Those who desire to enter for county offices should remember that their pledge's shoul be filed on Saturday before. This is the first meeting of the campaign, and f: the voters should come out and hear the candidates express their views. A certain married man of our town, while wrestling with the daily problems of life one afternoon last week, received a note from his wife to get her a bunch of velvetine for skirt binding, but in writing the word "skirt" she misplaced the letter "k" with an "h," which made it read "shirt binding." Elated at the prospect of a crispy new shirt with velvetine binding the next Sunday, he canvassed the town from one end to the other but failed to find the desired article, so he dispatched a message to "her whom he adored" that she need not bother to bind the shirt with velvetine but just hem it, as he was not very particular as to the trimmings of that part of the garment. When he reached home that evening he expected to bestow one of his most loving embraces on account of the new shirt he was to receive, but instead he received a first-class Caudle lecture because he did not send the skirt binding as he was ordered to do, and he walked away humming the "Song of the Shirt." ife: I am now prepared to furnish stove f and house wood in any quantities. ^ J.

Dantzler, who is to preside at the July term of court for this county, has signed an order doing away with the drawing of a jury, therefore there will be no jury ! cases tried and no jury drawn for either criminal or civil cases. . Next Monday morning the Clerk of ; Court, C. B. Free, is ordered to convene ' the court of general sessions and immediately adjourn it sine die. On Wednesday morning Judge Dantzler will be here - and the court of common pleas will cou vene, but only equity cases will be heard. * This action in doing away with the July term of court was for the purpose of : saving the expenses of jurors and wit; nesses which are very heavy, and then, ; too, there are no prisoners in jail await; ing trial. So a hardship will not be imposed on any prisoner and money will be saved, which is very important in the ~ present depleted state of county finances. State Campaign Sleeting. [ The State campaign meeting, at which , the candidates for Railroad Commissioner and Congress will address the people, is to be held at Bamberg next Wednesday, the 27th instant. Bamberg county has a ' particular interest in this meeting, as two ? . of her favorite men are in the race. There * is C. W. (Harris, now chairman of the board of railroad commissioners, who is a candidate for re-election, and Senator S. G-. Mayfield, who is a candidate for congress. The voters should turn out ? and show their appreciation of these men. ^ Both men should be elected, for they ^ have served their people faithfully and well. It is true Bamberg is a small county, but we have in these two men as able men as there is in the State. We are proud of them and justly so, so let the voters come to the meeting and give them a welcome. The meeting will no doubt be held in the court house, and am pie provision will be made for the ladies, whom we all hope J will attend in large numbers. Remember the day and date, nest Wednesday, the 27th instant, and be sure to come. ^ "A Word to the Wise," Etc. A piano is a very mystifying instru- 1 ment, especially to those who know notk- J ing of its construction or the scientific principles involved in producing a per- ^ feet piano. This is the reason so ma- 0 ny of our citizens and best class of farm- c ers are humbugged into buying a cheap , piano and very frequently at a very ex- h orbitant price." Some firms have a meth- ti od of sending out flaming literature with Z a lot of testimonials from people who * : knbw absolutely nothing about a piano. * This class of stuff is priced from $500.00 h to $1,000.00, but can be bought for almost tl nothing, for it is worthless in a musical d | eduoation. Then the retail dealer comes along and J ! pushes the cheapest piano he can get for n the biggest price. 1 Don't get picked up by these fakes. You g want the best and can get it. Your chil- s drdh deserve a good piano and an artistic B 1 piano. 1 We note that our greatest colleges use I ^ the Stieff piano. f Elizabeth College, Charlotte, uses it exclusively and has twenty. Converse f , College, Spartanburg, S. U., uses it ex- ^ i clusively and has thirty-six. Brenau 1 I Conservatory of Music, Gainesville, Ga., t uses it exclusively and has fifty. The Baptist Female College, Raleigh, has i placed an order for thirty-one and will ; use it exclusively. Old Salem Academy, 1 at Salem, N. C., has adopted the Stieff. i It is used in many colleges all over the South and East. When the heads of such colleges select i the Stieff piano, wouldn't it be well for i you to profit by their knowledge and exi perience? Besides, the Stieff piano is a g (! Southern product manufactured by a q II Southern man and is sold direct from factory to fireside, saves middleman's profits in your home and you secure the finest piano made. F Also have a fine line of medium grade and second-hand pianos. A letter or card addressed to the Southern Warerooms of Chas. M. Stieff, 2111213 N. Tryon St., Charlotte, N. C., will receive a prompt reply. v .
