Did you ever see any scorched ice?
Well, ask Jim Boyd about it, the man
who delivers ice for Mr. Taylor. Jim
says that sometimes tho ice gets a lit
tle scorched in the cooking. They cook
it in Augustat The only objection to
the scorched ice is that it tastes
scorched and melts so'oner than ice
cooked slowly and cautiously.
We he3r of cows ber.; killed by eat
ing sorghum cane. We well remem
ber when farmers would never allow
their stock to eat cane at all; they
said it was certain death. The rule is
now the other way, they want their
cattle to eat all they can get. But
there is danger in sugar cane as there
is in pease. Gradually accustom your
stock to eating this kind of food and
they will never be sick from it.
Call at the ADVERTISER office and
get your tickets. For electioneering
purposes the omnibus ticket is no
good. As its name indicates everybody
is on it, but there is no assurance that

ticke s you may be helping the other
fellow. And another thing, you don't
know when these tickets will fret
here, nave your own tickets printed.

sizeSj not all alike as was the rule in
old factory times. Some are to have
two rooms' oome three, four, five, and
six, and a few two story mansions-so
that our town will be beautified and
adorned instead of contrarywise no.
We believe Mr. James Paul already
ha9 the contract for building these
houses,
Mr, J, L. Price, of McCormick, was
in the city Monday and paid The In
dex- a pleasant call. He gives an en
couraging report of the work at the
"J Dorn gold mine. The lessees, Dun

ried on in our Baptist church this

and Dr. Gwaltney, of our town, con
ducting. Services are held at 5 and S
P. M. every day.
The abundant rains of last week and
this have wonderfully improved the
corn prospects; even the old corn5
almost despaired of during the dry
weather, has taken on a*ne\v life and
has become potent of promise, at least
for a nubbin.
Newspaperdom utters this bit of
truth: "Xever judge a person by his
outward appearance. A shabby old
coat may enwrap a newspaper pub
lisher, while a man wearinga high
plug hat and sporting a gold-headed
cane may be a delinquent subscriber.'
Two Hocks of wild geese passed ever
our town this week. What does it
portend? Some old coons say it means
an extremely hard and carly winter.
But do you think, could you for a mo

white folks?

Carlyle on Webster.
Thomas Carly]a, who once met
Daniel Webster at a -friend's house
at breakfast, said : "The American
Webster I take to be ono of the
stiffest logic buffers and
parlimentary athletes anywhere to
be met with in our world at
present-a grim, tall broad bottom
ed, yellow skinned man, with
brows like precipitous c ? i ? Ta and
huge, black, dull, wearied, yet uu
wearible looking eyes under them ;
amorphous projecting nose, and
the angriest shut m?">uth I have any
where seen. A droop on the sidos
of the upper lip is quite maetiff
like-magnificent to look upon, it
is so quiet, withal. I guess I should I
like ill to be that man's- nigger, j
flouever, he i? a right clever man!
in his way and has a husky sort of ?j
fun in him, too; drawls in a hand
fast, didactic manner about our
republican institutions, etc., and
so plays his part."

JULIO 29, 1S98. j
DEAR ADVERTISER: Asl stand,
night after night, on the deck of
our vessel and watch the stars that
in a few hours will "be bending
over* you at home, I am reminded
of the poem, "The Light in the
Window," published by my grand
mother ID the old ADVERTISER
many years ago. It begins like
this :
"I'm keeping now my lonely watch
Upon the heaving, billowy deep,
Aiul stars from out the midnight sky.
Like me, their silent vigils keep."
I wish I could recall the exact
words in which are described the
traveler's longing for home and
loved ones, and his assurance that
in a certain window his mother
keeps a light burning for him.
Hov; delightful to feel that three
or four thousand miles may have
no effect whatever upon human
affections-to feel that home and
loved ones and God and happiness,
too, are near to us if we only real
ize and chose ?to accept the truth
for what is happiness but trust in
God, and what is God but love?
Sitting alone in my state-room, the
J old Edgefield friends seem as near
as, when a school boy, I lived
among them-as dear as, when
they set me apart for the ministry
that bright Sunday morning-as
really present as when last I shook
hands with them in parting. I
have often wondered how a man
would feel under such circum
stances, and now I know. Thank
God I am not disappointed, and
that time and space are unknown
in the vocabulary of love and
friendship. If ever a young mau
owed a debt of gratitude to his
town and county, I do, .andi feel
like acknowledging it here-for as
soho?l boy, page, Citadel cadet,
county secretary and minister of
Jeans Christ they have borne with
my weakness and helped me to be
a mau. For this and for more, I
lovTe them, these high-strung, high
minded, high-toned people of
Edgefield town and county, who
are dearer to mo the more I see of
the great cities and the great North
?md Ihe great West and the great
what; not ! Hurrah for Edgefield !
Well, well, a man away from

need. Host from care and labor
time for body and brain to recu
perate and prepare for the battles
ahead. Most of the passengers on
board are secretaries or teachers
some are going to the Y. M. C.. A.
conference of all nations at Basie,
Switzerland, others are bound for
the World's Suuday-school con
vention in London, some, like my
self, wish to take in both. Then
thero is the usual number of Amer
ican tourists with no special pur
pose in view, or of foreigners re
turning home. One ol' tha passen
gers was a man who had lived in
Philadelphia for thirty-three years
and who- had turned his footsieps
towards old Ireland again, and we
saw him embark on the tender that
met us outside tho harbor of
Queenstown. The glimpses of the
Irish coast this morning were very
pretty indeed. For several hours
we stood on deck and watched the
beautiful farms and "patches" for
which the "Emerald Isle" is fa
mous. When we would come with
in a mile or two of the shore, some
of the passengers, peering through
iidd glasses, would declare that
they could tell which were potatoes
or mustard or barley. I didn't let
on that I had been raised on a
farm, for fear they would ask for
my opinion.

This shuffle-board is strictly a sea

A block of wood the shape of a

Unadulterated Flour.
Housekeeepers will ' have one

when they buy Hour. Heretofore
ii; has been more than an open

of all three.
The adulteration of flour has
probably never before been con

greater proportion of flour sold
here, and in all other cities, has
been adulterated or mixed iu the
