Good Health to the Children Children especially are fond of dainties, and the housekeeper must look carefully to their food. As good cake can be made only with good eggs, so also a cake that is health ful as well as dainty must be raised with a pure and perfect baking powder. Royal Baking Powder is indispensable in the preparation of the highest quality of food. It imparts that peculiar light ness, sweetness and flavor noticed in the finest cake, biscuit, doughnuts, crusts, etc., ancl what is more important, renders the food wholesome and agreeable to young and old. rOYAL DAKINQ POWDER CO., NEW YORK. - Mr. A. W. Anderson Is Promoted. Wilmington, N. C, March 22.- It was officially stated tonight that A. W. Anderson, of Augusta, would succeed W. N. Royall as general superintendent of the first division of the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. Mr. Anderson will arrive in Wilmington at midnight to confer with Mr. Royall tomorrow. G. G. Lynch, of Charleston, succeeds Mr. An derson. Both appointments are effective April 1st. A successor to Mr. Lynch has not i been named: Both Capable Men. Mr. Lynch is known only by reputa tion in Augusta, but he has been with the Atlantic Coast Line for years having grown up with the system, and is known as one of the most capable transporta tion men in the country. He will prove a worthy successor to Mr. Anderson, and while Augusta will regret the change which carries the former away, they will accord a warm welcome to the lat ter, and he, it is confidently predicted, will keep the Charleston and Western Carolina up to the high standard which it has attained in the railroad world. ?

This Statement Will Interest Scores of Laurens Readers. The facts given below are worth a perusal by all who are anxious about their physical condition or are similarly situated to this resident of Laurens. It is a local occurrence and can be thor oughly investigated. James Vincent, a mill hand, living on Factory Hill, says : "Doan's Kidney Pills did my back and kidneys a lot of good. I have suffered for several yea/8 with backache, and nobody knows what it is but those who have had it. 1 thought I was doomed to pass the bal ance of my life with it, but I am thank ful to say that since I used Doan's Kid dey Pills I have not had the backache once. Before I used them I had it about all the time, night and day, and the constant dull aching across the small of my back was sometimes so bad I could not get about at all and it kept me awake all night. Nothing I did gave me relief, although I did everything I knew?put on liniments and wore plas ters?but nothing helped me until I got Doan's Kidney Pills at the Palmetto Drug Company's store. They did the work and cured me. Since taking them my health has been better than during the last fifteen years." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Company, Ruffalo, N.

"They act gently and without any unpleasant ef fect, and leave the bowels in a per fectly natural condition. Sold by The Laurens Drug Co. and Dr. B. F. Posey. Confederate Flags. "Cheerful things do happen," insists Collier's for March 25. "The vote of Congress, a month or so ago, to return Confederate flags, was one of them. It shows how much the North has improved in temper since 1887. The South is im proving, too. Stupid arrogance on one side and blind haughtiness on the other, have given away to human decency and some comprehension that the shield has two sides. Congress voted unanimously to restore the Confederate battle flags. Why should any man of heart object to the memories that are so deeply burned into men and women of the South? If their cause was mistaken, it was not less nobly upheld, and the deaths and privations which were endured for its sake were not less real. When Mr. Cleveland wished to return these flags, Governor Foraker of Ohio opposed the measure, not, as be elegantly explained 'that I have any affection for the dirty rags, but because they are emblems of treason, and are wanted for no other purpose than public parade, and to (ire the, Southern hearts with pride for a lost cause that ought never to be re called except witli shame, because the crime of the age.' Poraker introduced the bill providing that the Government mark the graves of the Confederate soldiers buried in the North. He has improved, along with the rest of us.? The Hag incident, continues to give sat isfaction everywhere, and it refreshes us to dwell part of the time on such in dications of a spiritually better state." Vagrancy. Mr. Editor ? There seems to be a crusade against vagrancy. We scarcely pick up a newspaper that does not con tain something on that subject. The cities and the small towns seem alike infested with vagrants. Now Mr. Editor this crusade was not begun too soon. A person who does nothing is worth nothing to a community even if he has the means upon which to live, but the law gives him that right if he is the possessor of the means. Hut the man who has no visible means of support and yet will not work, can, and ought to be made to work under the town or county supervision. You can find a gang of negro loafers in this city any time, no one of whom can you hire to do a day's work at any price; they are living at the expense of some white man's kitchen, and the nickels and dimes they can pick up on small jobs go into the "crap" or pool games. It is among this class that the city has largely to bestow its charities in winter. When they can work they won't work and when no one can work they area charge on the municipality. Au thorities should make inventory of such characters and require them to specify J where they work and verify their report I by the testimony of the party claimed to have furnished the employment. A lot of them claim that they can ( not get employment, but the trouble is they want 25cts. the hour for only or dinary labor, when they know they can j not earn it. Besides if the work is not here the farmers in the country need the labor and will be glad to pay a fair price for it, and further Mr. Editor in the country you find no body starving with hunger or cold, and begging the Supervisor for a load of wood or a sack of flour. "Citizen" CHAMPION LINIMENT FOR RHEU MATISM. ("has. Drake, a mail carrier at Chap inville, Conn., says: "Chamberlain's Pain Halm is the champion of all lini ments. The past year I was troubled a great deal with rheumatism in my shoulder. After trying several cures the .storekeeper here recommended this remedy and it completely cured me." There is no use of anyone suffering from that painful ailment when this liniment can bo obtained for a small sum. One application gives prompt relief and its continued use for a short time will pro duce a permanent cure. For sale by Laurens Drug Co., and Dr. R. F.

It fails to "make good," and if he is half as smart as most people expect the doctor to be, he'll soon suspect that the drugs used for filling the prescription were of inferior quality, stale or impure. Neither angels nor men can cure disease with improper medicines. Our prescription department is always accurate, always careful.
