Read the. Christmas' suggestionsmade in this issue by the Norris Mil-linery Company of Johnston. At thispopular store you can select some-
thing that will be of real service as
well as being beautiful.The Christmas season is a home-

Although everything points at thistime to this being a very wet Christ-mas yet we hope that in other re-
spects it will be a very "dry" one.
Nothing is more out of accord withthe true .spirit of Christmas thandrunkenness and rowdyism. We be-lieve however that Edgefield will'hayethis year a Christmas of unusual so£berness. May it be so!

Death of Mrs. Arthur Branson.About seven o'clock last night the
angel of death entered the home ofMr. Arthur Brunson and bore awaythe spirit of his beloved wife, who,before their marriage, was Miss Ber-tha Speights of Walterboro, a sisterof Mrs. E. H. Folk. Mrs. Brunson had.been a great sufferer for more thana year and although Mr. Brunson hadcarried her to the hospitals in Augusta several times for special treatmentno relief could be found. In fact,some time ago loved ones were madeto realize that it was only a matterof time before death would relieveMrs. Brunson of her suffering, butthe end was not expected at this time,consequently the announcement ofher death was a great shock to herfriends.
Although Mrs. Brunson was notvery intimately known by a largenumber of people, for she remainedclose at home finding her chief joyin making the home comfortable, at-tractive and happy, for her lovedones, yet she was genuinely 'belovedby many friends, those appreciatingher superior qualities and real worthmost who knew her best. Warm-heartsed, generous and unselfish almost tela fault, Mrs. Brunson never failed tOfwin the esteem and affection of those';with whom she came in contact. SheVwas a devout Christian, a member ofthe First Baptist church.
Besides her devoted husband, Mrs.Brunson leaves two daughters, Mrs'.Lydia Thompson, who has been withher mother for some time affection1*ately ministering to her, and Kate,a little daughter four years old, andtwo sons, S. A. Brunson, Jr., who jjs'in the navy, and Isaac Brunson. TheAdvertiser extends sincere sympathyto these bereaved friends.The funeral and interment will
