APPEAL FOR WILSON MONEY
John Gary Evans, State Chairman,
Urges Cause?Sends Letter to
Each County Chairman.
. Columbia.?John Qary Evans, chair
man of the state democratic execu
tive committee issued an appeal to
the people of South Carolina to con
tribute to the Woodrow Wilson cam
paign fund. Mr. Evans calls upon
each county chairman to ask the
president of every Democratic club
to solicit subscriptions of one dollar
each from the members. This mon
ey will be forwarded to Gen. Wilie
Jones, treasurer of the Democratic
comraitteee.
The appeal is as follows:
To the people of Souin uarouna.:
"The Democratic party enters the
presidential campaign under the most
favorable auspices in its history. The
Republican party is hopelessly divid
ed, one w.ing being supported by the
Steel, Harvester and Sugar trusts and
the other by the Standard Oil, Tobac
co and other trusts not prosecuted.
"The money trust hoped to con
trol the Democratic convention at
Baltimore, but was completely routed
and expelled from the temple.
"Governor Wilson, the nominee of
the party for president, is a states
man, honest, clean and above re
proach. He has refused to receive
the money of the privilege seeking
millionaires and trusts. He is with
out personal means to run his cam
paign and entirely dependent upon the
contributions of the people for whom
he is fighting for the necessary funds
incidental to all campaigns. Not a
dollar of this money will be used for
any save legitimate expenses and that
under the direction of Governor Wil
OVU(
"The election of a Democratic pres
ident means a great deal to South
Carolina. Will you not as Democrats
individually and collectively contrib
ute what you can to help win this
fight The newspapers are kindly
doing what they can to collect a suit
able fund. I call upon every county
Democratic club to solicit subscrip
tions of one dollar each from the
members thereof and send the same
to Gen. Wilie Jones, treasurer of the
Democratic executive committee, Co
lumbia. Let us 'rally around the Vir
ginian' and show our loyalty by con
tributing what we can.

Army Worm at Work Near Mayesville
This section of the state nas not
escaped the ravages of the army
worm. Last year this worm caused
a lot or trouble around here, but its
ravages are far worse this season. It
is not the cotton crop alone that this
pest is confining its activities to, for
the corn, hay and potato crops are
being seriously damaged also. Some
of the leading planters report that
whole fields of young corn are being
lost on account of the worm and that
the pea vine hay crop is practically
ruined. For several years the farm
ers in this section have been reading
about the army worm but until the
last year they never knew what a
terrible pest this little worm was.
Florence County Campaign.
The Florence county campaign
opened up at Salem, in the extreme
southeastern section of the county,
and ended at Florence wltn two<
meetings before the general primary.
Owing to the large number of citizens
of Florence who could not get to
hear the candidates at the noonday
meeting, the county executive com
mittee arranged for a night meeting,
and that meeting was always looked
forward to as the meeting of the
campaign. In fact, it was usually
more largely attended than the state
campaign meetings when held in
Florence.'
Sixth District Master Printers.
The master printers of the Sixth
district are to meet in Florence about
the second week in August for the in
troduction of scientific estimate of
costs in their shops as has been done
in most of the other districts of the
state. The printers of this section
have been interested for a long time
in the matter and have made inquiries
and endeavored to try in a small way
to work their offices up to the stand
ard of self-sustaining prices for work
but they have not yet entered into
the system.
Encouraged Over Prospects.
Dr. J. W. Babcock, chairman of
the committee of arrangements for
the pellagra confereftce to be held in
Columbia next October, announced
that the committee is very much en
couraged over the prospects for the
meeting. In one mail were received
promises of papers from Dr. C. C.
Bass, professor of tropical medicine
in Tulane university, New Orleans;
from Dr. M. F. Engman, the St. Loius
dematologist, and from Dr. Antonini,
of Milan. Italy, whose subject will be
"the Ethology of Pellagra."
Army Worm In Richland County.
The army worm has made its ap
pearance in uicmana county, auuoru
ing to reports made to the state de
partment of agriculture. B. Harris,
special agent of the department,
made an investigation of a field near
Gadsden. The best plan for combat
ing the pest was discussed at a con
ference between Commissioner Wat
son and J. N. Harper of Clemson Col
lege. The farmers in conjunction with
the department of agriculture and
Clemson college will use every means
to exterminate the insect.

Lime In Some Form Will Benefit Soil.
Washington, D. C.?An inveBtiga
tion made by President Finley of the
Southern Railway System has shown
that experts in the chemistry of soils
are unanimously1 of the opinion that
lime in some form will benefit many
of the soils of the Southeastern States
by correcting their acidity and im
proving their mechanical condition.
President Finley has secured the
opinions of experts throughout the
Southeastern States and also in the
Eastern and Middle States, in some
of which experiments with the use of
lime have been carried on for a long
series of years. These opinions have
been published in an illustrated fold
er which is being widely distributed
among the farmers.

this subject may obtain copies of this

Weather and the Nerves.
Boston.?The influence or excessive
heat on human beings is demonstrat
ed when the country is visited by ex
traordinary hot waves. In legislative
and other deliberative bodies it leads
to loss of temper and frequently to
the passing of the lie. Individuals
who are ordinarily even tempered sud
denly become morose or violent. The
occupants of public conveyances are
snappy in conversation and cross.
There are more suicides' in warm
weather than in cold. Deeds of vio
lence predominate in heated terms.
Told of Mexican Cruelty.
San Antonio, Tex.?Amado Suarez,
who claims to be a citizen of New
York, has arrived in San Antonio
from Monclova, Mexico, and relates
a story of cruelties of which he alleges
he was the victim at the hands of
Mexican Federal officers. Suarez as
serts that he was arrested, suspected
of being a rebel. For three days after
his arrest, Suarez declares, he was
kept standing in a narrow cell, a
sentry being on hand to prevent him
if he attempted to sleep or fall to the
floor from exhaustion.
Exports For 1912 Over One Billion.
Washington.?Exportation of manu
factures in the fiscal year just ended
more than justified the estimate of the
bureau of statistics, Department of
Commerce and Labor, that- the total
value would in 1912 cross the billion
dollar line. That bureau, which has
just completed its figures showing the
exportation or manufactures, states
the total value of manufactures ex
ported in the fiscal year at $1,021,
763,918, of which $674,302,903 was the
value of manufactures ready for con
'jnption.
Damage From Army Worm.
Washington. ? The army worm
which is "marching through Georgia"
will do a million dollars worth of
damage to the corn, cotton and other
orops of that state, according to an
estimate by the state entomologist of
Georgia io a report to the Department
of Agriculture. What the amount of
injury of injury will be in the other
Southern states which the pest has
invaded, has not been figured, al
though it is feared that farmers and
planters will suffer heavily.

SUMSOIOOL
Lesson
(By E. O. SELLERS, Director of Eve
ning Department, The Moody Bible
Institute of Chicago.)
LESSON FOR AUG. 11.
A TROUBLED' SEA AND A TROU
BLED 80UL.
LESSON TEXT-Mark 4:25 to 5:20.
GOLDEN TEXT?"God Is our refuge
and strength, a very present help In trou
ble. Therefore will we not fear, though
the earth do change, and thouffh the
mountains be rfemoved Into the h?art of
the sea." Ps. 46:1-2.
We now turn from our BtouieB In
the manifesto or inaugural address 01
Jesus to one of the outstanding Inci
dents of his life of service.
This lesson is a dramatic on?x lights
and shadows, surprise and revelation,
rebuke and encouragement are rapid
ly mingled. The subject of the " les
son Is well chosen. Leaving the multi
tude to whom he had been preaching,
Jesus commands that they pass over
to the other side of the lake, v. 35.
"Let us pass over," he says. Jesus
never asks hiB disciple* to go wtiere
he will not go or has not been before.
How touchingly vivid is the sugges
tion of v. 36, "they took him as he
was,"?he is tired and weary, he,
whose invitation is to all who are
weary and needing rest, tie who had
not where to lay his head, is carried
by loving hands into the boat and is
soon lost In restful slumber? Loving
hands minister to the loved teacher.
Both master and friends, who are
soon to meet a case of great sin, are
beforp that met by a great'storm. But
be who is Lord and Master of forces,
sleeps calmly on. Why not? Who
else could be Indifferent? Nqt so these
disciples; they have yet to know-him
perfectly and hence It is quite natural
t-hat in their alarm they Should awak
? V?l?vi "" fJinir lilanr tllo r?nld1v fill
ing boat and exclaim. "Master, carest
thou not that we perish?" Weary as
he was, and personally Indifferent as
he may have been, yet for the sake of
his chosen friends he arose and re
buked the storm, and the peace which
he later gave the demoniac is first
shown in material things as he quieted
the waves (Compare v. 39 and 15). .<
Had Little Faith.
It was a great storm, v. 37, like
wise a great calm. The psalmist says,
"great peace have they who love :by
law," great peace have they who truly
know and love Jesus, (John 14:27).
His rebuke to the disciples, v. 40, was
so gentle as to lose Its sting, "how
Is it that ye have so little faith?" They
had some faith, It is true, for they ap
pealed to him In their great need, but
oh so little. .Our proportion of faith
is the measure of our fear. What
wonder (v. 41) that th^y were amazsd.
This man of flesh who had been sleep
ing the sieep of intense weariness com
manding the Eea and that it should
obey him with the meekness of a
child. "What manner of man is this?"
Nineteen hundred years has failed to
answer that query.
Reaching the other side they entered
the land of (Gadara. There they met
a demoniac who is, wo believe, a type
or picture of great sin in that be was
(a) without restraint, "no man could
bind him," v. 3; (b) he was injuring
himself "cutting, etc.." v. 6; (c) he
waS separated from his friends, "dwelt
flmontr the tombs." v. 3; (d) he was
"unclean," v. 2. There is also evi
dence of the futility of human resolu
tions and the vainness of attempts at
control or reformation, see verse 4,?
"no man had the strength to tame
him." Then note the torment of his
life, v. 7. Purity and pollution can
have no concourse. James tells us
that the devils believe and tremble
(Jas. 2:19). Matthews tells us this
man was exceeding fierce so that no
one passed that way. His sin sepa
rated him from all men. Such then,
Is the dreadful picture. What was that
storm on the lake as compared with
this storm of sin in the heart of a
man?
Physical catastrophes are far less
to be dreaded than moral and spiritual
I ones, and a diseased body than a dis
! eased mind. But he who spake and a
j great calm came upon the face of the
j waters, also had but to speak and
I forthwith the deVils enter the swine
! ,and are destroyed. "Why the swine?
TTr-~ ? T/\nr frtrhlfl Hon fn 11RA

! swine's flesh? Were not these Roman
I and Gentile customers violating the
| law of the land by partaking of the
: same, and were not the Jews taking
. advantage of an illegal traffic to en
! rich themselves? On the other hand
If they belonged to the Romans was It
not a protest against their open af
front of the religion of Jehovah?
Sins to Account For.
Church members have no right to
condemn the liquor traffic and then
| to rent stores in which to carry on
! the same. Naturally therefore, these
! people when they saw their Illegal
gains Interfered with should request
Jesus to depart, v. 17, and this even
in the face of what had been done for
stricken man. Luke tells us (Luke
8:37) that they were holden with a
great fear. Fear of what? Surely not
any fear of this, Galilean teacher, but
rather were they fearful of the effect
of his life upon their material pros
perity. Big business will have some
sins to account for when in the face
i of known facts they still press for
their gains ignoring the cry of the af
flicted and careless of unreasonable
house and unsanitary living condi
tions.
On the other hand why did Jesus re
fuse such a logical and seemingly rea
sonable and proper a request as that
recorded in verse 18? Was it not a
very natural request and an evidence
of gratitude as well? Jesus, however,
knew a better place, for he saw a
greater joy in store for this man.
Hence he commanded the man to "go
home" verse 19, and to witness both
of his own changed condition and also
of the compassion of God as manifest
in the son. How direct and simple is
the record, v. 20, "and he departed "

to tell how Lydia & Pinkham'aVegetable

Bccrcely able to do my work. I took doc

bearing down pains and my back was so
weak I could hardly walk and could not
ride. I often had to sit up nights to sleep
and my friends thought I could not live
long. At my request my husband got
me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound and I commenced to
take it By the time I had taken the
seventh bottle my health had returned
and I began doing my washing and was a
well woman. Atone time for three weeks
I did all the work for eighteen boarders
with no signs of my old trouble return

after seeing what it did for me.' I would
not take $1000 and be where I was. Yoa
have my permission to use my name if
It will aid anyone."?Mrs. Susie Tex*
