"X. On November 15 Et';sto Academy
KSfl:
was host to the Seivern Community
' v.i"
Fair. The large display included
i&vU s.
school, farm and home exhibits, and
also some very interesting relics. The
"
booths of the Sunday school, the B.
T." P. U. and Y. W. A. were partieularly
attractive and educational
people from five rural school communities
were present. Refreshments
were sold by a committee for
the benefit of the piano fund. At
midday addresses were made by
Messrs. Johnson and Winters and
; Miss Harper, Demonstration Agenu
/ from Aiken. Others who assisted
f them in judging the entries were Miss
Oaughman of Lexington, Mr. Harmon
of Aiken and Mr. Mills of Wagener.
During the afternoon a highly interesting
game of volley ball was played
iS I
by picked teams from the Edisto
boys. Inasmuch as student committees
did practically all the work of
staking the fair, the actual crsh expenditure
did not amount to more
than three dollars.

IX BACK YARD
Head erf Wagoner Merchant Almost
Severed From Body.
Aiken, Nov. 23.?Special: Robert
L. Williamson, a retired merchant
and farmer, and prominent citizen ol
Wagener, was found dead yesterday
in the back yard of his home at that
town ,with his head almost severed
from his body. The evidence tends
to show that ho was a victim of foul
play, as blood stains were found leadins
from his bed room to the place
where the body was found, which indicates
that he received the fatal
wound while lying in bed, and rushed
out of the house before bleeding to
death near a wagon in his yard. Sheriff
Howard and Coroner Tarver spent
half of the night making an investigation,
which thus far fails to showeither
the supposed murderer or the
motive for the crime. The inquest will
not be concluded for several days yet,
or until the people and officers are
fully satisfied. The deceased leaves
a widow and two sons, one of whom
is a student at Furman University
besides many other relatives and
friends. Interment took place late
this afternoon at the Wagoner cemetprv.
CAR OF FINE HOGS
SHIPPE D TT ESDAY
The first cooperative shipment ol
hogs was made from the pens of tlie
Colleton Products Association Tuesday
afternoon. These hogs came
from several points in the county and
were sold to a Charleston concern,
which made a better offer than could
be had in Richmond, taking into account
the difference in the freight
rates and the probable shrinkage from
shipping.
This car was assembled through
the combined efforts of President
Shaffer, of the C. P. A., and County
Agent Kinsey. It was composed ol
hogs from seven farmers, and the average
weight was 171 pounds. The
shipment was as fine and smooth a
bunch of hogs as was ever assembled
here. Many of them were thoroughbreds
and these demonstrated the advisability
of turning from scrubs tc
thoroughbreds, on account of the
quicker growth and the smoothness ol
the a?iimnb-.?Walterboro Press &
Standard.

cotton exchange. According to :

Butesburg-Leesville News, Nov. 25. '
<
On last Thursday about 2 p. m.
Mr. W. E. Quattlebaum's homo was ]
completely destroyed by fire. It was
one of the largest and most substan- *
tial homes in Leesville. Probably half
of the furniture was saved. The fire ,
originated in a room over the kitchen,
but just how no one seems to know.
The loss sustained by Mr. Quattlebaum
was probably $$.000 with $2.S00
insurance.
Remarkable
"It is simply rotten. The people
here treat us as if they knew we
ivere not accustomed to much money
?and yet I am always talking about
money."
7ns. Watson Says. "I'll .Never Forget
Wlien Father's Hogs Got Cholera."
"One morning he found 20 hogs
dead and several sick. He called in
the Vet. who after dissecting a rat
caught on the premises, decided that
the rodents had conveyed germs.
Since ..hen I am never without RATSN'Al'.
It's the surest, quickest rat

Some persons are subject to frequent
colds, while others seldom, if
ever, have a cold. You will #nd that'
the latter take good care of themselves.
They take a shower or cold
sponge bath every day in a warm
room, avoid over heated rooms, sleep
with a window open or partly open,
avoid excesses, over eating, becoming
over heated and then chilled and get- !
ting the feet wet. Then, when they
feel the first indication of a cold,
they take Chamberlain's Cough Heme- j 1
dy without delay and if. is soon over.
