The write-up we gave our home adver
tisers last week has been of such benefit to
them that some of them have expressed
their appreciation to us in person. We
are glad that our readers !et our advertis

away on them.
The sooner a cough or cold is enred with
out harm to the sufierer the better. Lin

pleasant to the taste. R. B. Loryea.

.1r. Joseph F. Rhame, Jr., c this town
was among the recent law graduates before
the supreme court last week. Mr. Rhame,

his uncle, Hon. Joseph F. Rhame, whose
reputation as a lawyer of high standing is
well known.
Pains in the chest when a person has a
cold indicate a tendency toward pneumo

ment will cure a lame back in a few hours.

Rev. A. B. Watson, and two fine mules and

It is folly for people to subject themselves
to attacks of chills and fever and malarial
troubles, when by the timely use of Ra
mon's Liver Pills & Tonic Pellets and Ra
mon's Pepsin Chill Tonic they can so for
tify their systems as to entirely prevent
them. Every one knows these famous
remedies, buit for fuller information ask
your druggist for pamphlets and sample
dcse. For sale by Dr. WV. M. Brockinton,

Early yesterday morning, before day
light, the mail bag was stolen from the
steps of the postoffice at Pinewood, taken
into the woods, cut open and the contents
rifed. It was discovered almost immedi
ately and an alarm given. A party got on
the track of the thief whom they have spot
ted and are out hunting for him. The
rifed mail pouch was found in the woods
about 150 yards from where it was taken.
We understand there was no registered
matter in the pouch.
We know of no better thought for the
consideration of our local readers, at this
time than the subject of a graded school for
Manning. This is no new idea, we have
had something to say on the subject befo':e,
but from information received we are of
the opinion, that unless some step is taken
in the near future our growing town will
be sadly in need of good school facilities;
Manning has not kept op with the progres
sive procession and it is time her citizens
are waking up. There are several school
districts in the county today far ahead of
us, when the County 8eat should lead the
rest. Schools supported by private tuition
fees have proven a failure here, and we
must resort to other means or acknowledge
ourselves indifferent to the future welfare
of our children. We made an effort to get
a graded school for Manning once, and
failed because of some techoical flaw in the
the manner of the petition, but let us make
another start and we believe that many
who were formierly opposed to the ,scheme
will now fall into line and give the scheme
their support. A first class educational
system is a crying necessity for the future
progress of our community and Manning
is sadly in need of such a system. The
extra tax that such a system will incur is a
mere bagatelle when compared with the
good results and those who have the great
er burden of the taxes to pay, will not be
found in the opposition. So let us make
another effort with a strong steady pull for
success.
How te Look Good.
Good looks are really more than skin
deep, depending entirely on a healthy con
dition of all the vital organs. If the liver
is inactive, you have a bilious look; if your
stomach is disordered, you have a dyspep
tic look; if your kidneys are affected, you
have a pinched look. Secure good health
and you will surely have good looks. "Elec
tric Bitters" is a good alterative and tonic.
Acts directly on the stomacb. liver and kid
neys, purities the blood, cures pimples,
blotches an d boils and gives a good com
plexion. Every bottle guaranteed. Sold
at . B. Loryea's drug store. 50 cents per
botte.
Grand Miliary Concert in Sumter.
On January 18th there will be a grand
military concert for the purpose of pur
chasing a pipe organ for the Methodist
church in sumter. The company from
Smter who were in the First Regiment
will drill and show all the different scenes
in camp life. There will also be a drill by
a squad of young ladies, which, of course,
will be very fine indeed. There will also
be a lot ot fine singing by some of the best
singers of the city. Thie railroads will
sell cheap rate tickets so that all who want
to enjoy a treat cima come.

Two Pointed Questions Answered.
What is the use of making a better article
than your conimpetitor if you can not get a
better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in the
price the pul-iic will buy only the better, so
that while our profits may be smaller on a
single sale they will be much greater in the
aggregate.
How can you get the public to know your
make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominently
before the public both are certain to be tried
and the public will very quickly pass judg
ment on them and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale on Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. The people have
been using it for years and have found
that it can always be depended upon. They
may occasionally take up with some fash
ionable novelty put forth with exaggerated
claims, but are certain to return to the one
remedy that they know to be reliable, and
for coughs, colds and croup there is noth
ing equal to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

Will Our Boys Go to Cuba?
Col. Wilie Jones of the Second South
Carolna regiment spent Sunday in Colum
bia with his family. He will return to
camp on the midnight train. Col. Jones
is looking and feeling well. He says that
the Second South Carolina is waiting pa
tiently on its turn to take the transports for
Cuba. He said that he did not know when
the regiment would leave Savannah for
Cuba, but he expected to leave Savannah
in about ten days or two weeks' time. He
says that it is simply a question of time for
the transports to get the soldiers moved.
Some of the members of the Second*
South Carolina were also in the city. They
do no not appear to be at all certain that
the regiment will go to Cuba, and are in
clined to turn up their noses any way at
going. T1hey say that the fighting is over
and that it does not make much difference
to them whether they go to Cuba or not.
They say that some other regiments are
trying to squeeze them out of going to
Cuba, and that the way things go there is
no telling what (will be the final result of
the matter. The regiment has not yet got
ten final orders to move to Cuba.
It is understood that Capt. Fuller, chief
mustering officer, has been advised to re
main in Columbia. From this it is ex
pected that he will soon be given some
mustering out to do. The talk is that the
heavy battery will be ordered here to be
mustered out of service. This may or may
not be correct; the general tone from Wash
ington seems to be against, mustering out
anybody or anything.-A. K., Dec. 19.

Ews the Th Kind You Hans Always Bought
Whose Ox is Thiis!
Policeman Scarborough arrested a queer
looking, big jawed colored fellow~ yesterday
morning having in his possession a large
red and white ox. The fellow gave his
name as Willie Muldrow and hails from
Clarendon county, says he has been staying
with Jailer Hobbs at Manning. and that he
bought the ox from one Bill Turbeville
about eight years ago. His tale is very
thin indeed and he will remain in prison
until he can prove what he says about the
ox. He offered another negro $2 to swear
that the ox was his before he got to town,
and that is sufficient to prove that he stole
the o.-Darlingtonian.

The Cheapest First Class House in Town
Or Try to Follow,
But when it comes to QUALITY, QUANTITY and PRICE
they are not in it.
Remember that we are still holding down the prices
on everything in our line. Our stock of
Christmas Goods
Is now complete, such as Dolls, from 4c to $4.98. Toys of
every kind.
We have the finest line of Chinaware that has ever
been in this place, such as Cake Baskets and Plates, Choc
olate Pots, Celery Trays, Cracker Jars, fancy Cups and
Saucers, Rose Bowls, fancy Hand Painted Vases, Cut
Glass Water Sets, fancy Ewers and Basins and Pomade
Boxes. We'have some very nice Celluloid Goods, too
Dressing Cases, Work Boxes, Manicure Sets, Jewel Cases,
nice Albums. Glove and Handkerchief Boxes, Cuff and Col
lar Boxes, and in fact everything you can mention in the
way of Christmas Presents. Come and see before they are
picked over.
Now a word about our General line.
We have only a few more pieces of that fine 9c Bleach
that we are running at 5c.
We will sell our entire line of Clothing at cost now.
Everybody knows very well that we have to have
some profit on what we sell, but now as we are overstocked
on Heavy Clothing we will sell it out at a sacrifice, rather
than carry it over until another season.
We have about 200 Capes that we will give you some
special prices on.
MILLINERY.
We are still running off our Millinery Goods at cost.
Not that we are going out of the business, but we want to
get clear of our Fall Goods so next spring we will be able
to offer NICE, CLEAN, New and Attractive Goods and not
something that is five years out of date, or any old stock
that has been packed away for ten years.
Our Milliner has gone back North to select and study
the fashions for next spring.
When a lady comes in our store and says she buys five
hats from us (for the whole family) for the same money
she paid for one or two not as good as ours in other milli
nery places in town before we opened, I think that sounds
like we are selling $5 hats for less than $2.50. We.have
about 200 ready trimmed hats on hand .now that will be
sold cheaper than ever. If you need one come and get it
now AT WHOLESALE COST.
We have about 500 pairs of'Jobs in Men's.and La
dies' Shoes worth from 3 to $5 that we are running off at
from 98c to $1.89. They are bargains. Come and get a
pair. We are here for business and here to stay.
