They date back to the time when hit-or-miss methods of treatment prevailed. Most condition powders aim at every thing and hit uothing. BLUE GRASS CONDITION POWDER is a remedy you can rely upon to improve tho condition of all kinds of stock. It is a prompt tonio. It purifies tho blood; it stimulates tho kidnoys and liver to honlthy activity. Far better in every way than ordinary con dition powders. PRICE 260. AT Lunney's Drug Store, Yellow Front. Seneca, H.

The Cherry-Gray Wedding-Other Maliers ot Interest in Our Sister Town. Seneca, April 24.-Frost this IDorniin;! On next Sabbath, which will be the fifth Sabbath of the month, the usual eleven o'clock services will be hold in the Episcopal church. There will bo no preaching elsewhere. Tho friends of tho Hov. C. S. Blackburn regret the co.itiuued unsatisfactory state of his health. During his indisposition, however, the pulpit of the Baptist church has been acceptably filled by Mr. George Judd, who has been visiting in the pas tor's family for some weeks. We regret exceedingly to ohroniclo tho death of Miss Ellen, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mri. Leo Carpenter, of Green ville. The dentil of this fair young girl is peculiarly sa I. inasmuch as she'had just reached thc interesting period of young womanhood, and gave promise to a useful, brilliant life. The young girl was well known in Seneca, having visited frequently ber relativos here. Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Hunter, M?BS Carrio Hunter, .Major and Mrs. B. F. Sloan are in Green ville iu attendance upon tho sad funoral riten which occur to-day. Mrs. Lillie Tribblo is in An dei non, where sho will witness the marriage of her sister. MIES Mittie Tribblo, of that city, to Mr. Dickson, of Florida, which occurs to-day at tho bride's homo, in Anderson. Mrs. Hopkins, of Pendleton, is visiting her son, Frank Hopkins, in Seneca. Henry L. Geruer, of Retreat, spent last Saturday night in Seneca and took in the show. J. S. Arrington has taken the contract for the building of Mrs. C. V. McCarey's cew residence and begins work to-day. The house will be ono of modern con struction, a two story, eight room build ing, and is built after one of Barber & KIUU'B favorite plans. Tho workman ship will be of the best, tho building material having boen selected by the contractor, who, it goes without saying, will put up a first-class job. Tho house will be a distinct ornament to that part of town. Seneca's population grows apaco, and not on account of any foreign olomout cither. In the last nine days olovon young Americans have, soon tho light of day in Seneca, this list not including tho full birth rate, as your correspondent is reliably informed that "there aro othors" uot included in tho nbovo. Dr. E. A. Hines, of Seneoa, has boon requested to read a paper before tho State Medical Association of North Caro lina, which meets in Charlotte in May. This is a distinct compliment to tho Doc tor, but one which uoverthelosB is most deserving and which no doubt ho will carry gracefully. Tho residence of F. S. Hollomnn is un der good headway and the music of the hammer and saw is highly gratifying to the neighbors in these parts, who are witnessing the 'progress of the work. The house is a most attractive ono, and when finished will have seven rooms, with gable roof, and broad spacious piazzas. The lot is one of the most de sirable in town and will naturally afford a pretty sotting for this attractive now homo. W. M. Propst has begun tho erootion ^of bis new home on Fair Play street. We understand that there will be others to follow this soon. Th? continued cool w??ther retards 1 the grow, ' n* vegotatiou aud disheartens our early juers.

Behool a delightful outing last Saturday, where they, with a bevy of ?>retty girlB, picuicked at cold springs.

A unique plan f outer tainment was provided by the hostess, it which tho members aud guests were re quired to play "going to school." QUOB tions wero given by the hostess upoi slips of paper rangiug al) tho way fron the primary department through tin collegiate com se, only a few for each de p.rtmont, however, and a lively oontes ensued. Mrs. Elias Earle received th prize, she having answered correct ly al of the quest ions. Delicious refreshment were served and a charming affair is i the memory of all who were so fortunat as to be present. We' would suggest to the Sunda school superintendents or the good off cers who have charge of the music i our Sunday schools, that they road ove the words of the little songs they teac tho children from timo to time, so tba they will catch them and understand, no only tho words, but tho sentiment of th songs. For instaucn, ono dear littl creature was beard to sing a fow day ago, "Jesus, I'm a rockiu' in a woar laud." which is but a sample of th many beautiful songs which are thu porvorted by those innocent little onei Upon remonstrating with tho oforesat little offender we wore told that "that I tho way Mr. D- sinus it!" It is thought that a number of our cit ens will attend tho sitting of the Gem ral Assembly in Greenville in May. Th is an opportunity to see this body, whic probably is one of the flnost roligioi gatherings iu the world. Tho augui and dignified deliberations of tho bod aro impressive to a dogree, while amor tho members composing it are four some, of the most scholarly men of th or any other country, including not on tho very beBt of the ministerial profe sion, but men who occupy high soci and political position, including mer hers, Uuited States Senators, Govorno Of Slates, etc. Beginning May tho third, the manag mont of the Opera House hore has s outed the Three Pickerts, who with strong company of twelvo mombers w open a three nights engagement hoi The company has played a week's o gagement in Andorson and Greenvil and comes highly recommended by the cities.

A bit of in teresting history confers in the fact that the brido wore during the ceremony a bracelet of rare workmanship, which has been used on similar occasions for four generations. This, with the elegant broaob, a gift from tho groom, being tho only ornaments worn. After the ceremony an olaborato h?lfet luucheon was served in the dining room, tho decorations of which wore elegant in their simplicity, red carnations shedding their delicate perfume from many vases, used effectively on the bride's table, tho mantle, etc., while tho soft glow from shat :d candelabra was effective.
