Watus, of Modos, j came over on Saturday last^for his daughter, Miss Eva, who had been attending the summer school. He reports the crops in his section of the county to be very good . The rains have come just as they were needed. Mr. Floyd Davis stopped ovei in Edgefield for several days while en route from Nashville to his father's home near Richardson ville, Saluda county. After gradua ting from a business college- in Nashville Floyd accepted a posi tion as book-keeper with a large telephone company. Miss Minnie Lanham and lit tle Helen Dorn r elurned ou Suoday after a delightful visit of a month to Mr. and Mrs. Thos. B. Lanham at Harrodsburg, Ky. Sweet and pretty little Miss Ethel Lanham returned with them, and aud probably Mr. Lanham will come later on a visit. Let us hope so. Some weeks ago handsome young Pat Blalcck, to use the ver nacular of the street, was consid erably under the weather, but h? bas suddenly h?.d the bloom of youth restored to his cheeks. Whence this magic cure? Can jti be because he bas resumed his vis its to Buncombe, by night as well as by day, where the atmosphere j is as pure as aro the mountain zephyrs. In spite of the rain and lower ing clouds the ladies of the Edge field Literary Club sold ?*.ll of their refreshments on Thursday eveuing last at the home of Mr.: and Mrs. B. B. Jones, realizing the sum of $14 net. The occasion was so thoroughly enjoyed that many have expressed the hope that these ladies will give another festival before many days pa?s. Mr. R. H. Mims took several splendid pictures of groups of the summer school. In one group there were exactly thirteen young ladies, one of whom objected strenuously to being photographed as one of thirteen. Mr. Mims assured her that he would be respousible for all damages that might arise from such a cause. This allayed her fears and the picture was taken. Edgefield's crop of babies had been very satisfactory this year. Two birth? a day is a good show ing for a town this size, Probably th? Dext announcement will bel twins. Who'll h." the happy pa-J rentB? In consequence of the pres^ ent birth rate the supply of nursag is not equal to the demand. However, the soothing syrup and goddart and carriage dealers have replenished their stocks. The duller the days the hard Mr. J. Hubenstein works and t more he advertises. As a result is selling the goods. Mr. W. R. Oovar accompanii Mr. Lewis P. Covar to his hoc in Orangeburg on Thursday, i turning on Saturday. Young man, don't flatter you self that you have made an ii pression when a girl smiles at yo PerhapB ehe is too well bred laugh. Mr. A. S. TompkinBhas retur ed after spending a fortnight Chick Springs. He reports ve] favorably upon the Focial atmo phere and youth-restoring wat of this popular resort. Our pretty young friends froi Augusta, Hisses Stella Walker an Lizzette Randall, are again in ou midst and all Edgefield is brigl ter and happier by reason of thei presence. Dr. James S. Byrd, who ht been very favorably received b the public Bince he recently oper ed his office in our town, will a teud the State Dental associatio at White Stone Springs the latte part of this week. A New York judge has decide that a newspaper is not lega ll responsible for the character c the advertisements that appea in its columns, the advertise alone being responsible for dan ages in the courts. Notwithstanding the fact tha the summer girl wears BO fei clothes, and those few are vcr filmy and gauzy, yet it require about fourteen trunks to trane port her wardrobe to the seashore mountain resort or "watering1 place. The Edgefield merchants' hav only sold about one fifth as mud corn as they did last year. Fron the present outlook, however, i appears that a much larger quao tity will be sojd next year. Ha< it cot been for the latter rains tb corn crop would be almost a tota failure in many sections. We conversed with several rep resentative citizens from differen sections.of the county concerning the liquor question on Saturday last, three of whom were formerly very ardent supporters of the dis peusary. T?ese geutlemeu al agreed that the dispensary woulc be voted out three to oue. On July the 4th there arrived "i little son at the hope o: Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Peak, and s little daughter at the home of Mr and Mrs. W. A. Byrd. Mastei Peak has already made an engage ment with Miss Byrd to take her to Centre Spring picnic in hit automobile and has engaged the editor of the ADVKRIISER io bt his chauffeur. The members of the Chronich staff have ali hied themselvee away to; the spriugs-Bretbrei: Bacon and Cheatham to White dione and Brother Russell tc Centre Spring. The Dragoons will |be in mortal trepidation when this intelligence reaches them, lett our friend drink the spriug dry before the picuic. It ?B up to Capt. Blocker to despatch a courier al once with peremptory orders. The gospel of happiness is one that every woman should lay tc heart. What it means to a man tc come home at night to a cheerful wife no one but he who has had io fight the hard battle of life knowe. If he is prosperous, it is an added joy; but it is in mis fortune that it shines like a star in the darkness. A complaining wife eau kill the last bit of hope and courage in a sorely troubled heart, while a cheerful one gives new courage ;o begin the fight over again.-Ex. Mr. W. G. Reynolds, the new night superintendent of the cot tou mill, has arrived and has en tered upon the discharge of his duties. He is a practical and very successful mill mau, having Btudied the business since he was nine years of age. Mr. Reynolds came from Concord N". C., where he has been in the employ of a large mill. He will bring his family from Concord to reside in Edgefield, and we trust that hey will make our towu thoir perma nent home. Mr. J. Frauk Fair has been spending several days with his auut, Mrs. N. L. Brunson and sisters, Misses Kellah and Mary Fair. Since going to Atlanta Frank has climbed the ladder of success by leaps and bouuds. Ho is 30W secretary and treasurer of a large wholesale grocery concern, whose enormous business aggre gates three fourths .of a million dollars per annum. Frank's life is entirely too strenuous however. H?B Edgefieldjfrieods and relatives are not at all satisfied with a visit of three short days. Cashier W. Ho'loway Harling, accompanied by Mrs. Harling and the little ones, attended a neigh borhood picuic at his old home near Berea ou Friday last. The occasion afforded an opportunity for the coming trgether of the old as well as the young for miles around. In addition to the usual picnic dinner barbecued meats were a part of the menu. Despite the heat and perspiration, the young people tripped the light fantastic, until lengthening shad ows betokened the approach of nightfall, upon a pavillion that had been provided for the purpose. These small picnics, at which friends and neighbors are brought ia close personal contact, fill a niche in the social life of a com munity that naught else can fill. They should he m.ada annual oc casions. A great maDy farmers are more alarmed over the fact that cotton is blooming near the top than they are over the "leak" in the agricultural department. Quite a number of farmers have called our attention to the height of cotton blooms from the ground, expressing the belief that the "bottom" crop will be very light. Did you ever before see cotton bloom in the top early in July? On Saturday last our town was thoroughly alive with dozens of the pretty young teachers who had just completed the month's course at the summer 6chool. They were hurrying hither and thither, shop-J ping and bidding adieu to friends before departing for their homes. We shall.'greatly miss these young, ladies, also young Pat Bussey who was the only male teacher, if we have been correctly informed, in attendance upon the summer school. Young Mr. Bussey is a most exemplary young man, and fortunate indeed will be the pa trons who secure his service as teacher. Election for Cotton Weigher. We hereby give notice that there will be an election held at Edgefield court house on Satur day, August the 5th, for the pur pose of electing a public cotton weigher for the town of Edgefield for the term of one year, begin ning September 1st 1905. All qualified electors who market their cotton at. Edgefield are en titled to vote in said election. D. P. SELF R. C. GRIFFIS J. R. BLOCKER. Board of County Commissioner.

On Thursday, July 20th, at 8:30 p. m., there will be a quiet home wedding in Atlanta in which Edgefield feels thn keenest inter est. On this date Miss Louise Holt Gibson, the only daughter of Mrs. S. B. Gibson, will be married to Mr. William Clyburn who was formerly from Kershaw, S. C. The marriage will bo solemnized at the home of the bride's mother. 10 Woodward Ave., only a few near relatives and friends being present. The cermony will be per formed by Rev." T. H. Gibson, a cousin of the bride. Miss Louise spent the happy days of childhood and girlhood in our town, where she waB uni versally beloved. Her hundreds of Edgefield friends still have an abiding affection for her, and ex tend congratulations in advance with the wish that her future bei one of unalloyed happiness. Adams-Getzen. .To-day at Fort White, Fla., a highly esteemed son of old Edge field couuty will lead to the altar a fair young daughter of the "Land of Flow TP," whose ancestors were originally from thiB county-Dr. B. M. Adams, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Adams, will wed Miss Maude Getzen, the youngest daughter of Capt. and Mrs. T. W. Gjtzen, and the grand-daughter of the late Rev. S. P. Getzen, who for a number of years was'a very active and useful pastor in this county. We can scarcely ?ealize that our esteemed young friend is married, being only a few years a student of *.he S. C. C. I. He is now a full ^fledged physiciau, having graduated in May from the Geor gia Medical college. His bride is a very accomplished young lady and will be a valuable acquisition to Edgefield society. Dr. and MrB. Adams will reside near Lenoir in the southern part of the county. We make a specialty of framing Diplomas, odd size pictures etc. W. E. LYNCH & CO. Testimony ol a Thoughtful Man. A gentleman who resides twelve miles north of the county seat said to the writer ? few days ago: "If we do not get rid of the dispensa ry I do not Bee what is to become of the boys and young men in the country. A young man who likes whiskey will go to Edgefield and buy a half gallon of mean liquor j for eighty ceutB, and bring it home and demoralize half a dozen boys with it. Often they carry it to church on Sunday and drink it out in the bushes. You all in the towns do not see near the evil from the dispensary that we do who live in the country. The old bar rooms corrupted the towus but the dispensary is corrupting the country people." The condi tion set forth in the foregoing is what this thoughtful and very reliable citizen haa seen with his own eyes-not what he has heard. Are the people of Edgefield couuty willing, for the few dol lars that are paid into the public treasury by the dispensary, to stand by and see the boyB and young men of the country thus debased and debauched. We do not believe that they are. Father, who knows but what if this de plorable condition continues, your bright boy will become a victim of this forty-cents-per quart corn liquor. Aid in stamp ing it out before he suffers from its blighting influence.

Woodward, of .North Augusta, who preached two very able sermons from the Baptist pulpit on Sunday last, in speak ing of how utterly worthless are some young men, by reason ot their having been reared in ease a*?il luxury, said: "Tbe^ best, thKgg for a young man is an abundance of work and some poverty. If you would make a true man of a boy give him some thing to do." No truer words were ever^spoken. Next in importance lo giving the boy employment is making the girls Bhare in the household duties and responsibilities. The young girl who is reared with idle hands, and later in life be comes the head of a household, the mother of a family, and is totally ignorant of the duties that devolve upon her in that position has our profouud pity an/ sym pathy. Parents, teach your chil dren to do something whether they have it to do or not" Tooth Brushes from 5 to 50 cents at TIMMONS BROS. . Concerning: The S. C. C. I. for 1905" 1906. After attending to some mat ters of business, Col. F. N. K. Bailey left for Greenville on Saturday last to join his ohildren at his father's home. From that city he will go to the mountains for rest and recuperation. All of the business concerning the col lege is for the preseut in the hands of Prof. J. F. Entzminger, whose address will be Edgefield.' Prof. Entzminger will begin active canvassing for the school in a few days, having also engaged neveral other influential educa tors to work tor the S. C. C. I. during the summer. The new catalogues will be issued in about a week. The session of 1905-1906 will begin on .September the 28th and no efforts will be spared to make it, from every standpoint, the most successful year in the history of the institution. The next lession of the graded school will open on September the 15th. RogerB ? Gallet's celebrated Violet Water at TIMMONS BROS. Death of Miss Elizabeth Day. Entombed in the newly made grave in Ebenezer cemetery at Trenton lies the mortal body of Miss Elizabeth Day, where it was tenderly, lovingly placed by sor rowing friends on Sunday after noon last. For many mouths this good woman was a patient Buffer er; but on Saturday afternoon "There fell upon the house a sud den gloom, A shadow on those features fair and thin; And softly from the hushed and darkened room, Two angels issued , where but one went in." , The Day family in Edgefield. county has always had stamped upon its escutcheon the hall-mark of gentility, culture, refinement; honor, lofty aims and purposes,' and not oue word or deed of the deceased has detracted aught from this priceless heritage. On the contrary, in her quiet, sweet, gent?o way she has given added lustre and honor to the name which she bnre. As a Christian her life was singularly beautiful and cousecrated. The loss to her church the Church of our Saviour at Trenton, will be keenly felt. The Episcopal rector, Rev. Mr. Prentiss, read the burial service, and, by special request, Mrs. R. H. Mime, MrB. E. J. Norris. Miss Eliza Mims and Mr. Geo. F.~ Mime, of Edgefield, cc ducted the music at the funeral. Citation. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COUNTY OF EDGEFIELD. BY J. D.
