Laurens, S. C.
Dear Sir: Hero's what "wears long
er" means.
D. T. McGowan, Cooperstown, N. Y.,
built a house In '85 and painted Devoe.
The paint lasted ten years.
This looks as If the neighbor's house
was painted three times in eight or
nine years, and McGowan's once in ten
years. We are not quite sure?we teU
the tale as It comes to me.
It ia enough to say that Devoe Lead
and Zinc lasts twice as long as lead and
oil alone. The reason 16: white lead Is
soft and chalks off; zino is hard; and
when thoroughly ground Into the lead,
thoroughly prevents its chalking and
makes it more durable.

MR. JENNINGS GETS
GOOD PROMOTION.
Young Man Who Has Been in Laurens
Cotton Mills Uoes to a Connec
ticut Mill.
David Jennings, who for the past six
months has been designer in the Lau
rens Cotton Mills, has resigned to ac
cept a similar position In the Russell
Manufacturing Company, a large cot
ton spinning concern, in Middleton,
Conn. Tho new place is a deserved
promotion for Mr. Jennings. Mr. Jen
nings graduated last June from Clem
son's textile department and, with his
brother, Harry Jennings, went to
work in a cotton mill "at tho bottom,"
at meagre wages, on tho day after
graduation. Both boys rapidly found
promotion.
Some months ago the Russell Manu
facturing Company asked the Clemson
authorities to recommend to them a
designer and they recommended Harry
Jennings, who was then employed In
the Grendel Mills at Greenwood. Harry
Jennings has been in Middleton since
then and bis brother will now join him.
The latter went to Charleston Saturday
to visit his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Honry B. Jennings and will sail for the
North Tuesday. He has made num
bers of friends bore who, while they
are glad of his promotion, aro sorry
that he must leave Laurens.
ROBBED THE GRAVE.
A startling incident, is narrated by
John Oliver of Philadelphia, as fol
lows: "I was in an awful condltldw. My
skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually in
back and sides, no appetite, growing
weaker day by day. Three physicians
had given me up. Then I was advised
to uso Electric Bieters; to my great joy,
the first bottle made a decided im
provement. I continued their use for
three weeks, and am now a well man.
I know they robbed *he grave of an
other victim." No one should fall to
try thorn. Only 50 cents guaranteed,

Constipation is nothing more {
than a clogging of the bowels'
and nothing lew? than vital stag
nation or death if not relieved.
If every constipated sufferer
could realize that ho is allowing
poisonous filth to remain in his
system, ho would soon set relief.
Constipation invites all kind of
contagion. Headaches, bilious
ness, colds and many other ail
ments disapjK'ar when consti
pated bowels are relieved. Thed
