COME IN cAND examine: OUR^ BIG STOCK FOR SALE BY O. L. ERWIN mix SUPPED. The Box Snpper at the Graded School last Monday night :was a success in most respects, and was an occasion long to be remembered by both old and yonng. Early in the evening the crowds from all points of the Qompass began to gather in, and by the time the real bnsinesa was nnder way, there was hardly standing room in the large anditorinm. A great deal of pains had been taken to decorate the building. The stairway was adorned with flowers and foliage, and the booths for selling various eatables and drinks had likewise a profusion of decoration, among which autumnal tints were conspicuouk At the head of the stairway was a candy booth, and another stood in a cor ner of the main hall. In the end of the entrance hall was a Japanese booth, appropriately decorated with yellow Chrysanthemums and'^hung with lai^iterns, where tea and Coffee were sold by pretty waitresses in semi-Japanese attire. The exercises began with some singing by the school children and a concert recitation by pupils of the primary department. Then came the real business of the even- ing—the selling out of a large num ber of boxes which contained things good to eat. T. W. Whitmire, the inimitable auctioneer, took charge at this stage in the proceediners, and he held on till every box was sold. Each box was supposed to contain the name of the young lady who prepared the food, and in her company the fortunate purchaser would eat what the box contained. The bidding at first was rather un- enthusiastic, as if most of the men had eaten supper before they came, but a few of the boxes bronght a brisk fli*e of bids, running the fig ures above the dollar mark. One box seemed to be an object of spe cial desire, and was knocked down at $5.00. The total amount brought by auctioneering the boxes was 133.60. Then two cakes—one for the most popular young lady, the other for the ugliest man—were sold by Supt. T. C. Henderson. The cakes went to the person who got the highest number of votes, each vote costing five cents. The young lady nominees were Miss Gertrude Lof- tis, Mrs. O. M. Carson, Mrs. A. H. King, Miss Joe Duckworth, Miss Wadie Duncan, and Miss Ruther ford. Miss Gertrude Loftis won with 147 votes. The ugly men can didates were Bullet Allison, Major Breese, T. H. Shipman, T. W. Whit mire, and T. C. Henderson. At one time the cake was declared award ed to T. H. Shipman, and had been delivered to him in the midst of much cheering and hand clapping, but it transpired that the friends of the coxmty superintendent had been busy, and suddenly made a stump of votes carrying that gen tleman to the highest point of per sonal beauty fame. The total amount of money taken in from the sale of boxes, cakes, candy, tea, etc., was about $70.00. The proceeds will be devoted to the school library, and to the purchase of works of art for the school rooms. T. M. Mitchell and T. B. Allison rendered special service in the con tribution of certain necessary ar ticles. FAMILY REUNION. Editor Sylvan Valley Mews: It was on the twelfth of October, 1908, when our family assembled at the old homestead to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the marria&re ot our father and mother, George W. Henderson to Milly L. Peek. We could not have wished for a more perfect day for tha occasion, and our enjoyment would have been complete but for the fact that two families were prevented from being present. Of the children, grand-children and great grand-children, together with the sons-in-law and daughters-in-law, forty three souls were present and twelve were absent, making, togeth er with the two old people, a family of fifty-seven souls. A beautiful table was spread amid the autum colors in the grove above the house. This was decorated with golden rod, and golden dalhias and chrysanthemums, and pyramids of golden russets. Photographer Glover of Brevard was present and before we were per mitted to help ourselves to the good things we must wait for the camera to wink. This was the sign that' the waiting was over. And now we turn our thoughts with grateful hearts to the giver of every good and perfect gift, while Z. I. Henderson invokes thie ble^ing of heaven upon the oocasioD. Then in regular picnip style the'table is reJiev^ of its load, as everyone seems grateful for the privilege oif helping to bear the bur- den. ^ After dinner the phot()grapher bad us for a while* and we were somi^- times primping and try^g to look pretty aB we faced the' camera, and sometimes standing off grinniog at those who were trying to^t on their good looks. And then, when the iricture taking was over, we were hither and thither children and grown folks and grand folks, all mingling merrily together until the breaking up. Then we went home with glad hearts, for we had a good time together. Reportee. — More tliau Enough Is Too Mucb. To maintain health, a mature man or woman needs just enough food to repair the waste and supply ener^ and body heat. The habitual con sumption of more food than is nec essary for these purposes, is the prime cause of stomach troublesv rheumatism and disorders of the kidneys. If troubled with indiges tion, revise your diet, let reason and not appetite control, and take a few doses of Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets and you will soon be all right again.

STARTED IN BUSINESS WITH ONLY ONE DOLLAR \ She is Now Independent and Cares Not How Bad Times Are—Can be Done by Others. A woman in North Carolina started in business with only one dollar and now has an income of more than 200 dollars a week. One day she saw an advertisement in a monthly story paper of “WICKE’S SWISS HERB TEA” stating that it was the BEST REM EDY ON THE MARKET for all Kidney, Liver and Stomach Trou bles, and while she had been trou bled with all these complaints for more than 7 years, she wrote to the manufacturer for a 25-oent package, which she used careful according to directions. After one week’s use she found that all her complaints had left her and she told the people, who had known her as a very sick lady, what she had used. All who saw the wonderful change in her condition, asked her to get them a a package, and she sent one dollar to the manufacturer of the Tea and asked him to send her as many pack ages as she could afford for the one dollar. She got 8 packages which she sold at 25 cents each, which gave her a profit of one dollar on her invest ment, and 25 sample packages, which she distributed to other peo ple and asked tliem to try this won derful Herb Tea. A week later she went to all these people again and asked them if they had tried the Tea and what they thought of it, and to her surprise she got an order for a package from every one of these, they all said “the Tea is wonderful.” She at once sent for 100 packages and kept on distributing samples and sold them all in a week’s time, then she sent for 500 packages, and now she has 50 other ladies and men working for her, selling “Wicke’s Swiss Herb Tea” from house to house, and North Carolina has never been in so nealthy condition as she is now; the call for a doctor is only in rare cases or acci dent. A druggist offered her the other day $10,000 for her agency, but she declined his offer. Anj^one who has a little push and energy can do as well as she, and while there are a few agencies still open, we advise all who want to build up an independent business to write to H. FELDSTEIN, 1375 Myr tle ave., Brooklyn, N. Y., and send him a money order for one or more dollars to secure the agency of their town. Write today if you want to build up your own business and be independent.
