The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, January 29, 1902. Obituary. With keen sadness and profound grief we submit to that Almighty decree and omnipotent fiat which in the termination of intellectual power and the efficacy of manhood has taken from his utility among men and women, our highly respected and ?1 -3 Po^orift T j uiuiiici) JUVV?V?.V? ?George, whose time ceased aod whose eternity began at bis home in Lexington county on Saturday morning, November 9th, 1901. A man with unblemished shield and with sentiments of truth, liberality and brotherly love has passed over to that undiscovered couniry from whose bourn no traveler has ever returned. During his painful, distressing and arduous sickness, which continued over three years, he bore his unceasing misery with that patience, forbearance and cheerfulness which so VkAAnfeifnllv PTpmnlifies the svmme try of the chief tenents of our mystic tie. He was born June 13th, 1843, in Richland county, thus making his earthly sojourn 56 years, 4 months and 26 daye. In his youthful and jovial days he joined the First South Carolina cavalry, company I, and went to Charleston, S. C, slaying there only a short time and then went to North Carolina, where Johnson's army surrendered. Then returning to his home he commenced life's battle o'er, and by untiring industy and economy he accumulated such a competency of worldly goods as to place him above want at all times and under adverse circumstances of life. Strict honesty and integrity marked all his dealings with his fellow men and secured for him the confidence and esteem of all who knew him. The virtues of charity and benevolence he possessed to such an extent as to lead him to respond freely and liberally to the calls of suffering humanity. He was baptised in infancy rtrttBor mnra rliftn a nnartfir of ft century ago. He died as be bad lived honored and esteemed by all who knew him. He leaves a wife and twelve children?six boys and six girls, two cf whom are married? two grandchildren, two brothers and two sisters. His family mourn the loss of the kindest and most affectionate of parents, but what is to them a sore bereavement was to him an eternal gain. He died having no doubt of his happy exit from a world cf trial, into a triumphal entrance in the land of immortal bliss, and was buried in the old burying ground near his brother's E. J. George. ""Tis not for thee the tears I shed, Thy sufferings now are over, The sea is ca'.m?the tempest past, 1L.1 .1 1 wii luas auvtc. No more the stcrm that wrecked thy peace, That tear thy gentle breast. Nor summer rays Nor winter's cold, Thy poor, poor frame molest." Deafness Cannot loe Cured By local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remiedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. "When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when if. in entirely Dpnfnecs is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. TVe will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catanh Cure. Send for circulars, fee. F. J. Cheney & Co , Toledo, O.

That the Southern cotton mills are doing something for the moral uplifting of their operatives cannot be denied sucessfully. The Clifton and Glendale mills employ about 2,300, paying them annually $300,000. The management bas expended large sums of money for the education of the youDg. Able teachers are employed, often at the expense of the mills, and the schools are opened nine months in the year. Churches have been erected where the operatives may worship as they see fit. Five stores are operated near the mills where the oneratives may buy their goods actu "A. ? - ? ally iu competition with cash stores, and they get them on credit the same as if they paid cash. The motto of the proprietors is "the greatest good to the greatest number." The operatives are encouraged to save their earnings and in every other way made to feel that they have something to live for. The Gaffney Manufacturing Company is another illustration of what mill men are doing for their operatives. At Gafiney the tenement houses are neat and clean and well constructed, onmo r\f tbflin nf hrifilr knd SCrUDU lously clean. The company stores are there for the convenience of the operatives, and no checks used whatever, and the operatives are not compelled to buy of them. A free echcol is operated nine months in the year for the children and the expenses paid by the mill owners. The Courtenay Manufacturing Company at Newry has also erected neat cottages, all lathed and plastered, painted inside and of uniform color. Everything is being done for the comfort of the operatives. Tbe mills are lighted with electric lights, steam heated, and in summer fresh air is forced all through every floor, thus insuring an agreeable temperature throughout the year. A free school is maintained nine months in the year at the company's expense. Finally, the Pelzer Manufacturing Company is also doing a great work for the operatives in their immense mills. They have a $10,000 school building, the teachers furnished free; beautiful churches of all denominai:? ?j _ 1:1?u..:i Liuuo aiiu a iiuiaij uunuiug vritu 6,000 volumes in it, and a large number of papers and periodicals, furnished free by the company. Compulsory education obtains at these mills. The head of every family working in these mills sign an agreement before getting employment, the first clause cf which says that all children, members of any family between the ages of five and twelve, shall enter the schools maintained by the company, and shall attend every school day during the year unless prevented by sickness, etc, As an additional inducement childreu who attend school every day, receives a reward of 10 cents at the end of each month. Lectures with stereoptican pictures are also provided, and are of the highest order of illustrative entertainment. lnere is no company store and operatives buy where they please. No liquors are sold in Pelzer, and the people have emphatically voted against dispensaries. Piedmont is still another illustration, and there are many others scattered throughout the State. Let the reader remember that the story of the awful neglect and bad treatment of children of mill operatives is conjured up by the sentimentalists and labor agitators to work upon the sympathy of the credulous public. TV. ftvn or/i /Inn enmo oImiqao knf JL UCl c. C4iC7 J-i <J UUUUl Hk/UCCC) UUl but mill owers are fast coming to realize that good treatment of their help pays, both in money and in the consciousness cf helping to uplift the poor who leave the farm to the negroes and go down to where schools, and churches, free libraries, parks and pleasure grounds conduce to their pleasure and their educational advancement. A Good Recommendation. "I have noticed that the sale on Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets is almost invariably to those who have once used them,"' says Mr. J. H. Webea, a prominent druggist of Cascade, Iowa. What better recommendation could any medicine have than for people to call for it when again in need of such aremedy? Try them when you feel dull after l' _i ~ J eauiJg, wjueu yuu wave a uau tame iu your mouth, feel bilious, have no appetite or when troubled with constipation, and you are certain to be delighted with the prompt relief which they afford.

Old Maids in Heaven. According to one of Miss Wilkins' characters in "The Portion of Labor, the punishment meted out to thos who have been too much married i that they shall hereafter be doomei to celibacy.
