♦ -THE FEMALE AUCTIONEER.”
Well, hear I am, and what of that?
Methinks I hear you cry;
1 am coming, that is pat!
To see if you will buy;
A female auctioneer I stand,
But not to sell for pelf,
For the only lot I've now on hand
Is just to sell myself!
And I’m going, going, going,
Who bids, who bids for me?
For I'm going, going, going,
Who bids for me
Though some may deem me pert or so,
They deal in idle strife,
for where’s the girl, I'd like to know,
Would not become a wife?
Indeed, I really think I should,
In spite of all alarms.
So. bachelors, pray and be so good,
As to take me to your arms.
Ye bachelors, my way tow'rds you
Should not your thoughts mislead;
I've never yet been call'd a flirt
Or coquette, no indeed!
My heart and hand I offer fair,
And if you’ll buy the lot,
I'll vow all Caudling I will spare
When Hymen ties the knot.
♦ THE GLORIOUS FAILURE. ♦
(Minna Irving.)
We t lwavs hear a lot about
Tue people who succeed,
Who start some mighty enterprise,
Or do some daring deed.
Th< ir pictures fill the magazines,
The papers print the tale
But what about the luckless ones
Who bravely try, ar.d fail?
Thp man wimse auto goes to smash
Before the race begins;
Whose aeroplane comes down in bits,
Whose patent never wins,
Whose story never gets in type,
Whose painting is not hung,
Who hopes and t 0.13, ant] dies at last
Unhonored and unsung?
Oh, let us speak a word in praise
Os those intrepid souls
That fight the fight, and start the work,
But ne’er reach the goals.
They go ahead to blaze the way.
They lead in storm and stress,
Their failures ail along the road
Are sing-posts to success.
♦ BEHIND THE MASK. ♦
(Mrs. A. D. T. Whitney.)
it was an old distorted face, —
An uncouth visage, rough and wild—
Yet from behind with laughing grae -,
Peeped the fresh beauty of a child.
And so, contrasting strange today,
My heart of youth doth irnkly ask
If half-earth’s wrinkled grimness may
Re but the baby in the mask.
Behind gray hairs and furrowed brow
Ar.d withered looks that life puts on,
Eni-'i as he wears it comes to kno t
How the child hides, and is not gone.
For while the inexorable years
To saddened features fit their mold,
Beneath the work of Time and Tears
Waits something that will not grow
old.
Rally to the Country Club.
lzaak Waltons are increasing.
Fish on Sunday—-In your dreams.
Tourists are sure to come our way.
8 .niter is a county that all can boost
The Democratic majority affects
Taft's smile.
The worst of the special session is
yit to come.
The new bonds when issued will
bring a splendid price.
To everybody Speaker Clark is still
the same old “Champ.”
Fe an aviator and make a dead sure
rap'd rise in the world.
If there is a champagne famine it
won’t hurt very many of us.
With Congress in session Chau
taqua platforms long for orators.
The Los Angeles dynamiters were
showing ’em the way to go home.
How can a man keep from speeding
on Sumter county’s roads?
Every day helps bring the peach
crop just a little bit closer.
Either sincerely or otherwise a Re
publican president praises a Democrat

Americus will soon add another fac
to:;. f« ,'ts growing list of home enter
prise.;.
The o. anlzatlon of a Woman’s club
here would help wonderfully in civic
improvement.
CONCERNING CROPS,
The prophesies of last fall and the
early spring, which of one accord
pointed to the crop year of 1911 as
giving promise of unusual success if
natural conditions continued to be
normal, seem to be forming themselves
into a notable consummation.
No one pretends to believe at this
early stage of the crops that even an
approximate certainty can be attrib
uted to predictions, because there are
so many conditions that influence the;
growing and harvesting of crops. Yet;
e’ements of promise are certainly more 1
to be valued in any prediction than j
are those of the opposite nature.
Interviews in to-day's issue of The
Times-Recorder, covering both the
local and general field, should prove
most encouraging to every farmer in
;. s county and section. Those who
speak of these conditions are well in
formed as regards matters of agricul
ture Their words, then, are fraught;
with the cheer of promise and fulfil-j
menu
There may yet come untoward events j
that may baffle and partly defeat the 1
fanner who has most alluring pros
pects now, but there is nothing thatj
can take from him the valuable expe- j
rience gained In the agricultural re
awakening that has swept over this
section and the entire state during the
past few years and which has been es
pescially felt during the past year.
Crop conditions in Sumter and sur
rounding counties are almost univers
ally good. The soil has been well pre
pared, good stands of cotton and corn
have been secured and every prospect
pleases. With careful attention to the
cultivation and harvesting of crops, the
farmers of Georgia should experience
next fall a feeling of general satisfac
tion and prosperity,

An American archeologist with a

1 lace is this?”
1 “This is the ruins of the Forum,” re
sponded the archelogist.
“And what might that be?” she
- asked.
Amused, but glad of a chance to in
duct a fresh mind into his hobby, the
1 archelogist explained. He waxed elo
quent; he began at its foundation; he
pictured the pageant after pageant of
-history, the successive armies and
races that made that spot memorable.
Finally he ran down for want of
e breath.
“My!” she said. “Quite a historic
spot, isn't it?”—Success Magazine.

She Had an Advantage.
Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske, the ac

a young woman at her home, say 3 the
: Ladies’ Home Journal. Th“ actress was
very tired *aud quiet, hut a chance re- j
mark from the dresser made her open 1
her eyes and sit up.
“I should have went on the stage,"
said the young woman complacently.
“But,” returned Mrs. Fiske, “look at
! me—think how I have had to work and
study to gain what success I have and j
win such fame as is now mine!”
“Oh, yes,’’ replied the young woman, ,
calmly, “but then I have a talent.”
Night Caps Coming In Vtrain.
Nightcaps, the solace of our fathers
land our grandfathers, have gone out of j
fashion, says the New York Sun. No
one—or but few —wear these cosy j
coveralls for bald heads that were cop
| sidered indispensable a generation ago
, or so.
A gentleman who likes to sleep with
j his bedroom window open, but who
j cannot because he catches cold in the
balld pate, sought all over New York
j for nightcaps lately. In one big de
\ partment store he found them. He was
enquiring for “children's caps made of
‘ I stockinette or something of that sort.”
. The saleswoman cross-examined him
so rigidly that he unconsciously lifted
his hat. “Oh, you mean nightcaps,”
“she exclaimed. “We're the only store
• in New York that keeps 'em. They're
i coming into use again. Where we sold
a dozen last year we’re selling a hun
dred now. Fresh air. That’s the 1
answer.”
After Nautical Style.
Some years ago, says the London
: Telegraph, a slow sailing vessel when
■! some 600 miles out from Liverpool
•j picked up a lus’y youngster of 5 lash
red to a mast.
The captain took a great liking to
him, called him his son, and decided
that the little chap must be christened
—one of few things which he knew
. i must be attended to in the case of
I! children.
Os course, there was no chaplain
( aboard, so the captain himself un
■ dertook the ceremony. He gathered
. the crew about him and, with a mixed
knowledge of his duties, he glared
about him and asked whether any one
knew just why the boy should not be
f christened.
t “If there is,” he roared, “speak up
j like a man, or forever hold your
. j tongue.”
Then he suddenly cracked a bottle
!of wine over his head and christened
, him.
The ocean waif is now settled down
g —a steady longshoreman, but he still
[relates with satisfaction the story of
| his christening.

SINISTER
B y FRED L. YOUNG
Copyright by American Press Asso
ciation, 1911.
We are apt to prize what we are not
used to. 1 suppose one reason the
daughters of our multimillionaires are
Inclined to marry foreigners with titles
is that titles are not an American in
stitution. What gives them their glam- .
our is that they are not American.
When on a visit to England I visited
the Earl of Banuerton. We were sit
ting one evening together drinking port
wine and smoking. The walls were
covered with portraits of his ancestors.
“We Americans," I said, “envy you
your family histories, your blood, your ,
ancestral homes. What a fine thing I
it is to feel that you have pure blue |
blood in your veins, especially when |
there is no taint in it.”
The earl smiled. “What would you ,
say,” he replied, “if I told you that my ;
grandfather was a highwayman?”
“I should say you were amusing
yourself.”
“He was."
“A highwayman?”
“Yes. Come, I will show you his j
portraits and that of his wife, my
grandmother."
He led me into a room used exclu
sively for family likenesses and stop
ped before two portraits, a young
man and a young woman. The man ;
must have been extremely handsome, i
We sat down, and he told me their j
story while I was looking at them as j
they were when the events narrated ■
occurred.
“The young bloods of England in j
olden times were not as vicious in
some respects as they are today. They
drank pretty burd, but they were not j
effeminate. When they were not
fighting foreign enemies or engaged in
cruel warfare an outlet was required !
for their surplus vitality. One day Sir
Roger Smartleigh was driving on a
road with his daughter Clarissa—the j
girl faced lady you see before you— [
when his coach was stopped. A horse
i man appeared at the window and de- j
manded what he called ‘alms.’ He
was masked, of course, but he had the
manner of a courtier. Captivated by
Clarissa’s beauty, be swung his hat
in deference to her like the hero of a
sixpenny novel of the present day.
Sir Roger emptied his pockets, holding
out the contents, with his watch, to
1 the highwayman.
[ “ ‘Never mind those,’ said the rob- |
ber. ‘lf the young lady will give me
that bit of lace she wears about her
' throat I will ask no more.’
‘ “Glad to escape with so little dam- j
age, Sir Roger bade his daughter give
> np her lace. She obeyed like a duti- |
. ful child, handing it to the highway- I
i man.
“‘I only ask it as a loan,’ he said,
■and will bring it to you in person.’
1 “‘lf you do.’ said Sir Roger, ’you
will be taken and hanged to the liigb
i est gibbet in England.’
1; “ That prospect will only enhance
,- the zest of the visit.’ replied the man.
‘Besides, to see this beautiful girl
once more I would be willing to dan
gle from a rope’s end.’
“The coach was driven on and the
’ highwayman left behind.
* j “Several mouths after that Sir Roger
| and Lady Smartleigh gave a masked
’i ball. The dancing was at its height
I when Clarissa observed a figure dress
ed as a Spanish toreador which seem
ed to her the acme of manly form.
Determined to discover if possible who
; he was, as soon as the dance was fin
ished she resolved to join him. When
he parted from his partner he made
her a bow, sweeping the floor with his
hat, and she knew there was but one
; man in England who could make so
I grand a salute.
“She stood undecided, her heart beat
.! Ing like a kettledrum, for she knew
the highwayman had come on his
| promised visit, and she remembered
' | her father's threat. At the moment
the highwayman turned and. seeing
her, came toward her, thrusting into
her hand a bit of lace. His own hand
touched hers, and he felt hers trem
ble.
“That touch, that quiver, precipitat
ed a love affair. The man knew she
was trembling for him, and she was
infatuated by the frightful risk he ran
to visit her. He drew her hand through
his arm and led her out on to the dim
ly lighted terrace.
i “There was the usual melting of the
woman under the warm sun of love.
I At first she demanded In an assumed
tone of severity what right he had
there, and when the rascal told her
that he had come to see her end die
she threw her arms about him and
begged him to flee for his life. How
he could flee when she wouldn’t let
him go I don’t know. Sir Roger had
got a glimpse of the fellow when he
was making his courtly bow and, hav
ing seen it before, knew his guest. He
made his way through a crowd of
dancers as fast as he could, but before
he reached his man the latter had dis
appeared, for Clarissa, hearing her fa
ther roaring and swearing and crying
‘Where is the villain?’ opened her
arms, and the robber was in the gar
den and over the fence like the boy of
twenty-two he was.
“Clandestine meetings between the
lovers followed the ball, and a secret
marriage followed the meetings. The
highwayman— the handsome chap was
the second son of my great-grandfa
ther—did not live with his wife for
two years after their marriage, for if
he had showed himself he would have
got the rope. But after his elder broth
er died childless and he inherited the
title he got a pardon and acknowledged
his wife, and I am one of their de
scendants.”
