Wednesday, February 21, 1906. o The State says: In the race for attorney general bnt one man has I been proposed so far, ana tnat is Solicitor Geo. Bell Timmerman of Lexington county. Solicitor Timmerman has proved himself to be a good politician by winning in a walk in the race for solicitor. He has several important cases to try before the campaign and on bis conduct in those trials will depend very much on his chance for election to a higher office. We rise to second the Domination and pledge hearty support to our young friend and fellow citizens. The governor has selected an honorable and trustworthy set of men as members of the board of pardons, in I the choice of Mr. R W. Sband, of Columbia; Mr. Wilson G. Harvey, of Charleston, snd R. Mays Cleveland, of Greenville; men who will temper mxzx.- -; . i 1 - a s ^ ^ ^ | justice wita mercy aca at iuw suluc jKvv-; ' ' i time exsct in fairness every demand | of tbe law.

Oar little town of Pelion is ail serene and still on the rise. Messrs. D. B. Sphaler, D. F. Shumpert ard C. R Rish are all doing a flourishing mercantile business.

Uncle Charlie. February 19,1906. , Sure to Be Left. The boeiness man who doesn't advertise these dajs is behind the times. There is no question that the best money on expense account can be placed is by advertising what you have for the public.

" B * ; K ~ nBHHHHBHBBBKODBnBBMDB Consumption jf There is no specific for consumption. Fresh air, exercise, nourishing food and Scott's Emulsion will come pretty near curing it, if there is anything to build on. Millions of people throughout the world are living and in good health on one lung. ^ From time immemorial the doctors prescribed cod liver oil for consumption. Of the nahent could not take it in its old form, hence it did very little good. They can take SCOTT'S EMULSION and tolerate it for a long time. There is no oil, not excepting butter, so easily digested and absorbed by the system as cod liver oil in the form of Scott's Emulsion, and that is the reason it is so helpful in consumption where its use must be continuous. q We will send you a sample free. <3 ?e sure rhat this picture in the form of a label is on the wrapper oevery bottle of J Emulsion you buy. ^ ? _ Si !
