If we sell one bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, we seldom fail I
to sell the same person more, when
it is again needed. Indeed, it has
become the family medicine of this

merits?Jos. E. Harned, Prop.

Tho Woman's Favorite.
The July number of The Delineator
is called the summer Dumber and
contains a variety of authoritative information
on the latest effects in
dress; a choice selection of high class
literary features is presented, and
there is an excellent arrangement of
articles on household topics and other
matter entertaining, instructive and
valuable. The Delineator is the
woman's favorite magazine, and is

Superintendent of Education Mayfield
has named July 2"> to the .*>()th
as the dates for holding the county
teachers' institute at Lexington, and
named Prof. Patterson Wardlaw, of
the South Carolina College, and Superintendent
A. J. Tbaekston, of
Orangeburg, as teachers.
Miss M. Jean Adams was an honor
graduate of the South Carolina College,
being the first woman ever
graduated from that time honored
iustitutiou. Mr. Samuel Jesse Leaphart
is the other graduate from this
county and ranked high in his examinations.
Mr. John AAA Gregory, of the Lick
fork section of the county killed an
immense rattlesnake near his home
about four weeks ago, measuring
four feet six inches and having eleven
rat ties and a but ton making his snakeship
twelve years old. The rattles
are in our possession and Mr. Gregory
has our thanks for them.
S. C. P. Jones, Milesburg, Pa,
writes, "I have used DeAYitt's Little
Early Itisers ever since they were |
introduced here and must say I have
never used any pills in my family
during forty years of house keeping
that gave such satisfactory results I
as a laxative or cathartic." J. E.
Kaufmann.
AVe understand that several sec
tions of the county are visited by an
epidemic of typhoid fever, particularly
so in the Ballentine section.
Among the persons mentioned as
being dangerously ill, we are pained
to hear that of Mr. Pat Shealy. We
hope that the disease by this time is
under complete control -or that the
report is much exagerated.
It is astonishing what a large
stock of family and plantation supplies
is being carried by Piatt, Hook
& Shull of Columbia, but then, when
we come to think of it, it is not so
astonishing after all, for to met the
demand of their numerous customers
they are forced to carry a tremend
ous stock, and' in order to keep it
fresh, they sell at rock bottom prices.
Our thanks are due and are hereby
tendered to Cadet C C. Derrick for
an invitation to attend the commencement
exercises of the South Carolina
Military Academy from June 23 to
the 28th. Cadet Derrick is a Lexington
boy and we are pleased to
notice that he will graduate from
this institution with distinguished
honors, being the salutatorian of his
class.

Valuable to Women.
Especially valuable to women is Browns'
Iron Bitters. Backache vanishes, headache
disappears, strength takes the place of
weakness, and the glow of health readily
conies to the pallid cheek when this won
derful remedy is taken. For sickly children
or overworked men it lias no o<junl. No home
should he without this famotis* remedy.
JB.-jwns'iron Litters is sold l>y all dealers.
Hold Year Wheat.
P. Hall & Pro., are making all
possible haste to have their roller
flour mill completed by the first of
July and are rushing the work merrily
along. They are satisfied that
they will have the mill in complete
working order by that time, and
advise their farmer ftiends to hold j
their wheat until then, that is if j
they want pretty white flour, whose
le^eoing powers have been unimpaired
and which has lost none of its
sweatuess duiing the process of
grinding.

State of South Carolina,
County of Lexington,
Court of General Sessions,
June term. 1808
To the Honorable the Circuit Court
for said county and State.
We, the grand jurors for said
couuty and State, beg leave to make
this, our presentment, at this term of
the court:
We have carefully considered and
passed upon all indictments handed
U9 by the Solicitor and Lave returned
the same-over to the officers of the
court.
We have examined the county jail
and find that it is kept in good condition,
c-xcept that the inmates inform
us that the water tank has not been
kept properly tilled, consequently J
bad drainage arrises therefrom. We,
therefore, recommend that this matter
be looked after at once.
We find the court house is kept in
very good condition, except that the
cover should be repaired at once.
We are glad to be still able to say
that the chain gang is doing good
and substantial work in the county,
both as to roads and bridges.
We have appointed a committee of
three of our body to make a thorough
examination of the records, accounts
iVc , of our county officers and feel
that it is necessary that the committee
should have an expert to assist
them in the matter.
Thanking your H-mor with the j
Solicitor and the officers of the court j
for courtesies shown us during the
? i
term, we beg to submit this as our j
said report.

Will *D3 Completed.
We have it from a reliable source
that the Lutherans have determined
to complete their new church, that is
temporarily at least, to enable that
congregation to worship under their
own vine and tig tree and to receive
the words of everlasting truth front
oh' their own altar. Il is proposed
to build the walls higher, put on a
permanent slate roof and put down
the lluor, and if it is found that it is
impossible to permanently complete
the balance of the wotk, it will be
temporarily finished. The work will
be commenced as soon as tbe licces
sary arrangements can be made, and
will be let to the lowest bidder who
will be required to give a sufficient
bond conditioned npon completing
the work according to specifications.

Ground While Yen Wait.
Messrs. H. ('. Scoflill and Henry
Hice, two large and experienced farmers
of the Cedar creek section,
this year planted large crops of
wheat and have reaped abundant
harvests. They will not pay war
pi ices for flour for some time to
come at least Notwithstanding the
disadvantages and inconveniences
to which they were put to have it
ground into flour, the)' are not disappointed
or discouraged at the re
suit. They brought the wheat to our
excellent miller, Mr. E. J. George
Monday, and while attending court
Mr. George made the biscuit ingredient.
His mill has been thoroughly
overhauled, repaired and put
in good working trim, and he and
his force have been busy for sometime
grinding flour.

An Instructive Entertainment.
Gilbert Waldon, America's greatest
dialect humorist, will give the
people of Lexington o.nd vicinity an
opportunity to hear the wonderful
elocutionary powers of this gifted
Southern reader next Friday evening
in the court house. Mr. "Widden
comes to us bearing testimonials of
a high complimentary character from
lipe scholars, eminent divines and
leading journals of this and other
States. His delineation of negro
character is pre eminently above all
others aod he is an "artist of rare
powers and versatility."
The entertainment will be giveu
under the auspices of the "Woman's
Aid Society of St. Stephen's church,
it-liAtn ATY AVfiMpn will divide
the proceeds of the evening, so tLat
by liberally patronizing it you will
be aiding a worthy and praisewoithy
cause, and we trust that for this reason
there will be a full house on that
evening.
Immediately following the close of
Mr. Walden's program in the court
house, the Woman's Aid Society will
give an enteitainment in the vacant
storehouse of Capt. M. D. Harman,
at which delicious ice cream will be
temptingly served, and this, too,
should be liberal!^ patronized. So
Iff if be done.

The Globe Dry Goods Company of
j Cjlumbia, uuder the efficient and
progressive management of Mr. W.
H. Monckton, who was for years the
manager of one of the largest depirtment
stores in that city, is a
great factor in making times easier
and saving money to the people by
rushing off its tirst class stock of
goods at fourth class pi ices. The
large experience of Mr. Monckton
enables him to know just what the
people need in their every day life,
and where to purchase the necessary
articles to the best advantige, consequently
his store is always packed
and j imtned with bargains in staple
dry goods, notions, domestics plain
and fancy dress goods, trimmings,
in fact anything kept iu stock by a
department store. If our people

visit the Globe Diy Goods establishment
when in Columbia, and inspect
its tremendous stock now on exhibition,
and we are satisfied that its
manager will name such prices as
will be eye openers and will cause
them to change owners without any
parleying. You will find Mr. Monckton
to be a polite, courteous and accommodating
salesman who will see
that you are suited both as to quality,
quantity and price.

Rock Hill, S. C.
! Dear Sirs: The Buggy is excellent. Others have been ordered since
mine caiue, but from San Antonia, Texas. According to what the owners
! say they cost more laid down than mine and there is no comparison in the
i buggies. Your make being fur superior. Yours trulv,
I (REV) JOHN R. EDWARDS.
NOTE?"ROCK HILL''Buggies are made with the greatest care aud from the best
material obtainable, and are warranted as represented Tuey cannot, therefore, be sold
at the price ot "cheap john" stuff ma le hurriedly, painted qnick and throve i together.
\ But the advance in price is so very little above the Western trash that no sensible man
will object to pay it in order to get something he knurs is the best. Sold by all first
class dealers 111 every town and city in the South. When jou need a buggy insist upon
your dealer supply ing you wiih a "ROCK HILL." If he will not do it because the
profit to him is nothing like what it would be on the clapp-trap stuff, write us. We'll
see you g?-t a genuine "HOCK HILL" Buggy at the right price.
