?AMKPM~D COUNTY NRWS TOLD BY CORRESPONDENTS (Contnaeed frm page one) The following verses ar so appli cable to the case, I quote them here: Farewell, Big Boy, farewell, 'Twas painful. to my heart To see thy chances of escape Was that old steer and cart. Methinks I see thee now, With axle-trees all broke, And wheels with nary hub at all And hubs with nary spoke. But though the mud is deep, Thy wits will never fail; That faithful steer will pull thee out If he don't pull out his tail. I am receiving so many nice polite '>uns these days from vice accommo dating and courteous creditors, and I feel that it would be impolite for me not to acknowledge receipt of them, and as I can not afford postage to reply to all personally, I ask space in your valuable paper to thank each and every one of them for what they have done for me. And I hope that they may live long and continue their' good deeds to myself and others; and, in the language of the immortal Em met, "Let no man write my epitaph -let not my epitaph be written until they are paid."

On the Clemson team were three men from Fairfield county, who play ed the entire game, Charlie Robinson, Dutch Tennant, and Harvey. It can be said of Charlie that he won the game by his drop kick in the last few minutes of the fourth quarter. This former Mount Zion star tried one kick but it was blocked and the ball was recovered by him, and on the next attempt he placed the ball squarely between the bars for the only score of the game. He not only kicked this drop kick, but he punt ed as well if not better than Snipes, the Carolina punter, during the whole game. He also made several pretty tackles during the game. Tennant, the husky guard, played an unusually good game. He was right there when it came to breaking up line plunges. He seemed to have put "pep" in the team as he was seen sev eral times to slap the players on the back and also talk to them. Harvey, the young fellow who hails from Woodward, played a hard and steady game. He is one of the best players on the Tiger team and can stand a lot of punishment, as he show ed in this game. On the sidelines was another old Mount Zion star, who was ready and rearing to get in the game, and that was Andrew Cathcart, better known as "Gilly". From all reports it seems that "Gilly" will be a regular next year. Winnsboro and Fairfield are proud of these sons and they will be watched with interest in the remaining games of their college career.

It is doubtful if there has ever -been a medicine endorsed by so many ministers of the Gospel as has Tan lac. Indeed, there is scarcely a faith, creed or denomfation, in all the land in which one, or more, of the clergy men has not publicly expressed their indebtedness to the Premier Prepar ation for the benefits they have de rived from its use. One of the latest to speak out in this connection is Rev. B. M. Bridges, a widely known and beloved Baptist preacher, residing at Mooresboro, N. C., whose statement follows: "Tanlac has given me a good ap petite, toned up my system and re newed my strength in such a grati fying way that I am glad to recom nend it to anyone who is in a run down condition. For ten years past I have had such a severe case of in digestion that I could not find any thing to eat that agreed with me. Finally I became very nervous and could get but very little sleep or rest. "It seems that I took nearly ev erything to get myself right, but nothing helped me until I ran across Tanlap. My nperves-are so much bet ter now thai my sleep is sound and refreshing. rI enjoy my meals and have also g4ined weight. I can say from nexpernce .that Tanlac "is a sple ehcine and tonic, for it has up wonderfully." T - Id by all good druggists. NOTI CREDITORS OF AP A PL FOR DISCHARGE.
