Ttev. Dr. Frierson will preach in tbeFlat Rock Presbyterian Church next Sun¬day morning, at 11 o'clock, and we are re¬

quested to extend an invitation to thepeople generally of that section to attendthe services. Recently wo had the pleas¬ure of visiting this place, which is one ofthe prettiest Church sites in the County,and wero impressed with the recent im¬provements made there. Flat Rock isnumbered among the oldest Churches ofthe County, and until a year or two agowas a union Church, being occupied byboth the Presbyterian and Baptist denom¬inations. The building had begun toshow the effects of time, and when it wasproposed to rebuild it, the Baptist congre¬gation decided to erect a separate Churchbuilding, and, as a monument to their en¬

ergy, they now have a neat house of wor¬

ship near the old building. This inspiredthe Presbyterians to do something, and,though weak in numbers, they went towork and have made a very neat and sub¬stantial house of worship out of the oldbuilding. The service next Sunday willbe the first held in the remodeled build¬ing. Both denominations aro workingharmoniously together, and aro perhapsin a position now to do better work thanover before in tho Lord's vinoyard. Thecitizens ofthat section have recently builta substantial school house, and have en¬

gaged Mr. R. E. Nicholson to toach an

eight-months school. We congratulatethe people of Flat Rock, and urge them tocontinue their good work.

It has been quite a month now, Mr. Ed¬itor, since I have contributed to your val¬uable paper. During the last few weeksof cold, rainy weather, like almost everyother person to be met in thi3 section, Iwas visited by la grippe, and consequentlyI haven't felt much like writing, but inthis issue I hope to give the many read¬ers of the Intelligencer the Newell dotsin full, provided this peu will be so kindas to write without the annoying, trouble¬some way it has learned of wanting towrite cross-legged all the time. I think ifit will obey the orders of my thumb andforefinger the ink bottle will surely havemanners enough to keep his seat.

It has rained every Tuesday this year.You can guess at about what kind of a fixour roads are in.There is a great deal of sicknsss in this

community.We are sorry to note tho illness of one

of our oldest and most highly respectedcitizens, Mr. Elihu Wigington. However,we hope that he may soon recover.One of the boys, who has been com¬

plaining of being sick, says people are

badly mistaken when they tell him he istaking the grippe. He says just reversethe thing, the grippe is trying to take him.Crazy quilting and Kensington art

painting is becoming quite fashionableamong the ladies of this vicinity.Miss Maggie Pickens, of Equality, is

visiting her grandfather and grandmother,Mr. and Mrs. E. Wigington, at Newell.The Newell agent reports a fine sale of

"Morse's Indian Root" and "AllianceLiver Pills." They are given up to be thotwo best pills ou the market.The cry of "hard times" is still abroad

in our land. Those that have tried it sayif a man will mix faith with the AlliancePills they will work off all future troubles,make him dream the name of the fertil¬izers it would be most profitable for himto' use under his crops this year, howmany acres he should plant in cotton, howmuch more interesting it would be to himto read the newspapers if he would alwayskeep his subscription paid up, bow muchbetter he would prosper if he wouldattend Sunday School n. «rly, what a

pleasure it is to a man 1.» .tell the truthand say he has always paid his honest andjust dfbt?, how much more corn he wouldniakt if bo would plant it on his best laud,instead of planting it on the quarters ofthe moon, and aftho next Presidentialelection tho man he should vote for Presi¬dent. Of course there a few thingsthat these pilis won't do, such as makinga lazy man happy, bringing back any¬thing that is lost, or growing hair on a

china door-kuob. But if you are a hardworking man, and want to live a long andhappy life I would iusitt ou you to go or

send immediately and get a box of thesepills. Don't forget the name, "AllianceLiver Pills." They ouly cost fifteen cents

per box.In this vicinity

We don'tknow just how to write a letter to you,Mr. Editor, but think we ought to saysomething about the weather here. Ododay it rains, the next it turns warm, thatnight it snows, next morning it's balmy,followed in tho afternoon by a perfectstorm.yea, cyclone.of la grippe. Theonly man in our town enjoying theweather is our Doctor. He thinks, self-gratulatingly, '"Tis an ill breezo thatblows no one good."Our farmers have not lost heart, not¬

withstanding the hard times, the low priceof cotton, and the bad weather. Some ofthem are still holding cotton for betterprices. They have resolved to bring bet¬ter times by diversifying their crops.Our Alliance meets every second Satur¬

Tho new German artillery, whichwill shortly be introduced, is said to botho most tcrriblo war instrument ever

produced. Experiments mado at tho

Intcrbogkranges deeply impressed Lho

experts, the Kaiser being present. Thefirst sho!, >¦ red at a target placed fiftypaces from a wood, missed tho target,but ploughed its way through tho wood

1,500 feet. The splinters of a shell burst

by the now powder over a circle of 000feet. A shell fired at an enormous tar¬

get, constructed by tho Emperor'sordorscovered it with tens of thousands ofholes. A battery of tho new artillerywould, it is assured, annihilate an entiredivision, once the range was found.
