N. Freelaud, a one time prominent j resident of Sumter. A letter which Mr. Louis H. Cary, a cotton buyer of this city, who boarded at the hotel in which the suicide was attempted, has received from a daughter of Captain Freeland, has removed all doubt as to the man's identity. The letter in question was from Mrs. Lillie F. Bradley and she asks Mr. Cary to get her father's watch and umbrella from the pawn shop and send it with the old gentleman's other belongings to her. She says "I want to thank you many times for the attention which you gave my father while he Vas in your town. Papa was always a very proud man. If he had only told us that he was in need of funds we would have been glad to have aided him. He was in Sumter during the latter part of November to see us but did not intimate that he was in need. He told us that he -was on his way to Florida to spend the winter." Mrs. Bradley told Mr. Cary that she would pay the pawn on the watch and the umbrella.?Greenville News. She Did Not Fear Death. An old lady on her seventy-third birthday once said, "I do not mind , getting .old, and I do not fear death, but I live in constant dread of paraly sis.'' "For some time I have been wanting to tell you of the great good your wonderful Sloan's Liniment is doing here," writes Mr. Jamas F. Abernethy, of Rutherford Coljege, N. C. "In fact, all your remedies are doing noble work, but your Liniment beats all. In my eight years' experience with medicine I find none to go ahead of it, having tried it in very many cases. I know of one young man, a brick mason, who suffered from as * partial, yes, almost complete, paralysis of one arm. I got him to use your Liniment, and now he can do as much work as ever, and he sings your praise every day. I get all to Use it I possibly can and know there is great virtue in it. I have helped the sale of your noble remedies about here greatly, and expect to cause many more < to buy them, as I know they can't be beat."

Derrick's Drug Store. - State Tazes Increased. Thursday the ways and means committee at a meeting decided on a levy of mills State tax for ordinary purposes. This is a raise of 1 mill and will, it is estimated, leave a deficit of about $30,000. The levy was fixed with a probability of the appropriation of $24^000 for Winthrop, $6,200 for the new judicial circuit and $10,000 for the raise in salaries of auditors and treasurers being inserted in the appropriation bill. It does not include, however, $12,000 for the Confederate infirmary. It is estimated that the appropriations this year will be nearly $1,600,000, an increase of nearly $200,000 over 1907. The editor of the Memphis, Tenn., "Times" writes: "In my opinion Foley's Honey and Tar is the best remedy for coughs, oolds and lung trouble, and to my own personal knowledge Foley's Honey and Tar has accompiisnea many permanent cures that have been little short of marvellous."

Husbands and Wives. He that has not got a wife is not yet a complete man. One good husband is worth two good wives: for the scarcer they are, the more they are valued. Marry above thy rank and thou wilt get a master. If you want a neat wife, choose her on a Saturday. Marry your son when you will, but your daughter when you can. I know not which live more unnatural lives, obeying husbands or commanding wives. A good wife lost is God's gift lost. Where there is marriage without love, there will be love without marriage. , A house without woman and firelight, is like a body without soul or spirit. Never take a wife until you have a house to put her in. Good wives and good plantations go by good husbands. Bert Barber, of Elton, Wis., says: "1 have only taken four doses of your Kidney and Bladder Pills and they have done for me more than any other medicine has ever done.
