A Humorist in Love. A certain young humorist once violently fell in love with a pretty girl whom he had met for the first time. The strength of his attachment may be guaged by the following letter lie indited to her: "My Dear Miss M.:?Every time I think of you my heart flops up and down like an excited eel in a fish basket. Sensations of unutterable joy caper over it like the young kitten on an outside roof, and thrill tlirough it like broken bottles on the garden wall through the garments of the noctural thief. As a gosling swimmeth in a mud puddle, so I swim in a sea of glory. Visions of ecstatic rapture thicker than the liairs of a blacking brush visit me in my slumbers, and borne on their invisible wings, I reach out to grasp your image like a terrier snapping at a bluebottle fly. "Since the light of your face fell upon my life I sometimes feel as if I could lift myself by my boot jack to the top of the church steeple and pull the bell ropes for morning school. "Day and night you are in my thoughts and whenever I think of you my heart, like a piece of guttapercha, seems stretched across my bosom. "Your hair is like the mane of a chestnut horse powdered with gold, and the brass pins skewered tiirough it fill me with unbounded awe. Your forehead is smoother than the elbow of an old coat, and your eyes are glorious to behold. In their liquid depths I see legions of Cupids bathing like a cohort of ants in an old Wellington boat. When -fi-rn mv mftiilv hrPASt it TWilie U1 iVAA iuv AAAV j A trated my whole anatomy, as a charge of bird shot goes through a ripe apple. "If you cannot reciprocate my thrilling passion, I shall pine away like a poisoned fly, and fall from the flourishing vine of life an untimely branch. And in coming years, when the shadows fall from the hills and the corncake sings his cheerful evening hymn, you, happy in another's love, can come and drop a tear and catch a cold on the last resting place of your affectionate, H." Notice. Notiee :? hereby given that the health of the people of this county is in iminent danger and must, be taken care of. It has been decided that every precaution be taken to preveat prolonged cases of pneumonia, grippe, etc. The best thing to do is to give a good eo"gh mixture a* soon ?s the cough starts. Get MURRAY'S HOREHOUNo, MULLEIN AND TAR. Only 23c. a bottle. At all druggists. The members of Dixie Lodge, No. 52, I. O. O. F., enjoyed a delightful smoker at their lodge room Thursday night. It is rumored that night operations will soon be resumed at the Lexington cotton factory. This means the employment of additional operatives and consequently more money put in circulation hereabouts. Saved From Terrible Death. The family of Mrs. M. JL. tfoDOitt, 01 Bargetown, Tenn., saw her dying and were powerless to save her. The most skillful physicians and every remedy used, failed, while consumption was slowly, but surely taking her life. In this terrible hour Dr. Kings's New Discoveiy for Consumption turned despair into joy. The first bottle brought immediate relief and its continued use completely cured Iter. Its the most certain cure in the world for all throat and lung troubles. Guaranteed bottles 50c. and Si.00. Trial bottles free at the Kaufmann Drug co. The editor ls out this week seeking delinquent subscribers who owe him a dollar or so, Gentle reader, if you owe him anything meet him when he is in your neighborhood and settle up. Mr. Charlie Pennyclare, of Orangeburg, was in town Thursday. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Absolutely Harmless. The fault of giving children medicine containing injurious substances, is sometimes more disastrous than the disease from which they are suffering.

"I stuck to my- engine, although everyjoint ached and'every nerve w<is racked with pain," writes C. W. Bellamy-, a locomotive fireman, of Burlington, Iowa. 'I was weak and pale, without, any appetite and all run down. As I was about to give up. I got a bottle of Elec ^ ^ -x.

' Hold my cotton I h?v? maihd you a check today for 82,000 and am shipping you 50 bales of cotton by the ntx: freight. We farmers believe that we have this fight whipped and are going to hold our cotton until we win or are broke." The above is tbe copy of a telegram received by a cotton factorage firm in Augusta one day last week. The message was in response to a call made for margins by the firm that was carrying the cotton for tbe farmer, and it is an instructive cocument, in view of tbe fact that it displavs that good old American spirit of 177o. aDd which has developed in every subs* queut crisis in the nistory of this country, be that crit-is industrial or political.
