From accounts received it appears that the officer attempted to search the negro’s house for whiskey, and the negro and three other negroes who were pres ent, engaged him at once in a scuf fle and took the constable’s stick away from him and attempted to use it, when Davenport drew his pistol and fired, with the above result.

Mr. Xeeley recovered the body promptly, but all efforts to re- susticate her failed. Singleton Banks, white, charged with murdering in a most horrible manner his son-in-law, Smith Cock erell, in September of last year, was acquitted at Saluda court a few days ago. The testimony on the part of the State consisted in the proof of murderous threats to the effect that he intended killing Cockrell. There were no eye witnesses to the crime, as the young man was shot after dark at Ids home and no testimony to connect Banks with the killing Several members of Banks’ family testified that when the shots were fired, the defendant was sitting at his supper table.

While he was here one of his old patrons who lias been suffering with an eye trouble, had him to examine the organ to see what was the matter with it. Taking a vial of medicine, he began pouring out some for the sufferer, and telling him how to ap ply it. He jocosely remarked. ”1 in tend to do all I can to help the poor.” If that is your object, Dock, we as sure you you will never lack for pa- tiens in this life. Mrs. S. F.

Taken all together the farmers i are well up with their work. They have had no special hindrance as yet. ! Wheat in some places looks pretty well. An old experienced farmer once said that for wheat while growing to have a rich green color was not as favorable a sign for a good crop as for it to have a brownish green color. Most of what we have seen has the duck green color this season. Mrs. Jennie Sparks, of Clifton, has sent Miss Ethel Strain a lot of flower cuttings. Mrs. Sparks has cabbage in her garden that are getting ready to head up. Mrs. Rebecca Osment. of Gaffney, is spending a few days with Miss Amanda Bratton and helping to at tend her in her sickness. Miss Brat ton is a distant relative of Dr. J. Ru fus Bratton, late of Yorkville. one of the foremost and most noted sur geons in the Confederate States army. We have seen the day when the mere mention of “Rufe” Bratton sent a thrill of hope through the sick room and inspired even the patients at •b ath’s door to take new courage in the battle for life.

The girdle is in nearly all the new costumes, although authorities in i«* that : asques are certainly returning to favor. Although separate shirtwaists are no longer considered as smart as a waist made of the same material as the skirt, still with the tailor suit any cloth waist would be entirely too warm for summer, so the shirt waist still remains in vogue. Lace and chiffon are now worked in together so closely as to give the appearance of one material and can be made into a delightfully cool an 1 at the same time very effective waist. On thin lawn and dainty waists, lace tucks and shirrings seem to run quite wild, each apparently vieing for supremacy, and there is little doubt that the shirt waist this sum mer is to be quite as elaborate as the waist of the handsomest afternoon gowns. * * « Miss Susie Brian, who has been visiting Mrs. J.

Their main source is the liver—and all the fine spirits ever made in the Blue Grass State could not remedy a bad liver or the hun- ired-and-one ill effects it produces. You can't have g*iod spirits and a bad liver at the same time. Your liver must be in fine condition if you would feel buoyant, happy and hopeful, bright of eye, light of step, vigorous and successful in your pursuits. You can put your liver in fine condition by using Green’s August Flower—the gr**at«*st of all medicines for the liver and stomach and a certain cure for dyspepsia or indigestion. It has been a favorite household remedy for over thirty-five years. August Flower will make your liver healthy and active and thus insure you a liberal supply of “good spirits.” Trial size, 2. r ic; reg ular bottles, 75c. At Oherok**** Drug Co., Gaffney; L. D.

Hyomei i not a pill nor is it a liq uid that has to be taken with a table spoon or wineglass.

It destroys all gxrm life in the air passages and lungs and enriches anil purifies the blood with additional ozone. It eur**s catarrh of the h**a*i and throat, or of the stomach, liver and kidneys. Wherever mucous mem- brane contains catarrhal germs, there Hyomei will do its work of healing. When using this treatment, the air you breathe will be found like that on the mountains high above the sea level, where grow balsamic tre**s an*! plants which make tlx- air pur** by giving off volatile fragrance that is healing to tlx* respiratory organs.
