at the lime. While in Columbia the
other day, Mr. Williams told a reporter
~ for the Columbia State that the statement
was true. The beer, he claims,
had been seut to bim as a sample, and
bad been at the depot for a week or
more without his knowledge. Governor
Evans happened to learn of the
fact and had the beer seized. Mr. Williams
claims that the governor was
moved in the matter altogether by personal
feeliug, for, says Mr. Williams,
the governor has time and again received
presents of that kind, and he
has also bad released packages belonging
to bis frieuds that bad been seized
by constables. Mr. Williams was considerably
wrought up over the matter.

Virginia 20; North Carolina 90:
Georgia 90; Florida 100; Alabama 93;
Mississippi 92 ; Louisiana 95; Texas 85;
Arkansas 84 ; Tennessee 73.
The reports of correspondents in regard
to contemplated acreage, indicates
a considerable increase over the
area planted last year. The percentages
^ by Slates are as follows :
Virginia 107 ; North Carolina 117 ;
^ South Carolina 111; Georgia 113; Florida
143; Alabama 111; Mississippi 110;
Louisiana 109 ; Texas HQ; Arkansas
123 ; Tennessee 127; Indian Territory
159; Missouri 141.
Tbe average for the country is 114.8.

PECULIARLY PERTINENT PARAGRAPHS.
High Endorsement.
Dr. George Walker, late of this place,
now first assistant on the medical staff of
the Johns Hopkins hospital, Baltimore,
says: "I have critically examined the
formula of the preparation known as
Campbell's Anti-Ferment, and I find that
it is a scientific combination of the best
drugs in the Materia Medica for the various
diseases that have their origin in the
stomach and bowels and other troubles
resulting from a derangement of them.
% The above, of course, is a theoretical opinion
of the formula of Anti-Ferment; but
in practice I find that the theory holds
good, for in all cases in which I have
used it I have had most satisfactory
results.
What Makes a Baby Cry.
There are but two things that make an
infant cry?pain and hunger. Xinetynine
one-hundredths of the pain they suf
fer is brought on by indigestion. The
colic they have is caused by indigestion.
The wind or gas that fills up the stomach
and causes it to distend to the point of
hurting, is the result of indigestion. So
certain, no man on earth can dispute it.
Now the remedy. Anti-Ferment? Yes,
\nti-Ferment will core them every time.
"A day old tonight baoy" can take it with
j as perfect safety as it can its mother's
/ milk. It contains no opium, no narcotic
of any kind. It puts a baby to sleep because
it makes hun feel good and he has
nothing else to do. We can prove this by
every mother who used it.
Jno. C. Kuykendal.
"We Speak What We Do Know
And testify that we have seen," and can
prove that you don't want, you don't need
anything but Anti-Ferment properly administered
in the treatment of uiarrhtea,
k dysentery, the summer complaints of
children and all disorders of the stomach
V and bowels. The remedv is sale, speedy,
W certain. Don't get scared. Don't ask any
advice. Follow the direction on the bottle
and the fuller directions on the wrapper
around the bottle. The results are always
most gratifying. Jno. C. Kuykendal.
S2&*
fecial goiires.
Another High Approval.
Having examined the formula of Campbell's
Anti-Ferment, I pronounce it a
most efficient remedy for indigestion and
bowel troubles. W. M. Love, M. D.

A COOL STATEMENT.
IT has been stated by some" meddlesome
individual that owing to the fact
that I had a monopoly of the ICE business
in Yorkville that I was charging 2
cents a pound, when the fact of the case
is that I did not retail ICE at all; but
furnished it to the soda fountains and
other retail dealers at 65 cents per hundred
and to others who only bought a
block, occasionally, Icbarged one cent per
pound. I did not retail ICE for the reason
that I thought my retail customers should
be protected, and now since my motives
have been, possibly, purposely miscon
strued, and I having bought my IOE
cheaper than heretofore, have decided to
retail ICE at j of a cent per pound, and
sell any amount from ONE POUND UP.
I will furnish ICE to customers who will
obligate themselves to use 100 pounds a
day, at 50 cents a hundred. Send me
your orders. Remember that the retail
price is only | of a cent.

ITS GROWING!
ITS APPRECIATED!
YOU probably don't understand the
above four lines, so an explanation is
in order. First, we have "On a boom !"
Well, that simply means that I have ICE,
and the people realize that it is about 00
per cent, cheaper than they have been
paying for ice that wasn't aqy colder. 2d.
"It's humming!" simply means that as
the people can buy ice from me at I cent a
pound, they buy from me. 3d. "It's growing!"
Yes/it surely is growing daily and
I certainly thank you for your patronage
and hope that you will continue to get
your ICE l'rom me. 4th, "It's appreciated
!" simply means that the people of
