An Appeal in Behalf Of the Militia.

"Breathes there man with soul 80 dead
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land"
Well may the youth of our day and
time, the youth who shall eventually hold
in trust the well-being of our country,
read the foregoing lines and reflect upon
their meaning. How many times, young
man, have you thought seriously OF the
meaning with which these words are 50
pregnant?
Learned men tell US that there will be
a great crisis in the near future; how
shall we be prepared to receive this
With folded arms and dropping head, and
shall we stand idly by and suffer oul
homes to be overrun by brutes, as they
were in the seventies If this is not tC
be, then let US awake to-day and prepare
ourselves for the inevitable!
How many true Southern lads are there
who can listen to the stories OF prlVatlon
shame, brutal treatment and unbearabie
outrages that came with the negro rule
directly after the civil war, without boil
ing blood and desire to ayenge these
wrongs, especially when told by one
whose actual experiences they were. Lei
me say right here that there is one way
to be prepared for what must surely
come, and that is organization and unity
of purpose. The efficiency of we'll
organized and disciplined few has beer
demonstrated time after time in section:
where there is more thought and at
tention given to such matters, especially
throughout the Northern States. Go bach
if YOU will to all the strikes and labor up
risings in the coal districts of Pennsyl
vania and see how rapidly they were pu
down by the militia, simply because they
were organized and disciplined.
Sad it is indeed to see what little weigh
the militia of our State carries in th'
minds of the majority of its citizens, ane
more deplorable still is the fact that mem
bers of this body seem to ignore thel
oath to faithfully serve the State o
South Carolina and the United State
against all their enemies"
In conclusion, allow me to say tina
whatever may be the present condition o
affairs, let each and every one of US strlv
to remember that we have charge tt
keep and strive to make the militia o
South Carolina really "the right arm o
the law" W. y. PATRICK.

BUDS and FLOWERS OF
HOME LIFE.
Painss Celery Compound Makes and Keeps
the Children Well and Strong.
Mothers Make It the Home Medicine
For The Little Ones.

The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers of our homes. Without their
prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would
be desolate. They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and youth, if we expect
them to npen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times of i'll health and suffering.
We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and tw1tch.
ings of limbs and muscles. They complain OF
headache, drowsiness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsia,
and indigestion. All such symptoms and all
ments mean that the seeds of disease will have
fast and firm hold, unless proper measures
are taken to restore perfect condition OF
health.
Thousands of wise and prudent parents have
made their children happy, healthy, and vigor'
Gus by giving them natures medicine, Paine S
Celery Compound. In many severe and COM
plicated cases, Paine's Celery Compound has
restored health when the little ones were given
up by physicians.
If your dear ones are not as hearty, strong,
and rugged as they should be, try the health
giving virtues of Paine's Celery Compound.
It makes and keeps the children well.

Orangeburg vs.. Balaberg.

Though it rained most of the day there
was a large and enthusiastic crowd to
witness the game of ball played here he
tween the local team and that of Orange
burg on Thursday last. A more exciting
game has not been seen here for many
moons. The visitors had much the best
show, inasmuch as they were IN much
better practice than the home team, haV-
ing, it is understood, won several games
this season.
Things began to look blue for the locals
when in the first inning the visitors
pushed three men across the rubber, but
in the opening of the second the home
team caught the spirit and also sent three
men across the plate, thus tieing the score.
Bamberg scored another in the third, the
visitors failing in this. Neither side
scored in the fourth, while the Orange
burgers piled up three runs in the fifth,
making the score stand six to four. After
this the visitors failed to cross the coveted
spot, but the home team chalked up three
more runs in the sixth and still another
in the ninth, thus winning for Bamoerg
one of the most hotly contested games
that has been played here in several
seasons.
The features of the game were: for
Bamberg, F. Dukes two running catches
and n. Bamberg's work at second; Brao-
ham C. did his usual good work behind
the bat. For Orangeburg, Jeffords's bat
ting, Sorentrue's good steady pitching,
and Glaze's pretty work at first bag.
There was one most pleant feature that
is well worth noting, that is the absence
of kicking. The Orangeburg team is
composed of gentlemanly young fellows,
and made good impression here.
The following is the lineup and batting
