WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBEB 16. In childhood's days the world is small, -I And though from house to house we roam, A mother's smile., a mother's heart _ Will always make each house the home. With childish faith we bear her tell "Of mansions "fair and Heaven's bright dome Bu* all we know or dream of Heaven We always find within the home. Jo after years the world grows wide, And distant hinds and-oceans foam "Hay stretch between ; our hearts still tura With love and longing for our home. ?Bat ah I the dread time comes at last ; "Ehe heart is stilled, the hand at rest, The faithful heart and willing bands, That made the home so loved and blest. Then wider, longer, grows the space 0*er which our loving thoughts must .fly, tFar, fae beyond earth's confines small, To **woFids of light beyond the sky." tearful eyes and broken hearts, r_ac_.to our childhood's faith we come ; Where'er she is we know is Heaven, Where'er she dwells we still cali home. ?? -Albany Argus. Our State Contemporaries. iPe-Siogs for Needy Confederate Soldiers. St, Georges News. At a recent meeting in Edgefield res? olutions were -adopted requesting each -county ia the State to send a delegation to the next session of the Legislature 40 urge upon that body a petition to make some appropriation for the relief of the disabled soldiers of the State ; ?Iso that a special list bc made of all permanently disabled soldiers in each county. The end sought to be attained has oar hearty sympathy. Mr. B. F. Tillman has charged that ?wyers at the last session of the Legis? lature accepted fees to pass bills. It is in order for him now to give the names | ^&f those lawyers and the proofs of what hs alleges. Beforms. ^Nochern/ Herald. _ "We reaU a great deal in macy.of OUF j .eotemporaries about reforms. It is very etttce.to write aboat retrenchment and ?reform, and it is very easy to generalize aad talk about the beauties of reform j and the great benefit to be derived from j 'needed reforms in our government and ; tits administration. What we want j -some of these r?formers to do is to file ?a bill of particulars and let the people know wherein these reforms cac be made. Our -cotemporary, the Colum? bia Register, in a recent issue, has an editorial on needed reforms, but it only ttys* reforms are needed without telling tts how these reforms are to be made. For instance, it says : 'We hold .that Ute Trial Jastice .system is eminently J .defective in its operation. Reform *that.? Yes, reform it. Bat what we desire to know, and what the people would like to know is, how and wherein is it defective ? Point out its deficiencies. We do not pretend to say that it is not defective. Bat wherein ? Give us something better or improve this system before yoa tear it down, is the better plan. Bickens Sentinel. The more we think about the inspec? tor basiness, the firmer are oar convic 4ieas:that there should be one for thc State. Year after "year men arc elect? ed to olSces ta every cos-aty ia the state who have had tittle or no basiness es- ! penence. With a good Inspector each j enanty would in two years tii_e have a ! ?set of officers trained to all the rules of j ?business pertaining to" their respective ! -duties. It is a safeguard to tue best?-of j mea to have some one to look over their | shoulder and make suggestions and cor? rect mistakes. The Steamboat Company. . : Camden Journal. *We had a conference last week with ,one of the gentlemen who is endeavor- j ?lng to get a steamer for the Wateree, j sud he told us that negotiations were ; 00 foot for the purchase of one steamer, i ?and possibly two. However, the rail- j road bridges are such obstacles that j tthey are in a quandary as to how they j are to pasts them without delay. It is j probable that the Legislature will be j petitioned to pass an Act requiring the j railroad officials to have draw spans j glaced in their bridges at an early day i in order to permit of uninterrapted nav- ! igation of the Wateres. ' It is the intention of the company to ? .dase?o?pthe -lumber business along the ! ?aiser, and in this way keep the steam- : -ers busy during both winter and sum- ! -mer. They believe that the stave j business alone will be sufficient to keep j rone steamer busy, and the cypress shin- j gles will give a big business to another, j The prospect for a good and paying ; business for the steamers is bright, ac- ; cording to hi? views, and vre .trust that j abondant success may crown th-r iSfforts. Courtenay for Governor? Farmers' Friend. ! Among thc names mentioned for the ! next Democratic candi Jate for Gov- j ernor of South -Carolina is that of ; rCapt. W. A. Courtenay, the present ; mayor of Charleston. And there is ? hardly the shadow of a doubt that ! ?Capt- Courtenay would willingly accept j the nomination were it tendered h ita. fii? political eye was cast in that J tree- I fcion, -ia fact, for some time previous co I the last State Convention. tits oficial i movements since that ti-nc have, it is j plata enough, been with an eye single j .to the Gubernatorial aoartbanon Capt. : Courtenay wants it, and he i* working ; for it. He believes, too. that he stands j a fair chance of getting it. But Capt. Courtenay is not the mao 1 for Governor of South Carolina. ? [Io knows nothing of the wants of a large \ majority of the j^or?le be would be j .called upon to govern. If he kaetv their wanta he would care nothing abeu- j them, any farther than concerned the j ?Uterests pf himself and the city of j which he is now thc chief executive. ; The people of Charleston would, of j coarse, like to see Capt Courtenay j made Governor of thc Stats, because ' they believe that be would govern th: State's affairs d?rec-tiy is thc interest ! of that city. No doubt he would. He is strictly a Charleston mnn, r.nd lo ?ks on the Charleston side of ererythu?g. Bot what is Charleston's interest is not i always the whole State's inierest. ft ] would not be right to give Charleston i any advantage through-the government j which would be detrimental to other j sections vf the State. For these reasons, and various others : which could be mentioned. Capt. ; Courtenay is not the man that the peo? ple of South Carolina want for Go ver- ! cor. He is Dot the mac that 'hey will nominate for Governor ia 18SS. He ?oes not stand the ghost of a show for it. Charleston, and possibly one or two of the other lower counties, will push his name forward for the nomina? tion, but the upper and middle counties will be more than likely to go dead against him. it is claimed by Capt. Courtenay's friends that he has accomplished won? ders as mayor of Charleston. Possibly he has, but he lias wonderful opportuni? ties to do it. Let him stay in Charles? ton and accomplish some more. ' The up-country doesn't like wonders ; nor political ring masters. The London J&ispatck cf Sunday, edited by Dr. Hunter, member of Parliament for a Scotch constituency, has the folllowing editorial : President Cleveland has returned from a royal progress through the States the most popular man in Ameri? ca and the most successful president -since Lincoln. Four years ago he was j hardly known beyond the borders of his own State. Three years ago he was Sghtiog his way to the presidency through a storm of disgraceful and undeserved obloquy unparalleled even in the personalties, lits honesty, his modesty, his courage and his loyalty to public duty are qualities which have conquered 'tko -esteem of his country? men. These qualities have probably not served him so well with the profes? sional managers of the Democratic par? ty, many of whom barre been scandalized to find that their candidate actually meant what ce .professed ; but Mr. Cleveland will, to all appearances, live down the disaffection of a section of his supporters, as he has lived down the rancor of his onecuents. If the Dem ocrats wi?h to score an easy victory next year they will nominate him again for the presidency; if they fail to do so the chaaces are that he will be nomi? nated-possibly eves -elected-by the independent men of all parties. \ HOW DO WE m 0?H8R?YES? "We masc eat or we cannot live. This we all know. But do we all know that we dio bj eating ? It is said we dig ?ur graves with our teeth. How foolish this sounds, ?et it is fearfully true. We are ter? rified at the approach of the cholera and yelioV fever, yet there is a dis? ease constantly:?t t our doors and in our.houses far more dangerous and destructive. Mest people have in their own stomachs a poison, more slow, but quito as fatal as the germs of those maladies which sweep men into eternity by thousands without j warning in the times of great epi- j demies. But it is a mercy that, if we are watchful v= e can tell when we are threatened. The following are among the symptoms, yet they do not always necessarily appear "in the same order, nor are they always the same in din-vent cases. There is a dui? and sleepy feeling; a bad taste in the mouth, especially in the morning; the appetite is change? able, sometimes poor and again it seems as though the patient could not eat enough, raid occasionally no appetite at all; dullness and slug? gishness cf the mind; no ambition to study cr work: mere or less head? ache and heaviness in the head; ? dizziness on rising to the feet cr ! moving suddenly; furred .md coat? ed tongue; a sor ss of a lead cn the stomach that nothing removes : ,hot and dry skin at times ; yellow 'tinge j in the eyes; scanty and high-colored ! urine ; sour taste in the mouth, fre? quently attended by palpitation of the heart; impaired vision, with spots that seem to be swimming in the air before the eyes; .a ccug?, with a greenish-colored expecto- i ration; poor nights'rest; a stkky | slime about the teeth and gums; hands and feet cold and clammv : ? irritable icurxr and bowels bound ? up and costive. "This disease has I puzzled the physicians and still puz? zles them. It is thc commonest of ailments and yet ?ihe most conro?i cated au? i nvyst^sious. Sometimes it is treated as -consumption, some? times as-'liver complaint, and then again as malaria and even heart dis? ease. But its r- fd nature is that of constipation and dyspepsia, it arises in the digestive organs and soon affects all the others through the corrupted and -poisoned blood. Often the whole body-including the nervous system-is literally starved-, even v. lien there is no ! emaciation to tell the sad sto-ry. j Experience-has shown that there is I ?put one re:::.- Iv that e:i<i certainlv cure tins uisease in all its stages, j namely, Shaker Extract of Roots or I Mesner be.;/.-.- s \ uranve Syrup.
