The political pot is beginning to boil, as they say in Charleston, Columbia and Mexico. We have heard of two prospective candidates for the State Senate and as many fot; Sheriff. The worst than can be said against Governor Manning is that he tried to enforce the laws 6f the State, redeem his campaign pledges and do his duty as he sees it. „ As we understand it, all of those Bleasites who worked arid, voted for Blease last suihmer are going to desert Governor Manning in next year’s cam paign.

Psrswanisd—ForsarnaaMl. A girl had a proposal of marriage : Sunday night, and asked a week to •onsider it before answering. She then sized herself intp an investigating eommittee and began taking testimony from the married ladies of her acquaintance. The first one she . used to be a belle and the moat able girl in town before she mar- six years before. The cross-ex amination brought out the fact that she had six children, did all her own work, including washing and ironing, and hadn’t been down town for four weeks, and that her husband had given her bat 12 since she married, and that he bad borrowed and forgot to pay back 110 which her brother gave her for Christmas present. He bought him self a new overcoat with the money, while she wore the same plush coat which she wore when he was courting her. Another woman whom she visited quit teaching school three ago to marry < ‘the handsomest and best dressed man in town,” and she was supporting him ^A third didn’t dare say her soul was her own when her husband was around though she used to write some lovely essays when she was at school on the "emancipation of women,” and the fourth woman she visited was divorced. After visiting them and summing up the evidence, she went home and wrote the young man. She will be married next month. Advertised Letter..

Walker A M. Walker, a gallant veteran of the War Beteen the States, died recent ly at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Bushton, at Langley, his remains being laid to rest beside the body of his wife in the Midway cemetery, after touching funeral services conductedby the Rev. B. D. Bolen. Mr. Walker was born November 2, ISM, being nearly 71 years of age at the time of his death. He served with distinction throughout the war and fought the battles of peace no less nobly. He affiliated with the ML Cal vary Baptist church at an early age and although he was blind for 17 years pre ceding his death he bore his affliction with true Christian fortitude. He was a good father and a true friend, having a heart overflowing with sympathy for his fellow man. In his death the church has lost a devoted member and the home s place that can never be filled. Mr. Walker is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Bushton, of Langley, and Mrs. Black, of Galilee; two sisters, Miss Walker and Mrs. Murphy, of Mid way, and one brother, Ben Walker, of Orangeburg, who have the sincere sympathy of many friends. ^ Notice of Final Discharge Notice is hereby given that the un dersigned will on Thursday, Septem ber 16, 1915, file with the Hon.

Whenever his post office department wishes notices published the news paper boys are notified that there is “no approprtatioh” for such matters, but when the newspaper boys, who do job printing on the side, wish to send a package of printing weighing less than four pounds they find it impossible to secure parcel post rates but are forced to pay one cent for each two ounces. Funny, isn’t it? The people of Barnwell should ap-' plaud the action of the city fathers in passing an ordinance requiring all dogs to be muzzled. This is an excellent precaution and the ordinance should bt rigidly enforced. Human life is too valuable to take any chances in a i of this kind. Hunters, Take Notice!

Pomeroyton, Ky.—In interesting ad vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes writes as follows: “I was down with stomach trouble for five (5) years, and would have sick headache so bad, at times, that I thought surely 1 would die. 1 tried different treatments, but they did not seem to do me any good. I got so bad, I could not eat or sleep, and all my friends, except one, thought 1 would die. He advised me to try ThedionT* Black-Draught, and quit taking other medicines. I deckled to take his advice,' although I did not have any confidence in it. I have now been taking Black-Draught tor three months, and it has cured me— haven” had those awful sick headaches since I began using it. I am so thankful for what Black- Draught has done for me.” Thedford’s Black-Draught has be*n found a very valuable medicine for de rangements of the stomach and liver. It is composed of, pure, vegetable herbs, contains no dangerous ingredients, and acts gently, yet surely. It can be freely used by young and old, and should be i—' kept in every family chest.
