CITY LAUNDRY AND CAMDEN DRY CLEANERY Farms for Sale I have just a few farms left in Kershaw County. Now is the time to buy See me at Hotel Camden any Tuesday H. C. BATES, SR., Salesman Federal Land Bank of Columbia v Unique Rugs Go Under Hammer Pittsburgh,?A collection of valine ble ruga?tney coat more than $2,500,000 to collect?was shipped to tills city recently to be aold at auction. Their actual worth waa set by exports at $600,000. The ruga represented the hobby of* the late Jacob Heyl of Buffalo, who made a fortune estimated at $20,000,000 In the piano manufacturing business, but died penniless, leaving only the rugs to his widow and daughter. Heyl, his fortune apparently secure at 66, became Interested in Oriental rugs and decided to start a collection. His Interest soon developed Into an obsession, and he Bpent as much as $600 for rare books on the subject. The wealthy manufacturer made several trips to the Orient to get certain rugs, and once had to wait until a Sultan died before he could purchase a rug he wanted. The collection is unique, in that there is one rug from each Oriental tribe and principality engaged In the ancient art of rugmaking?502 In all. Heyl searched five years for one piece. It was a prayer rug of a Turkish family, with a design showing that the family consisted of > a father, another, five sons and one daughter. It took Heyl eleven years to get *' his collection. Then he decided to photograph the rugs individually. He hired an expert to teach him to take the photographs. After, taking 20,000 exposures, he developed pictures that suited him. Heyl died in 1931 at the age of 85, leaving a 45-room house, the rugs and nothing else to his family. The house was sold and finally it was decided to auction the rugs for what they were worth?their practical worth.

Miss Essie Hawkins Dies Pisgah, Dec. 15.?This community was shocked and saddened on Sunday when it was learned that MIbs Essie Hawkins had quietly passed away in her sleep early Sunday morning. Although it is not known at what hour she died, when she was found at 6 o'clock and a doctor called, the doctor thought she had been dead not more than an hour. She appeared to be in her usual health- when she retired. V c Miss Hawkins was 66 years old on June 17,1936, and had lived her entire life in. the home where she died. She was a very industrious woman; her greatest pleasure in life being serving others, giving of her vegetables and fruit, to her friends and neighbors, and visiting the sick. She was very fond of children and all children loved "Aunt Essie," as most of them called her.' She had been a devoted member of Pisgah church for about fifty years. In the absence of her pastor, Rev. Llttlejohn, funeral' services were conducted by Rev. J. B. Caston, of Camden, on Monday morning at 11 o'clock. Interment was in the Pisgah cemetery. Those acting as pallbearers were: Clarence Hough, Camden; K. R. Kenney, of Rembert; B. C. DuPree, of Spring Hill; Leon Stuckey,-' Cecil Rogers and Ira McManus. She Is survived by one sister, Miss Anna Hawkins; two nephews, S. W. Hawkins of Blshopvllle, and J. M. Hawkins of Rembert; three nlecee, jMrs. J. T. Watson, Mrs. R. C. Ross, Mrs. Charlie Mathis; and several great nieces and nephews, Joe Lewis, negro prize fighter, made $20,000 In Cleveland, Ohio, Monday night in about eighteen seconds, when he knocked Eddie Simms cold before an audience of 11,000 fight fans. Lewis has been paid $300,000 for six fights during 1936. This was the first time Simms had been knocked out in 52 fights.

Some few yearn back when the earth, all itu .works, and pretty much everybody, seemed to be headed for the "deninition bow-wows" there were comparatively few nomuds perambulating through the land, in Hearth of suckers upon whom to operate. llut they are in their floodtime now. Beggars, upllfters, promoters, agents, drummers and every other imaginable brand of interlopers to relieve the weary and heavy-laden of whatever stray shekels may be lying around loose. With rare exceptions, the desire Is to speed the parting guest. With many, their spiels have a purrotty flavor. They usually came single file, but occasionally in pairs. Just once in several full moons a reul oddity and genius appeurs on the scene. The. latest wus the most unique and mysterious in a decade. His name is forgotten, and he wus not asked to open his huge bag of wares, but we are still puzzled to know how to size him up. Whether he was the biggest liaa- in thirty states, or a most remarkable and unusual genius. Handsome aB Alcibiades, active and alert, and a wonderfully smooth talker, he looked to be not over 60 or 65, but swore he is 86. He said that he is worth 5786,000, made as a surgeon, expert diagnostician, and lucky speculator. As a.^ saYnple, that he bought American Telegraph and Telephone stock wholesale. at from twenty-five to ninety dollars a share, which is now selling at 190. He made a dash into his numerous suggestions to physicians and surgeons of the most original panaceas for stubborn ailments ever handed out to the profession. He was then asked the question: "If all tin se tilings and marvels are trub why are you roaming over the country with a huge handbag, trying to sell something, like an ordinary drummer?" He was good and ready with his answer. "A relief to see the world, meet the people, and a breathing spell from the daily drudge In a limited sphere." "As to money," said he, "have you ever seen a man or woman with enough? Why. Henry Ford is worth a billion dollars, is 70 years old. and still making and selling automobiles with as much avidity and pleasure as he did thirty or forty years ago." 1 hat he is a man of unusual intelligence was patent, but I am still wondering whether he belongs to an Ananias club and the most astonishing prevaricator in the country, or a strong substratum of truth In the peculiar biped.?Calhoun Times. ROMAN CU8TOM Columbia, Dec. 22.?When youngsters of today arise Christmas morning to find a rattle in their stocking . . . its Just an old Roman custom. The old Romans made rattles for their children centuries ago, according to. "Ancient Roman Games," a thesis submitted td the Uhiverslty of South Carolina by Ira Smith Irby, in partial fulfillments of the requirements for the degree of master of arts. Roman rattles were made of wood with long handles attached to the axis of a double convex disc with three small stones in it. Other toys need by the children on the Tiber were wheeled horses with arched necks and curved tails.
