GENU WE OLD FAMILIES.
Soma In Europe and the Orient That
Are Really Anoient.
In Great Britain and on the continent
those families pride themves
that count their ancestry
through ten generations, but their
claims to really ancient lineage
seem insignificant when compared i
with those of certain houses in the i
orient.
We read that the oldest family in i
Great Britain, the Mar family in
Scotland, may trace its pedigree to
1093. Then, too, we have the;
Campbells of Argyll, whose date is:
put down at 1190. The Grosvenor i
family, that of the Duke of West- j
minster, refers its origin to the
same year that the Conqueror
"came over"?i. e., 10G6. The Austrian
house of Hapsburg goes back j
farther than that, its date being
952, while the Bourbons proudly I
mention S64 as the date of their j
origin.
But none of them is to be men- :
tioned in the same breath with the I
emperor of Japan, whose oflic* has \
been filled by members of his fain- !
ilv for a period of over 2,500 years.;
the present ruler being the one I
hundred and twenty-second in the ;
line. The first emperor of Japan
i=at on the throne about the time
when Nebuchadnezzar was flourish- I
ing?that is, in 650 i'?. C.
Another oriental branch, the de I
scendants of Mohammed, present-;
claims not to be dismissed. The |
prophet was born in#570, and a li*: j
of his descendants has been careful1}'
retained, being duly set forth in j
o pnlnmA T .it til' OF '
a ? viumu u\ |'v in .'4v wu.
no doubt exists of the authenticity
of the long list of names of Mohammed's
descendants as registered
in this sacred boo*.?London Standard.
Queen Elizabeth's Amulet.
Queen Elizabeth during her last
illness wore around her neck a
charm made of gold which had been
bequeathed to her bv an old woman
in Wales, who declared that so long
as the queen wore it she would never
be ill. The amulet, as was generally
the case, proved of no avail,
and Elizabeth, notwithstanding her
faith in the charm, not only sickened,
but died. During the plague in
London peoDle wore amulets to
keep off the aread destroyer. Amulets
of arsenic were worn near the
heart. Quills of quicksilver were
hung around the neck and also the
powder of toads.

Her Sod Subject to Croup.
"My son Edwin is subject to
croup," writes Mrs E 0 Irwin, New
Kensington, Pa. "I put in many
sleepless hours at night before I
learned of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Mothers need not fear this
disease if they keep a bottle of Cham,
berlain'h Cough Remedy in the house
in the house and use it as directed.
It always gave my boy relief." Obtainable
everywhere.
Origin of Cotton Thread.
For almost a hundred years no
one thought of making thread other
than from linen and silk. Cotton
was not so much as thought of.
Then Xapoleon, who had been devastating
Europe, thought he would
strike a blow at the silk industry of
Hamburg, and so he caused the
stocks of silk to be burned. The
threadmakers of Paisley thus found
their supplies of raw material eu
off, and they had to look about t<>
find a substitute. Cotton was trie !
and was found to answer the purpose
so well that the ba<is of an entirely
new industry was laid?the
manufacture of cotton thread.

WILLIAMSBURG PAIR ENDS.
Was Big Sneeess?"Old Bines*'
and His Cornet.
The second annual county fair held
by the Williamshur? County Fair
Association came 10 a successful
close Saturday. The day was known
as "The Colored People's Day" and
was attended by the largest gathering
of the race ever witnessed in the
county, the crowd being estimated
at upwards of 3,000, including 1,500
colored school children. The grand i
stands on the grounds were filled j
with people early in the morning!
where they remained patiently and !
orderly until their speakers completed
that part of the day's programme
about 1 p. m.
The Rev Richard Carroll, of Columbia,
who was to be the chief
speaker, failed to come and his place
on the programme was filled by his
son. Seymour Carroll,of Orangeburg.
Among the speakers was the Rev M
M Mouzon, of Charleston, who was
born and reared in this community
and is highly respected by both!
white and colored. His address!
elicited praise from those of the
white people who heard him.
Speeches were also made by members
of the local colored clergy, i
None of the'exhibits were removed
from the premises until afternoon
l
Saturday so as to give the colored 1
attendants an opportunity to view
them, which they did with an apparent
relish. !
In the afternoon a programme of
track events was carried out and a
nnmhpr of Williamhurer neerroes were i
made to feel proud of their horses!
or mules because of their having
won a blue or red jibbon,
During the entire day and until a
late hour Saturday night the Ferris
wheel and merry-go-round were
crowded with riders.
But to the white people who at-1
tended the fair Saturday, the day i
would probably have seemed monot- j
onous, had it not been for the pres- j
ence of "Old Hines," the portly por-1
ter and cornetist, so familiar to the j
traveling people, at Lanes. Hines i
is popular with his own race as well
as the white, is a special feature at i
nearly every Afro-American function
ljeld in this section. So his
presence Saturday added to the enjoyment
of the day, perhaps more
so because he could not "persuade
his old horse to take as lively interest
in the races" as it had done a
year ago, w hen Hines was able to
return to Lane well decorated with
ribbons won by his nag.
From a financial standpoint the

pectations, considering the disadvantages
brought about by the July
storm.
Sufferer from IndlgestlonRelfevied.
"Before taking Chamberlan's
Tablets my husband suffered for several
years from indigestion, causing
him to have pains in the stomach
and distress after eating. Chamberlain's
Tablets relieved him of these
;spells right away," writes Mrs Thos
Casey, Geneva, X Y. Obtainable
everywhere. i
