The landmarks of Clinton are be ing rapidly removed by tho icono clasts of improvement in tho place. The hist historic building to be torn down was the old Rose house, Which has .so long stood on the cor ner of Main and Railoy streets. It has been moved to a more re tired location and no longer fills a large space in (he public eye. On the old site M. 8. Railey & Sous proposo to erect a block of store rooms for general purposes of mer chandise. They are contemplating tho erection of another business block on tho diagonally opposite corner to tho rear of this site, which will qulU thoroughly fill up (hat portion of the business part of Clin ton with store rooms. Tho series of lectures announced in this column some time since to take place iti connection with other exercises of the College, was begun only last week. The lecture announced for Prof. Jacobs was post poncd till next month, while the ftrst of tho series was delivered by Prof. Clolnnd on tho English Language with special reference to the didactic feature. Members of tho Columbia Theological .Semi nary hive signified their willing ness to assist in the course, aud a good thing is expected during tho winter for the students of tho Col lege and for the people of Clinton. The public generally are invited to attend. Miss Marie McCuslan spent Sat urday and Sunday in Laurens.

Catalogues, write Rochester tamp Co., New York, Fruit Culture, Okangk Co., N. Y. Oct. tat, 1891. E dito it Advehtisku: I hardly think it needful to apol ogize for sending you this brief let ter regarding fruits, since it is ac companied with mellow pears, peaches and apples; some of which, I hope, may reach your palate. Now interest has been awakened hero with us by tho exhibits at our Agricultural Fair just held in Ornngo County. We were ourselves surprised at the showing of so many kinds of fino varieties of apples, peaches, plums, pears, grapes, etc. Nothing I can say through your sheet would avail to induce owners of plots and farms to plant trees and vines so much as to seo some of the samples sent from this re gion where only a few years ago it was as harren of Iruit as is yours at present. Tho amount of the healthful food given to the homo and to tho market is surprising. Attention to the trees and vines after being once planted Is required once or twice each year. This is absolutely necessary to tho giving of fine crops. To mention something regarding some of the food products shown in our fair will interest readers, per haps, and givo them an idea of what, by fairly good culture, cati be produced up here in our colder climate. The variety of vegetable products shown was much larger than I hud conceived as possiblo anywhere except in the tropical regions. A prize was offered for tho greatest variety from one farm. From a comparatively small one there was spread out on a long table one hundred different sorts. Anothor showed eighty. Among the growths were squashes weighing 110 lbs, cabbage heads 2-llbs, enor mous potatoes of quality very line, turnips, beets, egg-plant8, and spec imens of all the cereals with fruit from tree, shrub and vine. The thought that anyone should lack food in a country where so plentifully and cheaply it can be provided, seems absurd. More and more interest appears to be taken by the people, particu larly by tho farmers, each year in these agricultural exhibits. There were 27,000 people in attendance hist week and $4,000 dollars paid in prizes. Remember too this was only a county fair. How grc.tly they help to educate the people on prac tical lines of industrial work in art and general farming is plainly shown in the growing interest and improvements shown, each year. These statements and sugges tions to the people of your parts might appear impertinent and un gracious were I not certain that you can do its well und in tho pro duction of most of tho kinds of fruit even better. While we have a line showing of stock, both of horses and cattle, and the finest trotting horses of the world originated in this (Orange) county, racing at the fairs has been discontinued. They are attended by men, women and children, and there it as good order on the grounds generally as at most pub lic gatherings,?even better, for our rural population up here repre sent our most moral and sober citi zens. P. W. Poisoned by scrofula is tho sad story of many lives made misera ble through no fault of their own. Scrofula is more especially than any other a hereditary disease, and for this simple reason: Arising from impure and insufficient blood, the disease locates itself in the lym phatic.:, which are composed of white tissues; there Is a period of foetal life when tho whole body consists of white tissues, and thore fote the unborn child is especially susceptible to this dreadful disease. But there is a remedy for scrofula whether hereditary or acquired. It is Hood's Sarsaparille, which by its powerful effect on the blood, ex pels nil trace of the disease and gives to the vital fluid the quality and color of health. If you decide to take Hood's Sarsaparilla do not accept any substitute. When you need a good safo lax ative, ask your druggist for a box of Ayer's Pills, and you will find that they give perfect satisfaction. For indigestion, torpid liver, and sick headache, there is nothing su perior. Heading physicians recom mend (hem. In advanced age the declining powers are wonderfully refreshed by Hood's Sarsaparilla. It really doos "make the weak strong." For some time past I've been a rheumatic. I recently tried Salva tion Oil which gave me almost in stant relief. 1 sincerely recom? mend it as it has entirely cured me. Jambs Gordon, Balto, Md. The best reform in domestic life is without doubt tho introduction of Dr. Hull's Baby Syrup. Now no more laudanum need be given to babies. Hall's Hair H?nower is free from alcohol and all dyes that in jure tho skin. It is scientifically prepared, and will restoro gray hair to its original color and vigor. Professor Oautbier, of Paris, slates that certain vital processes of the body develop putrefying sub tnnces in the tissues, which, If not speedily eliminated, produce dis ease. Ayer's Sarsaparilla effects the removal of those substances, and t her by preserves health. Croup frequently finds a house hold unprepared for his visit, while the rapidity with which it develops calls for instant treatment. For this dangerous disease Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is an admirable remedy. It saves many lives every year. Keep it in the house. A doctor's bill is seldom less than live dollars, and this doesn't in clude the cost Of filling prescrip tions. Ono dollar purchases a hot tlo of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which, in nine cases out of ten, is all the medical treatment needed. Try it and save your money for a rainy day. Improve tho nutritive functions of the sculp by using Hall's Vege table Slcllllail Hair H?nower, and thus keep the hair from falling and becoming gray. When Baby was sick, wo gft.ro her Castorla.

Billy jbnkins. Many young children become positively repulsive witli sore eyes sore ears and scald head. Such af flictions may lie speedily removed by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Young and old alike experience the wonderful benefits of this med icine. Queen Victoria lias a remarkably fine hoad of hair, for a lady of her age; but her son, the Prince of Wales, is quite bald. Had he used Ayer's Hair Vigor earlier in life, his head might, to-day, have been as well covered as that of his royal mother* Its not too late yet, As you like it.

The waters of tho Lithia Spring are odorless and colorless, freo from saWnary taste, rather palatable. When taken in a considerable quantity they do not nauseate, purge or product) any feeling of discomfort. I lind from* nn|analysis of the waters they contain clorhlc sodium, carbonated potash, carbonuje soda, carbennto* lithia, carbonate iron and sulphnto,, magnesia. The waters act directly ? upon the mucous eoutes of tho^ stomach ami alimentary canals they uro po\vcrl ully aHeralivo and tonic. They are soothing to inflamed or irritated surfaces* They react upon the blood, chang. lllgm it from acid to alkaline. In indigestion, catarrh of stom ach and gastralgia, suppplementcd with a proper diet they are a cer tain cure. Tho action upon tho kidneys is marked. The sodium, potash, soda anil lithia are the best ? solvents ol uric acid, all calculi of an add character, whether biloary or clptic aro steadily dissolved, I am confident that the profession I will lind it very useful in casts,, where thh' class of water is re quired.
