Mr S B Poston of Johnsonville was in town several hours Monday. Mr "S B" is a regular captain of industry in the development of the section he has chosen for the field of his activities. The Bjirdin property at Lake City and Scranton, which was sold a few days ago at these places, brought a, little less than $45,000. The pur- j chaser was T Moultrie Mordecai.? | Chart eston Post.

Mr and Mrs Haynesworth are Mrs Jen-j kinson's parents and Mrs Jones is her sister. In dull times the penny-wise business-man "economizes" by cutting down his advertising space, while; the broad-minded merchant pushes his advertising campaign with increased energy. Which class do you belong to, Mr Merchant? Mr John Lesesne.now of Florence,! spent the week-end in town renew-! ing associations and friendships. Mr Lesesne had not been to Kingstree since he went away two years aco! and was much impressed with the town's growth and improvement. Mr G A Cooper,of the Indiantown; section, lost his dwelling by fire last i Thursday. The fire was caused by a | spark from a stove flue. Most of the j furniture was saved, but the build- j ing was totally destroyed. The loss! is about $1,500 with no insurance, j Our friend, General Johnson of I Chapman, while in our office Satur-! day, was seized with a sinking spell and it was feared that he had a serious attack. His illness soon passed off, however, and we are pleased to hear that he suffered no further indisposition. Mr H A Miller, the enterprising proprietor of the People's Market, has installed a gasoline engine outfit for grinding meat for sausage/and1 bone, etc, for poultry feed.

Mr J J Eaddy of Leo was here Tuesday attending the board of equalization meeting. Mr Eaddy is, in the area wanting to go to Florence and while he favors the move he says that it is not because he wants to leave the old county, but merely as a matter of convenience and expediency. : I Will . By ' I KWB? m HBHg B UiUittUUUUUUUiUiMittUUUi # Mr?Martin, who has for several months been railway mail clerk between Kingstree and Florence, was transferred to the Charleston-Jacksonville route on Monday. We congratulate Mr Martin on his promotion but greatly regret his departure from Kingstree, where he is highly esteemed by all. We respectfully ask all who send rolls of honor and other communications comprising lists of names to be very careful to write all proper names plainly. The names may seem easy to read to the writer, but ofitimes the printer would have to be a mind-reader to decipher the chirography of correspondents. Yet it seems so funny when we print a name wrong. While visiting here with his family last week, Mr M F Haynesworth of Florence had an unpleasant and rather expensive experience. Mr Haynesworth was taking a ride in his automobile and on the narrow and dangerous cause-way just across the river the machine in some way collided with a horse ridden by a negro, breaking the horse's leg, it is said. Mr Haynesworth says that he took every reasonable precaution and while he felt in no way to blame for the accident, yet he paid the value of the horse rather than have the owner suffer the loss. We have printed up a lot of note books and receipt forms, which we will sell at ten cents the book of fifty. tf Electric bS?S?" bitters and kidneys Help Yourself by Helping Us. We hope the friends of The Record, when they come to town to do their trading, will patronize the business houses that advertise in this paper. Remember that without these liberal merchants, bankers and other enterprising business men, the price of subscription would be at least $3 a year for such a paper as The Recr\ op o fV\of tlio UI U. 1UU 11 liliu, ao a i uiv. , tuuw wnv men who advertise are wide-awake and on the alert and can give you better bargains than those who do not advertise. This applies not only to Kingstree, but many live and upto-date business men of Lake dity, Scranton and Greelyville recognize the pulline power of an ad in The Record. tf > -?'b?ir?ir?f-i"?ir *$' I "Mone: :: Worth C I have succeeded in gettir T burg county with the celebr t OaKlai a machine that has been loot | fection. ii C The car is simple, strong, J the most reliable car offered T C These cars are absolu I the buyer takes no chance, in your own county their opi; 7" locrue and demonstration, if 1 pect to be soon.
