The latest development in the
milk business in London is to drive
the COWS around the route and
have them MIXED in the presence
of the consumer. The customer is
thus able to judge for himself Of
the healthy appearance. of the
animal, and is sure of fresh milk.
The practice is common and
ancient one in Egypt.

Edgefeld has four candidates
for Office now sloshing around with
the band wagon, Butler and Till
man and Timmermen and Yeldell.
In an interview in The State OF
Monday Senator Butler expresses
himself satisfied with the weeks
campaigning. We suppose Till
man is equally happy if not more
80.
"Coxeyite" Butler and "New-
bold" Tillman are the latest nlcks
respectively of Senator Butler and
Governor Tillman.
Bunch, the bamboozler, was on
the stand at Lancaster.
Butler had the crowd at Rock
Hill; Tillman had it at Yorkville !;
Butler at Chester; Tillman at Lam
caster, Camden, and Sumter-four
out of six.
John Gary Evans led in the
gubernatorial race from Rock Hill
to Sumter, with Tindal and Ellerbe
good seconds.
DR.. Zimmerman as candidate
for Lieutenant Governor is practl-
cally without opposition. He an
nounced at Yorkville, which was
his first appearance at a campaign
meeting, that he was a candidate
for Lieutenont Governor and was
running on his personal beauty,
that he must be fine looking man
or he never would have been able to
marry twice-the women thought
80 at least.
Cal Caughman, candidate for
Congress, spoke at Sumter on last
Saturday and, according to The
State, perspired gallon, and de-
molished the, welkins roundabout.
Tillman's best speech of last
week was at Sumter, indeed it was
the only speech made during the
week by anybody that had any meat
in it.
And DR.. samps Pope says that
honesty is the best policy even in
politics.
We notice disposition on the
part of many of the Reform can
didatos for State offices to pitch
into or jump Oh Senator Butler.
This isn't toting fair, gentlemen.
Tillman is Buffers antagonist
proper and let him hoe his own
row. Besides not being fair, this
sssrt of double teaming makes But

Nothing succeeds like success"
The public looks upon the adver-
tising of a merchant as a
thermometer of his business. If 1t
is large and we'll defined, they
believe he deserves and is enjoy
ing prosperity, and so patronlze
him. If, on the other hand, it is
small and contracted, it gives the
appearance of poor business, and
thus freezes away custom. Adver-
tising, like the stars, never sleeps.
