RED IRON RACKET LAURENS, SOUTH CAROLINA We arc making money for you.?J. C. B. & Co. Mf*********** ************** I How Do Vou Stand ? | BY H. CLYDE GODFREY. . M ?. ? ? ?.?. 1?.?;?:?t? **-f Ah most people are aware there will soon he an election held in this dear old county of Laurena. This election will be to decide whether or not the sale of liquor shall be continued. How do you .stand on this question? Are you for or against thisdreadi~' evil which is year ly, yea daily, sinking thousands into shame and misery and at last into per dition? Consider these questions care fully and decide on the side of right, for when you come to die and stand at the "bar of God" your soul will be in special concern about that election back in old Laurens county and how you acted there. If you voted right joy and peace will be yours, if you lived Christ like also. If you voted wrong doubtless pain and woe will be your portion eternally. Only true Christians go to heaven. Can a man hold up for the devil's own institution and be a true Christian? I think not. Christians, pray, pray often, for "the prayer of a righteous man availeth much." I want to bring to your mind a scene. Out in the future I see a great multi tude gathered around a throne. On the throne I see a king as he sits in judg ment. Behold him now as he separates the multitude into two vast throngs, one on his right hand, the other on his left. Let us look for a moment at the throng on the right. See how their faces beam with joy and how they Hhout as the King bids them enter His fair palace. Now let us take a glance at that throng on the left. Behold how sad are their countenances and how aw ful is their wail as the King bids them depart forever from His presence, "for," saith He, "I know you not." As you see I have pictured a scene that will come to pass in the great judgment day. The judge is Christ, The throng on the right are the re deemed who have lived true Christians in I his present world. The throng on the left are the lost who in the world lived ungodly and followed their own devices and opinions. You will be pres ent when this scene comes to pass in reality and it depends entirely upon bow you act and live in this present, time and world how it will be with you that day. We are told in God's word "that if we offend the law in one place we are guilty of all." Therefore be sure you decide right in reference to this liquor questian. Live a Christian life and be ready to meet the Lord when He comes to make up his jewels. August time tells on the nerves. But that spiritless, no ambition feeling can be easilyland quickly altered by taking what is Known by druggists every where as Dr. Shoon's Restorative. Within 48 hour.; after beginning to use the Resto rative improvement will bo noticed. Of course full health will not immedi ately return. The gain, however, will surely follow. And best of all, you will realize and feel your strength and ambition as it is returning. Outside intluences depress first the "inside nerves," then the Stomach, Heart and Kidneys will usually fail. Strengthen these failing nerves with Dr. Shoop's Restorative and see how quickly health will he yours again. Sold by Palmetto Drug Co.
