Some People Can’t
Eat' Bread.
M
'f.
ii •
Bread is reputed to be the
staff of life.” Yet there are
some people who never eat
bread.
We allude to this because of
a curious parallel fact in medi
cine. We recommend Vinol
and sell it on a guarantee of
money back if it does not bene
fit the user. We don’t expect
Vinol to help everybody. Yet,
strange to say, out of every one
hundred bottles sold, less than
two per cent, proved unsatis
factory. In other words, ninety-
eight out of every hundred
found Vinol of value—many of
them great value.
We want to say that if you
are run-down, weak, too thin,
ailing, with bad stomach, poor
appetite, cough, nervousness,
that we think Vinol will help
you.

A Small bat Appreciative Audience Greeted
Mrs. LeMoyne and Company.
The one hundred and fifty people
who greeted Mrs. LeMoyne and com
pany in “Among Those Present'' at
the Star Theatre Saturday evening
received the worth of their money if
one considers it possible to receive
the worth of their money by witness
ing good acting. The work of the
players was simply great. Mrs. Le
Moyne acted the part of Mrs. Clinton
as if she was created for the part
rather than the part created for her.
Mr. Harold Russell as Dr. Clinton, a
retired physician, was equal to Mrs.
LeMoyne. Miss Anita Zorn, as Mrs.
Parker, the widow, sustained the
part in a most acceptable manner al
though that was her first appearance
in the part. Miss Cornelia Hunter,
as Alice Kane, a professional brides
maid, was clever, as was also Mr.
George Douglas Parker, as Tommy
Dodd, a court clown, William Hazel-
tine, as Howard Pembroke, a Wall
Street broker, William Clagett, as
Reggie Keene, Miss Carlotta Nillson,
as Countess Lavendan-Lautrec, Miss
Martia Leonard, as Mrs. Van Cor-
lears, Mr. George Gaston, as Mr. Van
Corlears. The remainder of the cast
was well balanced.
Altogether the performance was
one of the best given in Gaffney and
deserved a much better patronage
than it received. •
Those who admire strong acting,
exciting situations and thrilling cli
maxes should avail themselves of the
opportunity to witness Nathan Hale
next Saturday night. Mr. Howard
Kyle is one of America’s leading
actors. He studied law and taught
school before he went on the stage.
He is an orator of considerable ability
and would demand a large salary as a
lecturer, but prefers acting. He is
a polished, educated gentleman who
is in love with bis profession and no
one can witness his performance
without being elevated.
Three free Seats.
The Ledger will give two $1.00
tickets to the school-boy or girl under
sixteen jears of age who will write
the best essay on “Nathan Hale’’ the
martyr patriot, and one seat and a
years subscription to The Ledger
to the second best essay. These
essays must be submitted by
Thursday noon and the best
one will be published in Friday’s
Ledger. To every scholar selling
$10 worth of tickets one of the best
seats in the house will be given.
Choctaw Chronicle*.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Choctow, Miss., Nor. IK).—The
health of our community is very
good. Crops are very near all gatb.
ered. The corn crop is somewhat
short, only about half a crop; cotton
about two-thirds of a crop. Cotton
is bringing from 7c to 8c per pound;
flour $4 per barrel; meat 13c a
pound. Winter set in on the 27th
with a snow storm from the north
west.
The writer wants to find out some
thing through The Ledger columns
about the’manure driller that was
put up by Banders and Lindler, of
Jackson, Ala., as be thinks they will
sell well in Mississippi.
You will find enclosed $1 for The
Ledger for 1903; that means for The
Ledger to keep coming.
There is something in your col
umns some time ago about molasses
making in that State and Texas, so I
will give a few items of old Choctow
molasses, aspecially the ribbon cane.
The writer bad nearly one-fourth of
an acre in ribbon cane and put nearly
one-half of it down for seed and made
73 gallons. So you see what one acre
would make—twice 73 or 146 and
four times 146, which is 584 gallons.
I am not boasting, but if anyone dis
believes me let him come out here
next September and see for bimseif..
I have bought a small tract of land
containing 120 acres. It has as fine
a spring on it as ever boiled out of
the earth, and has a railroad surveyed
in half a mile of it. It would be a
nice cotton mill site. It runs 50 gal
lons per minute, roc)c in abundance
close by for building purposes; eight
miles south of Ackerman, seven east
of where good timber is, which is so
badly needed in this country.
