He must let the people know through the columns of his home paper that he has the goods they waut, and that his prices are attractive. People have gotten oat of the habit of going to one store all the time, and the man who hustles for the trade is the one' who gets there. * * * The Dewey presidential boom has died a-borning, killed en foetus," as it were, by the doughty old admiral himself. This is what he says to nr?A of these hvsterioftl hnnm floaters. instances as this will cause them to change their minds. An up-to-date business man and wide-awake advertiser not only builds np a fine trade by advertising, bat he is the means of bringing people to town who otherwise would not come. *** That Throbbing Headache Would quickly leave you, if you used Dr. Kings Life Pills.

Sold by Thos Black and Bamberg Pharmacy, It is as sensible a yarn as ever a sailor-man spun: ?4I have no political ambition whatever, and won't allow my name to be used as a candidate under any possible circumstances." "Not even to save the country?" suggested the*tempter. "Not even on the pretense of saving the country," said Dewey, "because the saving of the country does not depend on'auy one man. If this country gets so poor in presidential material as that, it will be in a very bad way." \ * * * The "war of ink" between the dispensary people, in and out 9f office, is ended, for which the gods be praised. Peace, the white-winged, does not hover over the rival camps to any alarming extent, however. The warring forces have simply drawn off. and are evein or each other * J cy ~ " with that sort of suppressed ferocity which one may see in the eyes of parted bulldogs. Had it not been for the opposition of certain newspapers to the dispensary, the public would never have been regaled with * x the nauseating dirty-linen laundrying that this disgusting dispute has paraded. .Altogether the mother nest of our commonweal rum shop seems to have been a pretty foul one, and this stirring up has by no man. ner of means purified it * * *. Agitation of a question often does good. Lastjyear] Bamberg county did not receive any portion of the dispensary fncd, but gets a little over $300 this year. The question was agitated during the last campaign.?Denmark Times. Our brother of The Times was himself a candidate for County SuDerinlendent of Education last vear. and the '^agitation" to which he refers was certain promises made by him on the hustings that if elected he would "guarantee that Bamberg county would get $5,000 from the dispensary fund." Does he mean to infer that these wild ante-election aporings?which did not influence sufficient votes to elect him to the office he coveted?had such a potent influence on the powers that be in Columbia, that now, after a lapse of over a year, they wring three hundred and odd hard, cold American dollars?not counting the centimes?from the grudgingly given np dispensary hoard? We pause for an answer. * * * Advertising pays, indeed it does. Mr. J. A. Spann, after some earnest ~ SOlicnaSoiTdircu?' part^coucluded to test Tee Herald as an adver\ Using medium, and advertised a special sale for last Monday, November 6. The advertisement was not set in large display type, nor was it a large acL The type used was small, and the display rather crow ded. Mr. Spann tells ns he sold more goods last Monday than any day since he opened. His store was erowded all day long, and, although extra help was employed, not near all the customers could be served. The other stores in town were not overrun with customers, aud we saw salesmen in several stores idle several times during the day, while at Spann's it was impossible to serve ^ the customers. Some of the merchants of Bamberg do not believe in advertising, bat we think a few such A Frightful Blunder Will often cause a horrible Burn, Scald, (ut or Bruise.

Fitting School Dots. nil t* fvQino X liC J^l'l svii Hiiu laiiiuuny u?iuo the youth of our country in obedience and fidelity, as well as in intelligence and industry, is accomplishing a great work for his country. The cardinal virtue of good citizenship is obedience. Without this there cau be but little peace or prosperity. Where laws are disrespected and disregarded there is nothing but strife and turmoil; but when obedience to law is the guide of life and action, peace reigns and every one is allowed to follow the arts and industries according to his own purpose. Progress is thus possible. Add to obedience the spirit of fidelity, and you have two elements in character which must count greatly in human progress. Let no teacher esteem lightly the task of training children in these two virtues. Such are the true patriots, the true benefactors to the nation. Men often speak lightly of certain laws and their obedience to them. Such words, falling upon the ears of children, would lead them to believe that it is a small matter to obey or disobey, as may suit one's convenience. In this they may sow the seeds of disobedience to law and constituted authority. Let no teacher speak thus; but by word and act impress the majesty of the law upon the youth of our land. To do this it is not necessary to insist upon blind and dumb acquiescence in bad laws. In our country there is a remedy for this. By voice, and pen, and vote, such laws can Ik repealed. This shows the necessity for education, as the better educated we are the more effectively can we work for the repeal of such laws, and for substituting wholesome lawf in their stead.
