Deaths.
Died, at her home in Kirkwood
on the morning of February 4th,
Mrs. John D. Kennedy, relict of
the late General John D. Ken
nedy. Paralysis was, we un
derstand the primal cause of
death. The deceased was in the
65th year of her age. She was
a woman of charming personali
ty, and her loss is most sincerely
deplored by a very large circle
of relatives and friends within
and without the State.

Mr. S. Mc Hall passed into

February 4th, after an illness of
several weeks, and was buried
on Tuesday morning. Mac., as
he was popularly known, was a
thoroughly good man, dying a
Mason in good standing, and
coming strictly within the term
of good report.
He died as he had lived, with
malice towards none, and a warm
lace in his heart for all man
ind. We extend sympathy to
the bereaved family.
Died, on Monday, Feb. 4th Mr.
William Hawkins of the Pisguh

Protect Your Towu.
Protect your own town and
thereby show that you are in
favor of protection. If protec
tion is good for the nation it is
good for the town. As towns
people we should favor our town
above every other as the growth
and development of it is what
will enhance the value of all
property both in and about it.
Then buy your dry goods, gro
ceries, hardware, furniture, etc.,
at home; have your printing,
your blacksmithing, your shoe*
making done at home; patronize
your home in every instance that
you can. The success of our
merchants and mechanics means
new business houses and resi
dences, additional demands for
labor of various kinds. To the
farmer a first-class town affords
a better market for his grain, a
better trading point, and such a
town is bound to increase the
value of his land. Unquestion
ably "in union there is strength. "
Let us protect our town. ? Ex.

State Taxes.
The total amount of taxes for
the fiscal year 1906 ia $3,584,362.?
06, being $900,611.98 more than
in 1902, the last assessment, and
$344,849.22 more than 1905, and
$1,269,088.29 more than in 1880.
The tuxes for 1906 are divided
as follows: For State $1,247,
072.11, for County, $1,182,584.52,
for locul county $65,334.52, and
for schools $748,603.53, ' and for
local schools, $323,267.67. In ad
dition to schools must be added
$200,522.00 poM taxes, and $50,
734.50 capitation dog tux. Total
taxes for schools $1,823,027.49.
The total tax levies through
out the State except local levies,
average 12.8 mills to the county,
the largest being in Union and
Pickens counties, 17.33 and 16.18
mills respectively, and lowest in
Charleston and Kichland coun
ties, 10 and 10| respectively .
This is a pot of money, but
even if taxes do come high, it
seems that we must have them,
and in the eyes of some people,
it seems that the more of them
we have, the better for the
country.
Firat Cremation In Amorica.
The Baltimore Sun Almanac
for 1907, gives among other in
teresting facts, the information
that the first person to be cre
mated in this country, was a
Colonel Henry Laurens of South
Carolina. In his will, he left
the following directions as to
the disposition of his body,
which we are informed were
strictly carried out:
"I solemnly enjoin it upon my
son as an indispensablo duty,
that as soon as he conveniently
can after my decease, he causo,
my body to be w yapped in 12
yards of tow cloth and burned
until it be entirely consumed. "
We are not informed that the
cremation of the body was fol
lowed by the scattering of the
ashes to the four winds of
heaven, and don't suppose they
were. Tow cloth and human
ashes, it doesn't seem to us
would mix well, but these re
mains may yet be preserved with
the proper inscription on the
urn containing them.

is long enough in all conscience.
! To Heaven and b?cJt In 24 Hour?.
Marion, Ohio, Jan. 81. For
more than twenty-four hours
doctors were unable to revive
Miss Bertha Dickerson, au Espy
vilie school-teacher, who went
into a trance Tuesday night at
the revival services at the Wes
ley M. E. Church Miss Dicker
son declared that she had been
to Heaven. She said that she
realized all that was going on,
bdt that she was powerless to
move an eyelash.
Mrs. Eva Thomas, of this city,
also went into a trance, but was
revived in a few hours. She,
too, claimed to have made a
celestial journey. "
Your Life

?The power that gives yotl
life and motion is the nerve
force, or nerve fluid, located in
the nerve cells of the brain,
and sent out through the
aerves to the various organs.
If you are tired, nervous,
irritable, cannot sleep ; have
headache, feel stuffy, dull and
melancholy, or have neuralgia,
rheumatism, backache, peri
odical pains, indigestion, dys
epsia, stomach trouble, or the
idneys and liver are inactive,
your life-current is weak.
Power-producing fuel is need
ed ; something to increase nerve
energy ? strengthen the nerves.
Dr. Miles' Restorative Ner
vine is the fuel you need. It
feeds the nerves, produces nerve
force, and restores vitality.

What Not to Say.
An article written by Berth* Gnu* In
Nr,w Ii>ka Woman h Maoazink for
January takes up the polite nrt of con
versation from h negative point of view
The "dont's" enumerated by the writer
for thfme wishing to be good talker*, are
"I>on't tell long stories of persons! ex*
ffrlcncen, Don't ask trifling questions.
>on't air yotir prejudices. Don't talk
of melancholy or gruesome mat tern.
l>on't speak In a low, monotonouH tone.
I>on't rl?le conversation too hard. I>on't
hinder the oonver&atlon by trying to be
too accurate over detail*. I>on*t go back
and odd appendices to a subject after
you have left It. Don't run one ?tor.v Into
another. Don't atop a discussion by the
clinching use of a proverb. Don't make
a point of always agreeing with the
speaker. Don't harp too long on one
at ring. Don't affect a stilted style.''
After discussing these prohibitions to
talkers at some length the writer con
cludes: "Ktlll.lt must be confessed that
there are people who are constitutional
ly Incapablc -?f following out these rules,*
and who, In spite of all their violations,
are Interesting people. They hnve nstlve
strength and make their own rules of
aelf expression. They are the stuff out
of which novelist* make character-Im
personations. In renl life, as In books,
they odd to the galty of nations. But
they are not exemplar* of the art of
conversation, which requires harmoni
ous halanco In all the give-and-take of
conversational exchange."
