AU the old stories about the Kan
sas corn that grows so rapidly a
farmer who attempts to cut down a
stalk can scarcely get two whacks
in the same Joint of roe stalk, the Ar
kansas pumpkin vines that grow so
fast they wear out the young fruit
by dragging it along over the ground
or the Mississippi cotton that spreads
out ita branches in such a hurry the
farmer who starts ploughing at one
end of a row ls hopelessly enveloped
in dense foliage before be reached
the other end of the field; pale into
insignificance in comparison with
che two wonderful Japanese bamboo
groves that are to be found I. An
derson, one being in Silver m ooh
cemetery and the other at the resi
dence of Mr. Rufus Pant, who is re
sponsible for their being here. It
la sad that these are the only bam
boo groves in tbe State of South Car
olina, and among the very few to be
found in the United States. It ls
well worth any one's time to go to
Silver Brook Cemetery and view the
remarkable sight-remarkable not
from the appearance of tne plants
(or bushes, trees or whatever else
might be the proper terra) but re
markable in the manner of their
growth.
Process of Evolution.
The principle of evolution, that is,
that mankind through all the aeons
has been growing from a very savage
state into a fuller life and toward
the goal of perfection, is exemplified,
in a measure, in the growth of these
bamboo forests. There is roe law of
the survival of the littest is alt})
carried out in the bamboo forest. The
frst principle alluded to is suggested
by the fact that each year the indi
vidual sprouts come up out of the
ground larger thar, those who burst
up the year before-each season
growing into a larger life and near
er the goal of perfection in the bani
boo code of ethics. The second
principle is borne out In the fact
that the smaller bamboo trees are
gradually crowded out by the larger
onea and eventually go down in defeat
! and death In the race for existence in
j the bamboo struggle for existence.
There are a number of other laws and
j notions ' exemplified in the bamboo
I forest, but enough have been pointed
out. The interested person should vis
it the bamboo grove and do some re
flecting for himself. But now for the
facts of the matter.
Beautiful Sight.
Some fi vp br six years ago Mr.
Rufus Pant received some roots ot
Japanese bamboo that came from the
empire of the Mikado. Some of these
he'planted at his own home and the
others he took over to Silver Brook
Cemetery and planted alongside the
cemetery stream, near the pavilion
He planted, but two or three roots, and
Friday aftern<y.\n when tho writer
visited the spot veritable grove of
bamboo was to be seen. A genuine
forest may be there at this time, judg
ing from the rapidity with which the
I bamboo sprouts spout up and grow,
i Seriously though, the bamboo, under
normal condition?, will grow 30 feet
in 30 days.

Dear Sir; The State tax commis
sion of the State of South Carolina
haa aent me the following communi
cation relative to the enforcement of
the income tax law:
"The timo for making retorna un
der the income tax law of this State
expired on the 20th of February last,
and a very large number of persona
liable to the payment of the tax
omitted .to make aucn returns within
the time limited.
"The neglect to make the returns in
time may have been caused by an er
roneous impression that the returns
and payment of the income tax to the
federal government relieved these tax
payera from maying the Income tax
imposed by the laws of this. State.
"The failure to make retorna with
in time have been so general and
widespread that we think further
opportunity ahould be' allowed such
persona to matte these retorna before
the penalties provided by law aro
Imposed upon them."
In order, thoreforo, to save auch
persons who will now come forward
and wake the proper returns, I, Carl
ton V?. Sawyer, nader, and by virtue
of power conferred ufton tho comp
troller general, with the approval ot
the governor, in Section 767 of Vol
ume 1, Code of Laws of South Caro

for the making ot returns and assess

IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND
'-RICA-CANES GROW IN
ER-UNLIKE MOST
PLANT KNOWN
boo ls a wonderful thing. In Japan,
it ls said, the plant ls the all-and-all
Its tender shoots are eaten for food,
like turnip greens or asapuragus. The
mature bamboo is used for makin?
furniture, building houses, construct
lng rafts and boats, making aero
plants, etc. The fibre of the cane is
used, in weaving of mat?. I .arge Joints
are sawed off and used as water
buckets, while the Joints of a long
section of cane are bored through
with au augar and the things used as
a water pipe. There are hundreds of
other uses to which bamboo is put,
but enough along this linc has been
amid.
Its Peculiar Growth.
The bamboo cane grows most pecu
liarly. Ordinary trees spring up from
acorns as tiny shrubs and gradully
develop into full grown giants of the
forest. Contrary to this principle, a
bamboo cane pushes through the
ground at Its full size, that is, as re
garda circumference. One sprout
seen yesterday measured 14 inches In
circumference. This sprout will not
get any larger In circumference, but
all of its growth will be in one di
rection-upward.
The bamboo canes print; np from
roots that run along under tue ground
for remarkable distances. For In
stance, a root may be planted in a
certain spot, and in a few years this
root will have grown In all directions
for hundreds of feet. At freqent in
tervals along the root routes these
moots spring up through the ground.
And the minute a shoot pushes its
wuy through the ground it starts to
growing a tthc rate of a foot a day.
that ls, under normal conditions.
But a peculiar fact is that the pa
rent root does not grow at the same
season of the year that the shoot or
cane grows. During the month of
August 'he roots push themselves
along un?.'" r the ground, causing the
surface of the earth to become ridg
ed, as though moles were burrowing
along underneath the earth crust.
The roots stop growing then, and In
the. spring, particularly In April, the
)hoots begin springing up.
Another remarkable fact In connec
tion with the growth of the canes is
that a spout does all of its growing
Ul one season. Unlike a tree that
growB from year to year, the bamboo
cane grows to full maturity In one
season, and after that grows no
more; but stands there for a few
years and becomes tougher and hard
er and finally dies.
A Furry Coat.
When the sprouts through tho earth
they are encased in a furry coat of
husks. Each Joint of the cane ts en
cased in a husk. After the sprout has
reached several feet in helgkt :
husks begin tn fall off, exposing the
beautifully colored cane.
A bamboo cane after reaching a
height of sevrral feet puts out small
graceful branches, and from these de
licate twigs which are tipped with
small green leaves. The bamboo does
not sired its foliage until a new crop
of leaves come along and push the
old ones off. Ror do the leaves fade.
The old leaves that are pushed off to
make way for the new ones are as
green when they fall to the earth as
they ever were.
There are a great many interesting
facts about the bamboo grove at Sil
ver Brook cemetery or the one at Mr.
Fant's residence which could be told.
The grove ls most beautiful, both
from the standpoint or appearance
and the character of the s'nade it af
fords.

Hine?. Ala.-" I must confess", say?
Mrs. Hula Mae Reid, of this olace, "that
Cardui, the woman's tonic, has done me
a great deal of good.
Before I commenced using Cardui. I
would spit up everything 1 ate. I bad a
tired, sleepy feeling all the time, and wa?
irregular. 1 coula hardly drag around,
and would have severe headaches con
tinuously.
Since taking Cardui, I have entirely
quit spitting up what 1 eat. Everything
seems to digest ali right, and 1 have
gained 10 pounds in weight."
If you are a victim of any of the numer
ous Ills so common to your sex, it is
wrong to suiter.
For half a century, Cardui has been re ?
lieving just such ills, as is proven by the
thousands of letters, similar to the above,
which pour into our office, year by year.
Cardui is successful because it is com
posed of ingredients which act specifically
on the womanly constitution, and helps
build the weakened organs back to health
and strength.

The Kaiser Laughed.
Among the officers who resemble
the Kaiser Wilhelm II, ls u young
captain who has a prodigious talent
for imitation.
Some months before the war this
captain found himself in a hall of the
imperial palace at Potsdam. He was
there with others of his friends who
were officers, and began an imitation
of the kaiser with extraordinary pre
cision in tone, quality of voice, ges
ture and appearance. All at once
there was a terrible silence. Wilhelm
II had arrived in the ball. The ofll
cers saluted respectfully and re
mained motionless.
"Very well, gon on!" said the kais
er, addressing the captain. "I did not
know you had this talent."
The officer hesitated a moment,
then extending his arm and repro
ducing the intimation of his sover
eign, he cried in a strong voice:
"Captain, you should be chased out
af tho army, but In consideration of
your youth and because I know you
to be a worthy ond brave soldier, I
pardon you."
The kaiser laughed and the captalu
was not punished.
