In Gods Country.

Judge Ernest Gary, who's judgments are
Just and whose rulings are right left Abbeville
last Sunday afternoon. whittier he had come
to see q mother who has as much reason to
be proud OF her jewels as had the Spartan
mother Judge Gary said this was Gods coun
try. It's trees and Its flowers grow to greater
perfection here than on any other spot Of
ground on this earth, and he might have add
ed that the country that grows magnificent
trees and beautiful flowers produced the finest
specimens of manhood and the most beauti'
full women that ever anne from the land Of
The great Creator of the Universe. A country
is blessed indeed that produces manly men
womanly women, splendid trees and beauti'
full flowers.
Judge Gary owns the whole front OF q bic
square that faces q main street and 1t Is
bounded on two sides by streets at right
angles. He owns acres Of what was once
known as the MCGOWAN lot on magazine
street. It is the same on which Gen. Mo.
Gowan built bis dwelling before the war. 1,
now grows stately specimens OF the forest
and Its ornamental trees join them In beauty
flying one of the prettiest lots in town.
The former home OF Gen. McGowan has
been moved to q place nearer the street. II
has been put in the best of repairs, and The

Its splendid proportions. Z

Concerning Snakes.

The Abbeville papers tell OF a man In thai
county who killed thirty-aeven highland
moccasins a few days ago and of a moman
who found a large moccasin spugly enscoped
in q hens peRt. Don't you think 1t Is time to
vote 1t out?-Newberry Observer.
Now isn't that a question for a sane man &c
ask? "Vote 1t out" when there are so many
snakes In the county! Not on our tin-iype.
Newberry has a Little Mountain, n Able.
Vile has q Little Mountain. Rattle snakes
are indigenous TO both localities, and snake
bite medicine is In demand.
Liquid snake medicine Is almost as good az
a hot chicken locaAy applied. 1t may be that
the Observer leans to the hot chicken remedy
In that case 1t is more difficult to keep the
autldote on hands as 1t necessitates having
.poulle vivant" where he can be applied at q
moments notice. The liquid antidote is said
to Improve the longer 1t is kept, and is an
un ia Hing remedy.
The Observer Is joking, tough. Ifyou will
enter the Observers home and "mosey'
around to the dining room closet where the
good lady of the house keeps her black berry
and scuppernone, and squint around a bit
you Will very likely find some AL snake med
lcine in So fficientquantity for several appli'
cations.
The Observer knows q good thing as well
as other folks and keeps a little handy in case
OF emergency.
How about II?
