A KITTING MONl'MKNT.
Dr. Lodge, President of Limestone
College, has conceived and put in
motion a plan for establishing a
great school of history at Limestone,
to be known as “The Winnie Davis
School of History.” The plan pro
vides for t tie building of a separate
hall on the campus, to be called the
Winnie Davis Hall, which will be a
model of architectural neatness, of
durability, and of adaptation to the
purposes for which it is designed.
While it wiil be devoted to history
at large, it will be a special deposi
tory and emporium for Southern
historical documents of every de
scription and u great center of South
ern historical interest. It is pro
posed further to give this school of
history a modest endowment, so that
it may be self-sustaining and self-
perpetuating, and may go on stimu
lating the spirit of historical re
search and embalming the records of
a glorious past, through the centur
ies to come.
Dr. Lodge has been in communica
tion with Mrs. Jefferson Davis for
several weeks past, and she has given
her full and free consent to the en
terprise, and will stamp it with the
seal of her endorsement and lend to
it the aid of her great and far-reach
ing influence. We have reason to
believe that she will visit Limestone
College sometime in the near future,
not for the purpose of promoting this
enterprise, but in answer to earnest
requests from the president anti
faculty of the college that she come
and mingle in an informal way with
the young ladies and give them some
lessons either formally or informally
on the responsibilities of Southern
women.
The whole scheme is a daring one,
and worthy of the fertile brain that
conceived it, but it is neither chim
erical nor impracticable. It appeals
to the unprejudiced mind every
where, and especially dots it appeal
to every true Southern heart. The
South today is richer in historic
material than any other nation of
ancient or modern times—richer
than Sparta crowned with the laurels
of Marathon a«ul Thermopylae
—richer than Macedon embalmed in
the deeds of J’hilip and Alexander
—richer than all-conquering Rome
after a thousand years of world-wide
domination—richer than France il
lumined with the meteoric splendor
of the matchless Corsican, and than
England backed by her Wakes and
Nelsons, her Marlburos and Welling
tons—richer than all, because she
has nurtured and developed the
noblest types of manhood and of
womanhood that the world has ever
known, and because the deeds that
constitute her historic lore have been
commensurate with these types and
worthy of her men and women.
Shall her rich mines of historic
treasure remain undeveloped, unex
plored? Shall all that precious
treasure lie locked up in the earth
with the bones of her knightly sons
and her queenly daughters? There
is treasure there to enrich the com
ing ages; to stimulate the mind of
youth, to inspire the faint-hearted
with courage, to quicken the languid
and the indifferent into glorious life,
through countless generations. The
living witnesses to the existence of
that treasure are passing away; the
waves of time are beating upon it;
year by year the mould is thickening
above it; and ere long there will be
no eye to mark its location, no hand
to lift it from the depths of oblivion,
no tongue to tell the nations of its
splendor.
Shame on this generation if it he
content to let the glorious past lie
buried and forgotten ! Rut this gen
eration will not, it cannot, he thus
content. I he spirit of the past still
swells in the Southern heart, und
there are more than seven thousand
bravo men and fair women yet left
in Dixie, who have not bowed the

gation.
We have never believed in clap
trap and ad captandumj trickery.
Rut no such arts are in evidence
when it is proposed to use a name
which must ever he pronounced by
Southern lips “softly as the house
hold name of one whom Clod has
taken.” Winnie Davis, the daughter
of the Confederacy! Child of the
kingliest knight of a knightly race,
rocked in the cradle of war with the
bellcwings of cannon for her lulla
bies, yet fair and true as “Sydney’s
sister, Rembroake’s mother,” a pure
exalted type of Southern womanhood
and a queen whose throne was in the
hearts of a whole race of heroes—
what other name could he given to
an enterprise having for its object
the preservation and study of the
records of the trying times in which
her young life shone out of the dark
ness like some gentle star serenely
peering down from a sky black with
angry clouds and rent with howling
tempests? The work itself will take
the name, and the name will impart
to the wori a continual inspiration.

Asiiruv, Sept. 110.—The farmers
are busy picking cotton. They want
to get ready for selling while it is on
the rise; some say they are not uo-
ing to sell until it gets S cents.
Perhaps they will have a large sup
ply before they sell.
We will get scarcely any peas this
year, hut the vines are good
If the farmers / would do as their
forefathers did, a living would be
made as easy again as it is now. A
man that has everything to buy is
not a fanner. What is he? He is
just a man that stays in the country;
if he was a farmer he wouldn’t have
to go to town to buy everything lhat
a farmer needs.

which maps out wh has been

should prove correct, will make a

story from Florence rei as follows: ]
It is now reported • what is re- j
garded as very good afiority, that
the Atlantic Coast Li is the owner
of the Ohio River a Charleston
railroad, the old Ciloston, Cin
cinnati and Chicago.
This will give thc-tlantic Coast
Line a line into tlumountuins of
North Carolina, and it ever decides
to complete the ro: as projected
would put the Coastiue into Cin
cinnati. The road ikes out from
Camden through tin eh and fertile
counties of KershawLancaster and
York into North Oilina, passing
Rutherfordton and Mion. The chief
towns in this state) the line arc
Camden, Kershaw, mcaster, Rock
Hill, Yorkville ni Rlacksburg.
This line has been aeder of the old
South Carolina ever :-ee it was built,
but when the South) bought that
road a provision in e constitution
forbid the ownershi|f the extension,
so it was bought>y the Atlantic
Const Line, which fcaid to be work
ing in very closely th the Southern
in these days and tics.
If this is true, 'hen the Coast
l ine begins to ope.te its trains will
bo run from Floreis through Sum-
tor, tlieu over theNorthwestern to
Camden. This r«l, while it is
owned by Mr. Timas Wilson, is
what might he clod an adopted
child of the Coast Line, and from
h'To the trains woil probably go to
Marion, N. C. Itiight he that in

The work that vs being done in
the matter of theextension of the
r m 1 from RlaeksUrg through the
Piedmont district ns stooped. This
is regarded ns addional evidence that
the line has beeibought by a com
pany that is frienly to the Southern.

WOMAN'S NIGHTMARE.
Ehe Shudders When She Realizes the
Danger and Pain oi’Child-bearing.
There is so much suffering and danger
in store for the young mother, that her
happy anticipation soon gives way to a
feeling of dread at the thought of the
pain winch she must undergo. This
constant f eu* so preys upon the mind of
many women that it tills them with ter
ror and makes baby’s coming a source
of Die greatest anxiety and dread.
All the suffering and danger of the
ordeal can be avoided by the use
of “Mother’s Friend,” which prepares
the body for this important event. It
relieves “morning sickness,” ami many
other unpleasant conditions which ex
ist during this time. Thousands of
women praise “Mother’s Friend” for j
bringing them safely through the most
critical period of their lives.
Every woman should send their name
and address to the Bradfield Regulator
Co., Atlanta, Georgia, and receive free,
valuable information on the subject.

The Time Comes
to every elderly •woman when an im
portant functional change takes place.
This is called “The Change of Life.”
The entire system undergoes a change.
Dreadful diseases such as cancer and
consumption arc often contracted at
this time.
McELREE’S
Wine of Gareiui
strengthens and purifies the entire
system, and brings the sufferer safely
over these pitfalls. Its effects have
been wonderful. It is jjood for all
menstrual troubles, but is especially
recommended at this time. Ask
your druggist for the famous Wine of
Cardui, i«i.oo a bottle.
For advice ia cases requiring special
directions, address the “Ladies’Ad
