Rev. NJ. NJ. Brabham was called to
Ninety-Six to marry two couples at
that place this week. This makes the
fifth marriage ceremony he has per-
formed at his old pastorate since he
left it, showing how much beloved he
was and is.
The Aiken Recorder says, "We
learn that the Langley Manufacture
ing Company contemplates making
considerable additions to the mill at
Langley. Another story will be add
ed to the old portion, and an addition
also built in the quadrangle between
the old and the new portions. These
additions will afford room for about
10000 new spindles and 400 looms.

The Value of Coins.
The value of gold coin is in its
weight; the value of silver coin is the
government stamp Oh 1t. The value
of Simmons Liver Regulator is the re-
lief it gives from Biliousness and Sick
Headache. a 25-cent package OF pow
der has permanently cured many a
one.
History of Edgefield.
Mr.. w. j. McKerall of our town has
the contract for printing "Chapman's
history of Edgefield." 1t will be a
large book, probably five hundred
pages, and i'll addition to the general
historical narrative gives specia |
sketches of many prominent families
in the county which VIII. be of great
me
Here's a,Prize. --!
There ought to be person in every
town to go around and tell everybody
what other people think Of them,
whether good, bad, or Indifferent. 1t
would open our eyes. Of course such
a person would be very odious, but he
or she would do great deal of good.
1t would make us all better and wiser.
Who in Edgefield Will volunteer for
the first round? Take the names in
alphabetical order commencing with
the BIS. We will give the ADvERTI-
SER one year free to the first person in
our town who undertakes this task.
A Stark-Naked Fool.
Corn is going up. Another reason
why we should plant largely this year.
At JohnstonFs this cereal is bringing
so and 65 cents per bushel so we are
informed. There is really more clear
money in corn at 30 cents a bushel
than in cotton at cents pound, and
certainly great deal more satisfac-
tion. From letter received from Liv-
erpool last week, and published in an
other column, we gather that &C. oss
the water cotton buyers are banking
on four cents cotton next fall. In the
face Of this and the immense crop OF
this year and the large stock on nand,
the farmer WHO plants for big cotton
crop this year is to speak plainly, a
stark-naked fool.
Our County Seal.
The new county government law re-
quires that the county supervisors
shall have seals, and that impressions
of these seals shall be filed with the
Secretary of State to prevent counter
felt seals beiug imposed on the State
when papers are stamped. We sug-
gest that the Edgefeld County seal be

supervisor, seated a-straddle of Mark
