WAS TORTURED RY
? RHEUMATIC PAIN
Found help at laat in uimple
home treatment
How art obstinate caae of rheumatism
was given relief by a aimple home
treatment la told in thin letter from
England.
I am at tirnee quite crippled from
rhnumatimn,". writes Mrs. K. M. Hoss
of 60 Combes drove, London. "After
one application of Sloan's Liniment, J
find comfort and can move with ease.
I apply Sloan's lightly and in u abort
time tne pain goes."
Sloan'* given real relief because it
doesn't just deaden the nervee. It
helps your body to throw ofT the cause
of the trouble.
Just pat a little Sloan's on lightly.
A healing tide of fresh, healing, germdestroying
blood la sent tingling
through the aching place, and pain,
swelling and stiffness are quickly relieved.
So clean, pleasant and easy
to use, too. (let a bottle toduy. All

. CALLS FOB HALARY CUT
Coventor Would Trim lli? Own In
The Amount of $500.00
Columbia, Feb. 4. -Governor Richards
called upon the gxmeral assembly
today for u general reduction of salaries,
including his own.
'l/i a special message read in both
houses, the chief executive recommended
that his salary be cut from
$7,bOO to $7,000, "and that no official
of this slate, whether college president
or what may be his official
position, receive one dollar more than
paid the governor, and that there be
a general scaling of salaries all along
the line where justice and efficient
administration of the affairs of the
slate government will permit.
A i least two college presidents
would be affected by this recommendation.
When Dr. D. M. Douglas,
formerly of Presbyterian college, accepted
tlic presidency of the University
of South Carolina to succeed the
late Dr. W. 1). Melton, the committee
making the selection agreed upon a
salary of $10,000 a year and that
amount was recommended by the budgot
commission, of which Governor I
Thomas G. McLcod was chairman.
Di. Melton's salary was $.7,000 a
year.
The salary of Dr. D. P. Johnson as
president of Winthrop college is
$7,500 a year.
Dr. K. W. Hikes received a salary
of $0,000 a year as president of
r'emson college. but his salary is
not fixed by the general assembly,
a.-, are :hu.-.c of the heads of the Univei
-it \ .it i Wirithrop.
The g .vernor recommended that
'.ec'i-lative committee study the
whole situation and bring in a report
on the work dum and the proper salaried
for all state paid employees.
The text of the governor's message
follows;
"If there was ever a time in the
hi lory of the state when there should
be an exercise of the strictest econiiny,
it is the present time. Kvery
i ffort should be made to save every
dollar possible i rul relieve our tax
burdened people to that extent. It
is very clear to my mind that there
is extravagance existing in the gov
leimnt in the salaries that are being
paid to many of tin- state's officials,
and this should ' corrected.
Thiie also exists great puity and
dis. ianimation in the pay of the
state's official-salaried f?>i Many
an uceiving too high .salaries, .some
fi w art- receiving too little. ?
'I ui c;c upon y ou the necessity I'm

1 urge that the governor's salary, be
reduced to $7,1)00, and that no official
of this state, whether college president
or what may be his official
position, receive one dollar more than
that paid the governor, and that
there be a general scaling of salaries

Identifies Negro
The following is from the Rock
Hill Herald of Saturday:
Levi Hutchinson, aged Great Falls
negro who was the victim to the ex?
tent of over $f>00 of a pair of flimflam
artists of his own race here
more than a week ago, may not get
his money back, but possibly he will
reap the satisfaction of revenge.
Hutchinson was taken by local officers
to Gaffney Wednesday where
he identified Luke Munis as u?c of
those who had "gripped" him out of
his fortune here by an old "pocketbook"
scheme. Morris was one of the
three negroes arrested in Spartanburg
charged with securing $600 from
a negro widow in Gaffney in the same
manner. The other two negroes were
Yeleased for want of evidence but
Morris was held under $1,000 bond for
trial in .Cherokee and later in York
county.

BBK8 AT WORK
"Oitdrrtakvm" Carry Out the Dead u
Workera Bring in Food
Live bees performing their daily activities
in u glass observation h?Ve
constitute an entirely new and fascinating
exhibit in the food section of
the United States National museum.
Two firms manufacturing beekeeping
supplies furnished the hive and
necessary equipment. This includes
u double gluss case, insulated against
heat and cold, and u twelve-foot glass
tunnell connected with an opening en
the outside wall of the mutuum,
through which the bees pass to go out
into the surrounding parks in search
of nectar und pollen.
A colony of about 40,000 bees are
loaned by the bee culture laboratory
of the Bureau of Kntomology of the
United States, and installed in twenty
standard Langstroth frames by pne
of their bee specialists.
Visitors can see every ordinary activity
of the bees except-those of the
queen, who is in one of the inner
brood frames, hiding away from
light. Worker bees are constantly
going out through the long glass tun
rvel to get food, wMle others are seen
returning with the pollen baskets on
their hind legs puffed out to the
bursting point.
Occasionally an incoming bee laden
with honey will stop to feed an outgoing
hungry bee. An interesting
point in connection with this tunnel
is that the traffic in the tunnel always
keeps to the right. ?
Occasionally dead bees are found
about the entrance to the hive or "fl
the tunnel. A squad of "undertaker
bees" immediately takes possession of
the remains and carries them a good
distance away, out of doors. Other
squad* of ten or twelve worker bees
may be observed aerating the hive.
They do this by standing at the entrance
and fanning their wings with
almost incredible activity. The current
of air created is powerful enough
to blow away particjes of wax and
other debris about the hive. - On
close, heavy days there is always an
unusual number of bees fanning.
The oldest members of Welsh Sunday
schools include one Woman 88
years old, with 86 years' attendance,
and three other women, each 87 years
old, with 84 years' attendance each.

BLOOD WILL TELL.
Coker's Pedigreed Cotton Seed Are Unsurpassed in the Production of ;!|
Crops of Highest Net Money Value Per Acre. [jfl
COKER'S PEDIGREED SEEDS are the product of twenty-five
years' breeding by the most approved scientific method?under the
continuous personal direction of David U. Coker.
COKKR'S PEDIGREED SEEDS have made good in producing.
| cotton crops of highest m >ney value in every cotton producing
j state, of the South as well as in many foreign countries.
i You Cannot Argue With a Proved
Scientific Fact
COKER'S PEDIGREED SEEDS are scientifically bred by the
plant-to-row method and only the prepotent, productive strains
I making a product of highest money value are used as parent
j str&ihs. COKER'S PEDIGREED SEEDS mu^t yield extra quality
I and quantity?otherwise the strain is discarded. It is no surprise,
therefore, that among the five prize winners in the cotton contest,
I FOUR DIFFERENT selected strains of the Goker breeding were
represented. *
Fr.om Regular Sales Stocks
The seed sold contestants last season were from regular sales
stocks. There was no special selection, grading or handling of
these seeds. They are exactly the same quality of seed that every
customer gets who orders from our regular stocks.
Place Your Orders Now *
COKER'S PEDIGREED SEEDS'are being offered for 1927 at
the lowest prices ever offered. Our stocks are the most complete
and the quality of the seed the best in our history. No grower of
cotton?particularly under the conditions prevailing in the cotton
growing industry?can afford to pass up an opportunity to increase
the yield and value of his crops at the small outlay nec
esaary for the best purebred productive seed he can buy.
Pedigreed Coker Cleveland 5 ;il
? Coker's Pedigreed Cleveland Strain No. 5 won the first and ( | 1
third prizes, while other. strains of Coker's Cleveland won second. ij I
fifth and sixth prizes. [ Ifl
There is much (but not enough) interest among farmers, cotton j
buyers and cotton mills in improving the staple as well as the- (j I
production of the cotton crop. Coker's Pedigreed Cleveland Strain ti l
5 is an -ideal cotton for this purpose. It has been widely tested ,?.i
during the past year with the result tfrtft it has almost invariably
beaten all competing cottons in yield and has generally made an j i,
jxtra staple cohimanding one to two cents premium. ^Heretofore, i'
the maximum yields itv most tests have been made with varieties , (
of less than one inch staple, but Coker's Pedigreed Seed Company Qj
have now perfected varieties (including Cleveland Strain B) which 3
not only make maximum lint yields but make a premium staple -1
under average conditions. *-? r|j
Mr. D. R. CokeFhas this to say of Cleveland Strain b: "It is h |l* I
. triumph of cotton breeding. I know of no cotton heretofore intro- , '
duced which will be surer to make a maximum yield and an extra | |
staple. 1 have handled hundreds of bales of Cleveland 5 this Qj I
season all of excellent character. -Not one bale was under one inch
staple and much was 1 1-16 inch, thbugh all cottons stapled slightly
shorter than normal this season due to very dry weather^* f;j
Can the farmer afford not to plant a cotton which holds out Qj I
the prospect of maximum lint yield and in'addition a'prttor ffll
two cents over short cotton ?
Can the cotton buyer afford not to encourage the planting of 51
a cotton which is in excellent demand by the mills and with which Qj
he can earn a reputation for excellent merchandise? '
Can the mills afford not to help introduce into their local tetTi- .9
tory a cotton which will give them a supply of excellent char- jftfl
actered full-length cotton right at their doorfc and thus free them- H
selves of dependence on tl\e West for their raw 'material? - [ 1
