he has two curnpetltors in the cam paign. who
are an xiuus TO have him retired TO private
life. Commenting on this, the Spartanbure

Death Of Mrs. j. III. Sanders

Mrs. j. H. Sanders died at her home
in the city Tuesday night, July II
1906, at the age of II years. Her re
mains were laid to rest in the Sharon
cemetery. The funeral services were
conducted by Rev. Mr.. Lawson. She
was good christian woman and was
loved by all who knew her.
Peaceful he thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in thy grave so low,
Thou no more will join our number,
Thou no more our sorrows know,
Yet, again we hope to meet thee.
When the day of life is fled.
And in heaven with joy to greet thee
Where no farewell tears are shed.
Call not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are DER,
On the border land we left her.
Soon to meet and to part no more.
When we leave this world of changes
When we leave this world of care,
We shall find our missing loved one
In our Fathers mansion fair.

Gentlemen -
It's sound sense that we tell you.
1t will cost less dollars to paint your
church with J.. & Nj. Paint, because
more painting is done with one gallon
of L. & Nj. than With two gallons OF
other paints, and the L. q M. Zinc
hardens the L. & M. White Lead and
makes the l.. & M. Paint wear like
iron.
Any church will be given liberal
quantity free whenever they paint.
gallons L. & M. mixed with 8 gal.
Ions Linseed OIL will paint moderate
sized house.
Actual cost L. & M. about $l,20 pei

J. f. Webb, Painter, Hickory, n
c., writes, "Houses painted with L. 8
NJ. Is years ago have not needed
painting since"

two classes of subjects upon which es-
says are invited:
Glass /. Political and Economic
% The Monroe doctrine and it's in
fuence on the political and economic

The influence of the Panama canal on
the commercial and political develop
ment of Latin America. CD Present
cOHulllOHS ana future possibilities OF
the trade of the United States with
South America. (4) The present ma
terial and economic progress of South
America. (5) The practicability and
utility of the proposed Pan-American
railway.
Class 2, Historically The infiu.
ence and conditions that worked for
the independence and establishment of
the South American republics. (2)
The influences and conditions that
worked for the independence and es-
tablishment of the Central American
republics and Mexico. 60 The char
acter and achievements of Bolivar as
shown in the struggle for the inde-
pendence of northern South America.
ca The character and achievements
of San Martin as shown in the strug-
gle for the independence of southern

encing the overthrow of the empire

AID FOR DEPENDENT WOVEN

A. veritable "old maids paradise" is
located in Scituate That ancient
South Shore town bears the distinction
of possessing fund of which the pro-
ceeds are devoted to the care of de-
pendent maiden women.
So far as the Scituate Selectmen
know there is not life fund under
the supervision of town anywhere in
the state. More than a quarter of a
century ago Miss Eliza Jenkins decid-
ed that women approaching the sere
and yellow leaf of life. who had. like
herself, remained single from cl.oice
or otherwise, should be provided for
when they became dependent wholly
upon themselves. The idea of an old
folks home in Scituate was at that
time entirely out of the question. Miss
jenkins straightway did the next best
thing and left fund of $4,000. the
interest of which is yearly distributed
among the worthy maidens of the
town.
The Jenkins fund has always been
in charge of the Selectmen. In the last
few years they have placed about 500
