are coming in daily from various
points. The spinners, weavers, warp

ketchers are all coming. Let 'em come
and let'er roll! ,
If you toot your little whistle and

is the man who plows all da}', and the
man who keeps a humping is the man
who makes it pay. The man who ad
vertises with a short and sudden jerk
is the man who blames the printer be
cause it didn't work. The man who
gets the business uses brainy printer's
ink, not a cutter and a sputter but an
ad that makes you think; and he plans
his advertisements as he plans his well
bought stock, and the future of his
business is as solid as a rock.-Ex.

Knights of Pythias, No. 47. \
July 19,1898. )
We recognize with profound sor
row that diath has removed from '
our midst our beloved brother
William Hayne Folk, so long en
deared to us as a brother knight. 1
Resolved, That by this sudden
aud sad stroke, this lodge of the
Knights of Pythias, as well as the
nobie order at large, has lost one
of its most useful and worthy mem
bers; a brother who has filled with
credit and advantage the highest
oilice in our Lodge ; he being at his
death a most worthy Past Chan
cellor, which testifies to the high
esteem in which he was held by
this Lodge. .
Resolved, That this Lodge feels
assured that in the death of W. H.
Folk the bar of Edgefield has lost
one of its most admirable mem
bers, and the county and State has
been deprived of one of her most
patriotic, eloquent, and useful
citiz'.nn.
Resolved, That this Lodge do
Cruel Knife!
It is absolutely useless to expect a
surgical operation to core cancer, oz
any other blood disease. The cfueltj
of such treatment ls illustrated in the
alarming number of deaths which re
sult from it. The disease is in the
blood, and hence can not be cut out.
Nine times out of ten the surgeon's
knife only hastens death.
My son had a most malignant Cancer, foi
Which the doctors said an operation was th?
only hope. The oper
ation WM a severe
one, aa lt was neces
sary to oat down to
the jawbone ana
eorape it. Before a
great while the Can
oer returned, and-ba
san to grow rapidly.
We gave him many
remedies without re
lief, and finally,
apon the advice of a
mond, daolded to
try S. S. 8. (Swift'e
SpeciflQ), and withe
tge eooond bottle he -
began to Improve. After twenty bottles ho<J
been taken, the Oanoer disappeared entirely,
and he was oured. The cure waa a permanent
ene, fdr ho ie now seventeen years ola, and hat
nover lied a sign of the dreadful disease to re
turn. J. M. MtJBPoOB,
270 Snodgrass St., Pallas, Texas.
Absolutely the only hope for Cancer
ls Swift's Specific,
For
Blood
as it is the only remedy whioh goes
to the very bottom of the blood and
forces out every trace of the disease.
8. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable,
and oontains no potash, mercury, oz
other mineral.
Books on Oanoer will be mailed free
to any address by the Swift Specific:
Go., Atlanta, Ga.
present to his bereaved family a
copy of these resolutions as a tes
timony of our hearty condolence
and sympathy.
Resolved, That in token of our
sorrow a copy of these resolutions
be spread on the minutes of this
Lodge and also be published in the
county papers.

Ye who would more of Spain and

Go read whate'er is writ of bloodiest

Whate'f:r keen vengeance urged on
foreign foe
Can act is acting there against man's
life.
From flashing scimerar to secret knife,
War moldeth their own weapon to
his need,
So he may guard the fister and the
wife,
So may he make each curst oppres
sor bleed,
So may such foes deserve the most re
morseless deed !
Flows there a tear of pity for the dead?
Look o'er the ravage of the reeking
plain;
Look on the hands with female slaugh
ter red,
Then to the dogs resign the unburied
slain;
Then to the vuiture let each corse
remain,
Albeit unworthy of the prey bird's
maw,
Let their bleach'd bones and blood's
unbleached stain
Long mark the battlefield with hideous
awe,
Thus only may our sons conceive the
scenes we saw.

FROM CHICKAMAUGA.
Col. Jim Tillman on Saluting Ne
gro Officers-He Captures
Our Carolina Boys.
A young man from Spartanburg
county writes home from Chicka
mauga that there is very bad feel
ing between our Southern white
and those negro soldiers. It seems
that the negro officers are very
domineering, insulting, and always
take particular pains to throw
themselves in the way of our South
Carolina boys, as the military rules
require subordinates and privates
to salute their superior officers.
The soldiers from other stales
obeyed, and it is said that one of
those negro officers would walk a
mile to pass a Southern company,
to have them lift their hats to-h im.
But when our South Carolina
troops reached Chickamauga, they
positively refused to salute any of
the negro officers, and the result
was that serious trouble threaten
ed. Our South Carolina boys were
called together, and Col. Alston
made a very conservative bpeech,
in which he told them about mili
tary discipline, and that when thoy
enlisted they must expect to obey
army regulations. Lieut.-Col. Jim
Tillman was called for and he
made a speech that set the boys
wild with enthusiasm, and made
him the idol of the regiment. Jim
Tillman grew eloquent in his re
marks. He said : "We are South
Carolinians and white men, and
no earthly power can force our
boys to lift ourhat8to one of those
negro officers; and so long as I
hold a command in this regiment,
and I hear of one of South Caro
lina's soldiers saluting a negro
officer, I will kick him out of his
company. We have enlisted to
fight for our country, and not to
practice social equality with an
inferior race, which our fathers
held in bondage." Thoy say that
when Jim Tillman concluded,
those Southern soldiers went wild
with enthusiasm, and that even
the Northern and Western white!
officers complimented hiB patriotic
remarks and said he had won the
respect of every Anglo-Saxon sol
dier in the camp.
