That the entire South STl?er.-; a serious loss in the death of) this gallant Confederate veteran. 2. That our Chapter mourns the loss of our friend and countryman at whose hands we have received many courte sies. 3. We desire to express our approval Wnd pride in his life as a brave soldier during the entire war, and in his cour ageous loyalty to the Confederacy up to the day of his death. We need no better evidence of this faithful love than the empty sleeve cheerfully borne. 4. It is our wish to ox12nd to the bereaved family and to the community where he lived and was loved our sin cerest sympathy. Also, we request that these resolu tions be sent to the sorrowing family, jvjrd published in the county papers, and that they be inscribed in the Minute Book of our Chapter. Lulu P.

Cunningham of the Watts Mills is taken from a recent issue of the Co lumbia State: To the Editor of The State: I see from the columns of your paper the whiskey problem SO'cmS-tj^J;? con" SUming a great deal of time in our leg islature. Cot me say that the gamb ling law needs more attention from our representatives than the whiskey law. I will say without fear of contradiction that there are more young men on tho downward road to hell from gambling on the Sabbath day than from drinking whiskey. I know whereof I speak: 1 have been police officer at Watts Mill for 17 months and feel confident that if our representatives knew what I do iL would boa short time until the evil would be remedied. The law aa it now stands is a shame and a disgrace to a civilized land. So 1 ask our repre sentatives to read that abominable law and see for themselves what a farce it is. The way the law stands now you have got to see the money, and if you see the money, what next? They plead guilty and then comes that pitiful sum of $5.00. The town of Laurens has done its duty. It has made the fine heavy to play cards or shoot dice on the Sabbath day, whether belting or playing for fun. What is tho result? You can go to the woods outside of the incorporated limits and find hun dreds of young men, not 100, l>ut hun dreds, huddled in squads playing cards cards on Sunday. Sunday is the big day. Now, Mr. Editor, let me .,ay right here to our representative: If you are going to lot this abominable law stand as it is, don't ever name weiskey again as long as you are members of that honorable hotly. O. C . Cunningham, Watts Mill, Laurons County, S. C. P. S.?Mr. Editor, I endorse your editorial on compulsc ry education: that is what we need and it ought to bo made a campaign issue this coming campaign. O. C. C. THE LAURENS DRl'O COMPANY TEST. Sold llyomei for Years and Know it Wi;l Cure Catarrh. The Laurens Drug Co. have giv< n llyomei a most thorough and remarka ble test. For a long time- they have of fered to refund the money to any pur chaser of llyomei, if it failed to bene fit. Tho remedy has made so many cures among their customers that they have urged its use in tho most chronic eases of catarrh. Breathed for a few minutes four times a day, through the inhaler that comes with every outfit, it soothes the irritated mucous membrane of the nose, throat and lungs, kills the catarrhal germs, and restores complete health. Its healing, antiseptic fragrance pene trates to the most remote air passage; . as no medicine taken into the stomach can possibly do. Immediate relief al most always follows the use of llyomoi and great benefit is seen after a few days' treatment. The complete llyomei outfit cost-, only $1, and consists of an inhaler thai can be carried in the pocket or purse, and will last a lifetime, a medicine dropper, and a bottle of llyomei. If this is not sufficient for a complete cure, additional bottles of llyomei can be obtain* d for 150 cents. Compare this small expense with fees I charged by specialists, and remember, : tOO, if llyomei does not cure. The Lau : rens Drug Co. will return your money.
