The Chronicle is with the California:^
in their anti-alien land ownership
proposition, and we believe they
are going to win out, as they should.
Toothache! Have you ever been
bothered with it? If you have, then
you can in a measure sympathize with
this scribe, for he is wrestling with a
. . recalcitrant molar today as he is trying
to get The Chronicle to press.
THIRTY DAYS GIVEN TO COMPLY
WITH ORDERS.
A letter from the office of (lie railroad
commissioners brings the information
that the Chesterfield & Lancaster
Railroad authorities had been
given thirty days from April 30th, to
comply with the orders recently promulgated
by the commission in regard
to schedules, coaches, etc.
It is to be hoped that something
will be done this time. It is an out-!
rage 'not only ?upon J.he traveling
public but upon the people of Ches-j
terfield the way this road is now be-.1

lustratiton: Last 'Monday the train:
was .reported at Chesterfield as hav-j
ing left Pageland on time but it was,
40 minutes late on arrival' at Ches- j
terfield, having lost the time, we sup-)
pose, handling freight at the stations
between; and although it was due to
arrive in Cheraw at 4.40 it was about
5.30 when it rolled up to the station.
No, beg pardon; only the engine rolled
up to the station. The passengers
had to detrain way out in the
field by the side of the road, it being
impossible for the coach to get any
where near the depot.
But that is not the worst part of
tp;>. There was a goodly of-t
^B^^Bassengcrs on board that day, among
^^^Biem being several ladies with chlldand,
although the day, was very
warm and dusty, not a drop of wate
could be had te quench the thirst of
the crying children.
Will any one blame us for saying
something ought to be done with reference
to forcing better , schedules, j
better accomodations, etc., on the C.

MEMORIAL DAY.
The beautiful month of May, while
it comes to us with the fragrance of
flowers and much that i3 cheerful and
beautiful, yet it also brings to us
Memorial Day and with it many sad
I memories. All of us are not indebted
to history for our knowledge of the
greatest of national crisis. Many remember
it and the fathers and mothers
now living had better keep telling
that story to their children, so
that instead of their being dependent
upon cold type such as is to be found in
most of the histories now being
taught in all of our schools which
tells the story only from the standpoint
of "the other side," they will
be able to say, "I know, because my
father told me so!" "My mother tolu
me so!"
Men and women who vividly remember
1861-2-3-4, be yourselves historians
telling it, not with pen hut
with living tongue and voice and gesture.
That is the great use of Memorial
Decoration Day. for the flowers
on ilie grave tops soon become breathless
of perfume and in a week turn to
dust like unto that which lies beneath
them. But the story of courage and
self-sacrifice and patriotism told 011
platforms and in house-holds and by
the roadside and in churches and in
Cemeteries, ,by tjiat {annual recital
will he kept fresh in the memories of
generations as long as our American
institutions are worthy of preservation.

Some Fine Farms.
Editor Courier:?A few days ago
the writer was invited to take a trip
with Dr. J. D. Ingram to the various
Farms owned and operated by him in
| the lower part of this county. On
this particular trip Mr. Frank Sanjilers.
Dr. Ingram's overseer, left his
fine saddle horse at home and made
the trip with us in the doctor's touring
car.
The fiist farm we visited was what
lis known as the Bell farm, which is
being worked on shares by Mr. J. C.
Stokes, who is a splendid farmer and
will make a bale of cotton on every
acre this year if the rains come in
the right time. Mr. Sanders told the
writer that during the past winter
he had removed from this farm more
than three thousand stumps at a
cost of ten cents each. The removal
of these stumps, of course, put the
lands in fine shape and this farm can
easily be classed as one of the finest
faiyns in CheBterfleld county.
We next visited the R. S. Grant
- ay .ililHiMl' Iff > - ' 1. tr-Tf-r..
Ingram. Thi?farm is known ijy allinost
every body in Chesterfield county
to be one of the best managed and
(most productive farms in the county.
| Last, but by no means least, we
visited the new farm two miles east
! of town on the S. C. W. railroad. On
jthi? farm Mr. Sanders has two hundred
and fifty-eight acres in cultivaI
on/1 ovnoolc (n nnon lin two him
dred acres more next season. Among
other things Mr. Sanders is planting
fifty acres in velvet beans for soil
improvement. This farm bids fair to
become one of the very best farms in
Chesterfield county.
Mr. Sanders has on these different
farms more than three hundred acres
of long stape cotton planted and expects
an average of one bale to the
acre.?A. J. R. in the McBee Courier.

Fires at Pageland.
j I'ageland suffered by two fires dur|
ing the past week. The first was a
jj dwelling house belonging to Mrs. M.
| J. Turner and occupied by Mt. John;
iE. Smith. Mr. SmPh lost nearly all!
!J of his household goods, with only
| *300 insurance. There was only .$300
j insurance of the building.
The second fire was one on Saturday
! rooming in which the plant of the
! Pagelard Manufacturing company
.jind a barn belonging *o Mr. T. A.I
j Gulledge were burned. The plant ofj
| the Pageland Manufacturing company |
was valued at a little more than Sir.,-,
000 and the insurance carried was
only $6,000. The plant will be rebuilt,
we understand.
Iflieumatism Quickly Cured.
"My sister's husband had an attack
of rheumatism in his arm," writes a
well known resident of Newton Iowa.
"1 gave him a bottle of Chamberlain's
Liniment which he applied to his arm
and on the next morning the rheumatism
was gone." For chronic muscular
rheumatism you will find nothing
better than Chamberlain's Liniment.

REALLY NO MYSTERY AT .
Hostess Hits on Right Di6hes for Dyspeptic
and Woman Who Was
Reducing Weight.
When the Lawtons had lived in Wil- 01
low Park about a month, they were 1
Invited to a succession of little din- J
ners at the houses of their new neigh- '
bors. Mr. Lawton was on a dyspeptic
diet, and Mrs. Lawton was endeavoring
to reduce her weight.
"I suppose we shall have to eat all
sorts of things we don't wish, or else
seem rude," said Mrs. Lawtou, mournfully,
as they set out for the first dinuer.
To their growing surprise, the bills
of fare placed before them at each }j
dinner, although not remarkably var- 9
i^d, were all composed of such dishes J
as they could both enjoy.
"I don't see how you all hit on just
the right thing, when Mr. Lawton and
I really are such diiUcult guests," said
Mrs. Lawton in a burst of confidence
one afternon when the neighbors were "1
taking tea with her. T
The ladies locked at each other, and ^
then one of them spoke.
"You know Mary Sloan, who comes
to wash for you Tuesday mornings?"
she said. "Well, I have her Mondays,
and Mrs. Greeu has her Wednesdays, F
and she irons for Mrs. Porter Thursdays,
and scrubs for Miss I-lomer Fri
days, so you see?"
Her voice trailed off into silence,
but Mrs. Lawton no longer wondered;
sne saw.
TO HIDE CHEAP WOODWORK >
Proper Treatment With Paint Will
Turn the Hidecus Into the Dainty
and Beautiful.
When the woodwork in the rented VV
or bought house seems se cheap and If
hideous as to be absolutely hopeless, g|
which often appears to be the case, pj
stain it black. This will hide the de- j
fccts and give a great deal of style to
the rooms if used with red or green
or orange or blue paper, but will not &i
look so well with deHcate shados. tfc
White enamel paint always gives a
dainty effect, but it is quite expensive
.to put on, and cannot be done by an
amateur, while a sort of stain can be 4
made with black paint, diluted onethird
with turpentine, that is easily
applied by the inexperienced and will
give a very much more stylish tone
to the room than a poor imitation oak
flfeMuiv, - Tho/^-eame treatment}
may be tui^d to rejuvenate an old
Morris chair, that is comfortable but
whose yellow varnished arms have become
too hideous to be endured. Old
wood picture frames will bo improved
by the same treatment. But if these *
are really mahogany or real walnut
do not paint them, merely sandpaper
them and stain with a stain that can
be purchased at the paint store.
More Treasures Leave England. ^
One of the best preserved masterpieces
of Elizabethan interior decoration
in England is doomed to be dismantled
ia order to adorn the mansion
of some American magnate. A
West End firm has acquired, lock,
stock and barrel, the Elizabethan
building, with its Queen Anne additions,
known as Rotherwas, the seat
of the Bodenliam family, situated
about two and a half miles from 1
Hereford. The mansion had descend- H
ed in unbroken line from George jt
Bodenham, who lived in the reign of
Henry I. to Count Lubienski Bodeaham,
who died last year. The superb
paneling?Elizabethan, Jacobean and ^
