It was soothed and coaxed.* It was held near the fire until the cheek abutting it was nearly roasted. It was chloroformed. It was fed on essence of juniper and essence of pepperment and essence of cloves. It was filled. Its nerve was killed?the miserable thing was immured from fresh air like a prisoner. This tooth sometimes slept, but it never forgot. It was most treacherous when it seemed most compromising but it was only biding its time Its favorite recreation hour was just after mid-night when druggists and dentists had retired, then is when It was especially diabolical with activity. It just longed for a release and for the forceps and it never let up until the forceps was applied. There is no use in contesting issues with a mutinous molar. Fight rheumatism if you will but throw up the spong at this altercation. You will blister your mouth, ruin your dfsedtive organs* and quarrel with your family and friends. Go right off to the dentist and tell him to pull your head off and the accursed grinder with it. and live on soup, if need be, but have peace. Jerk the abom- 1 ination out and it will be content. That's just what we had to do and now we are having a little peace. 1 1 Barney Evans' license to practice law in South Carolina haB been taken away by the Supfeme Court because of his unprofessional conduct while at the bar. But from what we have heard, from first one quarter and another, poor Barney is not the only lawyer In South Carolina who has been guiltfr of unprofessional conduct. The ethics of the legal profession are nothing like what they were a quarter of a century ago. Now that the pipes are full of water, why not arrange to sprinkle the streets every day, especially the two jnain Streets that are traveled so much? an accou/fi in our Sun A , Shew///save you money J Jj- v.: tm / I w-w A man's wife is the best p pives her a CHANCE.

Lee. Confiscated by the Federal Government, after the war between the States, it is now one of its most impressive National Parks. On these spacious grounds many monuments attest the valor of northern heros. Until recently it was not permitted the South to place any memorial stone on a site enshrining the most tender and the most sacred associations of the Southern heart. Feeling that the real significance of this historic spot would not be complete without some reminder of the man and the government from whom it was taken, the United Daughters of the Confederacy begged 4L-1 Via narmUtoH tn aroot nnpl 111 ill LUC; UC pv;i niivLvvt iv vi v?v v..v shaft, among the many Northern ones, that should stand as a lasting memorial of the army and nary of the whole Confederacy ? knowing that this would be in accord with the modesty of the great man who gave wealth. service, everything for the benefit of his dear Southern country. Four years ego this request was granted by the National Government, and the Daughters threw their whole energy into raising funds for a monument. It should be a worthy one, they said. Fifty thousant dollars was the least that it should cost. But this would have been much greater had not Sir Moses Ezekiel, a famous sculptor now living in Rome Italy, but who in those davs that trie:l men's soul, had been a Confederate soldier under Lee?if he had net offeied his work as a designer free of all charge to the Daughters. His time and talent he gladly gave to honor the cause he loved. Wrought by the hand of a Con fedate veteran, embodying all the tender love and exhaulted patriotism that made the soldie-s of the South unique among military heroes, it is a fine and beautiful tribute to .Southern valor and loyalty.

In our earnest desire to secure this lasting tribute to our Confederacy before it is too late and place it on the spot most fitting for it to stand, we are now asking all the Southern men and women to join hands with us in raising this last $18,000 dollars. All contributions, from the "widow's mite" to the millionaire's check, will be gladly received by Mrs. P. B. Huntley, of the Cheraw Chapter, Cheraw, S.

Should one any find it more convenient to leave their contribution with Miss Mable Mclver, she will receive and forward it to Mrs. Huntley. The throwing of water over the city hall building this morning through a fifty-foot ?ection of hose, certainly looked good?especially to "us" who have worked so long and so persistently for water in Cheraw.Children's Day at Union. The Sunday school at Uuio.: church will observe Children's Day next Sunday. This will indeed be a big day at Union. This school is one of the largest country Sunday schools in the State. Last year it won the Banner given each year by the South Carolina Conference to the school showing the greatest progressiveness along all lines. Mr. John McDonald wins superintendent of this school for forty years, and when he moved to Bethune, Mr. Jno. G. Grant was made superintendent. Mr. Grant is a progressive, wide-awake!

"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. Sold by all dealers. il "PERSONAL USE* SHIPMENTS MUST STOP. Assistant Attorney General Contends That Llqnor Can Only Be Shipped to Dispensaries. I Columbia, May 12.?That any shipment of liquor into South Carolina whether for personal use or otherwise, is prohibited by the Webb law, recently enacted by Congress, a4 applied to the whiskey laws of this State, is the position taken;'by the State of South Carolina in a brief filed in the supreme court here today by Assistant Attorney General Fred. H. Dominick. If this position should be sustained by the Courts, in the construction of the Webb law, even bona fide "personal use" shipments of liquor from without the State will be prohibited. It is now against the law to ship liquor from one point in this State to another point in the State, and under the assistant attorney general's construction, the only way for a man to purchase liquor in South Carolina will be to buy in person from a dispensary. Faint-Wise is to paint when your property nee.lv; it Paint-foolish is to wait for the price to go down. But so many are foolish*, they'll wait a good while. The whole rise in the cost of a job is 10 percent. The first year's drop won't be more than half that, more likely a quarter. Waiting for 5 percent, more likely 2%. The average job (with Devoe) is < $50: 5 percent. $2.50. Put it off for $2.50? Guess not. , You think of that job as $100. So it j is with inferior paint. Paint Devoe; do it now, If your property needs it. DEVOE. , Ladd's Drug Store sells It. STOCKHOLDERS MEETING.
