The deal was consummated last week
whereby the electric light and power
plant becomes the property of L L
Brown. This came as quite a surprise to
Albion -people, who had no idea that
Mr. Rice thought of disposing of this
property. Work was begun on the plant
in 1901 and it was put in operation in
March, 1903. Since that time witt) few
exceptions, the service has been good,
but at he same 'time it has demanded
considerable attention. Mr. Bice is
content that he has succeeded in ee
thblisbing this enterprise herein Albion.
It was a big task, bat he accomplished it
and is now willing to let-someone else
assume responsibility. Mr. Rice informs
us that he does not intend to leave
Albion by and means. F. E. Brown,
formerly an Albion boy, but th- last few
years of Hastings, will be local manager.
He has already moved his family here
from Hastings.

CURE FOR MUSCULAR FATIGUE,
est Method af Obtaining sound an.
Refreshing Sleep.
Real fatigue may he divided lsto
the mental and muscular varieties.
The tetter te decidedly the simpler of
the two. Where one has so overworked
physically that one cannot sleep, ths
first thing to do is to learn to relax.
In such a case the first thing to do is
to take a warm bath. Into which a lit
tie rock salt has been dropped to coun
teract the weakening effect of hot wa
ter. Then shut out every ray of light
from your bedroom and lie flat ob
your back. Do not close your eyes and
think desperately of going to sleep. la
stead, devote yourself entirely to the
subject of keeping your eyes opes. If
they close, open them; If necessary,
evea prop them open with your fin
gers; whatever you do, continue to
stare wide-eyed teto the darkness, and
most important of aU. think of that'
one question only. Is about five min
utes you wUI be so sleepy that so will
power os earth could keep you awake.
The oae cure for fatigue is rest, and
after prolonged physical effort the
paramount issue is to get to sleep Im
mediately, and to aleep as long as pos
sible. AS EXPLAINED BY THE EDITOR.

The Buie's Creek (S. C.) Index to
the Times recently came out with s
double-leaded editorial as follows:
"We wish to make our abject apolo
gies to Hon. Hezekiah E. Kinney
for having said of him te our last is
sue that he 'fumigates his garments.'
What we meant to say was 'fulminates
his arguments.' We have had our eye
on the printer ever since he twisted s
phrase which appeared te sn editorial
of ours from 'full of Internal rotten
ness and dead men's bones' Into in
ternal rattlesnakes and dead wren's
tones.' And as soon as our eye lit
upon this gratuitous v insult above to
the Hon. Hezekiah E. Kinney we
armed ourselves with our repeating
shotgun, sought out the guilty party
and shot him down in cold blood, not
withstanding the fact that the bow
deceased was the only support of s
widowed mother and possessed a large
and flourishing family. We wish to
assure tbe Hon. Hezekiah E. Kinney
that te the -future his person aad his
speeches will be handled in these col
umns with respect" New York Press.
