What a Political Speaker todores
From "The Fir inn Liar (fa X>tiotial
Campaign," by John I! Winhelt,
in the Xomnber M ktroi'o>ita\
Magazine.
The political stump speaker has
nauy amusing and many unpleasant
'xperiences. A party of us went
town into the heart of the East Side
)f New York one night with a poitician,
somewhat handicapped l?y
ais wealth and social position, .ho,
levertheless elected to go to the
ioubtful district personally. At a
street corner a bunting-draped cart
waited hiui, and climbing to the
ailboard of this, he began telling
Lite ragged audience, lti well-rounded
periods, how they should v,?tea'~l
why. A few jeers beg mi to ?...
From the tolerauce of the cro\d; ibr
jeers gained volume. He was ifijk
to "Aw, shet up," "Closeyer
'Say, give us a drink, you? talk
makes us thirsty." Somewhat disconcerted,
but still determined to
finish his speech, he was continuing
when something hurtled past his
U?..a .....I S,.l...<liu,l nun til' nil flln
UCitU iiuu ej'iuciuru pvmn uu ...v
door of the cart. Another something
and another followed, and
everyone was dodging decadent tomatoes
until, it becoming impossible
to heaj a shout above the jeers and
laughter of the voters, the horses
were started forward out of the soft,
red bombardment, and the district
left to its own political si us.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is tne
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal conditiou,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of tne mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness ('auscd
by catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars, free.

A1 MAIL TAIK
For the First Time South Carolina
Gets Stake Races-Big
Entries.
Columbia, S. C.?(Special.)?In all ths
life of the State Fair?forty year??
there have never been anything like
the races that are scheduled for this
year. The fair opens October 26th and
closes October 30th. There will be four
Jays of racing. Already live stake
races have been arranged for trotters
tnd pacers. Purses will be ofTered for
both harness and running horses.
Between J6.000.00 and J7,000.00 has
been offered as prizes for these races.
The attractive prizes, together with the
fact that so many of the Northern and
K&stern tracks have had trouble with
the racers, will make the entries hers
fair week the best aggregation of fast
horses ever seen anywhere In the
South,
airings 01 nurses iruru me iiiusi ronowned
stables In the country will be
here fair week. With the races nearly
two months off. the entries for the
stake races counted up to ninety-three,
and It Is expected that more than a
hundred of America's finest racers will
be entered for the stake rices.
The purse races will be much above
the average this year. More money Is
offered and better horses will be raced.
The track has been put in apple pie
order aod the grandstands enlarged
and reworked. This was necessary to
accommodate the Immense crowds that
will witness all of the races during fair
week, this being the-first of the series
in the Virginia-Carolina Circuit.
There will be other sports. Davidson
College plays Clemson on Wednesday,
and the University of South Carolina
plays Davidson College on Thursday.
Mr. R. C. Keenan will have the races
In charge, and he knows his business.
President. Mobley expects the races
this year to bring people to the ialr
from every part of the Btate and from
many surrounding States.

complications and additional cost may
be avoided. OH

When my wayward boy came back
From his reckless roaming.
With his plumage ruth and wrack,
Like a spent bird homing.
First I looked, and then I smiled,
Then we clung together;
He was still iny child, my child,
Love was still a tether.
Ne'er a word, reproach I said,
Asked not what had kept him;
Duly when he lay in bed
Then (in mine) I wept him.
Wept the wounds upon him w rought
Those long years' bequeathing,
Thrice that night his threshold
sought,
Watchful of his breathing.
Listening, 'twist times afraid
Let he be some other?
Thanking God, whose mercy made
Me to be his mother.
