The couple are to leave in a few days for Autry ville, Ga., where they will make their future Y ed price $5. which he offered for $1. and the way the suckers bit was a e caution; they shot up their dollars, and promisea they were not buying for - speculation, nor were they expecting anything to be given them as an in ducment to buy. The fakir went on, bled the crowd with his telling them they were to get nothing, but in a man e ner to make them believe they would get their dollars back. After he had gotten all he could, he gave each pur chaser a little piece of worthless brass Sjewelry, a pair of flannel inner shoe soles with tin tags oa them and an af fictionate adieu. The belts can be purchased at Dr. Brown's drug store for less money, but he could not sell them to the suckers for one-fourth the I price. Old Soldier's Experience. M. M.

DEAR Sra:-As I have heard nothing - of the cotton mill for Manning and s Clarendon county for some time, I t thought perhaps a few lines in your pa ' per would bring this very important subject to life again. A little over a year ago I discussed the matter with a few of our leading business men and they did not seem to take it or see it as I did. I have been watching the course of events since and the impression made on me is that a first class cotton mill at Manning is of vital importance to the merchants, far mets and laborers of this community and a large part of the county. And if some leading citizen with a few thou sand dollars would take the lead in this matter I have no doubt that the money for this mill could be raised in a short time. Now we will go over the ad vantages and see what they are. First, the Merchant. Suppose we build a mill that will employ 500 hands at 60 cents per day (they will average s more), there will be $1.800 in cash to be I spent each week with the merchants, s farmers, butchers, gardeners, drug t gists, churches, etc. This is not just . one week, but every week of the year. Suppose the merchants of this town had 2 this mill now, in the distressing condi tions under which they are laboring, what a blessing it would be to them! - Now take the laboring class of Deo - ple. What would this mill be to them, s if they could get employment in this f mill, 500 of them, say with each to have I three others to support-1,500 little D ones, old mothers, old fathers? r Take the farmer and gardener, who 3 have made nothing this year. Next F spring when they could come to the mill and sell their truck for the cash what a blessing it would be to them. In the fall the farmer could sell his cot ton, or a large part of it, to the mill at fair prices. Now take the land owners. It would 6 increase the value of real estarte more than double, which will be much more than the mill will cost; this has proven so in all of the cotton mill sections. t And it will pay the stockholders a good profit besides-if it is properly man - aged. I do not write this from hearsay-I have some experience. We work 83 white pole in my mill-the Manning Hosiery M ill-and they all seem to be happy and living nicely. I am sure they support over 250 people, while without this employment some of them could not support themselves. SI hope this will bring this very im portant matter to the attention of every citizen of Clarendon county. Let them think seriously of it, and if they will put their shoulders to the wheel, Clarendon will have a cotton mill of which every one of them will be proud. Yours truly,HAV. W. SCOTTHAv.

St. Mathias Episcopal church, Sum merton, presented a scene of life and loveliness on Thursday, December 19th. The occasion was a "Christmas Wed ding." The principals were Mr. Lu can Edward Brailsford and Miss Ele nora Norvelle Richardson. -The little house of worship had been .,transformed into a thing of beauty by .the friends of the bride. The bright -red berries of the holly tree were artis -tically inter-twined with festoons of wild smilax, which were draped about Sthe chancel and walls of the church in t beautiful harmony. , The decorations about the chancel were very elaborate. The altar was ' pure white with delicate sprays of ivy sgracefully draped about it. Above the altar was a pyramid of one hundred f lighted candles reaching up to the line ,of the pointed arch. A bell of flowers Sand evergreens was suspended from the ' arch and about the bell burned clusters 1 of candles. The decorations were ar y' tistic and beautiful and St. Mathias has y never before been so lovely. r The hour of the marriage was high noon, and as both of the young people are favorites the building was crowded with their friends. r At the appointed hour or a few min utes thereafter, just sufficient to cause y the interested audience to grow a little t impatient, the bridal party arrived. To the strains of Mendelssohn's fa - mous Wedding March, rendered by e Mrs. Jno. C. Manning, with violin ac companiment by Maj. H. B. Richard >f son, the party entered the church. The ushers, Messrs. J. W. Rigby and e Shannon Lining first entered. Then o came the bridesmaids and groomsmen, e as follows: e Miss Hlattie 0. Simons of Charleston, L, with R. C. Richardson of Fulton. s Miss Mayme Richardson of Fulton, with M urrette Mouzon of Mannmng. e Miss Taisie Manning of Sumter, with Willie Gordon Belser of Columbia. a Miss Irene Brailsford of Richmond, -with Thomas C.

Richardson of Orange r burg. s Miss Elenora Richardson of Fulton, tt with Edwai'd Haynesworth of Sumter. Miss Lizzie Boykin of Camden, with a James M. Brailsford of Sumter. o Next came the bride with her Maid a of Honor, Miss Susan Richardson, and the groom with his best man, Mr. J. M. Richardson, Jr., of Panola. y Beneath the bell the couple took their o place and as "Oh. Promise Me," was r softly played, Rev. H. H. Covington -performed the ceremony. The bridesmaids wore gowns of rich a crimson organdie, Gainsboro hats,black o suede gloves, black slippers,and carried e lovel bunches of holly tied with e streamers of white satin ribbon. The maid of honor was gowned in e white organdie with crimson stock and a belt, Gainesboro hat and carried a spray f of holly tied with crimson ribbon.. .The bride was loveliest of all in her a She Didn't Wear a Mask, "But her beauty was completely hidden by sores. -blotches and pimples till she used Bucklen's aArnica Salve.
