THE HORRY HERAL1
ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK
The War Will Close About July -Tobacco
Will Bring Fancy Prices
The opinion of business4 men who
are keeping up with the situation
are of value now. Mr John P. Cooper,
Secretary and Treasurer of the
Palmetto Grocery Company, one of
the largest wholesale concerns in
this section of the country, is quoted
as follows:
"From a little 'inside' information
or from all that I can gather, tobacco
will bring a fair price and should
the war clase it will bring a fancy
price, and I am of the opinion that
the war will come to a close in July."

Iron in Water.
Half a part per million of iron in
water is detectable by taste, and more
than 4 or 5 parts makes water unpalatable.
In some mineral springs
iron is the constituent which imparts
a medical value to the w%ter, but ordinarily
it is undesirable. More than
2.5 parts per million in water used for
laundering makes a stain on the
clothes. Iron must be removed from
water from which ice is made, or a
cloudy, discolored product will result.
An iron content of over 2 t>r 3 parts
per million in water used in the manufacture
of paper will stain the paper.
Iron is harmful in water used for
steaming, for it is in equilibrium with
acids which inside the boiler become
with tl-in ??noi,U 4-1-...4 4l.^
liV'WVVtU WM) II yvii VIIV I VOUI t till
free acids corrode the boiler plates;
but the amount of iron carried in solution
by most waters is so small that
the damage it does to steam boilers
generally amounts to little.
Waters having a high iron content
have in some places, where they have
been used as city supplies, "caused an
immense amount of trouble and expense,
lor they favor the growth of
C renothrix to such a degree that the
water pipes become clogged with the
iron sheaths of that organism. The
removal of iron from water is sometimes
easy and sometimes very difficult.

CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED
By LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or constitutional
disease and in order to cure it
you must take internal remedies.
Mall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
and acts directly upon the blood
and mucous surface. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is not a quack medicine. It was
prescribed by one of the best nhvsi
sinus.in this country for years and is
a regular prescription. It is composed
of the best tonics known, combined
with the best blood purifiers, acting
directly on the mucous surfaces. The

BIO 3TORM ON ATLANTIC COAST*
Street* Flooded, Wires Down, Trafns
Not Moving Along Atlantic Coast.
A snow storm of unprecedented pro
portions swept practically the whole
Atlantic seaboard. Snow, driven by a I
|
northeast gale, which at times blew
70 miles an hour, held up ocean travel,
crippled telegraphic and telephone
communication, delayed steam and
electric trains and nearly dashed the
hopes of Easter paraders in New York
and New England. I
In Greater New York nine.inches of
snow fell, a record for April and heaviest
of the year, it was accompanied
! by a 60-mile-an-honr blow and early
: crippled all surface traffic in the ci*v
and environs. Hundreds of accidents
occurred. Upwards of 15,000 men attacked
the snow and paid special attention
to Fifth Avenue in an effort
to clear it for paraders. In New York

i proved a boon to the unemployed.
Norfolk, where no trains arrived
during the'day and other places along
the Virginia coast, were hit hardest
by the storm. They also suffered from
lack of wire communication.
Although trains as far south as
South Carolina arrived hours late at
night, Philadelphia and other seaboard
cities railroad officials professed
to see a gradual restoration of
normal schedules.

Alabama and Washington* are following
the Texas idea and erecting
cottages for the teachers of the rural
schools. The idea is to do away with
the old and never satifactory plan of
"boarding 'round," a relic of pioneer
days. In Texas the school directors ,
erect those cottages near the school
bouse and one county has (5 of them. '
In one town the citizens bought the
land and erected the house by public
subscription. This place has six ;
acres of land round it. In other j ;
places the teachers have five and six !
room cattages, live together on the ,
co-operative plan and hire a woman i
to do the housework. Texas has over I
100 teachers cottages. The plan gives 1
the teachers a chance for privacy and > i
a touch of home life that is lacking !
under the system in vogue in other ^
places. It is likely that the plan will i
continue to extend until there is a i
teacher's cottage in every school (lis- i

Hospital for the Insane. 1 have tak-^j
en this action after several weeks' endeavor
to lind the man best fitted by"
training, experience and equipment
for this position; oae who is an expert
in mental diseases and care of
the insane.''
Thirty-Six Years Old.
Dr. Sargent is years oM and has
been married two years. He was
graduated from the College of Phy%
sieians and Surgeon.-. New York, in
19G3. He seiaed f> r two years as an
assistant physician at the Worcester
State Hospital foi the Insane at
Worcester, Mass. For s- me time h?
served as an as physician at
Northern Michigan State Hospital for
the Insane., Traver. Mich. Since
fWl'Rllll !iJ J.Sll'1 II!.
sistant physician at 4 he Sheppard and
Enoch Piatt Hospital for the Insane
in Maryland.
"Dr. Sargent was highly recommended
for the position h\ many well
known physicians," said Gov. Manning
yesterday. "He was recommended
by Dr. Burch, superintendent of
the Sheppard and Enoeh Piatt hospital:
Dr. Mimson of the Northern
Michigan hospital, Mrs. Heard and
Baker of Johns Hopkins hospital, Baltimore,
and by Dr. A.- P. Herring,
secretary of the Maryland lunacy commission."
Gov. Manning said that he had already
discussed the appointment of
Dr. Sargent with Dr. Strait. "I told
Dr. Strait that Dr. Sargent was to
lake charge of the hospital on May
10," said the governor.
Dr. Strait was appointed superintendent
of the hospital more than a
year ago by Former Gov. Blease, to
succeed J. W. Babcock, M. D., who
had resigned.
Several weeks ago Gov. Manning
informed Dr. Strait that it was his
intention to select a new superintendent
for the institution. Since
that time Gov. Manning has been
studying the proposition very carefully.
Many physicians have been
considered. Several well known specialists
in mental diseases came to
Columbia for conferences with Gov.
Manning. The governor believes that
he had selected the very best man
available for the position. He believes
that Dr. Sargent is well equipped
to carry forward the woric f improving
the conditions at the asylum.
The last general assembly voted a
special tax of one-half mill to erect
ie\v buildings and improve the old
ilant.
