for action. A woolen factory, a cot-
ton seed oil factory, a cotton factory,
a tannery and a boot and shoe fac-

Hon. J. F. White of Hartwell has
an old and curious relic. It is a sur-
veyor’s marking knife that was pre-
sented to Mr. White’s grandfather by
his father when he left Virginia ninety
years ago. It is undoubtedly over
100 years old, and is yet as good for

standing timidly and wisely close to the
door, “but we can’t pay you very much
for it, because we have printed it once
or twice ourselves, and the man who

smoke good tobacco, he finally adapted
the plan of hiring a man to smoke con¬
