The pilot of the Heath Airways

the airmen was most emotional.
They told him they were so weaken. :
by laek of food that an attempt to
reach Port George Mission afoot was
impossible.
More and more the tdmilariti.
of the rescue of the Southerti Cross
Piers and General Nobile and his
group on the ice north of Spitzbergen
became apparent. Captain Kings

of their plight they saw several airplanes
pass overhead but were unable
to make themselves seen "
Lieutenant Keith Anderson and
Robert Hitchcock, in their plane the

Inherits a Million
Mr. J. W. l'arnell, formerly of
lattnar. but now making his home at
201 South Sumter street, this city,
has learned within the past week that
he is the sole heir to an estate appraised
at a value of more than a
million dollars, consisting principally
of ca^h* in bank, with a considerable
amount in real estate. Mr. Parmdl
has just reached the age of twentyone,
and during his minority he was
never informed that he was the heir
to this large property. 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. The differencc
in cost is in the manner of distribution.
f Cascade Ginger Ale is put up in 7-ounce green bottles*under the I I
i pet feet method* of sanitation. It is distributed through grocers, drugf
gists* delicatessens ? wherever carbonated In wragrs ace sold t? tho "" I I

d The small deposit required for the bottles is refunded when the empties I

^ And Tight there is where the major difference in cost la eliminated when
?i you purchase Cascaded 'JS ?' >'

)l You do not pay for the bottles, labels, tin foil J
