often are—bat .JoLinsoii
hadn’t a spark of ‘cleveraiitv’ in him.”
That remark really gives the essence
of Johnson and the key to the great
qualities of his work, for in his case
even more than in most the prose was
the man. Whoever wants ‘•cleveral-
ity” had best leave Johnson alone. The
signal merit of Johnson's writings is
that he always means what he says
and always says what he means. He
may often have talked for victory, but
except perhaps in the political pam
phlets he always wrote for truth.—

Fool's Gold.
Pyrite, or sulphide of iron, occurs
quite freely in the iron measures and
granite gash veins in upper Michigan.
It has a brassy color and is know^n as
“fool’s gold” by reason of its similari
ty to the yellow metal in the opinion
of the inexperienced. The miners call
it “mundic.” Few people appreciate
the great value of this mineral. Its
principal use is in making sulphuric
acid, and in that form it is consumed
in very large quantities, much of It en
tering into the refining of kerosene oil
as well as being used extensively in
the manufacture of artificial fertilizers.

Great Scheme.
Mrs. Simpson in her “Many Memo
ries of Many People” says of Arch
bishop Whately: He was utterly re
gardless of appearance. If he came to
us without a servant and perceived a
hole in his black stocking he would
put a piece of sticking plaster on the
corresponding part of his leg to con
ceal the defect.
Foolish Question.
“Hello!” cried the neighbor. “What
arc you building a new chicken house
“Vriiy,” replied Nettles, “for a flock
of pink elephants, of course. You
didn’t suppose I’d put chickens in it,
did you?”
Dodging His Friends.
The following advertisement recent
ly appeared in one of the English .colo
nial newspapers:
“James Saveall begs to notify that
he has started business on his owm ac
count as an up to date restaurant and
hopes that his many friends will jolly
well stop away and give him a
chance.”

A Hard I>ebt to Pay.
‘*T owe a debt of gratitude that
can never be paid off,” writes G. S.
Clark, of Westfield, Iowa, “for my
rescue from death, by Dr. King’s
New Discovery. Both lungs were
so seriously affected that death
seemed imminent, when I com
menced taking New Discovery. The
ominous dry, hacking cough qvit be
fore the first bottle was used, and
two more, bottles made a complete
cure.*’ Nothing has ever equaled
New Discovery for coughs, colds and
all throat and lung complaints.
