How To Prevent Group.

1t will be good news to the mothers
of small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign Of
Group is hoarsness. A day or two
before the attact the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by a
peculiar rough chugh. Give Cham
lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon
as the child becomes hoarse, or even
after the rough cough appears, and
it will dispel all symptoms of Group.
In this way all danger and anxiety
may be avoided. This remeday is
used by many thousands of mothers
and Las never been known to fail.
1t is, ID fact, the only remedy that
can can always be depended upon
and that ir pleasant and fate to take.

W. P. Hawkins & Co., have just re-
ceived fine lot of horses and mules.
1t is u-perfect nonsense for the peo-
pie OF this county to 60 to Sumter or
anywhere else to buy horses and mules,
when they can have such a fine oppor-
tunity to select in their own county
seat town.
Messrs. Fin Coffey and Joe Rigby
left last week for the stock market and
they purchased very fine lot Of mules,
which will arrive tomorrow. These
young stock dealers have already made
themselves felt on this market, and
with the coming lot of mules they pro
pose to do business as business should
be done.
In an editorial last week, regarding
the recommendation of the grand jury,
relating to re-indeXing the records OF
the clerk of court office we should
have ST ed that not all of the members
of the bar favor the proposition; there
are some members of the bar that agree
with US, that there is no absolute nee
essitv for the re-indeXing of the records.
The business men of this town should
not lose sight of the fact there is a tine
opportunity open to them to induce two
railroads traversing important sections
of this county, to come to Manning. 1t
will not do to wait to see what somebody
also will do, the idea is to take the IL
iatiye and make some movement look
ing to this end. We think the lntendant
should call a meeting of the business
men to discuss this matter.

started through the space and was
struck by the truck. His right arm

wound will not prove serious. When

Again have we the pleasure OF chron-
icling a marriage ceremony, which:
| like all ceremonies attending the tie
ing of the nuptial knot, pretty: The
bride beautiful, and the groom hand
some, the attending maids pretty as
pinks, and the young men, jolly good
fellows. On last Wednesday evening
at 6, O'Clock the Presbyterian church
in this town was filed to its utmost
seating capacity to witness the mar
riage of MIR. William Ashley Avant, a
young, handsome, anu popular business
man of Summerton, and Miss Annie
Scott Harvin, beautiful accomplished
belle of Manning. The church was
tastily decorated, the chandeliers a
mass of chrysanthenums, the Gordon,
cutting off space for the relatives was
large rope Of. chrysanthemums; the
organ was on the rostrum, and 1t de-
corated with green. The ushers were

were, Misses Julia Sprott, Daisy Fol!in,
Ada Mayes, Ada Bagnal, Lizzie Wells,
Mayme Harvin, Messrs Charlie Rugby,
Robert Chandler, George Tindal, Ed
die Horton, Isaac Applet, and Alex
Harvin.
The maid OF honor was. Miss Maud
Brock, sister of the bride, and Mr..
Ashby Richbourg was the best man.
The couples marched up the isles op-
posite each other crossing within the
chancel and then taking their respec-
tive positions with the bride and groom
in the center, the maid OF honor and
the best man on either side OF them.
Rev. F. W. Gregg the pastor, IN con-
ducting the service, made 1t more I'M
pressive with a discourse on the mar
riage relation, and at the end OF the
ceremony the best man handed the
minister a ring who in turn gave 1t to
the maid of honor, who placed it upon
the finger of the bride. Miss Ida
Scarborough presided at the organ,
and played, the famous Mendelsohns
wedding march. The service was
solemn and impressive, and as the
couples marched up the isles keeping
time to the slowly played march, It
gave them an opportunity to display
grace and dignity. The bride and her
maids were dressed in street costumes,
and as soon as the service was over,
the party went Immediately to the de-
pot to see the bridal couple of. 1t was
the intention to take tour to Florida,
but Mr.. Avant finding that he could
not spare the time from mis- business,
decided to only go as far as Charleston,
and return home. The writer gives
his best wishes to the young couple
who have just launched out upon the
matrimonial sea, and hope that their
lives will always be one continued
honey moon. Here is luck to you
Annie and Ashley, may you live long
and prosper.

Our School.

Every citizen who feels>ap interest
in the welfare of the children OF this
school district must regret the strained
conditions existing in our school.
Harmony is necessary to the well con-
duct of any institution of learning, and
if the conditions are such that harmony
will not prevail, the trustees should
take positive stand, even if in doing
so, they will have to close the doors,
and order general reorganization.
There is no time for saving the feelings
of individuals, the children's welfare is
paramount: if the trustees cannot take
a positive stand, then, they should ac-
knowledge their weakness and resign.
The children have been getting along
nicely in every department, and now
when every thing seemed so bright, to
have something to obstruct tne prog
ress is a great pity, and it begins to
look as if the school has bad fate
hanging over it. We do not know all
the facts. that is, we have not had both
sides of the present trouble, nor have
we made any endeavor to get at the
inside trouble, because, we did not care
to get in a position where it would be
necessary to make a public statement,
but it is known that there was trouble,
the trustees were called upon to lnves-
tigate, we were told they divided. two
sustaining, and one condemning, and
since then one of the teachers has re-
sined. and some children remain away
from the school, thus dividing the school
into factions, and divided house must
fall. We hope the trustees will take hold
ofthis matter, and handle it with just
and firm judgement. It is hardly
probable they will please everybody
nor should they try to do so, but II
they do their duty without fear or
favor, they will have done well. We
want the school, we need the school,
the institution is in our opinion, as much
or more necessary than the churches and
if theteachers are not suited, let them go
and get others, the teachers may go,
but the school never, and very much
depends upon the management OF this
very deplorable incident. whether or
not the special school district continues.
We want it known that we want the
special district, but we have knowledge
of the feelings of goodly number who
only want an excuse to vote the special
tax out of existance. Therefore it is
absolutely necessary for the trustees to
act with wisdom in the present matter;
they snoGld not let anything but duty
influence them to favor or to prejudice
their action.
Since the above was put in type, we
are informed by member of the board
of trustees, that the school will con-
+inre and that al of the grades Will
have teachers.

A Timely Suggestion.

This lie the season Of the year when
the prudent and careful housewife
replenishes her supply of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t is certain
to be needed before the winter is
over, and results are much more
prompt and satisfactory when it is
kept at hand and given as soon as
the cold is contracted and before it
has become settled in the system. In
almost every instance severe cold
NAV be warded off by taking this
remedy freely as soon as the first in
dication of the cold appears. There
is no danger in giving it to children
for it contains no harmful substance.
1t Is pleasant to take-both adults
and children like it. Buy it and you
will get the best. 1t always cures.

Hustle Children Hustle.

The gold medal, known as the ZAP
pelt Medal" to be contested for by the
children of the Paxville Academy, is
now on exhibition at the store Of ". E..
Jenkinson. The medal is OF solid gold
triangle in shape, with photograph
of the donor in the center, and inscrib-
ed on the triangle are the words
'sPunctuality, Perseverance Prog

a wreath of laurels. and is a pendant
from bar containing the words "Ap-

The object is to stimulate the chill
drep, small and large, with their stud
les, and give them something to look
forward for. It will be remembered
last summer the editor OF this paper
was one of the State exposition COM
missioners, and naturally he felt an in
terest in the success OF the institution.
He made several efforts to induce the
school trustees to come together to de-
wise a plan by which the children Of
our county could take advantage Of
the great educational opportunity:
only three of the schools responded,
PaXville, Pamela, and Pine Grove, a
spirit of antagonism sprung up ami re-
suited in the children being deprived
of something OF value, to crafty an un-
worthy spirit. Paxville responded en-
Enthusiastically 10 strong, and the
memory of that trip will ever linge" in
the minds of those children. Tie
writer made up his mind that a com
munity exhibiting such confidence N
him as to confide their children to his
keeping, deserved something to sCimu-
late those children to delve down
deep into their books whereby hey
will, in after life appreciate what they
saw at the exposition. The medal was
designed by the writer and it is to be
the property OF the school to be con-
tested for annually. The presentation
will take place on some occasion in the
near future, the time to be fixed by the
teachers and the trustees. Those de-
string to look at the medal Will find 1t
