Consumption The only kind of consumption to fear is " neglected consumption." People are learning that consumption is a curable disease. It is neglected consumption that is so often incurable.

A Girl's Crime. Alleged to Have Thrown Her New Born Baby in Rocky Branch. The Columbia State, March 6th. Two email boys whil? playing yesterday morning about 7 o'clock, near Rocky branch, a amall stream which runs in the southern part of the city, just outside the corporate limits, made a gruesome discovery. The body of a male infant was seen lying in the shallnwR near nnenf the hanks. The coroner and the officers of the law were 6ummoDed aud went at once to the scene. A thorough investigation wa9 made and Lou Spradley, a joung woman of about 21 years of age, was closely questioned. The girl told several versions of the affair. She had become the mother of a child on Friday night, it is alleged, and it was said yesterday that she had confessed that it was her infant which was found in the branch. She was taken to the county jail and made as comfortable as possiole on account of her peculiar condition. Her father also told several different stories and was placed in the jail. The infant's body was taken to Connelly's undertaking establishment, and an autopsy by Drs. Fishburne and Coward revealed the fact that it was not still born. Jimmie McMeehan, a young man mk/Nm tkn tnrvmon mnntinnn/i in r?r\n_ nection with the alleged crime, is held at the jail until the matter is fully investigated.
