sDO, Mr.. Devil, Don't Chain mev'

A large dog belonging to a gentle.
man living in Summerville was sto-
len from him several days before the
great shock. Like many others, the
gentleman on the night of the 31st
of August ran out of his house to es-
cape being crushed. While he was
moving around in the darkness the
second shock came and with it his
faithful dog dragging heavy chain.
The animal leaped upon him, but the
gentleman, not recognizing him and
hearing the clanking Of the chain,
threw up his arms and exclaimed
"Do, Mr.. Devil, don't chain me;
please Mr.. Devil. don't chain me.
I'll go with you, but don't chain me-"
It was some time before his dog
could make him understand he was
no5 the evil.--Sunday Dispatch.

How It Is.

How It Is.
The farmer who raises his own
meat and bread carries home more
money when he sells his cotton
than the one who raises cotton to
buy those articles with. And the
man who raises provisions on bis
farm seldom has any mortgage to
raise, because it is not necessary to
plant such q curse in order to get
advances to run him through the
year. A mortgage is the hardest
article to raise, after it takes good
root, of anything known to farmer,
and yet it is the easiest to plant,
Beware OF it. everybody, and plant
anything else in preference to it

Friday were very severe in Summer

was more or less damaged by it.
and it is said that at least seventy.
five chimneys we're thrown down or
damaged so much that they will
have TO be rebuilt In Charleston
it was also severe, and did much
damage there. Though it did not
last as long as the severe shake on
the 31st of August. it is said to have
been next to it in severity. Many
chimneys and brick walls in Camden
which apparently were not damaged
by the big quake on August 31st
show cracks and openings now.
Our people were beginning to feel
safe, thinking that the trouble was
over, but Fridays renewal of the
quakes has almost unnerv' d some of
them,-and they are afraid that the
worst has not yet come.
