Home Coming at Griffin.

The home coming days at
Griffin church was a great sue
cess. The weather was ideal
and the congregation large and
well behaved. Sermons by for
mer pastors, NJ. l.. Jones, w.
j. Foster and a. e. Howard
were all just as good as could be
desired.
The address of Capt. j. a.
Griffin was timely and tender
as were the talks by different
brethren. The singing led by
Bro. Setha Pace was glor-
ious. The old time songs Of
Zion were sung with spirit and
power. On Saturday dinner
was served on the ground and
it was the very hest and abund-
ant. Our Old Father in Israel,
Bro. B. Holder, was present and
offered some Of the most tender
prayers and exhortations. It
was tlulv u great meeting. To
God be all the glory. II.

Farmers of this
County Happy

The Pickens correspondent to
the Columbia State says: The
prospect for jubilant times for
farmers of Pickens county was
meyer brighter than at present.
They are highly clatcd over the
excellent price of cotton and
have an average size crop TO
markets, although 4 little late;
but this ideal weather they are
able to gather and market it to-
advantage. The collections up
to this are unsurpassed, and it
is likely that old debts that have
been standing for years will be
settled this fall The banks of
the country are showing an in.
crease in deposits and it is likely
that there will hc more money
in the banks TO the credit Of the
farmers by Christmas than be
fore in history Of the county.
The merchants of the county
have bought heavily and have
an unusually large stock Of
goods on hand and expect the
largest trade this fall and win
ter they have experienced in
years, and it seems that they
will not be disappointed.
If there were a panic i'll
money circles the majority of
the people OF Pickens county
would not be- affvcted; for they
live at home and board at the
same place. They are an indie
pendent set and raise their hoe
and hominy" at home and then
plant as much cotton rs they
are able to cultivate well. a
bumper crop of corn has beer
made and there will be great
deal to export to less fortunate
places. The forage crop is one
of the largest in years and with
the beautiful weather it is be
ing gathered in the best condi-
tiOn.
With the excellent land of
this county, where l25 bushels
of corn have been raised ON one
acre of land, 95 bushels of oats
and z | 2 bales Of cotton to the
acre, and people are Just begin

MAN LANcED LIoNEss' GUM
Dental Surgery on LareeIy-crown
Queen of the Jungle No
Mere Boys Play.

Chester. Pa.-Thomas Hargreaves,
proprietor of hotel in this city. per-
formed an unusual surgical operation
on young lioness recently. She is
a year old and nearly full grown, and
for several days has been acting
strangely and seemed to be in much
pain, unable to eat properly, and the
conclusion was reached that the trou-
BILE was in her mouth.
An examination showed that the
upper gum on the right hide of the
lioness' mouth had become greatly
inflamed, diseased tooth causing the
trouble. Eargreaves applied to one
veterinarian after another, and several
dentists, but found none willing to
perform the operation. One surgeon
said there was not enough money in
Chester to get him to undertake the
work.
Finally Dr. d. w. Jefferis was called
in by the hotel proprietor and request
ed to lance the gum; but his answer
was: Here is the lance, Hargreaves;
you do it; that operation is a little
out of my line"
Acting on this advice, when the
hotel was closed for the night, Har-
greaves went to the cage Of the lion
ess, whispered few words of sympa-
thy in her ear, and, while the beast
lay upon the floor, jabbed the lance
into her gum. There was terrific
roar, that was heard for sQuares-a
display of claws and squirming, but
that was ALL
After fully realizing the great bene-
fit of the operation the huge beast
purred and licked the hand of the
man to show her appreciation. She is
valued at $1,000.

Pottsville, Pa.-When Mrs. Robert
Helms went to the chicken coop to
see why her fowls were making an
unwonted noise, she found that a
four-foot copperhead had coiled up in
the yard and was giving battle to a
dog, which had driven the reptile away
from a half-devoured chicken
She endeavored to strike it with a
broom when the snake made a thrust
at her, narrowly missing. Her screams
brought men from their work near
by, and they soon killed the snake.

Health Committee, will act in an ad-
Yisory capacity.
Uniformity is absolutely essential in
the examination and marking of the
children in order to secure any results
of value in a nationwide movement
The score card, so long and univer.
sally used, is such a basis for uni
formity that its exclusive use is very
important in this work and it has &C
cordingly been adopted by Kentucky.
The prizes will be of comparatively
small amount or value. To offer val
liable prizes, or to permit such offers
by newspapers, baby food manufac-
turers, photographers, or others inter,
ested in advertising themselves or their
business, would excite the cupidity OF
parents, cause a scramble for gain in
stead of search for knowledge, and en-
danger and tend to commercialize the
whole movement.

charge of Mrs. John L. Woodbury., of
Louisville, who will be glad to answer
all inquiries regarding the work.
