Dies iu Abbeville.
The following account of the
death of Mr. -Thcs. M. Christian,
a native and for many years a
resident of our lown, we clip from
the Abbeville Press and Banner:
"Mr. Thomas M. Christian after
a long an j tedious illness, died in
this city about 2 p. m. Ia6t Mon
day in his 70th year. The deceas
ed came to Abbeville about 47
years ago when quito a young man
and engaged in the carriage busi
ness wit? E. J. Taylor & Co. He
has ever since lived in our midst,
and was known by all to be hon
est, truthful and charitable, ever
ready with a willing hand to give
to those in need. He was a mem
ber of Clinton Lodge, No. 3, A. F.
M., since 1S53, and held the office
of Tyler for said Lodge about |
tweuty-iive years. His brethren
of this Lodge showed him every
kindhess and attention during his
?utire illness, besides supplying
his every want. About a month
ago he joined the Methodist church
of this city under Rev. J. W. Dan
iels, pastor in charge, and as an
humble member died trusting in
the atoning blood of Christ. Just
above the mantel in his room, and
upon which his eyes last rested,
was the motto, "The Lord will pro
vide,''wr ich was literally fulfilled
in bis case. His remains rested in
Clinton Lodge until 4 p. m. Tues
day, from whence they were ta\eo
to Upper Long Cane kirk yard,
where they were interred with
Masouia honors in the presence of
a large number of friends."

Revised Statutes of 1993, rela
ting to eutry on lands of an
other.
Section 1. Be it enacted by the
General Assembly of the State of
South Carolina: That Section 176
of the Criminal Statutes of South

same ?B bore'oy, amended so as to
read as fol lo ?. s :
Section 186. Every entry upon
the laud of another after notice

CHIEF CAUSE.
Un'!.-ailhy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the worno, 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
es. 1? is situated back ol' and very
?.lose to tiie bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or inconvenience mani
fested ii ti e killi eys, bark, bladder or
usinai y passage is often, hy m ??take
attributed to female weakness or
womb ir-.miile- cf some sort. The error
is easily made and may be as easily
avoided. Co lind our correctly, si-t
your urine aside for '2\ hour; a
sediment or. .settling indicates kidney
or bladder trouble. Tin1 mild and tue
extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Kool, the grjnt kidney
and bladder remedy, is soon real
ized. 1;' you need a medicine you
should have the best. Al druggists,

EDWARD W. SeOTT,
PRESI9ENT.
Issues all Forms of Policies
at Lowest Possible Rates '
Consistent with Safety.
AND without making special medtion of each of its many popu
lar plans ol" insurance, we desire to invite the careful examina
tion of all concerned in Lifo Insurance to THE PROVIDENTS
TWENTY-YEAR RENEWABLE TERM POLICY-A SPECIAL
POLICY FOR BUSINESSMEN.
Twenty years is a long time. This is true in life insurance, as
well as in other business transaction?. Nearly all life insurance poli
cies arc contracts for a period of twenty years. They are made so by
insurance com pan ie J to supply the the needs of the insuring public.
When a man takes a whole-lift, twenty payment life or twenty-year
ijond, he considers its cost to him during twenty years, and the settle
ment which he can make et thc cul of twenty years. Experience and
statistics prove that only a small percentage of policies are continued
longer than tile twenty-year period.
Men take ou large liue.3 of insurance from age 30 to 40. The en
suing twenty years cover the period when their families are growing
up and being educated ; it also covers the period of their greatest busi
ness activity. It covers the time when their families and business in
terests require the greatest amount of protection.
A man's requiicuents a e not the s..'ne at 60 years that they are
at 40 years. His family has grown up, his business conditions have
changed, or thc ne< .-.rsity for insurance has disappeared.
In view of these facts, The Provident Savings issues a policy at a
fixed rate for twenty years, which includes only ihe cost of protection
for that time. The premiums on th's policy are iess than one-half the
premiums charged for a twenty-payment life. If a man wants insur
ance for protMciian on/i/, this policy will supply his wants admirably.
He is not obliged lo make a deposit w;th an insurance company for a
future which he may never reach; especially when he has need for
this deposit, and more, too, in his business.
To illustrate this Policy, we will give the figures. A man at 30
takes one of these Policies for .$1,000 at the regular term rates of $14.91
per anntcm for twenty years. This policy can be coutiuued, after
twenty years, without- medical re-examination, at rates for the age
then attained.
