(Farmers Raise Fine Porkers-Death
of a Child-Horse and Buggy
Stolen.
j Lake City, January 14: E L
L Hirsch, Esq., was noted here
^ from Kingstree Friday.
f Mr R F Cox came up from
Johnsonville Thursday and
spent the day in town.
Mr J M Matthews killed a pig
last week that weighed 444
pounds net and yielded 110 lbs
of lard. It was two years old.
Just figure a little and see what 1
Hi this pig is worth, and then say '
? that it does not pay to raise
pork, if you can do so without
W insulting your common sense. ]
Hon W L Bass went to Colum- 1
\ bia Monday to attend the ses- 1
sion of the general assembly
^ 9 which meets Tuesday.
There are several girls at Dr
J B DuRant's, but there was no
boy there until one day last ;
week when a little fellow came
to brighten his home.
i
Mr J A Coward, whose home
is near Anderson's bridge, killed
a little pig last week that
balanced the scales at 460
SgL pounds and he blessed us with '
^ the backbone. My, but it was
I fine. Which, the pig- or the 1
backbone? Both, of course.
Any one would call a two and a <
^" halt year old pig weighing ,
that amount fine, and we doubt
that any one would hesitate to
say that backbone "purlieu" is
fine.
Little Robert Furman Askins,
the six months old child of Mr and 1
Mrs H G Askins died on the 9th
i
instant. Many days and weeks
the little fellow suffered until
the angel that sweeps away ?
every care came and bore him s
away where pain never comes.
The following day the mortal
remains were laid in its little i
bed in the cemetery. Mr and
Mrs Askins are indeed very
grateful to all friends, especial- j
ly the ladies who were helpful j
in so many ways during the
lingering illness of their child. ^
On last Thursday night some ,
one stole Mr F Marion Britton's {
horse trom Mr Britton's home (
raearRome.Fridaj the horse was
found near Beulah in possession ,
ot uaniei uavis, a negro. L?avis ,
was arrested. He finfshed a <
term in the penitentiary last |
Lm ?ctober,was recently sent to ttfe j
Mfcfr^k>rgetown gang to serve an- j
Y ^Kther sentence, got out Wednes- ]
N day and Thursday Mr Britton's j
horse went off with him. He \
evidently is of the kind that do \
not let grass grow under their ] (
feet. >V. L. B. I,

I Remedy for Neuralgia or Pain In /
the Nerves. t
For neuralgia and sciatica Sloan's (
Liuiraent has no equal. It has a I
powerful sedative effect on the nerves (
penetrates without rubbing and t
*ives immediate relief from pain f
quickens the circulation of the blood i
and gives a pleasant sensation of r
jomfort and warmth. j
'For three years I suffered with '
neuralgia in the head and jaws,'' j
writes J P Hubbard, of Marietta, S f
0, "and had almost decided to have I
three of my teeth pulled, when a f
friend recommended me to buy a |
twenty-five-cent bottle of Sloan's r
Liniment. I did so and experienced i
mmediate relief, and I kept on us- f
ng it until the neuralgia was en- j
'.irely cured. I will never be with- f
>ut a bottle of Sloan's Liniment in j
ny house again. I use it also for f
insect bites and sore throat, and 1 j
;an cheerfully recommend it to any /
)ne who suffers from any of the ills j
fthich I have mentioned." (

If a cough once gets into your j*
system it acts on every muscle and ^
fibre of the body and makes you 1 ^
ache all over. It especially affects vi
the intestines and makes you con- C
stipated, so in order to get rid of a j
cold thoroughly and without delay |
you should not take anything that it*
will tend to constipate. Kennedy's'
Laxative Cough Syrup acts upon I.
the bowels and thereby drives the 0*j
cold out of the system. It contains Jc
no opiates it is pleasant to take(oi
aud is highly recommended for J*
children. Sold bv W L Wallace, 01
