CHICAGO ASK YCKJR KEWSDEALfcR TREATMENT GIVEN FOR HORSE DISEASE State Veteralnmiriuii Make Inspec tion of the Horse Disease Epidemie in Upper Part of County. W. Ray Powers, state veterinarian, has made un inspection of the area in the upper portion of the county and lower Greenville county in which so many horses have died recently. The veterinarian has suggested in a more minute form about the same treat ment given by Mr. W. P. Harris in The Advertiser of last week. The directions are as follows: ".Medical treatment is unsatisfac tory and practically useless in the ma jority of cases, as the central ner | vous system has usually undergone degenerative changes before the symp toms develop. When the animal Is noticed before the ability to swallpw is lost, a purgative should be given immediately. One oz. and a half of Barbadoes aloes dissolved in a quart of warm water is probably the most satisfactory although three quarters of a pound or one pound of Epsom salts (well diluted) or one qt. to one qt. and a half of raw linseed oil may be given. It will be noticed that these are larger doses than ordinarily re commended for horses or mules. If animals have difficulty in swallowing or are unable to swallow, drenching Is not to be attempted, as the drugs will pass to the lungs and cause a fa tal attach of pneumonia in the ma jority of cases. Cathartics administer ed hypodermically are far safer and of quicker action than those mention ed above and If veterinarians are available, their services should be se cured Immediately. Where veterina rians are not available it is possible that the local physician will adminis ter such cathartics. Heart stimulants, narcotics, etc., are' also indicated at various stages of disease, but their administration should be left to the veterinarian. Posassium iodide in one and a half dram doses should be giv en twice dally as soon as the animal Is able to swallow. All horses and mules on the premises should be giv en compete change of food. Prevention. Do not feed moldy corn or fodder. If necessary to feed corn of poor quality, ibis should be shelled and poured into water before feeding. Most of the damaged kernels will Hont and can be skimmed off. The balance should he mixed with other grain if possible. Careful supervision of the feeding of horses and mules will prevent this disease." When you want a reliable medicine for a cough or cold take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, it can always be de ponded upon and is pleasant and safe' to take. For sale by all dealers. JEW DAVID. By Win. D S. He was a citizen of the city down on the Congaree. He was a vender of Jewelry and a slick talker. He wheedled Brother dim in buying three hundred dollars' worth of watches and table ware. In a few years he had a lot of brass and black spoons. Af ter the war his son came up to try his hand at the peddling business. He low my house, his horse ran away with bis buggy, and threw David out in the road, also his trunk of jewelry was scattered along the road down to the mill. I heard a noise like thun der and ran out to see the cause. It was his horse running over the bridge with the buggy. We headed off the horse. And soon we heard the most terrible lamentation up tlx road, and saw David coming bare headed saying at the top of his voice: Oh! I am ruined, all my jewelry Is gone! My horse has torn up the buggy, and bursted up my trunk and lost till my goods." I called up Miller Woods and we quieted down the boy, got up the half bushel measures and went to picking up his Jewelry. We found it Ion the bridge and in the road up to where the trunk was stove? up. We got him a new trunk out of the store and packed his stuff into it. He lost but few pieces, that fell through the floor of the bridge. We soon had him on the road again, ready to sell our people 18 caret gold watches and Isterling silver spoons.

CORNWALLIS-WEST'S UNUSUAL INSPIRATION Ib tho spirit of William Shakspeare guiding tho hand and brain of Mrs. Cor n wall is- West-? London society fa vorite and creator and manager of the wonderful "Shaksp care's England" festiyal held at Carle's court? This is general ly believed to be true by London \ \ | ers. who declare \ \ that no w o m a n _%_I like Mrs. West. who has made so ciety a vocation instead of the amuse ment business, could possibly show the genius in management and the business ability to put on what is no doubt one of the biggest single amuse ment projects ever witnessed in Eng land. That the Hard of Avon has Influ enced this woman successfully to car ry out the festival that does honor to his memory is believed by all but the most skeptical who have seen the ex hibition If Shakspeare's spirit did not influ ence Mrs. West, what accounts for her sudden inspiration to stage the pic turesque scenes of Elizabethan Eng land at the cost of hundreds of thou sands of dollars. Giving up her social duties and working nine hours each day and many extra nights organizing the big show on speculation. Superintending the construction of the buildings of that period. Poring over works of history and devoting days upon days to the de signing of certain costumes in order to have tho smallest detail historically correct. Leaving Mayfalr and the brilliant court of St. James after a life of Idle luxury and plunging Into hard labor. And, above all, showing a genius In the work which is said by experts to be worthy of the great poet himself. I Mrs. West displayed such splendid genius that many of her friends and acquaintances believe that even with < the knowledge of English history she has she could not have revived those days of tilts and jousts with such ac curacy as she has shown. The story Is most mysterious be cause Mrs. West will neither deny nor ? confirm It. This much, however, is ' known: She spent months wandering over every inch of the ground with Its ^ Ivy-grown cottages and gay gardens that was beloved by the groat Eng lish poet; she spent hours visiting the homes In which he once lived and then took her books and read, and meditated and talked Shakspeare with everybody who loves the great English dramatist and his works. It Is said that when her work was completed and she went back to London prior to the pageant. Marie Coroili <3aid to her: "It will be a wonderful succors. It must be, for Shakspeare will bo with you at the pageant and will dl rcct the show, if you follow his In struction you will be well rewarded, for he will not leave you after the j pageant Is over. lie is with many great writers, inspiring them to do their best, and he will remain with you. If it were not for his great ge nius and that of others who-have gone to the great unknown there would be few writers In the world today. It is Shakspeare and the lesser lights who have Inspired me and others to do their best." Since everybody is congratulating Mrs. West on her splendid success, she cannot forget the words that Ma rie Oorelli spoke to her. She Is be ginning to wonder if there is some half truth in these words, and that she may yet be aided to do j;reat works with her pen. FRANZ JOSEF ASKS POPE TO STOP TURKISH WAR In a personal letter, penned with his own hand, the aged Emperor Franz Josef has made an appeal to Pope Plus to urge Intervention between Italy and Turkey and bring about the close of a war which his imperial majesty describes as a grave danger to the progress of civilization. "In stead of weaken ing Mohametan ism, as some imp "pose," the emperor writes, "the war is uniting Islam against Christiana the world over. Morally it has been a great mistake." The letter was conveyed to Rome by a special court messenger, who re ceived a handsome gift from his holi ness. No intimation was made to the nunciature here, owing to the peculiar delicaoy of the situation and the de sire of the emperor to keep the na ture Of the correspondence secret.
