Auction Sale First Monday.

As annouL ced in his half-page
advertisement this week, Mr.. j.
Perry Waddell will hold another
auction sale of horses, mares and
mules at Edgefeld on the first Mon
day in January. Mr.. Waddell has
already held two auction sales IN
Edgefeld and one at Johnston.
Since be came among our people he
has made friends, both personal
friends and business friends. He
is located in Greenville and con.
ducts a large stock business
there. Having made large pur-
chases of stock, shipping them in
car lots to different towns, he is in
position to sell at a small margin
of profit. He has sold some good
stock around Edge6eld and we feel
confident that the auction sale on
the first Monday in January will be
largely attended. Mr.. Waddell
stands squarely behind every state
ment be makes about the stock he
sells. If you are in need of a horse,
mare or mule attend the sale on the
first Monday in January.

HartslvslilIe.

In The college town Of Bartsville,
where the Coker college for women
is located, such an advanced state
of universal sanitation has been es-
tablished that Hartsville becomes
an inspiration and an example for
every city in the South. The report
of Secretary James A. Haynes, M.
D., of the state board of health of
South Carolina gives high praise to
the college itself, which he found
equipped with a modern sanitary
system Of plumbling, the college
buildings we'll ventilated, the DOR
mitories of sufficient size and every
thing in strictly sanitary condition.
Of Hsrtsviile Or Haynes says it goes
farther towards the ideal sanitary
city than any other city in the state
on account of the activities of it's
board of health.
Further tribute, is contained in a
private letter from Dr.. Carter,
senior surgeon of the United States
bureau of health, in which he
says:
Il feel as if I really ought to tell
you about Hartsville. 1t is one of
The most progressive places | know,
and the municipal sanitary work is
most efficiently done. mean all of
the work generally included as san
tary, although much of it is not
strictly so-cleaning streets, clean
ing our street cutters, removing
trash from streets and from yards,
no paper in the street, no garbage
left exposed, nc spilliDg of garbage
when it is emptied. The civic spirit
is good. IL is not only the health
officer and the mayor. The whole
town takes a pride in the appear
ance of the town, and not only
make, but keep it, not one of, but
the heatest aud cleanest town | have
ever seen anywhere. II looks like
town the dag after clean up day.,

Aged Lady Passes Away.

A long hfe full of good deeds
and heroic sacrifices was brought to
a peaceful close when Mrs. >t,nily.
Middleton died Wednesday, Decem-
Der Is, at the home of her daugh-
ter, Mrs. G. F. Kohlruss, in Angus
ia. While her strength was stead
lily failing under the weight of years.
yet her last illness was not of long
duration. Mrs. Middleton was sud-
denly stricken with apoplexy, /and
died in a short time. Her other
daughter, Mrs. A. A. Edmunds,
was also with her and ministered to
her wants very tenderly in her last
hours.
The life of this Gentle woman
was one that has but few parallels.
Not many years after her marriage,
her husband, the lamen ted William
Middleton, was taken. He died in
1862 while on a furlough, being at
the time a member of the Confeder.
ate army. Mr.. Middleton prior to
this, while mere boy, rendered
gallant service in the Mexican war.
Because of the distinguished service
of her husband, Mrs. Middleton re-
ceived pension from the national
government until her death. At
the age Of 26, she was lefta widow
with five daughters of tender years.
Notwithstanding the distressing
times which followed in the wake
of the Civil War, she held her prop
erty together with marked ability
and reared this large family. Be
fore her marriage to Mr.. Middleton
she was Miss Emily Prescott, being
the last member of the older gener-
alton of this honored family, This
noble woman was sweet spirited and
lovable in. disposition, scattering
sunshine and JOY whithersoever she
went. She made friends of all with
when she came in contact. Her
long useful life and the influence
that lives after her. are priceless
heritage to loved ones who feel so
keenly this severance of earthly
ties.
