Mr Thomas McCutchen.one of the livest Ford agents in the State, this week received two cars of their autos. That the Ford is a popular car in Williamsburg county cannot be disputed, and from the number of this and other popular cars sold in this county within the past six months we are led to believe that times are not nearly so hard financially as the popular cry indicates.

We return appreciative thanks to our esteemed friend, Hon S A. Graham of Heinemann, for a nice lot of home-made pork sausage, which, he informs us, is a "small reminder of some of the good things which grow on farms on the Santee." We assure him that this was not as small a reminder as he may think,for its presence on the breakfast table tempted us to partake of a portion, thereby dissolving the ironclad injunction of i our physician against eating meat| other than fish or fowl.

Delightiul Entertainments Given i in Town ttie Past Few Days. Mrs R J McCabe was hostess at a charming "pink tea" Thursday afternoon in honor of Miss Martha Crittenden of Shellman, Ga. Covers were laid for eleven around a table attractive in the extreme. Gleaming candles with rosy shades cast a soft glow oyer the snowy cloth, and masses of pink carnations added fragrance as well as beauty. The dainty color scheme was cleverly carried out through each tempting course. Those who enjoyed Mrs McCabe's hospitality were: Mesdames R C McCabe, Hugh McCutchen.W T Wilkins, P S McChesncy,W V Brockington, L W Gilland, Misses Ada Brockington, Martha Crittenden, Selma Thorn and Dr Sophia Brunson of Sumter. The same evening Miss Crittenden was the honoree at a "suffragette" party given by Mrs L W Gilland. Upon admittance, the guests were presented with tiny yellow ribbons bearing the words, "Votes for women". Two contests afforded great amusement. The first was to write a telegram, each word of which was to begin with a letter taken from the words, "Woman suffrage". Mrs Hugh McCutchen won the prize, a rolling pin. The other contest was a "suffrage tea," in which the answers to six questions were required to end in the word "tea". Miss Crittenden, proving most successful, was awarded a little photograph inscribed,"I have no friends,so I guess I'll be a suffragette." Those present were: Rev and Mrs P S McChesney, Mr and Mrs Hugh McCutchen, Mr and Mrs W T Wilkins, Mr and tylrs L C Dove, Mrs R J McCabe, Dr and Mrs R C McCabe, Dr Sophia Brunson, Misses Selma Thorn,Ada Brockington, Martha Crittenden, Rev H D Bull, LeRoy Lee and J D O'Bryan, Esqs, Messrs Ira A Calhoun and W S Gilland.

If you have poultry, eggs, butter, vegetables or any kind of canned goods to dispose of, consult Miss Edwards. Miss Lucy Quarles of Trenton, who has been teaching the McClary school during the past winter, was to leave this old county yesterday to return home, and today perhaps her loved ones there are wondering why she hasn't arrived. "There's a reason." Like many other young ladies who have come into this, grand old county, she permitted that little elf, Cupid, with his drawn bow and arrow, to frighten her out of the trip, and now she is a full-fledged Williamsburg lady?Mrs David C Brown. The ceremony was performed at the manse at 8 o'clock Tuesday evening by Rev P S McChesney. Have you noticed the color of the paper used by most of the city dailies of late? Instead of being white, it has a yellow tinge. This is due to a scarcity of dye materials and is what we are all coming to in the near future. Colored print paper used in the average shop for bill work,etc, is getting scarcer each day and it is only a question of time when it cannot be obtained at all. The colors at present are decidedly dim, and it looks as if the printer were cuttine down on expenses and getting an inferior grade of paper. Such is not the case, however, as the poorly-colored stock of today costs the printer more than the gaudy colors of yesterday. The Record has not turned yellow yet, but will most likely be forced to do so after our present supply of print paper has become exhausted. Jewelry Sale Starts March 13.

HER SYSTEM RUN DOWN Sbe look Seven Bottles of Tantac and fltitoimn?t ll'nnila?(lil Doliaf .lifolflht UUIdlUGU HUUUGIIUI IIOIIUI iibiym Greatly Increased. "I think Tanlac has been blessed. It has done me and so many others so much good," is the praise given the master medicine by Mrs Fannie Heron,of 1810 Taylor St, Columbia, wife of an employee of the Columbia Street Car company, in her story of the almost wonderful relief Tanlac brought her. Mrs Heron must know what it is to suffer the keenest pain, for she was confined to her bed for five months with rheumatism. She could not turn herself, and every move meant the keenest pain. She began taking Tanlac,and now she can walk several blocks without suffering pain or feeling tired. She has taken sev en bottles ot Tanlac ana now weigns more than she ever weighed before, she said. Her remarkable endorsement of Tan lac follows: "I suffered awful agony from rheumatism of the nerves and muscles. I was forced to remain in bed all the time for five months and the pain was so intense that it seemed at times I could not endure it. During those five months every move meant the keenest pain. I could not even turn over in bed, so much did my muscles pain me. "Indigestion, with which I also uffered, caused me great pain. It was awful. My system was run down, and I lost weight. "I heard of the great relief Tanlac had brought to others in Columbia .and I began taking it. I have taken seven bottles. I can now walk several blocks without feeling pain or becoming tired. I am much stronger now and in go^d spirits. My relief is simply wonderful, and I know it is all due to Tanlac, for I took no other medicine along with it. "I actually weigh more now than I have ever weighed before. I intend to continue taking Tanlac until I have completely recovered from all my ailments and my strength has been fully regained. I think Tanlac has been blessed,it has done me and so many others so much good. "A large number of mv friends are taking Tanlac upon my recommendation. I can heartily recom^ T o 1 n^ncf nrarv via.
