There are two classes of gossip
aB, and both classes are genuine
naisances to society and an abom
inable evil in general, trushfully
says an exchange. One class de
libemtely lie and circulate lies.
The besmirching of reputations is
their delight. The other class,
hut litsle better, takes great de
light in delving in the past and
reminding the present generations
of all the forgotten faults and
foolish errors and mistakes made
by people who have long since
been redeemed to a life of honesty
and propriety. If all the gossips
were transported, the work of eal
vation would be a far easier task
than it 18 now.
About twenty years ago a young
man went to New York City with
a letter of ‘recommendation from
a county judge to the head of a
big law firm. Hisclothes appear
ed t¢ have been cut out with a
scythe and made in the dark. He
was given a job at $lO a week, and
the head of the firm said to his
partner: ‘“‘Try cuietly to make
thut young fellow get acquainted
with civilized attire as soon as
possible.”” Five years later the
reformed ruralist married his
chief employer’s daughter. His
name was Charles E. Hughes, and
is now governor of New York.
MAKES A LIVING.

adequate for his needs. He in
vested all the ready money he had
in eight gilt-and-gaudy popcorn
stands, with little engines to run
the poppers. The idea worked,
and before long he branched out
to Sar Antonio. He soon worked
ap a baby trust, which brought
bim in an income of % 000 a vear.
BACON-DANIELL.
Wednesday, Feb. stb, at half
past 1 o’clock in the afternoon, at
the home of the bride, Miss Olivia
Bacon, 11 Seneca, S. C., was mar
ried to Mr, James J. Daniell, of
Marietta, Ga. The wedding was a
large one, including the attend
acce of many relatives and friends,
the arrangement of which was
perfect in every detail. The en
tire lower floor was used, the din
ing room, ceremony room and
parlor being c:nnected. The
guests were met by Mr. G. W,
Gignilliat and invited into the
parler, where they were received
by Mr. and Mrs. O. F. Bacon,
Miss Fmily Bacon and Norman
‘Bacon, who stood in line, after
which each guest registered, the
uutographs being preserved for
the bride’s book, In this room
the elegant presents were display
ed, which the guests viewed at
}leisure, and were then invited into
the ceremony room. The desora
tions here were elaborate, the col
or socheme, red, white and green,
sprevailing throughout the house.
g‘he glare of day was shut out by
drawn shades, and soft, mellow
lights from many candles and
shaded lamps, filled the apart
ments. The ceremony room was
a picture in its dress of garlands
of green, which festooned the
walls, 4L3 occasional use of bells
proving a beautiful relief to the
stretch of green. Immediately be
fore the ceremony, Mims May
Hamilton sang, ‘‘Oh, Promi®
Me,"”” after which the firss note of
Lohengrin’s weldding mareh an
nouneed the coming of the bridal
procession. Leading from oppo
site doors, Mrs. Lloid Trimmier,
a 8 matren of honor, and Miws
Maud Faater, of Marietts, Misses
Nina and Norma Gignilliats, as
bridesmaids, entered by twes,
cromsing in frons of the improvised
altar, and nbudin’ in & semi
circle. The maid-of-honor, Mis
Lala Gignillias, who was regml in
a costume of white chiffon over
silk, came nexts, bearing literally
an armful of exquisite, red carns
tions. She was immediately fol
lowed by the bride, who enternd
on the arm of her father, the
groom, with his best man, J. Hil
ton Holmes, entering simultane
ously from the opposite door, lis
tle Lia Eleanor Trimmier, as
flower girl, strewing the pathway
of the bride with white carnations,
The Yridal eouple stood munder
an immenss hell formed of gresn,
which was bordered by whits rosss,
and which was suspended from an
arch by white ribbons, the arch
being covered with evergreens and
the handsomest of white romes.
Suspended by invisible wires were
‘the initials B, and D., which were
strikingly effective in tHeir ivory
whiteness. The couplé faced the
officiating minister, Rev. M. R.
Kirkpatrick, which eompleted the
circle, the picture on the whole
being one of loveliness.
The bride herself was queenly in
& costume of white faillie, which
with the broad girdle, presentsd
the princess effect, so becaming
the stately style of the wearer.
The sulle veil enveloped the bride
completely and was held in place
by sprays of lillies of the valley
At her throat a loop of pearls was
worn the gift of the groom; the
fan, a rare bit of ivory, having
descended from the bride’s greas
grandmother and the handker
chief, of real duchesse lace, having
been used by the bride’s mother
on a similar occasion. The bride
carried an immerse bouquet of
bride’s roses with a shower of lil
lies of the valley.
The bridesmaids wore white or
gandie and garried immense bou
quets of white carnations.
The ceremony of the Presbyte
rian Church was used, which was
beautiful in ivs simplicity, the
ring service being effectively and
impressively introduced.
After luncheon the bride tossed
her bouquet, which was caught by
Mise Norma Gignilliat, after which
the bridal party left on the South
ern veetibule for an extensive wed
ding journey, which will include
points in Florida and Cuba. Upen
their return, they will be at home
to their friends in Marietta, Ga.
The bride’s going-away gown
was a biscuit-colored panama,
with hat, gloves and shoes to
match, the costume being of ad
vanced spring style, the profusion
of spring flowers characterizing the
style of the dainty chapeau.—
Keowee (8. C.) Courier.
Mr. Daniell holds a responsible
position with the Marietta Knit
ting Co., and has the confidence
and esteem of our people as a
hightoned, Christian gentleman.
His bride is one of the purest and
most lovable of her sex. Their
host of friends here extend to
them their best wishes for happi
ness and prosperity.

~ THE LOCAL PAPER. :
There ie no interest so closely
identified with the community as
the local paper. It has avital in
terest in the advancement of ev
ery interest of the town. It re
joices to know that every busiuness
is prosperous. It records w'th
satiefaction every achievement of
succese in the town.
When the shadow of death falls
athwart your threshold, with ten
der sympathy your local paper
records the solemn fact. When
the young people marry, it ie the
local paper that merrily peals the
wedding bells. When your friends
come and go, It. is the local paper
that tells it to the world that you
have friends. What do you owe to
the local paper?
Ist. First subscribe for it,
There ought not to be a home in
the community where ii is not
read.
2d. Help the editors to get the
news. When you hear of people
coming and going, tell them of it.
They will appreciate it. It will
help the paper and heip you.—
Rockmart Courier.
Say, do youa know the kind of
fellow who's just to the world’s
mind? The kind the world can’t
lose? The kind that folks enthuse
over and take off their hats to?
Why, it’s the man who doas? He’s
the fellow! Not the fellow whowe
grandpa got there; not the fellow
who would if he eculd; not the
gentleman who’s going $o some
day; but the gentleman who does,
now, to-day. No sitéing aromnd
waiting, abous him; no expeeting
something to turn mp. No, sir!
He enlls the tmrn and turns 'em;
he takes off his eont and dossn’s
care if he starts a litsle sweas; he
dosen’s need a big, bmss-buttoned
eoppar to tell him t 0 move oun; he
kesps the procession humping to
kesp up with him; he is hustle
from his feet mp and from his
head down; he is nos only ir the
push, but he is the push—the
whole thing; and say, the way he
makes things come and business
hum, is & caution; the way the
world takes that fellow up and is
good to him, makes your heart
glad; he’s all righs, be is; he
greases the whesls of progress and
kesps the world spinniag around.

Eight thousand dollars, receut
ly paid by Daniel W. Field, a
Brocton shoe manufacturer and
farmer, for a meek-eyed, pale
faced, but industrious cow, makes
thia acquisition to Mr, Field’s
herd of full-blooded s&tock the
highest priced bovine in the Uni
ted States.
And Pontiac Rag Apple, this
enphoniously dubbed Hulstein-
Friesian, although she has been in
the hands of her present owner
only a month, has already re
turned $4,000 or one-half the price
paid for her, a sum agreed for her
next calf, which has already been
sold to a New York breeder of
fancy stock.
In addition to having immedi
ately halved ber cost, this wonder
ful animsal holds the second high
est record for the amount of milk
and butter produced by any one
cow in the world.
It is expected Ly her present
owner that she will reach the
champicn producing mark during
the next year. She is at present
lees than 5 years old.
