Pickens District embraced t h e territory now known as Oconee and Pickens counties, bounded on the east by Greenville district, on the south by Andei son district, on the west by Tugaloo river, and on the north by *the Georgia and North Carolina state lines. For Pickens district a county site was located twelve miles. from where Walhalla now is, fifteen miles from the present Pickens C. H., ten miles from Seneca, six miles from the con fluence of Little and Keowee rivers, and ten miles from Clem son College. A substantial court house was erected on an emi nence overlooking the crystal waters of the meandering Keo wee. The nearest town was what is old Pendleton. and was inhab- I ited by wealthy, cultured and refined people, many of whom have been distinguished in peace and war. In those days most of the traffic by the farmers of this section was done at Hamburg, whither 'they transpL. I by wagon their surplus produce, consisting chiefly of tobacco,and sometimes "corn juice," which they exchanged for sugar, salt and molasses. Very little cotton was culti vated and no commercial ferti lizers were used. Liens and ag ricultural mortgages were un known. The country was sparsely set tled, but those who wer.- here made their supplies at home, raised their own cattle, mules, horses and sheep; nothing im ported from the west, as now.

H. with t h e i r magnificent churches, splendid schools, flourishing cot ton mills and other industries. Such a thing as "store clothes" were almost unkuown. The spinning wheel and the old-time loom, manipulated by the nim ble tingers of our grandmothers, converted- into cloth the fleece of native sheep, dyed with native herbs. out of which our gar ments were hand-sewed before the invention of the sewing ma chine, that great blessing to women. Our shoes for the most part were made of home-tanned leather with maple pegs. All our socks, stockings and gloves were the product of the knitting needles. When I think of all thi. I wonder how those good old la dies found time to do so much and perform their other domes tic duties. I also wonder how many of our sweet college grad uates would know what to do with a spinning-wheel, old-time loom and knitting needles,to say nothing of preparing a meal with the utensils then used, for they had no range or cooking stove. The first clerk of the court for Old Pickens District was William L. Keith, who held the office for 28 consecutive years and died in office. He was the father of our brilliant W. C. Keith, and four other sons, Thomas, Marvin, El liott and John, all of whom are lead, The second and last clerk of court was James E..

Then just think how distressing it must be to have a cough hang on for two years. Mrs. D. A. McGee, Waycross, Ga., says: "I had a very heavy cold which settled into a chronic cough which kept me awake nights for fully two years, and felt tired all the time The effect of taking your cod liver and iron remedy, Vinol, is that my cough is gone. I can now get a good night's rest and I feel much stronger In every way. I am 74 years old." It is- the combined action of the medicinal elements of the cods' liv ers aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic Iron which makes Vinol so efficient for chronic coughs, colds and bron chitis-at the same time building up the weakened, run-down system. Try a bottle of Vinol with the n derstanding that your money will be returned if it does not help you. Pickens Drug Co.
