Scherck is sick this week. The sick list is rather large this week. Dr. Walter Weathersby of Fair River, was in town last Thursday. Mr. R. B. Dale of Hebron paid our town a flyling visit last Friday. We are sorry to learn that Miss Annie Beal, of this county, is quite ill. Mr. E. L. Jones brought us in the first open bole of cotton last Monday morning. We are pained to chronicle the death of Mrs. Samuel Herrington, which occurred at her home about eight miles above this place last Monday afternoon. Rev. James R. Cason, Opalusus, La., writes, "I have used "Owen's Pink Mixture" in bowel disorders with excellent results. It never failed with our baby in disorders of this class." For sale by H. S. Scherck. PROVIDENCE CAMP MEETING We will have to bore our readers with another one of our trips, but if they will be patient, we will endeavor to make it as short and interesting as possible. The writer is a Baptist, but he never fails to attned the meetings of other denominations when the opportunity presents itself, and we hope we know ourself when we say we take just as much interst in their welfare as the biggest member in the "amen" corner. Notwithstanding this fact, and that we have been to a great many religious gatherings in our day and time, yet, never before (we are ashamed to own it) had we attended a real, live camp meeting, and this one thereby possessed a double interest for us. Circumstances were always such, that whenever one would be held anywhere within reach of us, that it would be next to impossible for us to leave home, but this time we just determined to drop everything and go, and we are glad we did.
