CONSIDER WHAT'YOC READ.
The greatest difficulty encountered
by those who endeavor to accomplish
something for the benefit of human-1
ity is to get the masses to think—to i
consider. If it were poisible for us :
to attract and hold the attention of:
even a fourth of the population of
Cherokee county on any one subject
of vital intirest to them and to so;
impress our views upon them that j
they would calmly and deliberately
consider the mutter, we could accom
plish wonders. But the trouble is
that peopl:—the masses—do not
think. They may read an argument,
but as a rule they no sooner read an
argument than they lay aside the
paper or book and dismiss the matter
from their mind.
Another difficulty is to ever get,
people to read. The other day a gen-!
tleman of intclligooce who wields a j
great influence in his own town, in
fact ttie mayor of his town, was in j
Gaffney, and during his stay here
called on The Ledger. In the course |
of conversation wo enquired of a per- j
annul friend who was engaged in the
newspaper business in the town from
which our visitor hailed. The visitor
knew our friend personally—in fact
they were warm personal friends—
but when we ventured the aescriion i
that Mr. So-and-so had improved his
paper considerably and was getting
out a remarkably bright sheet, our
visitor reluctantly replied in sub
stance: “Weil, I hadn’t noticed it.
To tell you the truth, I don’t read
my home paper as studiously as I
should.”
This is •• isolated case. Right
here in G.lL.ey there are men wn >
pay for The Ledger year in and year
out who remain woefully ignorant of
what is going on in tno. communitv.
They are too busy to read even so i
small a paper as The Ledger. They
perhaps subscribe for one or more
daily papers, their local papers, and
two or three weeklies or magazines,
but to save their lives they could not
tell you what was in one of them ]
They read the headlines and if the
subject attracts their attention they |
skim through the article. If the
headline does not attract their atteu-
tion they skip the article altogether. |
The ladies—and may God bless j
them—read the local paper religious-1
ly. That is perhaps due to the fact;
that they are not so engrossed in
business. Certainly it is not because
they have more time to give to read
ing than do men, for their work is
never done. They take the time,
and as a consequence there is hardly
a lady in Gaffney or Cherokee county
that cannot tell you of what is going
on in the community. It is to their
credit that they take so much inter
est in local affairs.
Our people need to read more than
they do. But what is of more vital
importance y it is that you consider
what you read.
time ago our contemporary expressed
himself as fully prepared to believe |
in the tangible existence of the Rocky
Mountains although be confessed be
had never seen them.—Spartanburg
Journal.
Correct, Sir Charles! And if yon
have as good reason for believing Mr. ;
Cleveland a party to a fraudulent
transaction as wo have for believing ,
the Lexington jury was packed or that,
the Rocky Mountains exist, we
haven’t another word tc utter on the
subject.

A GRAND REUNION.
FATAL FAMILY FEUD.
Gathering of the Confederate Veterans In !
Augusta, Ga.
We are never so proud of our grand
old Southland and her brave heroes
of the past as when we see them in a
reunion. Augusta is the loveliest
city of the South, and her broad ave-;
oues and hospitable gates were
thrown openlast week to the reunion
of old veterans of Georgia, with other
statesin line.
All trains brought in hundreds of
people until the streets were a moving
mass of human beings. Ail the
buildings were gaily decorated and

Hickson, directs our attention to the ; ftD(j8 Qf oolored , ights makjng thp
fact that Senator Tillman refuted all w hole a grand picture. Imagine
the charges made against him for ap- j yourself in a second story window
propriatiog to his personal use the
product of the State farm and some
of the manufactured articles of the
penitentibry. We acknowledge that
the senator’s refutation had escaped
our notice and apologize if we have
made a misstatement of fact. Our
recollection was to the contrary.
Mr. Hickson suggests that it would
be the proper thing to let these old
matters drop and we are not prepared i
to say that his suggestion is rot
good one.
The one-horse farmer who has had
the business prudence to buy a small!

industry and judicious management

grain and long forage to make bread | Confederates.”
for himself and family and to feed
his necessary farm animals, and then
has plenty of home-raised meat and
milk and butter for home consump
tion, is as independent as a bank
president or the richest merchant in
his section.. We believe more so. His
every action is above board
known to the world. He rather
lights in talking of his methods,
plans, and is genenlly willing for the
world to know of his failures and suc
cesses an 1 what caused them. He i
devoted to his family, loves his worthy
neighbors, has contempt for the
vicious, be they high or low, and the
mat hood to express it. He walks
the earth erect, a man not afraid.
viewing the parade which was miles
in length, with Gen. C. A. Evans, of
Atlanta, an old and revered warrior
of past glories, in lead, then the old
veterans in their numerous com
panies old and disabled passing along
amidst cheer after cheer, until it
seemed as if the whole earth were one
hurrah ! Then sons of veterans, with
grandsons of veterans.
One scene in my mind, while ludri-
crous, was also pathetic. An old
darkey with hair white with age, in
his old master’s company with a sack statements made above,
thrown across his shoulder tilled with
vegetables, and a rooster beneath
each arm, showed what he did in the
old days, and when spoken to he
made this remark, “I will stick by
dem fellows long’s I live.”
While standing with a few friends
watching the mass of people, an old
veteran (Phelps by name) walked up
and asked if we belonged to the
Daughters of the Confedraoy. I said.
Milam Anderson Kills His Cousin
In Richmond County.
Augusta, Qa„ Nov. 11.—A' family
feud has resulted in the killing of
Howard Anderson, a young man of
19, by his cousin, William Anderson,
aged 22. They are both residents of
the county, and the shooting occurred
in the public road, about 7 miles from
town.
In July, 1902, Howard shot William,
severely wounding him, and there has
been bad blood between the families
for years.
There were no witnesses to the
•hooting, but William states that he
met Howard, who was hauling a load
of w’ood, and that as they neared each
other, Howard shot a hole through
his (William’s) hat, whereupon he re
turned the Are. Howard jumped from
his wagon, ran a short distance, and
fell dead.
It Is claimed by members of How
ard’s family that be never had a pis
tol, and that parties who were in
nearby fields heard only three shots
fired, and there are three wounds In
Howard Anderson’s body.
William gave himself up, and was
liberated on his statement of the diffi
culty, but subquently arrested on the
MALARIA
Germ Infected Air,
Malaria is not confined exclusively to the swamps
and marshy regions of the country, but wherever ‘there is
bad air this insidious foe to health is found. Poisonous
vapors and gases from sewers, and the musty air of damp
cellars are laden with the germs of this miserable disease,
which are breathed into the lungs and taken up bv the
blood and transmitted to every part of the body. Then
you begin to feel out of sorts without ever suspecting the
cause. Ko energy or appetite, dull headaches, sleepy and
tired and completely fagged out from the slightest "exer
tion, are some of the deplorable effects of tins en.cabling
malady. As the disease progresses and the blood becomes
more deeply poisoned, boils and abscesses and dark or
yellow spots appear upon the skin. When the poison is
left to ferment and the microbes and germs to multiply in
the blood. Liver and Kidney troubles and other serious complications often -
arise. As Malaria begins and develops in the blood, the treatment to be
effective must begin there too. 8. 8. S. destroys
the germs and poisons and purifies the polluted
blood, and under its tonic effect the dei,dilated
Jj constitution rapidly recuperates and the sys; t u is
soon clear of all signs of this depressing*di:.; se.
S. S. S. is a guaranteed purely vegetable remedy, mild, pleasant and
harmless. Write us if you want meeboa! advice or any special informa
tion about your case. This will cost > on nothing.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
Albert Turner, an Ohio negro, was
recently sentenced to fifteen years ut
hard labor in the penitentiary for
stealing 40 cents. Turner should
have been a white Republican in the
post office department, where large
speculations entail no punishment.—
Orangeburg Patriot.
One thing is evident, to our mind.
No candidate can be elected President
oo the Kansas City platform.and if
Cleveland, or a man of bis stamp; can
who nad the honor of
named for her.
The queen of the reunion was a
little lady from Kentucky, Miss
Laura Galt (fourteen years of age),
who in refusing in her school to sing
“Marching Through Georgia,” was
sent home, and in this act she has
made herself the heroine of the South.
This Kentucky rebel was feted and
hurrahed over and has made herself
famous. 8he was met at the depot
by the veterans with a carriage drawn
by four white horses, and entertained
with her mother at the Albioo Hotel.
When riding in the parade, with
Judge Duular, an old one-armed vet
eran, she wore the Confederate colors,
while a dainty little cap nestled on
her golden curls. She was made spon
sor for life for the State of Alabama.
A voting contest was on for
queen of the carnival and it seemed
as if an Augusta girl bad won, when
lo, the old vets in a few hours passed
in enough votes to elect their little
Southern champion So eager were
they lo know the result of the elec
tion that they lingered around the
box till past midnight, and on Friday
afternoon at two o’clock Miss (rail
was crowned queen of the carnival
and on hei finger glistened a diamond
ring, the prize.
The following is bow she won camp
485:
“MISS GALT AND HOW SHE WON
camp 435 ”
“Four days ago she came among
us, our fair Kentucky flower, with
roses on her girlish cheeks and sun
shine in her hair. We had never!
known her. We had never looked
upot; her fair young face nor felt the
ntessure of her little hand. We only i
knew that in her hero heart there
burned the fire of brave Confederate
ancestry—that loyal to their name
and fame she had refused to stain ‘
her pure youog lips with iusult to
their memory. And for this we loved
and honored her.
“And now in kind compliance with
I our bidding she has been for these
, November days, while the reunion
' spirit was in the air and the tattered
Hans awoke to life again, our feted
i guest And yet she wears the honors
! 1j» aped upon her with such lavish
hand so meekiy anc so modestly and
her bearing towards her old Confed-
j erate comrades has been so gracious
and so winning that our afLcriou for
herself and our reverence for her
brave young deed has be*'u intensifi d
a hundred (old We love the Blue
i give thanks unto the Lord, for He is
good, for$His mercy endure‘b for
ever.” So let us, the people of Gaff
ney, in response to His call, go forth
on Thanksgiving day at the time and
the place appointed to render unto
the Lord our dues.
Thanksgiving day is not merely a
national holiday or feast day but a
day of thanks-—a time when we
should worship the Lord, with our
substance, by remembering the poor,
the widow and orphan. Special serv
ices, tonduoted by the pastor, will be
held at the First, Baptist church at
eleven o’clock on that day, and the
people are earnestly requested to at
tend this service and to come p r e
pared to give liberally to a most
worthy cause—the Orphanage of our
the ! State. .
The collection will be divided
among the three Orphaneges at Col
umbia. Greenwood and Clinton.
Surely every one has something
for which to praise Go t, and how fit
ting to show your appreciation in
this way “by doing it unto Christ’s
little ones.” Let us not forget the
eleven o’clock hour on the 26’h, and
if you can not come to the service
don’t fail to send in your contribu
tion for this cause.
Yours in Christ,

Hypnotiniu.
According to Charcot of the school
of the Salpetriere. hypnotism is an arti
ficial neurosis and can be produced
with hysterics^ persons only, ft cun
be applied but rarely, the dangers of
hypnotism being greater than its ad
vantages because it may bring to life
the latent hysteria and unbulance the
nervous system. Liebault and Bern
heim, the founders of the Nancy school
assert the contrary—that nothing can
bo more erroneous than the above men
tinned supposition; that every person
is more or less suggestible, and that no
harm or inconvenience whatever re
sults from hypnotization, provided the
suggestive method be used. The Nancy
school defines hypnotism as a physio
logical state, closely allied to sleep, in
which the suggestibility of a person is
greatly exalted. It bases hypnotism
and its therapeutic action entirely on
suggi ♦ion.
William WhlHonaut.
The subject of this sketch was
born September the 9th, 1820, and
departed this life November the 11th,
1903. So “by reason of strength”
he reached his fourscore years, and
three more besides. Sixty-five of
these were spent in active service fur
the cause of Christ, having identified
himself with Hopewell Presbyterian
church in his eighteenth year. For
quite a long while he filled ihe office
of elder.
When about twenty five y<-ars of
age he was married to Miss Lucy Ann
Fulton. There were born unto them
ten children, four of whom preceded
him to the grave. Having lost his
wife, he was married the second tune
to Mrs. Nenoma Hamrick in 1868
She passed away about twelve years
ago
Mr. Whiaonunt was a most earnest
and active Christian. He believed in
doing something. His life was
above reproach, and he ever availed
himself of the opportunity to work
in Sunday schools, prayer-meeting
and everywhere else that he could
strike a blow for the Master.
A few weeks b°fore his dea f b he re
quested the writer to preach his
funeral whenever he passed away,
though be was a Presbyterian and the
writer a Baptist. His nque-H was
complied with and the day after
his death, his funeral was conducted
from the Presbyterian church in
Blacksdurg. after which, on a beauti
ful knoll in the new ctmetry, w* st
of the town, his remains w\ re laid to
rest, to await the morn when “Christ,
Himself, shui! desconfi from h-aven
with a shout, v irh the voice of the
arch angel and the trump of God, and
the dead in Christ shail risi tirsi.’’

Proverbs
“ When the butter won’t

churn,” is an old time dairy
proverb. It often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them Scott’s Emul
sion.
It is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
Scott’s Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver Gil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children Scott’s Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment. '

£ The manager of one of the most
successful furniture houses in
Greater New York was asked to
what one thing, in his opinion,
the success of the concern was
most due. He replied:
“The founder of the firm was a great
believer in advertising, and to this fact
may be ascribed the enormous busineaa
we are handling.”
There is no business, however
small, that cannot be increased
by judicious, systematic, per
