Mr. Reaves Declines Call. ?
Rev. Edward S. Reaves an- p
nounced to his congregation last I
Sunday morning that he had de- g
clined the call recently extended a
him by the church of Edgefield 11
and would therefore continue to I
serve the church here. This an- f
nouncement was received with A
pleasure by both the church and f
community at large for it is I
the earnest desire of every one I
that Mr. Reaves remain here. |j
He is a strong preacher and is I?
loved and honored by his mem-! T
bers. He is a man of high liter- B
ary talents and his work here is
appreciated by his members and
the citizens at large. The church
has grown stronger under his
pastorate and it is the duty of
every member to continue to give
him the warmest support ?Honea
Path Chronicle.
Catawba Lowers 50-Year Record. ,
"With the exception of one day L
two weeks ago the Catawba I
river is lower now than I have I;
ever known it in the fifty years |
in which I have been immediate- R
ly acquainted with the stream." \ |
This was the statement made 1
Friday by Mr. Sloan, of Sloan's I
ferry, to a representative of the |
Charlotte Observer.
Mr. Sloan is the Delphic oracle ] I
authoritative in all matters con- I
cerning the river, says The Ob- |
server. He dwells just beyond I
the stream, on the Gaston side, y
on a farm which is attracting |
the attention of passersby on fl
account of the exceptionally good H
stand of corn, which he expects
to yield from 125 to 65 bushels I
per acre. He has records es- I'
tablished by the river in the 3
course of the past 140 years. His 5
memory does not run quite that R
far back, but the high-water I
achievements have been treas- R
ured up and imparted from g
generation to generation. The I
high-water mark for all that long I
stretch of time was far surpassed FMay
23, 1901, when it rose 31 Q
feet and 8 inches above low water.
Its present condition is
in marked contrast. Mr. Sloan
speaks of his personal knowledge
for the past fifty years with re- 'c
gard to the present depression. g
Have Handsome School House. a<
C(
The new school at Pleasant g,
Valley, which is almost com- ei
pleted, is a very handsome build- p,
ing in which the residents of that
pretty and growing community
feel much pride. The new school
house will be occupied at the ^
opening of the fall term, and it
will accommodate about 150 pupils.
The exterior is of simple C(
and plain design, but its interior
construction throughout is of the e<
most approved style. The building
has plenty of light, the win- !<
dows being well arranged for '
school purposes.
Two teachers will have charge ^
at the opening of the school and
the attendance during the next c<
term it is expected will be larger
than ever before.
ilust Race Without Betting.
Governor Blease was asked 0
Saturday what would be his attitude
toward betting in case the 0
project to establish a metropolitan
race track at Charleston t<
should be revived, as it is intimated
it will be. "I have not
changed my opinion, as expressed
before my inauguration," he
said. "I am opposed to gam- p
bling and do not intend to allow
it at a track in Charleston. Fur- n
thermore, I intend to see if I tl
cannot prevent any bookinaking S(
or any other kind of betting at 0
the State fair races this fall. I
shall instruct my men to keep a
careful watch and arrest both
the bookmaker and his patron in n
case there is any attempt at bet- p
ting." ?Columbia Record.
Articles have been signed for a
fight in London before September c
30 between Jack Johnson and
Bombardier Wells for the championship
of the world and $40,000.
Most Englishmen consider "V
that Wells will have small chance ?

Kills More Ihan Wild Bersls. |!
The number of people killed yearly by .
wild bests don't approach the vast num- r
ber killed by disease germs. No life is t
safe from their attacks. They're in s
air, water, dust, even food. Hot grand ^
protection is afforded by Electric Hitters,
which destroy and expel the dead- t.
ly disease germs from the system. a
That's why chills, fever and ague, all
i malarial and many blood diseases yield
promptly to this wonderful blood puri- j _
tier. Try them, and enjoy the glorious |
health and new strength they'll give j s,

About Paint.
Never before should pure paint be
appreciated than now. With the high
cost of materials that enter into its
manufacture comes encouragement for
the appearance on the market of all
kinds of substitutes and adulterants.
Pure paint is composed of pure carbonate
lead, sulphate zinc, linseed oil and a
little turpentine dryer and practically
every manufacturer who makes such a
product, prints this guarantee in a conspicuous
place on the can and is proud
of it. Look for it and see if it is there.
If not it is a 100 to 1 shot you are n 11
getting what is regard< d as a pure paint.
The average painter i< n?? chemist,
besides he may be influenced by eff< rs
of i? ward or premiums for the use of a
certain Paint. The dealer do - n t
know. He goes by th> rep jtat'on of
the manufacturers, and may be influenced
by extra profit. But if it is
down in black and white, igned by a
real manufacturer, you have your guarantee
and it is geod However, paint
nr.ay be adulterated to various extentand
then be good paint, but the price
to you should be adulterated in proportion.
i Ih Devoe Pure Lead and Zinc and

that are worth the money. Send a sample

you want further assurance.
