How to Remove' Easily.
Fere's a chance. Miss. Freckle-face,
to try a remedy for freckles with the
guarantee ot a reliable dealer that it
will not cost you a penny unless it

give you a clear complexion Ute ex
pense is trifling.
Simply get an ounce of othtnc
double strength-from sn y druggist
and a few applications should show
you how easy it ls to rid yourself ot
the homely freckles and get a bean
tlful complexion. Rarely ls more than
one ounce needed for the weist case.
Be sure to atv. tba druggist tor Ute
double strength othlno as this ls the
prescription sold under guarantee ot
money back If lt falls to remove
freckles.

As Officers Scoured Outskirt? for
Loafers But the Latter Were*
Fleet of Foot
Having declared war on Vagrants,
Chief ct Police Sammons yesterday
morning instructed his men to cast
the dragnet far and wilie and haul in
in habitual loafers and others who
could not show some visible means
if lawful support. The dragnet was
thrown out as instructed and before
recorder's court convened at hoon
two victims of thc chief's edict had
been bagged. During the early after
noon three more suspects were round
ed up. Besides that, dozens of char
acters suspected of being vagrants
were frightened into flight by the blue
coats who made a round of the sec
tions of the city where loafing is pop
ular.
Cub (that's Ute way the name ls
spelled on the police court dockets,
and lt is said to be an abbreviation
of "Cobber," synonym for peanut)
Puller and Walter Williams arc the
names of the vlitims of the dragnet
yesterday morning. Upon being
brought before the recorder they fail
ed to produce evidence sufficient to
convince the judge that they were not
habitual loafers, and as a result His
llnnor required of nach that he pay
a rino of $15 or serve 20 days on the
gang.
Early in the afternoon three others
suspected of being in the same class
as Gub and Walter were placed under
arrest. Their names are J. P. Cal
houn, Nick Williams and Dock Wil
liams Their cases will be a" red
when recorder'a court convenes at
noon today.
Several police privates made round?
of the c-ty during the day in search
of vagrants, and while comparative
ly few were arrested dozens were
given the fright of their lives. In
speaking of the matter yesterday,
policemen stated that on several oc
casions as they passed through the
outskirts of the city hey would look
up-and see a negro doing a marathon<
across the landscape. The word had
evidently gone out. the police believe,
that war had been declared ou vag
rants, and when a negro loafera raw
a. blue coat approaching from afar
would piece the greatest distance pos.
solble between himself and the of
ficer.

Keeping Money at Home
In paying out money for anything, whether 'lt be Insurance or shoes, our
first question ls: "Am I getting value received ?"
For a quarter of a century, The Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Com
pany has been giving tho people.t>f South Carolina the very Highest Quali
ty ef Life Insurance In return for the premiums paid. Our policyholders
have attested their satisfaction in such substantial ways that the Company's
business .in this State has increased year by year, until on January 1st,
li*15. lt amounted to within a fraction or $18.000,000.00.
But that bi not all. In addition to the large sums paid policyholders last
year, and tho liberal loans which are always available on- policies, tho
Company has loaned in Ute last titree or four years a . very considerable
amount on. South Carolina farms. In 1912, '13 and '14 the amount paid out
and Invested in South Carolina was $684,799.07 in excess or the total pre
miums collected. The Company's total South Carolina investments, on De
cember 31st, 1914, amounted, aa will be noticed, to $2,224,365.34-an Increase
during tho past year of $446.966.30.. THAT MEANS KEEPING YOUR
MONEY AT HOME AND AT THE SAME TIMK GETTING VALUE RE
