In some of the Swiss valleys the
inhabitants are all afflicted with gOitre
or "thick neck. Instead of regard
ing this as a deformity they seem to
think it natural feature of physical
development, and tourists passing
through the valley are sometimes
jeered by the goitrous inhabitants,
because they are without this often
sive swelling. Thus form of disease
may become common that it is regard
ed as a natural and necessary condi-
ton of life. 1t is so, to large extent,
with what are called diseases of wo-
men. Every woman suffers more or
less from irregularity, liberation, de-
bilitating drains or female weakness,
and this suffering is so common and so
universal that many women accept it
as condition natural and neces gary
to their sex. But it a condition as un-
natural as it is unnecessary. The use

WITH DEATH
AT HIS HEELS
Thrilling Ride Ct a Farmer Eoy
to Warp People Of an
Advancing Food.

In the gray of September morning.
1874, Collins Graves, Il New England
farmers boy, started, with a gun on
his shoulder, for a woodcock thicket.
He passed by the dam which held in
check the waters of the reservoir be-
longing to a manufacturing concern.
He saw that the water was beginning
to trickle over the top of the earth
work and that the water was rising
so rapidly that the ordinary sideways
did not carry it away as they should.
NJ s- IT'edasoI9d exactly as did the hero
of Reades tale. He. knew that the
dam must go and he knew also some
thing Of The llQrrQg which wopld. f9l-

people near at hand, and then mount

LINE AMONG WOMEN.
Fool. Editors Want Southern Women TO
Lay Aside Their Convictions.

A great deal of attention is given by
the northern press nowadays to the
persistence with which southern wom-
en- refuse to Law aside their convictions
on the color line.
This subject has been widely com
mented upon by the press in regard to
the refusal of southern women's clubs
in the north to affiliate with cOlOred
women 5 clubs, and now comes story
from Paris to the effect that several
southern girls refuse to sing in con-
cert where one of the invited singers
was a mulatto.
1t is useless for the northern press
70 discuss the question. 1t is settled
now and forever. 1t is one of those
things that time does not blot out.
Secession died at APPROXIMATION, but Sc
cal equality did not begin there.
And then, there is another thing
these northern papers might take into
consideration. Social equality will
never be tolerated by the whites, nor
is it desired by the best element of the
colored race. Each race knows its
place in this section of the country
from social standpoint and has 10
desire TO quit it.-Athens Banner

stride o. his steed. Behind him the
valley was roaring torrent. while on
the hills on either side, looking down
on the destruction of their homes, were
those whom be had saved. Others, all
unconscious, were ahead. and the race
went on.
And this is the cry he flung to the wind:
'To the hills for your lives! Tie food is behind"
The last warning was given. The
valley widened, and opening beyond
were farreaching meadows unpeopled.
There the pent up waters would dis
perse and lose their crushing force.
Graves turned his horse aside and rode
up the hillside to safety. while the food
tore behind. He had saved a thousand
lives, so the people said. but when they
came to him to thank him Collins

LIGHTNING STATISTICS.
Five Hundred People Are Killed
Annually In United States.

About 800 people are killed by light

Twice that many are more or less Sc.

from lightning has increased consid-

greatest number of fatalities usually
occurs in the open. Some 10 per cent
of all such deaths occur out of doors.
Thirty-four per cent occur in private
houses. Eleven per cent of all the
deaths occurred under trees and nine
per cent in barns.
According to these statistics one OF

Miss Cora Quattlebaum.

On Thursday, July 18th, a very
sad affliction came to one of Edge
fields families, in the death of
Miss Cora Quattlebaum, the Sec
ond daughter and third child of
Mr., and Mrs. Paul Quattlebaum,
of South Edgefeld.
Miss Cora had been a student
of the South Carolina Co-educa-
tional Institute the past session,
and was not quite eighteen years
of age. She was ar amiable and
attractive young lady of pleasant
and polished manners.
Her remains were carried to
Fruit Hill, the old home of Mrs.
Quattlebaum, her mother, who was
Miss Sophie Whittle, of Edgefeld
county. She was near cousin of
Messrs. Barnwell and Milton Jones
and Mrs. B. B. Jones, of our town.
Miss Cora was not without kind
relatives and friends to be with
hef to the last, and many were the
kind hearts in Edgefeld that beat
with tender sympathy for this be-
reaved family.
