' DETRACTION.
We have a low opinion of any man n man |,. ig lo (J .. y
who will attempt to make himself j pr0 p 0rliu
popular by parading the faults of an- i ^ oing l0
otiier—who would pull down bis
competitor in order that he himsell
might rise upon the ruins. Such a
principle is utterly mean, selfish, and
contemptible, and ought to be re
buked by every honest, fairmindeu
man.
Yet the small-minded, cold heart, d,
narrow-souied man acts us a m
thought he and the rest of the worn
are balanced on a see-saw, ami that
if he can make the world go down,
he will go up 5 n the same proportion.
The faults o> another aie n d com-
pliments to ourselves. i;o far fioni
if, to some i xii ot ihej at’, derogatory
to our own charaeL rs, .n as muclt
they are the faults o! tiumun natim
and that in it* essential Uattires is
the same the world over. No mat!
can he absolutely sure ilia’, he would
not commit the same errors that ne
censures in otln rs, if he were placed
in exactly the same ciicumsluiicc.v
and had been subjected in previous
life to exactly (he same intluenecs.
Indeed wiien one is quick to suspect
another or a grinwous fault and ready
to proclaim it, there are good grounds
to suspect that one of being capable i
uf the same fault that lie so vigor
ously censures.
There are men in South Carolina
today who have been elevated to
high position not even for any pre
tended merit o! their own, but for
their skill and persistency in edandcr-
ing better men than themselves.
This is all wrong and wo hope that
people are beginning to see it, and

Star Farm, June 21.—The weather
lias boon very rainy ami dreary for
the last week, but is very clear and
pleasant now. It is fine on cotton,
it makes it grow, fust, and it has such
a fine color. But it is destructive on
corn in the bottoms. Thickety has
been out all ovvr the bottoms and
some think that the corn is ruined,
bu’ l think if the farmers will go in
and sf l it up and crop oil the top that
it will come out and grow and he all
right.

uiei.t Iio rid of the IS. C. A'.. G. E K.
K. obligation, which has b».en bur
(bn., u.io for several jtars, thereby
saving a good sum to bo invested in
other directions, and then the ex
penses incurred by tho town in tiie
foma'i di of a new county is just
about cancelled, which is still an
other relief.
Our town in rapidly building up,
adding more taxable properly yearly.
The exemption from tuxes on the
Gaffney Manufacturing Company’s
plant will expire in lb<)2 and, from
thid source alone, our income will be
nearly doubled. Then the carpet
mill und oil mill will, in a few years,
begin paying in tuxes, utid I candidly
believe by that time, if oui water
works and electric li„ht plant aro not
cramped for want of funds, that it
will begin to have a surplus over und
above expenses, which, in a measure,
will bigiii to reduce our taxes, und
from year lo year 1 hope, from this
source, a considerable reduction in
tux' e injured.

Mrs. Mathilda Richter, Doniphan,
N< !•.,says:
“i Hiiffertid from catarrh for many
fears, but since I have been taking IV
ru-na i feel strong and well. I would
advise all people to try Pe-ru-na. As J
used Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin w liile I was
passing through the change of life, 1 am
positively convinced your beneficial
remedies have relieved mo from all my
tils.”
Pe-ru-na has raised more women from
beds of sickness and set them to work
again than any other remedy. Pelvic
Jatarrh is the bane of womankind. Pe-
ru-na is the bane of catarrh in all forms
and stages. Mr». Col. Hamilton,Colum
bus/)., says: “ J recommend Pe-ru-ua to
women, believing it to bo especially
beneficial to them.”
