Liberal contracts made for three, six, and twelve months THE ADVERTISER, Edgefield, S. C. WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 17, 1902. Clemson's session had a very auspicious opening, over 500 students being enrolled. The address of Dr. Mell to the students was a gem. Business men no longer re gard the money expended in advertising a useless expense but,on the contrary,an invest ment that yields large returns. -QG> The Hon Chas. A. Woods, of Marion, has been unani mously elected president of the South Carolina college. This is a wise and happy se lection and it is the universal wish that he accept. An Orangeburg farmer re cently realized $3000 from the sale of tobacco grown on 20 acres. Evidently there is more profit in the golden weed than in the fleecy staple. The means used by some candidates to secure votes in the recent primaries indicate that the tendency in South Carolina politics is toward the survival of the richest in stead of the survival of the fittest. V 0 n Kolnitz, otherwise known as the Judas of Char leston's Democracy, was elect ed to the state senate over his opoonent, Grace, by a major ity of 223 votes. It can now be truly said that Charleston has fallen from Grace. N 0 greater compliment could have been bestowed upon Capt D C Hey ward that that of the vote of his home people. Of tEe 2,250 votes CMfrftfl gg,VCTH&1 iii, Colet?n1 ? county Hey ward received all except 58. The great majority of the people of Edgefield county were sorely disappointed in the defeat of Hon W J Tal-j bert, who would have made South Carolina a good, clean governor. We, ho we ver, bow to the will, of the majority,be lieving that the governor-elect will fill the position with cred it to himself and honor to the state. The question of whether to j sell or hold cotton confronts every farmer. A safe rule is to hold when every body elsei is selling. Reports indicate j that the crop will be very] short. The crop, however, being very early, receipts are unprecedentedly heavy, which causes the price to remain lower than it should be con sidering the adverse reports. The consensus of opinion is j that the price will advance when this rush of marketing | ceases. The farmer who owes nothing and is not paying in terest should by all means j hold his cotton. In doing so he helps the one who is com pelled to sell to get a better, price. Doubtless the specu lators and spinners want the crop marketed all at one time so as to cry " heavy receipts" as a cause for the prevailing price. JUST LOOKAT HER.

Many a forlorn maid has said this as she looked into the mirror. For beauty women have sacrificed home, loveand friends. It is the one possession in the lottery of human life which women would not refuse . . BRADFIELD^ Female Reculator for young (pr lion the threshold of woman hood, has '. i ?n invaluable. When they be come pale and languid, the eves dull, aching head, feet ano hands cold, appetite gone or abnormal, obstructed periods and f>ainf ul menses, and their systems general y run down, they need building up, and their blood needs cleansing. Bradfield's Female Regulator for women is particular] valuable and useful owing to its tonic p: ipe'Mes to build up the sys tem, and as a regulator of the menstrual flow?. Painful, obstructed and suppressed menstruation permanently relieved and all diseases peculiar to her genital organs are cured by it.
