" "Yes, !'U be ready when yon come.** Women living ondfarms and in rural districts haven't time to seek and enjoy social pleasures. Distances are too great ? the work is too urgent. Women grow lonesome and listless when robbed of these pleasures. The Rural Telephone solves the problem. It enables women to talk with neigh bors and rriends and keep alive to the news of the day. Our free booklet tells how you can have a telephone in vour home at small cost. Women living in the country should write for it.

The American Association not on ly furnishes new material for the big leagues, the American and Na tional, bub It also makes over all player* for the leading organization*! Twenty-five ex-members of the Nap club are now being put through the "make-over" process.. Prominent among this number are Hid Smith, catcher, aud Jiiil Much- 1 mau, outfielder, both members of the Columbus Senators, leaders in the race for the pennant. Smith uud llinchman are playing in whirlwind fashion for the A. A. pace makers. They have all season. Big league scouts have been watch ing their performances for many weeks. The talent picku them to advance Into (he select class in 1913, if not during the clone o t the 1912 season. Smith In a, great deal more value than uny number of catchers in the mujor leagues, being probably su-? perior now to any backstop that Che Cleveland club has. He has partic ipated in most every gain** Cplum I)uh ban played. Smith Bet out to catch every game of the souson, but after working in sixty odd game* in succession ,wuh forced to drop out of oue of them on account of Hlckneaa. llinchman has been hitting and doing all the rest of hit* work at* well aa ever. Probably his throw ing is improved. Hill is the lead ing Hlugger of the A. A. and if) giving Chqrlie Carr and Stansbury, alao Ex-Naps, a stirring battle for batting honors. llinchman also ranku with the leading run getters of the 'Association. Smith 1b hitting In excess of ? 300 In 89 games. His fielding has also been brilliant. : The stellar work of these two placers, probably more than anything else, is respon sible for Columbus's present posi tion in the bunting struggle. Smith was a member ? of the Nap catching staff last year. He fail ed to display the class expected and was turned back to the minors. The Naps secured Smith ? with Atlanta. Smith 1m a heady catcher: He uses good judgment in handling his pitchera, and the Senator hurl ers owe a whole lot to his ability to make selections. REMHERT NEWS NOTK8. Rembert, 8. C., July 30. ? Not In many years have the farmers had such adverse seasons to make a crop. For three weeks lately noth ing was done on the farms on ac count of the rains, and now when the crops should have been laid by they have got to be worked. With a drought now the yield will be cut heavy. The man that expects a big crop of cotton will have to go to another country for he will not find it here. We have some gocrtl corn safe and young corn will make If the army worm don't eat it up. Peaches all rotted from rain or blight. The health of our section is very good. The protracted meeting at Pis gah was postponed last week ow ing to . the press of farm work. Mr. Tolar, of Sumter, came and preached two very able 8eermon?. Mrs. T. L. Cole who went to the mountains has returned. Rev. Mr. Cole is in Orangeburg , this week aiding in a meeting. He win be ocqupied a month in meet ings. Rev. Mr. Hatfield is carrying on a meeting at New Hope qhurch this week. The county campaign meeting will be held here in August. Several new buildings are going up and some stores will be built for the fall trade. So our town is increasing. A darkey tried to commit suicide by taking laudanum for no aparent cause. " Guess he thinks it fashion able. _ Judging from those who say they are going to Camden on the 5th Inst., the meeting will be a farge one. , The court house will never hold them. Guess you will give us Hampton Park, but Camden always measures up to full measure in public things. ? Politics are much divided on the governor's race. The governor in ?the lead, with McLaurin for State treasurer in this section. Several of our folks will go to the mountains and other plases as soon as they can get off. The heat has been so intense lately that peo ple are fagged out and need a rest. Keep cool, whether you are or not and it will be best for all, mental ly and physically.
