THE undersigned begs leave to call attention to the MERINO ELASTIC FELT GUN WADDING, the only perfectly safe wadding for choke-bore breech-loading snot guns. By the ?roA tku r\f a omn is lessoned. the UJ5U V/* I/UJ9 rw avi iuv? wvk? v* n"~~ - ? , distribution of the shot is more regular, and the range and penetration are greater. Another advantage is that the gun is kept cleaner than when any other wad is used. Try them. They are put up in boxes holding 256 wads and are made in two grades. The price for the first grade is forty cents per box ; the second grade twentyfive cents. The first grade should be used over the powder?the second grade over the shot. The first grade wads are from one-half to threeeights of an inch in thickness, which makes them cheaper than any other wad in the market, as only one of the first grade wads is necessary on the powder, and one of the second grade over the shot, to give the best results. If you use a 12 gauge gun with brass shells, buy No. 9 wads. For paper shells use No. 11 wads. * For guns of __ a different gauge, for brass shells, use a wad three sizes larger than the "Core; "Tbffwper straits; uuc size larger. By this means the gases from the powder will be perfectly confined and the very best results obtained. Sample boxes will be sent by mail on receipt of forty cents for the first grade, and twenty-five cents for the second grade. Address, E. A. SHARRETT3, Secretary, P. O. Box 307, Baltimore, Md. January 12 2 tf PROCLAMATION. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, I Executive Chamber, j WHEREAS information has been received ai this Department that on the second dav of November, A. D. 1886, the GIN HOUSE of W. T. Smarr, in the County of York, was burned, and there being reason to believe that the burning was the act of one JAMES FRANKLIN alias JIM WRIGHT ; Now, therefore, I, Jno. P. Richardson, Governor of the State of South Carolina, in order that justice may be done and the majesty of the law vindicated, do hereby offer a reward of FIFTY DOLLARS for the delivery to the Sheriff of York countv, of the said Jim Franklin alias Jim W right. Said Jim Franklin alias Jim Wright, is about r> feet eight inches in height, weighs about 160 lbs., aged about 3f> years, very black, sharp face and nose with scar on left side of neck about two inches long, made by cut with knife, is slightly lame in right leg and has no upper front teeth. * In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State to be affixed, at Columbia, this [skal.] tenth day of Jauuary, A. I). 1887, and in the one hundred and* twelfth year of the Independence of the United States of America. J. P. RICHARDSON. By the Governor: W. '/. Leitxkr, Secretary of State. January 12 2 It INTER-STATES LIFE ASSOCIATION, STAI'XTON, VA. M. KRSKINE MILLER, President. ('. L. COOKE, Secretary. GEORGE C. JORDAN, General Agent. THE immense amount of Life Insurance carried in tills country makes it of National importance tli.it heads of* families should be able to secure it as cheaply as possible consistent with safety. Especially is this necessary for the millions of men in modem'* circumstances, who must earn their living by hard knocks and in the face of a competition that is becoming keener and sharper every day. t/* i! iu ??/vt Su tiaf worfh r II me Iliaiu aui-c 13 nut ^ ?V ?^. wv v?. rying, and if it is too costly, the men who most need it cannot carry it all. How to make it both safe and cheap is the problem of the dav, and he who a<dves it will have done a great and patriotic service for his fellow men. The Old Lino Companies are certainly safe when honestly managed, but their rates are so high, that only the rich can afford to carry such an amount as would provide for a family, while the great mass of men, and those, too, whose families most need protection, are compelled to go without insurance, or seek it in the assessment companies or secret orders. The fact that these cheaper institutions are to-day furnishing more insurance than all the Old Line companies combined, shows how eager are the mass of citizens for insurance that is within reach of their mean . While these orders and corporations are furnishing insurance cheap euough, yet, at best, they can only be looked upon as temporary expedients and not altogether satisfactory. But it is plain, that somewhere between the old line and assessment plans there must be a middle ground, which is not onlv safe, but jn.it and fair to all parties. THE INTER-STATES LIFE ASSOCIATION of Staunton, Va., has sought earnestly and honestly to find this middle ground. In "this search they have, at large expense, consulted and employed the foremost actuaries and insurance experts in this country, and upon their recommendation have adopted a line of rates which is entirely safe, and yet, is in the reach of every thrifty and industrious man who desires to protect his family against his death. To ascertain this safe rate, they added to the ?c/?aideathcostexperienced by theold liuecompaniesan ample reserve, and then a reasonable amount for expenses and profits, but so limited as to compel economical management. So plain and fair and popular are its methods that over, three millions of business was done in the tirat eight months work. Its rates are fixedt and must be paid, deaths or no deaths, butaretHvided into two, four, or six payments a year, as may best suit the convenience of the applicant.

"Cyclone Spark Arrester," and find it a irst-class arrangement. I first used it on a 6 lorse power with a 12-inch stack, and found that i bunch of lint cotton held over the stack could lotbe fired with the greatest speed I could give he engine while threshing. Tnen, this Fall, I )ought an 8 horse power Tanner & Delaney engine vith a 9-inch stack, and when ginning at night I vas unable to stir the fire in the furnace enongh o make a spark go out of the stack. Finding hat I needed more draught, you remember you inaned the smoke-stack wider and put on a 12 nch saddle aiul stack. That gives "me draught mough to lift water 75 feet, to feed the boiler and vork the gin all at the safhe time, and to blow off team at the pop-valve at 100 pounds. I have finned some half dozen bales of cotton after light, and as far as any tire from the stack is to ie seen, you would not know there was any near t. On one occasion, the night was so dark that mly the outline of the stack could be traced rotn the side of the engine room, and yet there vas no sign of sparks from the top of the stack. ' have had the fire stirred upside down and I ind that the cinders getting through come out ilack and dead, while the coals fall back drownid out and finally burn to ashes, in the smoke iox. I would not sell mine for 8100, if I could lot get another like it. While a half dozen ginlouses around me have been on fire during the Iry weather, mine has escaped. I, therefore, jive you an unqualified endorsement of my 'Cyclone Spark Arrester." I think I can sell a talf dozen around here. Very respectfully, J. M. GALLOWAY, For the Spark Arrester, or any information lertaining thereto, apply to either (J. J. HOKE, or T. S. JEFFERYS, Yorkville, S. C. C. G. PARISH. ro OUR FRIENDS WE SEND GREETING.

S MORRISO^. PRESERVEYOUR SIGHT! THERE is nothing in the world more precious. The eye above all other Organs displays the infinite power of the Creator. It is the most delicate Organ, the preservation of which requires the greatest care. Too often man, naturally careless, neglects it and onlv perceives his folly when it is too late and nothing is left to him but bitter regret. Therefore, if an article destined to F>reserve and strengthen an organ of such absoute necessity, can be obtained, it should be regarded as a great blessing.
