Every Man His Own Doctor.

The average man cannot afford to
employ a physician for every slight all
ment OF injury that may occurs in his
family, nor can he afford to neglect
them, as so slight an injury as the scratch
of q pin has been known to cause the
loss of a limb. Hence every man must
from necessity be his own doctor for
this class of ailments. Success often
depends upon prompt treatment, which
can only be had when suitable medi-
cines are kept at hand. Chamberlain's
Remedies have been in the market for
many years and enjoy a good reputa-
ton.

arrhoea Remedy for bowel complaints.

Shot to Death.

E. M. Dantzler, colored, was shot
and killed Monday afternoon by Geo.
Davis, also colored. Dantzler lives
on his farm, about three miles from
O~rangeburg, and about 2 O'Clock Mon
day afternoon Davis drove up in his
wagon and called Dantzler out and
after a few words shot him with a
gun. Dantzler turned to run and Da-
Wis shot him the second time, killing
him. No one saw the first shot but
an old woman nearby saw the second.
Davis drove on Immediately and as
he drove by she asked whom he had
shot. Davis had not lived with his
wife in some time and it is said he
taxed Dantzler with intimacy with
her and then shot him.
Dantzler was about IS years of age,
married, and probably no colored
man in the county stood higher in the
esteem of the whites. His farm is
valued at betweed 81, 900 and $4,000
He had taught school and was very
quiet and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Deaf &utes Wed.

Hodges, S. c., June ia marriage
of much interest took place here this
afternoon, when Mr.. Robert P. Smoak,
of Cedar Springs, and Miss Caroline
McCaslan, of this place, were united
in the holy bonds of wedlock at the
residence of the BRIDES sister, Mrs.
G. W. McCaslan.
The circumstances of their marriage
make a pretty romance. They are
both deaf mutes and were together in
school at Cedar Spring, where they
first met. MI. Smoak graduated in
1902 and has been teaching in that
institute since. Miss McCaslan grad
uated in 1906.
Only a few of their near relatives
witnessed the ceremony. A minister
came from Little Rock, Ark, to per-
form the ceremony. Rev. J. W.
Michaels, deaf Baptist evangelist to
the Southern deaf, performed the
ceremony in the language know only
to them. There vas also present one
deaf witness to make it legal.

WASHINGTON Tilted -Four Times

Washington Tilted -Four Times
When Col. Washington first met
Martha Curtis she was a dashing
widow, yet in her twenties, beautiful,
charming and wealthy. The father
of his country promptly fell in love
with the lady and as promptly laid
siege to her heart. A chance meet
ing at the house of Major Chamber
layne, an afternoon and an evening
with her and he was almosta an accept
ed sutton.
But the gallant colonel was not ex-
actly an amateur in the art of love
making. He at least had the exper-
fence of great mistakes to profit by,
for history accords the fact that four
ladies declined to share the heart, the
home and the glory of the man who
became the greatest American.
Handsome, we'll dressed, skilled in
the elegant accomplishments of the
day, and above all a soldier, appar-
emily Col. George Washington ought
to have been a lover for whose only
right any woman would have futter-
ed to his arms. But they didn't.
The ladies that thus failed of the
lustrious niche in history that they
might have had were in turn, a miss
of two years, whom her sutton ofsoul-
full seventeen indicted as the "Love-
land Beauty" a Miss Fontleroy, a
Miss Cary and a coquettish Miss Mary
Philipse, whose ancestral anorhouse
at Yonkers, N. Y, is to this dayreck-
oned as a sort of romantic shrine.
But from this train of experience
the soldier, who later vas able so
brilliantly to plan a campaign, doubt
less learned wisdom. He must at
least have found out how not to do it,
for when he had laid siege to the
heart of the widow Curtis it was done
with a master hand that found the
right way as easily as if it had eve
failed at the trick.-Ex.

Moors and Morocco.

Moor and Morocco are words un-
known to the people of that troubled
land. These people know themselves
as Arabs and descendants of those val
liant upholders of the prophets green
standard who swept like flood across
north Africa at the time of the hegira.
The Morocco of the present day they
found possessed by a sturdy race who
claimed descent from the people who
were cast out of Canaan by Joshua,
the son of Nun. Their country, so far
as It's plains were concerned, was TAX
en- from them by the Arabs, and their
fighting strength was made to serve
the Arab cause In the conquest of
Spain. They themselves gradually took
to the mountains, to the great Atlas.
Here they have remained ever since,
speaking their own language, main
tanning their own customs and racial
attributes and obstinately refusing to
be absorbed by the Arab dwellers on
the plains. These people are the Ber.
bers. Their tongue is called Shilhah
Literature they have none, In the or
dinary sense of the word, but they
have a rich store of oral tradition
myth. legend and folklore.

Frozen Comb.

One of the dangers that confront
the pOultryman during winter is freez-
ing of the combs and wattles of fowls.
This is known as frosted comb" and
it causes extreme suffering to any bird
that may be afflicted. Fowls with large
combs and wattles are the chief vic
Tins. as such portions of the head offer
large surfaces for exposure to cold
winds. Fowls with pea combs or small
rose combs are more exempt than those
with large single combs, according to
Farm and Fireside.
The principal cause is due to getting
the combs and wattles wet, especially
when drinking, and then being sudden
ly exposed to cold winds at a tempera-
ture below the freezing point. To pre-
vent the difficulty as far as possible
the birds must not be allowed to drink
in such manner as to get their wat
ties wet. The aperture for drinking
should be large enough to admit the
bill only Should the wattles become
frozen the birds will be rendered use
less until the injured members become
healed. If the hens refuse to lay after
cold weather sets in first look for frost
ed combs and wattles, difficulty often
present, but not noticed AS remedy,
anoint the comb and wattles once a
| day with vaseline, keeping the birds
in warm location, with straw on the
| floor instead of roost at night.
Conditions and surroundings largely
affect the combs of fowls. Warm quar-
ters in winter to protect the fowls
against the cold and a variety of food
that it may lay eggs in winter will
assist in protecting against disease.
