"I hobbled into Mr. Blackmon's drug _store
one evening." says Wesley Nelson of Hamilton.
Ga. "and he asked mc to try Chamberlain's
Pain Balm for rheumatism wsith which I had
suffered for a long time. I told him I had no
faith in any medicine, as they all failed. He
said: 'Well, if Chamberlain's 'Pain Balm does
not help you. you need not pay for it.' I took a
bottle of it home and used it' according to the
directions and in one week I wa-s cured. and

Mr. Richardson Explains.
Editor TuE TItEs:
Will you kindly permit me space in your
columns to explain to those in Clarendon
County interested in the tobacco culture
aad sales, my reasons for withdrawing the
bi I introduced "Further regulating the
charges of warehouses in handlin2 and
weighing Leaf Tobacco." I was influenced
to introduce the bill by hearin~g complaints
from many of those engaged in tobacco cul
ture. who considered the rates now exist
ing too high. and who thought it should
be changed or moditied, and thus arrive at
n equitable arrangement between pro
ducer and the handler. Instead of refering
the bill to one of the standing committees,
I had it sent to a special committee com
posed of two members of the House from
ach of the following counties, as those
most concerned in the tobacco industry:
Clarendon, Marlboro, Horry, Daritugton,
Florence. Orangeburg, Sumter, Williams
burg and Bamberg. T1he committee called
before the arepresentatives of the wvare
ouses and experts, and gave the matte-r
the most carelul consideration. Althongh
many thought the charges high, it was
inally determined that it would be best
not to legislate at this time on the matter
and to allow the schedule as it exists to re
main in torce. Inasmuch as this arrange'
eit voiced the ideas and opinions of the
most efficient men throughout the State
to pass on this particular subject, and as
the measure was conceived in the interests
of both the growers and handlers of to
bacco, my object was effected, and I with
drew the bill to save unnecessary expense
in printing and a further consumation of
time. HENRYt B. ICaAaD~oN.
--Af ter doctors failed to cure me of pneumonia.

If you are neatly dressed;
It shows they know the difference
Between the worst and best.
Now men, they also judge by clothes,
Of this you are aware;
Meeting a stranger poorly clad,
You give him a cold stare.
The man whose clothes are new and fit,
He gets the smiles from you,
And also from mankind,
Whether clothes are old or new.
The moral of this story is,
Rigby wants you to dress well;
He clothes you at a moderate cost,
Which makes his clothing sell.
He has sold suits for many years,
His clothes are known throughout the land;
They fit, they wear-are stylish, too,
