ELECTION DAY IN NEWBERRY Passed Off Pleasantly and Qutetly-No special Incidents. The first primary in Newberry Coun ty passed off pleasantly and quietly and without special incident. Probably there has never been as quiet an elec tion where there was as much interest in the result. The vote was not as heavy as was expected. Two years ago Mr. Sease received 2,277 votes in this county in his race without opposition for Solici tor. The total this year reached 2,104, a decrease of 173. This decrease is probably mainly due to the rain that began falling about noon. The official count is given on the first page of this issue. There are few changes in the figures as given by The Herald and News and The Observer on the night of the election, and these changes do not affect the result. The returns came in a little more slowly than usual, due also to the rain. How ever, the interest of the crowd who watched the bulletins was not in the least abated, and favorites were lustiiy cheered. For the House of Representatives Hon. Arthur Kibler was re-elected. Messrs. Aull, Banks, Higgins and San ders will be in the second race. Mr. E. S. Werts was re-elected Superintendent of Education over both of his opponents. Messrs. W. W. Hodges and J. C. Wilson will go into the second race for Probate Judge, as will Messrs. J. M. Schumpert and J. Y. Floyd for Super visor. Mr. 'John L. Epps was re-elected Treasurer, and Mr. W. W. Cromer Auditor over both opponents. In the second race for County Com missioner will be Messrs. Benjamin Halfacre, G. S. Moore, J. M. Nichols and W. H. Wendt. Messrs. J. H. Chappell and C. B. idwell will run over for Magistrate of rownships 1, 2 and 8. The magistrates 'nominated for the arious other townships are as follows: No, 3-T. P. Adams. No. 4-F. W. Fant. No. 5-W. C. Sligh. No. 6-J. H. Williams. No. 7-J. W. Ropp. No. 9-B, B. Hair. No. 10-P. B. Ellisor. No. 11-W. F. Suber. The new court house was lost.

Another ridiculous food fad has been branded by the most competent authori ties. They have dispelled the silly no tion that one kind of food is needed for brain, another for muscles, and still another for bones. A correct diet will not only nourish a particuiar part of the body, but it will sustain every other part. Yet, however good your foodi may be, its nutriment is destroyed by indigestion or dyspepsia. You must prepare for their appearance or pre vent their coming by taking regular doses of Green's August Flower, the favorite medicine of the healthy mil lions. A few doses aids digestion, stimulates the liver to healthy action, purifies the blood, and makes you fee] buoyant and vigorous. You can get this reliable remedy at Get Geen's Snpeial Almanac.
