Why do you spend your money for ]

Merry Widow from C. R. Brabham's '

to pay for the common kind elsewhere?

An advertisement is to a merchant
very much what sowing seed to a
fanner. It may take a little time for ;
the results to become apparent, but c
they are sure to come. The wise
farmer is not niggardly with his seed,
nor the wise merchant with his advertisement

You will certainly make a mistake J
tif you buy a buggy or set of harness
without seeing G. Frank Bamberg's
fine. He has competition beat a
mile.
A handsome monument was erect[J
\ ed in South-end cemetery last week
to the late R. M. Hays. It was sold
by the Southern Marble and Granite

ts elegant, and it is one of the handsomest
in the cemetery.
If you want the best 10c plug of

It is likely that all the stock in
the dispensaries in this county will
be sold out before November 15th,
the date for the closing of the dispensaries.
There was not a large
stock on hand at the date of the election,
and of course no further supplies
have been bought by the county
board.
There are several big plugs of tobacco
sold in Bamberg for 10c, but
if you will try Merry Widow one
time you will be satisfied that you
have found the best. Get it from C.
R. Brabham's Sons.
Our merchants generally report
trade as being very good these days.
Every merchant in Bamberg is kept
busy every day, and the people as a
rule are purchasing fall goods liber- (
ally. When you trade with a merchant,
tell him you saw his ad. in The .
Herald. It will help both you and
this newspaper.
Go to G. Frank Bamberg's and buy
you a nice new buggy and set of har- 1
ness. He will sell you at right
prices. <

this is the place to trade.
You may have noticed that the
men of this town are a pretty stylish
looking lot of men. It's pretty largely
due to the fact that C. R. Brabham
's Sons are selling so many Hart
Schaffner & Marx clothes.
Last week the Secretary of State
published a statement showing the

In a letter remitting for his subscription
to The Herald, Mr. C. C.
Fields, of Odom, Ga., writes us that
the farmers of South Georgia are j
gathering their cotton rapidly. Sea
island cotton is bringing 23 cents a
pound, arid upland cotton has reached
the 14 cents notch.
Horses, mules, buggies, wagons,
harness, etc., at Jones Bros. Prices
reasonable. A new load of stock just
received.
The high price or nour at mis ume,
with no prospect that it will be lower
for some time to come, ought to impress
farmers with the importance
i>f including wheat in the crops to be
planted for another year. On nearly
svery farm there is some land suitable
for wheat, and with ordinary
3are in planting and protecting
against stock in the early months of
the year a good yield is reasonably
jertain from such land.
If you care to save money on bagging
and ties, get prices from us. We

THIS STQR1
The Civic League.
The Urst monthly meeting of this
winter's serifes of sessions of the Civic
t .on cmo of Rn m hftre was held in the
ladies' rest room on the last Thursday
afternoon in September.
Quite a number were present, and
interest in the work, which has
seemed to lag during the summer
months, has again been revived
among the members.
After the regular business was
rway mamhora wprfl invited to make
suggestions as to the needed improvements
and decisions as to where the
first work had best be done. Many
comments were made upon the dusty,
unkept appearance of waiting room
at depot. It seems that a man is kept
here whose duty it is, among other
things, to attend to this room. It
was decided that the president should
request the agent to see that this man
did not neglect his duty but should
give the waiting-room a thorough
sweeping and dusting each morning,
airing the room each day and keeping
the .sashes clean.
A petition was then made by the
lady teachers of the graded school
that an unoccupied room in the school
building shouldl be fitted up by the
Civic League to be used by them in
the care of pupils who are taken ill
during school hours. A committee
consisting of Mrs. Moye Dickinson
and Mrs. C. R. Brabham, Jr., was appointed
to fit up the room, and several
contributions, consisting of a
feather pillow, cases for pillow,
sheets, etc., were made by the ladies
present.
The advisabillity of having some
form of entertainment for the raising
of funds was then dicussed.. A
committee was appointed to formulate
plans for a carnival or fall festival.
This carnival would mean a
great deal to Bamberg in an advertistn?r
WAT drawing a hie crowd for the
day, and so benefitting the merchants
as well as furnishing the means by
which the League hopes to make
Bamberg a cleaner, healthier, and
more beautiful town. But without
the co-operation of the business men
it is impossible for ladies alone to
successfully prepare for a carnival.
It is also impossible for a few
ladies to do this, but with the entire
town working together, a most magnificent
and successful carnival can
be the result. A wise man once said:
"There are three kinds of people in
the world: the wills, the won'ts, the
can'ts. The first accomplish everything;
the second oppose everything;
the third fail in everything." To
which class do we members belong?
The Cotton Market.
Cotton is selling in Bamberg to
day (Wednesday) at thirteen cents
the pound. The receipts of the past
week were one thousand bales and
upwards, and the receipts here for
the season are about seven thousand
bales. Some farmers have about finished
gathering, while others have
part of their crop still in the field.
The weather this fall has been very
dry, and no bad cotton has come to
this market.

' Rally Day Sunday.
The workers of Trinity Metnoaisi
Sunday-school will hold a big jally
day this coming Sunday. In .the
afternoon the regular Sundayschool
hour will be devoted to carrying
out a carefully selected and
well prepared program. The school
will be largely represented in the exercises.
That is to say that the exercises
will not be given by only a
few of the pupils, but a large number
will take part in them.
The general purpose at this time is
to rally the forces of the school and
have all of them come together again
after the summer time and band
themselves together with renewed determination
and energy. Especially
are the efforts being made looking toward
building up the Bible class
which has held up so well during the
summer. It is no longer the truth
that the Sabbath^chool is a place
for the children alone, but it is now
a recognized fact that the older folks
have a place in the school and the
old idea of "sending the children to
Sunday-school" has been displaced by
the broader and more intelligent
view of "Let's go with the children
to their school on Sundays."
It is hoped that everyone will take
advantage of the general invitation
and be present next Sunday afternoon
at 4 o'clock. Cards will be
found convenient whereon your name
may be written if you desire to join
the school.
If it is a nice silk suit you want
for your best fall suit, Hooton has
all the new ones.
Card of Thanks.
It is impossible for me to see each
one personally, so I take this means
of extending my sincere thanks to
each and every one of the kind
neighbors and friends who extended
so many kindnesses during the recent
illness and death of my father.
Words cannot express my gratitude
to you for your many acts of kindness,
and with a heart full of gratitude
to each and every one of you,
I can only thank you from the depths
of my heart. YourB sincerely,
C. C. ROWELL.
Woman's Home Mission Society.
The regular monthly meeting of
the Woman's Home Mission Society
will be held next Tuesday afternoon
promptly at 4 o'clock in the ladies'
parlor of the Methodist church. A
large attendance is desired; Mrs. J.
M. Jennings and Mrs. Stella Brunson
nave attended me ou&ie tuuiacutc
in Sumter, and we can safely promise
the members that these ladies will
give the most minute details of that
meeting?a report which no member'
should allow herself to miss, if she
wishes to keep in close touch with
the great work we are doing. '

Methodist Church to Have Paid Choir.
At a meeting of the board of
stewards of St. Pauls Methodist
church, an important step was taken
looking towards having a paid choir
at that church. The move is an important
one, and it is expected that
as soon as arrangements can be made
that singers will be engaged, and that
the singing at this church will be
something out of the ordinary.
According to the action of the
stewards, Mr. O. K. Wilson has been
given entire charge of the choir, and
he will have charge of employing the
singers who will furnish the music.
The money for the singing will be
turned over to Mr. Wilson and he
will have complete charge.
It is probable that Mr. Wilson will
employ a quartette for the choir, and
- --- ?- ^tii
these togetner wun iw; ursauisi, nm
furnish music at all of the church
services.
The paid choir will not be inaugurated
at once, however, but will be
started at the opening of the conference
year.-?Orangeburg Evening

In Memory of G. Powell Rice.
Just one year ago our loved one
was called a by a loving and merciful
Heavenly Father to his eternal home.
His going left an aching void in each

knowing that "He doeth all things
well." One Who Loved Him.'
