Parmer Boys.
Tdis Is ttae time of the year when we 6ee Id
the newspapers lectures on the beauties of
the farmer's life aDd the dangers of town life,
to which Is added an unlimited amount of
advice to the boys to stay on the farm.
" t Joseph E. Brown of Georgia was a farmer
boy. Ue said late in Ule, If he had stayed on
the farm he might have lived hard and owned
a lew hundred acres of land. As our people
... .. -a farm Hft WeDt
know, De aian i siKj ul: mc
Er- -} to town, became Governor of the State, and I
talked big to Jeff Davis ilurlng the war. lie
was United States Senator. For fortv yearn
be waaa factor In all that interested Georgia.
He died a millionaire. If a boy has nothing
in him, except brawn and;slnew, he might
stay on the farm, bat If he has the manhood,
i ' the ability and the executive qualities he bad
better go to a field of larger possibilities thau
the farm.
Town brought up boys do not always an||*
swer the demand for men of mark. Take
<" Abbeville, for instance: Since the foundation
of tbe town, more than a hundred years
?ago, tbere have been many boys born within
its limits. You can count on tbe fingers ol
. - one band, the names of tbe town born boysi
who are now factors In the affairs of the city. I

KV* are not native born citizens. The physicians
L- t were not born here. None of the lawyers at
Efc/'tbls bar were born In town. The two Judge*
' now living in the town were born elsewhere.
The editors and owners of the printing office*
fv moved to town alter reacblDg the years of
maturiiy. Our cotton buyers came from the
jr|p oountry, The president of the cotton mill
u ' came from the country. The builders of the
Irfrj furniture factory, with a Blngle exception,
V were not natives of the town. None of the
officers' in either of our three bank? were borjj
In Abbeville. A majority of our teachers are
ril:,') from otber seotlons. Our jewelers came to
*"?, town after reaching the years of m&turlty
and the age In which they might judge for
themselves. Very few of the couniy officers
JV;; were born In town, and Dor e of our preachers
- were born amongst us.
If all theBe men had been required to rejg.V^main
on the farm, where would the town ol
K . Abbeville be now ? What has become of the
.town boys, any way ? Their places buve beeD
t " taken by the country boys. Our town boys
i-,;v Have gone abroad and have forged their way
to the front* In other localities. Among the
number we would mention :
Lewis W. Parker of Greenville is a well

v' The Presbyterian General Assembly lu
Greenville last week, bad tbe trial of a charge
of heresy against Rev. Caldwell of Fort
Worth, Texas.
"Mr. Caldwell's belief is practically this:
He doeR not accept tbe Mosaic authorship ol
the Pentateuch. He does not believe In tin
miraculous element In tbe Old Testament.
He does not believe In the hls'orlc accuracy
of the earlier chapters of Genesis. Lastly, be
believes that Christ died for man, not as a pe
rial substitute instead of man, but simply to'
man."
Ha was not questioned on tbe essentials ol
salvation, nor was he examined on tbat purity
of life the teaching of which Is the prl^
mary object of the Christian religion. By
, ? one vote be wad sustained.
If the Abbeville Literary Society had been
before the General Assembly members of tbat
organization might bave been excommunlvvh?n
the subject of miracles was dls
cu??ed, If there wa9 a man, except the essay- >
1st who believed In the miracles we have for- 1
gotten the exception. As far as we now recollect
the members were of one mind on that i
& "'I' subject. 1
The Kershaw Dinitcusury.

More or less noise has beeD raised because i
y the State board of control has granted that
part of the town of Kershaw, which lies in '
Lancaster, the privilege of establishing a dlspensary.
The people of Kershaw bad voted
the dlspensnry out of that county. Now. let
the people of Lancaster vote it out?if they
rf/v n?? want It. Nothing "vrong about that.
It Is not true that the State board of control

granting the petition of Lancaster people,
they wereoomplylng with their request. Not
forcing anything on them. Only tbls, and
nothing more.

The Trl-StatfllOdd Fellow is a good paper,

.-A,
I? ilu' Divine Tall Lnckins; ?
Tbe Bishops In their address at iSirmlDg-l
mtiighuiu lamented the fact that few ynuua !
men wtreeuleriug tbe ministry. Ai the General
Assembly hi Uietnvllle, Dr. H. L. Smitb,
president of Davidson College, spoke tor nearly
au hour on tbe scarcity of candidate* for
(be ministry. He said that there were 3 12tf
churches, and 728 of tbera were wlihout a
supply ol Huy kind. The old belief was that
men were dearly aud divinely called to
preach the gospel. What Is the matter with
the yot'ug.men ? Or has the divine call been
withheld lu these latter days? Or Is there
really * divine call extended to ministers
with more clearness aud empbatda than
comes lo men engaged in other professions
aud ca lings? Is ibe pulpit less remunerative
now than in former days? Is It not
vlewtd mainly from tbe commercial standpoint?
Wtieu meu enter tbe ministry they
are UMialiy called up higher by tbe better sbIary.
It Is very seldom that onestepBdowu
from a thousand dollar church lo one paying
five hundred dollars iu order that be might do
greatei good to a more needy parish. We believe
that other but>lue*s aud professions bold
out more attractions to young men than the
cburcb does; hence the scarcity ol caudldates
lor tbe ministry. The useless multiplication
of churches may accoun' In part for the laok
of preachers. A sma 1 town springs up.
There are peopleeuough loronecougregatlon.
In a spirit ol rivalry, not very Christian, every
denomination tnat has a dozen members
in said town, will build a bouse of worship.
The same condition prevails In som* of the
mill towns. But 'bis question Is xtlil unanswered:
"Are meu divinely called to the
ministry wi.ti more poweraud emphasis than
they are to the oltlce, the factory or the
plow?" Referred to Rev. C. C. Brown and
Lecturer Hugh Wllsou of Abbeville.?Carolina
Spartan.
"Lecturer Hugh Wilson," answering for
himself, 6ays that the above Is so nearly correct,
aud so nearly all there Is ol it, that be
has little or nothing to add. Any Idea Ibal
men are divinely called to the ministry mortthan
to other callings of usefalness is the
merest rot, which nobody believes and which
nobody In seriousness would ask anybody
else to believe. Young men who are born below
the sphere in which they are ambitious
to move, are governed by their Judgment as
to their own best Interests?if they are true
to themselves?not forgetting the ambition to
be uselul.
If they are ambitious to go Into a learned
profession, and feel conscious of their lack of
ability to practice law or to go Into srme of
the secular literary pursuits, you will notice
that they gravitate to tbe pulpit, some times
claiming that the Lord called them especially
into his service. There are of course many
able men la the pulpit, and able men are
needed there, but there are a great many of
the other sort In the ministry. They 6erve a
good purpose In filling places where men ol
ability could not afford to go.
There^are three great powers for good'
namely: The press, the school, the pulpit'
Where the personal standards are equal, they
come In the order In which they are named.
Supposing all to be equally able and equally
good, the fleld of the press Is largest and It
can and does accomplish more. The audience
of the press Is larger than that of the pulpit.
The words of the press are printed aud are
more lasting than those of the preacher who
too often speaks to listless ears. The teacher
Is more closely associated with the young,
while their minds are In the plastic state and
when their hearts are more directly susceptible
to good influences. The preacher has not
quite the opportunity of reaching tbe people
that Is vouchsafed to the press, which goes to
all men and to all homes and to all places of !
business. The three, working together, are a
great power for good which must be beneficially
felt by all.
JiiMiieeto 91r. Lyon,
Because Oi rumore, uuu cnucuto m
doing Id the management of tbe dispensary
the Legislature felt called upoD to appoint an
Investigating committee whose duty It
should be to ascertain facts and report the
Bame. [
In the matter of looking up evidence, subcommittees
were appointed and one of these
was composed of Messrs. Lyon aDd ChrlstlDson.
They entered upon this delicate and
disagreeable duty with no other object than
that of serving the State faithfully and effi
clently, while dealing fairly and impartially
with the citizen.
One of the most delicate and difficult ques- 1
tions that tbe committee has been called on (
to decide Is, where U the llDe of demarcation
between a man's private character, which ,
should be unassailable, and his official acts
for which be should be held accountable. ?
The citizen and the officer may deffer as to
tbe llDe of demarcation, and upon this differ- ,
ance of opinion troubles bave arisen. ^
In all that has been said and done the ,
sommittee should be given credit, throughjut
the Slate, tor honesty and zeal In the
Jlacharge of lie duty.
It whs Id this spirit tbat the committee Idvited
Senator Tlllmao to appear before It
Sitting as a court of inquiry as well as a court '
3f Judgment, It was but Justice to Senator
rillman tbat he be asked to appear. At no /
previous lime bad tbere been a legally cou
itltuttd committee before whom facts about i
Lbe dispensary during bis administration
jould be made known. It was an opportunl- '
:y for Senator Tillman to place upoo record i
:ne facts. *
ResponsibilltieR for the investigation of
Senator Tillman's connection with the dls- j
)ensary rests not with the sub committee 4
>ut with;those would be traducers of the sye.
em and of him in connection wltb it.
Long before the members of the sub comnlttee
entered public life, insinuations, if
lot direct charges, were made through tbe
tewspapers. It is safe to say tbat tbe mem. ^
>ers ol the committee did not believe tbem. }
Jr. Lyon hlmsell did not, but in the spirit of
aimers to Senator Tillman the opportunities
ollered to brand slanderous lmputatloDs .
or all time. It Is to be hoped that tbe malice J
?f his enemies will not go bebiDd the verdice
if the committee toagaiD bring upithose stall
ibarges, proven false.
Mr. Lyon has been zealous In discharging 4

The decision of the Supreme Court In tbe

which he comes.
Vlelcompd to Their Old Homo.
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Trowbridge, of Ander

wbile on their way to see relatives In North ]
Carolina. Mr. Trowbridge, for several years, ]

18S9.
He is a son of Mr. Langdon C. Haskell
whose home was in Abbeville Coun'y, from
which place be volunteered in the Confederate
service. Major Haskell Rpent the earlier
days of h.s career in Georgia. He was there
during the stirring days of factional fight In
South Carolina and be ha? bad no factional
affiliation*. He has served his state for four
years as legislator, where be Is known by ail
blR associates, as a prince of good felloes.
His splendid work as a legislator, and his
eminent fltneRs for military service specially
recommended bim to General Frost, tbe
present Adjutant and Inspector General
who appointed him assistant.
Having served as assistant most satisfactorily,
and bis chief declining another nomination.
Mr. Haskell naturaly desires and

"The Best Peoplp."
Sr. Julian Yates, formerly of Charleston,
writes to the Atlanta Georgian that it Is a
very great mistake to suppose that the '"beet
people In South Carolina are opposed to tbo
dispensary law." He areues that at the pres- i
en t time 1 he "best people" are engaged In a
great undertaking to save tbe concern.
Several newspapers In this state resent Mr. "
Yates's Insinuation and are equally certain
that "tbe best people" are arrayed on the
other side of tbe question.?Spartanburg
Journal.
The talk of "the best people" la on a par
wlttP"promlnent people" who dally commit
crimes against the peace and good order of
society. I
The Legislature, or those who use- such (
terms, should define the meaning of the .1
words so that we may know who are "tbe C
best people" and who are "prominent pec- 1
pie." I
* rat* ihot *?M\a hpfit. npnole" T
are those who think as we do. And that (
"prominent people" are prominent because
of the crimes which they commit. 1
Dr. Torrey, evangelist. 1? conducting revival
meetings in Atlanta, and Is attracting a
large attendance upon his exercises. A great
many have been "converted," some have been 1
"saved," while others have declared their
"faith" in the Saviour.
lly what method ot reasoning can it be said
that a man who was born and brought up In
a Christian home was "converted?" We do
uot know what is meant by "saved" as long
as a man is on this side of the Hlver. A man
must be ignoraut and does not know the
meaning of words, if he gels up and orolesses
"conversion" and "belief," wheu nothing has
hoi.n rirnKfnicd t-j change hIs religion or
when no new facts are made kuowu upon
Which to base a new "faith." Faith In based
on beliel. Belief Ik based on evident lacts.
If a preacher presents uo (acts not known helure,
how call 11 he said that the individual
has embraced faith" in a proposition, where
there has not been preseuted even grounds
for the "belief which Is necessarily a prto

"Bromonia" is to the human system
what the scrubbing brush and soap are
to the dirty washbowl.. It aids Na- <
ture to resume normal action. It increases
the strength, the fighting ability
of ihe phagocytes of the blood ; it
promotes the healthy flow of the salivary
and gastric secretions. If your
stomach is in good condition, you are '
well. The Chinese are a wise people. ' tyi

Letter to J. IS. Stark. >V
Dear Sir; But few of the men who ; j
sell the hundred different paints in tbe - *
market know much about them. All
Devoe agents have a state chemist'.*
certificate telling just what it's made
of; they know a good deal, not only
about Devoe but the rest: we see that
they do. We buy every paint, that
has any sale, and analyze it. Our
agent finds out all about it.
Whan \x7a Irnnw what ?. nainf is
made of, we know how it will act; we
know how far it goes, and how long it
wears. .
Devoe is the standard; call it 100.
The best of the rest is about 75: the
worst about 25; the rest are between.
But the men, who sell them, don't
know any better. They know what
the maker tells them. That is; they
know that he tells them. They don't
know whether he tells them the truth
or not.
The business is not conducted on
knowledge; the less they know, the
more comfortable they are. .
Yours truly
F W Devoe & Co.
