Shall We Meet Again.

The following is one Of most bril-
liant paragraphs ever written by the
lamented George D. Prentice:
The fat of death is inexorable.
There is no appeal for relief from the
great law which dooms US to dust.
We flourish and fade as the leaves of
the forest and flowers that bloom,
wither and fade in day, have no
Trailer hold on life than the mightiest
monarch that ever shook the earth
with his footsteps. Generations Of
men will appear and disappear as
grass, and the multitudes that throng
the world today will disappear as
footsteps on the shore. Men seldom
think of the great event of death
until the shadow falls across their
own pathway, hiding from their eyes
the faces of loved ones whose living
smiles was the sunlight Of their ex-
istentence. Death is the antagonist
of life and the thought of the tomb
is the skeleton of all feasts. We do
not want to go through the dark
valley, although the dark passage
may lead to I aradise, We do not want
to go down into damp graves, even
with princes for bed-fellows. In the
beautiful drama of Ion the hope of
Immortality, so eloquently uttered
by the death devoted Greek, finds
deep repose in every thoughtful soul
When about to yield his life sacri-
fee to fate, his Clemanthe asks if
they should meet again, to which he
responds: I have asked that dread
full question of the hills that look
eternal-of the clear streams that
flow forever-of the stars among
whose fields of azure my raised
spirits have walked in glory. All are
dumb. But as I gazed upon thy liv-
ing face, I feel that there is some
thing in love that mantles through
its beauty that cah1ot wholly perish.
We shall meet again, Clemanthe.'" ,"

a Pleasant Evening.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Last night at eight o'clock, we had
the pleasure of hearing Miss Matte
Jean Adams, the teacher of clocution
of Leesville college.
Miss Adams was gracefully intro
duced to her audience by Rev. j. G.
Graicben. Her program consisted
OF the following pieces:
"The First Settlers Story" ''San-
dy's Romance" Josiah Aliens Wife
on Politics." The Way in Which the
Chichens Found Their Name"
waking the Young 'Uns," ';Archie
Deane in q Dilemma" Nearer My
God to Thee" and almost Per-
suaded," which were pantomimes,
"a Roman Confession to the Priest"
Lullaby" 1.-TWO Much Reading,"
"Description of Circus" ''When l
Am Married" "Quaker Courtship,"
SANS Letter" and burlesque SER
mon with Mother Hubbard and her
dog for the subject.
Miss Adams voice, manner and
gestures were pleasing and natural,
and he hearers listened with delight
to her recitations. While every one
was, in this writer's humble opinion,
beautifully given, when I Am Mar
ried," Nearer my God to Thee,
Calling the Young 'Uns" and ODE
scription of a Circus" were specially
fine.
A recess was taken when several
songs were sung. Miss Adams was
much more generous than any elocu-
tionists I have ever heard in the num-
Der of her pieces, and old and young,
grave and gay, unanimously pro
nounce the evening very pleasant
and profitable one. We hope Miss
Adams will visit our village again.
The above was written by little
girl eleven years old-a pupil of the
Palmetto Institute-as part OF her
language exercise the day after Miss
Adams recited.

There is Money in Farming.

Farmers claim that there is ''no
money in farming" Compared with
other occupations, it is as certain as
any of them. There is not mer-
chant in this country, or manufac-
turer, who does not meet difficulties
in his business. The farmer makes
more money in proportion to capital
and labor invested than is derived in
many other enterprises. All classes
of business men must rely on the
cost of raw materials and the future
demands of the markets, and it may
be added, that, like the farmer, their
profits or losses depend largely on
the weather also.

4 Living Shadow.

From the Greenville, n. c., R:fector.l
The following interview has just
been given our reporter by Mr.. G. A.
Baker the overseer at the farm of
Col. Isaac A. Sugg, OF Greenville, n.
C. 1t will interest anyone who has
ever had typhoid fever. Mr.. Baker
said in part:
II was living in Beaufort county,
and on the "a day of October, 1898,
I was stricken down with typhoid
fever. I had the best physicians to
attend me and on the 18th day Of
January, 1894, I was allowed to get
up. I was emaciated, weak and lad
no appetite. I could only drag along
for a short distance and would be
compelled to sit down and rest. This
continued for some time and I began
to give up hope of ever getting well.
I lost my position in Beaufort county
and having secured onein Pitt county
clerking in store, I undertook it,
but was so weak I could not do the
work and had to give it up. The
disease settled in my knees, legs and
feet. I was taking first one kind OF
medicine and then another, but moth
ing did me any good. l was mighty
low-spirited. I moved out to Col.
Sugg's about four or five months ago
and commenced taking DR.. Williams
Pills. I took three day for about
three months. I began to regain my
appetite in weeks time, and then
my weakness began to disappear,
and hope sprung up with blessed
ness that is beyond all telling. At
the expiration OF the three months l
was entirely cured and could take my
axe and go in the woods and do as
good days work as any man. l
was troubled with dyspepsia and
that has disappeared. 1t is also a
splendid tonic for weak people. I
say, Mr.. Editor, God bless DIR. vii
liams, may he live for a long time, I
know he will go up yonder to reap
his reward for he has done wonder,
full lot of good. Tell everybody that
asks you about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People that if they will
come to me I can certainly satisfy
them as to their merits. I always
carry box of pills with me and wher
ever I feel bad l take one" We
were forcibly struck with the earnest
ness Of Mr.. Baker and his statement:
may be rehed on.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain al
the elements necessary to give new
life and richness to the blood ant
restore shattered nerves. They arr
an unfailing specific for such dis
eases as locomotor ataxia, partial pa
raiysis, st. Vitus' dance, sciatica
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous head
ache, after effects Of Ia grippe, pal
pitation of the heart, pale and sallov
compilations, all forms of weakness
either in male or female, and all dis
eases resulting from yitiated humor'

70 the Editor Of The Dispatch:

To the Editor Of The Dispatch:
The school companion is what
every little boy and girl who is at
tending school needs. Any one want
ing to make a little child q nice
Christmas present can find nothing
that he will appreciate more than
one of these companions. We often
see little boy sitting in the school
room rubbing his tear stained eyes.
The teacher will ask, "Buddie, what
is the mattel?' He will reply. Il
can't find my pencil" If he would
possess one of these companions he
would have no need of all this worry.
They are very cheap and every child
should possess one. You can do no
better than to call on Mr.. G. NJ. Har-
man at the Bazaar and get one for a
Christmas present.
My little brother went down to the
Bazaar few days ago and he was
so charmed with the beautiful article
that he could not come home with
out one, and when he came home and
revealed the treasure all eyes were
turned towards it. His eyes fairly
sparkled as he looked at it. He
would not have taken double the
money he had paid for it. No, not
even three times the amount. He
values it as one of his greatest pos
sessions. Every ones eyes that fall
upon it cling to it like a magne-
tic needle does to a piece of steel.
1t is so Dicely finished that nothing
more is necessary for its completion.
I think that the inventor must have
been very active in getting up such a
complete companion, and also [ think
Mr.. Harman was very wise in pur-
chasing it in his store as it is thing
very much needed by all. No dan
ger of losing slate or lead pencil,
writing pen and pen staff out Of these
companions. They have little lock
which requires practice to open. The
lid is then held on securely by two
little bright colored hinges which add
much to it's appearance. The inside
is then nicely finished with little
thin pieces of wood to keep things
from getting mixed up. Then the
finishing touch is put on, and what
do you think it is? Well, I will tell
you. It is just simply coat Of
varnish which gives il beautiful
golden color. I tell you it is daisy
with that bright coiored lock and
hipghes.
I have given you description OF
the box but l did not tell you what
was in it. It contains everything
that is necessary in the way Of writ.
ing, namely: a beautiful black lead
pencil, with a rubber in the end,
slate pencil, pen staff and some nice
gold pens. All of this can be pur
chased at the Bazaar for only a small!
sum.
My papa promised me one of these
nice companions as a Christmas
present if I would send a piece tc
the Dispatch; so I hope that Mr.
Harman will help me out by pub
fishing it in his paper so that all may
see and know the value of this arti

New County Mana.
It Will be Some Time Yet Before ii
Can Be Appeased.

Can DE- appeaseu.
Columbia Register 10th.
The new county mania which as
sumed such an acute phase during
the sitting of the convention has not
abated, but if anything has gotten
worse. Every day almost the Gov
ernor or the Attorney General re-
ceives a basket load of letters or q
delegation or two in reference to
some new county scheme. 1t will be
sad news to all these people to learn
that they can't get new counties yet
nor even when the Legislature meets
in January. Governor Evans stated
yesterday that he had received nu-
merous letters, petitions and applica-
tions for elections on the formation
of some new county. He wishes to
inform all through The Register that
he was not going to do anything
about it until the new constitution
went into effect and until the new
registration was held under that consti
tuition. This will preclude any action
by the Legislature, which must pro-
vide for the new registration.
Governor Evans will in day or
two issue a circular letter on this
subject stating the above facts. In
the mean time the new county people
will have to possess their souls in
patience.
