Mayor’s Court.
Only one culprit faced his honor,
the mayor, yesterday morning wnen
he opened court. That lonesome one
was Will Edwa.-ds, a negro boy who
was charged with stealing money
from the cash drawer of Dempsey &
Ballenger. The exact amount stolen
could not be ascertained, as the theft
had apparently been going on from
time to time, uhtil he was .detected 'Gaffney visitor Wednesday
Wednesday afternoon. The mayor
imposed a fine of five dollars, which
was paid. *

To Wash White Articles. —Wet the pieces to be washed; rub the
soap.on|well-—especially over the soiled places; then roll up the pieces
and.; put them int a tub with just enough lukewarm or cold water
(not hot),to cover them. Use either lukewarm or cold water, according
to your own comfort.
Let the clothes soak about thirty minates. The dirt will then be so
loosened that it will comejout easily,on the wash-board or in the wash
ing machine. 4 Do not boil or scald the things. After washing them
rinse the clothes thoroughly—blue, ring and hang out. This method
purifies and whitens the wash.
'Flannels and OtherJWoolens —Wash them in lukewarm suds, rinse
thoroughly in lukewarm water, wring loosely, and hang up at once. ~As
these garments must not be boiled, ’Fels-NapTha is particularly~effec-
tive in washing them, preventing roughness and shrinking.
~ Scrubbing ahd'House Cleaning.—Fels-Napiua so ip washeTdishesT
cleans the kitchen, porcelain tubs, tile floors, oil cloths, brightens paintT
whitens floors, and does all like things throughout the house most quick
ly and easily with lukewarm or cold water.
To Remove Grease and other spots and stains from clothing, carpets,
or anything —Brush first and then apply to the places some of the soap
lather, leave it on a few minutes, and rinse off well with a rag or sponge.
The Hands and |5kln j;are ^iot_ irritated by Fees-Naptha, because
nothing JnjuTious is used id making this soap; t&ere is’ ncTdlpping first •
in hot and then in cold water; an even temperature is a great preserver.
Other Advantages.—Fkw-Naptha soap will do splendid work
quickly. The wash is completed without boiling or steaming, and very
little rubbing. Garments are not worn out, nor their fibre destroyed by
chemicals or by boiling. No fuel is needed. There arise no poisonous
suds-steam vapors to breathe. It does more work, does better work, and’
does it easier. Harms nothing, not even the most delicate fabric.

JOJNESVILLE JOTTINGS.
Interesting News Letter from a Pro
gressive Business Town.
Jonesville, Nov. 21.—Winter seems
to have comi: at last. Cool weather
makes us feel better and gives us
new vigor to meet the duties of life,
ami brings blessings in many ways.
We have reached the end of the
year’s harvests, which, in the main,
have been bountiful beyond expecta
tion, and beyond our deserts. Our
land Is revaling in peace and plenty
to a degree unknown before. •
Our whole people are called by our
president to nalt and give one day
(3ftth) to Thanksgiving to our God
for the love and mercies He has
shown us in the past, and* to Invoke
His blessings for the future days.
Will tfiey do It? What a spectacle it
would be for the angels to look down
and see this great nation bowed down
-before Jehovah, confessing to Him
who rules all things and rejoicing to

be His people.
Mrs. Lilly Sellers Smith has been
quite sick, but is getting better.
Dr. Chambers, who has been very
low with typhoid fever, we are glad
to say is concalescent.
Mr. Sam J. J. Littlejohn and Man
ager Bassett, of tne hosiery mdllB,
have just returned from Philadelphia
and New York.
Mr. J. J. Littlejohn’s family have
moved into his new residence.
The new hotel has been completed,
and is now in the care of the Misses
Crenshaw, who are prepared to care
well for their guests.
The Rev. Mr. Ezell will soon move
into the residence formerly occupied
bv J. J. Littlejohn, which/ be bought
some time ago.
I promised to give you the inscrip
tions on the tombstones of the Rev.
Elias (“Daddy)” Mitchel and his wife,
Milly, and here they follow:
Sacred to the memory
of
Milly Mitchell
wife of the Rev. Elias Mitchell who
died March 12th, 1839, In the 79th
year of her age.
She was a pious member of the
Baptist church from early life and
died in the hope of a glorious immor
tality.
A few more days, or years, at most
I My troubles will be o’er,
And I shall join the heavenly host
On Canaan’s peaceful shore.
My happy soul shall drink and feast
On love’s unheclou. jd sea;
The glorious hope of endless rest
Pleasing news to me.
Sacred
To the memory
of the Rev. Ellas Mitchell
A zealous minister of the Baptist
church •for 1 47 years, who departed
this life Nov. 30th, 1834, instantly
after singing and praying at a
stand in Chester district, for the
purpose of preaching a funeral sermon
in the 75th year of his age.
Give me one kind assuring word
To sink my fears again,
And cheerfully my soul shall wait
Here three score years and ten.
Many of- our farmers around Jones
ville are preparing to sow w'heat and
oats. If they can manage to find
seed there will be a good deal sown.
The merchants here are selling quite
a lot of guano for manuring the land
for the small grain.
There is a prospect that there will
be another cotton factory built at
this place before the moon gets much
older, to make heavy cloth goods.
Large trees from little acrons grow, you
know. There is also talk of building
an ice factory here in the near future.
Jonesville needs a good newspaper
to bring the nlace up in line of pro
gress with other towns. I feel sure
it* would be a good field for a wide
awake, enterprising editor. The
town is growing rapidly in popula
tion; the business men are wide
awake and enterprising. Wj need
some means by which we can let
others know what we are doing, and
ft appears to me that a good paper
would fill the bill.
The citizens of the town and vici
nity are called to meet in council
Thursday night, to advise as to open
ing a way that may put ns in closer
touch with Gaffney. May it prosper.
