Csc the Nostrilg, Not the Mouth, and
Take Deep InhaIations.
Did you ever observe whether you
breathe through the mouth or nostri!s?
It makes a wonderful difference. When
we talk we are forced to breathe
through the mouth, says the Philadel-
phia Inquirer When not speaking the
lips should be we'll closed, and the
breathing should be entirely by the
nostrils, but this is not all. The habit
Of slow, measured, deep breathing that
covers the entire lung surface is Of
more value and Importance than you
will ever believe until you have tried
It, and when you have established the
habit of breathing in this manner you
will say some remarkable things in its
favor. It will reach all points Of your
physical system All the benefits that
occur from healthy condition OF the
blood Will in a greater Or less degree
be yours, for the manner and complete
ness with which the inhaled air comes
in contact with the blood in the lungs
are Of the utmost Importance to every
vital process. The lungs are kind OF
furnace. il which the oxygen Of the
air is consumed and combined with
other elements 4 process necessary to
life, the perfection OF which depends
upon the purity Of the air and the man
ner Of inhaling it.

TO reach the outside world by rail:
Summertou has become the neadquar-
ters for an extensive Rural Free Deliv-
ery of the daily mail, which links the
hearts and minds OF manv people
throuohout the surrounding country to
the point OF central delivery: the town
Summerton and the adjoining territory
have become Incorporated us it were
into Joint stock school Institution, and
the children from far and vide meet
here live days each week. not merely to
learn the elements of book knowledge,
but 70 behold the growth OF the town,
to make friendly alliance for today and
for future reference and more than
that, to mold the parents into mutual
concert OF action to build a better town
and a better citizenship.
Five hundred thousand dollars worth
of groceries and dry goods will be ship
ped into Summerton during the present
fall months: seven thousand bales OF
cotton were sold at this market last
year and the cotton buyers promise q
better market this year. good crops
have already been made, the people
have good bank deposits: much real es-
tate has been sold. there is more for
sale and the increasing demand for lots
foretell an interesting story.
Surely if there are reasons for the
magnificent growth of this locality du-
ring the past twenty-five years as here
in portrayed, there are ten thousand
reasons why the Sammerton of the fE
ture will be q city worth living in.

Summertou Yesterday and Today.

Twenty-Five years ago the town OF
Summerton was hardly of sufficient i'm
portauce TO receive the attention of the
map makers; at that time Summerton
had no railway facilities and freight
came and cotton went by way of
Wrisht's Bluff, down the Santee TO
Charleston; the daily mail was handed
out by a carrier. who ran his route
through this neighborhood from the
town OF Manning: there were no stores
or trading houses OF any importance a
quarter OF century ago and the scat
tered residents of this community in
those days lived apart with no binding
ties of school or church or business in
terests.
The Summerton Of yesterday was
equally as fair land as the Summerton
of today, but the conditions necessary
for the making OF a town were wanting:
the appearance Of the Summerton Of to-
day means that something has happened
along the banks of the Santee during
the past 25 years: new people have
moved in the vicinity: the railroad has
come and three opportunities are offer
ed the people of this section each day

The first excursion over the Alcolu

The first excursion over the Alcolu
railroad last Saturday was 4 great sue
cess. The two passenger cars were
packed, and the crowd on reaching
;Alcolu divided, some coming to Man
ming, others going TO Charleston and
some went to Sumter. The bulk of the
crowd came to Manning and the uerch-
ants spread themselves to make good
impression This excursion was for
white people only. Next Saturday the
colored people have arranged for IN

where they are to have 4 big rally
We invite the attention OF our
readers to the attractive shoe ao'er-
tisement OF J. W. Mcleod. Mr.. ,. l.
Till, the manager OF this business, IS
an enthusiast when II comes 10 shoes,
and if there is anything he loves to.
advertise and sell it is shoes. Till con.
tends and offers to back it up that he
has the best goods in town for the
money. Of course, we know nothing
about that. but we do know that Till
does not believe in permitting anybody
10 leave his store without buying. and
he certainly has the stock to select
from.
We want the board of trade OF this
town to communicate with the presl-
dent Of the North Western Railroad
with view to bringing that road here:
There is no reason why Manning should
not get benefit from this road, and we
are sure that Captain Thomas Wilson
would consider a sensible business
proposition from this town. To our
personal knowledge we know that
Captain Wilson entertains kind teeI-
ing for Manning but like every other
business man there must be something
more than sentiment to induce him to
make the necessary changes to bring
his road here.
Among the enterprising business
men of this day. none can excel Mr. j.
H. Riebv in Will power to work for
trade. Take look at the advertising
columns of this and last weeks issue
and the page ad. of Mr.. Rigby has been
favorablv commented upon even by
some OF Mr.. Rigby's competitors. and
this newspaper has been complimented

page space, there is no mlsrepresenta-
ton. and every one who reads it can
feel assured that Rigby will do every
thing he promises. The stock OF goods
in Rigby'S store is tie best we have
ever seen in it. and he has u splendid
force of salesmen who know just how
to make customer feel at home. 1t
is needless for US to state ANYTHING
about the reliability OF Eigby. That
reputation was made long ago; it is a
legacy handed down from father to soa
that is jealousy guarded.
J. H. Rigby is one of Manning's cot
ton market builders, and is doing all
in his power to get full prices for the
cotton that comes here.
He is the first buyer in the town to
force the price to l03 cents. and he will
always be found trying to do something
for his patrons. AS he is with cotton,
so is he with goods, read his advertls-
ment carefully and then go to his store
and give him an opportunity to make a

CANDLE AUCTIONS.
TIE Way Public Sales Were Former.
ly Conducted In England.

The Way Public Sales Were Former.
ly Conducted In England.
Candle auction was a well known
method of procedure in England in the
early days Of the East India company.
Public notices Of such sales were first
put up at the royal exchange. When
the day came candle exactly an inch
long was placed on the auctioneers
desk. Directly the sale began the
candle was lighted. So long as it con-
inued to burn bidding went on mer-
rtly, but the instant the fame died
away the goods were knocked down to
the last bidder.
In this manner immense conslgn-
nents Of silks, irdigo, spices and so
forth were disposed OF. thousands OF
pounds changing hands during the
burning Of the inch Of candle.
Before the auction began q list was
read over Of the names Of persons not
permitted ''to bid at the candle" This
contained the names Of those who had
failed to pay their debts or had In any
way wronged the company, VINO
"blacklisted" them in consequence

BOATING ON THE NILE.

Tho Best Pilots Run Aground Two or
Three Times a Day.
Navigation on the Nile is not SO COM
plicated a matter as upon the north
Atlantic, writes Alonzo Clarke Robin
son in Outing. TO run at full speed
upon a sand bar is an occurrence Of
such frequency as hardly to elicit a
comment from the passengers. The
crew take more interest because they
are obliged to push the boat off again
with poles, and this entails great
amount of shouting and some work.
The Nile below the first cataract IS
fairly broad, muddy river, flowing be-
tween deposed banks varying from
six to eight to twenty to thirty feet IN
height. It's surface is interrupted eT-
erywhere by sand sDits and Islands
upon which are to be seen thousands
Of birds. The channel, if such it can
be called, winds from one side to the
other and changes completely with ev-
cry food; hence even the best pilots
run aground two or three times day.
It is, Of course, impossible to proceed
at night, and each days voyage comes
to an end wherever darkness happens
to overtake onc The boats nose is
simply run plump on the bank, two
men leap out and drive stakes to which
to make fast, and there you are for the
night. 4 very simple and effective
method, without any ostentation and
requiring very little knowledge OF
mathematics; it has also the advantage
Of variety. Sometimes one finds one
self alone beneath the wonderful
Egyptian moon lighting up the river,
the distant cliffs and the silent, empty
plain, or perhaps one stops near some
little native village, in which case the
bank is lined with silent, curious fig
ures, who crouch for hours wrapped in
their white cloth coverings. Once we
tied up beside lonely brick kiln. The
sight was q weird one. The red fare
Of the furnace, fed with sugar cane,
cast intermittent flashes Of light into
the night, in anG out Of which moved
black half naked natives, while over
head was the cloudless, star lit sky OF
