Dowie's Latest Order.
Apostle Dowie always has express
ed great admiration for President
Roosevelt and has opposed race sui
cide, though he himself has been the
father of but two children. Now,
however, he has taken a practical
step toward putting his ideas into
effect, and toda, he issued a formal
order that henceforth every couple
married in his flock shall lead a little
lamb to the baptismal front every
twelve months.
From now on he wants to know
the size of every Zionist's family, and
all that is necessary will be to know
how' many years the Dowioite has
been married. The members of the
Christian Catholic chturch communi
ty at Zion City, following the com
mands of the first apostle in all
things say they will not halk.
Bishop Coleman of the Episro
pal diocese of Delaware thunders
against the runaway iarriago anl
prohibits ministers within his ju
risdiction to perform the marriage
ceremony for runaway couples.
But what good will that do?
Young men and young women will
continuo to elope, just as they have
been doing from tiien immemorial,
There are as a matter of fact, cer
tain sentimental girls who would
not be contented to get married
in the prosy home-wedding fash
lon. They want the excitoment
and romance of running away;
and their sweethearts are willing
to acconiodate them. And if the
preachers won't read the service
for them, they will go to a magis
trate.
Has a man a right to spit? asks an
exchange, and then it proceeds to
answer the question thusly: "You
bet he has, atnd a right to breathe, a
rig to live and a right to express his
opinion; a right to kick and a right
to work, also a iight to vote and pay
taxes, and to find fault with every.
body and everything he don't like.
Man has a wvhole lot of rights, but
he should exercise them all like a
gentleman."
If one liquor house was anxious
to pay $80,000 a year for $400,000
worth of diepensary business, how
muoh is it probable that other
houses have been paying for the
two to three millions that has been
placed annually in the past several
years? And whore has all this
money gone? for it is not conceiv
able that all this rich graft has
been permitted to escape.
Carolina is reported to be "hold
ing her breath" waiting for the dis
pensary investigation. There is no
use talking, the scent of state liquor
does cling to one's breath powerfully,
but breath holding is painful, and,
cachous, made of mint, are said to be
first class in such cases.
In the Savannah cotton mills the
white spinners refused to handle the
product of the negro cordere and the
mill has had to stop. Everybody re-.
cognizes the color lins except Wana
maker.
"The average politican (does dirty
work before he gets his job, and very
- little of any kind rafterwvard," says
-Watson, who evidently knows where.
of he speaks.
If a mniz bia~ gool hltit is UL
fair for him to ask the Lord to give

- Cut out the Profanity.
Young men don't swear. There
*is no occasion for it outside of the
* printing office, where it .is usefuli
* when the paper is behind timo. It
also comes handy in proof reading
and is indispenselble when the ink
works bad and the press begins to
buok. It is sometimes brought in
to use when them foreman's mad ;
and it has been known to entirely
re~move the tird feeling of the edi.

printing office it is a foolish thing.

A MAMMOTHBUSINESS..
'olger & Thoruley, le'chants---An Enterpris
ing Fir.4
'The Best (Goods for the Least Money" Their
Motto---A Resumie of Their Business.
This is the sixth year that Messrs. Folger & Thornley have
been engaged, as partners, in the selling of goods in Pickens.
They have enlarged their business each year, and each season
have added more goods and better goods, buying a finer
quality of dry goods, clothing, etc., than the buying public
were used to, educating the trading public up to the best the
markets of the world have in store for discriminating pur
chasers.
This enterprising firm carries nearly anything you need, in
fact is one o the best selected stocks of general merchandise
to be found anywhcre. Their business had increased to such
an extent that they had to have more room; the old store,
which is a wooden structure 30X100, was too small, and a nice
two-story structure 40xi 15 feet was built beside this.
*; f
The old store is used for a buggy, wagon and harness re
pository, while the upstairs is used for knocked down buggies.
wagons and repairs for same. The new building is -well fitted
up and a well selected and nicely assorted line of clothing,
dry goods, shoes, etc., is carried in here. The upstairs is
given over to their furniture department, which is replete in
everything nee~ded for the parlor, hail, bed-room, dining-room
or kitchen. They buy furniture direct from the factories in
solid car load lots and can sell you cheaper than the same
goods can be bought elsewhere. Suits range in price from
$1 2.00 to $65.00. They recently sold a large bill of furniture
to a gentleman wvho lives in Seneca, and who had tried else
where and found the Pickens market the cheapest. They fre
quently sell furniture, buggies, wagons~and other goods to
people of other counties.
They hWave bought largely of dry goods this season and are
now opening up a car load of dry goods and notions, which is
the nicest line of dress goods ever bought by them. Mrs.
Emma Majors will have charge of this department and will be
glad to have her friends call on her.
Messrs. Folger & Thornley handle fertilizers, country pro
duce and buy cotton, and they propose to pay the top notch
for produce and the fleecy staple. TIhey are ably assisted in
handling their business by Messrs. G. Rob Hendlricks, David
G. Moore and Wayne F. Mauldin, all nice, gentlemanly sales..
men who wish their friends to hunt them up and they will do
all they can to make it to the customer's interest to trade with
them.
Above we show a nice photograph of their store buildings,
which speaks well not only for this enterprising firm, but a
whole lot for the town and county. As soon as all their goods
are received they will increase their space in this paper, for
they believe ini "p)rinter's ink" and would not try to do business
without its use. Watch for their fall announcement, and in
the meantime if you call on them for any article you can get it
at a reasonable price.

GETTING YOUR BOY
Ready for SChOO;l?;
If so there is no better place in town to get him fitted up from head to foot than this
store. We have just added to our already large stock a number of suits and other
arttcles that we bought with no other idea than that of properly fitting up the boys who
are to leave for the schools and colleges in the course of the next few weeks. We
have added to our boys clothing department this season by putting in the popular
Blumenthal Clothing
for boys and young men. This line is now on sale and you will find it to your interest
to give us a look before buying your fall clothes.
Rernember, we sell goods cheap, but for cash only.
