Never forget that you are a part of the town, and that your own deportment helps to make up the strangers' estimate of the place. Sell all you can and buy all you cati at home.

Do not kick at a proposed improvement simply because it is not at your door -Ex. Death of a Sweet Little Babe. On Friday, near the noon hour, the precious infant son of Mr. aud Mrs. J. Horde Allen, pasted into the beyond. Only a few hours' of warniDg were given that the little life would soon be ended. Just the afternoon before the devoted mother end father and littlejohn Hiiosfrrd, were out together, and the baby was being admired for his beauty and health. ';But thou hast all seasons for thine own, O Death." There are millions of these lit tle darliugs iu the better world around the throne of God, the jewels of his love, "for their angels do always behold the face of my father which is in heaven.'' Many of these have gone iuto the Glory laud fro.n scenes of want and suffering and sorrow, when .all could clearly see the wisdom of their going, but this little one was taken from the arms or loviug and anxious parents, where every thing promised necurity and hap piness. ..

Canvassing for Furman University Mr. R. C. Burts visited his brother, Dr. C. E.-Burts, last week. Mr. Burts is an honor gradu ate of Furman University and.has been engaged to canvass for that institution this summer. Soon after graduating, Mr. Burts was elected superintendent of the Graded School at Easley, S. C., and has been again chosen to fill that position next session. Wherever he is known Mr.R. C. Burts is recognized as one of the "coming" young men of the state. High School for Johnston. The Advertiser is pleased to know that Johnston is taking steps to establish a High School undei the recent act of the legis lature. There ought to be at least two in the county. Why canuot oue be established at Parksville? By a consolidation of scLool dis tricts it seems that one could be easily established in the capital of the West-side. Jt would be a great boon for that portion of the county. What say you, Parksville trustees? Mule and Cart Purchased. The town council has purchased a mule, cart and harness from Mr. A. T. Covar for the sum of $140, and hencefortn alJ hauling for street improvement will be done by the town's own leam. There being considerable work need?d on BooiP of the streets, it was de cided after due consideration that this ^ork could be done cheaper and to better advantage by the town owning a team. The inui<^ will- also be used to pu^ibe chemical engine when fire-alarms are given. y Sunday School Convention. Elsewhere in this issue will b-i found the program of the Baptist Sunday School Convention which will be held at Rehoboth on July 24th and 25th. Dr. J. D. Moore", Sunday Babool secretary of the state, will be present and deliver several addresses. It is possible that his brother who balds a simi lar position iu North Carnliua' will also be present. A full rep resentation from ali of the schools in the association is vory earnestly desired. Let none fail to send delegates. Blind Man Threads a Needle; County Home theru is ap old colored man who is a very re markable character in raaujr re spects. He has been an inmate of the Hom9 for more than thirty yearB, and, notwithstanding\the fact that ho is totally bliudAhe makes himself useful in maW ways. His chief duty is to draW all of the water that'is consumed^ on the place by man and beast. The most wonderful of this old darkey's achievements, however, is bis ability to toread a needle and sew. He cuts his own hair, shaves himself, threads the needle and does his own patcbin'. That's more than most men who have two good eyes can do. Feast Day at County Home. Thursday, July 4th, was a day of feasting at the County Home. Steward Scurry killed the fatted calf and a pig or two, which he had barbecued to the king's taste. After all of the inniates of the home, nineteen in number, bad been bountifully served with din ner, a long table was arranged in. the shade cf the trees, and the finest barbecue dinner that ever mortal tasted was spr?ad upou it. Besides the highly seasoned meats delightful cakes and pies were provided in great abundance, these being the handiwork of Mrs. Scurry. After dinner a large tin tub of ice cold lemonade was on tap. Steward Scurry can do more than prepare a first-class barbecue dinner. He has seventy-odd acres i f as fine corn as can be found auy nliore and the fa~m is well supplied with stock, including thirty seven hogs. Under his management the affairs of the County Home are conducted in a businesslike manner. There is an air of prosperity about the entire place. The Charming Woman ie not necessarily one of perfect form and features. Many a plain woman who could never serve aB an artist's model, possesses those rare qualities that all the world admires: neatness, clear eyes, clean smooth skin and that sprightliness of step and action that accompany good health. A physically weak woman ?3 never attractive, not evau to herself Electric Bitters restore weak wo. men, give strong nerves, bright eyes, smooth, velvety skin, beau tiful complexion. Guaranteed. B.

"Before and After Taking.** At the'cue at the County Home last Thursday while Supervisor Self . and Steward Scurry were standing together- talking, somp comment . was made upon the "leanness" of ede and the "fat ness" of the other. Whereupon, Mrs. Self said they reminded her of the advertisement iu the alma nac of "before and after taking." Su nday School Picnic at Ropers. ID spite of the intense heat, a large crowd gathered at Ropers on Saturday last to enjoy a Sunday school picnic. Appropriate speech es were made by Hon. T. Garrett Talbert, Mr. W. B. Cogburn, Mr. John E. Swearingen and Mr. P. R. Wates. The delightful dinner that had been provided in such great variety and abundance added much to the pleasure of the day. Such occasions are thoroughly enjoyed alike by the old and the youug, and greatly iucrease the interest iu the Sunday school. I Reception on College Campus. The young people who attended the reception.given by the Baptist Snnday school ou Friday evening last ou the College campus are lavi?h injtheir praises of the man ner in which everything was con ducted. Delightful ice lemonade was as free as the air, and ice cream aud cake were left in great quantities after the wants of all .had been supplied. The social feature was exceedingly pleasant The children engaged in gamei and the older youug people it promenades and tete-a-ietes. Wit! lanterns hanging amoug the trees aud numbers of bright bonfiree here and youder, the scene was quite picturesque, h. ! Rev. J. N.- Booth Will go to Nash ville. Bro. J. N. Booth has decided to accept the call to Nashville, Tenn. The fHd to which he is called has many attractions a^d is full of promise. He regrets to leave Due Weet and the held he has held for sometime, and -where he has been so happy, and where be has met so many excellent people. We re gret to see him leave the State and this regret is shared by his friends throughputthe rtate. We cordially commeScTN^m to the Nashville br*ihreu audrie broth erhood JUT Tennessee.-ABaptist A GOOD RESULT. Under the operation of the new Pure Food Laws, baking powdete now generally bear on the label?, a statement of the ingredients.': This is of utmoi-t importance be-i cause of the harmful ingredients used in many cases. . Royal Baking Powder is known to be the only baking powder made-' of Royal Grape Cream of Tartar, and this no doubt explains its greatly increased sale here. Careful housekeepers are takiug advantage of the protection which the Laws afford, and are examin ing all the reading matter on the back of the label before adopting any brand, for use in the home. When in place of the wordB Cream of Tartar the words "alum" "aluminum" or "phosphate of I lime" a'ppear among toe ingredi-[ ents, they heed the warning and avoid baking powders containing these substitutes.
