I was first advi-ed by our
family physician in Charleston TO
use TEETL1NA with our baby when
she wes but very young infant,
as o preventive of collie and to
warm AMI to swceten The stomach.
Later it was useful in teething
troubles, and it's effect has been
found to be so very beneficial AID
SO free from the dangers that are
consequent upon the use of drugs
and soothing syrups that we have
come to regard it, afteruse with
three children, as one of the ne
cessities when there is new baby
in the house and until the teething
troubles are, and we take pleasure
in recommending it to our frienda
instead of the horrid stuff that SO
many people use to keep their
babies quiet.

an exponent of this idea, and she
was much complimented.
A piano quartette was one Of
the pleasing features of the pro.
gramme. The ekilled performers
were Miss Zaua Zimmerman
Mrs. F. N. K. Bailey, Miss Quat-
tlebaum and Miss Julia Haiti
wanger.
A piano solo, by Miss Lila
Quattlebaum was followed with a
piano forte selection, by Col. Jas.
T. Bacon.
A very thrilling and inspiring
cantata of Fairies and witches
was the last number, but the peo-
pie of Edgefield are still in the
thralldom of their chorus.
Mr.. Gordon Quattlebaum, as
Uringle, the brother of Florinda,
among other good things, sang
solo of surprising sweetness and
pathos.
Miss Myra Buffers solo in the
cantata was also noticeably pleas
ing.
Miss Stella Atkinson afforded
much amusement by her witch
like manners. It would not have
done to have had this cantata in
the oldsn times of New England
witcbcraft, for they were all so
apparently adept in the art that
ere this they would have all been
floating down some stream with
rocks to their necks.
Among the enjoyn.ents of the
evening this play had its origin as
one of the fairy tales of old Ger
man lore, Miss Allie Toole was
Queen of the Fairies, and a very
and graceful one with her
locks and stately bearing.
Miss Eloise Anderson, as Queen
Of the Witches, was a very grue-
some spectacle, yet, with all her
at villainy, she only "did
ugly", but didn't look ugly. The
Fairies were expected to be beau
;iful, and were SO, but the witches
not only bewitched Florinda, the
beautiful little maiden, Myra But
er, but they bewitched the audi
,nce. The only difference between
me two was that Miss Myra es-
capped from their spell.

and to the home Of her nativity.
Miss Mary Ann Fuller read the
Glass History and also received
the gold medal for the first honor
graduate. This medal was pre-
sented by Capt. Epps, the teacher
of science and history in the Insti-
tute for the following year.
W. A. Byrd, the future lawyer of
his class, delivered the Valedic-
tory.
Henry S. Hartzog, president of
Clemson College, delivered the ad-
dress to the graduates. This was
masterpiece of thought and of
e]oquence. He spoke forty-fve
minutes, so said the watches, but it
did not seem 30. It could not have
been so. He must have electrified
the hands 30 that they forgot that
accuracy of time is always expect
ed of them.
The audience gave him much
applause, especially when he did
honor to Edgefeld's educational
chief. Among other things, be
spoke of President Bailey as "a
steam engine in trousers" and a
bundle of concentration, contem-
plation and conservation" No
more fitting eulogium could be
passed upon him than these ex-
pressions with their full meaning
apprehended.
A vocal solo by Miss Allie Toole,
preceded the announcements for
the coming session.
The band sent forth the farewell
message and the people seemed to
linger as if they wished that "time
had leaden feet" 30 that their
good-byes might not 80 soon be
said. But it is sad experience of
human kind that "all pleasures
earthly end in pain"

About the Post Off ce.
Editor of the Edg.held Advertiser:

Editor of the Edgsfeld Advertiser:
AsI am not a subscriber to the
Edgefeld Chronicle it was only by
chance I saw the piece in said pa
per, issue of May 30th, headed,
a Not pleased with new office" AS
the article seems to throw some in-
sinuations at me, I deem it my
duty to reply to it in order to vim
dicate myself.
To my many friends and my
friend, Mr.. S. E. Morgan, in parti-
cular, I desire to say never knew
a post office to be established for
the benefit of a post master and
their convenience, as I see it word
ed in said article. l have always
been under the impression that a
pest office was for the public.
The petition was drawn asking
that a route be opened from Cleora
by my house, thence to Longmires,
and Mr.. A. Gilchrist wrote and
enclosed letter to Hon. Jasper
Talbert and enclosed with said
petition asking him to present it
before Congress and to use his in
fiuence in getting said route estab-
lished. The reply from Hon. JAS
per Talbert and the fourth Assist
ant Postmaster General Burton
was that they had granted us the
Office at Pleona and we would be
supplied with smail from Long
mires. Why they failed TO give
us the full route we asked for | am
unable to to say. 1t was disap-
pointment to me and to all l have
heard speak of it in not giving us
the full route. A diagram was
drawn of said route. commencing
at Edgefeld court house, and was
Eenclosed with said petition. The
office Pleona does not conflict with
! Self post office. and is supplying
mail to q good many and improv-
ling nearly every mail, and | am
truly sorry they failedlto grant the
full route, and am very much in
hopes the full route will soon be
1opened, as it would be of great
convenience to those along the
line,

skill il technique and tenderness
of expression which is after his
own peculiar fashion.
Miss Mary Fogle, a graduate of
the class of 1894, one of the most
intelligent and successful alumnae
of the S. G. G. l., was the essayist
for the occasion.
DR.. w. w. Smith, of Baltimore,
an alumnus of the Institution,
had been invited to deliver the ad-
dress before the graduates. At
the last, Prof. Bailey received a
letter from him stating that be
would find it impossible to be
preeent. Prof. Entzminger was
chosen to take his place, and the
people in Edgefield who did not
know DR.. Smith, but knew Prof.
Entzminger, were not sorry that
he did not come. Of the many
good talks and addresses which
Prof. Entzminger has made in
Edgefeld, this was the best, and
contained gems of thought e1-
pressed with eloquence and accom-
panied with his never-falling
magnetism.
A medal for the most punctual
attendance on all the duties of the
school term, was presented to Miss
Annie Wolfe.
A medal for department. was Of

 The Baku fields lying north of the Caspian sea are the principal oil producers of Russia. These fields are owned by the government, and are leased to individuals and corpor- ations by a tax on their productions. Plots of land are put up at public auction, the successful bidder guar anteeing to operate the fields he se- cures and pay to the government a stated tax upon the oil secured.
 The Baku fields are being developed velopment will follow increased transportation facilities, which at present are not able to handle the production This lack of transpor- tation increases freight rates to a certain extent and so tends to keep the price of Russian oil at higher point than it would otherwise be. Another element which helps to maintain higher prices is the increas- ing royalties paid the government by the operators. The statistics show that more wells were completed last year than in the preceding year, and the results were fairly satisfactory, as the initial production of the.
