There was a large amount of money left in bank and it has been accumulating since 1912?income from real estate rents and compound interest on the money in bank.?Saturday's Sumter Item. An Imaginary Millionaire Saturday afternoon this paper curried a short local i^em, furnished by a young man, who said his name was J. W. Parnell, formerly of Lamar, Darlington county, but recently a resident of Sumter, stating that he had recently inherited an estate worth more than a million dollars, in cash and real estate. His story was that his parents died when he was an infant and that he had not learned that he was the heir to this estate until he became twenty-one years of age a short time ago. It is now reported j that while the young man has in- j herited some property it is far, far from being a million dollars, or anything like that munificent sum. His riches beyond the dreams?ol avarice were only in his imagination. What his idea was in giving out the millionaire publicity can only be conjectured.?Tuesday's Sumter Item.

Such Delicic/us flavor I Everybody agrees there is no '9 better ginger ale The materials used in Cascade ginger ale costs equally as much as those employed in the manufacture of the higher I priced brands. . - 3 The formula is composed of Jamaica ginger, blended with I the flavoring properties of citrus friiits and made with club soda of the required standard for perfect carbonization. It is the unanimous opinion of aii who have tried Cascade that it is equai in every respect to^any ginger ale on the ,_.._9 market, regardless of price. The quality is superb, the flavor : is delicious, the blend is perfect Because it is only a nickel a bottle sAeo I other brands sell for mufeh higher prices, is no - I reason to suspect that it is lacking in any con- I stitoent which makes for quality.
