Edgefield Advertiser WEDNESDAY, J lt LY 19,19U5. . . v ._ I Lee^L NeWs. j Poverty is a hard rmrs \ but she raises healthy children. Prof. Whitman, the Optician of Augusta, will close his office dur ing the month of August! A woman always tells you it is foolish to worry-but she worries just: the same. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hall are spending a fortnight in Edgefield uuder the parental roof of the latter. Mr. A. S. Tompkins 'was in Co lumbia and Charlotte the greater portion of last week on important business. The bu8?neH3 man who strives morely to heep just inside tho law is not a safe mau to trust with your business. Mr. J. E. Mims is taking a va cation of two weeks, a portion of which he is spending with bis brother, Mr. H. A. Mims, in Wel don, N. Ci A woman's waist is located any where between her chin and her knees, being governed by the pre vailing style aud the taste of her dress-maker. Mr. and Mrs. Marion Burnett, of Greenwood, accompanied by their little daughter, Francie Marion, have been spending sev ? eral davs with Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Schenk. Senator Tillman has bepu ejec ted president of the state branch of the National Audubon Society, sud if he doesn't mind the W. C. T. U. sisters will yet have him wearing a bow of v-bite ribbon. Mr, W. L. Holeon, a good sub stantial citizen from the west-side, residing just one milo from An tioch church, announces himself as a candidate for cotton weigher for the town of Edgefield. The farmers generally- barring those who Jive in certaiu small areas in which the drought still continues-are very buoyant over the crop prospect. Young corn and cottoo seem to vie with each other a?.; to which can grow the faster^ Miss Lillie Henders'on, of Walterboro, is the guest of her sister Mrs. T. P. Burgess. She is very pleasantly remembered by tne many warm friends she made while among us two years ago. I Mr. N. R. Bartley, a very exem . plarycitizen and successful far mer of the Cleora section, an nounces.himself as a candidate in , this issue of tjj'e 'ATJVERTISEE for. the position" of public cot to ir weigher of the. tuwn of' Edgefield. Little Miss Francie Burgess, . who is very sweet ?nd gentie and Jady-like in her mun liefs, bas Koue for a visit of several week* to her young friend, Miss Butler, at Madison; Ga. The latter if will be remembered was a guest of little Francie last summer. PRESCRIPTIONS our special ty. We solicit your Prescriptions, dav or night. WE GUARANTEE pure drugs, accurate compouuding, and rea sonable prices. - W. E. LYNCH & CO. Every puree in Edgefield was drained very dry nn Saturday last by the venders of peaches and watermelon and chirping chick ens. Where is the starved mortal who would not spend his last pen ny for a basket of "Elbertas" or even a "Cobb Gem", and a,3 for a leg of a/Plymouth" Rock'', why, h . would nell his last shirt to get one occasionally. At the Orangeburg District Conference of the Methodist Epis copal church held at Elloree last week, the dispensary was called a child of the devil. We are glad the Conference has settled this matter because a good many peo ple were under the impression that Tililman was the father of dispensary. -Aiken Journal and Review. The purest, most highly per fumed and cheapest-quality con sidered-article in the way of toilet soap that we have seen in many a day is the Armour soap al Penn's. Ask Mr. Penn to show you the transparent tar soap which he is selling for 15 cent9, tbe usual ? price for such ?oap being 25 cents. For sweetness and delicacy of perfume Armour's Heliotrope is without an equal among soaps. Let us fill your prescriptions. We use only the best drug. G. L. PENN & SON.

Men who build good characters need never worry about their rep utations. Mr. Wallace Sheppard is now enjoying a visit to Edgefield, this being his first return to his first love since he departed for Jack sonville some mouths, ago. Mr. Oscar. S. Bushnell, a very prepossessing young mau from Augusta, is spendiug a fortnight's vacation with relatives in Edge field and vicinity, being to-day at the home of Rev. P. P. Blalock. Our f?llcw-townsman. Mr. Jas. A. Timmerman, who is well known to the people, and whg is fully qualified to perform the duties of the position is announced as a candidate for public cotton weigh er for the town of Edgefield. Upon every band can be heard expressions of profound regret because of the contemplated re turn.of Mr. R. ?. Ballowe and his family to Eufaula, Ala. Their departure will be a very distinct IOSB to our community. The work of remodelling the Wardlaw house goes steadily on. When completed Hon. and Mrs. Thos. H. Rainsford will have the most elegant home-very hand some and very convenient in all of its appointments-in this sec tion of the state. The friends of Mr. A. P. Broad water, the gallant old veteran who bas been in ill health for quite a [while, are happy to see him look ing so much better. Each succeed ing time that he drives in town he appears to be better thau ou the former visit. Immediately after the close of the couuty summer school Mr. P. H. Bussey, Jr., who recently graduated from the S. C. 0.1., was engaged to teach a school at Ul mers, Hamptou county, during the summer. He has secured the latge school at Bellvue, Richland coun ty, for the next session. The people are right after the dispensary. Besides Ihe mo\e meijt in Edgefield, vigorous cam paigns are being waged in tue following counties: Laurens, Saluda, Horry, Newberiy, Ander son, Greenville, Spurtanburg, Union, Chesterfield, Florence Darlington aud Mariou. Out ,*riend Joe Reese, who as chief and caterer has made a name for himself, will be in charge of the commissary department at Centre Spnug on to-morrow, therefore all who go may expect to find the long tables bountifully supplied with a well-cooked, well seasoned barbecued dinner. While Capt. S. M. Rice acted as conductor of the excursion to Charleston on Wednesday ?nd Thursday last, Mr. John L. Addi son-Cript. * Addison, we should have said-was conductor on the Edgefield-Aiken road. Mr. Addi son stands well with the officials of the Southern and bas a very ^bright ?nd promising future. Mr. Allen T. Samuel who has been a veiy faithful salesman for Mr. J. M. Coho for more lhan a year is off ou a well-deserved va cation. It is rather a siranga phe nomenon : Allen is rus':icatmg and recuperaling at his old hrrne at Hephzibah, Gu., but he lett hit Ilea: t in Edgefield. The race for the position of cotton' weigher is growing warm. It is a "sett snap", so to speak, and is well worth striving for. .There is but very little manual labor to be performed, little or no responsibility in connection with ihe discbarge of the duties of the position , and it pays approximate-^ ly !|i600 per annum, tber3 being r L'out 6,000 balee, of coti?u weigh ed during the past, season. Those who are uninformed as to the advunce in the price of bagging may be greatly surprised when they go to purchase their fall supply. Two-pound new bag ging is now quoted in Augusta at almost niue cents. Just what it will sell for on the local market depends upon when the merchauts bought. The advance is attributed to the failure of the jute crop. Mr. J. B. White, the retired merchant aLd capitalist of Au gusta, has loosed his purse strings and is now SDondiug some of his mouey for the benefit of humani ty. Seeing the need of a child's ward in the city hospital of Au gusta, this gentleman authorized ono to be handsomely and thor* oughly fitted up, and he is de fraying the expense which is several thousand dollars.

Mrs. Kate Black and Miss Lee Morrall, both of whom ara greatly beloved in Edgefield, have been spending several days in our town, the former being a guest of Mrs. Mary J. Norris and the latter with Mrs. S. M. Rice. It affords us great pleasure to chronicle the arrival in Edgefield of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. B. Harris and Mrs. Ann Eliza Harris, of Henderson, N- C., the father, mother and graud-rnother of Mrs. J hu R. Tompkins, who are to be guests of the latter for several weeks. With doting grand parents in the home, whose absence has doubtless accentuated .their affec tion, don't you know that bright little George Harris Tompkins will wield the sceptre over the entire household with a despotic hand, being even more arbitrary than the Czar of all the Russias. | When Rev. C. E. Burts returns early ic August Jae will be placed oh extra duty. Rev. T. P. Burgess, the Presbyterian pastor, and Rev. Marvin Auld, the Methodist pas tor, have each been granted a va cation of one month. The former will spend a portion of the time on Sullivan's Island and the lat ter wiil take his annual trip to the mountains. So Mr. Burte will be a lone sentinel on the tower, keeping watch over the entire community. He will have his ban is full, especially for a newly married man. AuAtchi3on girl of fifteen gets up in the morning, eats breakfast which her mother bas prrpared, goes upstairs and takes care of her room and theu goes down town, sometimes takiug two hours, to buy a spool of thread. She eats dinuer which her mother has pre pared, wears clothes her mother has.made, spends the afternoon reading story books or gadding with her friends, eats supper her mother bas prepared, spends the evening with her girl friends. She has done nothing wicked all day, and her mother is satisfied that she is bringing her up right. "But is she?-Atchisou Globe. "Uncle" Nick Brunsou, when not detained by an extra session ofhis court, makes regular tri weekly visits to his splendid farm on Horn's creek to see what the pigs and negroes and mules and cotton and corn and grass are doing. What delights him most is to pull off hie hat, coat, vest, collar and cravat, then sit out under a spreading oak and watch bis corn grow,. He says he can actually see it "stretch-up" when it pops; Y'oti" know he requires "the truth, the whole truth and not hing but the truth" from other?, so what he eays never falls short | bf nor goes "kelle de rise ot" the truth. The announcement that Mr. R. A. Bal lowe had resigned his posi tion as president of the Edgefield Manufacturing Company has been a great surprise to the entire com munity. Thi? actiou we are in formed, is not due to any seism or misunderstanding existing be tween him and the directors, for Mr*. Ballowe is held in high favor and esteem by all di rec tors..---and stockholders. His successor has not yet been chosen but it is very Drobable that Air. Charles H. FTsher_vii'ilJ'be elected. Mr. Rob erts will doubtless return to Eu fanla with Mr. Ballowe. Clergyman-Are you saiisfied, madam, to take this man aa your husband? Bride-to-be-Well, not quite, but he's the best I could get.

A very bashful young man, says ao exchange, called upon a'very, vivacious young lady who had in the parlor a beautiful little baby girl belonging to a neighbor..The young mau was somewhat in a dilemma over the many charms that were before him, but finally asked if he might be permitted to kiss the weo little thing. There upou the young lady rather pertly replied: "Oh, well, I suppose you can, if you are too cowardly to tackle a person nearer yGur own 1 size." j Edge fi eld Usually Wins.

W. Daniel, industrial education; C. C. Cham bliss, en?omologist ; C. L. New man, agriculturalist, aud Dr. L. A. Klein, veterinarian, who will be in charge.

All crops will be "laid by" baforei August lat, so there is no good, reason why hundreds of farmers should not attend this summer school of agriculture.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis courages and lessen0, an.bii.ion; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it Is not uncommon for a child to bc born afflicted with weak kid neys. If the child urin ates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able te control the passage, It Is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first I step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as ? most people suppose. - Women_as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble^ and both need the - sa m ?" ~ gTeaT^re mea j.
