The "Old Folks Concert" last Friday evenin(r ;t the auditorium for the ben eft of the Confzderate monument fund wa: a decided success both financially as wel as otherwise, A neat sum of about 60.00 was realized and those who gave it their patronage had an evnssp~easure which they would like to h"ve repeattid. We beiieve, if th!se who are at wurk in this great cause would take the concert to several places in the county it would prove wise. and at the sametime to --ive the people their money's worth. The progr.n. was splendidly carried out: those on the stage were in costuncs of the revolu tionarv period, and the ladies made handsome belles while the men were go:'d initations of colonial caviliers. The ;ougs were of tlie olden time. melodious, tuneful, and s.:reechingless inspiring. One of the cutest numbers Vwas that rendered by Craven Bradham and Margairette Dickson, who sang a duett which elicited great applause. Their singing and their acting were good. The solos rendered by Misses Sule:W. Brockinton and Vallye Ap pe.t are highly commended by those who are competent to judge the merit of vocal music. Miss Ria Lee Bowman entertained the audience with an in strumental solo which was highly ap prec!ated. The quartette com'posed of Messrs. Joseph Wells. Charles Wells. Lachicote. and Wideman, rendered several numbers delightfully and As good as is brought here by any of the yceum cu:rses'. Th. accompanists on the piano were Miss Edna Brockin ton and Miss Augusta Appelt. The performance was very credita ble, and those whlo are responsible for the eve ning of pleasure are entitled to the thanks of the community. FOR ESTON.

The bride is one of Foreston's most popular and amiable young ladies, whose many friends wish her much happimess. The groom was one of Heinemnau's, S.

S C. 018001B8 [ff[CJ3 Of SEEiNG EU Z 1101D11 t Persons Who Have Tested It Say . Rheumatic Pains Vanish, Appetite Grows and Indigestion Disap - pears as if by Magic. 1 To the many local people who have i followed the recent startling reports I of strange cures that have been brought about by the use of the new Root Juice medicine, which has cre ated so much excitement in Atlanta . and other places, the following de- r scriptions of its remarkable effect up- t on diseased conditions in many cases I will be found most interesting. t : Mr. Albert Timsick, of Cantrall, E who was a great sufferer from indi gestion, loss of appetite, pains, bloat I ng, belching and other common symptoms of a badly daranged stoin itch, tells this story of his experience: "My condition was such that I could. not keep down a glass of water. I had suffered for two vears and tried many kinds of medicines without benefit. I was alnrost deat one evening, when I sent for a bottle of the Root Juice I and felt better as soon as I had taken 1 three or four doses. I kept on using it and now I cau keep anything on my stomach. Root Juice has done wonders for mue." Air. D. P. Kerr, of Bellefontaine, 0., tells the following story of his exper ience with the medicine: "I was the victim of severe stom- i ach and kinney trouble and grew weak. thin and nervous from the long and continuous suffering. My stomach was sore and painful. Most of the time I could not digeet my food. I would get up in the morning with a headache and so weak I could I scarcely dress myself. I frequently had billious spells, coated tongue, c bad taste in mouth and smothering S sensation. My kidneys would act often but very scant anid painfull." "I spent many dollars for medicines and treatment but could not event get relief. When this new medicine, Root I Juice, became known here, I was one of the first to get it. Before long I noticed an improvement. I am on my fourth bottle now and feel much bet- 1 ter in every way. My appetite is good, I sleep well, I eat what I want and digest my food. The soreness has gone from my stomach and my kid- 1 neys no longer give me any trouble. Y I am free from headaches, am gain- b ing in strength and have gained in e weight." c Others who have used it for rhen- r matism say that its effect is marvel ous and that after taking it a short time the' pain and soreness vanish. The stiffness goes and the swelling soon disappears, the joints and limbs t become limber and strong and the s general health improves. 3 Local druggists can now supply the 0 Root Juice in th.iee-quarter pint bot tIes at only one dollars each.

Some time ago a man named Berges ras stabbed to death at Algiers. Three nn were arrested on suspicion, but s they proved their innocence they ere released and the matter was helved. A few days afterward a man alled at the office of the local police ommissary and said to that official: "My name Is Marius Yvorra. I killed 3erges, and this is how I did It." The commissary listened to the nan's confession and said: "You had better see my secretary." The secretary also listened to the aan's confession and after a little re lection said: "Now, look here, my good man; this s not the way to get arrested. You nust write us a letter confirming the ral statement made to us. Then we hall be able to attend to you. Now, et along." The man left the office, and perhaps cause he was not a good writer he tas not been seen since in Algiers. Wu Ting Fang's Good Cheer. Among the most intimate of the Chi ese friends of the late Sir Robert Hart ras a high official, Wu Ting Fang, ho prided himself on his alert man er. which made him appear much ounger than he was, and boasted that e intended to live 200 years. He once xplained how this feat was to be ac omplished. "The first thing, natu ally, is diet," said he. "The man who rould cheat Time should live on nuts ke the squirrels. Under no condition hould he touch salt, and he should egin and end each meal with a tea poonful of olive oil. I have hung crolls In my bedroom," Wu Ting went n to explain.

The fraternal form of address common to the church passed naturally into legal phraseology. :Brother So-and-so of the monastic or der was "brother'' also at the bar. So strong was popular prejudice against admitting the competency of mere lay men at law when this class began to practice, about 1300, that lay barristers adopted a black velvet skullcap or coif to conceal their lack of tonsure, the -; distinguishing mark of the priestly lerk.
