Doing.

'Tis easy to revel in Dreapland,
And imagine how things should be;
But the man who is up and doing
Is the man Of destiny.
The secret of life is not knowing,
Or idly dreaming all day;
But fearlessly daring and doing,
Nor minding the means or way.
For in life we can konw but little,
But find many things to do;
And the only watchword Is onward
To those who are brave and true.
'Tis easy to judge another,
And show what his life should be;
But his own sweet sin within him,
Is hard for man to see.

FEW HERE KNOW THIS.
Simple Homemade Treatment Said
to Overcome Rheumatism.

When an eminent authority an
nounced in the Scranton, (Pa.) Times
that he had found a new way to treat
that dread American disease, Rheu-
matism, with just common, everyday
drugs found in any drug store, the
physicians were slow indeed to at
tacn much Importance to his claims.
This was only few months ago. To-
day nearly every newspaper in the
country, even the Metropolitan dali
lies,is announcing 1t and the splendid
results achieved. 1t is so simple that
any one can prepare 1t at home at
small cost. 1t is made as up follows:
Get from any good prescription phar-
macy Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla
three ounces. Mix by shaking in a
bottle and take in teaspoonful doses
after each meal and at bed time.
These are all simple ingredients max
ing an absolutely harmless home
remedy at little cost.
Rheumatism as every one knows,
Is symptom OF deranged kidneys.
1t Is a condition produced by the fall
ure OF the kidneys TO properly filter
or strain from the blood the uric acid
and other~matter, which, If not oradi-
Gated, either In the urine or through
the skin pores, remains In the blood
decomposes and forms about the
joints and muscles, causing the un-
told suffering and deformity of rheu-
matism. e.. ..
This prescription is said to be a
splendid healing, cleansing and invig-
Grating tonic to the kidneys and gives
almost immediate relief in all forms
of, bladder and urinary trouble and
backache. He also warns people in
a leading New York paper against the
discriminate use of many patent
medicines.

virginia Knight Errant Steals Lady
from Lover and Escapes.

Norfolk. Va, Nov. 21-When John
Hall, of Camden, S. c., was half way
between South Mills, from Elizabeth
CITY, With Miss Maggie Sawyer, of
the former place, in buggy, yester-
day, on their way to be married, they
were held up by Edmund Daily, OF
South Mills, rival for the young
woman's hand, and when Hall re-
fused to halt he was shot, but not
seriously wounded. Daily then took
the struggling woman from Halls We
htc!e, and put her into his own, leav-
ing The wounded man to care for
himself -,
Reports from South Mills and Eliz-
abeth City say that Hall is not dan
gerously wounded and that no trace
has been discovered of Daily and
Miss Sawyer.
Robert Sawyer, a brother of the
young woman, with a posse Of his
friends, is securing the country for
the pair. 1t Is probable that serious
trouble will result If the searchers
catch the abductor of Miss Sawyer.

ningham was tried to-day in the
Court Of General Sessions for the
murder of Babe Huntsinger. The
jury returned a verdict Of not guilty.
The killing occurred in June in this
city. Cunningham hit Huntsinger in
the head with brick, infiicting a
wound which caused death some
days later. Tie plea Of self-defense

verdict of not guilty and Judge
Watts so instructed the jury. Hunt

a BurbariOuS Act.
(Seneca Farm and Factory


One Of the most inhuman and bar
barious acts ever heard Of took place
on the Main street Of Seneca last Sat
urday. A stranger, said to be on his
way home on the Georgia side of the
river, literally tore the tongue out Of
the mouth Of the horse he was driv-
ing. AS authentic report as can be
gotten Is to the effect that the horse
was seen to balk, which greatly an
gered the inhuman drive, who there
upon alighted from the buggy and
proceeded to cvtract, by main force,
the horses Iprgue. When last seen
he was driving the said horse in the
direction Of home.
1t is the most outrageous, infam-
Gus and barbarious act we ever heard
of being perpetrated on a dumb brute
and the guilty scoundrel, whoever he
may be, should be sought out, and,
If possible to get him, he should be
made to pay the penalty as provided
by the law in such cases. Such acts
should and do arouse the indignation
OF good people. In this case we es-
pecially hope that the authorities will
make an effort to bring the man to
justice and punish him to the full
extent Of the law.

DENrzENs GET FoRETAsTE
of Future State--Red Light District
of Columbia in Flames.

Columbia, Nov. 21.--Almost an en-
tire block in the heart of the red
llght district was burned out last
night, the fire starting in q small
frame house in the rear of Carrie
Bakers place and occupied by her
sister, Lizzie Williams, both coloreH
The flames soon spread to the two
new frame structures next door, oc-
cupied by Annie Hardin and her two
harems, where there was perhaps
$4,000 worth Of furniture. No fur
nfture was saved from any of these
four places. There were half G. dozen
pianos In the Hardin woman's
houses, one of them said to have cost
$4,000. The small frame house west
OF the Baker woman's place, occu-
pied by Cells Green, colored, was
also reduced to ashes.
Almost the entire town was in a.
bright glare for an hour, while the
fire was raging and five thousand
people, among them several hundred
ladies, were present. The fr@ de-
partment seemed unable to cope with
the situation, the fire quitting only,
when 1t failed to find food.
The douching Of small two-story
frame building just east Of Annie
'Hardin's second house stopped the
fiames on that side and saved several
small houses occupied by negroes.
The proprietresses Of the five houses
burned were the owners both Of the
houses and the furniture, which was
nearly all insured. The Hardin wo-
mans two houses were perhaps the
most expensively equipped In the
South.

STATE FAIR CLOSED.
Farmers Holding their Own--Politi-
cal Prospects--Teddy or Taft?

Columbia, s. c., Nov. 19.-Editors
Courier: Another State Fair has
passed and lot of records were
broken. "The largest and best ma
tured mob of them all" came and
went, cad must say the most sober.
Our pike did it's share in handling
the people-from four to six hun
dred at clip-and save two fully
loaded colored ladies, all was peace.
Nearly all the cotton in this neck
of the woods is out, and can be seen
piled about farm houses. There is
no rush IL put 1t on the market, and
no railroad mere is doing by one
third the work 1T did last year this
time. You ask why? It's plain
enough. Most farmers do not have
to sell their cotton. They have grub
at home and to spare to those who
are short, and the advanced price in
nearly all man eats and wears makes
him do on less. The merchant has
cut his orders short, and it's not SO
hard to handle. That's why.
The farmers corn crib has been
transferred from Illinois,, Iowa and
wise his smokehouse from Chicago,
wise his mokehouse from Chicago,
Kansas City, etc., to his backyard.
His pens are full Of fine, fat hogs, the
fields are full of birds and rabbits,
the woods are full of 'possums and
squirrels; he has plenty of potatoes,
his garden Is full Of turnfps and win
ter green's and shis barn and stock
are full of peavine hay, and as a rule
he is out of debt, and full Of vim, in
dependence and home-raised grub.
Sell cotton? Not by mill size at
10 cents. He would join forces with
that old man whose wife lived SO
/ long In shoe. SO let the cotton
gamblers, robbers and cut-throats
get full of business and see who
comes out of the horn first.
The papers are full of foot ball
and Presidential possibilities, etc.
But If Teddy can't land the job,
then watch Cortelyou and see if am
far wrong. Taft and the rest booked
for this job are merely a joke, a
dream and clap-trap worked over
time to catch suckers. Just wait
and see. Some one played a trick on
Taft, You say? Sure. But all's fair
in love, politics and war. It's all the
same when put to music, as the close
fisted old deacon thought when called
on to raise "Old Hundred" at the
camp meeting. He opened up with

Where Money Is Safe.
(Abbeville Press and Banner

(Abbeville Press and Banner.)
The post Office at Seneca was en-
tered one night last week by some
body Who wanted the contents Of the
safe. The safe was broken, and 5000
in money was taken. If anybody
wants the contents Of the safe be-
longing to this editor, he is respect
fully asked not to break it. Know
ing that professional gentlemen can
get into it about as easy as the av-
erage citizen can get into a cigar
box, we leave it open to prevent the
necessity Of breaking it. We don't
keep any money in it. If we should
get little money, we either hide it,
pay debts with it, or deposit it in
bank. We would not think Of leav-
ing money in our safe. Not so Ions
ago, we received a little money when
1t was too late to dispose of 1t. We
put it in an old Bible and hid the
Bible. We know If a robber should
find the Bible that he would not
stop to search the Scriptures for
money.

1t has never been the custom in South
