It was with great pleasure thatj
the children and grandchildren of
Mrs. Mary F. Creswell gathered at
her home on last Friday, June the
7th, to celebrate her 80th birthday*
Her meeting each and every one
with her sweet smile made everything
lovely. The day was spent
pleasantly by all. Mr. J. W. Young
also dined with, her. Ice cream was
served during the day.
At noon a table was spread full
of good things to eat and we all
seemed to be feeling our best right
at this time and enjoyed feasting.
We were sorry when the day was
passed and the sun low, but we bade
her good-bye wishing her many more
happy birthdays and that uoa wouiai
bless and keep her under the shadow
of His wing.
This dear received presents and
souvenirs on one of them was written
those words given by one of the
children, Mrs. T. P. Creswell. It
represents every 10 years of her
life:
"In 1838 there came a white rose
into this world to unfurl its beauty,
in the person of Mary Frances Boggs
"1848, in early chilhood, she was
deprived the affection of fond parent
in the death of her father.
"1858, in the bloom of youth we
find her and her companion enjoying
happy school days.
"1868, ready to set sail on life's
shore, her heart was pierced ,with
an arrow of love and she be6ame
the bride of Robert P. Creswell.
"1878, their home was made
brighter as the Olive plant gathered
around their table.
"1888, their hearts were saddened
over the death of two children.
"1898, again as in childhood she
feels the Heavenly Father's touch
by the death of her devoted husband.
"1908, she now watches her children
as they go out from under her
roof to become home makers.
1918, as we children and grandchildren
gather around our silverhaired
mother and grandmother, today
we try but in a feeble way to
show our love and appreciation of
her who has been spared to us so]
long.
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
catarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
deafness is caused by an inflamed I
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamea you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Hall's Catarrh Medicine actsi
through the blood on ^ the mucous
surfaces of the system.
We will give One .Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Hall's
Catarrh Medicine. Circulars free.

borrow some money if necessary to ^
do it with, would you not?
A silo filled with sorghum, velvet
beans, and corn, or any mixture of a
these crops will do all that, and si
more. it
In building a silo in this State
you are not conducting an experi- j
ment. You are practicing the soundest
business methods known to live
stock farmers. There are now 295 K
silos of all kinds in South Carolina,
and 99 per cent, of the owners after
having used them are strong advocates
for silos. We can furnish you f
free of cost bills of materials and I
printed instructions for building
silos, costing from $60 up.
Build a Silo and:
1. Feed your cattle better for
less money.
2. Produce more milk, butter, T
and beef, and incidentally more hogs
3. Save the whole crop and convert
it to the needs of the country
as a profit to yourself.
4. Save buying so much- sacked ^
feeds, thereby reducing freight a1
shipments. ?
5. Clear your land earlier for
t]
fall plowing. r]
6. Be a progressive farmer. m
Plant the crop to fill that silo ?
