SHELTON

Shelton, S. c., Dec. 14.-We have
had about two weeks of bad weather
and the farmers have sowed a great
deal of grain and it is looking good
so far. They are about throue gath
ering and some have sold their cotton
and some have put it in the ware
houses and say they are going to hold
1T for better prices. A great many
hogs have been killed around here.
The ale plants around here have
about come to stop.
There was not any preaching at
Cool Branch Sunday as the weather

If you happen to be one of the thou
sands of men and women who suffer
ever SO slightly from an inactive liver,
you will be surprised at the immedi-
ate effect of GRIGSBY'S LIVER
LAX. That headache, or lack of ener-
gy or constipated condition, is sure to
be the result of imperfect liver condi-
tions.
Help nature to do the work by one
or two doses of GRIGSBY'S LIV-

new being.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
lntiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing.
and when it is entirely closed, deaf,
ness Is the result, and unless the in
fammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever; 9
cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infiam-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused bv
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

SANTUC NEWS

Santuc, Dec. 15.-December is four.
teen days old Monday and we have
not had more than two days of clear
weather. A few partly cloudy days
but most all cloudy and raining anc
farm work was practically tied ur
and Christmas nearly here and much
grain is waiting to be ploughed in
Saturday came clear, Sunday was q
rainy day, and neither preaching nor
Sunday school in town, but Monday
was clear and cold and some people
were having hog killing time. This
morning it is 10 degrees.
Some few farmers still have some
corn in the field, the ground is too wet
to hold up a wagon and team, and
some stealing of corn from the field
has been started already. If were a
chicken or turkey these times, | tell
you | would stay close to my home.
Mr.. M. r. Jeter had a turkey hen to
march up to his home Monday with a
brood of fourteen, fresh hatched little
ones. Now that is the advanced or
rear guard of turkey crop. A young
turkey needs dry hot weather to do
best and this winter time business of
starting life may be too much for
them. | never saw little turkeys at
this time of the year before. These
are sort of Christmas gift.
Mr.. Marvin Whitlock left here a

When Mr.. ID. J. FAINT was on a short
