Th.e general opinion appears to be tla' they wilt, and some fears ate entet t.ijied on account of this belief. One old farmnter arguing o: the subj-et says, that the lower a ton goe, the tmore he must plant to raise the amount neces>ary to tn t demands at higher pr:c"s. This is a certain kind of argu mvnt, and if his individual incrcased quota did not tend to lower prices it would be a mete potent argument. We do not ti:ntk any man or commu nity of men can eette the question, but if our farmners in Fairfield would make their own corn and raise their own meat, or in othee words make the farm self-u,taining, then coit al would be an nut side con-iderationl. You can not l.ur" :t u. n much who has plenty of c rnt and bacon; and we can have it if we will. Stick to corn and hogs in 1896 and we predict good time.; in Fairfield SAB INDEED.

Cured by Dr. Miles' Nervine. A few years ago. Mr. L. W. Gallaher, was an extensive, successful expert manu-i facturer of l umber products. Attacked with epilepsy, he was obliged to give up his busi ness. The attacks came upon him most In opportunely. One time falling from a carri age, at another down stairs, and often in the Istret. Once he fell down a shaft In the mill, his Injuries nearly proving fatal. Mr. Gallaher writes from Milwaukee. Feb. 16.,'95. "There are none more miserable than epi leptics. For 20 years I suffered with epilep tic fits, having as high as five in one night. I Itried any number of physicians, paying to one alone, adfee of 8500.00 and have done little for years but search for something to Ihelp md, and have taken 'all the leading Iremedies, but received no benefit. A year ago my son, Chas. S. Gallaher, druggist at 191 Reed St.. Milwaukee, gave me Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine, and I tid it with gratifying results. Have had but two fits since I began taking it. I am better now in every way than I have been in 20 years." Dr. M iles' Remedies are sold by druggists on a positive guarantee that the first bottle Iwill benefit or price refunded.

The Winnsbor NEWS .ND hERALD, having seen the "rock man" in Co lumbia, says it is a question whether bodies will petrify in our soil. Our contemporary may be assured that petrification will take place in our soil. During the past spring the City Council of Rock Hill in order to widen a street required the sexton to disinte. about one hundred bodies buried in the pauper portion of our cemetary and i einter them elsewhere in the graveyard. In doing so he took up two bodies-one that of a woman and the other that of a child-that were petrified. Both bodies were as white as chalk and as hand and as heavy as stone. The coffin in which the woman's body had been buried had decayed and in transferring it to another an arm was ac,identally broken and the break had all the appear:.nces of stone.--Rock Hill hlerald. It is no use to try to have something that our enterprising sister town Rock Hill has not got. We know she has flawing wells, colleges, factories and enterprises without limit, and now she comes to the front with petrified bodies. The "rock man" found n;ear Columbia was not "As white as chalk," but on the contrary was very, very darl-. Now tell us, brother Hull, was it the b.>dy of a white man or negro? Mis: Flora A. Jones, South Bend, Ind. Purchased a bottle of your "Blushes" of Arend, C'or. of Fifth Ave. and Madi.n S . I find it delightful. Will gladli', rtc.t .uiend it to others.. Yours r e>ectfully, Fred M. Roberts, With Marchall Field & Co., Chicago, Ills. Mr. Roberts is not the only one who iads "Blush of Roses" delightful, as many ladies and gentlemen c in testify, who have purchased it from John H. McMaster & Co. * OLD FORTUNE. )rAgin of the Name "Fortune's Spring Woods." Dr. Morris Moore, of Spartanburg, nauy years ago wrote for the Yorkville gnquirer the following incident of afaette's visit to Columbia in 1824. 1 guard had been placed before the loor of Lafayette's quarters with in truc:ions to let no one enter without ermisfion. An old African, neatly ressed, came to the door and started n, but the sentinals interposed their tayonets to bar his entrance. The old nan contemptuously pushed them .side saying, "Pshaw, see guns 'fore 'ou was born; been where they been hut by soldiers too," and without urther opposition g+ined his way. Ie wvent s;raight to the room where he distinguished guest was stan:ding n acrowdl a.d cried out, "I camie to e General L'ifayet te." Lafayette urned, looked at hiin and r'emnarked, 'An old acq'iointance; don't tAlt me vho he is." The negro advanced and owing held out hiG hand and said, Howdy, Mass Lafayette, how you 1>, sir. You 'membe.t mer" "Yes, top, don't tell me your name. Ab I ave it. For'tune belonging to Captain luchanan. The first servant who aited on me when I came to America. Vhen I landed at Georgetown I was aken first to the camp of Ca'. tain uchanan nea.' there and Fortune rai ted on toe," said he as he shook armly the old mian's hand. The obleman called for a glass of chain aign with Fortune which that worthy ook with grest dignity. Then be xtended his hand and said, "Good ye, Mass. Lafayette; we are getting 'Id; we'll never meet again, G>)d b!ess 'on." They shook hands cgain. ortne went out, motunted his pony .d started ifor his home at Winnsboro, a)ing he had come to see General ~afayette, now he'd done that he was ~oing home. When quite a small boy I remember I'd Fortune. IIs was taken care of vy General John Buchanan, nephew o Captain Buchanan, and had L.oth ng to do except work a little for him elf. He had a rice patch on the land to owned by the town, and hence he name Fortune's Spring. For many ears this has been the favorite place 'or military barbecues and picnics. G. H. M.
