Young, editor of The Fairfax Enter prise, and president of the South Caro lina Woman’s Rights association, died here this afternoon at 5 o’clock after a brief illness of pneumonia, SIRS VIRGINIA DURANT YO'.’RG The news of the death oi Mrs. Vir ginia D Young was received wiht sad ness in the office of The State last sight, and with equal sadness w.ll it be given to the people of South Carolina. Mrs. Young was a woman of large soul and in her love for womankind she devoted her whole life to certain principels in which she firmlj belived. She first entered the public service of her sex in the capacity of an officer of the Woman’s Christian Temperance union. Then che became a contrib utor to the columns of the Hampton Guardian, conducted by Col. Me Sweeney, alterwards governor. She wa? given a regular temperance de partment in that paper. Subsequently she orgaeized the Fa : rfax Enterprise, a newspaper de voted to promoting woman’s rights, correcting the wrong done woman, and the advancement of good fellow ship among all mankind. Mrs Young was a tireless worker and a writer 0? fluency, ease and gjaoe. Two or more exended stories in the form of romance bear her name, and have entertained and pleased thousands. Her newspaper style was entirely paefessional and gave dignity to her efforts to-wplift the canse of woman. While hers may have been a mascu line mind, hers was truly a woman’s heart. She was full of sentiment— though far from being sentimental— and her life waa one of love for all mankind. The home of Dr. and Mra i> Young at Faifax waa never cloeed to the stranger, the hack of her hand was never offered to the needy. All found a true Southern welcome under her root She was an advocte of law and order and for the education of woman she strove with a vigor which her frail body did not seem to possess. Her printing office was operated and managed by her women, her whole life was for other women, and the work that she has done will ever be an inspiration to tuoae of her sex who think as she thought, but have not the great courage, the soul unafraid which tenanted the frail body t>f Mrs. Virginia D Young. She was a great pet at the gather ings of the State Press association. At every meeting she wn called npon to read an address, and at several banquets she was asked to respond to toasts, and she did so in a gracious manner. At the meeting at the Isle of Palms daring the summer, she read her reminiscences of the State prear* This paper will be printed in the regular proceedings of the association and will be cherished by its members. A great heart, a virile mind, and a sweet and gentle spirit has passed from the rank of South ° Carolina journalism.—The State. *♦♦——— A Bad Complaxioo . ^ comes from bad blood.

Died at Walterboro, S C, on Oct 18th, 1906, Mrs Essie Hickman beloved wife of W H Hickman and daughter of Mrs F A Rickenbaker. Mrs Hickman’s death was very sad, in as much os she was only 12 years of age, having been a happy wife bat a few short years when God claimed her for His own. She leaves tiro little children, one 3 years of age, and the other a little infant of only 2 weeks, Mrs Hickman’s death is all tbe more sad from the foot that she was supposed to have been entire ly convalescent np to *«few hours before the end. Mrs Hickman’s re mains ore enter red at Bedon’s chorch, the Rev B F Halford having perform ed the funeral ceremony. Mr Hal ford, very seemingly, and touchingly, commented upon the beauty of the deoMMed lifr, and of her early death, Mrs Hickman leaves many friends wham hearts go oat in the deepest sympathy to the bereaved hosbond and family of the deceased, and while we mingle oar tears with theirs in this the hoar of their deep afflic tion—-yet should we ever remember that God nev?r throws his shadows over the sunshine of any life unless for some wise' purpose, and so we humbly bow in sabmimion to His divine will, knowing that it lightens the stroke to draw nearer to him who handles the rod.

No oao will dispute the curative and strength creating valu^offod liver oil For centuries it has beM reaogo'sed as tbe grandest or all healing and body building agents for Ira.ted human strength and vitality. Yet, owing to the heavy, greasy oil which envelopes the medicinal elements, and which baa no va'.ne either m a food or medicine, many patients weakened by disease cannot digest It either in ite raw form or at emniaion, and others will not take it on acoonot of its dlsa greesble odor and teste—consequently its value la lost. . Now, the process die xivered by two eminent French chemists—Morgues and Gantier—should interest every person in Walterboro,Tor ail of th* tonic, body- building and enrative element! of cod liver oil are now ■*parted from tbe greasy, naelese oil, and given to the people in delicious Viool. For this reason is fast enperssding old-fash ioned cod liver oil and emulsions. As a body builder and strength creator for old people, weak women, delicate children, and after sioknefe and ail pulmonary diseases, it is recommended by over 5,060 of the leading druggists of the United Staite at the beet.

THINK MORE—SPEND LESS | WHY is it thst the average man is worth so much less in money and property than we have a right to ex pect him to be? It isn’t because he doesn’t nmka tbe money, for the average man is ii»- 4»strionsJand has earned from |5000 to $15,000 in tbe past ten years It is because be doesn’t give much serious thqpght either to his income or to his outgo. Serious thought would teach him the true value of a dollar; then he would spend carefully and save steadily. That system soon plooea a man ahead of others.
