?*=?- The Dog Question. A correspondent of the Fairfield News and Herald raises a cry, a Tegular howl, against the dogs. His hog sad cattle food, prepared at night, was stolen by these half starved animals, and he thought he would take the dog census ot his neighborhood. Within one mile of p Juff-abode,- he found fifty-three; eight being owned by whites and forty-seven by colored people. He then estimates the dogs of the County at ten thousand; ?and, at. the lowest living estimate, the' ? amount of bread, or its equivalent, con? sumed by them is equal to 65,000 bushels of corn. This corn would raise 750,000 pounds of pork, or enough for 5,000 people;. In Spartanburg County, with its 42, 000 inhabitants, there are at least 10,000 dogs that are just as expensive as those of Fairfield, but one might as well at? tempt to deprive a man of the right to vote as to restrict him in the number of dogs he may- own. The man fond of blooded-dogs will have bis setters and pointers and they are about as destruct? ive as the bob-tailed, yellow curs of the "nigger." Then the fox hunter must have his hounds and they make a pretty broad road through the cotton field when they start a fox or rabbit. Dogs are very much like people, they are not always under the best command. In fact we have seldom seen dogs much superior to their owners. It is hard for a dog; to rise above its raising. The dogs of aristocratic owners will kill sheep and fowls and commit other genteel depreda? tions that your yellow-eyed, slab-sided mongrel would not dream of. There are certainly too many dogs in ourGodnty, too many of all sorts, and they are not properly controlled. They consume too much food in proportion to ?? the benefits they bring, unless you count the pleasure of owning a dog amongst , the benefits. That is beyond price. ' There is nothing superior to it, unless it be the owning of five or six dogs. The supreme happiness of the poor man, ^whether white or black, that is the owner of about five poor, raw-boned, mangy dogs, no two alike in any: way, is beyond human calculation. The pleas? ures of the fox chase sink into a sombre .and funeral procession, when you com? pare it with a half dozen negroes with about eighteen dogs, of all.degrees, in hot pursuit after- "molly cotton tail." . That's genuine fun. Legislators may discuss the dog and plead for his extermination; doctors may hold up, the. terrors of hydrophobia before people; old women may complain of their eggs being sucked by "nasty, trifling hounds," but the dog is here and he is going to stay. The promise or prophecy is that the poor will always be with -s, and wherever you see the poor man the dog is. not far away. Those who raise so many objections to dogs always mean their neighbor's curs. No man ever acknowledged that he owned a sheep killing, egg sucking whelp. His dogs are always perfect. . As the dog is going to stay, the best thing will be to improve bis morals. To do this the owners must set them a- good example. Dogs have lots;' of sense and they understand more than they get credit for. When a smart pointer hears his mistress abusing and back-bitiog her neighbor, he thinks it his bounden duty to slip across and break up the hen's nestB or kill some of the young fowls of this bad neighbor. The dog is just car? rying out the thoughts of the owner. The black mouthed cur enters into all his master's prejudices and animosities. Not being able to talk and too much of a dog to back-bite, he takes his spite out in killing sheep or worrying hogs. A good example would wonderfully im? prove the doge.?Spartanburg Spartan. Just Like John. A woman clad in deep mourning went through the menagarie yesterday, stop? ping to admire each of the animals in ? turn, and every now and then applying her handkerchief assiduously to her eyes, says the Burlington Free Frets. When she came to the camel, it was evident that she had come to stay. She sat down on one of the posts that held the rope and began to catechise the attend? ant. "This is the camel, ain't it?" ' "Yes'm?and the finest specimen in this menagerie or in any menagerie in the country."- \ ? "Do tell! How that reminds me of John. John was always at the head of the heap. Now, do tell me some of the peculiarities of the camel?won't you ?" "Yes, ma'am. He has a long neck." "Just like John I He had the longest neck you ever saw on a man. Gracious I I wish you could have seen the standing collars he used to wear. Come, now, tell me something more." "The camel has the , largest natural hump of any animal in existence." "Just like John 1 You never saw a man that could hump himself as John could, when he had a mind to." "The camel is also a great traveler." "Just like John I I never could keep him at home nights." "He is called the ship of the desert." "Just like John 1 He could get more pie aboard than any other man in Ver? mont." Just then.the lion began to roar, and the woman started'on th.; dead trot to see how much meat they could eat at one meal. "There's one thing I hain't told yon about this animal?the most impor? tant of all." "What's that?" cried the woman, turning round in her 'racks. "He can go for weeks without drink? ing a drop of water." ? :-, "Just like John 1" exclaimed the ex? cited female. "You never saw a man?" But the lions began to roar so loud that her voice was lost to the atteudant of the camel; and he forgot all about the little incident, until later in the day, when he saw a female in black in front of the monkeys' cage and heard her ex? plain, byway ot comment on some re? mark of the keeper? "Just like John 1" The Agricultural Do'nt. Don't settle liown to the belief that red clover won't grow on the farm. Try it. Don't believe that berries and the larger fruits are not wholesome in the family, but save health and obtain pleas? ure cheaply, by planting all that will grow. Don't fix the fence partly to day with a promise to do it better next week. That time does not come until damage to be regretted has been done. Don't be content with half a crop when a little more labor will bring a full one. Don't try to get something out of nothing. Don't wait too much on the weather. Don't go off dissatisfied because you don't get rich by farming in a year or two. Don't discourage your children by constant complaints about your farm business. Don't buy a new farm tool until you know just how you can pay for it. Don't go fishing as long as the axe and hoe need sharpening. Don't forget that if you waste no time in attending to them, your crops will grow nights and Sundays. Don't abolish farm accounts, but make each cultivated field pay something above expenses annually. Don't forget that a very few acres in fruit will often pay all the expenses of an average family. Don't use "cuss words" with any ex? pectation of making them mend broken harness.?Southern Cultivator. How Success Is Won. George Stephenson, unable to read the alphabet till be was eighteen, working in the coal-pits fcr six-pence a day, and mending the boots and patching the clothes of his fellow-workmen in .the evenings to earn a few extra - peonies that he might attend a night school, is a good illustration of what a poor and ignorant boy may become. Never idle, never above doing the commonest work, never an ale-drinker, as was the custom among miners, he showed the fine quali? ties* of his nature by giving the first money which he ever earned, one hun? dred and fifty dollars, to his blind father that he might pay his debts. When he became an engineer and pro? jected a railroad from Manchester to Liverpool, the people said "he is a mad? man." His 'roaring steam engine' will set the bouses on fire with its sparks, the smoke will pollute the air, and the car? riage makers and coachmen will starve for want of work." The excitement following bis public proposals waB in? tense. For three days he was questioned by a large committee of the House of Commons. This was one of the ques? tions: "If a cow gets on the track of an engine traveling ten miles an hour, will it not be in an awkward situation 7" Very soberly answered George Stepben son, but with a twinkle in his eye: "Yes, very awkward indeed for the cow 1" The government inspector said that if ever a locomotive went ten miles an hour be would "undertake to eat a stewed engine-wheel for breakfast." Stephen son's "Bocket," a clumsy engine, but a wonder at the time, and'now to be seen at Kensington Museum, made the trial trip at an average speed of fourteen miles an hour, and so the inspector had the opportunity of keeping.his promise. During the ? next ten years, being em? ployed to open up railroads in every di? rection, Stepheuson became renowned and wealthy, the friend of Sir Eobert Peel, owner of a large country-seat, and the pride of England. He declined the honor of Knighthood. His famous son, Robert, said of him, "His example and his character made me the man I am." ? Wide Awake. The Dog Cured Himself. A special dispatch from Williamsport, Pa., contains the following remarkable snake story: John Davis and George Miller drove from Collinsville to this city. Vifaien they were crossing the mountain at a place known as the Old Hermit's, a valuable coach dog which .accompanied them ran off into the woods. Soon afterward they heard him yelping in a peculiar manner. Both men jumped from the wagon aud hurried in the di? rection of the cries. They came in sight of the dog in a hollow and found him in a fight with several rattlesnakes, which surrounded him on a large flat rock, and struck him from every side. Miller and Davis each seized a long club and went to the dog's assistance. They killed eleven rattlesnakes, and many others escaped among the rocks. The largest one was four feet long and bad seventeen rattles. While the men were busy cut? ting off the rattles of the snakes they bad slain, Miller was overcome by the peculiarly offensive odor that character? izes rattlesnakes, and Davis was obliged to help him away from the spot. It was several - minutes before he recovered frori~the effects of the poisoned air. The dog was nowhere to be seen. Davis went back into the woods to look for him. In passing by the spot where the snakes had been killed, he saw a number ot live ones which bad come out of their boles among the rocks, gliding ?round their dead companions, springing their rattles and every motion denoting fury. Davis beat a retreat, and went off in another direction, calling bis dog. Sud? denly he came upon the dog with its body imbedded in a mir* hole in a swampy spot. Its head alone was above the surface. Dogs bitten by rattlesnakes instinctively seek such places and bury themselves in the mud. Old snake hunters say that if a dog is able to find swamp mud'and covers himself with it, it will invariably draw out the poison. Davis left bis dog in the swamp, and drove on to this city with Miller. Last evening the dog arrived home, apparent? ly none the worse for its encounter with the venomous reptiles, although it must have been bitten by them mauy times. ? If a man wants peace to reign in the household he should count ten before speaking at times when he feels as if his clothes don't fit him. And on days when the kitchen stove doesn't draw he should count 480. f?Trs PILLS TORPID BOWELS, DISORDERED LIVER, ~ and MALARIA, From these- sources arise three-fourths of the diseases of the human race. - These - symptoms indicate their existence: *Gom of Appetite, Bowel? costive, Sick Head? ache, fullness' after eating, aversion to exertion oX body or mind, Eructation of food, Irritability of temper, low spirits, a feeling of having neglected some duty, Dizziness, Fluttering at the Heart, Bote before the eyes, highly col? ored Urine, COIiSTIPATlOW, and de? mand the use ofa remedy that acta directly ontheLIver.

The gentleman who outlines bis case below is a man considerably advanced in life, and is noted for his sterling integrity. His Postoffice is Yates ville, Upson County, Ga. The following is Mr. John Pearson's Statement: In the Spring of 1882 I was attacked with a very bad cough, which continued to grow worse until fall, when I got so weak that I could not get about. I tried a great many kinds of medicine but continued to grow worse. I was notified that I had consumption and would probably die. Dr. Hollowav finally told me to try Brewer's Lung Re? storer. They sent to Ward's Store and got a bottle and 1 commenced taking it right away. After tak? ing two or three doses, I began to improve, and by the time I had used up one bottle I was abie to get on my feet again. I am now in excellent health. I am eonlident that the Lung Restorer saved my life and my neighbors are of the same opinion. It is the best Lung Remedy ever made in my opin? ion. Dr. H. promised me that he would write to the manfacturers and tell them of the wonderful cure it made in my case. Statement of Mr. Benj. H. Hearndon: Early In November, 1881, while sewing on the machine, my wife was taken with a severe pain in her side, which was soon followed by hemorrhages from her lungs aud a severe cough. Fever com? menced, she could neither cat or sleep, and in a few weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton. The attending physician told me that lie thought one of her lungs was entirely gone. She could not retain the most delicate nourishment on her stom* ach. I then agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physician, to call Dr. Holloway In consultation. They mode a final examination of the patient and pronounced the case hopeless. Dr. Holloway then suggested the Brewer's Lung Restorer as a last icsort. I sent for a bottle and gave her a dose. I found that she could retain it on her stomach, and after about the third dose, I began to notice some improvement In her condition. I continued the medicine regularly, and by the time she had taken two bottles, she was able to walk about the house. She is now in better health than she has enjoyed for several years. I believe the Lung Restorer saved her life. We have a family of six children, some of them grown." Jir. Hearndon's Posto?lcc is Yatcsville, Upson .County, Ga. lie is a thoroughly reliable man in every particular. Lung Restorer for sale by Wilhite A Wilhite, Druggists, Anderson, S. C.
