Lowry will sell shoes for the next thirty days at reduced prices. Call and see him. It was gratifying to see the large number of people in town Saturday. It looked like business to see the wag ons of our farmers filled with boxes, barrels, packages, &c., and it is not surprising when we consider the strenuous efforts now-being made by our merchants to sell their goods and not allow themselves to be undersold by any other town. Competition brings trade, and we want plenty of it. Do your eyes need help ? If so call onI J. G. Dinkins &Co.and be fitted with apair of Aqua-Crystal spectacles or eye glasses. The gentlemen interested in the Young Mens' Building and Loan As sociation are -enthusiastic over their new institution, and are working hard to make it a success and it deserves success. It is the best thing in town to help a poor man that has been renting, to build a house; it is a first class savings institution for a young mani to save his money; and it is one of the most profitable investments any one can make. J. G. Dinkins & Ce. are agents for the celebrated Aqua-Crystal spectacles and eye glasses. Cali and examine them. People need not complain about high. prices of goods in Manning this year, as goods are being sold cheaper now than was ever known here before. There is no necessity of people going elsewhere to do their buying. Our merchants arc anxious to handle the vast amount of cash that is now being spent by the farmers. They know that a great many of them have made their arr'angements this year to buy for the cash entirely, and these are the men the merchants want to get a: chance at. Gentlemen give our mer chiants a trial b~efore purchasing else where, and see if they will allow you; to carry your money out of their stores. We think not, as they are biness men and know that if they wvant y-our money they must remem bey the war is over and sell their goods at "hard pan" prices. The oat crop all over the county is fine. The public school trustees are building a fine academy at Silver. The Calvary sub-union meets at the Grange hall next Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Mr. S. J.

For the past week Manning has been visited by a large number of commercial tourists, who were here trying to sell our merchantsthe differ ent lines of goods that are represent ed by them. One of these gentlemen told us that the merchants of this place have as fine financial standing as any set of merchants in the State. Just arrived at Kalisky's, 20 barrels of tarly Rose seed potatoes, and a fresh lot of lemons. Mr. Geo. E. Hudgins, of Foreston, S. C., has applied for letters patent for an inventiop, called the Safety Switch Stand for Railroad Sidings. It is self locking, and the person opening it for a train to pass into a siding cannot leave it until he places it back into position, making it impossible for col lisions on sidings. It is very simple, and its cost is nominal. We have just received, direct from the manfacturers in payment of advertising bills three SEWING MACHINES. We wish the money for them, and offer them at very low figures. First come, first served. Call at the '.l'ns office. The Young- Men's Building and Loan Association has put some of our people to thinking about building dwellings and stores, and from pres ent indications, there will soon be some new brick stores in course of erection. We are informed by some young gentlemen in town that they wilf commence the erection of some dwell ing Jiouses if they can buy suitable lots at reasonable prices. A valuable treatise on the care and pres ervation of the cyes given away to each on e of our customers. C all and get one. J. G. Drsxras & Co. One of the best signs of a county's prosperity is the small number of sheriff's sales. Monday was salesday, and as far as property was concerned the sheriff had nothing to do. It is certainly very gratifying to our people to know that the day has passed when tbe court house square was crowded with people ready to bid off the prop erty of a neighbor. It shows that the people are more careful than they used to be, and have stopped giving mortgages on their homes, and the consequence is they are prospering. All kinds of Garden Seed for sale in For. eston at Dr. Nettles's Drug Store. We are informed by one of the sci entific men that visits us occasionally, that he has made a careful study of the causes and effects of earthquakes, and after a very laborious search he has been convinced that earthquakes, like ladies' hustles, are things of the past. After a careful survey of the heavens he finds something that has the appearance of a sword, goat, and slice of bread on the face of the moon. Should this be true there is some cause for uneasiness among those su per stitiously inclined. Tradition has it that at a meeting of the wisest astrol ogists of ancient times this same sign made its appearance, and it gave rise to considerable discussion and thought, and after handling the sub ject for several days they came to the conclusion that whenever this sign ap peared on the face of-the moon earth quakes would be no more, and in their stead would come war and famine, and ever since it has been looked upon as a bad sign among superstitious people. Modern scientists have dis covered that the sword is an indica tion of war, and the slice of bread, f famine. Mr. J. F. Bradham sold a pig last week, that was five months and eleven days old, and the weight was ninety four and a half pounds. It was a, Yorkshire, and was one of the fattest, prettiest pigs we ever saw. A mad dog was killed in the Jordan neighborhood last Sunday by MaI R! G. Holladay. The dog bit another dog belonging to Mr. P. B. Hodge,' and also whetted its toney appetite by going for Mr. Wi. Barwick's geese. Somebody claims to have discover ed a substance that is three hundred; times as sweet as sugar. It is not known what that substance is, but it is supposed to be about eighteen years old, and to have a fondness for French candy and caramels. Stephen Benbow, a young colored man who is employed on the C. S. & N. R. R, one day last week, near Summerton, in attempting to jump on a moving train slipped and one of his feet went under a car wheel. The foot was mashed into a jelly. Benbow was carried to Elloree, were he re ceived medical aid. Get your land in condition for a crop of corn. No crop is so sure, so easily worked, and so valuable. A corn crop will help the farmers more than any one thing they can raise. The good effect of the crop of 1889 must be apparent to every one. The farmers have taken the right start. Let them keep on in the same way. Jetton, the oldest son of Dr. L. W. Nettles, of Foreston, a little boy about nine years old, who for the past four years has been afflicted with hip joint disease, fell while playing last Monday and broke his diseased leg. It is not improbable that the thigh will have to be amputated at the hip joint. This is a very dangerous op eration, and few persons ever sur vive it. We desire to place ourselves on record in the matter of a site for the World's Fair to take place in 1892.; New York, St. Louis, and Chicago are squabbling over the matter, and offer ing all kinds of inducenents. Large amounts of money have been sub scribed by each one of these cities, and still they are not happy. Man ning cannot afford to be so undigni fied as to enter into a scramble for a little thing like the World's Fair, but should the committee in charge de sire to come to this place we will use our influence with the board of coun ty commissioners to let them have the court house square. Gentlemen of the board, there is nothing like taking time by the forelock, and in order to prevent being taken by surprise we think it would be well for you to con sider the advisability of repairing the fencing around the court house; also give the building a good coat of paint which it very much needs. However, gentlemen, you know better than we do how much money there is in the county purse, but in our opinion it would be economy to have this needed work done. A LOVELY COMPLEXION Is something desired by every lady in the land. The easiest way to get that beautiful color to the skin is to first make the blood pure. The impurities must be removed byv the administration of some remedial agent which contains the most thorough alterative properties combined with those ingredients which tend not only to remove impurities of the blood, but also build up and invigorate the system. Such a remedy is Dr. West moreland's Calisaya Tonic, which not only thoroughly cleanses the blood, but also in. vigorates the system and leaves the patient in a thoroughly improved and healthy con dition. The price is within the reach of all. 50 cents and S1. a bottle. For sale by Dr. L. W. Nettles, Foreston, S. C., and J. G. Dinkins & Co., Manning, S. C. - Got in the Wrong Place. One of our merchants concluded Tuesday night of last week that he would go to the Collegiate Institute. and witness the play of East Lynne, which was presented that even ing. So placing one of his celebrated Man ning Guards cigars in his mouth, and a quarter in his vest pocket, off he went to see a quarter's worth of theatre. He turned in at the gate of the Methodist parsonage, went up the steps, and pulled the bell as though he desired it to be understood that he had a right to a seat inside as long as he had a quarter to pay for it. The bell was answered by the pastor himself w~ho desired to know the cause of the commotion. The merchant asked him if "Dis vas not de blace vere de circus vas." The gentleman told him that he had made a mistake in the house, but the merchant thought otherwise, and said: "Look here, don't make 'me any foolishness; I don't vant to beat my vay in here; take my monish und gove me a good seat vere I can get my monish vort, und den I can go home und dell my little Show." Seeing that the gentleman would not let him in, he pushed him to one side, and walked into the parlor, and not until then did he discover his mistake. When he looked around him and realized his predicament his eyes had the appearance of tw'o peeled onions, and he turned towards the door ut tering something like "b3-tam, vat a tam phool I vas." - NOT ONE IN TEN Of the people you meet from day to day has perfectly pure, healthy blood. The hered itary scrofulous taint afflicts the large major ity of people, while many others acquire diseases from impure air, improper food, and wrong indulgences. Hence the imipera tive necesbity for a reliable blood purifier like Hood's Sarsaparilla, which er-adicates every impurity, and gives to the blood viial-: ity and health. It cures scrofula, salt rheum, humors, boils, pimples, and all other* affections caused by-impurities or poisonous germs in the blood. All that is asked for Hood's Sarsaparilla is that it be given a fair! trial. M1. Levi on His Mettle. Moses Levi has just received inv'oices for the best lot of ladies' and gentlemen's shoes that have ever been offered in Manning, and he proposes to sell them so that people who desire to spend the cash cani buy cheap er from him than they can purchase from others. M. Levi says he will challenge any merchant in this or Sumter county to a free and open goods-selling contest. He says he has the best stock of goods he. has ever. opened, and bought them cheap. With: parties that will give him a fair chance lie will sell to them so that it will be a great in ducemient to purchase from him and thus. keep the money at home. Mr. Levi is well enough known for any one to know thaLt whenever he makes up his mind to do any thing he always succeeds. He has opened war against our people buying abroad, anid says he will put a stop to it if they willon ly call and examine his large and varied stock bought for the express purpaose of de fying competition.

Funeral of Mr. W. J. Clark. Precisely at three o'clock Thursday after noon the notes of the Presbyterian church bell tolled, announcing the funeral of the late William J. Clark, and long before the arrival of the funeragrocession the church began filling up. The congregation was very large, and noticeably in the galleries was the presence of old family servants and their children. The remains were carried into the church by six Master 31asons, Thos. Wilson and C. M. Mason, of Clarendon lodge; A. L. Lesesne and J. M. Turner, of Summerton lodge: and Thos. A. Bradham nd l. Kalisky, of it. Peters lodge. The casket was covered N ith many floral pieces which were sent ly friends from Sumter nd this place. Rev. James McDowell, pastor of the Pres byterian church, as:-isted by Rev. R. W. Barber, of the Methodist church, officiated. After the choir had sung "Hark from the tomb" Mr. McDowell delivered an earnest and solemn exhortation, followed by a beau tiful and touching prayer by Mr. Barber. After the services in the church were con eluded St. Peters lodge No. -54 A. F. M. again took charge of the remains, and bore them to the Manning cemetery, wLere they laid the body of their brother to rest with Masonic ceremonies. Past Master Dr. S. C. C. Richardson conducted the Masonic ser vice in a solemn and impressive manner. When the grave was filled, and the Masonic rites were concluded, a beautifully sad and touching scene occurred. Two little girls. both named Margaret, one the three-year-old daughter of the aeceased, and the other his ive-year-old grand-child, came forward, as isted by two lady friends, and gently and affectionately placed the kind floral offerings of love on the tomb that had just received their dear oue. Mr. Clark had a large circle of warm friends throughout the county, and he will be missed. MANNING MARKET. . February 5,1890. CORRECTED nY M. LEVI.
