Boylston's yard came near being

children during her mother's absence,
aud was playing with the fire when
her clothing caught on fire. The back
of her dr86s caught and when the
other people in the yard reached her
her clothes were almost burnt off. A
doctor was called in and it was found
that the burns, thongh very painful,
were not seriens.

have undertaken a|big task and one
that involves a great deal of work,
and they are working very hard to
get things ready and to have them as
nice as ppisible.
?Tiie decision ol the raiirovi com;
?auy to erect a new depot upen their

magnificent old oaks standing npon the
j lot. Although these old trees are very

; the railroad company's land. This
! trea is so large that it takd3 up a great
deal of space and consequently has to
be aprooted. Although every one
realises that it is uteess&ry, yet it
seems a great pity to hare to destroy
the life of such a grand old tree that
kas stood for so many years. It is a
labor to nproot sueh a huge tree, and
it will take several days to uproot it.

CH- -XBR'S LOSS IS WINNSBOBO'S
GATX.
Dr. Samuel Lindsay has entwined
| himself around oir hurts since his
childhood, and we art loath to give
him up. We consider him one of our
lest young men. He graduated at the
Bellevue Hospital Medical College of
of New York and located here about
a year rgo. Qe has made rapid strides
in his profession beth as a practitioner
and surgeon. He soon built up quite
a good practice here. Chester's less
is certainly Winnsboro's gain. Winnsboro
may congratulate herself on getI
ting one of Chester's most enterprii
| ing sons.
j Dr. Lindsay is not only a doctor,
bnt he is a christian and gentleman in
j every sense of tbe word. He is as
gentle and sympathetic at a woman
| in the rick room. I understand Rev.
C. E. McDonald met him at the train
and took him in charge. Mr. McDouj
aid is doing * gaud werk in the community
by giving kit influence and
support to such a yonnd man as Dr.
j Lindsay. He is not only doing Dr.
( Lindsay good, but he ;is advanciug his
I Master's cause.
May the Lord bless Dr. Lindsay in
hisjgadopted home and may be soon
build up a fine practice is the sincere
wish of many of hi9frionds.

THEY CAXTT HELP it.
| JMr. Editor: It has loDg been an ani
solved problem why women'* tongues
*'wag so." Yoar corrasDOudent has
often sat quietly and wondered why
this organ of femininity wai to energetically
restles?. Having made the
j discovery, like NikoU Tesla, I rush
I into print to give the male portion of
.humanity tbe benefir of the infaraation
I have. The explanation is found
in tbe Oriental version of the creation
of Mother Eve a* set forth i* the following
excerpt:
According to this story, which, in a
sJjchtlv different form, ia current
throughout Asia and ibe greater part
of Africa, Allah, while sewing np the
fide of Adam, after removing the rib
which was to serve as the basis for the
construction of Eve, had laid it down
by Hi? side on the grass. A hungry
jellow dog happened along, and catching
sight of the rib seized it and
bolted. Allah started in hoi pursuit,
and would have recovered the bone
had not the tail of the dog given awav,
and remained io His hand jnet as E?
managed to clutch hold of it. Xbank6
to the fres>h headway which the cur
tons ootainta, u wae aoie to oscape
and to swallow the rib before being
I once more caught. UnwilliDg to deiprive
Adam ot another hone, Allah
5 re*ol?ed to use tbe dog's tail in lieu of
Gnmnlative Evidence i
A proof of merit in any article is the :
amount of free advertising it receives, i
The universal success of Pabst Malt I

due to one person's telling another of

have given it the immense popularity it
has attained. It is indorsed by thou*

THE OLD CAMDEN ROAD.
Mr. Editor: We noticed in one of
your recent issue? an article suggesting
the re*opening of the old load
from Harrison X Rtads to Winnsb?ro.
We heartily coacur with Fairfieid
as to the advantages that would
accrue, both to Winnsboro and the
country through which the road runs,
by having it re-opened. The country
traversed by this road, or at least the
greater portion of it, is apparently deserted.
It looks like a good farming
coantry too. Its deserted appearance
is undoubtedly due to the miserabie
condition of the road. With a good
rond through this section of the
co'inty, it would soon -develop, and in
all probability become one of the
most prosperous sactions of the
county; and of course along with this
prosperity would come an increase of
trade, which would certainly redowned
to Winnaborof? benefit. Besides the
regions advanced already for the
op ining ?f this road, there is another.
LoDgtownians, and people frcm the
south-eastern part of Jbe county in
general, would be greatly benefited
tkereby. Io going to Winnsboro by
private conveyance they have to go
by Ridgeway. which is eighteen miles,
wfcercas if tbia road was open it]
wculd be only twelve miles. By all,
means let us have this road worked,;
pw;itin excellent 3xr then .we'll be
in 'ilose touch witb oar friends the
"Boro."

days since, and ndrd wi'h feeling?
of gratification and pride tl.c * g.-s of
prepress so evideut, there. Tb* factor)',
the new buildings .goijig op
?.nr1 in t/.wn era to sh'-v that
Wiunsboro has joined in ;hfe m.trch of
progress. Now the next best thing
for the material advancement of tbe{
business interests of Winnaboro 13 to
open this road. "We hope that the
Editor #f The News ahd Hekald and
the business men of Winnsboro will
interest themselves in this matter.
Lerftewniaas too should interest
themselves in this matter, as it would
prove of untold beneflt t? tbem also.
Mr. Editor, pardon na if we have
trespassed too much upon yoar invaluable
celnmn8.. We were prompted
through a desire for the material advancement
of our county, wbick we
