Stock taking is going on this week in
the stores of Bamberg.
Our fanners are evidently preparing for
a big crop the coming year.
Our dealers are selling numbers of
liorses and mules these days.

could do more business it it paid t. u. u. j
The new brick building to be used as
postoffice will soon be ready for occupancy.
Mr. H. J. Bellinger, who has been living
at Snioaks the past year, has moved
to Norway.
Cotton reached fourteen cents in New
York this week, the highest it has been
since the war.
That portion of Railroad Avenue w hich
was clayed a few months ago is sadly in
need of repairs.
The merchants are busy this week taking
stock and getting straight after the
Christmas rush.
The merry-go-round packed up audleft
town Monday, and there are none who
mourn its departure.

Best pearl Tapioca at M. Move's.
If the business done by Tiie Heuai.d
increases as much in 1!?04as it has during,
the past year, we shall be fully satisfied.
The new subscribers are coming in :
right along. We'll get the thousand new
ones if they seep up at the present rate.
The firm of Rhoad & Bamberg is to be
dissolved on January first. Each mem-:
ber of the firm will continue in business
on his own account.
On account of the bad weather the j
prize drill of the Bamberg Guards was j
not held on Christmas day. It will be 1
held some time in the near future.
Judge I'urdy has refused a new trial in !
the case of Pearlstine against Insurance!
Company. The companies will therefore
appeal the case to the State Supreme
Court.
Most of the stores in town were open
last Saturday, although very little business
was done. In fact, some of our
merchants didn't even close on Christmas
day.
Our living expenses have nearly doubled
in the nast few years, yet the price of our j
work is lower if anything. The necessaries
of life are much higher than a few
years ago.
Get your Hour from M. Move. He
handles Obelisk, the very best.
Mr. J. M. Jennings spent the holidays
with his family here. He is at present
engaged in boring a well at Bluffton for
a rich hunting club composed of Northern
capitalists.
It is unusual for no arrests to be made
in Bamberg during Christmas, but such
was the state of affairs last week. We!
sincerely congratulate our people on their
good behavior.

There are a great many people who i
think the newspapers cannot get along
without their countenance and friendship.;
but when they undertake to put the :
theory into practice they find they have!
more need of the paper than the paper!
has of them.
V.'e pubiish in another column a com-1
munication in regard to a crate factory in
Bambeixr. There is no reason why such
ail enterprise here should not pay handsome
dividends, and we believe it would
be a good idea for our capitalists to erect:
the factory.

people in Bamberg. There was no <!is- i

of our people generally to avoid disorder.!

Letter to C. J. S. Brooker, Bamberg, S. C.
Dear Sir: We suspect you'd like the
j tale, how a woman beat two hardware
! dealers in Girard, Pa.
We tried our best to tret those men to
sell Devoe lead-and-ziuc in that bright
I town: and failed. Reluctantly took Mrs.
i E R Bowman, druggist.
They said they couldn't sell paint for
| more than sl.io a gallon. Mrs Bowman
can. She lia^ sold about all the paint,
that has been sold there since.
| She knew Devoe; had sold our artist's
materials. Had some sense and force,
I besides; she ea.>ily learned that cheap is
j dear in paint, and told the people.
Mr Burt Young bought a gallon Devoe
*1 ' W - - _*!_ -- - 11
tor rooms Hint naa always laiieu a gaiiun
of other paint: had half left.
Mr E H Hiler, jeweler, painted Devoe,
and says it goes further?no particulars.
Mr John Hauna. grocer, thought it
j expensive before he bought it: brought
back nearly half of his paint, and said it
j was the cheapest job he ever had.
Mrs Bowman reports universal satisfaction.
So much for a cheap-paint town
with a bright woman in it.
Yours truly

Death of Mrs. M. E. Adams.
Mrs. M. E. Adams, the mother of Mr.
Henry Adams, died at his residence near
town on Tuesday of last week. She had
I made her home for several years with her
t son. She was about seventy-four years
old, and had been a widow for many years.
The burial took place at the Lutheran
church near Clear Pond on Wednesday,
the services being conducted by Rev. T.
J. Saudifer. Mrs. Adams had been in bad
health for some time, and her death was
not wholly unexpected.
Preliminary Hearing.
Magistrate Ligbtsey held a preliminary
last Monday in the case of Dave Johnson,
charged with the shooting of Andrew
Bennett at Midway one night recently,
an account of which has already appeared
in this paper. Bennett was not well
I enough to he present at the hearing, but
he is considered out of danger, and will
j no doubt be all right again soon.
I The result of this hearing was that
i Johnson was bound over to the Circuit
Court on the charge of assault and bat!
tery with intent to kill, the amount of his
i bond being tixed at live hundred dollars.
' !! - cave tin- '><,nd and was released.
Testimony was given blowing that
; John.->11V gun was examined shortly
, after the >h'>otiug '>v a prominent gentle'
man of that section and found to have
1 been !re>hly >hot. and was then loaded
with the-ame kin J of -hot Bennett was

Gone is the Fun-maker,
The little hearts of the town are sore j
this week, there is a hunger which can- j
not be appeased and all because the merry- j
go-round has left the town. When, dur- j'
iug the past month, the daily rounds ofj
play life had become tiresome, there was j
a spot iu the middle of the town where a i
few happy moments were guaranteed. |
The raff-time music which has been echo-!
W I
ed throughout the day as well as night, is |
now silenced. All that remains is one j
huge circle marking the place where the
merriment was wont to be indulged in by j
all sizes and ages, not to mention the |
classes. There are those who wish for j
an early return o? the fun-maker, and it
may be that a few tears will be shed, but
what's the use for it has gone. And we
older folks are mighty glad of it.
A Crate Factory Suggested.
To whom it may concern: From the
experience the writer has had in the
manufacture of fruit and vegetable packages,
the continued increase and demand
for such wares, the conveniences and
abundance of old field pine, poplar and
gum timber to this place, the unexcelled
advantages that Bamberg enjoys in
freight rates over the Southern Railway,
leads me to believe that **2,000 or $2,500
invested in a factory for the manufacture
of packages of all kinds, if properly managed,
will not only pay for itself the first
twelve months but pay a very handsome
dividend, besides open up a market for
this class of timber, a great deal of which
is in the way of the farmer and is hard to
get rid of, but will give employment to
twenty or more men and boys and bring
- A A A - aaa AAA
irom *10,000 lO *Sl/,OUO uuiiuis m uciau iu
the county, the most of which will be put
in circulation at home.
For the last three or four years, this
and Baruwell couuty have paid out over j
*7.5,000 for asparagus and cantaloupe
crates and baskets. There is always demaud
for crates, drums, barrels, and baskets
of some kind for marketing fruits
and vegetables. Besides, if carefully managed,
it is an ail around cash business,
therefore perfectly safe. The same veneering
machines, etc., that will pare out this
lumber from round blocks will get out
1 a
material for boxes, baskets, barrels, drums,
and crates.
The writer will not only take several
shares of stock in an enterprise of this
kind, but will give all his experience in
keeping up the machinery and the general
labor and skilled management of the business,
at a very nominal compensation for
his entire time and exertions. He is now
making a good living for himself and
family, with offers that will pay double
what he would charge to run this factory.
He expects to make Bamberg his future
home, therefore he is willing to link himself
with the enterprising"men of the
place, and assures them that he will be
t/-v tl,n trust nlnrPil nil him. if SO
honored, and their interest will be first,
last aud all the time his greatest pride.
Respectfully, ~ Mechanic.

Paine's Celery
Compound
i
Permanently Cures Sick and
Nervous Headaches that
i
Make Life Miserable.
Sick and nervous headaches are amongst
the worst ills of life. The man or woman who
is subject to headache at irregular intervals,
goes through life bearing a load of misery
and wretchedness that is terrible to think
i of.
I Headaches as a rule, result from a disordered
condition of the nervous system.
Mental excitement, loss of sleep, bodily
fatigue, and disordered digestion are exciting
causes. When the brain becomes tired and
debilitated, the whole nervous system is weakened,
and headaches result. If the liver is
sluggish, the kidneys inactive, and digestion
deranged, headaches invariably follow. To
cure and prevent headache, the nervous system
must be strengthened and vitalized.
The most persistent cases of headache, nervous
feebleness, and sleeplessness, are permanently
cured by Paine's Celery Compound; it is the
great reconstructant of the nervous system.
Mrs. Henry Westrick, St. Clair, Mich., tells
of her release from suffering as follows:?
441 have been troubled with dyspepsia and
sick headache for a number of years. About
every week I would have a bad spell of sick
headache, but since I began using Paine's
Celery Compound, my dyspepsia is gone, and
I do not have any more headaches. I feel
better than I have for years."
