great is the cost of building the
magnificent new Fisher bodies for
the Silver Anniversary Uuick that
imitation will be possible only to
much costlier cars, and even these
will find difficulty in following

Hut it is not in the matchless graos

that the Silver Anniversary Hoick
eclipses other ears. In fleet, powerful
performance too, the world
holds no equal for the Silver Anniversary

Bodies by Fisher. And the motorpublic,
buying in such tremendous
volume as to force the great Huick
factories to work day and night to
supply the demand, is elevating it
to the prominence of a vogue!

Bogus Check Artist
A well dressed young man stepped
into Folsom's Jewelry store a few
days ago and asked to see wrist
watches. He finally selected an $18.00
watch, and after placing it on his
wrist, presented a $48.00 check in
payment. The check was apparently
signed by J. A. Styles, the proprietor
of the Jefferson hotel at Louisville,
Ga.t on the check blank of the
hotel- The check was made out to
L. Martin, the supposed name of the
stranger who presented it. Mr/ Folsom
took the cheek and gave _ the
stranger the change. The cheok was
presented in due course to the First
National Bank of Louisville, and was
returned with the statement that
the check was a forgery. The letter
went on to say that several similar
checks had been turned down hy that
bank for the same reason.?Sumter

A jury composed partly of women,
brought in a verdict of not guilty in

Half Dollars Soon
He Thing of the Pant
Denvcjr, Aug. 28.~-Half dollar?,
like silver dollars, will be uukonwn
within a few years, according to;
Hubert J. Grant, "Boss" of the United i
States Mints, who was recently on n
visit here. The smaller paper dollai 1
bill, soon to be placed in circulation,
v ill accelerate * the exit of the silver1
dollar, and, according to Grant,
people would rather have two quarters
than one fifty cent piece.
No hah dollars have been coined
in the east in the last six years,",
said Grunt. "The coinage of silver I
dollars has almost stopped too. Wo
did coin between 3 and 1 million sil\ci
doLurs at Sun Francisco and
Philadelphia during the year that'
ended June 30 last, but thut wus not'
many as compared with the amounts j
coined in former years.
1 wo years ago we tried to popularize
the use of silver dollars in the
East. We put io million silver dollars
in circulation but they were all
back in the banks in a few weeks.!
I he people just won't use them, and
now nulf dollars are seldom seen in '
tile east though you will see a few1
in the west.
"We tried to popularize the silver
dollar because it costs the govern- !
nu-nt less to keep silver money in
circulation thun it does paper money.
E costs J cents a year to keep every
paper dollar bill in the country in circulation
whereas it costs less than 1
cent to coin a silver dollar and a silver
dollar won't wear out and need
Wplacing as a paper dollar will."
1 he holiday season is when mc>?-|;
cunoncy is needed, according to
Grant. Ninety-five per cent of the
money distributed during the lust
three months of the year.
i he Eastern mints are, as a rule,
busier than the Western mints. Ninety
per cent of the money in circulation
is east of Chicago. Money is
usually coined in the seotion of the
country where it will be put in circulation.
Transportation of coined
money is expensive.
During the past year, 120 miUion
dollars of Double eagles, 20 dollar !
gold pieces, was coined at the Philadelphia
Mint. Most of this gold was
exported, between 80 and 00 million
dollars worth going to Argentina
alone.
OUR HEALTH
' Guard Against Snake-Bite
These are the days of hiking;
camping, picnicking, fishing etc. In
many parts of the county there are
poisonous snakes ready to strike, in
many instances without the least
warning. ]^o rtiatter how carefully
one may pick his way through woods
and along streams there is always
the danger of ,a sudden encounter
with a poisonous reptile that he may
not be able to kill or avoid. Thus'an
important part of every camping,
hiking, hunting, fishing and picnicking
oiy;fit should be a supply of antivenom
and instruments for applying
it. These can be purchased in a neat
kit.
Ptomaine Poisoning
Ptomaine poisoning is contracted
by eating food that is partially
spoiled or decomposed. Improperly
canned meats, tinned fish, cheese,
sausage, ice cream or milk may cause
it. Symptoms appear in a short time.
The system trys to throw off the
poison and dizziness is followed by
severe headache, chilliness and sharp
abdominal pains. In many cases
violent vomiting occurs and the victim
becomes practically unconscious.
Frequently severe cases result in
coma and even death. Treatment, of
course, requires the elimination of*
the Spoiled material from the stomach
before it goes all through the system.
Special care should be taken
that none of the spoiled fo'od of bacj
terial growth remains in the stomach.
I If taken in time mild eases <*ftert reI
cover rapidly-,' *hile'in severe cases
| complications may develop, thus rej
suiting in long and serious illness.

given to the diet of those recujperat

Five Cars in Wreck
Sumter-Columbia Road
A wreck occurred on the Columbia
road about eight miles from Sumter
at an early hour last Monday morning,
and the unusual features of the
smashup was that five cars were involved,
each one from a different
town, Sumter, Manning, Florence,
Greelyville and Wedgefield all being
represented.
About one o'clock Monday morning
a new Chevrolet sedan driven by
the owner, Mr. Ryan of Wedgefield,
and occupied by Messrs. R. C. and
Minna Dwight of that town, collided
with a Hudson sedan of Mr. D. T.
Boyce of Greelyville which was being
driven by Fred Galloway, Sumter.
Both cars were quite severely
damaged, the rear of the Chevrolet
and the front of the Hudson sustaining
most damage. Kavanaugh's
wrecking car went to the rescue of
the Chevrolet and soon was on the
way back towing it in. The John
Evans Welding & Manufacturing
Company's wrecking truck tackled
the Hudson. They were about ready
to begin pulling it out of the ditch
,^hen a Chevrolet sedan in which Mr.
and Mrs. W. E. Bouknight and three
children of Florence were riding, appealed
on the scene, coming from Columbia.
They slowed down in response
to the wrecker's signals, when
art open Cadillac, Joe Welcher of
Manning, approached rapidly and hitting
the (?hevrolet7 drove it into the
wrecking truck, badly smashing the
*
Chevrolet in both front and rear,
but doing little damage to the Cadillac.
The wrecking truck also received
some damjjge.
Mr. Bouknlght and two of the children
suffered several bruises by the
impace, but Mrs. Bouknight and the
baby escaped unhurt.?Sumter Herald.

Confidence
THE Southern's confVdence
in th^e South's
future is evidenced in its
policy of building up its
transportation facilities
ahead of present needs.
A sustained program of
ploughing back earnings
year after year, the investment
of many millions
of dollars of new capital,
the loyalty of its 60,000
employees, have built up
one of the most efficient
transportation systems in
the world?with a capacity
in excess of the traffic
now furnished by the
territory it serves.
This assurance of ample
transportation faciE
ties is of itself bringing
new industries and capital
to develop the resources
of the South the
Southern serves.
i i i
And the Southern today
is planning to keep its
transportation machine
ahead of the requirements
of the South of tomorrow,
that the products of Southern
farms and factories
may continue to move
promptly over its rails
through its Northern and
Western Gateways and
Gulf and Ocean Ports to
take their place in the
markets of the world.
