There are a numhor of fnrmor renders of The Times not getti ng 1 he paper now, because we cannot afford to keep them on our subscription lists without gethng pay thv i.!je pp.per. It is our purpose to clear our lists of nil dead heads that they might try their hauds at beating elsewhere. Mr. L. E.

It is now supposed that the dog was suffering from a dose of poison. This section was visited Saturday afternoon by a severe storm, though the damage was principally to fruit trees and fences. Very little rain fell in the immediate vicinity of Fort Mill, but reports from nearbv sections are to the .effect that there was heavy rains, with some hail, though not enoturh of the latter to damage crops. It is the intention of The Times to publish at an early date a comSlete list of the Confederate soliers who enlisted from Fort Mill township in the Civil war. Such a list was published in the Yorkville Enquirer some time ago, but was incomplete, and The Times has been requested by the local committee to reproduce it. as a number of errors have been discovered since it appeared. ft BIO I || I We of 1 ?

I was % always tired; with poor appetite, so* tired always that I did not feel oqnal to any exertion at all. I had enlarged glands on the neck whioh wore vory sore and when I would take cold they would enlarge and cause me much Buffering. 1 often had spells of inflammatory rheumatism which affected the whole of my body and rendered me helpless. 1 tried medical treatment, which would give temporary relief, but it did not cure me. I tried various patent preparations, but they did me no good. At last a friend persuuded me to use Mrs. Joe Person's) Remedy : s I bought a half dozen bottles, and after taking it I felt ho much bettor that I did not feol like taking any more. The next year in the spring t u.- t .. mn-rt a iienutta more ana again took a half-dozen. I took it in that way until it lias made a complete cure of mo and my hoalth is fine. The enlarged glands are entirely cured, rheumatism entirely cand, and I am now in stout, robust hoalth, and Iad.iao everybody who needs a tonic or are "rnu down" to nso Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy. MRS.
