$4,000 FOR ONE ACRE OF
CORN.

One Of Lee county Corn Club
boys sold last week So bushels of
pure Nlosby seed corn at 81. 90
per bushel, bringing him S172.00
in cash. He shipped 80 bushels
Of his corn to Prairie, II bushels
to Pontotoc, 2 bushels to Gatman,
Ala, s bushels to N~ettleton and
26 bushels near home. This is a
good showing for a boy. The
boy referred to is Ross Lawhorn
of near Verona, who won the
$1,000 prize for each of the past
two years. The following is his
return for his premium acre:
The acre produced 70 bushels,
60 of which he sold last week at
$500 per bushel, which equals
$4,000 and the SO premium
that he won equals $136 90 in
cash and he has 10 bushels Of his
premium seed corn left which he
and his father will use this year
on the farm. Valuing this 10
bushels at 50. 90 which he can
get any day, gives him a gross
return of $4,000 for his prize
acre.

Parker & Reese


In the death OF Rev. A. L. Patterson
this county has lost one of its best men
The work that he has accomplished, the
power for good that he has been In the
community in which he lived will never
be measured'this side the Judgment.
Easily entreated, forgiving, f~orbearing
long suffering, he was truly a disciple Of
the Master whom he loved. All men knew
him. They knew where he stood when
principle was involved. Unfiinchinglyi
unfalteringly he took the side OF the right
whether it was the popular side or not.
The community in which he lived will
will miss him. His name will long be re-
membered there. He deserves a monu.
ment to his memory for the work he has
done.
Kindness, in an inexhaustable fountain,
welled up from his heart. His love for his
fellow man was sincere and broad, wider
than his church, higher than his creed,
grand and sublime.
Like CHANGERS good nan of religion
He would rather have given out OF doubt
of his Offering and also OF his substance
to his parishioners about him than to
demand his tithes. This noble example
be gave to his people. First he wrought
and then he taught. His work will follow
him.

Few men around Abbeville are better
known than Is Mr.. R. l.. Mabry. he has
been engaged in business here for q
quarter of a century, and during that time
he has made a multitude OF friends.
For the past few years he has been en-
gagged in business with s. j. Link. BE has
now gone into business independently and
his reputation for fair dealing coupled
with his pleasant personality will win for
him q fair and we'll deserved share Of bust

He has opened his store on Trinity

pied by the Cash Bargain Store. The Cash
Bargain Store has moved into n OF the

lance with the people Of Abbeville County

Why the Devil is not as Black as he is
Painted.

You have often heard this expression.
There is some foundation for it. 1t lies in
the great difference between the inGividu-
alities of men.
Some men are as al open book, known
and read of all men. They have few
secrets. They are open, frank, careless
fellows who never figure on what the
world thinks OF them. They are honest
in their dealings and as full OF sin as al
most any body and every body knows it.
Everybody knows it for they do not try to
hide it. They let it out. They do not
care. They do not know how to pretend.
They do not wish to fool anybody-they
are honest. Their sins shine out like par
ticles Of pure metal in a rock, particles un-
mixed and uncombined with any other
substance. At a glance you know what
it is. 1t is easily identified, weighed meas
ured. 1t is not necessary to call names
you know such men. you have his photo
in your minds eye now. He is what he is,
just as bad as he is, just a full OF faults
as he Is. With little excuse andless blush
ing he is just what he is. You know him
to be that, I know him to be that; the
world knows him to be that. He makes no
effort to dissemble, to throw dust in any
body's eyes. He is what he Is. II he is
not a devil he at least has a devil Of a repu-
tation.
There is another man. He isn't what he
is and he is what he isn't. Nobody knows
anything acout this a He leads too
lives, one within himself and another for
the benefit Of the public. He is very care
full Of this exterior life. There are no
blemishes in it. 1t is ideal. All the way
from the home to the amen corner OF the
synagogue he is apparently a shining
light, a tree full Of good fruits. But there
is something sinister about the man. He
Is a stranger in a way. You can't find a
single fault in him, search as you will.
You know he has faults therefore he Is
hiding them. You wonder how many he
Is hiding, how extensive, how great they
are. Such a man is like the o which
has its particles OF metal in chemical COM
bination with other substances. The par
ticles are there, analysis shows that, but
you cannot see a single trace even with
the aid Of the strongest magnifying glass.
He is not honest because he actually pre-
tends to be one thing when he Is another.
It is not necessary to call any names you
know him. You have a mental photograph
of the man now! There are plenty such,
lust as many Of this class as Of the other
class and probably more.
Thus it is when one speaks OF the Devil
not being as black rs he is painted, 1t is
understood that this first class OF men IN
comparison with the second class, does
not offer such an inky shade. II the
second Is white the first is not black, and
SO it is that the Devil is not as black as
he Is painted.

Attend the Fair.

The Edgefleld Chronicle in a leading ed
.itoriai says 1.-THE time for the Fairs is ap
preaching. These fairs ought to be educa-
tional in their natur. OF course many go
for pleasure alone. and it is we'll to have
this feature to Il fairs, but every person
who attends imbibcS more or less valuable
information from such a visit.
Make your arrangements to attend the
Fairs both county and State. You will be
the gamer by doing so. Those who have
exhibits at the Edgefield county fair will
no doubt, in many cases, wish to take the
same exhibit to the State Fair. This can
easily be done for the County fair just pre-
cedes the State fair by q few days"
What the Edgefi9ld Chronicle says ap-
plies to all the fairs to be given during the
year, none need conflict and the people
can attend oil the fairs and come to the
State Fair. Tee State Fair will be held in
Columbia October 81, November l, 2, 3, and

ments to attend the Fair as the attendance
