How Many THOUSANDS Can Testify to This
BY Unhappy Experience!

Young men troubled with emissions in sleep,-a
complaint generally the result of bad habit in
youth-treated scientifically and perfect cure war
ranted.
Hardly day passes but we are consulted by one or
more young men with the above disease some of
whom are as weak and emaciated as though they had
the consumption, and by their friends are supposed
to have it. All such yield to the proper and on
y correct course of treatment and in short time
are made to rejoice in perfect health.

SECRETS OF THE PRE-. Historic Ace
The remains Of antiquity are found in
America from Me1ion to the lakes. Who
those rude and curious people, the
mound builders OF the valley OF the Mis-.
sissippi and Ohio, were, is an uusolved
problem According to the Maine His.
torical Society, traces Of the Northmen-
whether of Lief, son OF Eric the Red,
or OF Biorn, the son of Heriolf, or of
later settlers, is undetermined
been found in that State. Whence came
the city-building Indians of New Mex
leo, and the older Aztec civilization?
Hero are secrets of old days for the an
tiquarian to puzzle his brain over. And
every day is adding something new.
The latest has reference to q number of
ancient copper mines that have been dis.
covered on Isle Royal. in Lake Superior.
On authority OF the Duleth Herald,
shafts Of considerable depth, H!Isd UP
by the accumulated debris of ages, are
being opened, and in penetrating to a
distance of sixty feet, tools of wondrous
workmanship have been found, together
with charcoa! remains, which mark this
as the point where skilled artisans formed
from copper tools whose temper and du-
rability would astonish ingenious mixers
of such things OF the present ago. Ham
mers and chisels seem to have been the
principle implements for working this
mine, md thay, together with fire, were
used to reduce the ore to condition
which rendered its removal in detail
easy. Finely tempered knife blades have
been picked out Of the pit, and granite
hammers.

a F1END1su Acr--G1N-H HOUSE AND
MILL BURNED. On last Friday morning,
about daylight or little after, q fire was
discovered in the large three story gin
house Of Mr.. Thomas W. Lang on the
West side of Wateree River. Tho gin
house was used jointly by Mesars. T6eo-
doTo and Z. II. Lag, ard contained g.
the time of the fire about thirty y.sevcn
bales Of cotton, fifteen of which were
lint, 1000 bushels of cotton seed and ex-
tensiye machinery for ginning cotton and
threshing rice. It seems that when the
house was opened the interior was on
ire to such an extent that it was impos-
slble to enter, ond consequently nothing
was anved, except few bushels of cotton
seed next to the mill race, and about o
bale of stained cotton. The mill adioin-
ing the Clubhouse also caught fire and
burned almost to the waters edgo. The
loss will amount to not less than $4,000,
aud there was no insurance upon the
premises.
This is the fourth case of gin houses
being burnt Ill this County this season,
and it behoovcs every one to keep sharp
lookout upon the fruits OF their years
