Best Medicine for Colds.
When a druggist recommends a remedy
for colds, throat and lung troubles,
you can feel sure that he knows what
he is talking about. C. Lower, DrugSist,
of Marion, Ohio, writes ot Dr.
king's New Discjvery: "I know Dr.
King's New Discovery is the best
throat and lung medicine I sell. It
cured my wife of a severe bronchial
cold after all other remedies failed."
It will do the same for you if you are
suffering with a cold or any bronchial
throat or lung cough. Keep a bottle
on hand all the time for everyone in
the family to use. It is a home doctor

i?. The daisy chain and May pole

j Interest centered chiefly in

Short Crop the Prospect.
The condition of the crops in
South Carolina is at least 25 per
' cent below the average for any
season in recent years. Reports
from all parts of the State show
that there is the poorest stand
' of cotton in years. In the lower
counties, which are considered
4-U ~ Xi i- ~ * ' * '
me unesL cotton sections ot the !
State, there is not more than '
half a stand of cotton, a great
1 many of the farmers are replanting
and others are waiting to see [
if the seed that have been in j
the ground for more than a
1 month will come up after the
j recent rains. The reports from
the Piedmont section are less
promising than from other parts.
Good rains have fallen in most
I all sections of the State in the
j last few days and a great mapy
ot the farmers are of the opinion
that the seed in the ground are
sound and will yet come up.
The corn crop is in better
shape than the cotton. A great
many of the farmers were fortui
nate enough to get a stand of ,
i corn before the long dry spell
j set in. Several weeks ago the
1 oat crop was in the most promising
condition, but the recent dry
weather has cut it very short.

other remedies failed. On.v 2T> cents,
