Capt Charles Petty, a long time editor In Spartanburg, and who writes the Sunday school lesson for the Spartanburg Her ald, has the following to say, which apparently comes from personal observation: "We are always ready to pass * sentence on others for their * shortcomings- Let a dozon peo ple get together, all professing Christians. and int ten minutes they will be passina judgmient on others who ar'e nIot walking ~ circumspectly. We are miuchi more ready to condemn than to forgIve. We seekr to usurp th office of Christ before whose judg ot seat we must all stan4 for Inkats and Children. c me kinl Yes Have Always Sought 4to o VIRGINIA S C "Although I repreAent the t wereign state of Virginia as y er chief executive officer, yet I i an elder in the Presbyterian hurch, and were I compelled to 1 Ive up either the one office or t he other, I would surrender t e v overnorship, b e c a u s e the c !hurch position is-an imperish- c ble office that will last forever a nd ever." .1 The above statement was i aade by Governor William i lodges Mann, of Virginia, in n address beford United Mis- i Ionary Campaign conference in I harlotte, N. C., a few nights E tgo. The statement was made I n the midst of a plea for co-op- t Irative personal effort in spread the gospel. If a man wants to do good I bhe first thing is to be good," I said the governor. "There is I no such thing as hiding a I Christian life. It will make it- I self known. Religion is conta. I gious-it conies by touch. Many 4 a time when in deep trouble I j have been thrilled by the gen- 1 uinely sympathetic handclasp of a friend. Think what must have been the feelings of that leper when he approached the Master with uplifted hands cry in: 'Unclean' 'Unclean!' and then felt the touch of the Christ who clasped his hand, and felt the healing power permeate his body and transform his blood. "The governor told of a Moun Stormy Times Fore casted for Assembly Columbia, S. 0.-Preparations have already begun for the gathering of the general assem bly which convenes the second Tuesday in January, for a ses Bion of forty days. Predictions are being made that the ap proaching session is going to outrival the stormy scenes o. the 1912 general assembly, when that body and Governor Blca-s locked horns in a bitter struggle which saw its culmination in the sensational campaign of 1912. Six vacancies have occurred in the lower branch since it, last met, the most in portlanU, from a political standpoint., leing the death of George RZ. Reombert, who served as adm) iniistrat ion leader. Ihis death 'leaves the minority wit~hout a l''mber, but it is thought th- - &presenta - Live C. C. Wychie will succeed to Mr'.

This being the second session of .the present leorisiature and the last before the campaign of ne~x t summer it is pr'edicted that politics is going to consume much of the time of the law makers. Both bodies are anti B~lease, thel senate by two-thirds a'd the house by majority. l'riction between Governor P~lease and his house leaders on he close of the last session laused his machine to disinte r'ate and his vetoes were over 'idden by greater majorities ;han in the previous legislature. Elowvever, the opening days of he session are not - likely to see ~nuch fighting between the fac ;ions; this is expected to b( ~or the last two weeks.

No wonder the chief magis rate of the state did not yield o the insistence that Henry Jlay Beattie was an innocent nan, afterward disproven by Beattie's own statement.

AFTER COUGHING IWO YEARS Waycross, Ga., Woman Found Relief in Vinol. Did you ever cough for a week? Then Just think how distressing it must be to have a cough hang on for two years. Mrs.' D. A. McGee, Waycross, Ga., says: "I had a very heavy cold which settled into a chronic cough which kept me awake nights for fully two years, and felt tired all the time The effect of taking your cod liver ind Iron remedy, Vinol, is that my vough 4s gene. I can now get a good ilght's rest and I feel much stronger n every way. I am 74 years old." It is the combined action of the nodicinal elements of the cods' liv. rs aided by the blood-making and trength-creating properties of tonic ron which makes Vinol so efficient or chronic coughs, colds and bron hitis-at the same time building up he weakened, run-down system. Try a bottle of Vinol with the un lerstanding that your money will be eturned it it does not help you. ~Ickens Drug Co., Pickens, S.C.
