OLDEST JUSTICE RETIRES

of the supremo court of the Lni.e<
State*, hft*sffMii*n?d. Ho was namcx

"The condition of my health m^kes

that 1 cannot lea^e without deep regret

of many years ami the absorbing' interests
that have filled my life.
"Hut the time has come and 1 bow

Farm Market Letter
In order to help the farm people
of Kershaw county to secure more
money we plan to begin shortly to
issuing circular letters in Camden
and over the county listing farm products
for sale.
While we do not propose to guarantee
the articles listed, one requirement
is that the produce or articles
be exactly as described; and that the
sellers and buyers negotiate together
and not through our office.
It is felt by man" people that much
can be accomplished by aiding the
farm people to trade or sell their
surplus products. <
In listing products with our office
it- is requested that the seller ^.ivc
his address including K. F. D. and
-box number in order that he may
be easily found by prospective buyers.
Hams, poultry",' eggs, vegetables,
various meats, potatoes, grains and
feed-, meal, seeds, utensils, cows,
calve-. hone.V, bogs, |>igs. mules,
wagons, plows and many other article
may be tsvlcj. w. traded by having
th-Vn li-t<'d in otr market letter.
We will continue to sell large surpluses
which could not be absorbed
by the county, these going to the
fnrger markets.
This will be of interest to town
people as well as to the farm people
as it will not only help farm folks
to find a buyer bui_ will also make
)( easy for town people to locate
what they want. Those who may be
interested in purchasing farm commodities
may receive these market
letters by listing their names for
the county agent's market letter.
Another requirement is that wo
he notified of sales made through
this medium.
Those who desire to receive these
market letters should have their
name and address placed on out
"Market letter" mailing list, advises
lbiiry D. (Ireen, the county agent.
This Doctor believes in Men
Dr. F. F. Thornton, of London. Ky.,
believes in men. Not long ago a man
told him he owed him about $<>. as he
had utilized hi? services 22 years ago.
Dr. Thornton found that in KH)l* he
Had ( hargetl-this man The patient
paid it after all these years, but
neglected to add interest.
Not long after that. Dr. Thorntonl
had the second surprise of his life.
He found a feeble old man in his office
one day, who told him that he
had come to pay him "for working
for me." That work, it seems, had
been carried out twenty-five years
ago, and the doctor could not even
recall the face of the patient, who,
handed his $2(>.(X). The Doctor had
to admit that his office had burned
with all h:s books of that time, he
hud n?? account. The patient saul he
owed exactly $U. and he continued;!
I want you to keep the $1X.N) and
t?. ?l,?.w that 1 am hones', the $2.00
are i>u - for being good to me.'

Twenty-one years ago a Fincastle,
Ya.. physician attended a negro. A
few months ago the man returned to
Fmeastle and paid the doctor $10 for
his services. He had been in the interim
in the state penitentiary for
slaying his mother-in-law.
Farm Note
The successful farmer in 11*32 will
be seer, going to his smokehouse for'
baeon and ham; to his bam for corn,
meal, grits; to his lot for milk and
butter; to his pantry for conned I
goods. And that farmer is going to
get along pretty well, boo.?Bamberg

WHITER WOULD HAVE RURAL '
OFFICERS RETAINED HERE
Editor Chronicle; After reeding
the proposed Supply Will, I have one
suggestion to make. I notice it cut#
out entirely the rural polico job. I
am oppoWd to cutting it out. I think
we peoplevjn the rural district8 should
have proteettWk^h*! that is thu only
way to get it. You have suggested
going back to *he old Magtttrate(Y.nMaide
s?tem, which is the next
thing to^nothing.
I would suggest that you cut out
u)l the magistrates in the county except
four, one in each township, with
the' salary you have suggested for
magistrates and magistrates' constables
which would mean about .
twenty-five hundred dollars ($2,500).
Thenr if necessary, cut the police's
salary twenty-five dollars ($25.00)
per month, which Wans twelve hundred
dollars, leaving a difference of
[about thirty-two hundred dollars. I
don't think that the good citizens of
Kershaw county would object to paying
the difference for the protection
that the rural police would givo us.
Give us the rural police and let's all
stand behind thorn and help them to
enforce the law and not criticize and
find m) much fault. To do away with
the police means for the lawlessness
to run rampant in our county and the
violators go unpunished.
Other suggestions might bo made
but I will leave thaL with you.
Yours v*Ty truly,
Wade L. Stokes,
Oassatt, So. Car.
Poultry Shipments
Arrangements are now being made
to ship poultry from Camden Monday,
January 18, a. m.; Kershaw,
Tuesday, 1all day; Bethune, Wednesday,
20, 8 to 12 o'clock.
While the contracts for these schedules
have not bCen definitely closed
it is practically assui'eif that the operations
will be macte as scheduled
above. Notices will mailed out
the latter-part of this week to a few
box holders on each R. F. 1>. route
in the county. Anyone particularly
interested in shipping poultry or turkeys
over either of these schedules
may secure definite information the
latter part of this week from the
home agent or the county agent. Indications
are that prices will probably
be a little better tharr the last
recent shipment.
For the information of those who
ship from Bethune the company which
will buy this schedule on the Seaboard
is the same that bought at Bethune
last year and not the company
that failed to buy as scheduled just
before Christmas.
Prices for . the Camden and Kershaw
shipments will be announced
later. Prices to be paid' at Bethune
are as follows:
j No. 1 turkey hens, 20e; old toms.
I 1 .">c; colored hens, 15c; colored chickens.
15c; stags, He; Leghorn hens,
12c; Leghorn chickens, 12c; cox, <?c;
ducks and geese. 10c; guineas. 20c
each.
Not Broke
A member of the mob marching
on Washington in an effort to arouse
governmental interest in unemployment
fainted, was carried to a hospital
and in his pocket, police said,
was found $1,000.
This is just another indication of
the fact that those who actually need
help are pot the ones making the
most noise. Those who are most
worthy of receiving aid are too modest
to cry their woes to the ears of
the world. Those who, when helped
over a rough place will again take
their places among the real workers
are not th? shouters, the noisy militant
pnrader Who knocks upon the
door of the White Hou*e.?Union

Lost 20 lbs. of Fat
In Just 4 Weeks
Mrs. Mae West, of St. Ixiuis, Mo.,
writes: "I'm only 2rt years old and
weighed 170 pounds until taking one
box of your Krusehen Salts just 4
weeks ago. I now weigh 150 pounds.
I also have more energy and furthermore
I've never had a hungry moment."
Fat folks should take one half

glass of hot water in the morning hefore

On Paying Accounts
(Find of a Series of Articles To
Apper in The Chronicle) 4
It is an unquestionable fact that
too much debt, national, state, city
and individual was one of the causes
of the present world depression.
These deblkvare what are causing
so much misery and suffer^# ?t
present, both physical and mental.
How may Offl'h of us help to bring
back to this nation the prosperity
and happiness we have enjoyed in
the past and to which we are entitled
t
'May each of us do our part to
bring this condition back and the
riength of time this will take depends
upon our ability individually
and collectively to get all debts re*
dueed to a reasonable sum.
Some people have believed the
chain stores of all kinds were a menace
to the towns in which they were
located, but -is it not a fact that
their custom of dealing for cash only
has been an incentive to other merchantV
to limit the amount of credit
they extend and to collect their accounts
jn more promptly?
They have also taught many hundreds
of thousands of' individuals the
benefits of paying cash for what they
buy and not h'ave the dreaded monthly
bills.
Can we not right here in Camden
help to hasten the day of better times
by each one of us trying our best
to pay each merchant or person what
we owe before we thoughtlessly use
the money for things we would really
b% just as well off without?
jLet each merchant send out his
bl^fcmore promptly and let each of
us good citizens use a greater effort
t6 pay our debts more promptly
and do our bit to hasten prosperity.
Pay Your Debts
If you owe money to the other fellow
don't wait until you can pay him
all you owe. Pay him a part of the
debt. Every little bit you pay helps
him and in turn he can pass on what
you pay him to the other fellow and so
the benefits will continue. If you
elect to wait until you can pay all
you owe in a lump, the time may be
too long.?Yorkville Enquirer.
Confidence
A story goes the rounds which
states that while frightened citizens
were rapidly withdrawing funds from
a strong bank in Florence the other
day, and rushing them to the postofTice
for deposit, postofTice clerks
were engaged in trotting right back
to the same bank and placing them
on deposit ?in the name of Uncle
Sam.?Marion Star.

the penitentiary wall at Columbia on
Sunday morning and stole from inside
the prison the automobile of C.
A. Sullivan, assistant captain of the
guard. The city police working on
the ca>e have no clue to the hold
thief.
Sore Throat
Is Dangerous
A sore throat often leads to serious
illness. Stop it at once. Take
Thoxine, a prescription made exclusively
for throat ailments; not a
gargle. The first swallow relieves
the soreness in a few minutes; and
goes direct to the internal cause,
preventing further trouble.
Most coughs are caused by an
irritated throat. Thoxine stops these
at once. Safe tor the whole family
?guaranteed no dope. Money back
if not satisfied. 35c. DePa&s' Drug
Store and all other good drug stores.
