Edgefield Advertiser WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 8. MRS. JOHN B. DAVIS. Departed this life ou Sunday afternoon last at 5 o'clock Mrs. J. B. Df 7'.s. For several weeks she had been very ill, but the sad and final farewell was not expected so soon. Mrs. Davis has been a resident of Edgefie'd for about twelve years, and had learned to feel that it was her home. She lived a quiet and unobtrusive life, and was devoted to her home and children. She leaves her husband and six chil dren, the eldest, A. T. Davis of Greenville, Misses Sudie and Til lie, and John Davis Jr., and two little sons Floyd and Henry, all old enough to realize what a loss they have sustained. Her re mains were carried on Monday to Good Hope Baptist cburob, where she has been for years a member. The sad messenger of death brings sorrow to ma Dy homes, but never sadder than when it is to bear away the loved spirit of a devoted mother. But the short afflictions of the present are not to be compared to the glory that shall be revealed hereafter, and the furnace of sor sow is a stepping stone to the higher life. May all learn the lesson which each cross shall teach. "Oh these parting scenes Will ead, Some sweet day by andhy We shall gather friend with friend^ Some sweet day by and by, And the star that fading: here, Left our hearts and homes so drear, We shall see more bright and clear Some sweet day by and by."

Smith, of Paris Mountain .township, 9 brought to town on Thursday an object leeson in corn. On the 15th of last April, Mr. Smith planted corn, one field with seed of local raising and another with seed of Western forn. He plucked aev?r^T"iiTifB-?r?d brought" them to to^n. The corn grown /rom Western seed is well matured and ready for use. The corn of local growth is about three weeks behind the other. But this is not the only superiority of the West ern corn over the other. One ear of the Western corn has on it 1748 grains, while an ear of the local corn has 848 grains, just about half. Mr. Smith says he will make about 35 or 40 bushels to the acre of the Western corn. The grains >re larger and more perfectly form ed than those of che Southern corn, and taken alcogether it seems to be a better article. There is no reason in the world why the South should not raise corn equal ly as well as the West.-Green ville Mountaineer. Advertised Letters.

Tribute to a Dead Confederate Edgefield Soldier by His Com manding Officer. MR. EDITOR : Please publish the following letter of Capt. J. H. Brooks which explain itself.

NINETY-SIX, S. C., ) Aug. 30,1897. i MR. WM. H. OUZTS : Dear Bill:-In the Sunday's News and Courier of the 22nd inst., Judge Thomas discribes the action of my Company of Nelson's Battalion in Mie battle of Drew ry's Bluff,,on the 16th of May 1864. In this narrative he men tions your cousin John Henry Ouzts, color bearer of the Battal ion, as having been killed whilst bearing the colors. Seeing thia narrative reminded me of a duty I ought to have performed long since, aud which I now undertake with mingled feelings of pleasure and pain. That duty is to bear testimony under my own signa- j ture for the benefit of his family, j to your cousin's high character as a : soldier, I am persuaded to do this, j not only from my high appr?cia- . tion of him, hut because circum stances seem to forbid justice be- , ing done his memory. Those cir- \ cumstancoB are : ? First, that as my compacy was raised from several counties, it j does not appear in the Adjutant- ( General's office as an Edgefield company. 2nd, I suppose for the above reason it does not appear in Chap man's History of Edgefield. 3rd, I do not soe his name men tioned in your family history as given by Chapman. I blame nobody for this as it tseems natural, and as a matter of fact, I have suffered a like fate, I think, from some of the same causes. Of couree you will see that I mean and refer to my com pany H, of the 7th Battalion (Nelson's) as Chapman does re cord the roll of Company G, 7th Regiment. Well, Bill, this must not be 1 John was too good a boy. and too good a soldier to be thus neglected. In camps and in field there was not a better soldier in the command. In drill he was admirable ; at inspection he was neat and always had his arms and accor"rements in excell?nfe order; in camp duties he was prompt and energetic, in quarters be wad moral, amiable and cheer ful, always polite, modest and obedient to orders ; and in battle as cool and brave as the bravest. Merit alone made him color bear er of as fine a command as our State gave the Confederacy. He was true to his truBt and died flaunting theso colors in the faces of the foe. He died young, but with the highest airaB of a soldier attained-an honorable re cord and a glorious death. I feel that from me this tribute is due and I have no other motive than to render justice to a deserv ing soldier, from whom accident seems to withhold it. Show this letter to his people as it- may be pleasing to them. Very truly yours, J. H. BROOKS. Johnson's Chill and Fever Tonic Cures Fever in One Dav. Weather for Angust. Weather Observer C. A.

It Offers Many Advantages, and Tide Has Turned 'Ibis Way. N. F. Thompson, secretary of the Johnstown, Pa., board of trade, writes to the New York Times as follows : . . "The matter of farming, colonization of tho surplus labor and population of the east on the fertile lands of the south, where lands are relatively cheaper aod more productive than in most of the other states of that section, is just now attracting very wide attention. This is due in part to the editorials that have appeared in the Philadelphia Times and the Press of that city on the subject. They are being widely noticed throughout the south, and natually the metropolitan press is looked to for some show of interest in it. "The fact is dawning upon the minds of thousands through this ?ection that the weBt no longer offers attractions for settlers. Many from the west are now seek ing homes in the south, and they are impressed with the belief that it would have been better for them From the outset to have gone direct to the south. Be that as it may, :he tide is now unquestionably toward the south, and will mateiialize for that section just tn proportion as it will be properly received there. 1 "The greatest problem with-: (vhich the east has not to deal is the disposition to be made of its surplus labor and population. Under the most favored conditions it is recognized that there is not smploymeut for all, but that many, if they remain here, must suffer want and privations untold from thal cause. Why not, then, make this move to the south-one that will promise relief? It can easily be done, aud every impulse of humanity, patriotism, and state craft demands that it at least be attempted. "From a long anji, intimate acquaintance with all -.portions of the south, and without a single dollar of interest at stake, I will take pleasure in giving information to any who may apply therefor on this matter." JOHNSON'S CHILL AND FEVER TONIC Cures Fever In One Day. A Pointer for Ben TilHl^ .Ben Tillraan can stop his sky larking now and get down to busi ne(38. If ho wants to hold, h is own and maintain his grip upon the popular confidence and vote of this State, he wlil have to display both the executive ability and the disposition to promote the real in terests of the people and of the taxpayers, instead of playing upon their factions and class prejudices. The politicians have got a knife up the sleeve for him, aod once they get him on the run there is no tell ing where it will end. Let him stop "monkeying" with the whis key traffic ; retain what is good of the dispensary idea-the fea tures of it that were engrafted on the State Constitution ; do away with the State Belling placesj im pose high license and stringent conditions on the "original pack age" stores, thus securing all the moral benefits possible, and at the same time saving to the State the much-needed revenue from the whiskey business which is now go ing into the pockets of the alien and the stranger. The federal courts have got his political "machine" by the throat and will surely strangle it sooner or later. They should have made a clean job of it by chopping off its head with the constitutional axe long ago. It would have been a more merciful and humane mode of execution not only to the con demned system, but to the specta tors as well. In short, let Senator Tillman f.>r once rise to the plane of true patriotism and statesman ship and he may perpetuate through merit the hold he has hitherto obtained on the people by shrewd politics.-Charleston Critic Quinine and other fe ver medicines take from S to W days to cure fever.

ONE OF TWO WAYS The bladder was created for one pur po?e, namely, a receptacle for the urine, andas such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way is from im perfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from careless local treat ment of other diseases. CHIEF CAUSE. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. Sothewomo, like the blad der, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience mani fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or usinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided; Io find out correctly, set your urine aside for 24 hour; a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney and bladder remedy, is soon real ized. If you need a medicine ycu should have the best.
