Horkday for tho Orphans.

A recent movement set on foot by
Howard l.. Crumley, of the Decatur
(Ga.) Orphans Home, is likely to be
of very considerable service in tho
near future to our orphan children.
The proposition is that every man in
the State, every woman, every child
should set apart September %
Saturday of this year, the proceeds
of his labor on that day, or whatever
he can make, if he be not in business,
to the support Of the orphans in the
institution he loves best. In this
State Presbyterians will work for
the Thornwell Orphanage, Clinton /;
the Methodists for the Epworth Or
phanage, Columbia the Baptists for
the Connie Maxwell Orphanage,
Greenwood. Send promptly on the
Monday following the sum made or
raised to the institution of your
choice. The help coming in at that
time will tide over these institutions
till the Thanksgiving and Christmas
days. Send it, be it little or much.
There are about six hundred or
phans in these institutions, and there
are others besides. The Lutheran
Orphanage is at Salem, Va, the He
brew Orphanage is at Atlanta.
Draw your check or money order in
favor of the institution you prefer
and mail it to the address given
above.

Rev. J. R. Moore In Italy.

Naples, Italy, August 26.-Editors
Courier: We are happy to be on
board the steamer that we trust will
land us in Boston September 7th.
We reached Naples on August Oath
and went at once to dinner (lunch), /,
and then back to the train that took
US out to see the ruins of Pompeii.
The next day some of us rested
quietly at our hotel, Britonque, in
Naples, while some went to Vesu-
vius, others shopping, etc.
We have had fine trip from the
time we left London, after having
taken our splendid trip through Eng
land and Scotland. Leaving London
July 2l, we went to Paris, where we
spent four days besides Sunday, and
visited Versailles. Thence we went
to Brussells and on through parts of
Germany, Switzerland and on to
Italy. Most interesting points were
on the Rhine and in Heidelburg.
Also in Berne, lnterlaken, Lucerne,
Geisback and Murren mountains and
other points of the Alps, the lovely
lakes of Switzerland, etc. In Italy,
we first stopped at Milon and visited
that most wonderful Gothic Cathe-
dral. Thence to the quaint and
curious city of Venice, and next to
Florence, the "City of Flowers" and
then on to Pisa, the leaning tower,
one of the seven wonders of the
world. Next we went to Rome, the
eternal City" Here we spent six
days, coming to Naples for our last
days in Italy.
We are to land at Gibralter Tues
day and then begin our long voyage
over the Atlantic. How hungry |
am for South Carolina! This will
precede me, because | hasten to
write it on board our steamer,
Romantic, to send to land via Eng
land. Hoping to see South Caro-
lima soon, am

Men Past Sixty In Danger.

More than half of mankind over sixty
years of age suffer from kidney and blad-
der disorders, usually enlargement of
prostate gland. This is both painful and
dangerous and Foley's Kidney Cure
should be taken at the first sign of dan
ger, as it correots irregularities and has
cured many old men of this disease.
Mr.. Rodney Burnett, Rock Port, Mo-,
writes: III suffered from enlarged pres
tate gland and kidney trouble for years

How Consumption Begins.

Consumption always begins with a
cough that fingers. A cough that hangs
on and will not yield to the usual treat
ment may not mean consumption, but
too often it does mean this dead destroyer
has gained footing. .-Rydale's Cough
Elixir is very successful in checking the
progress of throat andl lung diseases.
Even consumption: yields to it's powerful
influence, If its use ia begun before the
disease is too deep seated. This modern
scientific remedyl kills the germs that
cause consumption. 1t removes the cause
and helps nature rebuild the broken down
tissue. If you have a stubborn cough
try Rydale's Cough Elixir, it will not dis
appoint you. Walhalla Drug Company;

CottoG Seed Hulls Going Up.

Macon, Ga, September deal
ers here are expecting the price of
cotton seed hulls to go to Sl2 ton
before the season is over. Last year
the price reached $S a ton, and peo.
pie declared they could not buy them
at that price, but nearly all that
were made were bought eagerly. 1t
is now contended that the feeding
value of hulls is *l2 a ton that it
compares with that of the average
hay, and man can afford to pay as
high as $l2 ton. 1t is said that
meal will sell for $50 ton before
the season is over. The price last
season was 81 to S26 ton.
The local cotton conditions are
said to be the standard by which
meal and hulls prices are regulated
AS the yield in this territory will be
about % per cent short, proper
tionatc increase will occur in the
price of the meal and hulls.

Dyspepsia or INDIGESTION.

The term dyspepsia" means lack of
pepsin in the stomach. Indigestion is
rightly used when ever tho food is not
properly digested, regardless to the
cause. 1t is immaterial whether you
call your ailment dyspepsia or indigestion

wanted only the handkerchief.
Binding the handkerchief tightly
above the wound, he tried to make a
tourniquet with his revolver. This,
however, he could not do, the hand
kerchief not being long enough; so
he then passed it round the leg,
crossing the ends, and, pulling them
tight with all his strength, he
knotted them above the wound, the
knot pressing we'll into the leg, thus
greatly stanching the flow of blood.
LAST KIND OFFICES.
The officer then shifted the
wounded man into as comfortable
position an the ground would permit
and scraped up with his hands the
sandy soil to form pillow for the
head of the wounded man. "Now,"
said the officer, "this is all | can do
for you, my man. wish l could do
more, but time flies and 80 must 1.
Here is a canteen of water. I'll
leave it by your side. Good.by."
The wounded man replied "You
may be Yankee, but, by God, you
are gentleman"
And they parted; the officer went
walking to the breastwork, and the
poor, wounded rebel-where? Did
he die on the field, or was he found
and cared for by his comrades, only
to die q his wounds, or did he re-
cover aud live? What was the
sequel? Who can tell? The officer
got through the terrible war unhurt,
and is alive and well; but he would
dearly like to know what became of
the gallant soldier he left in such
sad plight.
There was one curious thing in
connection with this incident that
occurred to the officer in thinking
the occurrence over, and that was
that from the time of his kneeling
beside the wounded man until he
returned to the breastwork he was
conscious of the fact that not one
single shot from the rebel line was
fred at him.
Shortly after the officers return
to the breastwork the rebels again
advanced on it, with the same dis
astrous result as followed their previ-
GUS attempt. The Union infantry
then relieved the cavalry, which
withdrew, and the fiercest fighting of
tho. bloody day was over that long,
clear. space, with belts of open tim.
Der on either side.
ASKS FOR INFORMATION.
Should this meet the eye of
Southern survivor of that horrible
day who can in any way recall or is
cognizant of such an incident as has
been described, Charles G.. Grant,
4OS Franklin Building, Philadelphia,
would be glad to hear from him.
AS near as memory serves, the
general appearance of the wounded
Confederate was that of a man of
height little over the average, dark
hair, and it is conjectured, of a
swarthy complexion. This, how
ever, is merely guess, as at the
time he wore the deadly pallor of all
men badly wounded in battle. AS
to his age, he might have been any
where between twenty and twenty
five, perhaps younger, perhaps lit
tie older.
