There is a tendency on the part of
many of our people to patronize the
great department stores of the North
and West. They imagine that these
stores sell goods a great deal cheaper
than the home merchant. In souve
instance they no doubt do, but in the
majority of the cases when you come
to compare goous and prices you will
find that the local merchant sells
just as cheap, and in a great many
instances much cheaper, than the
foreign merchant. If one would but
stop to consider that the expenses of
running a store in the city is so
much greater than it is in the small
town there would be little to induce
them to patronize the big city stores
in preferoDce to the small town
stores. Rents are higher in the city,
clerks are paid more, taxes are higher
and everything has a tendency to
cost more, while in the small place
rents are comparatively low, clerks
are paid less and the cost of living is
about half, while taxes are a mere
bagatelle to what they are in the big
cities.
It is true that the small town
stores do not carry the large and com
plete stocks that the big city stores
do, but they generally carry about
what their customers demand and
they are always willing to order any
special piece that any of their cus
tomers may want, and we make the
assertion that they will come very
near selling it to you just as cheap
as the big city store.
This tendency on tlie part of the
Southern people to send to New
York end Chicago for goods that they
can buy at home has much to do
with keeping this section poor. Why
not let the local merchant make the
profit that you would give the city
merchant? The manufacturers of
Jihe N ort b the money ic the long
run, but we can see no reason why
the merchants of the South should
not get the profit so generously con
tributed by many to the merchants of
the North and West.
It is the duty of every true Gaff-
neyito and Cherokeean to buy every
thing they can in Gaffney or Blacks
burg or Cherokee county, and to in
sist that,so far as possible, what they
buy is the product of the county.
We have nothing but kindly feel
ings for our brethren of the North,
but it is time enough to patronize
them when we cannot possibly get
what we want at home. They get
quite enough of our money anyway
without sending them every small or
der for things that we could got from
home manufacturers. Patronize home
industry and thus contribute to the
• *
upbuilding of your own Southern
towns and states.

Mr. J. F. Outlaw, of this place,
had occasion to go over to Buffalo
church last Friday, and tells us
the following joke on “Bachelor:”
One of his mother’s hens had made
a neSt under the seat of his buggy
which he failed to discover before he
left home, and be carried the hen to
church and from church he went to
tbe home of a young lady, and as a
matter of course, - the young lady
accompanied Dim when he was eating
his dinner. The old hen had laid an
egg and began cackling, and it
aroused the curiosity and suspicion
of tbe family, thinking that their
guest bad been visiting somebody’s
chicken roost. So the young lady
went to the buggy and raised the lid

DECK OF CARDS FOR A BIBLE

A private soldier by the name of
Richard Lee was taken before a mag
istrate recently for playing cards
during divine service. It appears a
-ergeant commanded the soldiers at
church, and when the person had
teui the prayers betook the text.
Those who had a Bible took it out,
but this soldier had neither Bible
nor common prayer book, but pull
ing out a pack of cards, he spread
them before him. He just looked at
one card and then at another. The
sergeant of the company saw’ him
and said:
“Richard, put up the cards; this
Is no place for them.”
“Never mind that,” said Richerd.
When the service was over the
constable took Richard before the
mayor.
“Well,” says the mayor, “what
have yon brought the soldier here
for?”
“For playing cards in church.”
“Well, soldier, what have you to
say for yoursell?”
“Much sir, 1 hope.”
“Very goid If not, I will punish
you more than man was ever punish
ed.”
“I have been,” said the soldier,
“about six weeks on the march. I
have neither Bible nor common
prayer boon. I have nothing but a
pack of (ards, and I’ll satisfy your
worship of the purity of my inten
tions.”
And, spreading the cards before
the mayor, he began with the ace:
“When I see the ace it reminds
me there is but one God. When I
see the deuce, it reminds me of
Father and Son. When I see the
tray, it reminds me of Father, Son
and Holy Ghost. When I see the
four spot, it reminds mo of the four
evangelists that preached, Matthew.
Mark, Luke and John. When i
meet the five, it reminds me of the
five wise virgins that trimmed their
lamps—there were ten, but five were
wise and five were foolish and were
cast out. When I see the six. it re
minds me that in six days God made
heaven and earth. When 1 see the
seven, it reminds me that on the sev
enth day he rested from the great
work he had created and hallowed it.
When I see the eight, it reminds me
of the eight righteous persons that
were saved when God destroyed the
world, viz.: Noali and his wife,
with three sons and their wives.
When I see the ninth, it reminds me
of the nine lepers that were cleansed
by our Saviour, there were nine out
of ton who never returned thanks.
When I see the ten it reminds me of
the Ten Commandments which God
handed down to Moses on tables of
stone When I see the king, I am
reminded of the King of heaven,
which m God Almighty. When 1
see the queen, 1 am reminded of the
l^ueen of Sheba, for she was as wise a
woman as Solomon was a man. She
brought with her fifty boys and fifty
girls, all dressed in boys’ apparel, for
King Solomon to tell which were
boys and which were girls. King
Solomon sent for water for them to
wash; the girls washed to their el
bows and the boys to the wrists, so
King Solomon told by that.”
“Well,” said the mayor, “you
have given a good description of all
the cards except one.”.
“What is that?”
“The knave,” said the mayor.
“I will give your honor a descrip
tion of that, too, if you will not be
angry.”
“I will not,” said the mayor, “if
you do not term me the knave.”
“Well,” said the soldier, “the
greatest knave I know is the consta
ble that brought me here.”
“I do not know,” said the mayor,
“if he is the greatest knave, but I
know ho is the greatest fool.”
“When I count how many spots
there are in a puck of cards, I find
305, as many days as there are in a
year. On counting the number of
cards in a pack I find there are 52
the number of weeks in a year, and I
find four suits, the number of weeks
in a month. I find there are 12
picture cards, representing the num
ber of months in a year; and on
counting the tricks, I find 13, the
number of weeks in a quarter.
“So you see, sir, a pack of cards
serves for a Bible, an almanac and a
common prayer book.”

The season for revival meetings is
now upon us. A very interesting
meeting is now in progress at Shiloh,
in White Plains township, which is
being conducted by Rev. M. S. Sam*
pies, pastor of tho church, assisted
by Rev. W. T. Thompson, of this
city, who has been doing the preach
ing since Wednesday.
Twenty-one now additions to the
church had been made up to Sunday,
and they were baptized Sunday after
noon. Interest in the meeting is
still high.
A meeting is also running at
Beavcrdam, conducted by Rev. It. J.
Tate, and we learn that it is being
attended by large and deeply inter
ested congregations.
We hope that these meetings will
result in much good throughout the
community.

We are indebted to the thoughtful

Stf.yy, Aug. 3—Mr. Editor: Two
weeks ago in u r iral district, almost
in the suburbs of your town, yoi r

school with twenty-six bright eyed
little boys and g rl < enrolled by the
second day. Soon the roll ran up to

This is a new house and will require
s methiog more before it can be con-
s dered on an average w th other
s 'hoolhouses recently built for com
fort and convenience to the teacher
and pupils. There is no blackboirl
and no writing table; each of the.e
is indispensable Jfor anything .lie
good work; the benches also are
weak and not enough of them to seat
the number of scholars already in at
tendance. We are forcibly struck
already with the kind and warm hos
pitality these people down here greet
us with. While they are almost
wholy a hard working and industrious
class of farmers, they are not to be
outdone in free and open generosity
on all occasions. Neither have we
over me t a brighter or more intelli
gent school of little boys and girls as
a whole than those we have here un
der our charge.
We are now, after a much longer
delay than was ever expected, able to
report our church building at Mace
donia about finished, with exception
to painting. Services will, we expect,
be held in it on Saturday and Sun
day, 10th and 11th inst. Painting
will be done later on.
Our people up here, together with
some of our Gaffney friends and some
of o tr Providence fr ends as weP,
haul ala very enjoyable picnic at
the Mineral Spring on the farm of
our esteemed friend, Mr. W. P. Love.
Almost the entire community as well
as our friends above mentioned, en
joyed a most bountiful and splendid
dinner. The young ladies were out
in great profusion and beauty, while
a great many young men, who were
all blushes and smiles, were as busy
as they could be trying to keep them
entertained.
You have doubtless already heard
of the marriage of Miss Lillie Camp
bell amt Mr. Humphry Camp. These
young people were united in matri
mony at the bride’s home on last
Wednesday by the Rev. R. L. Tate.
Miss Lillie is the daughter of Rev. T.
L. Campbell, who lives near Stevy
postofiice, in this county, and is
greatly beloved by all her friends for
her modesty and refinement. Mr.
Camp is the eldest son. wo believe,
of Mr Peter Camp, who was killed
by the railroad several years ago, and
is a young man of sober and indus
trious habits. We sincerely hope
happiness may attend them througli
a long and successful life.
We arc proud to see the position
Tho Ledger takes in a very able edi
torial in Its first August number on
the subject of improvement in school
management and better pay for
teachers, who do their duly it public
school work. Everybody can plainly
see that there has been advancement
made in the public school fields
within the last four or live years.
Especially is this true in the coun
ties of Cherokee, Spartanburg, Union
and York. There remains, however,
much more to be done.
Rev. J. M. Bridges has resigned
the pastorate of the Macedonia
church. The resignation was ac
cepted by tho church.
Rev. M. T. Davis and his family
have gone back to Texas, their
adopted home. Their return was
somewhat hastened by the marriage
of their daughter here, whom he
thought too young for such an ad
venture. i.. it. i>.
