NEWS AND HERALD WINNSBORO, S. C. . FRANK FOOSHEI Editor and Proprietor. PUBL1SHED WEEKLY TERMS, IN ADVANCE: One Year.................... Six Month.......................... .75 Wednesday, June 27, 1906. Senator Tillman is so thor orough a democrat that he is go ing to increase the opportunities for the enlightenment of the peo ple on public questions by ar ranging special campaign meet ings for the glorification of him self and the defense of his child. Broad platform this. If the town council is going to license the pool room, there should at least be an age limit. This thing of allowing boys of 10 to 15 years of age to visit this place should be stopped by the authoaities at once. Justice to the boys demands that this be done. This is the time for getting busy with cleaning up back yards, lots and premises, so as to prevent being eaten up by the mosquitoes later in the summer. Drain off all pools of water, and remove all old tin cans and other rubbish, anything and everything that will tend to develop mos quitoes or disease germs. The board of health can get in some good work for the town now by seeing that these necessary sani tary provisions are put into effect. The Lancaster Cotton Associa tion is- without a presid ent or secretary, these officers having resigned to enter politics, Presi dent Strait for Congress and Secretary Jones, for the legisla ture. Fairfields association is not likely to suffer the loss of its officers in this way, as there is very little probability of Presi dent Cathcart's going into politics and as for the secretary we feel fully warranted in saying that, if he does ever enter the political field at any time, it will certainly not be this summer. George McDuffie Estes. The subject of this notice, Geo. McD. Estes, was born near Cross Keys, in Union county, about sikty-two years ago, and passed quietly away on the 18th of June, 1906, at the home of his sister, Mrs. W. J. Keller, being at that time her only surviving brother, and also the third brother she has lost within the year; R. Thomas Estes, who was a gallant soldier in the late Capt. James P. Macfle's company of cavalry, and well known to many of Fairfield's S old veterans, was the first to go, then Andrew Estes followed soon after. McD. Estes was a Confederate vesteran, a brave, quiet man, was a member of the 18th South Car olina regiment. He was in ranks with his company at the explo sion of Grant's mine at Peters burg, Va., and was covered up with the immense volume of earth thrown out. but was rescued with out having sustained any very serious injury. After the war he retired to the quiet walks of life as a farmer. About four years ago he had a severe stroke of paralysis from which he never recovered and which 'was the im mediate cause oi his death. He was ever true to his State and her calls to duty, never flinch ing from nor failing to perform his full part whenever called upon. He was a member of Padgett's Creek Baptist church, near Cross Keys, and a consistent Christian. He spent most of his time during the past year with his only sister, Mrs. W. J. Keller, his wife having died about eight years ago, leav * ing him with five daughters and two sons to care for. ~"'- His remains were carried to Padgett's Creek church cemetery and laid away to rest till the final resurrection, many of his rela tives and friends being present to attest their esteem and sorrow for the death of the gallant soldier, the upright citizen, the true friend, the loving father and brother, and the patient Chris tian, who suffered so long and never murmured agains~t Him un der whose rod he suffered.' The sympathy of the entire community is extended to Mrs. Keller in; her triple bereavement in so short a time, and to the children of the deceased. K. Jenkinsville Jottings.

If you had all the wealth of Rocke feller, the Standard Oil magnate, you could not buy a better medicine for bowel complaints than Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. The most eminent physician can not prescribe a better preparation for colic and diarrhoea, both for children and adults. The uniform success of this remedy has shown it to be superior to all others. It never fails, and when reduced with water and sweetened, is pleasant to take. Every family should be supplied with it. Sold by Obear Drug Co. and all medicine dealers. In and Around Blackstack.

It Is Dangerous to Neglect a Cold, How otten do we hear it remarked: "It's only a cold," and a few days at er learn that the man is on his back with pneumonia. This is of such 3ommon occurrence that a cold, how wer slight, should not be disregarded. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy coun iter ets any tendency of a cold to result in menumonia, and has gained its great xpularity and extensive sale by its prompt curse of this most common diment. It always cures and is leasant to take. For sale by Obear hnug o. anr1 all mardircine daleas Permanent vs. Prominent. Mr. T. C. Leitner has called >ur attention to the fact that in :he publication of his card last week, that there was a serious error in putting it prominent im provements, when the word that lie phoned in was permanent. His platform is not so much the. andertaking of great or prominent improvements, but that of maki ng all work of a permanent nature. The correction is duly made. Fliss Douglas Goes to Brazil.

Growing by t4e wayside you will of ten see that stately, spiny looking plant, the teazel, but I wonder low many know that It has helped to fir:ish many a piece of cloth they wear. We are apt to think of a tool as something of man's make, yet hero is one of nature's own, and nothing 3as ever been manufactured to successful ly take its place. For ages the te.-zel has been used for fulling cloth-thaat Is, raising the "nap"-and the 'maau facturers refer to "nap goods" thus treated as "gigged." When ripe, the dried spike heads are gathered, packed carefully in bundles and shipped in all directions to facto ries. The variety mostly used ha -ve the extreme end of the spikes hooked or curved backward. This is called "fullers' teazel." These heads form a sort of brush and are attached to a wheel or cylinder which revolves against the surface of the clpth, rnd these curved spikes catch paTt of the threads and pull them up, making a fuzzy nap. This is trimmed down und leaves that soft, velvety finish to the cloth. The spikes have strength enough and elasticity, but when they come in contact with a rough place In the cloth they break and so avoid tearing the mnaterial. Try as they may, no one aas ever been able to invent a tool possess ing all of these qualities, so the ter.zel stands unrivaled for that use. T.he plant as we see it growing wild lo-ks perhaps at first glance somewhat like a thistle, but it really has a digtity and character all its own. The heads In flower are covered with a fluffy down, lavender or white, and as the blossoms drop spikes appear u 'l lat er it fairly bristles. The leaves, point ed and spiked, shooting out. each side of the stem, meet at the base and form a little basin In which is usually wva ter. So we have the name of the plant from the Greek "dipsacus," meaning thirsty, and many other fanciful oi-es, such as Venus' cup, Venus' bath, wood or church brooms, gypsy combs, cloth ter's brush, etc.-St. Nicholas. ODDITIES, Bees never store up honey where It is light The moth has a fur jacket and the butterfly none. A squirrel comes down a tree head first and a cat tall first Leaves will attract dew when boards, sticks and stones will not. Corn on the ear ia never found with an uneven number of rows. The dragon fly can devour Its own body and the head still live. A horsefly will live for hours after the head has been pinched off. Fish, flies and caterpillars may be frozen solid and still retain life. A horse always gets up fore parts first and a cow directly the opposite. Some fies thrust their eggs Into the bodies of' caterpillars, but always in such parts of the body that when the larvae are feeding on the flesh of dihe foster parent they will not eat into sny vital part Pun. on People's NJames. A little while ago a popular form of social amusement was found In p:In ning on people's names-"Why did So and-so?" "Because Such-and-suc2." The game ran riot for a time, snd echoes of It are still heard In the outer suburbs. Before those echoes die a'nay a correspondent suggests that we should put It on record that the o:ig Inator of the fashion was no less ncta ble a person than the Quaker poet, Tohn Greenleaf Whittier. On an a-:ti slavery lecturer named 'Mary Gr-ew, visiting Boston In 1871, WhIttier wrote a poem, "How Mary Grew," each stan za ending on a variation of the pun The world were safe if but a few: Could grow in grace as Mary Grew. -London Chronicle. Not In Any County. The city of St. Louis is not in sny county. It is an independent munici pality equipped with all the machinery of county and city government. It has its own circuit and criminal courts. its own grand jury, jail, etc. The cir cuit attorney Is the prosecuting officer of St Louis. Until 1876 St. Louis was the county seat of St Louis county, but in that year the city was comple e ly separated from the county, so titatt it is now as independent subdivision of the state. Clayton, a few miles w -st of the city, is now the courthouse town of St. Louis county.-St. Louis Repub lic. -The Jersey Cow. The Jersey cow Is a small anim~al, and tirerbfore her maintenance rat on is small, while a relatively large part of her food goes to profit She is- a persistent milker, often a perpetlal milker, and ordinarily not dry more than six or eight weeks In a year. She. has an extremely long period of use fulness In the dairy. Five years cover the profitable work of the average cw. The Jersey produces until fifteen years old. Many are profitable when eighteen to twenty-one years of age.-Farmer. The Other Way. "Aren't you afraid that horse will run away with somebody?" "Friend," said Broncho Bob, "it ain't nothin' in Crimson gulch for a hoss to run away with a man. It's wher- a man tries to run away with a hoss that there's danger." - Washington Star. Sorrow of It.
