christian bearing, makes bim altogether
one of nature's noblemen.
The Colombia Street Electric Railway
has made several important improvements
in its service doring the j
lost few weeks. The new cars are |
most convenient. The pav-as-yoocnter
plan is a great improvment and
will be on especially fo>* Fair we^k.
/irk awav with the usual scramble j
J.X1 S?J ^
on busy days, and will douotlessprove
^a great relief during busy davs.
There is nothing r?ore refreshing
and invigorating tnan a ride "around
the belt." The lines extend out by
JI.> att's Park, Ridgewood, College
Place, Colonial Heights, Shandon,
Epworth, Wu.verly. Fair Grounds
through Olympia mill viliage, Conga- j
ree river and many other places of i
interest. The management is to be j
congratulated upon the very excel- i
lent service it is now giviDg the public.
No better set of men are to
be found anywhere than the conductors
and motermen who operate the
cars of the Columbia Street Electric
^railway. .
The Free Bridge.
According to The State of yesterday
the Colombia Chamber of Commerce !
held a "Greater Columbia" meeting !
en Monday night. "All sorts of rnbJects,
ranging in theme from the time
when Lexington Heights across the
<3ongaree would be one of Colombia's j
most fashionable residential sections j
to the elimination of discriminatory 1
freight rates, came up in the course of <
the extended discussion in which the f
members indulged," says the report. ^
As to the matter of free bridges, the 5
"following action was taken, says Tue ?
State:
*'L. T. Wilds, a member of the free
bridge committee, made a report. The
chairman of the committee, John D.
Frost, was absent. Mr. Wilds said
that his committee had 200 more g
names on the free bridge election pe- 1
than wprft needed to order the J
vuut? ??
'election. After Mr. "^Vilds had made
Siis report E. S. Dreher moved that
the qcestion of issuing ?75,000 in
?xmds with which to purchase the I
bridge be laid aside abtil the matter C
of the annexation of part of Lexing- I
t?n county to Richland had been set- I
tied. F. S. Terry moved that Mr.
IDreher's motion be tabled on the C
^grounds that there had been enough 0
procrastination over the free bridge S
^election. -Mr. Terry's motion was C
lost. Hunter A. Gibbs then moved
"that the entire matter be left to the
committee in charge as they were
&horoaghlv familiar with it and would r
act for the best interests of Columbia. ^
This motion was carried." ^
Everybody Take Notice.
There will be three big days at the I
County Fair this year, and it will be j
cfecessary for you to go each day for ( ?
this reason: One of the large carni- I C
Show9 has been engaged with a I I

Does Your Baby Suffer
From Skin Disease?
He would be a heartless father indeed,
who did not allay baby's suffering
a.-j did Mr. E. M. Bogan of Enterprise,
Miss. He says:
"My baby was troubled with breaking
out, something like seven-yesritch.
We used all ordinary remedies, but
nothing seemed to do any good until I
tried HUNT'S CURE andin a few days
all symptoms disappeared and now
baby is enjoying the best of health."

In Central America many natives are
gathering the seeds of this plant, Cedron
Seed, a rare medicine that has valuable
curative powers. But few drug stores
carry this seed, owing to the high cost
of the article.
This country is a large consumer of
this costly seed because it enters into
the famous catarrh remedy, Peruna,
sold the world over.
