Laugh and the World Laughs
With You.

It is a reproach, perhaps, to the charity of man;
kind, but none the less true, that the man who is
DOWN finds the number of real friends painfully
diminished.
Against this human weakness, and offsetting it to
a considerable extent, is the tendency of sucessful
j people to lend moral and material assistance to those
who show themselves worthy of it
A manifest determinaton to push to the front develops
a surprising number of people who will help in
the pushing. The bank connection is the touch of material
nature which makes the commercial world kin.
I The customers of this bank find in each other and in the officers
J of the institution moral and financial help which is pushing them
. ;1 * to the front whether they will or no. A small deposit will bring
I yon Into this little world where men and women laugh with each
j other in their successes.

I Good Roads Train
Here Tomorrow.
The Southern Railway's special
"Road Improvement Train" now touriDg
the South in the interests of the
good road8 movement will be in Lexington
tojnorrow, September 38, at 10
a. m., to give a demonstration on the
importance of good roads and how to
build them and keep them in repair.
With exhibits, photographs, working
models and the aid of a stereopticon,
two road bnilding experts of the
United States Department of Agriculture,
L. E. Boykin and M. B. Worrell,
assisted by W. J. Hurlbut, of the
Land and Industrial Department of
the Southern Railway, will conduct
free lectures which are sure to be of
interest to the person at a loss how to
improve his road. E. D. Baker, of
the American Association for Highway
Improvement, is a member of
the party.
The train consists of two demonstration
coaches and a sleeper for the use
of the men in charge. One oar is fitted
up as a lecture room ana is provided
with stereopticon equipment. Views
covering every phase of the good
roads movement are shown daring the
lectures, lending point and interest to
the subjeot discussed. The second car
is filled with enlarged photographs,
exhibits of different road material and
working models, which are shown in
actual operation, teaching the visitor
not only what materials are best to
use in the building or improvement or
a road but how the road is built and
kept in repair at the smallest necessary
cost.
The Southern Railway, believing
t.haf. th? nonsfcrnfition of srood roads
will result in great benefit to the people
of the South whose interests it
considers identical with its own, is
sending this train out oyer its entire
system in order that the people may
realize the tull economic value of the
movement at the same time affording
valuable instruction in the building 01
roads. The entire expense of the campaign,
which embraces the whole
South, is being borne by the Southern
Railway and affiliated lines.
The train has received a most cordial
welcome m its tour -through Alabama,
Mississippi, Tennessee, North
Carolina, Virginia and portions ot
South Carolina, the people on all sides
turning out in large number and showing
an appreciative interest in the lectures
and exhibit.
' Those in charge of the train extend
a cordial welcome to the citizens 01
this section to attend the meeting at
the train.
Orphanage Work Day.
For the last few years the various
orphanages of the State have united
in asking the good people of the State
to give the proceeds of one days labor
to the orphans. The last Saturday in
September has been set apart as
"Work Day?*r and all, both grown
people and children, who feel interested
in helping the orphans, are asked
to give that day's labor or income to
the orphanage of their choice. There
are about 250 orphans at Thornwell
Orphanage, (Presbyterian) Clinton, S.
0.; almost as many at Oonnie Maxwell,
(Baptist) Greenwood, S. 0.; 225
at Epworth OrpUanage, (Methodist)
Columbia, S. C.; 60 at the Chnroh
Home, (Episcopal) Yorkvilie, S. 0.
Thtse orphan children are beiug
clothed, fed and educated entirely by
the gifts of the people, and it is earnestly
hoped that a liberal response will
be made to this appeal. Let none fail
to send the wages or income of one
day's labor to the orphanage of their
choice. Make remittances by oheck,
postoffice money order or by express
to either of the four orphanages named
below.

Mr. T. H. Rawl and Miss Lina Leapheart
Wedded on Friday.
Superstitions have no terrors for
Dan Onpid, that little god of love,
who moves in a mysterious way his
wonders to perform. This fact was
demonstrated on Friday when Mr. T.
H. Rawl and Miss Lina Leaphart were
married in the office of the Judge of
Probate, the ceremony being performed
by Ex-Senator W. H. Sharpe, in
the presence of a large assemblage.
When the news was whispered from
one to another that the popular "old
bachelor" was about to get married
the crowd began to gather, and in a
short while the hallway of the Oonrt
House was filled to overflowing with
the friends of the f^oom. The marriage
was to have been performed by
F. E. Dreher, Esq., a life-long friend
of Mr. Bawl, bnt that gentleman being
a little late, Cupid could not wait
longer and Ex-Senator Sharpe, who
happened to be walking down the hall
of the Oonrt Honse, was called upon
to tie the knot.
The bride is a daughter of W. A.
Leaphart and is popular in the community
where she is known. The
groom is one of the most progressive
farmers of the Rocky Well section,
and is well known throughout the j
county.
After receiving the congratulations
of a large number of friends, the happy
couple departed for their home
eight miles above Lexington.
"Pardon Me."
According to Congressman Byrnes, ]
of South Carolina, says Leslie's Weekly,
Governor Blease recently visited
the penitentiary in Columbia. As he .
was leaving, a convict accidentally
scumbled over the chief executive's
foot. "Pardon me, Governor," the
prisoner murmured. "I can't do it today,"
Mr. Blease is said to have answered,
"but I will attend to it the
first thing in the morning."

Atlanta, Ga., September 23.?Former
Governor Joseph M. Brown, who was
defeated for re-election by Governor
Hoke Smith, tonight announced h s
candidaoy for the Governorship, to be
made vacant when Governor Smith
resigns next month to assume his duties
as United States Senator. This
makes three candidates in the field,
the others being Judge B. B. Russell
and J. Pope Brown.
In making his announcement, ExGovernor
Brown states:
"Believing as I always have that
your highest office would be protected
in the dignity that inherently attaches
to it, I have till this date declined to
make aoy statement as to candidacy
to fill any part of a term to which you
have elected another. But as Governor
Smith has made definite declaration
of his intention to resign, I now
feel it my duty to respond to the calls
of thousands of my friends, and of
many of our other fellow citizens in
every part of the State, who have for merly
opposed me."

James R, Thompson, M. D., Noted Physician Writes in American
Journal ol Health, N. Y., Regarding the Great Merits of
Dr. Hilton's Life for the Liver anil Kidneys
"We do not hesitate to bestow words of commendation on such specifics
as nave shown on actual trial before our hygienic staff that they are remedies
of undoubted therapeutic virtue. A medicine which fulfilled our
most exacting demands in this respect and one which therefore we feel
justified in recommending to our readers, is 'Life tor the Liver and Kidneys.
' It has demonstrated to us so conclusively as to leave no room for
doubt,even on the part of the m ist skeptical that it is a thorough curative
agent in all cases of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Constipation, Billiousnees,
Brlght's Disease, Dropsy, Gravel, Rheumatism and all Disorders arising
from a oiseased condition of the Liver, Kidneys and Urinary Organs. A
representative was sent from our office to collect testimony in regard to
"Life for the Liver and Kidneys.,, those who had used the remedy for the
maladies in which it claims to bring relief were interrogated in regard to
the effect it had exercised in their own cases. Every parson who was visited
and qnestioned with respect to "Dr. Hilton's Life for the Liver and
Kidneys," replied that he had found in it a most efficacious cure. This
fact was ascertained to be true not only in cases of ordinary severity, but
even in those instances which had successfully withstood the skill of physicians
as well as the curative powers of other proprietary remedies."
"Dr. Hilton's Life for the Liver and Kidneys" is a vegetable compound,
vthich for over 30 years has been recognized and recommended as the
most valuable remedy of its kind. If you are a sufferer from any of the
above mentioned Ills, begin taking it at once. You'll soon be on the
royal road to health.
