get married in spite of famine, fire, pes- 2

says Mr. J. S. Egleston, of Maple Landing.

The Key
That Unlocks the Door to Long
Living.
Tim men of eighty-five and ninety
rears of age are not the rotund well
fed. but thin, spare men who live on a
-lender diet. Be as careful as ho will,
liowevor, a man past middle age. will
xrcasionaily eat too much or of some
article of food not suited to his constitution,
and will need ado.se of Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets to
cleanse and invigorate his stomach and
regulate his liver and bowels. When
this is done there is no reason why the
average man should not live to old age.

Selling Their Cotton.
Reports from various parts of the
state indicate that the farmers are sellng
their cotton rapidly instead of holdng
it as advised by the committee of
'armers in a recent address to t he tieople.

as to the price and as a rule the turners
wish to get rid of the staple before
he holidays are over. An inquiry.
lowevtT, conducted by a New York
laptr with fanners throughout this
state develops that the large majority
>f the planters of cotton will reduce the
icreage next year.
