IfAI K I* CHKAP?jP YOU DON'T
USB A TELEPHONE
The nw>s?t useful instrument in the
world to talk over is the telephone,
kut it ain't no ornament for an ofKf
or a residence, We couldn't get
Long without telephones any easier
[than the telephone company could get
Long without u^.
I m i ii "
Telephone rates right after midLight
?re very reesonable, but the
Rouble i* nobody won't stay up that
Re and talk to you, and if you talk
tstation-to-staUon,'^ and she's not at,
[home, you pay whether you talk or
| Long distance is a peculiar anibnal.
If you call Mr. Jones at JonesLie
and Mt. Jones happens to- be
asleep in his office and doesn't think
jto wake up and answer tho phone,
' Central" will tell you (for 10 cents)
that Mr. Jones' phone doesn't answer,
which thing, of course, you have
already found out. And "Central"
will keep on telling you every few
minutes \vhile you ave trying to work
that "Mr. Jones' phone does not answer."
She evidently does that to
prove that she has kept on trying.
The telephone company is mighty
reasonable in its charges for sorvices
insofort-h. They will install a nice
American type^desk pl4ttte in your
jffice for about $3.00, and you can
iwap it for a French type phone (that
is. :!' you want to talk some French)
for >'"0 additional, but you have to
pay :hem 3 more dftllars for doing
he ^..hanging. If you live a few J
rx'M out-ide of town, the company
\.i; you only 2 or 3 dollars
phono service became you
iv. viy out in the sticks.
1 iVi- always found that the tele- j
>(! !' ompany wishes to he reason-!
it'-v nearly everything except mon- j
y m.itti -s. They will let your sparr-'o.-t
on their wires for nothing
and they will not make you pay for
the posts that your peekorwoods peck
down. Of course?if you run your
Ford over one of thfcir posts and
knock it down and bust your head
open, they will expect your wife to
pay for the said post, which is right.
The fellow who figgered out the
last schedule of rates and charges
certainly did not overlook anything.
If you wore to buy a meal in a cafe
on the telephone plan, this is how
you'd do it: First, you'd pay 15
cents for getting into the Cafe; second,
if you moved from one table to
another, you'd pay 15 cents more;
third, if you ordered soup and they
didn't hove any soup, you'd pay 5
cents for being told that they were
out of soup; fourth, after the meal
was put before you, you'd pay 15
cents for it; llfth, you'd pay 10 cents
extra because you picked out your
own food instead of permitting "station-to-station"
to pick it out. Hut
you'd get a gpohn and^jiaper napkin
free?-which, as ' y/~matter of fact,
were included in the charge for\ getting
inside the Cafe. /

4. Don't send your boys and girls
to school?if your crop is all cotton.
5. Avoid preachers and churches

f>. Trade on credit and refuse to
settle up or down?if cotton means
everything to you.
7. Don't use any guano or ammonia
or tobacco.
8. Don't let your wife's kinfolks
visit you.
P. Visit your wife's kin folks .often
and stay with them as long as
possible.

security. *
16. After you have worn your old
clothes entirely out, patch 'em, and
wear 'em 3 years longer.
17. Don't listen at anybody's radio:
it might make you want one.
18. Go bareheaded, it's very stylish
anyhow.
19. Let your mule graze at night
so's he can pull a plow in day time.
20. Plant all the cotton you can
possibly work with your own family.
21. Then plow up all of your cotton?to
the last row.
22. Plant something that will be
fit to eat when you gather it, and
remember your mule and pig and cow
eat most anything you can raise to
eat.
23. Stop depending on the government,
banks, neighbors, landlords,
charity, legislatures, farm boards and
other promisories. Just do your own
digging and then you'll make a living.
And you won't have to sell your car.

Photographs Eyes
To Learn Slayer
!.. it 1
Wilmington, N. C., April 25,?C. T.
Hargrove, deputy sheriff of Columbus
county, today announced he had solved
a murder by photographing the
eyes of the victim, and finding the
image of the slayer in enlarged reproductions
of the iphotograph.
He displayed photographs in support
of his claim.
The officer said he obtained the
idea from a detective story he read
several yeans ago.
Kichard Lacewoll, a negro employe
of Hargrove's, was the victim. Ho
was found shot to death April JO,
with few clues to indicate his slayer.
Hargrove, Deputy S. W. Phillips
and William Smeeden, a retired New
Jersey police officer, decided to try
the ex|>eriment. Hargrove said the
enlarged picture showed plainly the
imago of Tyman Graham, a negro.
Graham and Lewis Blanks, another
negro, were arrested. Hargrove said
both confessed participation in the
slaying of Lacewell as the result of
a dispute over the affections of a
negress.
A Washington dispatch tells of efforts
that will bo made to eliminate

WOMEN: watch your
BOWELS
What should women do to keep their
bowels moving freely? A doc toe
should know the answer. That is why
? pure Syrup Pepsin is so good for
women. It just suits their delicate
organism. It is the prescription of an
ola family doctor who has treated
thousands of women patients, and
who made a special study of bowel
troubles.
It is fine for children, too. They
love its taste. Let them have it every
time their tongues are coated or their
skin is sallow. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is made from fresh laxative
herbs, pure pepsin and other harmless
ingredients.
When you've a sick headache,
can't eat. are bilious or sluggish;
and at the times when you are most
apt to be constipated, take a little of
tnis famous prescription (all drug
stores keep it ready in big bottles),
and you'll know wny Dr. Caldwell s
Syrup Pepsin is the favorite laxative
of over a million jgpmenl

Farmers Should Co!
I
The first annual sale of pure bred 1
Guernsey cattle will be held by Cok- x
er'a Pedigreed Seed Company in j
Hurtsville, May 4, beginning at 10
o'clock.
Since Kershaw county is beginning j
to diversify its agriculture and since )
dairy cows are playing an important \
part in our diversification program it t:
is important that our farmers take ^
advantage of every opportunity to se- \
cure high quality cows to be used as i
foundation stock in building up a val- 11
uable herd of dairy cows. Therefore, ^
1 recommend that everyone interested 4I
in developing even in the Smallest i
way a dairy herd ^hould by all means
attend this sale whether you expect
to buy or not as your attendance at }|
such an occasion will give you valu- v
able information which you cannot (
get any other place. Also it might 1
be well to make definite plans to purchase
at least one pure bred cow or ]
heifer and in case you are not finan- s
cially able to do so I suggest that i
you talk this over with your banker
as you will probably find he will be j
interested, advises Henry D. Green, j
county agent. c
Census department figures just is- (
sued show there has been a decided j

more people are slaying married.
