A Final Word.
In order to give every subscriber
in arrears the oppoitunity to
pay his account we are going over
our list and mailing a state*
meat to all that we find indebted
to us anything at all. If you
owe the account pleas? pay it, as
we need the money. If there is
an error in the account let us
* *> 1 - -1 J
know ana we win a? giau w
correct it. Should anyone desire
his paper discontinued advise us
and we will cheerfully take his
name off our list -only please pay
to date.
It involves quite a great deaj
of labor and considerable expense
to seud out so many of these
statements and we hope the parties
to whom they are sent will
give them prompt attention. To the
individual it means but a small
sum?only a dollar or so?while
to us the aggregate amounts to
hundreds of dollars. We have
tried to serve you faithfully: now,
will you do your part?

Anion*; our most valued ex-!
changes are numbered two weekly i
newspapers edited by members ofi
the fair sex, viz. The Abbeville i
Mrdiurn. whose editor is Miss Crace !
Hemphill, and The Brauchvillei
Journal, whose editorial sanctum is I
presided over by Miss Estella;
Snioak. Both these voung women
i
ara "making good'' iu every sense
and are shining ornaments to the
Fourth Estate of South Carolina,
and it is uoi mere idle compliment
to that the work of
their heads and hands will com-|
par? favorably with that of seasoned
veterans iu the ranks of
journalism. It is peculiarly interc*t;ag
to LOte that both of
these bright and brainv newspaper
women at cue time taught school
iu Williamsburg county, Miss
Hemphill at Johosonvillc andj
Mies Stnoak?unless we are mis-'
taken - in the Cades section.
When a subscriber pays up what
he owes and requests his copy of
the paper discontinued it isn't
nwwcarr ufhl mi u.nrd <if nnrtl.
ogy or even explanation. It is
purely a business transaction and
we aie just as grateful for past
favors as for present or expectant
ow.% True, we would prefer never |
td lose a single subscriber oncej
he enrolls on our list, but we!
take it for granted that when aj
man wants to <juit the paper hej
knows his ow u business best and j
we haven't a word of complaint.!
No one who stops his copy of the!
. I
paper need entertain any fears of;
causing the plant to shut down,!
as we have enough left to runj
cn quite a while longer. And
then, to?', on the average oue|
subscriber lost is replaced by two
new ones.
Nothing about a woman's nature

?
Childreu especially like Kennedy's'
laxative Congh Syrup, as it tastes
nearly as good as maple sugar. It
not only heals irritation and allays
inflammation, thereby stopping the
cough, but it also moves the bowels
gently and in that way drives the
cold from the system. It contains no
opiates. Sold by D C Scott, M D.
Demorest Comedy Co.
The Demorest Comedy Uom!
pany opened a week's engage|
ment ^at the opera house last
night with the pretty play "The
Miner's Daughter," The largest
crowd of the season was present
and was simply carried away
with the play. Each and every
member is an artist in their line,
but lack of space prevents special
mention of each. It is the
best we have had since "67."
Ona Demorest in the role of
"The Miner's Daughter" was
sweet, graceful and easy and is
far above the average.
The Musical Deraorests playing
on their many novelty instruments
were great, the "organ
chimes" being a feature,and
we kindly request them to re
peat the act again this week.
Mr Charles White as Zeke is a
leading man of ability and made
many friends. Marie DeGafferelly
was excellent.
Tonight they present the funniest
of all farce comedie.s "A
Midnight Elopement" which
promises to be great. Prices 25
and 35 cents.?Georgetown Item.
Death of Mrs. Lula Kinder.
