Robert Quillen in Fountain Inn
Tribune
"hast week a Greenville concern
advertised a .showing- of bathing
suits on live models and at once
brought down about its ears the
wrath of the club women of the city.
The wonu n said the project was im
moral.' suys the Fountain Inn (S. ('.)
Tribune.
"When Caesar arrived in Germany
he found boys and girls eighteen
year's old bathing in rivers together,
stark naked. He found, also, a high-'
. er standard of virtue than he was
accustomed to at Home.. In modern
I Russia the poor of both sexes bathe
together without the formality of
bathing sums.
"Many savage peoples that have
little acquaintance with clothing have
standards of virtue that would shame
civilization.
"The truth is that clothing has very
little to ^o with decency.
"And the further truth is that the
accustomed loses its power to afford
a kick or create excitement.
"If a gal had appeared in public in
a modern bathing suit when I was a
T>oy7^ur^woTrfd have ? created more
disturbance than an earthquake. At
that time it was vulgar even to think
of a woman as a biped. The word
'ankle' was naughty, and none .^but
the depraved dared to say 'leg/ .
"Times have changed. People have
acquired a little more sense. Ankles
too often seen have lost their power
to thrill; bare knees occasion no ex
citement; everybody knows just how
a woman is shaped and nobody gives
a darn. Few of the shapes are worth
a second glance, anyway.
"If all the world should peel off its
clothing there would be a pretty
pother for a month or so; and then
everybody would get accustomed to
new order of. things and yawn in
the face of the world's prize winning
thirty-six."
Thirty-three dead and more, than>j
one hundred injured, many seriously, ;
were the casualties in the wreck of
an immigrant train on the Delaware, j
Lackawanna and Western railroad
near Hackettstown, N. J., early Tues
day morning. The train ran into a
gravel washout caused by a violent
rainstorm. One hundred and eighty
two passengers, immigrants of a for
mer day who had become prosperous
in the corn belt and were on their
way to visit homelands across the
sea, were hurled into the maelstrom
of death and, injury as coach piled
upon coach and scalding steam from
the bursting engine added torture.
SEEMS LIKE A MIRACLE
TOG HUE worn
WI Never In My Life, Saw
Anything Like This N ew
Medicine, Karnak/* De
clares Mrs. Williams.
East, west, north and south, all
over North and South Carolina,
people by the hundreds are taking
the sensational medicine, Karnak,
and reporting remarkable results in
the ? way of returned health,
strength and energy.
Statements such as that of Mrs.
G. W. Williams, of 308 Smith St.,
Charlotte, N. C., are being heard
on all sides every day.
"It just seems like a miracle to
me to be feeling so good after all
my miserable suffering," says Mrs.
Williams. "Why, I was telling
some of my neighbors the other
day that Karnak had made me feel
*o fine that I would like to go to
an old-fashioned dance and show
the young people how to step
around npram. ~ j - -
? "You wouldn't it ?e*
me now, but before I started tak
ing Karnak, my beck wme- giving
me so much trouble that I could
hardly bend over and straighten up
again without the most excruciat
ing pains. I was in a bad run
down condition and my food didn't
seem to give me any strength.
"I would often have weak, fainty
spells and my work was just a
drag.
"I was fortunate enough about
this time to get some of the Kar
nak that first came to Charlotte,
and this grand new medicincf gave
me instant relief. Why, I began to
feel good results after the very
first day's treatment, and now I am
feeling 20 years younger.
"I can do a hard day's work
now without feeling the least bit
tired, and I haven't a sign of an
ache or a pain.
"I am talking Karnak all the
time to my friends, and if anyone
wants to Imow what I think of this
new medicine, all they have got to
do i a ask me."
? Karnak is sold in Camden ex
clusively by Zemp A DePaaa and by
the leading druggist in every town.

SHOOK FI8T AT JUDGE

Says Scuse in Tatming Sentence on
Prohibition Violator
SpurUnburg, June 15. "You have
us good as flaunted your fist in the
face of thy judge and Wilton H
Kurle told him to go to hell, when
you disregarded his remarks made
at the fall term of court when he
sentenced you to serve twelve months
at hard labor or a fine of $500 and
suspended it upon good behavioi, b>
'turning around and violating the |>io
?hibition law again," said Judge T. S.
Sease of Spartanburg, presiding at
jjthu' court of general sessions, when
he sentenced Carl Wall of near Boil
"inR* Springs on a charge of violating
; the prohibition law, in which he had
pleaded guilty. i
"A suspended sentence is not a
scrap of paper to be disregarded, al
though some people seem to think it
'such. You were sentenced last fall
to serve J 2 months at hard labor or
pay a fine of $500, all of which was
suspended upon the payment of a fine
of $100. Since that time, you have
been cftught again with half a gallon
and 24 pint bottles of whiskey.
"You have trampled upon the
majesty of the law and have as good
as spat upon its counsel. The arm
of the law is strong and will reach
you eventually, even though it is
sometimes slow in overtaking you.
Judge Earle was lenient with you
an 1 you have had your chance. I
am going to impose the sentence that
he suspended of 12 months at htard
labor or a Vine of $500. and in ad
dition a sentence of six months and
a fine of $1,000 to he served con
currently with the first one, this
sentence to go into effect immediate
ly," said Judge ^Sease.
Blowing Florida Babbles
The human biped is a natural born
gambler. He believes in taking a
chance. He craves something for
nothing. The thorny^nd rocky patn
to success has ivo charms lor the ma
jority. Speculating has drawn its
heavy toll" from the gamesters but
much heavier indirectly, from the in
nocent. It would amaze .the public
to know how much bogus stock, for
instance, was bought at flush" times
on the other peoples money and which
the latter had to* pay in the long run,
Now, the clarion call is to Florida.
Marvelous tales are being broadcast
ed about the huge fortunes that are
piled up by buying Florida real es
tate. A lot of this is true, but most
of it is "hot air," or will be, soon.
A similar boom was* staged there 40
years ago. Maily that could rake up
a few thousands went down to pick
up some easy money. We know of a
few who still have crazy quilts of
those sand dunes on their hands.
They tell us that millionaires are be
hind this bubble. Millionaires ale
usually, no fools, and know when to
quit. The bladder is going to be
punctured, and it may happen any
day. When the crash comes, woe be
unto the sheared lambs, that have lit
tle wool to spare. We have nouloubt
that many have plucked some juicy
plums. The vast majority of fly-by
flight light weights will hit the sand
with a thud. As it is with gamblers
on the cotton curb, you will only hear
of the few who strike the market
right. The vast majority of picked
geese do no squaking. This restless,
speculative bug that .is biting the hu
man family has had much to do with
our plight today. Investigate the
wrecks on the beach; the victims of
suicidal graves; the white collar gen
try in bankrupt courts; the derelicts
of long and unpaid obligations, and
you will find 99 times out of a hun
dred that speculation, idleness or ex
travagance brought on the disease
that hurled them into the carnel
house of failure, disgrace and des
truction.? St. Matthews Times.
800,000 Wild Horses
Frank R. Kent, of the Baltimore
Sun, tells his readers that the state
of Montana is taking measures to
kill 800,000 outlaw horses now run
ning wild in the prairie lands of that
commonwealth. lie says that three
years ago the cattle business "blew
up" and ranchers sold their cattle,
turning horses loose on the range.
It is now estimated that these wild
horses number 800,000.
This condition will be hard to pic
ture in many eyes. So vast is the
United States and so varied her
states that the average citizen has
only a hazy idea of the different ec
onomic conditions existing. That
800,000 horses should be running
wild in any state is a thing that
most easterners will attribute to a
good imagination.

Pains
Very Severe
"I suffered from womanly
trouble* which grew worst*
and worse as the months
went by," saya Mrs. L. H.
Cantrell, of R. t\ D. 9, Gaines
ville, Georgia.
"I frequently had very
severe pains. These were so
bud that 1 was forced to go
to bed and atay there. It
seemed to me my back would .
come In two.
CARDUI
For Female Troubles
"1 taught school for ?
while, but my health was so
bad I would have to stay out
sometimes. This went on till
I got so bad I didn't know
what to do.
One day I rend about the
merit* of Cavdul, and an I
had some frlonda who had
been helped by It, 1 thought
I would try It. I began to
get better after I had taken
half a bottle. 1 decided to keep
on and Rive It a thorough
trial and I did. 1 took In
all about 12 bottles and now
1 am perfectly well. 1 do
not suffer any pain and can
do all my housework."

The tax on cosmetics was placed on the people of the State by
the last Legislature.
The special relief commission consisting of only six men has re
duced this tax from 20 per cent to 4 per cent.
o ?
This tax should never have been put on and those in authority
now have tried to correct the evil.
We congratulate them on their admission of the mistake.
Does anyone think for one moment that Soft Drinktf are more of
a luxury than cosmetics?
You, the consumers of Soft Drinks are now paying one-fifth of
the entire tax for general state purposes.
Total tax for general purposes, exclusive of education, is
$6,500,000.00. Estimate from Soft prinks tax $1,500,000.00.
Who pays the tax on Soft Drinks? 70 per cent is paid by working
people and children. As a matter of fact they are not a luxury, brat
if they are, do you want to tax the working people and children 20
per cent on one of the few luxuries they have?
A $10,000.00 piece of real estate or farm land is usually assessed
at $1,000.00, on which the State tax for general purposes is $5.50.
If you drink two Soft Drinks per day you pay $7.30 tax, which
is $1.80 more than a man pays who owns $10,000.00 worth of prop
erty. This does not include tax you are paying on cosmetics and
tobacco.
