We are Orphans and Fatherless.
LAMENTATIONS V: 8.

LAMENTATIONS ..
is there heart no hatd that it cannot
be touched by the plea of fatherless,
motherless child for protection and help?
We cannot think of you as other than
a friend to the orphans. Their unpro'
tected, helpless condition appeals to you
so tenderly, that you are more apt to give
beyond your ability than under it.
Here, at the Thornwell Orphanage are
s hundred (think of it), whose sole
help ia the God Of the fatherless.
They are here, gathered in from the
ten different States of our Southland,
from Maryland to Texas, and from eight
different religious denominations. Many
of them would be literally alone in the
world, but that they have you and Gods
servants here, to love, to comfort and to
care for them.
With active hands, day by day, they
try to help themselves. Were you to
visit them, how busy you would find
them, working industriously in the
kitchen and laundry. in sewing room or
work shop. in the farm or in the printing
Office. Because they are busy both in
school and out of it, they are happy.
But they would not be so, if you we're
to fail them, for then all this work must
needs stop. 1t cannot go on without
money or supplies, and there is none of
it here, to give them. We are just as
poor as you would be, if you had a hun
dred children to feed and clothe, and not
dollar in the world to do it with.
Our help does not come from any other
source than Gods own Presbyterian peo.
pie. Once in awhile, a few others con-
tribute, but it is those who own these
houses, that must provide for their in
mates, and you own them. Would you
like to know how to help US:
We need five dollars every month to
provide food and raiment for each child
under our care. or eight dollars to meet
every possible pro rata expense. But
then if you cannot support one child, the
smallest gift: if only dime, will help. Z
We need provisions! Boxes of all
kinds of groceries, barrels of -four, joints
of meat, peas and rice, and sugar and
molasses. Have you any of these things
to send?
We need clothing and shoes, sheets
and pillow cases, towels and handker-
chiefs, and soap to wash them and thread
and buttons wherewith to mend them.
Very soon we are to open our new
Library building. We would so like to
have some nice new books for our shelves,
or some real good pictures or adornments
for our walls.
But what it shall be, what kind of help
you will give, you shall decide. Only
remember this, that these are your little
brothers and sisters, for yOu are the
Lords own, and these are His fatherlesa
little ones.
If you send money address it to Rev.
VIM. P. Jacobs, Clinton, S. G. If you
aend boxes or barrels, ship 70 "Thorn-
we'll Orphanage," Clinton, S. @.

Herald and Tribune Notes.

A very remarkable statement was
made on our streets this week by a son
of Christy Wines, whose father died
last spring at the age of 81 years. He
reared a family of eleven children all
of whom are still living, the Oldest one
is seventy years, while the youngest Of
the family is about fifty years Of age.
While assisting in rolling a car on
the side track Monday, Alex Mathes
received serious injury by straining
his back, and has been in a critical
condition ever since. We hope that
nothing very serious may result from
the injury, and that he may be out
again in few days.

Sickness in the Country.

Reports from the country indicate
that there is at this time more than
the usual amount of sickness prevail
ing. Most of these troubles seem to
arise from an impure condition of the
blood, caused by an excessive secretion
of bile. This causes secretion of bill
lious character, and we regret to say
in some places it has proved very ia
tai. We, therefore, offer this gratui-
tous advice to those not yet afflicted :
Keep your liver in healthy condi-
ton, and your blood rich and pure.
Good blood means good health, whilst
bad blood bad health. Harris Blood
and Liver Pills are entirely vegetable,
and are just the pills needed at this
season Of the year.

special request of the members of the
family, who are Catholics. Mr.. J.
T. Sherman, son of the General,
denounces the insinuations in the
article as slanderouS and false. He
says that the General has not been a

the extreme JUNCTION was not served

Young Mr.. Sherman further stated,
in reference to the serving Of the eX-
