We are under obligations to Mr. W. H. Wallace for a copy in pamphlet form of his superb address, delivered at Clinton on the Elements of Success. We would like to see a copy of it in the hands of every young man and woman in the country. It would well pay their persual. Mr. Cleveland's letter to the G. A. R., published elsewhere is a manly one, and will receive the approval of the whole American people. He grows stronger with the people every day and he need not be afraid to be tried by such a jury. Read it and you will surely think more of the chief magistrate of your country and feel that he. is worthy the high of ice he fills.

Desportes, Charles -Ellis. Jr., C. J. Iredell, G. Leaphart, T. T. Moore. Geo. S. Mower, J. A. * Sligh and W. B. Lowrance. By vote the directors were author ized to raise money to build and equip the road by issu.ing bonds se cured by a mortgage of the road for1 $12,000 a mile. The Safe Deposit < and Trust Company of Baltimore, as I trustee, will be given a trust deed of the road, and the bonds thus secured: * placed with that company.

The issue of the first 100,000,000 iarks of the new imperial loan in termnany has been subscribed for seven mecs over. The bulk of those desir ig to invest in the loan are private upitalists. The applications of Berlin arties alone amount to 400,0003,000. lie North German Gazette (Prince ismnarck's organ) is overjoyed at such brilliant result, which is regarded as markable in view of the low in terest [fered.

Judge Boozer's practice is increasing. Close attention to any vocation in life will insure success. Mrs. W. R. Capers, of Columbia, is spending some time in our town, the guest of Mr. and Mrs. F. V. Capers. Mrs. Pink Bradburn, who has been sick very near unto death, we are glad to say is improving, and her speedy re ewery is expected. 3Ir. Marion Miller, who ha; been an invalid for a long time, is now stopping here a while to try the medical qualities of our mineral well. The St'ndav School room attached to Grace Church has been completed, and will be dedicated to the service of God on the fourth Sunday in July. inst. 31essrs. W. P. IIair and Foster Slaw son, of Silver Street, have spent several very enjoyable days among their old friends and relatives in and around town. Monroe J. Epting, a Theological stu dent of Newberry Seminary, preached an able sermon in Grace Church on last Sunday. 3r. Epting will fill Rev. Mr. Marks' pulpit during Mr. M.'s absence. We would respectfully submit to the town authorities and board of health that if various ditches and sundry places of unpleasantness and uncleanness were investigated there might be less fever in our town. Prof. Scheetz is confined to his room with rheumatism. We had hardly thought there was enough of the Pro fessor's f1tsh to get up much of a pain. but we were mistaken. We hope to see him out soon. Mt. Tabor high school, Mr. Pilgrim, Excelsior, Locust Grove and St. Luke's schools have all opened again. Hot weather, children, be carefu!, your cloth ing is not thick enough now to offer much resistance to external applications. The gentle showers for the past week have been 'somewhat partial. Some sec tions have had an abundance, while others are needing rain, though no see tion is materially suffering, and tl e farmers are all still jubilant over the crop prospects. G. B. Cromer, E=q, of Newberry, will address the Y. M. C. A. in Grace Church on next Sunday night. The public is invited to attend. Something real good may be expected from the speaker, and we feel safe in saying that such expectations m ill not be disaf p:>inted. At a meeting of the citizens of No. 9 township on last Saturday, G. L. Sease, I)r. C. T. Wyche, R. T. C. Hunter, J. P. Bowers and A. N. Boland were elected to represent the stock of number 9, in Columbia on Tuesday night to elect a board of directors for the C. N. & L. Railroad. On Tuesday night some party or par ties forced the lock to Mr. W. P. Koon's meat house and stole a large side of bacon, a ham and a quantity of Ilour. Mr. Koon thinks he is on track of the party and has taken out a warrant to day. This is one of a series of robberies that has been perpetrated in the Pc maria section. We hope Mr. Koon will succeed in arresting the guilty party cr parties and bring them to justice. Another "Dr." has been added to the list in our town. This time it is "Dr." A. H. Kohn. He has purchased the en tire stock of drugs and chemicals of S. L. Fellers. The business will be carried on at the old stand under the efficient management of J. A. Simpson, druggist and p)harmacist. Mr. K. is an "aggres sive'' merchant. He will not abandon his other bu?iniess in any manner, he simply enlarges his business by purchas ing another entirely different stock of goods. Success to you, young man. The long and much talked of depot is now completed, and we are proudl of it. It is not only the most substantial, but the finest stiucture of the kind on the Columbia and Greenville division. It is a beauty and an ornament to our town. The building is S2 feet in length by 30 feet in width, with a roof projection of . feet at each end and 41 feet on the sides.

Seven dilTerent doc tors attempted in vain to heal it. One gave me a small vial for five dullars, which was a 'certain cure." It is need less to say that it did ne nogood. About of two years ago I became quite uneasy, as people thought I had a cancer, andI took a course of eighteen bottles of S. S. S. The result has been a complete cure. at The ulcer or cancer healed beautifully, leaving scarcely a perceptible scar. 0 From that day I have been in excellnt health, the Specific having purified my blood thoroughly, increased my appe- orc tite and perfected my digestion. In a word, I feel like a new woman, and, best of all, the eight year ulcer = gone y entirely. Mxs. W. P. CANNON. - Trenton, Todd Co., Ky., Feb. 25,1887. Two Bottles Efect a Cure. Gentlemen--My blood was in such a condition that on the,slightest abrasion my flesh would fester, and sores were difficult to heal. I took two bottles of 1. S. S., and after that any abrasion would heal on first intention, and my flesh was firm. W. T. WILKINS. no Jesup, Ga., March 3, 1887. bu Treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases mailed free.
