FOR THE THOUGHTFUL.
Ram's Horn.
Fine words in a tombstone do
not mean anything in heaven.
There isn't ? grain of faith in
the prayer that doesn't look for an |
answer.
Ppople who blow their own horni
seldom furnish . good music for
other folks.
On God's scales a poor man's
best and a rich man's best balance
each other.
Every man who does not believe
in a hell, has material enough in
his heart to start one. .
Faith is the sacrifice of the un
derstanding to God; repentance
the'sacrifice of the will.
Kindness is a tender considera
tion-towards every living thing ?
which God has created.
The devil is still getting people
every day, by making them believe
the judgment day is a long ways
off.
Honesty is the straight forward
performance of every duty and
every action as conscience dic
tates.
. The man who beginB by walking
ann in arm with the devils will
soon have -to carry him on his
~ shoulders.
A rose tree that does not bloom
is of no use in a garden. A vine
that bears no grapes is of no use
in a vineyard.
Courage is cool headed strength
of will and purposes, ready, for
dangers and difficulties whatever
they may be.
If you could look into the hearts j
of some men for twenty-four hours,
you wouldn't wonder that they are
down on the Bible.
Truth is like a clear mirror,
which when it is not cracked or
tampered with, gives a true image;
but when it is, distorts and gives ? i
a wrong expression to the object
reflected.
Home with love in it, is a kind j
of paradise. I suppose with love
out of it home is a kind of pan
demonium. The sweetest hours of
life are those when' the heart is
full of love, and those hours are
almost as sweet in the recollection
as in the present experience. In
the day and night, and in the
times of revery we recall every look,
every gestare, every word by which
loy 9 was conferred to us, and I
suppose . eveu in extreme old ago,
"" tho heart never forgets the scenes.j.
and the memories of loves young
dream. Such is the heart of man.
Ingratitude.
Public men aretargets to be
shot at, belied, pursued, misinter
preted. I was surprised to read
what Macaulay wrote in one of his
intense sentence after all his
bright carreer in the English
Parlianment and after. being
renowned the world over bji all
who could admire fine writing and
great thought-Macaulay says :
"Every friendship which a man
may have becomes precarious as
soon as he engages in politics."
Daniel "Webster, after his wonder
ful career and in the close of his
lifo, writes : "If I were to live my
life over agrin, with my present
experience, I would under no con
sideration allow myself to enter
-public life. The man who serves
the public most faithfully
receives no adequate raward.
In my own history those acts
which have been before God most
disinterested, and the least stained
by selfish considerations have
been precisely those for which I
have beeu most freely abused. No,
no, have nothing to do with poli
tics. Sell your iron, eat the bread
of independence, support your
family with the rewarde of honest
toil, do your duty as a private
citizen to your country, but let
politics alone. It is a hard life
a thankless life. I have had in
tne course of my political life,
which is not a short one, my full
share of ingratitude, but the un
kindest cut of all, the shaft that
has sunk the deepest in my heart,
has been the refusal of this ad
ministration to grant my request
foran office of small pecuniary
consideration for my son." That
is the testimony of a man who
ought to know. My fri ends, better
stay down than be shot down. He
who has a good occupation, a good
home, good character, a good field
good [afield of usefulness and a
good hope in Jesus Christ has all
that worth having-Ocouee News.
You can never have a really good
complexion until the impurity is
cleased ' from your blood. What
you need is a thorough course of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which is abso
lutely free from all harmful in
gredients*, and therefore, perfectly j
safe.
Sidney Smith wrote to a friend
"I have seven or eight complaints,
but in all other respects I am
perfectly well."
When you try to. be good, try to
be good for something.

THE Trustees announce to the pub
lic that this school will open on
Monday, Sept. 4,1893,
and continne ten months, forty weeks,
with a recess of one week at Christ
mas. There will be three departments,
each carefully graded :
The Primary, embracing 2 years.
The Intermediate, embracing 4 years.
The Academic, embracing 4 years.
Provision is also made for Music and
Art Departments, under competent
teachers. Arrangements for studies
higher than the Academic will be made
hereafter, if it be deemed best to do so.
The rates of tuition will be as follows :
In the Primary Department, first
and second years, per month.. $ 1.00
In the Intermediate Department,
1st and 2nd years, per month..
In the Intermediate Department
3rd and 4th years, per month..
In the Academic Department, 1st
and 2nd years, per month. 3.00
In the Academic Department, 3rd
and 4th years, per month. 4.00
In the Music Department, per
month. 4.00
In the Art Department, per
month. 3.00
From these charges will be deduct
ed the pro rata amount allowed for
each pupil from the public school fund.
The trustees have committed this
school to the management of
Dr. -L R. GWALTNEY.
He will be aided in each department
by competent teachers. It will be seen
that the basis of financial support
which has been in operation for sev
eral years has been abandoned, the
trustees having fully decided that it
is better to have fixed rates of tuition
for all pupils. If the citizens of Edge
field will heartily standby "The In
stitute," they will have a good school
in which they may take a commenda
ble pride. The Principal is well known.
He returns to Edgefield to become the
pastor of the Baptist Church, and to
give his matured experience to the
work of educating our boys and girls.
Good board can be had for $S to $10
per month.

PATENTS,
For Inventions Procured by the
PRESS CLAIM COMPANY,
Equal with the interest of those having claims against the Gov
ernment is that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit ef v?lua
Lle inventions because of the incompetency or inattention of the at
torneys employed to obtain their patents. Too much care cannot be
exercised in employing competent and reliable solicitors to procure
patents, for the value of a patent depends greatly, if not entirely, upon
the care and skill of the attorney.
With the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless
attorneys, and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid
patents, THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY has retained counsel
expert in patent practice, and is therefore prepared-to
Obtain Patents, Conduct Interferences, Make Special Examinations,
[Prosecute Rejected Cases, Register Trade-Marks
and Copyrights, Rer.ler Opinions as to Scope
and Validity of i-atents, Prosecute and
Defend Infringement Suits, etc]
If you have an invention on hind, send THE PRESS CLAIMS
COMPANY a sketch or photograph thereof, together with abrief de
scription of the important features, and you will at once be advised
as to the best course to pursue. Models are not necessary
unless the invention is of a complicated nature. If others are infring
ing on your rights, or if you are charged with infringement by others,
submit the matter to us for a reliable OPINION before acting on the
matter.
