1t is notorious eact that the re-

Creek says the dispensary did 1T.

Bills of sale, liens for rent and
advances, mortgages, titles, a new
lot, for sale at this office. We
have a lien in stock the verbiage
of which, dictated by a distin-
guished lawyer of the Edgefeld
bar, is guaranteed to hold a niger,
a mule, or an eel.
There are some who think mixed
breeds are better than thorough
hreds. To accommodate those 1
have crossed a choice lot of Silver
Laced Wyandott hens, (too light
for the show room and the breed
ing pen) with Golden Laced Wyan-
dotts and Barred Plymouth Rock
Cocks. Eggs Is cents per dozen,
cash. Address, w. D. QUITS, Elm
wood, S. c.
This is worth testing, says an
exchange: Ask your friend if he
or she were born in the day time
or the night, If they cannot tell
you, tell them to clasp their hands
with their fingers interlaced and
you will tell them. Now some peo-
pie will do this by bringing the
right thumb over the left, and all
such were born at night. The same
person always does the same way.
You will find that the person who
clasps the left thumb over will un-
viably express surprise that any
one would doit otherwise.

Hogs ON Horns Creek.
Among the returns made to Au-
ditor Haltiwanger gentleman of
the Horns Creek section returned
one hundred hogs as owned by him
on the 1st day of January. Remem-
Der this is only the hog item; we
have no doubt that at this date he
has in addition about eleven hun
dred pigs, and when on some windy
March afternoon those pigs. and
their mothers and fathers, each
with a little bush in it's M outh
begin to squeal, Horns Creek val
ley becomes q perfect Dedlam,
pandeuonium. We envy the owner
of the pigs, but not the squeals.
