Rheumatic
Pains

my mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DR..
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her"
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Roycefeld, N. ].
The pains OF rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence OF
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and if
it does not benefit he will return
your money.

MARRIED AT BRANCHVILLE.
Two Happy Young Hearts, Which
Now Beat as One.

The Branchville Journal says on
Sunday afternoon at the residence OF
the brides father, Mr.. A. S. Dukes,
his daughter. Miss Msttie Dukes,
was married to Mr.. W. c. Berry.
The commodious residence had
been beautifully decorated for the
occasion, and promptly at 5 o'clock
the sweet strains of Mendelsohn's S
wedding march were sounded by
Mrs. E. H. Beckham, and the couple
entered the parlor, where Rev. e..
H. Beckham, using the beautiful
and impressing service of the Meth
odist church, pronounced them man
and wife.
After the ceremony everybody was
invited into the dining room where
a bountiful feast was served.
The bridal couple left soon after
wards for their new home few
miles out of town. Mrs. Berry was
very popular in Branchville, her
pleasant and winning manners max
ing friends of all with whom she
came in contact. The groom is the
son of Mr.. James Berry, and is a
young man of sterling worth and
ability.

A MULE THIEF CAUGHT.
Tried to Give Leg Bail But Was
Run Down.

A negro by the name of Lawrence
Corley, who says he lives near Bow
man, went to st. Matthews on last
Tuesday and traded eff mule he
had stolen, to some Gypsies who
were camped near that town. On
Wednesday morning he went into
St. Matthews, and was spotted at
once as a suspicious character by
Mr.. F. F. Hill, the efficient and
wide-awake chief of police of ST..
Matthews. Mr.. Hill made some en-
quiry about the wondering Corley,
which evidently came to his ears,
as he kept an eye on Mr.. Hill and
evaded that gentleman.
When he became convinced that
he was being shadowed, he con-
cluded to leave the town and made
a dash for liberty, closely followed
by Chief of Police Hill, Sheriff o. M.
Dantzler and Mr.. Nose Jones. They
followed the fugitive over hill and
dale and a fence occasionally until
finally he was overhauled and taken
into custody. He made a good race,
but the officers that were behind
him made a better one. He was
soon safe in the lookup, where he
will stay until he is sent to the
chain gang to help build roads.
He confided to Sheriff Dantzler
that had stolen the mule he had
traded to the Gypsies from man
by the name of Mcdonald of the
Bowman section. Such fellows as
Corley should be taught severe les
son. We suppose the authorities at
st. Matthews recovered the mule and
now holds it for its rightful own
er. If the so-called Gypsies lost any
thing by the transaction it serves
them right. as they have no busi-
ness trading for stolen mules.

GETTING THINGS READY
For the Great Sunday School Con-
vention Next Month.


A meeting was held on Wednesday
evening at the Luthern church Of
the members of the different COM
mittees having in charge the prepa-
ration for the State Sunday School
Convention, which meets here next
month. Mr.. J. NJ. Way, fielu secre-
tary of the Sunday School Associa-
ton of this State, was present and
took part in the deliberations Of the
committee Things are moving on
smoothly, and no fear is entertained
but that our people will take care OF
the convention in their usual hos
pitable style.
A committee was appointed on
house visitation during the session
of the convention. This commit
tee will divide the city into districts,
composed of about 10 families each.
and will appoint a local visitor who
will in company with one Of the Wis
iting delegates make visits to the
homes in their respective districts.
This committee is composed of the
following gentlemen: Rev. S. D.
Colyer, chairman; A. C. Dibb!e, R.
F. Bryant. w. B. Thompson, T. o.
S. Dibble, ]. c.. Ransdale, F. S. Dib-
Bile, Geo Zeigler and Henry Won
Oshen.
Mr.. Way says the convention will
be composed of representative men
and women of their respective COM
munities, each denomination being
represented, and that no single
church gathering could compare
with it. He thinks it will be great
opportunity for the people of the
city to become interested in this
great Sunday School movement. and
there will be no end of the benefit
spiritually to be derived from the
gathering. He said that he wanted
the pastors of the several churches
to arrange to hold series of serv'
ices after the close of the conren-
ton and that he believed that the
city would be evaIgclized. Let us
all pray for this.

"a KNIGHT FOR A DAY"
This Musical Comedy will be Played
Here Tuesday Evening.

In speaking of "A Knight for a
Day" the Winston, n. c., Journal
says:
with outspoken delight very
large audience witnessed in the Elks'
auditorium last night the two-act
musical comedy, A Knight for a
Day The production went with a
vim, the comedy lines and situations
were provokingly slany, the chorus
was lively and quite good looking
generally, and the scenery and cos
tuning such as to satisfy the most
critical.
Mr.. Frank Deshon, who has en-.
joyed fine reputation as COM
edian for a score OF years or more
Though his sprightliness and youth
full appearance might belle this)
had the main role down to a, b, c..
handling it easily and with mirthful
JUNCTION in voice and expression.
Miss Eileen Tate, as the sweet young
thing, was all Of that and more.
She exhibited charming stage pres
ence, very musical and powerful
voice, and acted with superb taste
withal With chorus of men she
sang a Garden of Dreams really
beautifully, and was encored again
and again.
"a share of the lions honors
must go to Miss Jewell Darrell, who
played the chief female comedy part,
that of 'Tillie, the servant lady.
She was really funny, both in make
up and expression, and never loafed
on her part. Her songs. I'd Like a
Situation Just Like That and
Hang Out the Front Door Key,
were rendered in way to evoke
hearty laughter and applaus. Miss
Darrell is real artist.

AN EDUCATED PIG.
Helped Itself to Milk From a Fine

The Journal says Mr.. J. B. Hen
derson, OF Branchville, has very
fine milk COW that gives a great
quantity of milk and of which he is
very proud. For the past few weeks
this COW has not been giving the US
ual amount of milk, even when the
feed was increased and the best OF
attention given, she still failed to
give any more milk.
Suspicion was aroused by this and
thinking that some one was visiting
his barnyard in the peaceful and
still hours Of the time when men
should sleep and appropriating the
milk to their. use a watch was made
to find out the parties. The one
that was getting the milk from this
fine sookie was found and who do
you suppose it was?
One of those berkshire pigs in
the same lot had learned that this
milk was the best of food for HIM
self and he was peacefully making
i meal on the milk that should have
gone into the pail. The pig was
stopped from this and since then
the usual amount of milk has been
received.
