FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS.

dens will be n failure.
Work on the addition to the hosiery I
mill is progressing nicely, and in a j

After n plensnnt and profitable term
at the State Normal School at Athens,
Miss Jennie Arnold has returned

The Orantvllle base ball team Is

There will be n Joint debate at this
place the latter part of June between
Orantville and Corinth. Orantvllle
will be represented by Messrs. R. O.
Jones, Marvin Banks and II. L. Cul
pepper;—Corinth by Messrs. John F.
Yarbrough, Loe Jackson and Wm.
Copeland. The subject for debate
will be—“Resolved, That the terri
tory wrested from the dominion of
Spain during the Spanish-American
war should be annexed to the United
States.” Orantville will have the af
firmative side of the question.
Our town has so many rigid ordi
nances thnt we deem it necessary to
mention a few of them in order to
put the public on notice, to-wit:
First is the anti-spit law, which Is
very essential to cleanliness, and is
being successfully enforced.
8econd iB the anti-chicken law,
which prohibits chickens from run
ning at large. If a cltir.cn allows his
chickens this privilege he is liable to
be arrested and llnod.
Third is the anti-trash law, which
prohibits waste of any kind from be
ing thrown on the afreets.
Fourth is the anti-ice law, which
prohibits the sale or even the delivery
of ice on Sunday. This last we are
not in favor of, because ice is badly
needed on Sunday.
Every effort is boing made to en
force these ordinances, and we would
■nggest that, to mnke a good job of
it, it mny be well to station a police
man at every corner. Fkkrh.

ST. CHARLES.
Dry weather yet prevails and cot
ton is dying, to the groat consterna
tion of the farmers.
Some of our more progressive far
mers are chopping cotton, while nil
are ns busy us can be and about up
with their work.
The ring of the hammer is heard
early nnd late these days. Ere long
we will have a commodious warehouse
here, which is much needed.
Messrs. Turner & Bingham, with
their saw-mill, are turning out a nice
lot of lumber. Several needed build
ings will bo erected here soon.
Our people were invited to the
academy last Sunday afternoon to en
joy nu old “Sacred Harp” singing.
Many were present, and from the
way they sang we judge that they
were filled with tho “spirit of song.”
Bro. “Ripples” missed a treat by not
attending. An appointment was
made for another siHging on the sec
ond Sunday evening in June, and we
hope Bro. “Ripples” nnd many others
will be with us. Everybody invited.
Don’t forget the date—June 11.
The music of the “Sacred Harp,”
while old, is good.
Severnl farmers have loBt horses
and mules in the last three weeks,
some of which were valuable animals.
The health of the community is
good, in fact—unusually so thus far
this season. There is not a case of
sickness in the community, so far as
we know.

TURIN.
Prof. Glass closed his school at this
place on Monday, 8th inst. The
school had a very successful terra.
Mrs. E. T. Peek, of SeDoia, wor
shipped in Turin last Sunday.
Mr. J. B. Walker lost a valuable
mule a few days ago, and Mr. John
Martin lost a fine horse. At this sea
son of the year stock need green or
moistened feed to keep them healthy.
Corn fed to liorRes or mules should be
soaked in salt water. If this were
done there would be no need of stock
powders.
The weather is hot and dry, and as
a consequence fnrmers complain of
the hard ground and poor stands of
cotton. Wheat and oats would be
much benefited by a shower just now,
also.
In a recent letter we gave a notice
of the death of Mr, II. E Applewhite,
but for Home reason it did not appear.
Presume it got lost. Bro. Applewhite
was a noble Christian gentleman, and
his denth is deeply deplored in this
section. *

Mr. L. T. Moses has been on the
sick list for several days.
Mr. Will Harris is the proud owner
of a milch cow that yields eight
pounds of butter each week, not in
cluding the quantity consumed by the
family. A record of 384 lbs. per year,
actually sold, is not bnd.
Cotton-chopping is occupying the
attention of the farmers just now.
An old farmer of our acquaintance
says this will be a good year to plant
bottom lands, as he predicts a dry
summer.
Our better half had new Irish pota
toes for dinner one dny this week, the
product of her garden. R. A. T.

On the Road
to recovery, the young woman who is
taking Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion. In maidenhood, womanhood,
wifehood and motherhood the “Pre
scription” is a supporting tonic and
nervine, nerve food or invigorator
that’s peculiarly adapted to her needs,
regulating and strengthening the sys
tem and curing the derangements of
the sex. Why is it so many women
owe their beauty to Dr. Pierce’s Fa
vorite Prescription? Because beauty
of form and face radiate from the
common center—health. The best
bodily condition results from good
food, fresh air and exercise, coupled
with the judicious use of the “Pre
scription.”
LONE OAK.
On Sunday afternoon, 7th inst., the
body of little Robert E., infant son of
Mr. and Mrs. Wal’er C. Loe, wnB
brought from their home near Green
ville for burial in Prospect cemetery.
Beautiful words of counsel and com
fort wore spoken by the pnstor, Rev.
J. E. England, and tender, consoling
music was rendered by the choir be
fore the lovely little corpse was
lowered to its last resting-place. Quite
a number of the neighbors of Mr. Lee
accompanied the bereaved parents
from their home, and the sympathy
of many in the community was at
tested * by their presence and the
numerous nnd pretty floral tokens
that covered the little casket. Among
the fi lends who helped to form the
sud procession on its way to Lone
Oak were Mr. and Mrs. Thomp
son Young, Mr. and Mrs. John John
son and Mr. Albert Paysinger, of
White Gak, Cowetn county.
On Sunday night, 7th inst., about
9 o’clock, came the nearest approach
to a storm thnt has yet visited our
community. The combination of
wind, rain and electricity were suf
ficient to alarm the timid, and did
considerable damage in the way of
blowing down trees. Among these
victims of the elements is numbered
the “lone oak” that stood at the junc
tion of the roads, and gave the name
of Lone Oak to the settlement here.
This fact invested the old tree with
almost historic interest, and its de
struction is naturally a matter of gen
eral regret. We learn that a cabin
containing several occupants, on the
place of Mr. John Phillips, between
Lone Oak and Hogansville, was
blown a considerable distance by the
storm Sunday night, yet nobody was
hurt. Subscriber.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
your water and let it stand twenty-
four hours: a sediment or settling in
dicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys; if it stains your linen it is
evidence of kidney trouble; too fre
quent desire to pass it or pain in the
back is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO IK).
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney
remedy, fulfills every wish in curing
rheumatism, pain in the back, kid
neys, liver, bladder and every part of
the urinary passages. It corrects
inability to hold water and scalding
pain in passing it, or bad effects fol
lowing use of liquor, wine or beer,
and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
timeB during the night. Ttie mild
and the extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. It
stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should
have the best. At druggists’, fifty
cents or one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and
a book that tells more about it, both
sent absolutely free by mail, if you
send your address to Dr. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. Y. When writ
ing be Bure and mention that you
read this generous offer in The Her
ald and Advertiser.
