During the summer months overheated
people are likely to drink more cold
water than is safe or healthful. A small
quantity slowly imbibed will give better
results than large draughts hastily taKen.
The seat of thirst is located in the back OF
the throat and contact of water with that
point gives the relief sought. Less than
glass Of water will appease the most
ardent craving if taken in small sips, q
breath being drawn and expelled between
swallows. Try it.

Mrs. Ella Marshall, the beloved wife of
Rev. A, A. Marshall, pastor of the Bap-
tist Church in this city, died last Thurs
day afternoon at the parsonage, aged about
80 years. Mrs. Marshall came to Ander-
son not quite year ago, and has been
confined to the house nearly ever since
she came. She was afflicted with that
fatal disease, consumption, and bore her
sufferings with that patience and fortitude
characteristic of q true christian. Those
whose pleasure it was to form her ac-
squaintance found her most noble and
excellent lady. She leaves behind her a
husband and four small children, who
have the deepest sympathy of our entire
city in: their bereavement. The remains
were inferred in the Baptist cemetery
Friday afternoon, in the presence of a
large concourse of friends, Rev. is. Muir
ray, assisted by Rev. D. L. Frierson and
Rev. B. M. Pack, conducting the funeral
services.
One day last week man named VIM.
Kennedy and his family, consisting of a
wife and eight children, passed through
the city on their way to Americus, Ga.
They were travelling in small wagon,
drawn by an OK. The wagon halted on
the Square for short time, and attracted
a crowd around it. Mr.. Kennedy said he
had come from Greene County, Va, hay-
ing left there about 5th of April. Hesaid
he was native Of Americas, Ga, and
had left there to go into the war. His
4 Company went to Virginia, and shortly
before the surrender he was wounded and
left on the battlefield. He became sepa-
rated from his Company, and was never
able to reach it again. After he sd re-
covered from his wounds, he married and
settled down in Virginia, where he had
ever since resided. He said he had fre-
auently written to his relatives at Ameri-
Gus, Ga, bqt had meyer received word
from them in reply. He finally made up
his mind to return to his native home,
which he expects to reach about the mid:
die July. His children were all small,
and among them were two sets Of twin
boys. His property besides his wagon
and OK, consisted of straw bed, few
cooking utensils and two dogs.
1t was our good fortune to spend a few
hours at Pelzer last ::Fr iday and meet q
number Of her good citizens. To say that
our visit was most pleasant one would
be expressing it mildly. Three years had
elapsed since our last visit there, and We
could see that many improvements had
been made within that time. The cotton
mill has been considerably enlarged, and
the work is still going on. A large yarn
mill is now in process Of erection. Pelzer
is certainly model town, but it could not
be otherwise with such gentleman as
