"TJsed To Be."
There is no map that shows us where
Its hills laugh at the sky;
Ko map?or we would journey there
Where flowered, valleys lie.
The Little Land of Used-to-be?
A fancied land, forsooth,
Which-has for mete and boundry
The dim frontier of the youth.
(). little Land of Used-to-be.
Your roses were so red !
Your skies were azure seas where ships
went sailing overhead.
A land of laughter and of song.
Where bees contented croons
Kept time with swaying poppy blooms
through summer afternoons,
We seek the pathway to that land.
Pn*- Co,.!.- -it nl] 1T1 vain.
Sometimes the rain seems like a baud
That taps upon the pane
And lulls us softly into sleep
Blent with j^revery
Wherein our triad hearts find and keep
The Land of Used-to-be.
O, little Land of Used-to-be,
So far, and fair and faint,
Whence mellow songs come murmuring
in accents old and quaint!
Your trees were all so broad and high
And prodigal of shade
Wherein rhe scattered sunshine in mosaics
leaped and played.
Ofttimes we look to where it li-. <?
For this we know full well,
Its distant glamour never dies;
We never lose the spell.
All, would that we might rise and go
Down paths of memory
And find the land we used to know.
The Land of Used-to-be!
O, little Land of Used-to-be,
What treasures do you hide!
The singing streams that romped and ran
through meadows green and wide;
The birds whose songs, it seemed to us,
Were echoes of our glee?

Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea
After Ten Years of Suffering.'
"I wish to say a few words in praise
of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and ,
Diarrhoea Remedy," says Mrs. Mattie ,
Burge, of Martinsville, Ya. "I suffered
from chronic diarrhoea for ten years and '
during that time tried various medicines 1
without obtaining any permanent relief. I
Last summer one of my children was |
taken with cholera morbus, and I pro- 1
cured a bottle of this remedy. Only two j
doses were required to give her entire
relief. I then decided to try the medicine
myself, and did not use all of one '
bottle before I was well and I have *
never since been troubled with that
complaint. One cannot say too much in
favor of that wonderful medicine."
This remedy is for sale by The Kaufmann

One Lady's Recommendation
Sold Fifty Boxes of Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets.
I have, I believe, sold fifty boxes of
Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tabletf
on the recommendation of one lady
here, who first bought a box of them
about a year ago. She never tires of
telling her neighbors and friends about
the good qualities of these Tablets.?P.

The pleasant purgative effect of these
Tablets makes them a favorite with
ladies everywhere. For sale by The

Brutally Tortured.
A case came to light that for persistent
and unmerciful torture has perhaps
never been equaled. Joe Golobiek. of
Colusa, Cal., writes: 44For 15 years 1
endured insufferable pain from Rheumatism
and nothing relieved me though
I tried everything known. I came
across Electric iiitters and its the greatest
medicine on earth for that trouble.
A few lx>ttles of if completely cured
me." Just as good for Liver and Kidney

A Bashful Young1 Man.
Wiregrass Blade.
One of our town dudes, who is
rather bashful, aDd is "sparking" a
young lady a few miles from town
called a few afternoons ago to spend
the evening with her. While there
it commenced raining and the giri's
father asked him to remain over
night. The next morning when be
was invited to a seat at the breakfast
table he reluctantly accepted. He
was very nervous an agitated.
He set opposite the mirror and
discovered that he had forgotten to
comb his hair. Then he dropped bis
fork on the floor and as he stooped to
pick it up he upset his ccffee. Matters
went from bad to worse, until
% 9
nnaiiy tne young man quit eatiDg auu
put his hands under the table. The
loose end of the tablecloth was lying
in bis lap and when he touched it he
turned pale. He thought it was his
shirt and thet in his nervous excitement
while dressing he hed forgotten
to put the garment inside his
trousers. This accounted for the
smiles and embarrassment. There
was no time to lose. He hurriedly
stuffed the supposed shirt inside his
trousers. Two minutes later when
the family arose from the table there
was a crash. The dishes lay in a
broken mass on the floor. The young
man pulled three feet of tablecloth
out of his breeches and lied through
the door. He is now hidiDg, t.nd the
girl is looking for a less bashful
lover, who can tell his shirttail from
a tablecloth.
Tobacco Heart.
Some one has said that it is estimated
that about twenty per cent, cf
the young men who recently applied
to enter the United States naval academy
have failed in the physical test
and the failure was largely due to the
use of tobacco resulting in the irregular
beating of the heart. We believe
it has not been so very long ago
when grog and tobacco were articles
of ration furnished by the gcvarnment
to the Davy.
The Campaign.
The State campaign is drawning
its slow length aloDg. Not much
interests in the meeting is being
manifested by either the candidates
or the people. The Governor
and the rest of the State officers,
having no opposition, have "vamosed
the ranch" and retumed'tothe bosom
their familee, their club3 and to
their official duties content to let well
enough alone and the people may
root bog, or die," it matters not
with which so long as the "piper is
paid. This indifference on the part
}f people arises^not so much from
ihe brilliancy and and popularity of
the present State administration as it
3oes from the time honored Democratic
custom of giviDg the Governor
and his "cabinet" | we are becoming
to be quite aristocratic in our views
and sentiments since the days when
Senator Tillman first set in the gubernatorial
chaii] two terras when
an encumbent desires to succeed himself.
Night "Was Her Terror.
"I would cough nearly all night long,"
writes Mrs. Chas. Applegate, of Alexandria.
Ind., "and could hardly get any |
sleep. I had consumption so bad that
if I walked a block I would cough fright- J
fully and spit blood, but, when all other
medicines failed, three .$1.00 bottles of
Dr. King's New Discovery wholly cured
me and 1 gained 08 pounds." its absolutely
guaranteed to cure Coughs, Colds,
La Grippe, Bronchitis and all Throat
and Lung Troubles. Price 50c. and
?1.00. Trial bottles free at The Kanf- !
maim Drug Go's., drug store.
On account of leasons satisfactory
to himself and in which the public
has no interests, Senator Mower, of
Newberry, has declined to otand for
reelection. Mr. Arthur Kibler,
former Representative, will fight
Hon. Cole L Blease for the plum.

Stats College Expanding.
There is a growing sentiment at
the South Carolina College to restrict
the age of admission of students to
1G. The minimum age is now 15,
but it is thought with tbe better advantages
cffored in recent years by
the schools of tbe State there is no
good reason to encourage a young
man to leave home before he is 1G.
It is argued that this raising of i
the age requirements is especially !
a proper move on the part of the
j South Carolina College, whether or :
not it should be followed by other
colleges in this State, since the South
Carolina College should seek more
and more to rai3e its standard and
develop into a university of recognized
leadership and headship in the
State. The most practical way to
raise the standard is to raise the age
of admission and, with mature students,
accomplish more work each
year.
As some progress towards the
university idea, it may be noted that
th6 South Carolina College has already
developed two professional
schools of acknowledged standing,
the law school and the normal school.
The enrollment in the former during
the last session was 24, in the latter
38, besides ten teachers who took

designed specially to meet the needs
of teachers of short term schools
who will avail themselves of six
weeks or two months of college work.
Hunting fcr a Hovr.
London, July 6.?The Associated
Press learns from a high British
source that exchanges of views are
takiDg place between America and
Great Briiian with respect to Thibet.
BeiDg a dependency of Chine, the
fate of Thibet is of considerable importance,
because its acquisition by
any Power would mean a violation of
the principle^ of the integrity of China,
which is the keynote of Secretary
Hay's far Eisterc. policy, to which
Great Britain has given adherence.
Mr. Hay, it is believed, thrcugb Ambassador
Choate, has delicately presented
the possible bearing of the
British military procedure on Chinese
integrity. It is understood that the
British Government frankly disavow
ed any ulterior purpose regarding
Thibetan territory, reiterating that
it has no intention to permanently
occupy Thibet.

Making It Personal.
"Did you ever long for deathV'
asked the soulful, dyspeptic young
man of the practical young woman.
It was the fourth long call he had
made that week, and she was sleepy.
"Whose death do you mean"?" she
asked in a dry discouraging toDe.
