New Perfected Tablet, Called
Aspitone, is Slightly Stimulat
ing instead of Depressing to
Heart. Especially Recom
mended by Physicians in
Influenza, Seveue Colds,
Headache, Neuralgia,
and Rheumatism.
* ■ ■ . ■
i'hysicians and druggists are very
enthusiastic over Aspitone, the new and
improved aspirin tablets that are said
to be slightly stimulating instead of
depressing to the heart. They explain
that severe colds, influenza, fevers,
lo adadies, neuralgia and rheumatism
are almost invariably, attended by a
w> akness Of the heart and require stim
ulation rather than depression. Heart
failure, they say, is especially to be
guarded against in influenza and pneu
monia, hence they recommend Aspitone.
A gentle laxative with one or two
tablets of Aspitone as needed, is now
the pliysician's favorite treatment for
severe colds* and threatened pneu
liinnia. It will usually cut short a cold
or,surd throat over night. Aspitone tab
h ts arc also being used with splendid
results for the relief of pain in head-
ai hrs, neuralgia and rheumatism. The
leading druggists everywhere n’re now
supplied with Aspitone, which is sold
in sealed packages, price thirty-five
i i nis. They may be obtained locally
at tlie City Pharmacy, T. K. Rhames,
Sadler Owens and Young’s Pharmacy.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there Is at least
one dreaded disease, that scienct has
been able to cure in all its stages and
mat is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
ntiueneed by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
acts thru the Blood on tire Mucous Sur
faces of the System thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, giving the
patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature In doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in the curative power of Hall's
Catarrh Medicine that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

Lay members of the Lutheran
churches, connected with Uie Mist
souri Synod, which covers the entin
United Suites and is the largest Luth
eran body in this country, have under
taken a nationwide campaign to raise
at least $3,000,000 in Liberty bonds,
the incon^e of which is to be used for
the support of its superannuated min
isters, professors, teachers and their
dependents. The outstanding feature
of this campaign is that it is based on
Liberty loan holdings of the members
of this body. The official statistician
of the synod has established the fact
that its members hold $50,000,000 in
Liberty bonds, and, as not all reports
are in, it is estimated that the total
amount held is about $65,000,000. The
aim of the campaign ,is to get the
members of this body to donate 10
per cent of their Liberty bonds, which
are to be deposited in an endowment
fund, and the proceeds only used for
ministerial relief.
Heretofore the funds for ministerial
relief were raised by- voluntary eoh-
tributions and about $75,000 annually
was received for this purpose. As Yhfc
synod supports about 700 benefleiaries
and the high cost of living-makes it
desirable that the amounts paid be
increased, this drive is being con
ducted to get a permanent fund, the
proceeds from which will enable the
symxl to give its veterans of the
Cross a support, more nearly adequate
fo their needs.
Life
Was a
t
Misery
Mrs. F. M. Jones, of
Palmer, Okla., writes:
“From the time 1 en
tered into womanhood
. . . I looked with dread
from one month to the
next. I suffered with my
back and bearing-down
pain, until life to me was
a misery, f would think
1 could not endure the
pain any longer, and I
gradually got worse. . .
Nothing seemed to help
me until, one day, . i .~

TAKE
Negro Preachers Take a Hand.
The colored Interdenominational
Ministers' Union met recently at the
Tadson Presbyterian- church. Colum
bia. The Rev. D. F. Thompson presfd
ed. After the devotional exercises
the committee that was appointed tc
consider the advisability of erecting a
slab or a memorial building at Orange
burg in honor of negro soldiers, made
its report. _ „
It was stated that at a meeting ol
colored citizens held some weeks ago
an organization w’a|? effected, and a
commission was appointed fo make
application for a charter, and to ar
range for a drive to raise money for
this purpose. The ministers claim
that this organization was unauthor
ized by anybody that is composed of
the genuine leaders of the race. Hence
they are opposed to it. But they put
themselves on record as being in favor
af a monument being erected in honor
M the negro soldiers, and it is their
unanimous wish or opinion that it
mould be in Columbia. It was Urged
rhat Columbia is the capita): it is cen
tral. and the headquarters of nearly
ill the secret orders of the negroes in
the state, therefore, the monument
should he erected here.
Preparing for Victory Loan.
The ^Rate machinery for the Vic
tory Liberty Loan composed; of rep
resentatives from every county in the
State met in Columbia and discussed
the various probleipa which are to be
considered in making the canvass
next month. A spirit of optimism was
clearly evident. A strong aggregation
of workers have been lined up and
with the experiences of past cam
paigns to guide in this canvass, the
leaders are confident the State will-
again go far beyond Its apportion
ment. . • /
Various features to stimulate com
petition were suggested. One of these
is Liic (iisiriDiiuon oi
85,000 of which have been brought to
America as trophies. It has been sug
gested. by the women's committee to
use the helmets as prizes in speeding
the work through the echool children.
Questions of publicity and other an
gles were considered, and general in
struction as to arranging and ban
dling public meetings given. Many
public speakers will be available and
bands will likely also be furnished.
The soldiers themselves are to have
an active part in the canvass

The Woman’s Tonic
“I took four bottles,”
Mrs. Jones goes on to
say, “and was not only
greatly relieved, but can
truthfully say that 1 have
not a pain. . .
“ It has now been two
years since I tookCardui,
and I am still in good
health. . . I would ad
vise any woman or girl
to use Cardui who is a
sufferer from any female
trouble.”
If you suffer pain caused
from womanly trouble, or
if you feel the need of a
good strengthening tonic
to build up your run-down
system, take the advice
of Mrs. Jones. TryCar-
dui. It helped her. We
believe it will help you.

To Resume Seed Buying.
Thp oil myis.of the state* will proh-
ably start buying cottonseed again
within the next few days, said Chair
man J. Scottowe Wannamaker, of the
central coihmtttee of the South Car
olina Cotton association. This, he
said, would probably be one -result of
the bitter controversy .which he has
bad recently with Governor Allen, of
Kansas.
For some time there has been no
market whatever for cottonseed in
the state and many farmers have been
using them for fertilizer purposes.
Every effort has been made by the
central committee to have the condi
tions that have operated to close the
market for cottonseed removed, but
information received by It Is to the
effect that the mills will probably
again begin to purchase seed within
the next few d&ys.
, This will be good news Indeed for
the farmers of the state.
Will Invest $50,000.
The sinking fnnd commission de
cided to invest $50,000 in the Victory
loan bonds.
This was done at a meeting of the
board at whlcfi a number of routine
matters received attention.
The board appointed State Treasur
er Carter and Comptroller General
Osborne to formulate rules for guid
ance in insurance matters. It was
decided that the board hereafter
would carry net lines to the amount
of $15,000 on brick school buildings
and $5,000 on frame buildings.
Some New Enterprises.
W. Banks Dove, secretary of state,
commissioned the Brandwood Thea
ter Company of West Greenville, with
a proposed capital stock of $2,000.
Harris Springs^,Company of Harris
Springs, Laurens county, was char
tered with a capital stock of $20,000.

Greenville was commissioned with a
proposed capital stock of $35,000, the
petitic-Dr^s being S. G. Glover, W. H,

Highway Apportionment.
The State highway commission has
announced the amount of federal road
building funds apportioned each
county In the State and has issued an
instructive and Interesting statement
interpreting the apportionments of
money into terms of road mileage for
two good types of road beds. South
Carolina’s share of federal funds for
road" buildings amounts to $3,156,-
154.04. The State highway commis
sion has apportioned this among the
46 counties of the ^t&te on the basis
of their population?"area, total taxable
property and their mileage In the
proposed State highway system.
Before the federal funds for road
construction become available, they
must be covered, under present condi
tions, dollar for dollar by the coun
ties. Therefore, the federal funds
plus the county funds will, provide a
total of $6,312,308.08 for road con
struction in this State.

To Compress Cptton.
Rulings of the Atlanta district
freight traffic committee permitting
cotton destined for South Carolina
and North CaVollna cotton mills to be
compressed here will be published In
the cotton tariffs of the railroads soon
according to Secretary Blatter of the
Chamber of Commerce who is a mem
ber of the freight traffic committee
and has Just returned from a meeting
in Atlanta.
This new ruling .will help cotton
mill men and cotton men whose cus
tomers often want compressed cotton.
City Schools Affected.
With the coming of the new com
pulsory attendance law many pupils
will be forced into schools all over the
State. Columbia city schools will feel
the effect of the law as well as others
and some steps to supply adequate
class room facilities will have to be
taken as practically every school is
crowded. Bri^t. Hand estimates that
from 390 to^MOO pupils will be forced
Into the r.chools when the new law
is applied, making It Impossible to
accommodate the increasing number
with the f resent classroom facilities.
