WINE?'CARDUI i ' N A Rare Old Medal. Mr W W Bovd brought to this of-: i 6ce lasf week an interesting old medal that was ploughed up in his 1 field near Trio, It consists of a circular piece of metal with a head or etligy or. the obverse side and on the' reverse side this inscription, fairly] legible: ''The man who having saved i the parent pleaded with success for her children". On the obverse side i1 .1 1 1 il T i!.. I above tne neau are me juauu name j "Gulielinus" (William) and some ' other letters that could not be deciphered. There is no date, but the 1 style of head dress of the effigy sug- ' gests the 18th century. We are indebted to T M Gilland, Esq., for the plausible explanation that the medal was struck in commemoration of William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, whose distinguished services saved the mother country, (Englaud) and who pleaded with success for her ch>ldren(the colonies).

One of the most unpleasant j features of sickness is unpleasant j medicine. But as the world grows wiser medicine tastes better. Among the leaders in this advance is Scott's Emulsion. If is codIt ver oil in fullest strength with least taste. (/heerupathy is the best school of medicine. A happy memory is the best staff for old age. , A SURE THING. It Is said that nothing Is sure except death and taxes, hut that is not altogether true. l>r King's New Discovery for Consumption is a sure cure for all lung and throat troubles. Thousands eau testify to that. Mrs. C. B. Van Metre of Shephenltown, W. Va., says "1 had a severe ease or Broncmtls and for a year got no relief. One bottle of I)r King's New Discovery then cured me absolutely." It's infallible for Croup. Vl'h-*?plng Cough, Grip, Pneumonia and Consumption. Try it. It's guaranteed by D C Scott, Druggist.

The United States claimed that the act of hoisting a Confederate flag was open rebellion, and made haste to subdue it. Around the "Stars aud Bars" rained slue and ahell wherever it appeared, and in the smoke of battle it was often mistaken for the United States flag. So Gen Beauregard designed a battle flag, a plain red flag with two stripes of bine studded in white stars running criss-cro# throngh its center. The strong defense of Southern rights promised fair to win the argued question of Secession, and on May 1st, 1863, the Confederate Cougress held at Richmond, Va., adopted a National flag of the Confederacy. which was simply the battle flag placed upon a pure white sq uare. "When it fell limp around the staff it looked like a flag of truce at a distance and not wishing "to show the white feather," a band of red " ??a oonvi/1 An o/]rrn ma L* i n ry (ho n 113 OC11 VU VII CUV VUpV, vuv white strips smaller. This fourth flag was short-lived^ being used only about a month before the surrender at Appomattox Court house, Ya., still it remains the National flag of the Confederate States. The South suffered untold agon-; but the healer. Time, in binding up the deep wounds and rents caused by the great civil jar has drawn cords of patriotic love closer about the Federal and Southern hearts. They in one grand chorus proclaim, "United we stand; divided we fall". Fansie Caxsox. Scranton, S. C.

Over-Work Weakens Your Kidneys. Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. All the blood In your body passe* through your kidneys once every three minutes. rw? ^ The kidneys are your n b'00^ purifiers, they fliter out the waste or r tmPur'tles ln the blood. . If they aresick or out l| of order, they fall to do Xj' 1 'heir work. i Pains, aches and rheu/ I ii \ Ua U matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the . . ?<3 blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidneypoisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their beginning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its j wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on its merits f^LTr by all druggists in fiftycent and one-dollar sizes.

This is no reflection upon them, it may be that they are perfectly good for their debts and intend to pay them, but the Record cannot afford to con ' tinue the paper to those who are in arrears and who have paid nothing lately and have said nothing about paying. . Subscriptions are payable in advance. Some of the names to be dropped are of persons . who subscribed within the past six months, but who have forgotten to pay. Of course The Record will be glad to have these subscribers, all of them, to pay up and to ! continue the paper to them. It will be continued even to those who give us reason to believe that they intend to pay next fall. Those who get the paper, pay nothing and say nothing, need not be offended when the paper stops.
