**My back and head would
ache, and I had to go to bed,"
says Mrs. W. L. Knnls, of
NVorthville, Ky. MI Just could
not stay up, for I would cramp
and buffer so. I was very
nervous, My oblldreq would
'get on my nerves.' It wasn't
a pleasure for mo ta try to go
anywhere, I felt aq* bad/
"My mother had taken
at one time, so sho Insisted
that I try it. I took four bot
ties of Cardul, and it oue
should see me now they
wouldn't think I had ever
been sick. ? . ,
"I .have gained twenty
pounds, and my cheeks are
rosy. I feel just fine. I am
regular and haven't the pain.
"Life ia a pleasure. I can
do my work with ease. I
give Cardul the praise."
Cardul has relieved many
thousands of oases of pain and
female trouble, and should
help, you, too.
Take Cardul.

Negro Rapist Hanged
Georgetown, Del., Feb. 26. ? Henry
Butler, Convicted of a felonousattack
on a ten yoar old girl, was hanged in
the jail yard here today. The trap
was sprung at 10:04 and he was pro
nounced dead at 10:16 p.m.
The child victim of the negro's* at
tack was convalescing at a farm near
Bridgeville. Delaware law imposes a
death sentence for such crimes. Dur
ing the night the little girl is said
to have told her mother that she
wished she could pull the rope of the
trap for hanging Butler.
With the execution over, prepara
tions were made for public view of
the body, which was left dangling 1
from the gallows. A small gate in
the court yard wall was opened so
that the lino of persons could obtain
a momentary glimpse of the executed
jnan as they passed on. The conduct
of the drowd was orderly, in contrast
to the scones during Butler's trial
when state troops, called out by the
governor, were forced to use tear gas
to keep the crowd from rushing into
the court house.
A Dirty Mean Trick

A State of Mind
One of Florence's livest and moat
uniformly optimistic merchants, and
one of the oldest in the city, by ths
way, and for this reason we are not
giving his name, was very much
struck the other day with a bit of
French ? Allegory taken from the
Canadian Finance that points a moral
worth rememhering. ft runs like this:
A portrait painter sat in his fav
orite cafe sipping his wine. His firat
small bottlo finished, he was about
to order another, when his eyes fell
on a headline in the Figaro, "Hard
Times Are Coming," so instead of
ordering his usual second bottle he
called for his check.
"Is there anything wrong with the
win j?" asked tho landlord.
"Tho wine is good, but I did not
order a second bottle because hard
times are coming and we must econ
omize," explained the artist.
"Hard times?" said tho landlord.
"Then my wifo must not. order tho
silk dress we planned, but must take
one of cotton,"
"Hard times?" rpeated the dre3*
maker when the order was cancelled
"This is not the time to expand. I
must not make the improvement I
had planned in this place." ^
"Hard times, eh?" said the builder
when the dressmaker canceled the
building plans. "Then I cannot have
my wife's portrait painted."
So he wrote the artist and canceled
his order.
After receiving tho letter the artist
went again to his favorite cafe and
ordered a small bottle of wine to
soothe him. On a nearby chair was
the paper in which he had read of
hard times two days 'before. He
picked it up to read more 'closely and
found it was two years old!
If you can't talk optimism, don't
talk at all. ? Florence News-Review.
Historic Landmark Burned
Abbeville, Feb. 24. ? Fire of un
known origin completely destroyed
the "Calhoun Place," owne<i by Mrs.
C. J. Lon, located about two miles
from the city, Tuesday night about
twelve o'clock.
This was ono of the landmarks of
Abbeville and the loss of it is de
plored by the citizens of the county.
It was built in 1846 4>y John A.
Calhoun, nephew of the famous John
C. Calhoun, and foiir years was re
quired for its construction. It was
built of choicest material, the man
tels and some of the other material
having-eome from Europe. Support
ing the huge porch were twenty
Grecian columns built from the
ground up. Since its construction it
had been the scene of many brilliant
social affairs.

Want* Stevens For Senate
The recent satisfactory recovery
from a very serious illness of Mrs.
J. H. W. Stevens will >be received with
great satisfaction by her friend3.
Mrs. Stevens although380 still main
> tains a hearty interest in the welfare
of her town and through her children
is still exerting a wonderful influence
on the destiny of the state. There is
perhaps in South Carolina no private
[ citizen who labors more unceasingly
and unselfishly for his state than does
her son, John T. Stevens, of Kershaw.
If Mr. Stevens will heed the re
quest of South Carolinians and offe*
for United States senate there will be
in that office a man who has shown in
his private affairs an executive ability
as well as a keen regard for all move
ments that build for his section. ?

New Method
Quickly Banishes
Heavy Coughs
? Why be annoyed and weakened by
persistent, strength-sapping coughing
hjkHs when you can, through a very
simple treatment, quickly stop all iirt
tation and very often banish the trouble
entirely in 24 hours?
This treatment is based on the fa
mous prescription known as I)r. King's
New Discovery for Coughs. You take
?ust one teaspoonful at bed ? time and
told it in your throat for 15 or 20 sec
onds before swallowing it. The pre
scription has a double action. It not
only soothes and heals soreness and
irritation, but it quickly removes the
phlegm and congestion which arc the
rxU causa of night coughing. Thus,
with the throat soothed nnu cleared,
coughing stops quickly and you sleep
all night undisturbed.
Dr. King's New Discovery is for
coughs, cheat colds, sore throat, hoarse
ness, bronchitis, spasmodic croup, etc.
Fine for children as well as grown
ups?no harmful drugs. Economical,
too, a9 the dose is only one teaspoon

Seminary Student Seemed To II?ve
Been Winner With Women
Atlanta, Feb. 25..? Investigators of
the marital adventures of Noel Cobb,
Anderson youth, today were wonder
ing how much territory the seem
ingly ever-rwidening circle of his act-1
ivitiea would, envelop. Already ten
cities in six states have been involved.
NewB dispatches today haji revealed
knowledge of him . in the following
cities, arranged as nearly in chron
ological order as possible, according
to his activities:
Anderson, S. C., his home, where
his father's family is well known and
highly respected. ' j
Columbia, S. C., where he attended
for one. year the University of South
Carolina.
Nrihville, Tenn., where he was a
theological student at Vanderbilt Uni
versity, and where he met. Miss Mar
garet Farmer, pretty Dothan, Ala.,
student, at Peabody College.
Jeffersonville, Ind., where he is be
lieved to have gone through a fako
marriage ceremony with Miss Farm
er, following a whirlwind courtship.
Louisville, Ky., where he attended
the Presbyterian Theological semi
nary.
Dothan, Ala., where he went with
his bride and was received by her
family and filled for one Sunday the
pulpit in the First Presbyterian
church, and which city he was asked
to leave by Miss ? Farmer's father,
following suspicions.
Birmingham, Ala., where he pre
sented himself to church officials and
officials of tho Birmingham Southern
College as a French diplomat, and
obtained letters of ? introduction to
students of divinity at Emory Uni
versity, in Atlanta.
Atlanta, Ga., where he presented
the letters and was well received by
Emory students and introducedl by
them to their acquaintances, and
where he was found three weeks later,
unconscious on the streets, suffering
from a strange mental malady, later
pronounced dinientia praecox.
Decatur, Ga., wher' he met Miss
Virginia Hollingsworth, another
pretty young girl, a student at Agnes
Scott college and inaugurated a whilr
wind courtship culminating in their
marriage.
Chattanooga, Tenn., to which city
he eloped with Miss Hollingsworth
and where they were married follow
ing a two-day courtship.
Cobb now in in a sanitarium in an
unnamed North Carolina city, where
he was taken by his mother follow
ing his collapse here.
Noel Cobb, of Anderson, S. C ,
whose marital adventures in Alabama
and Georgia have aroused interest
throughout the South, is a patient in
the Highland hospital in Asheville for
nervous disorders, it was learned to
