MORPHINE.
Can Morphine and Other
Drug Habits Be Cured?

1t has been long contended by
physicians that there is no cure for
the drug habit, This is true so
far as the rank and file of the med
ical profession is concerned, The
reason, therefore, is that they are
ignorant of the full scope and ma
ture of the disease; but fortunately
for tho cause of suffering human
ity we have demonstrated that
the morphine or other drug habits
can be cured apd guarantee an alb
solute, permanent and painless
elre to those addicted to the use OF
drugs if they will take our treat
ment and follow our instructions.
Each case submitted to us
receives individual attention and
treatment from an experienced
nerve specialist. We do not de-
tain you from business. We
give immediate relief. Appetite
| for food is restored. Write today
for our free booklet ard free trial
treatment. All correspond:
ence strictly confidential in plain
envelopes. Address Manhattan

Good Order Prevails.

Some towns are complaining of The
sidewalks being by di sOrderly crowds
on Saturday afternoons. BE it sa' d to
the credit our city fathers and eftic-
lent marshals that no such complaint
can be made in Edgetield. The
crowds who gather IN our streets
Saturday afternoons are good humor-
ed and deport themselves well. Not
withstanding the fact that the colored
people congregate in some places the
sidewalks sare kept open for pedes-
trians.. 1t is as safe for the ladies of
our town to shop Saturday afternoon
as any other afternoon during the
week. The cursing and disorder that
are complained of in some places does
not exist in Edgetield. The only i'm
provement that can be made is to COM
pei certain loafing negro women who
can be seen upon the street till a late
hour on Saturday nights to retire to
retire to their homes. After necessa-
ry purchases are made they have no
business on the streets.

Cotton Platform Erected.

a cummodlous platform has been
erected near the railroad track oppo-
site the Grim property. This is Tor
cotton and other heavy freight. The
building of the platform at this par
ticular place is the first tangible evil
dence that our people have had point
ing to the erection OF new depo;;
near the street. Supt. Welles stated
on his visit to Edgefield soon after the
depot was. burned that instead of
handling cotton from the depot it
could be loaded upon the cars from a
platform to be erected at the place
where the new one has just been built.
Everybody is eagerly awaiting the
intelligence that material is arriving
and work has begun on the depot.
al. hearts have been made sick
through>deferred hope. The suspense
is almost as great rs that experienced
while the .school bond matter was
pending.

Shade Trees Needed.

To some it may seen untimely to ag-
itate the shade tree question, for none
can be transplanted during summer.
Now is the time, however, to agitate
the subject while we can see and feel
the need of more trees. In the dead
of " inter we are not concerned ab0nt
shutting out the suns rays. We rath-
er bask in the sun then instead of
seeking the shade, forgetting that
sweltering summer Will soon come. 1t
is said that the number of trees that
adorn the streets of town and the
condition that they are kept in is an
index to the enterprise and progress
iveness of town. If that be true an
observant stranger going throughout
the length and breadth of ou, town
would put US down as people lacking
in the progressive, twentieth century
spirt. This not alone applies to
towns. There are many farmers
homes that are unprotected from the
suns torrid heat, while within a
stones throw are beautiful young
trees that could be easily transplanted.
Make home more comfortable and
more beautiful by supplying abnnd-
ant shade. 1t would cost no money
and but little labor.
Edgefield advertiser. [volume] (Edgefield, S.C.) 1836-current, 1903-09-16
Sixteen to One.

At one time on our streets last Sat-
urday we saw sixteen bales of cotton
and one load of hay. We trust that
this is not true index to the propor-
tion of the cotton and hay crops OF our
county. Farmers cannot feed stock
on western corn and hay even at the
present piice of cotton, and make any
II oney. 1t will be happy day for
our people when haymaking will
cease to be an afterthought. Were
more attention given to forage crops
it would be certain to follow that more
attention would be given to stock
