BETTER THAN ASM FOR New Perfected Tablets, Galled Aspitone, Free From Heart Depressing Effects. Do Not Upset Stomach. Physicians and druggists arc very enthusiastic over the new and imprvoed aspirin tablets, called Aspitone, which are slightly stimulating instead of de pressing to the heart and should be used especially for headache, neural gia, rheumatism and other heart weak ening diseases, such as influenza, severe colds and threatened pneumonia. Many physieians. are substituting As- pitqne for aspirin' in all of their prac tice on Mje theory -that even if thq, pa, tie id ’s heart is strong, there is no reas on to give a heart depressing remedy when the same effects may be trad frdm the new Aspitone* without the heart depressing effect. . , ■ • . Druggists report a Targe demand Tor Aspitone taVdMs on account of the prev alence of colds and influenza'.

Pessimists who shake their heads and Join the chorus of “I dunno” boys at the prospect of floating a fifth Lib- ertv Loan In April are administered a knock-out by figures which have re cently been compiled by officials ot the Treasury Department at Wash ington. i The figures give ui idea of just how big an appetite for safe investment this country has attained in its war- year. Some of the more striking of the figures referred to follow; A bond market which had less than SOO.OOO customers two years ago had at the close of 1918 between 20,000,- 000 and 25,000.000 buyers. The army of buyers absorbed $11,156,565,850 worth of bonds in Liberty Bonds alona in 1918. In the two years of the war—count ing the first and second Liberty Loans which were floated in HJ7— these bond buyers digested a total of $16,974,329,850 in Liberty bonds. ‘ This healthy condition of the bond market Is explained, perhaps, by the fact that the entire indebtedness of the United States today amounts to slightly less than 7 per cent of the estimated national wealth. The na tional debt amounts to only about $170 per capita. Some of the national debts are: Great Britain, 44.3 per cent cent, of national wealth or $360 per capita; Prance, 41.25 per cent of national wealth or $296.90 per capita; Austria, ’ 84.66 per cent of national wealth or $242.90 per capita ;and Germany, 3$.T per cent of national wealth or $605.90 per capita. These figures on Germany are ex clusive of the ninth war ,loan, accu rate returns of which never were had, and Tn the cases of l>oth Austria and Germany no account is taken of any indemnities which those nations will have to pay. record in Athletics again next year.' The College has an excellent gymnasium. 7. Expenses: Expense is out item many parents and students must consider. In the midst of the high cost of everything, the College has done all it could to keep down expenses. A student can attend College and pay’ all Cqllege fees from $105 to $122.50 a year. This includes tuition, incidental, athletic, medical, gymnasium and library fees, $75.00; and room-rent with heat and servant hire for from $30.00 to $4-7.50 a year, depending upon the dormitory. This does not include board, l^ght and water; the College furnishes a refectory, which with equipment cost about $10,000, free of all rent and the student simply pays what his board costs. In January this amounted to $16.96, in February to $15.18. Liglu and water cost about $1.00 a month. This makes hoard, light and water between $16.00 and $17.00 a month; for nine months this A amounts to $144-$153. Books and laundry are about $30.00; this brings all expenses to $275-$30Q a year. This will cover all Necessary College expenses. Under Military Training you will find that expenses for students can be greatly reduced, in their Junior and Senior years, by joining the R. O. T. C« .• . . ' "* 4' at' 8.

The privilege of buying extra uniform at the above-mentioned prices from the Quartermaster Department, whichwill have an additional saving value to those who take advantage of it. The privilege of special technical training in various fields without any tuition charges. An opportunity to obtain a,commission as second lieutenant of the Regular Army for a period not exceeding six months, with allowances for that grade, and with pay at the rate of $100.00 per month. It will b6 seen from the foregoing statements that nothing is furnished to Freshmen and Sophomores, except one complete outfit. However, they have the privilege of buying other things from the Government at Government prices. In addition to the outfits, Juniors and Seniors are allowed 40c a day for maintenance. Members of the R. O. T. C. are not required to aUend summer camp, but have the privilege of doing so at the expense of the Government. In addition to maintenance and railroad fare an entire new outfit is furnished. The R v 0. T. C. should be a great help t6 students working their way through college. In the Junior and Senior years, in addition to being fur nished with a complete outfit, they are allowed 40c a day, which will amount to something over $100.00 and very nearly pay their board.

AN APPEAL TO PRESBYTERIANS The Presbyterian Church was once the most influential Church in South Carolina. We have not used our opportunities to the best advantage. We now have 30,000 members; we should have 60,000. One of the prin cipal reasons why we have not lived up to our opportunity is that we allowed our energies to. become dissipated. ’Presbyterians are the greatest givers on earth, but they frequently have not much to show for their gifts. We Presbylerians are now organizihg and pushing our work as we never done before. Every congregation is interested in its Every- Member Canvass for benevolences. Education has a place in the budget. We now want to do our part in carrying the Gospel to; the uttermost parts of the earth. Our spiritual leaders have come from church colleges in the past, and they will most likely continue to come from them in the future. Can t we now get together in our educational work? Have you any objection to having your son educated in your own church college? Have you ever thought over the matter and looked into the. work done by your church college? We are not pleading to you to send your son to Clinton simply because it is your church college, but we are pleading to you to send him there because we feel that there is no other place where he can be better fitted for the bigger and higher things in life. The war has taught us moral values. Young men were promoted usually, not only on account pf intellectual and military skill, but also on account of moral standing. The Bible js the foundation of all permanent moral develop ment. Here the Bible is taught through the entire four years as the Word of God. ~ There are now over 600 Presbyterian boys from South Carolina in college; one-half of these would give us a college of over 300 students. If Presbyterians of South Carolina who are patronizing church colleges would patronize their own, o^ir enrolment this year would be over 225. The Presbyterians of South Carolina can get together and build up a college that will be an honor to the Church. We have sufficient money to equip and endow it handsomely, and I believe the people are willing to give it. Something like $300,000 has been raised for the college in the last few years, and I think this is only the beginning, of what will be done in the near future. Our rich men are Beginning to realize that the best investment they can make is building up Christian colleges. The fine young men from our Presbyterian homes in South Carolina will enable the Col lege to maintain a high intellectual, athletic, social and moral standing. Decide now to send your son to your own College this Fall. He will get a high grade college education under the best moral and religious influences, and return home after graduation in sympathy with the work of his church. Write to the President for a catalogue and have a room reserved. SOLID SECURITY It is the Wealth of This Great Country Somewhere Near Hundred and Fifty Billions of Dollars. t/s" How many holders of "Libfrtj realize fully the security "that is back of that property they own? It is the wealth of the richest na tion of the earth. Here’s but a glance at what that world’s of the of the If you want You Need The Chronicle wealth comprises. " With. 6 per cent of the population and 7 per cent world’s land America o\wns world supplies: 70 per cent of the copper. 52 per cent of the coal. 20 per cent of the gold; 66 per cent of the oil. 40 per cent of the iron and steel. - 33 per cent of the silver. 60 per cent of the cotton. 25 per cent of the wheat. 60 per cent of the corn. 30 per cent of the meat supplies. Other mineral and agricultural pro ducts In proportion. Today Europe owes us $10,000,000,- 000; four years ago we owed her near ly half that. Lastly our annual income, that of all the people and industries, is today something like $70,000,000,000 annual ly and our national wealth close te $350,000,000,000.

Many excellent young men need help in getting their college educa tion. After you read this Bulletin, if you ‘want to enter college, but are not financially able to do so, write to the President and he will arrange to help you. You will see under the heading of Expenses that you can attend this college for about $275. The College has a few tuition scholarships; they are worth $50.00 each. If you are unable to pay your tuition, the Presi dent will try to arrange to give you qne of these scholarships. This will* reduce your expenses to $225.* Any Presbyterian boy can borrow as much as $100 through our Com mittee (for particulars write the President). No interest is charged until you graduate, and then it is only four per cent. No security is required except your own note given in good faith. With a loan of $100, your expenses are brpught down to $12£. In the Junior and Senior years, the R. 0. T. C. students in addition to r • a * • clothes, are allowed 40c per day for the year, which amounts to over $100; this practically takes care of your remaining $125. In the’Fresh man and Sophomore years, the President will try to provide when it is needed. You will see from this that any boy who wants it can get a college education. If you need help, write to the President at once. -- - THB HIGH SCHOOL DECLAMATION CONTEST— in O-d T'-aitv Uncle Eben—“I just hart a Iett« from my English wnslD. He was the trenches.
