has been ?D Edgefield for several
days, givi?g the voters an oppor
tunity to see what manner of man
he is. Mr. Toole has represented'
Aiken county iu the legislature
for pix years, having been all the
while a zealous champion ot the
rights of the masses. Just as he
has served his constituents.faith
fully in the House, so will he
seive them in the national Con
gress should the poople commis
sion him.
Since embarking in the insur
ance business, something more
than a year ago, Mr. W. S. Cog-1
burn has been phenomenally suc
cessful. While he has in the past
represented one of the leading
companies in the county, yet after
due consideration Mr. Cogburn
has severed bis connection with
this company and has aooepted

Very Disastrous Firet
About 9 o'olook ou Thursday
evening last fire was discovered iii
the rear end of the shoe store of.
Messrs. Cobb ? Seal. It started
apparently in the basement bub
had reached the second lloor be
fore discovered, which m.ade it
impossible to save the building or
its contents.
From the very outset' it was
evident that the store of Mr. W.
W. Adams was doomed. l?eady and
willing hands, as soou aVhear
rived aud opened the doors, set
about to 6ave the stook of mer
chandise. Considerable goods were
saved hut the great bulk, in
eluding about $2,000 worth of bag
ging which was stored in the cel
lar, was devoured by the roeroi
h:es flames.
Through very heroic efforts the
stores of Messrs. JoneB ?1 Son and
J. W. Peak were saved. So great
was the danger that Mr. Peak had
the major portion of hi. stock re
moved.
Messrs Cobb & Seal had $1,000
each on their stock and building..
Mr. W. W. Adams carried $3,000
on the building aud $3,000 on his
stock,which was estimated, to be
worth $8,000. Mr. Peak also sus
tained considerable damage which
was covered by iusuracoe.
.Mr. Adams moved the goods
that ho saved into the building
formerly occupied by . the diepe?
s'ary, which he w ? H: oe cu pyrrrrr: Hic-f

A Feast at The County Home.
(Communicated.)
On Friday of last week, just
before the noon hour, about a half
dozen buggies, occupied by the
ladies, of the Edgefield Literary
Club, .with baskets laden with
good things to eat, made their
way to tho County Home. There
they Bpread tables with the very
best 'of picnic dinners, Large (
plates heaped up and running
over were filled with fried'chicken,
ham,: sandwiches, cakes, pies
salads, pickles, etc, and given to
each inmate. As they finished
their, dinner-s aud began returning
to 'their hqmes, eaoh plate wae
replenished with enough for au- (
other meal, A feagt still remained
aud.of this the ladies, with Mr. 1
and'Mrs. Scurry and t'jeir chil
dren, partook. Mrs, Sourry had
added a nice diuuer to the feast
and Mr. Scurry, brought iu a ,
l?rge basket of delightful peaohes ,
aud the . best oold water. After ?
th?se had all feasted there still ?
remained what Mr. Scurry said
would save their cooking any- ,
tu'irig.for more than another meal.
The organ had been placed near ,
the tables in a shady spot, and ,
after dipper the ladies sang some ,
of the good old hymus, and Rev. ,
Tl P. BurgesB made a very appro- ,
priate talk to all who were present.
The local W. C. T. U.' had con
tributed a bouquet of flowers with
a acripkre verse attached, to ouch
inmate. Tb,ese were read by Mr.
Burgess as the bouquets ware pre
sented. There were seven afflicted
ones who could uot corne out oJ
their homes. A* I of these were
visited, aud I be little organ was
transported to every home aud 1
hymus were sung.
Mr. Scurry was highly eom
.mended by eyery oue (Vr hi-3 effi
cient manngemeut and bis kindly
interest in the welfare of all those
at the home. The premises looked
so neat and clean, aDd those who
live there seemed so contented
and happy, that the ladies really ,
enjoyed the day very much, and 1
said, as they bade Mr. and Mrs. <
Scurry goodbye, that they wauted j
to come out again aud spend just ,
such another day. The world is 1
blind to the myriad opportunities j
for service. "The poor ye have J
always with you."
Letter to Jas. Martin.
Dear Sir: Have you found this ?
out? You need lesB of Devoe lead- |
aud-ziuc for a job than of any- <
thing else: les9 gallons; less mon- '.
ey. j
M. A. Thomas, painter, Lynch- ?
burg, Va, has fouud it out; he t
writes: "The'first job I did with \
your.paint I.estimated 37 gallons; ;
?ajljj[ gallons left over. Since
trienT'have~not: used - any other,
kind of paint but Devoe lead-and- :
aiuc; I reoommend it to all my j
customers. When I commence a .
job, I tack up card reading as fol
lows: M. A. Thomas, contractor;
Devoe Paint."
Putting it on costs two or three
times as much as the paint. Have
you fouud this out? You can paint
Devoe in less time: less time;
less money.
Have you found thia out? Devoe
wears longer than anything else.
You don't object to long time
between jobs. Your customer likes
it. And you like what he likes. It
keeps your customers.
Yours truly,

High Campaign Assessments?
Candidatee are sometimes dis
posed to think that the campaign
assessments in this county are just
a bit high, but compared with
others the assessments in Edge
field are very low. The executive
oommittee of Dorchester county
recently made the following exor
bitant assessments: Candidates
for Treasurer, $40; Auditor, $40;
Supervisor, $30; Supt. of Educa
tion, $30; Representatives, $20;
County Commissioner, $20, and
Magistrate $10. Assessments in
thia county are usually not one
fourth as great.

feel that much credit is due tho
jolored people of tue town, at
such a time, for they always ren

Women as Well as Men
Are Made Miserable by
Kidney* Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis
:ourages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor
and cheerfulness soon
disappear when the kid
neys are out of order
or diseased.
Kidney trouble has
become so prevalent
that it is not uncommon
for a child to be born
afflicted with weak kid
neys. If the child urin
ates too often, if the
irlne scalds the flesh, or if, when the child
.eaches an age when it should be able to
;ontrol the passage, it is yet afflicted with
aed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of
:he difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
:hesa Important organs. This unpleasant
?rouble is due to a diseased condition of the
Kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
V/omen as well as men are made mis
erable with kidney and bladder trouble,

completely broken up in one or
two days lime. The first symptoms
of a cold aie a dry, loud cough, a
profuse water}' discharge from the
nose, and a thin "white -coating.
tbe tongue. Wheu Chamberlain's
cough remedy is taken every hour
on the first appearance of theee
symptoms, it counteracts the
effect of the cold and restores the
system to a healthv condition'
within a day or two. For sale by
