OBITUARY. j Died?In York county, on Decemfrec-jj/18S6, Mrs. ALICE E., wife of Mr. William ^Jotfns,"' aged 16 years 4 months and 8 days. Near Clover, on December 8,1886, BLAIR Mc- ( KEE, youngest son of Mr. W. D. and Mrs. Jane L. Moore, aged 4 months and 14 days. On the 3Wh of November, 1886, little JOHN / LEE GOOD, aged 12 years 8 months and 12 days, ? died at his father's home in Bullock's Creek, S. C. Suddenly he fell by the hand of assassins. Ho left his home about sunset on some boyish Siuest. In a few minutes afterwards his screams : br help were heard; but ere assistance could reach him the brutal deed was done, and the murderer fled. Insensible he was borne.back to his grief-stricken pa rente, and among loved ones and friends powerless to help, he breathed his last at 9.35 P. M. Sudden was the summons; but little Lee, as we firmly beiieve, was fully prepared. He had given his young heart to Jesus, and on SeptemL - (W1L I.?4 i.1 t. ?4.

His snort life proved him sincere?that mere profession did not satisfy him, but that he must 1 be in earnest "about his Father's business." His beautiful young life, though so short, has not been in vain. Already rich fruit has been garnered from his life, his prayers and his death, k . - Many are the-prayers, and deep the sympathy that go out to the stricken parents, who, thus for, have been wonderfully sustained under their : terrible bereavement by the religion of that Jesus whom they serve, and taught their young son to love.

I need it now worse than I ever did in all my life. Then why will you, every time you see me, say * I WILL PAY YOU SOON ? I cannot pay my debts that way. Our Northern creditors will not accept such promises from us from day to-day. If the people could appreciate the merchant's condition, I know they would be more prompt.

MORTAR NOTES. 11 ! iTj~jY tjr-4-r^^-?i*??A F "RAZORS IN THE AIR." DID you ever hear of a Razor that was war- ? ranted to shave you comfortably for 10 F years and not in that time requiro honing or ? grinding? Xo, don't suppose you everdreamed ^ of such a thing, but it is true nevertheless. P These Razors, forjwhich we have the agency, are C( tempered under a new secret process of oil tempering called the "Electric." "VVe are told that A th'is new process is so trying to the blades of the u Razors, that an average of only 4 perfect blades j. to the dozen are secured. This number having j "passed through the fire" are ready for the extraordinary guarantee of the manufacturers. Should any one of these Razors sold by us branded "Electric," prove unsatisfactory we will J? cheerfully refund the PRICE PAID FOR IT. The Gentleman is in Error. We heard a few days since of some one remarking that there wasn't a decent pocket knife ~ to be had in the town. The gentleman's in error. We have an elegant line of fine pocket cutlerv. AND THAT'S NOT ALL. A If the blades of every knife sold by us branded Electric are not perfect in temper under the -? fair and ordinary uses of a knife, it may be re- j turned to us ana we will refund the price paid for it. r GET IT AIY WAY. We have just the thing for a Chistmas present p to your familv Physician?a pocket knire made ? expressly for hoctors. Unique and indespenasble. Present it to him for skilled and faithful services night and day at the bed-side of your ? sick ones. If you have had no need of his ser- ? vices give it to him as a thanks offering for ex- j' emption from sickness. 11 JNO. C. KUYKENDAL.
