Patent Medicine Ads.
We have no objection to the
introduction of reputable patent
medicine advertisements in our
columns, and after due investi
gation, cordially recommend
those now running.
Box Supper.
There will be a box supper at
Sandy Grove church Saturday
night Oct. 29 about early candle
light for church purposes. The
public is cordialy invited to at
tend. Chronicle and Messenger
please copy.
Birth.
We record with pleasure the
delayed announcement of the
birth of a fine son to Mr. and
Mrs. Henry Eichel on October
9th. We hope the little Eichel
will grow up into as good a fel
low, and as fine a dry goods man
as his father.
Advertising.
If an advertisement in The
People is benefitting the adver
tiser we are always glad to hear
of it. If it (the ad.) is not pay
ing, we will be equally glad to
hear of it. We do not want a
dollar of any man's money for
which we no not give value re
ceived with interest added.
Every reader of the paper
who does any trading with any
of our advertisers, will confer a
spdbtal favor on us' by mentidn
ing that he, she or they saw the
ad. of the merchant in The Peo
ple.
At the Opera House.
The Lovett aggregation of
"Boston Stars" which showed
in our opera house on last Wed
nesday night was a magnificent
performance. No opera com
pany that has previously per
formed before a Camden audi
ence can approach this collection
of Staus in excellence in the
rendering of the various num
bers on their program. The au
dience, while not large, was ap
preciative, and by nutaerous en
cores testified to the fact that a
love for good music, well render
ed still exists to an at least lim
ited extent in the breasts of our
citizens.
More Cotton Pickert*.
The Anderson Mail gives an
account of a record-breaking
cotton picker in that county.
It says:
"On Thursday Miss Lizzie
Pearman, daughter of Mr. John
Pear man of the Honea Path
section, a young lady still in her
teens, picked 600 pounds of cot
ton. This made Miss Pearman's
record for the week, up to
Thursday night, over 2,200
pounds, or an average of more
than 550 pounds per day. On
Thursday a young brother of
Miss Pearman picked over 500
pounds. This beats all the re
cords in Anderson county, so far
as anybody knows."
In last week's Enterprise ap
peared the names of two young
men in the Dwight section of
Lancaster county, W. A. and
Jud Linglo, who in one day to
gether picked 1088 pounds, an
average of 519 pounds apiece.?
Lancaster Enterprise.

ton buyers that only 0 yards of

Stinted out and explained by

Cook, Dr. D. L. DeSaussure and
the chairman, Mr. W. K. Thomp
son.
Resolutions of protest were
prepared by a committee consis

ter protection of the Farming
Class.
