lis, Ind, was at deaths door with quick
consumption. Wasted 10 a skeleton.

Death was hourly awaited by his doctor
and family. He was kept in a constant!
stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave linn a
bottle c. Brazilian Balm. Seeing itl
wonderful effect, the doctor advised its
continued use. Mr.. James soon after
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and i'll February he
returned TO work. His lungs are sounds
and his weight greater than at any time
in his life. His recovery is regarded as
almost n miracle.

crs are fortunate Indeed who have
been able to pay the debts incurred
by them in making the last cotton
crop, the vast majority Of them hav-
ing unpaid accounts against them,
either for guano or other supplies.
Has the average farmer supply Of
corn and roughness with which to feed
his stock to make another crop? Has
he plenty Of homo raised flour, meat
and syrup with which to feod him
self and all tho hands on his farm
for the next eight or ton months ?
Has he good garden from which ho
can gather plenty o. vegetables to
add to his home raised cdlblesP TO
all those questions | must answer no,
and yet all these are within reach OF
every land owner who will throw of
the folly of all cotton raising Shall
we continue to raise and soil cotton
below the cost OF production? [ soc
no hope for us unless wo adopt
something like tho above suggestion
and then stick to them regardless OF

Up to the pre- sent time there has

ed, there is Il likelihood that things
would be different in Il good many
matters.
There has hccn some talk among
the members Of liquor legislation,

agreed upon. There has been some
talk of Il bill to exempt certain large
cities from the operations of the dis

Fentherstonc, Of Laurens, was in the
city this morning, having arrived
here yesterday. He came on bust
ness, having no connection with poll
tics or the dispcnsary law.
Mr.. Feathrrstone said that he could
not talk about politics, and did not
care to have anything to say abont
the present issnes. In personal
way he did express himself, and per
haps he does not know that publicity
is to be given his views us to what
he thinks the best les sislatlvo policy
at tbs jnnctnro.
In his opinion tho best thing, tho
safest course, for the opponents of
the Observation-Disclosures, local
option men aud alto do is to unite
aud repeal the dispensary law. When
the dispensary law is repealed then
tho Prohibitionists and the local op-
tion mon can como together and he
is satisfied they will come together
and agree upon something satisfac'
tory to both sides. The local option
and Prohibition votes are in the ma
jority in both houses, and he is salts
fed if they will only como together
in some such way that both Will get
pretty much what they want

you to prepare tho land we'll before

perhaps dropping in to soc tho dis,

Never go to town with an empty
wagon. Either take load of hay,
pea vines, shucks, or a load Of wood;
something to pay for your sugar and
coffee. Buy nothing on credit if You
can possibly pay for it. If we want
to be iudependnnt and prosperous

them.

Pocket Picking In London.

Pocket picking is ian occupa-
, ton that admits Of vast display
of ingenuity. While disclaiming
any particular merit for that
country, says a London paper, it
is an undisputable fact that
again England is in the van OF
all nations in that her pickpock-
cts hold their own against all for
seign competition. In London
alone over 100000 men, women
iand children gain their daily
bread entirely by this unscrupu-
lous mode of living.

New Decorative Fads.

One of the fads of the day is
to collect the shields bearing the
arms of all American colleges
and institutions of learning, and
arranged in a straight row just
beneath the molding of the room
the effect is highly decorative.
Another pretty fancy is to have
two shields bearing Americas
and Great Britain's coats of arms
placed side by side above a door,
and as the national design has
been very artistically treated on
an ivory white ground, it makes
a handsome companion piece to
England's rampant unicorn and
lion, and ''E pluribus unum' and
"Dien ct mon droit" show up well
when thus brought together. This
idea, which is original here, seems
to please English visitors, for
several pairs of these shields
have already been taken across
to London as souvenirs of Boston
and a clever yankee nation.
