r ni -Iing, S. C. S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, March 26,1890. OUR NEXT TOWN COUNCIL Some people seem to think, or re ally to desire, that all ends and pur poses must bend to their own indvid ual interests. If the governor of the State is to be selected, it is not wit) them the man who will best serve the people, but the man from whom Icai get the most public pap. And sc would some people wish to direct oa municipal affairs. With them it it not who are the best men to put 0 the town council, but who can we pul on that will elect me or my frieni clerk or policeman. The question fo3 the people of this town to decide i: who are the best men, the men wh< will take most interest in. the welfar( of the town, the men who have opin ions and convictions of their own, and( who can and will dare to do right "even though the heavens fall" We made a canvass this morning of as many of the citizens of the towr as we could fnd, as to their first and second choice for Intendant of the town. We interviewed forty-eight citizens and without any effort what ever to inluence their vote, not even letting them know how others had voted, and assuring them that the vote would be kept secret, we obtain ed the following as the result of th csavass: -IMST CHOICE. SECOND CHOICE. J. F. Rhame 25 15 W. K. Bell 1 1 D. M. Bradham 4 9 M. Levi -3 R A. Walker 2 B.. A. Johnson 1 W. E Brown 2 3 P. R Thames 3 2 SA. Nettles a 4 J. S.Wilson 3 1 A. Levi 3 2 W. S. Pack 2 & A. Rigby 2 -L Loyns 1 . Kalisky 1 . H. Lesesne 1 RPBarron - 1 E. .Horton 1 It is due Mr. W. K. Bell to state that he has positively refused to be a candidate again for Intendant, having served in this capacity a number of terms. This accounts for the small new of bis vote. The above vote is, we think, a fair indlex of opinion of the citizens of our town. The farmers' convention meets in Columbia to-morrow. We will see 'what we will see. ~i cess of Wales was offered recently $5,O 'barr-American mag. azine for one hundred words.

The other day he got into a carriage at Nice, whereupon the horse nearly upset the vehicle and its con -tents. Dom Pedro, however, managed to escape being thrown to the ground. Rev. George Gray, of Chicago, charges that a certain Chicago editor has been sending rifles to the negroes in the South. He claims that he is --not trying to create sectional strife or akigto get up a sensation, but says that he bases his assertions upon reli able information. Leaving out of the calculation, un seasonable weather, disasters and oth or matters beyond human control, it is safe to say that anything which has real merit; for which there is a need, or want; or for which a want can be Icreated; and which sells at a reasona ble price, can be profitably advertised in the newspapers. The News and Courier has had a postal card vote for governor, through. .u-IState, and the result was an Inounced yesterday. One thousand postal cards were sent out. The votes were scattered, fifty-six persons hav - inbeen voted for. Of these 3. C. Shepadleads with 90 for first choice, and 68 for second choice, 158 in all; B. R. Tillman, next, with 64for first choice and 27 for second; then Johnson Hagood with 58 for first choice and 43 for second choice. 0f the others J. H. Earle received 38 votes in all; Gov. J. P. Richardson 13 in all; and E. T. Stackhouse14 in al. The vote was small and badly scatter ed, but mnaybeso it shows the way the * poitial1 winr1 in blowing. HOUSEHOLD NOTES. 3MS. S. A. NErLES. A NIcE PIECE of work to have on hand to put a few stitches into when we have a few moments of spare time is the following: Take of linen, pique, or even a fine quality of unbleached sheeting, and cut into squares of nine or twelve inches, to be used when done for quilts or bed-spreads. Work figures in outline stitch on each square with red French embroidery cotton; hem the squares and sew together with an insertion of red. and white torchon lace or seam the squares to gether, covering the seam with fancy stitching done with red cotton. If white linen or pique is used, work the figures in solid embroidery with white linen floss or working cotton. Put the squares together with crocheted or knitted insertion. Line with bright colored silesia, and you have a spread of both beauty and durability. AIRING RooMs.-It is a great mis take that the whole house, particular I ly the sleeping rooms and the dining room, receives little ventilation and purifying of the air, when it can be done with so little trouble and no ex pense. A pitcher of cold water placed on a table or a bureau will absorb all the gases with which a room is filled from the respiration of those eating or sleeping in the apartment. Very few realize how important such purifica tion is for the health of the family, or, indeed, understand or realize that there can be any impurity in the rooms, yet in a few hours a pitcher of cold water-the colder the better and more effective-will make the air of the room pure, but the water will be entirely unfit for use. In bed rooms a bucket or pitcher of water should always be kept and changed often if any one stays in the room during the day, and certainly be put in fresh when the inmates retire. One should never drink such water; if it is needed for drink, use a closely covered vessel. Impure water causes more sickness than even impure air, and for that reason, before using water from a pump or reservoir for drinking or cooking, one should pump or draw out enough to clear the pipes before using it, particularly in the morning, after the water has been standing in the pipes all night. HOUSExEE.PmN r-s A SMALL WAY. When funds are plentifql it is an easy matter to furnish a house prettily, comfortably, and luxuriously, even if we lack the necessary taste; the furni ture dealer can help us wonderfully, or a friend can overcome all deficiencies in that way. In many cases the lack of the money causes a young housekeeper much thought, and many hours are spent in planning that she might show off her house to the best advantage. How singular that most of the gifts we have treasured for use when the event ful time of having a home of our own should arrive, are in most cases for sitting or bed rooms. After these rooms ar^ furnished we seemingly have nothing left for the dining room, so it seemed to me, and I will give my experience. My drawing room beipg small, I dispensed with the border of my car pet for that room, and with this bor der and a few er~~j arpgenade a very ~enillrug for my dining 'rodiileaving a margin of eighteen inches which I painted cherry. Having some chairs not quite new, I also painted them the same color, for one can do wonders with a small, quantity of paint. My table was square, padded, and corresponded in color with my chairs and floor. 'With a few well-chosen pictures on the walls, fan cy curtains to the four windows, and some blooming plants, my dining room looked quite cozy and home-like. Of course, a floor not entirely carpeted will require wiping with a damp cloth every morning, but what energetic housekeeper minds a little thing like that? Not long since, I visited a friend, who, owing to reduced circumstances, was keeping house in two rooms. I hope few who read this are contem plating housekeeping on so small a scale, for butf/ew, I fear, would prove as well satisfied, happy, and withal so good a housekeeper as my friend. I laid my wrappings aside in the bed room, which was neat and prettily furnished. My friend then led me into, as I supposed, hei sitting or liv ing room, but which proved to be the kitchen. The floor was covered with matting, and besides the usual table and chairs was a large Japanese screen which hid the stove entirely from view. The one window was shaded by pretty curtains, a small stand, on which stood a few choice plants, a brass cage in which birdie was merrily singing, a light, ornamental rocker, and some few pictures and other small decora tions finished this cheerful and pleas. unt little room. Adjoining this room was a moderate sized pantry where everything in the way of cooking utensils was kept. It seemed strange that any one could keep house so nicely with so little space, but system was displayed in every particular, and perhaps I was not wrong in thinking my friend "one woman in a thousand ."--Artur's IHme .Magazine. Cani Scirrhuas Cancer be Cured. This is a hard question to answer. Swift's Specific has cured thousands of cases of skin cancer, and there have been many cases of seirrhus cancer reported cured by it. We do say that S. S. S. is worth a trial in any case of cancer. We append a state mient from Miss Green, of Tallapoosa, Ga.: In 1884 1had a small lump in my left breast, which proved to be a cancer. The first remedy I tried was to have it burned off. This did not cure it, for shortly after wards it broke out again in a much worse form. 1 then consulted our druggist, who advised me to try Swift's Specific (S. S. S.), land after taking about one dozen bottles, was completely cured, and my general health was greatly improved. This has been over six years ago, and my cancer has never appeared since, nor has it troubled me in any way. I can cheerfully recom mend Swijft's Specific (8. S. S.) to anyone suffering with cancer.

Hurrah for Cleve land and 1892! The mail for Pinewood now goes from her to Wedgefield, thence to Fulton by a stai route, and thence to Pinewood, a circum bendibus of about 28 miles, which render a reply within three days an impossibility Considering the fact that it is only 14 mile to Pinewood by the M. & A. R. R.. and tha the mail car coines to Sumter every mornin by the Wadesboro train, why cannot the au thorities direct that the service be eontinuei to IPinewood and Remini, so that peopli living there may be accommodated? As i now is the mail car is switched off here ani remains until evening. A few mi:es mor would hurt neither mail agent nor car. Th< people want the service, and the governmen tun pay for it. We are reliably informed that about tei days ago, near Wedgefield, a nameless crime was perpetrated by a white man upoi a young white child nine years old. Inw not discovered for a week, but since thei the examination by a competent physiciai of the person of the child goes far to sub stantiate the charge which she brings agains the brute in human form. Other circum stances, unfit for publication, also tend ih the same direction. The people at Wedge field are greatly disturbed about the crime As the matter is now undergoing legal in vestigation, we refrain from giving th, names of the parties, at least until sacl time as the arrest of the guilty man shal render these precautions unnecessary.

It is carefuly prepared from Sarsaparilla, Dandelion, Mandrake, Dock, Pipsissewa, Juniper Berries, and other well known and valuable vegetable remedies, by a peculiar combination, proportion and process, giving to Hood's Sarsaparilla curative power not possessed by other medicines. It effects remark able cures where other preparations fail. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is the best blood purifier before the public. It eradicates every Impurity, and cures Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Boils, Pimples, all Humors, Dys pepsia, Biliousness, Sick Headache, Indigestion, General Debility, Catarrh, Rheumatism, Kidney and Liver Complaints, overcomes that tired feel ing, creates an appotite,and builds up the system. Hood's Sarsaparilla Has met pecular and unparalleled success at home. Such has become its popularityin Lowell, Mass., where it is made, that whole neighbor hoods are taking it at the same time. Lowell druggists sell more of Hood's Sarsaparilla than of an other sarsaparillas or blood purifiers. Soldby druggists. 31; slzfors. Preparedonlyby C.
