authorship Disputed.)

If should die tonight,
My friends would look upon my quiet face
Before they laid it in its resting place,
And deem that death had lefF it almost
fair;
And laying snow-white flowers against
my hair
Would soothe it down with fearful tender
ness,
And fold my hands with lingering caress,
Poor hands, so empty and so cold tonight.
If should die tonight,
My friends would call to mind, with low
ing thought,
Some kindly deed the icy hands had
wrought;
Some gentle word the frozen lips had said,
Errands on which the willing feet had
sped.
The memory Of my sclfshness and pride,
My hasty words would all be put aside,
And so should be loved and mourned to-
night.

II ! should die tonight,
Even hearts estrapged would turn once
more to me,
Recalling other days remorsefuny;
The eyes that chilled me with averted
glance
Would look upon me as OF yore, perchancc,
And soften, in the old familiar way;
For who could war with dumb, unconscious
clayy
So I might rest, forgiven OF all, tonight.
Oh friends, pray tonight
Keep not your kisses for my dead, cold
brow
The way is lonely, let me feel them now.
Think gently Of me; / am travel worn;
Ny faltering feet arc pierced with many a
thorn.
Forgive, oh hearts estranged, forgive, ]
plead.
When dreamless rest is mine l shall not
need
The tenderness for which long tonight.

To the People of Newberry County:
We are trying to get complete roll of

this enrolment by townships. I have

every citizen to appoint himself a COM
mittee of one to assist the township
committees and see that no soldier,
sailor, member of the Reserves, boy
company or Citadel cadet who entered
the service is left out of the roll
To the township committees l would
say, please go to the Clerk of Court S
office and get the enrolment looks and
let's try to complete the work by the
first day of January, 1903. would
ask the committee also to ask each
member Of the James D. Nance Camp

BrRtn-FoOa NuGsense,

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori-
ties. They have dispelled the silly no.
tion that one kind Of food is needed for
brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish a particular part Of
the body, but it will sustain every other
part, Yet, however good your food
may be-, its nutriment is destroyed by
Indigestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower, the
favorite medicine of the healthy mil
lions. A few doses aids digestion,
stimulates the liver to healthy action,
purifies the blood, and makes YOU feel
buoyant and vigorous. You can get
this reliable remedy at w. e. Pelham

Musicians with leading American
bands must be not alone proficient in
playing instruments they must be
thoroughly schooled musicians, able, on
a pinch, to write two-step march or
score a symphony Having passed
muster as competent artists, their
unions fix a price, below which they
cannot play. This is approximately
$500 to $500 a day, varying in differ
ent places, but as the amount of good
material is scarcely adequate to the de-
mand, the union rule is scarcely needed
to protect them. Those of marked
ability, practically fix their own rate
OF wages. instrumental soloists with
such band as Innes', are paid high as
$3.50 week.
lnnes and his Band are among the
attractions booked to appear here.

ANOTHER La N DMARK GONE
In" Old he'hndlst Church Has Fulfilled
l's Missi"n and IL IL Thlng Of tho pnst

The remarkable material progress OF
Newberry during the past decade should
be source of just pride and pleasure
to each and every one of her citizens.
Growth has not been rapid, but it has
been steady and ;~re.
But it is with pleasure not unmixetl
with something of sadness that our
Oldest inhabitants view the passing of
the old and the incoming of the new.
The old landmarks in succession arc
passing away. The Ncwberry of form
er days is gradually fading from view,
and new city, with broaded horizon,
and new and modem ideas, is taking
her position in the vanguard of prog
ress.
The old Central Methodist church has
now disappeared. Erected in 1888, for
moro than three-quarters of century
it had been the scene of the labors and
difficulties, the struggles and the tri-
umphs, of the .Methodists in Newberry.
Around it clustered their most sacred
memories, in it were centred then
dearest hopes. But it had fulfilled it's
mission and gave way at the command
of the stern law of change.
A new and beautiful and modern
structure, the pride of Newberry and
of Methodism in South Carolina, has
taken its place. The image of the old
is enshrned in the memories of those
who worshipped within it's walls; the
new bears witness to their labors
crowned with success.

Imagine that all fours are alike.
There is difference; a big difference.
So much depends upon having pure,
white and nutritious flour that the sub
ject is worthy your careful investiga-
tion and consideration.
You will be better satisfied in select
ing "Clifton' flour, a fact that any
one who knows anything about houl
will tell you. In purity, whiteness and
quality, "Clifton' flour cxcells all other
-four.
Don't imagine that because "Clifton'
is high grade flour that the price is
high, because the price is low; in reach
of all housekeepers. Cheap flour is
dear at any price, while "Clifton' is
the least expensive and is the very best
you cas- buy.

will be issued. This the management
hopes to accomplish in short time.

lists will be with us in their annual con-
ference. Newberry will give them a
right royal welcome. 1t has been
nearly quarter of a century since we
had the conference with us, and during
that time there have been many changes
in our conference and in the citizenship
of Newberry. 1t has been almost a
generation. The sessions were held in
the Baptist church, that being the larg-
est auditorium at that time in the city.
Now the old Methodist church has been
supplanted by new modern brick
structure, and the old wooden building
has been torn down. We shall be glad
to see our Methodist brethren and make
them feel at home among us.
