?IF MOTHER WERE ALIVE. "
Grover Cleveland's Beautiful Faith in
His Mother's Prayers.
Nothing said in praise of Mr. Cleveland
reflects more credit on him than
some words of his own, says an exchange,
referring to the following let
ter to his brother, written on the eve
of Mr. Cleveland's election as governor
of New York:
4<I have just voted, and I sit here in
the office alone. If mother were alive
I should be writing to her; and I feel
as if it were a time for me to write to
some one who will believe what I
write. I have for some time been in
the atmosphere of certain success, so
that I have been sure that I should
assume the duties of the high office
for which I have been named, I have
tried hard in the face of this fact
properly to appreciate the responsibitities
that will rest upon me; and
they are much?too much?underestimated.
But the thought that has
troubled me is: Can I perform my
duties, and in such a manner as to do
some good to the people of the State?
I know there is room for it, and I
know that I am sincere and honest in
my desire to do well; but the question
is whether I know enough to accomplish
what I desire.
"In point of fact, I will tell you,
first of all others, the policy I intend
to adopt, and that is to mafce tne
matter a business engagement between
the people and myself, in which
the obligation on my side is to perform
the duties assigned me with an
eye single to the interests of my employers.
I shall have in my head no
idea of re-election or of any high political
preferment, but be very thankful
and happy if I serve one term as
the people's governor. Do you know
that if mother were alive I 6hould feel
so much safer? I have always thought
her prayers had much to do with my
success. I shall expect you to help
me in that^way."
Granulated Sore Eyes Cured.
"TTVvr fxcAntrv vpars I snffprcd from a
bad case of granulated sore eyes, says
Martin Boyd of Henrietta, Ky. 4 'In
February, 1903, a gentleman asked me
to try Chamberlain's Salve. I bought
one box and used about two-thirds of it
and my eyes have not given me any
trouble since." This salve is for sale

Florence Delegation for Prohibition.
Florence, Aug. 20.?It is now an
assured fact that in the event of a
general prohibition bill being introduced
in the next House of Representatives,
that Florence county will
go solid for that bill. Through the
efforts of Dr. F. P. Covington and
Rev. R. Herbert Jones, all the candidates
for the house from this county
have pledged themselves to support
a general prohibition measure, wnicn
will be introduced at the next session,
That is, a measure will be Introduced
which will refer the question to the
people. All of the candidates are
agreed, and it is a source of great
pleasure to Messrs. Jones and Covington
that their efforts have heen
crowned with success. Thev have
both been very active in the cause of
prohibition in Florence ceunty and
this last step is one which they have
every reason to believe will bear good
fruit.
The following are the candidates for
the house from this county: Hartwell

Hay Fever and Summer Colds
Victims of hay fever will experience
great benefit by taking Foley's Honey
and Tar, as it stops difficult breathing
immediately and heals the inflamed air
passages, and even if it should fail to
cure yon it will give instant relief." The
genuine is in a yellow package. Derrick's
Drug Store.
Troops passing through Atlanta on
Wednesday raised a big disturbance,
and police reserves were called out to
quiet them.
Burt Hudson, who threw Sandowin
Columbia last Tuesday night, had his
leg injured in the match.
Summer complaints and other serious
ailments in hot weather can be traced
to the stomach nine times out of ten.
Keep the stomach in good order right
now by keeping a bottle of Kodol handy
in the house all the time, but especially
during this month. Take Kodol whenever
you feel that you need it. That is
the only rime you need to take Kodol.
Just when you need it; then you will
not be troubled with sour stomach, |
belching, gas on the stomach, bloating,
dyspepsia and indigestion Sold bv
