They desire to pay it all off at their next meeting, and if not handed in in time it may be years before it is paid off. B. A. Johnson will' pay highest prices for hides or take them in exchange for leather. When you see a young man engaged in private conversation with a carpenter in the ware room of a store, it is a pretty good sign that the question of whether marrnage is a failure will soon be put to a practical test.

He arrived here Monday. and secur ed rooms at Mrs. M. 0. Burgess's. Monday was a rainy and disagreeable day but he did fairly well, and Tuesday and to-day his place was besieged. This is his first visit to Manning, and he was agreeably disap pointed at the amount of work he got. He used up all the material he brought with him. He leaves in the morning for Colum bia, and as rajpidly as possible the work will be finished and sent back to the par ties. Among the pictures taken was that of the A. M.E. church, of which he is tomake a hundred photographs; a group picture of the officers cf that church; the residence of .Moses Levi; and Mr. F. C. Thomas seat ed in a road cart driving the finest horse at his stables. Mr. Rteckling expects to return again shortly, and he will then probably do more work than tns time.

Editor Manning Times:-You will please state to your readers that we have finished opening up our spring stock, and that we are prepared to fur nish all goods in our line at the very lowest figures. We extend a cordial invitation to the people of Clarendon to visit our store and make a close inspection of our goods and prices, and we guar antee to be able to show up as fine assortment of goods as can be seen in any establishment. Our stock of dress goods is the hand somest we have ever had, and for beautiful designs cannot be excelled anywhere. We have taken special care this spring with this stock in or der to compete with such establish ments as make dress goods aispeci alty. In white goods, laces, embroideries and edgings we have an endless va riety, and can sell them cheaper than any house in town. These goods as displayed by us make a magnificent show, and it is worth a trip to Sumter just to look at the beautiful figures and designs. Gingham and zephyr suitings are made up this year in the handsomest designs we have ever seen, and it was our good fortune to get into market before the cream of the designs were picked over, therefore we laid in a large stock of these goods knowing that the demand for these goods at this season of the year is great, and by buying in a large quantity it ena bles us to sell them much cheaper than those houses that buy in smaller quantities. By buying goods in case lots a considerable discount is ob tained, and we always give our cus tomers the benefit of such discounts. Now is a splendid time for the ladies to do their shopping. They can make the very best selections from fresh goods just opened, and at the same time have their spring dresses with the beginning of the season. All of our dress goods are bought with trimmings to match, so that when a lady buys a dress she need not run all over town trying to find the suitable trimmings. These trim mings when sold with the dress are sold at a nominal profit. We have a magnificent line of'gents' clothing. All of the very latest styles can be found at our store, and our patched pocket sack isuits are very nobby and attractive. We are able to sell a real good business suit for less money than any other house in Sumter. The shoe stock we never let run down, and. this season our stock is lsrger than ever. We were forced to buy heavily this spring in order to meet the demands on us for our shoes, as the people have found out that we sell these goods cheap and only keep a reliable article. Oar whole stock is complete, end no one can form an idea of the im mensity of our stock without giving same a personal inspection. We have a great many customers in Clarendon, largsly through the in strumentality Of your valuable paper, and we think it is unnecessary for us to do any more than merely announce that our spring goods are in stock, and that we would be delighted to have them come in to see us. Very respectfully, LEVI BROTHERS. Attention, Xoanning Guards. Manning, S. C., March 5, 1891.f Special order. You are hereby ordered to turn out with arms and accoutrements on next Thursday night, at the armory for dr'll. Let eve'y member tuin out, as we wish to prepare for the centennial at Columbia in May.

We call attention to the advertisement o Wetherhorn & Fischer, manufacturers .of doors, sash, blinds, and other house decora tions. These gentlemen are not strangers to the people of this section, as a great many houses in this town and county are finished with work from their establishment. Persons contemplating building will do well to writeito them for estimates and prices. William Burmester & Co., dealers in grain, hay, and all kinds of feed for stock, are out in this issue with a card asking the people of this section for their patronage. They are always supplied with first-class goods, and will furnish them at short notice and at as low figures as the market permits. Write to them or give them a call when in need of anything in their line. Tobacco is an article extensively used, and at no better establishment can this ar ticle be furnished than at the wholesale es tablishment of the Follin Brcthers. They carry an immense stock of all kinds of to bacco, cigars, pipes, and other smokers' ar ties, and will give your orders prompt and polite attention.

S. S. is remarkable. I, numbers of instances it is related that a great deal of time and money have been spent~in a vain effort to secure relief from disease in the usual way. A knowledge of the virtues of Swift's Specific would have saved the time and the money, to say nothing of the prevention of the suffering. There ned be no such mistakes made now. The great blood purifier is for sale by druggists everywhere, and the S. S. S. company in Atlanta will send to any address their treatise on blood and skin diseases free, and a pamphlet containing a few of the thousands of testimonials they have received from those who have experienced the bene fits of this wonderful medicine.

SUrMEnToN, March 10.-The municipal election last Tuesday passed off without a ripple of excitement. There was no regu lar ticket: it was a vote for whom you please. The following were elected: R. H. Belser, intendant; R. 1t. Briggs, J. J. Ragin, M. S. Cantey, M. L. Sanis, wardens. Mr. J. B. Richardson was married on last Sunday morning to Miss Mamie Norris, of Sumter. Mr. M. S. Canty and wife who have been spending some time with relatives in Spar tanbarg will return home this evening. Mrs. A. J. Briggs returned home last Thursday evening after a visit of several weeks to relatives in Charleston. Mr. Dick Hlarvin and wife, of Texas, are spending some time with his brother, Mr. T. H. Harvin.

C. TOU1iISTS, Whether on pleasure bent or business, should take or every trip a bottle of syrup of figs, as it acts most pleasantly and ef fectually on the kidneys, liver and bowels, preventing fevers, headaches and other forms of sickness. For sale in 50c. and $1 bottles by all leading druggists. Mr. J. A. Sproit Fails. JonnAm, Mar. 9.-Mr. J. A. Sprott, of this place, made an assignment on Monday of last week to Mr. J. M. Sprott. Some time ago Mr. Sprott made an arrangement with his creditors for the liquidation of his in debtedness, which was accepted by them. The immediate cause of his assignment was the failure of some of his creditors to stand by their agreement. Mr. Sprott has been doing a very good business, but he lost heavily on cotton during the past fall, which embarrassed him. His liabilities are about $6,000; assets about $3,500. Messrs. Peagler & Vincent, of Lanes, have opened a stock of general merchandise in one of the stores recently occupied by Mr. Sprott. They expect to handle cross ties in connection with their business. Mr. Park er, of Orangeburg, is their salesman. Mr. J. J. Wilkie, the contractor, has ar rived, and begun work on the new Acade my. He expects to have it completed in side of two months. X. I. EVERYBODY KNOWS That at this season the blood is filled with impurities, the accumulation of montLs of close confinement in poorly ventilated stores workshops and tenements. All these impuri ties and every trace of scrofula, salt rheum, or other diseases may be expelled by taking Hood's saxsaparilla, the best blood purifier ever produced. It is the only medicine of which "100 doses one dollar" is true. When Baby was sick, we gave her CastoriLa. When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria. When dhe became Elss, she clung to Castoria. When ad Chldren,she gave them Castora. A Suecess-King's Royal Germetuer. Is established as a remarkable success. Thor-sands of tssumonials attest its virtues. Many of these bre given by men and women of highest standing in the most honored walks of life. In the midst of a flourishing and rapidly increasing business the price is reduced fiom 81.50 to $1.W0 per bottle. This is done in the interest of those whose cir camstpnc es in life eeter them from paying the higher price. The rich who have tried it will buy at any price, but the managers feel that a medicine which possesses such wonderful powers should be placed within the reach of the poor. Many have said that "'Germetner" was the ehu.&pest medicine on the market. When it is remembered that a bottle of concentrated Gcrmetuer makes a gallon of mediciae r n 1y for use, it is cer tainly cheap ur tha3 ordinary meficines as to bulk; end wl'en the powers of the medi cine are taken ir to eouni t'-. price is in considerable.

I am now offering 100 bushels of a new variety of improved Peterkin Seed for sale at $20 per bushel, or $5 per peck. It is a limed cluster, very prolitic, fruits from the ground to the top, and matures every boll. Not liable to dry forms on stalk like other prolifies; not liable to fall out like other clusters; makes about the same turn-out of lint as the well known Peterkin, (from 38 to 40 per cent.) I have three years experience with this ootton, and can say I believe it to be the best cotton now in existence. I have never offered it for sale before, and have only 100 bushels for sale. Order right away if von want them. I am still offering my well known variety at $1.50 per bushel, price reduced on large orders. Cash must accompany orders and freight prepaid, as rairoad will not accept cotton seed without prepaying freight. The price on improved seed will not be reduced by taking over a peck, but will be in the others if ordered ini large lots. The farmer who buys a peck of the im proved seed, will consider himself fortunate next fall. I have never seen anything to equal it. JAS. A. PETERKIN. Fort Motto, S. C., Jan. 22, 1891. Sumter News.

Another fire Friday destroyed the residence belonging to the estate of Mrs. Wilson and occupied by Mr. Baxley.

STARKEY & PALEN'S Treatment by Inhalation. 1529 Arch St., Philadelphia, Pa, For Cmsumption, Asthma, Bronchitis, Dyspep sia, Catarrh, Ray Iever, Headache, Debiy Rheumatism, Neuralgia, and aU Chronic and Kervous Disorders. The original and only genuine Compound Oxygen Treatment, that of Drs. Starkey & Palen, is a scientific adjustment of the ele ments of Oxygen and Nitrogen magned and the compound is so condensed and made portable that it is sent all over the world. It has been in use for more than twenty years; thousands of patients have been treat ed, and over one thousand physicians have used it, and recommend it-a very signifi cant fact. It does not act as most drugs do, by cre ating another ailment, and benefitting one organ at the expense of another, often re quiring a second course to eradicate the evil effects of the first, but Compound Oxygen is a revitalizer, renewing, strengthening, in vigorating the whole body. These statements are conrfimed by nu merous testimonials, published in our book of 200 pages, only with the express permis sion of the patients; their names and ad dresses are given, and you can refer to them for further information. The great success of our Treatment has given rise to a host of imitators, unscrpu lous persons; some calling their prepara tions Compound Oxygen, often appropra ing our testimonials and the names of our patients, to recommend worthless concoo tions. But any substance made elsewhere or by others, and called Compound Oxygen, is spurious. "Compound Uxygen-Its Mode of Adion and Results," is the title of a new book of 200 pages, published by Drs. Starkey & Palen, which gives to all inquirers frll information as to this remarkable curative agent, and a record of surprising cures in a wide rag of chronic cases-many of them after being abandoned to die by other physicians. be mailed free to any address on applican Drs.
