The latest cablegram from Con stantinople, received by the Ameri can Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief, declares that many Armenian exiles are reduced to eat ing grass and are dying of starva tion, by the hundred. Think of hu man beings reduced to such destitu tion that they are forced to eat grass! Surely out of our great abundance we can find some little gift to help to meet this appalling need. Money or checks sent to me or left with The Gazette will go di rectly to these starving ones. REV. J. C GALLOWAY, Pastor or the A. R.-'P. Church. Such Insolence!

I have a dime some where in my purse if I can only find it." "So hare I. Wait a minute" while I look." "Ladies," said a large, gruff, man, "I'll pay your carfare.

Yorkville Enquirer. The Torrens system of registration of land titles will become effective in South Carolina July 1, according to a paragraph in The Columbia State. Under its provisions the clerk of court is to appoint by Au gust 1 three qr more attorneys, who are to be examineraof titles; the county commissioners must provide a register of mesne conveyance for the registration of titles. The pro visions of the act are assumed volun tarily. The advantage of the Tor rens system is that after land is once registered under this plan, there will be no further question of the title and it will not be necessary to have the title examined for any subse quent transfer of the land. The ob ject of the system is to give a clear title to land. The Torrens act fixes the fees that are to be allowed to the title examiners, officers and survey ors. The examiner is to receive a minimum fee of $5 for examination of each title of property assessed up on the tax books at $1,000 or less, and for each additional S 1,000 or assessed value he is to receive fifty cents. The surveyor employed un der the provisions of the act is to be allowed not more than 4 0 cents per hour for the time actually employed. In order to guarantee the title, and at the same time protect against loss persons who by the system lose an interest in land not through their own negligence, the state provides an assurance fund, out of which claims W441 be paid. This fund is formed by a fee of one-tenth of one per cent of the assessed value of the registered land. This amount is turned over to the state treasurer. The Whale's Little Joke.
