Sonie Predictions. AS TO RESULT OF THE CONTEST FOE MINOR STATE OFFICES. They Haye Been Overlooked in the Gent ral Interest Taken In Gubernatorial and Senaterial Races What "They" eay (Columbia, Record, 15th.) There are only three offices on the State ticket for which there will bE no second race, unless, of course some of the candidates tie-a highl3 improbable circumstance. These are the offices of attorney general superintendent of education anc State treasurer. There are two can didates for each of these offices ex cept for the latter, in which cas there is only one. Those people who have kept ul with the campaign declare that thi canvass in the Pee Dee section, in si far as the attorney general is con cerned, has not affected the sitna tion at all, and the reports are tha Gunter will get a majority of th votes in that section, which has here tofore been considered Stevenson' stronghold. He will stand a goo chance in Marlboro and will likel; carry Florence, Marion, Horry, Sum ter, Lee and Williamsburg, and wil get a good vote in Chesterfield. Gun ter's vote in the other sections of th State will far exceed that of Steven son. Mr. McMahan, by reason of attend ing summer schools, failed to get t a number of campaign meetings, an many believe that Mr. Martin wa having things his own way. Mc Mahan has been prosecuting a mo vigorous campaign since he has bee out and his chances for re-electio are greatly improved. The race for adjutant general ha practically narrowed down to thre candidates-Frost, Patrick and Boyi Rouse and Paul Ayer have not pai ticipated in the campaign to any es tent, the latter having attended nc a single meeting with the exceptio of Anderson, his home county. Th chances of CQl. Frost seem gooc though it is hardly expected that h will get through on the first ballol The race for secretary of State li in considerable doubt and not muec -.,+;n~ kin,h Anna BR to thba final race will be between Wilso and Gantt.. The mix-up as to the omptrolle general's office is such that politi cians are stumped when it comes t picking out the winner; and the sanm may be said as to the railroad con missionership. As to the latter, tb general belief is that either Moble or Caughman will be in the secon race with Wilborn. To Vote In Primary. There is considerable talk goini the rounds these days as to whoi entitled to vote ini the primaries, an< in order to set the. matter straigh we give below the qualifications c the voter as prescribed by the law c the party: Rule 1.

He says regarding Dr. Miles' Heart Cure: "I suffered agonizing pain in the left breast and between my shoulders from heart trouble. My heart would palpi tate, flutter, then skip beats, until I could no longer lie in bed. Night after night I walked the floor, for to lied down would have meant sudden death. My condition seemed almost hopeless when I began taking Dr. Miles' fleart Cure, but it helped mec from the first, Later I took Dr. Miles' Nervine with the Heart Cure and the :ffect was aston ishing.

Our hearts are saddened now, But a Father's hand hath dealt the blow 'And we in silence bow. He was a watchman true IOn Zion's sacred walls, But his work was done and the Lord His spirit heavenward calls. And from the stricken city, From his doctrine of love, From weary watchings by beds of pain, He goes to his home above. Where no fever's noisome breath Pollutes the fragrant air, Where he may rest and no duty calls To weariness and care. Doubtless the Father saw His child had need of rest, So he took him from the scenes of woe And laid him upon his breast. And we are left to weep; How can we stay the tear! We thought we needed him most on earth, He was to his patients so dear. But the Lord the end doth see, And He doeth all things well, We bow to his will, though to dearest hopes It be a funeral knell. Embalmed in a thousand hearts, Our brother still will live; May the God of love to the widow's heart, His plenteous comfort give. And a tender Father be, To his babe thus bereaved, And pour the oil of healing in To the hearts so sorely grieved. ***a . . uut 1 92 ColnAo 2 (' A no-not 11 1969 COWARDIN'~ FAMOUS QUATRAIN. The * Fool Song" That Fascinated Every One. [Norfolk Landmark.] Some of our contemporaries, in the course of a contest in the discovery of poetic gems, have put forward the claims of the following startling stanzas, sacred to the memory of the late Col. Charles O'B. Cowardin, of the Richmond Dispatch. "She's the only girl I love Got a face like a horse and buggy I met her leaning on the lake Oh, fireman, save me che-ild!" This is striking enough in itself, but the chief strength of those strenuous lines lies in their history and application. Turning back to the editorial columns of The Land mark for Dec. 211894, we read, under the head of "A Remarkable Perform ance," the following discussion of the classic just reproduced: "We find among the many interest ing things which abound in the Atlanta Constitution an editorial which makes immortal a distingu ished Virginia journalist. Referring to the extraordinary qualities and abilities of Col. Cowardin, of the Richmond Dispatch, Editor Clark Howell makes the following revelation in detail of a performance which ie unique in the history of poetical and lyrical composition: "'* ** It is not only in prose that the richmond journalist displays biE unique and sometimes bizarre origi nality. A few weeks ago, when hE was attending the Southern PresE convention, he astonished his com panions by occasionally reciting the following touching lines to music and to such music as only Cowardir can sing: (Here follows the famous quat rain.) "'Now, there is nothing tam< about that song, and it is altogethei different from the ordinary run o jingling rhymes. It would be impos sible to condense more sentiment ani facts in four short lines. Critics of th cold and cynical Boston school wil doubtless says that a girl with a faei like a horse and buggy would be dime museum freak, and it is quitd likely that they suggest the impos sibility of leaning on a lake, but the; will be struck dumb by the tender ap peal to the fireman to save the chil< .whieb so haDily concludes the "'Editor Cowardin believes tha the merit of either prose or versi should be measured by results, ani tested by this standard his experimen was certainly a remarkable success Before he had repeated it many time every member of the editorial coven tion was humming it. The song ha< a peculiar fascination for them, an< when they adjourned they went thei several separate ways singing abon the mysterious young lady, with th pitaresque face, who was leaning oi Lake Michigan, or some other inland body of water, entirely regardless o the fireman and the baby. "Editor Cowardin is a pioneer ii the new art of brevity.' "It is related that Major J. C Hemphill of the Charleston, S. C. News and Courier, when he awokd one morning last month in Birming ham at the Southern Associated Press meeting, approached a group of friends and, rubbing his eyes, witla a faca pale and haggard, said: 'Did you fellows hear that fool song oi Cowardin's ?' 'Yes,' they all answered; 'and it was a fool song.' "Well,' said Hemphill, who is a solemn man that believes in the 'old south' and takes no stock in Senator Walsh's new south', 'don't you know that crazy thing has been running in my head WOMAN HER CARE AND HAPPINESS. Never did women accept the truth of Mother's Friend more willingly than those thuands who have tried it. The prime object in a medicine for expectant mothers is safeness and virtue, qualifications impos sible to find in internal doses made of nasty, njurious and stimulating drugs. MOTHER'S FRIEND s a liniment rubbed in with the hands something to lubricate the internal tissues and muscles. Something gentle, comforting and refreshing ; a balm for the nerves, a softener for the cords holding the heavy burden, an invigorator for the muscles, making them elastic, thereby permitting wit eae beypansion as the fetus grows to Mother's Friend is the only liniment that will make the usually dreaded issue easy, ~nd leave the zhild healthy, and the mother rith all her grace and symmetry unmarred. )f druggists, $1.00.

"She's the only girl I love Got a face like a horse and buggy-' "They all, with one accord confessed to the same fascination and said they couldn't get rid of their'n. "We hear from Washington that Senator Walsh in similarly beset by Cowardin's 'fool song' and that he hums it in season and out. He says he believes that he has been 'fixed' and that this time it was Cowardin and not Col. Evan Howell who fixed him. "Cowardin is not merely a pioneer in "thart of brevity, but a genius in the new style of poetry and song." It was a great experience to hear Col. Cowardin sing the "fool song" that is now being recalled. He was, indeed, a genius; and has brilliant jollity is sadly missed at the editorial convention which are held now. There will not be another like him. One of the best things about the "fool song" was the introduction to it. Before singing it, Col. Cowardin would relate that he first heard it on a train in West Virginia, and from the lips of a very bibulous, rumina tive gentleman who sat apart in the smoking car, "tickler" in hand. The solitary passenger, who seemed to be laboring under the influence of some great grief, would indulge in inter vals of profound and melancholy re flection, applying the while such comfort as the liquid mixture afford ed and would periodically burst forth into this rhapsoda: "She's the only girl I love Got a face like a horse and buggy I met her leaning on the lake Oh, fireman, save me che-ild!" The final lines was rendered with veritably-volcanic emotion. This poetic masterpiece is not com plete without the story and mnsic which go with it. r GOLDEN AGE V 1PURE OLD LINCOLN CO.
