Notwithstanding the hard times tlie. Herald has spent a lot of good money trying to get an interesting, story longer than the former one to ! entertain its readers from week to week. Take advantage of it, but re-, member that we would be glad for ( you to renew your subscription and pay up back dues to help up out. The square where the new Planters Tobacco and Storage Warehouse is to be erected, put on a different appearance last week when the land was cleared off and loads of brick and sand began to pile up to be used in the construction of this large building. It will be the equal of any in this part of the state. Buckley Bros., have remoddled the building near the town hall on 3rd Avenue and turned it into a nice restaurant. New paint has added greatly to the appearance both inside and out. They were ready to open for business last Saturday. They were in business here once before and have many friends. The town council could not do a better thing' than to buy a good street sprinkler and arrange to have it passed along the streets twice a day in the busines ssection of the city. Noth ing can be kept clean. The dust and the dirt are enemies hard to light without the right thing to keep the dust laid, All rocks contains some water, but some, such as the granites, carry only an inappreciable amount. Sandstone on the other hand, has an absorbative capacity of a gallon or more of water to the cubic foot of rock and is the best water bearer of the solid rocks. The Million Dollar Mystery which will begin in this paper on April 15th has had millions of readers in all parts of the world, and the moving pictures which are run at the same time that the story appears in the paper, have filled moving picture theatres everywhere to every inch of standing room. The new moving picture serial story, Million Dollar Mystery, begins in our issue of April 15th, the pictures start at the Casino Moving Picture show on the night of the 15th, and will run each Thursday night as the story is published until the whole story is told in twenty-two chapters. Each chapter of the story makes a reel in the moving pictures. If you happen to see the pictures you will want to read the printed story, if you will want to see it acted that night in the moving pictures, and so it goes. It is a matter of entertainment for you, kind reader. ' 'V Parrott & Co., has only three more weeks to run, possibly three, but no matter when Parrott & Co., may end, the Million Dollar Jlystery will positively begin on April 15th, ami not only appear in print in this paper, but will be shown at the Casino moving picture show each Thursday night in the Quattlebaum block.

On 1 he With dnv nf Minvh ll-.r> . 1 1 l-i I angel visited at the home of S. V. I Todd and look from him his dear companion and infant baby who was ill but a few hours. She leaves a husband and eight children and a host of friends and relatives to mourn their loss but while we mourn we feel that it is her eternal gain. All was done > that possibly could be, especially by Dr. Richardson, Dr. Thomas and Dr. S. P. Watson, to stay the cold hands of death, but God knew best and took bor to be with him on that Golden Shore where there will be no more parting. Sleep, mother, take thy rest for there is a vacant place in our home that never can be filled. We will miss our mother, but we all have to submit to the will of our father. We wish to thank our many friends for their kindness during the death of our dear mother and infant baby. May God add an extra blessing to the life of every one that lent a helping hand in our time of trouble. May he save them every one in his kingdom. She joined the Missionary Baptist church in her young* days and remained faithful Christian to the end. Mother you have gone from us but some day we hope to meet you or the golden shore where Jesus is, and walk the golden streets where Hi: glory has ever been told and wher; the summer never ends. Her loving daughter, Minnie Cook. ******** * * * UNIVERSITY NOTES * ******** + ? Columbia, S. C., March 20.?Prcf Percy II.

The second series of the season started 1 Saturday, and will continue into next week, when the Gamecocks meet the West Virginia Wesleyans at league i park, where all the matches are being played off. Carolina hopes to win the i series. "Sid" Smith, who has been coaching the varsity baseball team left Sat i urday to rejoin the Pittsburg team for ( whom he will catch another season, i Smith has done good work at the University and has turned out a splendid crew.
