Next Sunday, 18th, has been desig-

every church member will be present
at the service and that all interested
will attend.
Rev. David Kellar has gone to at

Not only the members of the Meth
odist church, but the entire Gown
hopes that the conference will send
Mr.. Kellar back again, for he is held
in love and esteem by all.
1t is great pleasure to every one
to see DR.. S. G. Mobley out again.
He was confined to the house about
two and half months, but he now
looks hale and hearty.

Mrs. Jones returned on Friday
evening from the Baptist Hospital,
with her little daughter, Natalie, who
was carried there for treatment fol-
lowing severe attack of typhoid
pneumonia. After an X-ray it as
found that the symptoms for which
she was being treated had cleared
up and the physician felt that she
could be safely carried home. Every
one hopes that the little girl will soon
begin to improve.
The little son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Pruitt, VINO is at the Baptist Hos
pital is beginning to improve. The
child was paralyzed from extreme
weakness following an attack of ty-
phoid fever, and hospital treatment
was the last resort to save the life.
The restoration is considered almost
a miracle.
Mr.. T. J. Langston was taken quite
i'll onlast Thursday while he was talk
ing to some friends on the street.
The attack came suddenly and as if
from paralysis, he fell to the ground.
He is much improved and is able to
be up.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Whitaker had
the misfortune to lose their home by
fire on Friday evening. They are
now living in Columbia, near Shan
don. Both were out in the yard at
tending to the feeding of the chick
ems and stock, and the flames burst
ing through the kitchen roof was the
sight that met their eyes as they
started to the house. Only small
part of the household effects were
saved.
Prof. W. j. Mccarthy of Aiken was
a visitor here the latter part OF tne
week.
Mrs. w. D.. Woodward went to
Aiken last week to visit relatives.
Mr.. Bob Stillwell of the Harmony
section took a tablet of bichloride of
mercury thinking it was aspirin. This
was on Wednesday, and as soon. as
the mistake was discovered physi-
clans were sent for and every effort
made to counteract the poison. This
poison generally proves fatal, the
victim living about eight or ten days.
The occurrence is most deplorable
one, and the friends of Mr.. Stillwell
are hoping that yet the physicians
may find some means of. saving his
life.
