The law forbids the sale of any coi pound or mixture which will produce intoxication, and we are told nearly every general store sells essence of lem on which contains a larger percentage of alcohol than ordinary whiskey. The drug stores with few exceptions are sell ing quantities of Jamaica ginger which contains about 75 per cent alcohol when diluted with water makes a good sub stitute for liquor and a drunk that will make a man spit in his grand-mother's face. A country merchant told the writer a few days ago that it is with difficulty he can keep either essence of lemon or jamaica ginger in his stock, that if the courts decide the sale of these com pounds are legal, he is thinking of going into the manufacture of them to sell at wholesale. He said he .is satisfied he an manufacture these two compounds and some other stomach washes to sell o the trade so they can be sold to the consumer for one-half the price of whis key, and be equally as effectiVe a drunk maker. The trustees of t'ae various school dis ricts should hold a county convention to see if they cannot fix upon a scheme to keep the schools in county running ine months. It is very evident that a aumber of the schools, including Man ing cannot have a term ol nine months, nless something is done to supplement ,he fund. The condition is upon us, it matters not the cause. we are to face it, mnd we believe it would be well for the 3ounty superintendent of education to 3all a meeting of all the trustees of all ,he schools in the county, and invite the public to attend. Let the head of the chools give to the meeting a statement >f the condition of each district, then let him invite discussion. A meeting of this rature can do no arm, and it might result in good. The matter of amending the school law re ating to the appointment of trustees .uld also be taken up at this proposed eeting. At present the schools are anaged by trustees virtually appointed by the County Superintendent of Edu :ation, the patrons have no voice in ,hese appointnents, and it frequently happens that there is much dissatisfac ion resulting, now. if the people want this system changed so that in their re spective districts the trustees shall be elected, a resolution from a meeting would have weight with the delegation Bu the main thing in our judgment to be discussed should such a meeting be eld, is a ways and means to provide means for a full nine months school erair. Boards ot Health Are Pnblic Guardians. We are asked "to define the functions Snd powers of the Board of Health, and what relationsbip the duties of the boards of health is to the public wel are." To comply with the request fully would take up more space than is at our command. The law, with the ob ject of having every precaution against liseases, plagues. contagions and epi :emics has given to the boards of health smost unlimited powers to enforce any regulations they may make. For in stance: A board of health in one com munity may make a regulation that is imperatively necessary in its communi ty, that would be altogether unneces ary, inoperative and perhaps injurious in another, therefore in order to extr ise a wisdom essential for wholesome government of a community, provision is made by the law to cover the condi tions and ~environments of the respec tive communities by permiting the local boards to make such regulations, not in conflict with the regulations of the State Board, as in their judgment may be deemed proper, and the law officers are required to enforce these regulations. What are the functions of the Boards of Health? The name itself suggests ther duties viz: To exercise an intel ligent vigilence over the community for the preservation of health, and in this, they should have the support of every good citizen because when a community becomes lax and unsanitary from indif ference, neglect or otherwise the dam age is not to a few but to the many. Epidemics cannot be arrested at one man's door, if his neighbor is to have on his premises that which may breed pestilence-filth, trash, decaying vege table matter, pools of stagnant water which are mosouito incubators, and any and all things that are not conducive to health The police preserve law and order in a well governed city; it is this guardian ship which gives pe-- of mind, and permits citizens to lie E.7n to sleep, having faith in the protection the gov ernent promises to life and property. Boards of health occupy a similar rela tion to the general public, they are watchman on the tower to warn against the approaching danger a monster more insidious than the thief who lurks about in the night. They are to arrest the ap proach of that, Nhich not only robs the purse and leaves property to mourn the :ss, but with invisible mystery enters in and robs the marrow of the bones, and leaves its victim a sufferer of mind and body, and praying for the grim monster Death for relief. If -there is one thing the people of this American government can be proud of and thaukful for it, is the great stress being laid by the spending of millions of dollars for improved sanitary meas ures. The government has been able to stamp out diseases altogether, and in very many sections by the strict vigi lence of boards of health, has prevented them from getting beyond their starting point. A board of health doing its full duty is really more of a guardian for the uplift and welfare of a community ?.nd giving more indiscriminate benefit than, in our judgment, any other one branch of government. To Prevent Hydrophobia. A correspondent writes that about six years ago he saw an item in a newspa per stating that a German physician was going to die, and he wished to make know the discovery he had made in re lation to the treatment of a mad dog bite. The prescription he never knew to fail, and he had tried it many times with men, cattle and horses. It is this, Simply wash the wound as soon as pos sible in a little warm vinegar and wa ter, and put a few drops of muriatic acid into the wound. This will neutral ize the poison and prevent the disease which usually proves fatal.-Boston Journal. Bucklen's Arnica Salve The Rae Snlve i& 'he World A Novel Case. A case of unusal interest was called before Magistrate Richbourg's court at Summerton last Thursday. Dr. D. 0. Rhame, the mayor of Summerton, was haled before Judge Richbourg charged with selling Jamaica Ginger, a compound, containing a large per centage of alcohol. The charge being one beyond the jurisdiction of the mag istrate all that. he could do was to hold a preliminary, but the prosecution rep sented by J. M. Woods, Esq., made ob jection to Judge Richbourg hearing an exparte side of the case upon the ground of biasness in favor of the de fendant. ,W. C. Davis, Esq., repre sented the defense. The cause was moved to Manning to be heard before Ma2istrate Dickson at a time nut fixed. As far as our information goes, there appears to be considerable feeling among the friends of Mr. Ad Walters, who it seems bought Jamaica Ginger at the drug store of Doctor Rhame, and became intoxicated to the extent of becoming boisterous and disorderly. He was arrested and heavily fined, which resulted, so it is claimed, in a warrant being sworn out charging Dr. Rhame with vioiating the liquor laws of the State, in that he sold a compound or mixture which contains alcohol when used as a beverage will produce intoxication. This case will be watched with in terest all over the country, because a very important element of law enforce ment is involved in it. If the courts decide that the selling f of Jamaica Ginger is in violation of law, it will necessarily have to make the same rling with regard to nearly all of the extracts being used in the households for cooking and baking, because nearly all of them contain'. large percentage of alcohol. Vinegar would have to be analyzed to ascertain the percentage of alcohol it contains; yearst for the making of bread, goes through a fer mentation, and it too, may contain lcohol. A Business Change. The door, sash and blind business of Messrs. Geo. S. Hacker & Son, at Char eston, S. C., which was established by Mr. Geo. S. Hacker in the year 1842. has been bought by the Hacker Manu facturing Company. The new company is composed of some of Charleston's best known and most progressive business men, and we have no doubt but that the record established by the former firm for fair dealing and the manufacture of honest goods will be maintained by the new concern. The name Geo S. Hacker &.Son has for almost three-quarters of i. century been a synonym for the best in door, sash and blind manufacture, ind we bespeak for the Hacker Manu racturing Co., the good will and confi dence of the people of this community. Mr. G. B. Buell, of the firm of Buell k Roberts, is President of the companv. mnd Mr. J. B. Davis, Construct-ing En ineer of the ValCa. Chemical Co., is Vice President; Mr. John B. White, ate of Cameron, S. C., is Secretary and rreasurer and Mr. P. J. Prendergast, who has been Superintendent with dessrs Geo. S. Hacker & Son for fifteen Fears is General Manager. We call attention to the advertise ment of the new company in this issue. Lived 152 Years. Wm.

Weeks, who com leted forty-three years service is a ember of the city police force on Ap:-il 5th retired from active duty on Satur ay, May 1st, and will hereafter draw wo-thirds pay as a reserve officer, city. ouncil having at the last meeting ad pted a resolution relieving him of ac ive duty and placing him on the reserve ist. Officer Weeks served the city faith fully and well, especially during the urbulent and disorderly period immed ately after the war and throughout the econstruction era, when a man of cool ourage and determination was needed o keep the disorderly and criminal ele ent in subjection. For the scrvices he hen rendered the people of Sumter ave been ever grateful and now that dvancing age incapacitates himi for regular patrol duty h~e has been placed n the reserve list and will be called on nly in case of emergency. It may seem a little thing to provide for a faithful ervant who has given the best years of his life to the service of the community and who has during his forty odd years f service risked his life hundreds of imes, but no act of the city of Sumter s more creditable, and no taxpayer who as a grain of public spirit or apprecia ion in his make-up will withhold his pproval of the pension that has been been awarded Albert Weeks.-Sumter tem, Mlay 3rd. "Suffer Little Children to Come Unto Me, and Forbid Them Not." Editor The Manning Times: In the MANNING TIES of May 5th this paragraph appears in the local olumn, "The Sardinia school was visited last Sunday by M~r. Isaac M. Loryea of Manning, who participated in the Bible class exercises, after which he read from manuscript an address to the Sunday school. -Sub ject, Christ from Book of Matthew." Although your paper is usually accurate, in this instance you have fallen into several errors. First: The writer did not partici pate in the Bible exercises, but mere ly assisted a few of the scholars seat ed near him in locating the answers to the questions profounded by the teachers. Second: His subject was not "Christ from Book of Matthew" but "The Cry of the Children," his text from St. Matthew, Chapter 18:1 to 2 inclu sive. In his introductory he stated that as a son cf Judea and naturally a firm believer in the 'One and Only God,' still he had the highest esteem, regard and admiration for his dearly beloved young brother, Jesus the Jew. And incidentally spoke of the beautiful boy Christ jour neying to Jerusalem to par ticipate in the Passover holi days in the golden city, commem orative of the Exodus of the israeli tes from the land of bondage, and as the first emancipator of women and as a great lover of little children, and the ever fascinating and touching in cident of the friendship of Mary Mag dalen for her saviour in every sense of the term, and lastly he dwelt upon the "Cry of the Children." Your correspondent would add that the address was only delivered at the earnest request of members of the Sunday school, and that prior to its delivery the manuscript was shown to the superintendant so as to avoid giving any offence to his many good friends assembled who have been so kind attentive and hospitable to him during his stay in Sardinia. He would add that the address was received with kind consideration and interest, much more than its merits deserved. IsAAc M. LORTEA, Sardinia, S. C., May 8th, 1909. A)TnY5KII1DFXCUBE IMakesa Kidneysv and Bladdae Right A Lion Hunt. There is a d-zLinction in Africa be tween or.inary lions and "man eaters. says T. R. MacMechen in McClure's Magazine. The ordinary loin does not willfully attack man. The presence of loins roaming at night on the veldt is riot disturbing to any native nor to whites who have come to understand the beast. Persons returning to their camps after nightfall do not notice the roaring of lions or the cries of leopards or hyenas. It is seldom that people bent upon do mestic errands carry weapons in the darkness. although at night the veldt of British East Africa is alive with roaming beasts. which may be heard from the verandas of the houses. Lions give the passing man a wide berth, day or night, when it is apparent that he means no mischief. An ordinary lion, even when wounded will try flight be fore fight. When its escape is disputed it will. especially if wounded, try to maul its enemy wi'.h teeth and claws. A lion hunt is usually a chase in which the hunters goad the game into combat. Once a lion has tasted human blood, however. it is no more afraid of man. but learns that he is the weakest of ani mals and the choicest of meat. Such a lion is known as a man eater because now he hunts man. BUSINESS LOCALS. I have several hundred dollars to be lent out on real estate mortgages. J. H. Lesesne, attorney at law.
