—At last Harlem is luxuriating in
chickens and vegetables.
—Beautiful weather for saving and
housing the fearfully small o.it crop.
Stop at Dr. Peeples’ and ask for

—Tavlcr’s the best Cologne on the

—A house full' of healthy, hearty
children presided over by Christian
parents is a heaven on earth, but
home is anything but pleasant when j
full of sick fretful children. Provide
them with White’s Cream Vermifuge
which never tails when used accord
ing to directions for the expulsion of
worms. This remedy is the best ever
offered the public. It moves the
worms sure as death.
—Some of our roads need attention,

—The prayer meeting at the Metho

—Crops along the public road lead

pecially the corn crops.
—Try a bottle of Taylor’s Cologne
at Dr. Peeples’ drug store, and you

—Our worthy friend, Mr. F. H.

—Tablet’s Buckeye Pile Ointment
is so well known that only a word as
a reminder is necessary. No one who
has suffered with Piles needs to be
told more than once that Tablet's
Buckeye Pile Ointment is positively
a permanent cure for that harassing
disease. The incredulous are asked
to give it one trial and be convinced
that this incomparable remedy is all
that is claimed.
Mr. Mai. Faircloth who has been
sick for several days, is getting along
as well as could be expected.
—What is home without the
' children ? Sod indeed without their
merry voices and endear.ng ways. Io
endeavor to keep them in health is a
pleasant duty, and a dose of \\ bite s
’ Cream Vermifuge administered when
needed never fails to produce the de
sired effect, and a lot of ugly NA orms
is expelled; which, if allowed to re
i main would cause the child untold
1 suffering.

One of our boys has been to Co
lumbia and came back repeating the
above lines and claims that his girl
I gave them to him. That means busi- [
ness don’t it ?
Little Phyllis vjas quite sick lust
week, and thinking a change would
i benefit her, we went to Columbia,
' therefore did not send in any dole,
j but enjoyed those from the other cor
sespondonts very much indeed.
We have had hard rains for a week
I past and farmers are working their
I crops rapidly to keep the grass buck.
: I have never seen better crops than
we have in this community now. One
of our boys thinks he will have to use
\ a ladder to pull his fodder.
The little Jew has become tin
' quintessence of politeness. 'The way
be can bold a parasol over a lady is
admirable. Just ask him how far it
is from his home to Thomson.
Dulcie is with us, and every one is
happy. Don’t we eat fried chicken
and blackberry pie though? After
we have finished a hearty meal we
’ put up some for “ 'tween times.”
Pete came up Sunday night and
his hair was clipped so closely Dulcie
did not recognize him until he drew
a long breath and said, “Ah me,
keeping bachelor’s ball is such a
trouble.” I hope be can persuade
Dulcie to rem ’in with uh, but am
afraid Dick is ahead of him, for he
has refused to shave his sidelers since
she has admired them.
John S is like the Irishman’s flea,
I “when you think be is dar he in some
