RiCnterod at the Post Ofice at Pickens as second-class matter. PICKENS, S. C.,: Thursday, November, (1, 1902. Soll your cotton at home, and trade with home merchants. This is good business. *. The col strike is over and fuel prices are coming down within the range of an ordinary man's pocket. * *a Ootton keeps rolling into Pickens because Pickens, even without a cotton mill, pays prices that bring it here. Our buyers are live mi -they pay the top of the market. *5* Let every farmer and every bus iness man lay the foundation broad and dep for a truly success ful year in 1903. Now is the time to commence if we have not al ready begun, and every day that breaks with cheerful sunshine or comes with rain should find us bus ily making ready to take advan tage of the good things to be of fered to us in 1903. KEEP ON TRYING. Personally, it is none of our bus iness, but speaking from the stand point of one deeply interested in the good of every citizen citizen and in the public growth and general prosperity, we want'to say that we are delighted to hear merchants speaking of good collec tions and good business, to know that old debts are being marked off their books with the significant word "settled", and that there is a feeling of independence and liappi ness, the result of plenty, promi nent among the majority of our people. Economy and hard work did this. We want to see it re peated next year. THE NEW JAIL. Pickons county is sooi to have a new jail complete and ready for use. It appears to be a model structure. planned and built af ter a design which represents the re sult of .long study and expor.ence of experts who have made this braneni of architecture a specialty. Mr. Grandy, the con tractor, is rushing the woric and when it is finished It will be anot h1 er advertisement of his ability toi execute and his thorough equip ment for all classes of building. This is a humane step on the part of Pickens county, and the Super visor and Commissioners may congratulate themselves in that they have at last sueceeded ini do ing a thing which only the lack of available funds prevented. thenm from doing before. This jail ii artistic in arrangement and safi for its purposes. 'PICKIINS COUNTY AGAIN. We bever tire of singing thi merited praises of Pickens county There is not to be found. a bettei field for the investor who seeks t< place his money in manufacturing enterprises, or for the man of hum ble means who wants to build home and enjoy the peace and thi pardonable lordly mastery of hii own vine and fig tree. In manufacturing, this county'i achievements so far make but ai index to immense possibilities Pickens county acknowledges n< superior and hardly brooks ar equal. There is energy that it is beini asserted in Pickens county, but there is an infinitely greater amount of it going to waste, while opportunities are drifting by ci going neglected through sheer in, difference of the people. What the people ought to do-what many of them are trying to do i. to get out of debt and on the cash basil, no matter what the publio debt may be, and set to work to develop their own belongings when unity, through a combination of interests, will naturally bring into existenoe larger enterprises and broader public development, The School law of South Caroli na was.framed for the purpose of poviding the best possible school system in the face of bampering londitlons, and further to provide1 tb eby school districts and sohool to 50 th vequIfew,#t# ~'~k pt~* to 4 courage a liberal patronage of the public schools. If the people d not take advantage of the system, its plan is practically a failure, and its good effects will be lost in every community. The provisions for special dis trict taxation by which it is made possible for bettor schools to be operated with longer torms is a fea ture of the law that appeals to the broad-minded, and every omrn1 nity has it within its range of possibilities to operate a school for nine months in every year, simply by voting and levying a special tax, which will carry the schocls longer and after bettor methods, and prove cheaper, in the long run, than the ordinary subscription school, and bring in initely better results. LIBERAL ADVERTISEMENT NEEDED. The Trades Display, planued and carried to success by the busi ness people of Greenville and all public spirited citizens interested in the growth and proper advor tisenent of their city, is a sugges tionl to the business men of towns and cities not so largo as Green ville. .What a place-a place with possibilities of urowth-needs is thorough but true and legitimate advertisement, and in this kintl of a movenent, Pickens might inter eat lorself, assured that all her supporting country would take an interest that would insure the pres out success of the enterpriso with effective and visible results in the near futuro. The accomplish muents we have wrought are mainly the results of the very advantages to which our people, after long delays have finally set their thoughts and hands to develop, and those re sults are but suggestions of the things that can ho done through united eflort, and the exorcise of confidence and patience and faith. Every public enterprise not only helps the individuals having uon ey invested for the purpose of making money; but it h0ps to bring the people of a coninunty into closer relations and to realize their inter-dependence and the good of organization. It atimu ates to the planning of other en terprises and engenders a spirit of fowardness that augments the la tent desires in every community to see that the cormnuity Prospers, and if there is not sufficient capi tal at home to do the things the people want, they will not be long, under united effort, in impressmp the fact of the fitness and readinesi of their community for the devel opment that would be welcomec and aided by every citizen in it. Th one thing needed for Pickens an< Pickens county is broader and comn prehensive advertisement, tha people seeking homes may knos whore to find them in this most fa vored community, and capite seeking inneatment may kno1 something of the handsome return experience has sh,own are to b realized from money intelligenti: invested in Pickens county. A YOUN(G LAD)Y'S LIFE SA1'VED. Dr. Chias. HI. Utter, a p)romfinent phy~ sician, of Panama, Colombia, in a reoin' letter states; "Last March I had as patient a young lady sixteen years c age, wvho hadt a very bad attack of dyse tory.

Dr. Miles'Heart Cure and Nervine Cured Me. There is nothing more necessary to health than sleep and rest. If these are denied.you, if you rise in the morning more tired than when you went to bed, there is an affection of the nerves plainly present. If your heart is weak, or there is an inherited tendency i: that direction, your weakened nerves will soon so affect ydur heart's action as to bring, on serious, chronic trouble. Dr. Miles' Ner. vine is a nerve tonic, which quietsthe nerves. so that sleep may come, and it quickly re. stores the weakened nerves to health and strength. Dr. Miles' Heart Cure is a great blood and heart tonic which regulates the ac. tion of the heart, enriches the blood and im. proves the circulation. "Some time ago I was suffering severely with heart trouble. At times my heart would seemingly stop beating and at others it would beat loudly. and very fast. Three to four hours sleep each night in ten months was all I coultd get. One week in last -September I never closedl my eyes. I got Dr. Miles' Nervine and Ileart Cure at a drug store in Lawrence. burg, after spending $300.00 in medi cines and doctors in Louisville, Shelbvville, Frankfort, Cincinnati and Lawrenceburg, and in three days have derived more benefit from the use of your remedies than I got from all the doctors and their medicines. I think everybody ought to know of the mar. velous power contained in your remedies." W. I[. Iluoiir:s, Fox Creek, Ky. All druggists sell and guarantee first bot tIe Dr. Miles' Remedies.
