The residence of Mr. D Henry Wheeler, near the line of Newberry ind Lexington, was destroyed by fire in Saturday about 11 o'clock a. m., pith considerable of its contents. The ire caught on the roof and had made uch headway when detected that all ififorts to save it were futile. It was >artly insured, but the loss is very leavy on Mr. Wheeler. We can ruly sympathize with him, as it cerainly is a trying ordeal to any one osing their home. We have had levere experience along this line, over vhich one never recovers. A Painful Accident. iii?i a ~? ~ vu iaqb oaiuiuny biioiuuju uicu, he thirteen-year-old daughter of Mr. ind Mrs. S. R. Smith, was severely, hough Dot fatally burned. While he was alone in the kitchen her slothing caught fir<; she ran toward ler mother who met her in the yard. Umost all her clothing was burned iff and her lower limbs and hands vere painfully burned. Her life was laved only by the heroic effjrts cf ler mother and sisters, whose hands ?ere badly burned. Dr. Kneece, of PelioD, is treating the burns, and the jafcienfc is doing extremely well. Cleo, by her gentle disposition, has von love and esteem from those who mow her, and they do sincerely symjathize with her in this intense sufering. Apljom is especially cast >ver Smith Branch school, of which ihe was a faithful, pains taking pupil. W. D. QUICK. Lexington, S. C., JIST1LLER and DEALER in TURPENTINE.

Rjscop Albert Eiward, youngest cbild of E'isha and Adeliade Calk, was born October 18, 188-1. died January 31, 1906, age 21 years, 3 mon'hs aDd 12 days Leaving a father, mother, two sisters and two brothers to mourn his loss. Our loss is his eternal gsin. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. G. Graichen in the home, in the presence of a mournful and sympathetic congregation. The sermon was bas^d on Heb 12:6. The interment took place in the family cemetery. The gloom of our sadness is lightened by the thought of his sweet resignation iD his suffering and the joy of triumph through tne Cnrisfc. Let us be patient! Th \se severe afflictions Not from the ground arise, But of ten times celestial benedictions Assume this dark disguise. We see but dimly through the mists and vapors; Amid these earthly damps Wiiat seem to us but sad, funeral tapers May be heaven's distant lamps. There is no death! What seems so is transition; This life of mortal breath Is but the suburb of the life elysian, Whose portal we call death. G. t I iTrnAnv nni innrnw i? i i Lnnn i unuuuLn T , Froude passed seven years in collecting materials and writing his "History of England.'' Nearly five years of Irring's time w?re consumed in writing "The Life of George Washington." Gibbon devoted over twenty years of his life to the labor of reading for and writing the "Decline and Fall." Dickens says in the introduction to "David Copperfield" that he spent two years in the composition of that novel. Bancroft devoted nearly thirty years to his "History of the United States," which is not a history of the country at all, since it ends where the history of the country properly begins. Cruden labored nineteen years on his Concordance to the Bible and immediately after its publication was sent to a lunatic asylum. He never fully recovered from the mental disease brought on by this gigantic undertaking. What You Don't Hear. You hear something like this everyday in the week: "Ten years ago he couldn't get credit for a suit of clothe:*. Now he can write his obeck for $b0,000." But when did anybody hear anything like this? "Ten years ago he was thoughtless and regardless of his fellow men and caml for nobody but himself. Now he is kind and gentle and is a constant encouragement to all who desire to enlarge their faith in human nature."?Kansas City Star. OPENING BOOKS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
