preacher's salary $170.25, better we'll venture
to say than any other church in the dis

dIed, some in making change, and some
few who attempted to beat the side show

sionally.

There are several matters we would like
to touch on editorially, but our space is so
crowded that we give place to local matter
and correspondence. After Christmas we
,hall have plenty of space, but at present
we have to leave out some advertisements,
o get in as much as we have. Larger type
md more matter after Christmas.
We published last week an agreement
igned by all the merchants in town, to

ad too many ladies were in their stores, to
lose up.

THE CLERGY RECOMMEND IT.
Malaria is nothing more than a blood
oison and when its attacks are felt some
hing must be taken to completely eradicatt
the poison from the system. Dr. Westmore.
and's Calisaya Tonic is the most efficient
lood medicine in existence, and all disor
flers of the vital fluid readily succumb t<
its influence. A minister writes:
Nasxvuza, TENN.
Gentlemen:-I find I need some tonic at
n appetizer, and also to fortify my systen
against malarial influences; from having tri
d it myself, and from the testimony of oth
ra who had tried it, in whom I can rely,
know of nothing so good as Dr. Westmore
and's Calisaya Tonic. Please express m4
hree or four bottles to the above address,
and oblige. Yours sincerely,

' The Wilsons Literary Club.
Wasoss, Dec. 14.-One of the most en
iyable occasions of the season, was the
eeting of the Union Hestrionic Club, ls
riday evening, at Wilsons. Mrs. S. A

are certainly under many obligations to he:
for such valuable assistance. The prc

together, as has well been termed, "Th<
hope of South Carolina," with beamini
countenances, telling better than words th<
appreciation of everything tending to ele
vate, build up and strengthen the social, a
well as the moral character of man. Th
meetings of said club are for the very pland
ible purpose of painting the Methodis
church at Wilsons: and we are in deed gla<
to say have been liberally patronized. A4
the above mentioned meeting the doorkeei:

ported fifty odd dollars in Biand. So you sei
besides having a very nice time we are a<

The PanolaCrack-Shot.
Editor Manning Times:-BTur scribe had a
most delightful visit to Panola last week,
and was royally entertained by Capt. J. P.
.Brock. Months ago, while summering to
gether, we had agreed to combine our ef
forts, as soon as possible, in an attack upon
the partridges. Last week was the set time,
and quite a time it was. It gives me pleas
ure to be able to say that I handsomely cut
the comb of the Panola crack-shot. I beat
him shooting in the woods, in the fields, and
1in the public highway. It really became
pnful tome to have to "put sand in his
ey" so often, but I succeeded in doing so,
Sad so thoroughly that no ordinary sports
man need now fear to call him out to a con -
Itest.
.On the last day of our hunt the Captain
became desperate. It seemed to annoy him
to think that a little fellow from Sumter,
who had never attained to more than half
his growth, should out shoot him; and in
his desperation he sought the aid of a de
vice unknown hitherto in the field. I am
almost ashamed to tell on him, but in order
to forewarn others of his friends, I must let
the cat out of the bag. The trick was avery
simple one. While I slept, he emptied the
- shot from quite a number of my shells, and
substituted therefor a lot of slugs of lcad.
t He knew that no mortal could strike a bird
- with such missiles, and this was his last
a device to whip me out. It gratifies me to
abe able to state, however, that I beat him
r shooting even then, and left him in a state
- of mental dejection that was pitiable to be
- Ihold.
B In consideration of the above facts, Mr.
t Editor, I think it would be eminently proper
- for you to put your paper in mourning for
-a couple of weeks, and send letters of con
- dolence to all the kindred of the late la.
,mented. -Somrxn.
eAbout his Brother.
. Several years ago my brother, who lives
1 with me, had a very strange sore to break
!out on his leg--about half way between the
Sbody and thc knee--which afterwards de.
sveloped into a rose cancer. It resulted from~
a bruise made by tie rubbing of the stirrup.
Sleather while riding.
SThe cancer continued to grow until it was
- about five inches long, and three wide. The
d fesh sloughed off, black, rotten and foul,
and it was almost impossible to procure a
t servant that would wait upon him, the air
Iin the room where he lay being so foul that
* it would sicken anyone who entered. Ever5
Sphysician of any prominence in the State
~was consulted, and treated my brother with
Sout success. One doctor finally advised him
to try Swift's Specific (S. S. S.); he did so,
ji and used nothing else. He commenced tc
a improve immediately, and after taking sev'
a eral bottles was completely cured, and since
1884 not a symptom of the disease has man
e ifested itself. C. A. GRIFrrHn,

His Health Broke Down.

Sall business on account of my health.

CHILDREN ENJOY
the pleasant flavor, gentle action and sooth
ing effects of Syrup of Figs, when in need
of a laxative, and if the father or mother be

BROWN'S IRON BITTERS.
It is pleasant to take, cures Malaria, Indiges
tion, and Biliousness. All dealers keep it.
They are Grateful Anyhow.
Editors who receive complimentary tickets
to county fairs and other places are often
looked upon as deadheads, but the man
agers of the Henry county fair, who have
had some experience in such matters, had
the following printed upon the compliment
ary tickets they issued: "This ticket prob
ably has been paid for ten times over by the
paper-to which itis issued. It will be hon
ored in the hands of any man, woman or
child, white, black, red or yellow, who favors
the association by presenting it. It is good
for entrance and grand stand, and the bear
er, if driving, will be entitled to pass a team
free. The association recognizes the fact
that its splendid success is owing largely, if
not wholly, to the notices so freely given by
the press, and while we cannot render an
equivalent in cash, we return our grateful
thanks."-Slen, 0., Republican.
There are times when a feeling of lassi
tude will overcome the most robust, when
the system craves for pure blood, to furnish
the elements of health and strength. The
best remedy for purifying the blood is Dr.
J. H. McLean's Sarsaparilla.
Sick headache, biliousness, nausea, cos
tiveness, are promptly and agreeably ban
ished by Dr. J. H. McLean's liver and kid

If health and life are worth anything, and
you are feeling out of so-ts and tired out,
tone up your system by taking Dr. J. H.
McLean's Sarsaparilla.
Dizziness, nausea, drowsiness, distress af
ter eating, can be cured and prevented by
taking Dr. J. H. McLean's liver and kidney
pillets (little pills.)
For a safe and certain remedy for fever and
ague, use Dr. J. H. McLean's chills and fe
