We cannot understand why the law a.
gainst all peddlerS is not enforced in this
county. There is a law on the Statute
books requiring license for pedling and
the parties who 60 frCm house to house
with a small lot of merchandise are requir-
ed to take out the license, but parties with
droves of horses and mules are permitted
to 60 from point to point and no license is
required of them 1t is not just to thus
discriminate. We call attention of the
county officers to sections 1872 3 and
of the general statutes.
Garden seed, all varieties at r. B.
Loryea's
While in Sumter last Friday. We were
very much sratifed 70 hear several mer.
chants speaking highly the quality of
goods that is being manufactured by the
Manning hosiery mill and they propose 10
patronize this industry. Mr.. Harvin de-
serves great credit for his undertaking and
he also deserves the congratulations of his
fellow-citizans for erecting in our midst o
ronument to his public spirit. This en-
terprise is a permanent fixture and the ex-
ample set by Mr.. W. Scott Harvin should
be an incentive to others to go ahead and
start otl er bread winning industries.
If YOU would have fine garden buy your
seed and onion sets at r. 8. Loryea's.
We were shown yesterday, some pencil
drawings Of Governor W. II. Ellerbe and
Ex-Governor John Gary Evans, and when
it is considered that the work was done by
little girl, there need be no hesitency in
saving the work is fine. This young artist
is katurah Gamble, eleven year old
daughter of Deputy Sheriff E. B. Gamble,
and we hope the child will continue prac-
ticing what appears to be natural gift
with her, and that some day her name will
be linked with the artists Of fame. The
two pictures can be seen in the sherif's
office. katurah's parents certainly have
reason to feel proud Of the child's attain
mentS.

IF you want to know who is doing good
Il ~ he
Whenever you see merchant constantly
before the people in his county paper, you
nav put that man down as q hustler He
knows the value Of advertising and every
time you read him be disproyes that worn
out yarn, 1--WE give our patrons the benefit
of our advertisements by selling goods
cheaper" It IS an established fact, the
merchant who advertises libera!ly usually
forces those who do not advertise to either
follow where they lead or depend entirely
upon selling goods at lien prices. The
advertiser is the one who hunts bargains
fed with small profits.
RHEUMATISM FOR YEARS.
Spartanburg, S. G. Dec. 2, 1896 I have
taken number of bottles of Hoods Sar-
saparilla for rheumatism with which have

remedies without benefit, but have found
Hoods Sarsaparilla has done me more

AIr. .. E. Stubbs, Sumter:s well known
cotton buyer, has made an engagement to
travel for the Carolina Grocery Company,
of Charleston. He will. call on our mer.
chants shortly and we hope he Will book
many orders for his deservedly popular
house Mr.. Stubbs needs no Introduction
to the merchants of this county, as he has
been doing an extensive business with
them oryears and his transactions have
always been pleasant and satisfactory. The
Carolina Grocery Companyis is composed of
former citizens OF Clarendon, and when it
is known that Captain Thomas Wilson is
the president, it is a sufficient guarantee
that business principles guide the concern.
Whenever any Of our Clarendon people 60
to Charleston there is no place in the city
where they will be more welcomed than at
the Carolina Grocery Company's store on
East Bay.
