t 6 THE PROHI1IITION LAW. Anderson Mail. Now that tho people of the state have voted for prohibition by such a decided majority, it is to be hoped that those who were opposed to prohibition will accept the result in good faith and will co-operate in the enforcement of the law. This is a democratic state, and the fundamental principle of democracy ts the rule of the majority. Prohibition won by a majority of more than two to one and the majority would have been larger if it had not been for the importation of speakers from outside the state. There can be no doubt of tho fact that the great majority of the people of the state want prohibition, and they should have it. Whiskey has been an issue in South Carolina for more than twenty years. It lias been an issue in every campaign and it has been discussed in nearly every session of the legislature during that time, and this has resulted in 1 ^eping other and perhaps more important measures in the background. There are many thing* that should have been accomplished which have been put aside or ignored because of the everlasting discussion of the whiskey question. Now let us put it aside for a whiT. and give our attention to other things. Moreover, the prohibition law deserves a fair test. It cannot get a fair test under two or three years, the least. Let us all try to enforce it, and then, if we see that it is not gooil for its. we < in repeal it. lint it must he tried out. Thos wii < begin at once an agitat' >11 f >r it s repeal w " ni>f : > :: ;' ' in 1 v. or to the rest of inr ;> ople i " tie state. If they will help for a whi" in the enforcement of the law. and it is then (lcmitiistriiloil that the la is not good for us. they will have plenty of help in due season in the effort to get it repealed. Ilut a campaign of this kind star<ed too soon cannot possibly do any good and will only do harm. Let us have, for a while at least, peace on the liquor question. Carry'ng It Too Far. An agreeable disposition is .a nlco thing, but some people are so easj to get along with that it's no fun to get along with them.

Everybody is | collecting all the old woolen goods I they can find in their houses aiulj , shipping to the committees, who sena ' them to the mills to be remade into ' woolen yarn. No old wool is going to waste. Eighteen million pairs of woolen stockings for the soldiers are called for: three million woolen head i covers and one million woolen inuf. tiers." So reads a dispatch from northern Italy, i itese supplies are only ror one army, and these contributions 1 are front only one nation. It is a mere hint of what is going On all over Europe.

The piies have ever been the friend of man in driving away colds. Moreover. the pine-honey qualities are peculiarly effective in fighting children's colds.
