(\ MRS BRUCB DBAp. \ Good Chtfotian Woman I'rhhch Awh^ After Lingering Illness. After u long illness, borne with Christian patience, Mrs. Mary Vaughn Bruce passed from all earthly cares and suffering at . noon, Wednesday, March 14th. She was the daughter of the late C. (\ VaughaU and his first wife, Minnie* Schrock Vaughan. In early years she was married <o Thomas Benton Bruce, an ! all of Tier useful and well-spent life was passed ip Camden. $o her rearing by a dovoted grandmother may bo at* tributed her utter unworldliness. Of a deeply pious nature, she stood Arm for her religious convictions and n^ ^reed w4? strong enough to prevent her from obeying the dictates of her heart and conscience. A kind ami sympathetic heart won her tpany staunch friends. Absolute loyalty was chief among her characteristic*. The life of Mrs. Bruce may weir be called a remarkable one ? not in any sense that it was filled with such deeds that the world calls great, but with the quiet heroism with which she accepted ^he ordeals which few people escape. Crosses she accepted with cheerful and unfailing fortitude, for every happiness she showed joy ous gratitude, and most of all her ! ceaseless and self sacrificing dvvo I tion to the welfare of her family. ? Sho leaves a husband and four children, Miriam Bruce, aged 10; Clare Bruce, 12; T. B. Bruce, Jr., 7; and Minnie Sue Bruce, 4. She also loaves a stepmother, Mrs. C. 0 Vaughan, and one half brother, Chrirf? topher Vaughan, ami a devoted old grandmother, Mrs. M. E. Schrock.

Library Notes. ? Ah .uKual the Library has been ;j great convenience to the "stranger within our gates." The Librarian re grets though, that she has not been able to get back some of the books loaned ? two copies of Historic Cam den are out and her efforts to reclaim them have so fay been unsuccessful. It is hoped that this notice will bring forth an abundant harvest and all Library books will -be returned promptly, not only does this refer to our tourist friends, who are usual ly very prompt, hut to the citizens who have grown very careless again about this matter. The chairman of the' book committee is going to en force the rules strictly and heavy fines will be enforced on all overdue books if not returned at once. The Library management acknow ledge with thanks a gift from Dr. Rainsford ? his new and interesting book ? the story and adventures of his life ? as told by himself. Mr. Joseph Crocker has generously offered to buy a handsome Dictionary and instructed the Librarian to get the best and send the bill to him. Mrs. George Cook has been quite generous in contributing recent fic tion. Mrs. Grover Blackwell and Mrs. CN P. DuBose have also shown their in terest by selling flowers that were blooming in profusion on Library Park. Several dollars have been taken in for the benefit of the Insti tution in this way. Mrs. Todd has given quite a num beh of beautiful and expensive maga* zines to tho table. The management i? under many obligations to Mrs. Trowbridge for the neat little guide book gotten out ?

COTTON SEED FOR PLANTING i , Seeing- the need in this County of a better short staple; cotton and a cotton that will mature earlier than the varie ties now planted I've purchased 1,000 bushels of the Salsbury planting- seed for , distribution. These seed were grown on the largest cotton farm in the world ? a 41,00() acre farm where the seasons are about two weeks later than our own. Therefore, cotton grown from these seed will mature earlier than if seed werg grown in a warmer climate. This cotton is extra prolific and grows staple one and one-sixteenth inches in length which al ways brings a good premium over the shorter lengths. As a money crop this cotton led all others on tests at the Mississippi Agricultural College. J. L. MOSELEY, Camden, S. C. Seed Now Ready For Delivery. Do You Need Money TO BUILD OR BUY A HOME?
