The harder the year, the greater the

are the appeals TO Charitable institu-

day by day, for support on the gifts Of
those who have heart to feel for the

There are now in the 0rphanage at

clothed, fed and carefully taught and
| trained in useful industries, are pro-
tected and aided, and when able to
care for themselves, are helped to Sc
cure good situations. All this is ac-
complished at an expense OF about IS
a month for each orphan. Would you

children, send your five dollars to The

Fire Estingulshers

We were present last Monday when
the Taylor 4 Co.'S Fire Extinguisher
WAS tested. a frame building was
erected for the purpose out OF dry
boards, and OH the inside were cotton
mud sharingS saturated with Kerosene
oil. The building was set on fire by Mr..
/ G. q. Lane the agent, and in few sec
ouds the whole frame WIS in blaze,
aud was In n burning way. When Mr..
Lane yelled out to the gentlemen who
was to start the extinguiShcr to work
to turn II on," he was afraid the fire
had got too great headway, but it was
soon found TO be under control. The
cNtingulsher works admirably, and
We think every farmer or person who
has any need for anything of this kind
should not be without one OF these eN-
tingnisherS.

other words many people taken with
the cheap rate afforded by the man.
agement availed themselves of the ride
OF over hundred miles for )cts., and

O'Clock, and one hundred and twenty

Joined this already large party and
steamed away for the fair capital.
Going down this joyful and iovial hui
man freight was as happy as 4 cheap
ride, Sunday clothes, lunch baskets,
and delightful prospect of sight see
ing could make them. Coming back
however was not as happy as the ring
ing OF marriage bells. all was hurry
and confusion; some did not know the
time of departure, and the consequence
was many reached the car too soon,
and had to wait until their patience
was nearly exhausted; some barely
made the time, it was nip and tuck
with them, better late than never
however; some few we learned failed
to get there and had to remain over all
night one lady we heard of got left
she was telegraphed for by her dis
consulate husband who failed to get
the tidings so anxiously longed for.
We are happy to say she has been
found. Another accident occurred in
the disappearance Of a child after the
train reached Newberry. Long and
diligent search was made, and at
length when hope was about running
into despair, the little fellow was found
in the embrace of a negro man, who
was saving him for his parents. We
pass over the joyful meeting and the
no less joyful finding. These two are
among the many happenings resulting
from excurting at a 80 cents rate to
Columbia and back. We like to go to
Columbia, but not in this hurried way

foR TnE HERALD


Mr.. EDITOR AS many Of my
old friends are desirous Of knowing
what success l have had in the
poultry business, in Kansas, l
give you my experience. Over q
year ago / made two very crude
hatchers designed from some good
points of several l had seen. l
filed them with eggs, and they
worked fairly we'll. l kept them
going from Dec. 1st, to June 1st,
clearing from them $3.50, over and
above everything and that too in
spite of high price of feed and the
fact that my chickens were all mar
keted at low prices, the highest I
got was Sc doz., and the lowest
S3.75, during that time l attended
to my regular business, believing
this was good return for the
amount of work. l began to look
around for a more perfect hatcher
and my attention was directed to
the Common Sense. In June | GOT
directions from j. NJ. Balm, New
Concord o. He is Sec. Of the n.
C. Poultry Association and will
send directions for making this
hatcher to any one sending 80 cent
stamps to prepay postage. had
one made that held $50 eggs, cost
about 81, my success with this
hatcher was Ill l could wish for and
l Immediately had four more made.
From these five hatchers / have just
taken 1000 fine chickens out of Il
little less th;n 1900 eggs, l believe
I am placing it modestly when | say
that I hope to clear $2500 by July
next, and still pursue my usual
business. There is no business as
profitable as his is, provided one
gives it the attention it deserves,
and no business requires as little
capital to start on. There is no
necessity of men trying to hide this
business or monopolize it, the field
is the world and the world like Oil
yer Twist is crying out for more.
There arc thousands of young men
who are teacher. and clerks who
look forward to the time when they
can get start in some lucky way.
This way is here open for them if
they will only improve by it.
Thousands of young women too who
feel dependent on some father or
brother in one year could place
themselves above any dependece f
they only would. Get directions
and make your hatchers immediate
ly as you can make them your selves.
Respectfully Yours,
L. L. J.

The Eagle and Phoenix mill in
the south, will pay a dividend of
eight per cent on its capital of ST.
$4,000. The success of this cor
poration has been remarkable. It
was reorganized about 1867, and
since then has paid $l,370,00o in
dividends and built out Of its earn
ings new mill costing S1,000,000,
and has large surplus besides. 1t
is now proposed to still further en-
large its operations by erecting a
new mill at an expense of $960,000.
1t is reported in Washington that
Gen. Arthur would be pleased with
the nomination either of Lincoln or
Gresham, as then the nomination
would 60 to his Cabinet, and that
Blaine makes no secret of saying to
his friends that the arrangements
must be begun at once to secure the
nomination either of Gen. Sherman
or Of Senator Harrison as soon as
the complimentary ballots are taken.
The election of either of these would
place Blaine back in the State De-
