Over-dose Morphine Caused Death
Our community was shocked on
Saturday last by' the announce

W. D. Britt. He had not been well
for several day.:! and, being in a
highly nervous condition, took a
dose of morphine in order to rest,
aud sleep.. His condici?n soon in
dicated 'hat the dor-e was too
large. Physicians were summoned
but were unable to counteract the'
deadly drug.
Mr. Britt was for a uumb?r of
years engineer on tne Southern
railroad. A wife and tour children"
survive him. The interment took
place in the village cemetery on
Sunday afternoon, Rev. Marvin
Auld conducting the funeral.

Letter to Giles Butter.
Edgefield, S. a
Dear Sir : You buy your horse
shoe's and nails; your grandfather,
if he waH a blacksmith, made 'em.
You can't afford to hammer them
out by hand, when you can buy
as good, or better perhaps, ready
made to your hand, for a little
more than the cost of the iron.
What do you think of a painter )
who goes on buying his linseed oil
and white lead, and mixing, and
tinting by hand, and charging his
time for work, that is far better
done than he can do it, done by
machinery, done as your horse
shoes and nails are made.
Mistake isn't it.
He is wasting his chance in the
world. There is no belter stuff to
do busiuess with than good horse
shoes aud paint: and no b-Uar.
work than putting them on. Good
horseshoes well put on: It's the
putting 'i'm on that makes you a
blacksmith: no matler who mases
em.*
Who wan:s lo go back to old
times, and make his own horse
shoe *.
Between us two, that painter
don't know how to make good
paint-be used to; but pain-. baB
run away from bim.
Yours truly,

The Commencement of 19n? Ttl
Most Brilliant in The History oil
The S. C. C. I.
The graduating exercises tflj
night in the college auditoriufl
will be a brilHaut climax to tj
most interesting and succeseffij
commencement since the estaffl
lisbment of the South CaroliB
Cp-Educatioual Institute. ThH
means much, for as the eight coifl
mencements have como a Dd gol
each has been so enjoyable andi
tull of good things that we cow
not have hoped for better.
Through all these years we haH8
been eye-witnesBes to the rema?
able development which has tal?
place in the intellectual life!
Edgefield, nuder the influence!
this institution. Not mentioufi
at all the financia] advantafl
which have ueceisarily accrvH
from the large uumber"of persaH
added to our ]iopulation bothH
and out of the college buildiM
and the superior quality of thffl
uew citizens, there is aLot^?
phase of the situation which is
especially striking, to those inter
ested in.the uplift of the intelli
gence of the community. Every
one knows that intelligence bearf
wealth iu its grasp, aud that ignor
ance aod poverty are twin sisters,
SQ that the financial aud educa
tional interests of the community
react materially upon each otbe-,
but some of the striking results
bf the refining . influence of the
college is evident wheu it is learn
ed that where Edgefield was the
proud possession of one musician
tweuty yoars ago, or three, ten
years ago, there arc more thau caD
easily be numbered uow. It is the
exception when a young womau
"ras nojkuowledge of music. Where
there was one artist the increase
bas been relatively, as great. For
merly there were few sous aud
daughters, perhaps uot a half
dozen iu a generation, who on ac
count of special gifts and by
means of an extended stay at
schools in o'ber sections, became
intellectual lights iii this commu
nity. It is not sot >day without
leaving the native Foil of Edge
field our girls aiul boys can git all
this and' more. This bas beconv
manifest in a decided elevation in
the average of intelligence and
refiuemeDt. The past eight years
have beeu those of seed sowing,
and already there is a rich harvest
but what will the end be? Surely
the returns, the blessings will be
more than we will have room
enough to receive.
On Friday.evening the literary
societies held their abnualjdecla
matiou contest for the J. C. Shep
pard aud N., G. Evans medals.
The Freshman class was represent
ed by four contestants, Cadets
.Walton, Humphreys, Black and
.Axon. The gaiuing of this was
for Cadet Humphreys a well won
victory, for, the young men all
^aye-evidence'of- oratorical gifts.
Just one year ahead of th?se in
years and training were, the con
testants of the Sophomore class,
Cadets J. B. Black, Charlie Whit
tle, and Arnoldus Lewis Mr. Black
was the successful winner of the
N. G. Evans medal. Beautiful
music was interspersed-a duet by
Mis3es Edvvardiua aud Mariou
Blalock, Mipses Emmie and Ellen
McKio and a solo by Miss Ella
Mays.
Sunday witnessed a great
gathering in the college auditori
um. Rev. W. E. Wilkins of the
first Baptist church of Columbia
preached the commencement ser
mon. This was a verv original aud
eloquent discourse on the life of
the" Apostle Paul, and inspired
heroism iu the audience. It won.
fruit iu the afternoon at the stu
dents prayer-meetiug at which
Mr. Wilkins was preseot when a
number of students made earnest
talks aud siguified their inteution
of becoming more useful, Quite a
number askrd for prayer and
some will unite with their re
spective churches when they
reach their bom3s.
-Th? sermon before the college
Y. M. C. A. was d -livered by R?v.
Royal Shauuonhouse. This was
oue of the most practical and sug
gestive of the many addresses and
sermons ou the subject of habit P.

The art lev?e on Tuesday after
noon was well attended, the draw

Women as Well as Men
Are Made Miserable by
Kidney Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis
courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor
and cheerfulness scon
disappear when the kid
neys are out of order
or diseased.
Kidney trouble has
become so preval?.:.'
that it is not uncommon
for a child to bc b: TI
afflicted with weak kid
neys. If ike child urin
ates too often, if thc
urine scalds thc flesh or if, when thc child
reaches an age when it should bc able tc
control the passage, it is yet afflicted with
bed-wetting, depend upon it. thc cauco ci
thc difficulty is kidney trouble, ar.d thc first
step should be towards the treatment ci
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of thc
kidneys and bladder and-not ;to a habit as
most people suppose.
Women as weil as men are made mis
erable with kidney and bladder trouble,
and both need the same great remedy.
The mild and the immediate effect cf

Sciatica Cured After Twenty Years
of Torture..
For more than twenty year?.
Mr. J. B. Massey, of 3322 Clinton
St, Minneapolis, Minn., was tor
tured by sciatica. The pain and
suffering which he endured during
this time is beyond comprehen
sion. Nothing gave him any per
manent relief until he used Cham
berlain's Pain Bai n. Ono applica
tion of that liniment n lieved the
pain and made sleep and rest pos
sible, and less than one bottle
has tff cted a permanent cure. If
troubled with sciatioa or rheuma
tism why not try a 25-cent buttle
of Pain Balm aud see for your
self how quickly it relieves the
pain. For sale by G. L. Penn &

Gear.
Our TRIUMPH GEAR speaks
for itself. It hus more desirable
features tjiao any other side
spring gear. It ie so constructed
that the center or brace springs
serve a double purpose, i. e., both
a brace and equalizer, consequent
ly you get less side motion than
on any other side spring gear.
Put your whole weight on 'one
step off the TRIUMPH, and
watch the result, then go through
the same operation on any other
side spring gear vehicle and you
will find the TRIUMPH goes down
level, while the others cant to one
side. It is justly entitled to its
name, the TRIUMPH.
