With the pros ent . rices the farmers have the host opportunity to become indipendent that they have ever had before. Thoycna't bocome so, however, by getting a high price ror cotton and paying high prices for what they eat. ?Messrs Craig Bros, have done a good thing when they put in their 5 and 10 cent counters. Hero can be found many articles at a bargain and they are down where the purchaser can see them. Those counters are well-stocked and replete and the goods are on display and the customer sees what ho wants but might otherwise fail to call for. Call in and take a look at their line of goods. ?"Patronize House Industries." This is a pretty good slogan for any community, but it is not always heeded. For instance: A good many of our people send off for patent nostrums that ?? <? put up simply to sell, when they could get drugs of merit at the local drug stores. In this connection we think of nostrums for weak back and kidneys. Did you know that there was a specific back and kiflnftV viinindv nut nn in T>ir.lr J pwv V4 |/ 111 X I^rvens? The Pickens Drug Co. manufactures a pill guarnteed to do the kidneys good, to relieve backache, and clear up the urinary secretions' and sell them under a guarnteo or your money back. Could any proposition be fairer! Step in and talk to Dr. Hallum about these pills and their wonderful cures. Ho has plenty of testimoials to show what they have done and can do. ?Last Sunday a runner came i-^ nt ~ CL L 1 CI 1 IV 11 ix? x ioivoiim ii: wr nit; nnenir suiting that there was trouble, and a heapof It, over on J.

Olio of tbo saddest deaths that has occurrod in Pickens wdh that of Mrs. llattio Harris, the beloved wifo of oar fellow-townsman, John P. Marin, which sad ovent occurred at the home of hor husband on last Saturday morning, tbo 19tb instant, after an illness of only a fow days' duration, the immediate causo of her demise being pneumonia. One week ago, last Sunday, she wan at hor accustomed place teaching her Sunday School elnss f.t the Pickens Methodist Church ; on Wednesday sho took her bod; on Sanday she was carried to tho silent, city of the dead, thoro to await, tho call of tho Rosurrec tion to meet her class. Sho has gono to that bynrno from whence no traveller returns and her going was like tho fallint; asloop of tho tired child. Sho died as sho had lived. Sho is survivod by her husband anil ono Hon, her mother, Mrs. M. J. liar ris, and the following brothers anil sisters: T. I)' Haris of Spnrtanbnnr J. D. Harris, of Greenville countv: Mrs. O 'I. Johnson' of Ensloy ; Mth. i' W.A. Cason, of Allmnv Ga. ; Mrs, 1 ? Fowler, of Fountain Inn, 8. C. ; Mrs. Mamie Moon and Mrs. Annie Turner, of Greenville. A fow short years ago hIio was happily married to Mr. .Jo n IV. Harris, of Rutherfoidtown, N. U., and of this union 0110 son was horn. Shortly after marriage thoy locatod J in Pickens, where Mrs. Harris, by hor winning ways, loyalty to her friends and Christian graces endeared horself to all with whom she ciunr in contact. Sho was of an affectionate disposition bright and winning in her ways, so that ^friendship's circlo was to hor a largo one. Indeed it may be da id of her that 'none knew her but to love hor." Hor sweet faco made sunshino in shady places. If strangers felt tin; charm of her raro courtesy and joy oas, Bunny temperament, how much more so, the motuber of hor own household upon whom sho lavished all the sweot earnestness and careful oultnro of hor mind and nature. Strong and pottnc was tho influence of this loving heart which gave of its gifts so generously. Hor life was gentle, but like tho still waters it was deep. Sho was n faithful member of tho Pi '.kens Methodist Church. fc>ho was not only faithful to her church, but just as faithful! in believing that it was hor duty ns a Chistian to do tlio will of hor Master at all times. She was always rend\ to lund a helping hand in tho time | of ncod ?both in acts of kindness nnd in words. In this sad dentil. much has boon taken from the husband and little Hon, from the lonely mother and sorowing brothers and sistrs and tho lnrgeeir elo of relatives and friends; sweet ties have been severed bnt much has been left. The Christain's hope and fadeless memories are still theirs Let us if possible, gather up the clonionts of tho life of tho departed ' 0110. and weave of them a picture for mo wniis or momory. The book of lifo was opened and a new nam : was written therein by the hand of love. Soon would tho unfolding beauties of springtime have charmed her coining. Todny, the Etornnl Springtime, with its everlasting glories, belongs to our sister. Her lifo was n rare jewel, her spirit as gold refined in the lire, ready for heaven. These flowers are emblems of our love, but (5od hath bid.Ion her welcome to that mansion which He himself has prepared, whore aio tho soiil'h of the redeemed.

Then also may wo behold tho heavenly mansion which perhaps she was called thither, thus early, lo help prepare for her loved ones. (rone from our sight! but because lifo nnd love are stronger than death she is ours still. She is still tho mother of tho dear little son upon whom sho doted with such clinging fondness, and companion of him who mourns earth's greatest loss, and may sho not by this very transition wield over them a stronger force for (rood noss and truth than before.
