It is apt to be rank poison instead of pure spirits that would do no harm except to make one drunk. That it is a most filthy process, and tlvit filthy methods are used in producing comes from the fact that it has to be done as quickly as possible, and must be made safe from the prying eyes of officers and lawabiding neighbors. Tliere is all chances of filth in the keeping of the product after it is made. The storeroom may be pig pen, a corner of the cow lot, the old surface closet, the chicken coop ,any place where concealment can be made effective, and it makes no difference what may be added to the product in the process, it is taken out and sold in the night time to be consumed by people who would certainly hesitate if |Vipv IrMOvir limn If \i/ao - v..v^ i>?*vM nvf? iv ??cvn |/? wviuttn aim how it wras handled before reaching the consumer. "Many men," said Federal Prohition Director, Geo. C. Bowen, of the Florence prohibition office, as he lookedover the reports sent in by the agents in the field, "have more confidence in their bootleggers than they have in their own wives. If the ordinary man finds a bit of dirt in his food, he will storm around and talk about leaving home and getting a divorce, and yet he will dring the stuff that the bootlegger sells him without questioning its cleanliness or purity." "Chicago and Paris are much interested in monkey glands, but here in South Carolina our interest is largely in monkey rum. Monkey glands may do some good," Mr. Bowen added, "hut 1 am certain that monkey rum will kill any one in time if one persists in drinking it." . .-.jtiir LAU impee, S How the trail that is 1 te opportunity of buy ale commences S will be a great savi ve not the space to quote prices < son, but to give you a vague lde have s' and Ladies' ioods .50, boys' suits from $2.00 to $10.00 Jens good heavy overalls at 98c per lirts and drawers, cacli 50c 1.35 per suit its 48c each per suit 95c 1 drawers 48c, or per suit 9r>c 65c to 85c (heavy and warm) eauties any size, only 50c rts worth $1.50 for 98c en's coat sweaters from 48c to $3.50 ill's caps fioni 15c to $3.00 at 48cf and men's hats at 98c arc J hose in many colors, 3 pairs for 25c L Come see the hundreds of b< ?ng Coats, Boys' Odd Coats, an< per pound for fry chickens.

Stills have been constructed of tin cans, old wash boilers, zinc bottles and other receptacles unfit for such purposes. Stuif cooked in these vessels is pois- , onous beyond a doubt, and one would not believe without seeing it, the kinds of stuff out of which the liquor , is made. Watermelon and muskmelon rinds, grapes, potatoes, meal, and other things, usually gathered from garbage cans, are used foi making mash, and into this is aumped concentrated lye, and even the refuse from horse stables, to aid in Hie fer- 1 mentationfi How anyGfi* can drink 1 fhe liquor made from this kind of ; mash and live, I cannot understand." 1 The belief prevails that the illicit liquor made in the mountains of South |' Carolina is pure, but Federal Agents declare they have fond it just as fil- 1 thy as elsewhere. In the old days men used to see 1 snakes after they had over indulged < in liquor, but now they see them both before and after, according to reports i from other states received by Mr. ? Bowen, but he said that he had not found any snakes in mash in South 1 Carolina. According to these reports, Federal Agents, , upon destroying mash, have found in it snakes, lizards, i frogs, rats, mice, maggots and all 1 sorts of vermin. In Missouri, some time ago, a live pig was found in * mash, only his snout sticking out to enable him to breath. . ?o HORRY GAINS State aid is a great thing for some of the counties of this State, in the matter of maintaining the public schools, among them being our own county of Horry. Some of the counties, including i Horry, get more money from State aid than the people pay for school taxes into the State treasury. Among the beneflctary counties unesterflelcl leads with $50,007.70, < with Horry second, $55,770.35. Ocoieo county is third in the beneficiary i list with a total of $53,190.40 in ox- < cess of their taxes for school purposes. | o Government postcards at The Herald office. ,| a|J4|Bm* i \ THE HOKKY HERALD, 00 ??????????y GH1 .

The case was tried for the first time in the spring of 1021, and resulted in a verdict of assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature. From this he appealed and was granted ,a new trial by the Supreme Court an two grounds. First, the Supreme Court held that it was wrong for the circuit judge to fillow the prosecutor to say that he had prosecuted Quince Graham for breaking into his house and he had pleaded guilty of it. Second, in the next place that the circuit judge had used an illustration of the old negro man who pleaded self defense to hog stealing, thinking that it would be a safe defense. This last trial began on Wednesday and lasted over until Thursday. About the same evidence was prer>(l flu Kftfni-n Th defense moved for a directed verdict which was refused and the trial proceeded. David W. Graham testified in substance that he was passing along the road on his way to Aynor and found w pistol in the road. A little later Quince Graham came along and threatened to kill him if he did not give up the pistol; that ho kept the revolver and would not give it up until he got to Aynor and then surrendered the firearm to an officer. The defendant testified that he only said he would shoot if the old man lid not give the pistol up, ,and only wanted to get back his property; that lie had the pistol in his buggy on the scat and it had dropped out into the road.

I Thursday of Court I A terrible condition developed in I rioyds township last Thursday.

I This crime was committed on the I light following the witidup of a trial I n the Court of General Sessions here, I n which Lawerence Bailey was the I >rosecutor against Jim Gibson and I )ssie Home on a charge of shooting I it Bailey some time agj. The case I lad progressed so far that the ver- I lict of guilty had been found against I Gibson and Home, but they had not I >een sentenced, but the sentence was 1 supposed to be deferred until next I lay, and then the court had adjourned I ind it was during the night that the I ihooting took place. I The news of the shooting of Bailey eported as the dastardly deed of >robably someone who had perhaps >een connected with the case of the lay before or at least interested in t on the side of the defense, causd :ome excitement among the officials of he court. Further details of the affair were iwaited about the courthouse last Frilay with eaper interest. It was reported by the parties inerested for the defense that the Gibion and Home parties had arrived >ack to their homes and were at a late tupper when this new shooting took >lace. Ossie Home and Gibson were lue to be back in court on Friday to eceive sentence upon the verdict the Oiry had found. So far as known hese parties were back in the court oom but at a late hour on Friday th^ < entence had not yet been pronounced.
