THE MOTHER'S PROBLEM Of Raising Strong, Healthy Girls. A serious problem which presents itself to every mother with girls to raise, In these days. The exigencies of school life, the hurry and routine of every-day duties, the artificial environment of - modern civilization, make it more difficult to raise strong, healthy girls ? than ever in the history of the world. ' Boys raise themselves. Give them _ oom, give thera liberty, and they will irow up healthy at least, without mu?-h Btorrying. But the girls present a ser Vdus problem. * How many mothers there are who arcworrying about their daughters. Nervous, puny girls, with poor, capricious appetites, bloodless, listless, a con.-taii: I anxiety to the mother. How shall sh* solve her problem? To whom shall she turn for help? Each case is more or less a study by Itself, and cannot be solved by any general rule. This is the way one mother solved the problem. Mrs. Schopfer,5!>J0 Prescot: Ave., St. Louis, Mo., in a letter to Dr. Hartman, says: "My daughter Alice, four years of ago, was a panv, sickly, sding child since she was born. I was always doctoring her. When we comin need to Pcruna she grew strong and well." Another mother, Mrs. Mariha Moss. R. P. D. 5, Chippewa Palls, Wisconsin, pays: "Our little eight-year-old gir. h.ui a bad cough, and was in a general r\a-do\vn condition." She had several ch :t-?rs, who could give the child no relief. and the mother no encouragement. Finally, she got a bottle of Pcruns anil commenced giving it to the child, and it proved to be just what the Heeded. When she commenced talcing Peruna the child had to be carried. Now the mother says she is playing ar-iimd all the time. Her closing words were: "Yoo have done a great deal for her. She is the only girl wo have, and it meant lots to Us to have her cured." These are samples of many letters which Dr. Hartman is receiving, coming straight from the hearts of loving mothers. While the different schools of medicine are bickering and differing a." to theories and remedies, Peruna goes righ '.steadily on giving permanent relief. After all, it is euros that the people want. Thev^oa ar? ol little account. COLUMBIA COLLEGE RECITAL. Given by Misses Williams and Green ol This County. On last Monday evening the first of the certificate recitals at Columbia college was given by Miss Ruth Williams, reader, and Miss B^Mayme Green, pianist. R ^ Miss Green's style is dainty and m tistic. Her technique is clean, her H ial work good, her temperament Bj isical. The numbers were well H osen to display these qualities.

Her first lection from Beethoven showed BB Rareful instruction. In the RoBjB . mance in F from Schumann, she ^B played with feeling and repose. Miss Williams completely lost her I self in the characters she portrayed. She was charming and uniffected throughout the programme.

Will you permit me in your valuable paper to give my views as to a whiskey law in our State, the Palmetto State, one of the greatest States of t he Union? Now, Mr Editor, some of our people believe the great whiskey problem is settled,but not so. In the present condition cannot be settled, either as to n tional laws nor State laws. Our American people are too wise and this age of enlightened people?is too far advanced to suffer our government to license the whisky manufacturers to compound, mix and blend a so-called whisky to poison the brain and body of every human being who dares to drink it, either as a beverage or as medicine. As a case in point, a few days ago the writer had a very sick child and our physician prescribed whisky, and it most be of the very best quality. A note was despatched to our nearest dispenser by a friend to send us a pint of the best whisky he had in the dispensary. H2 sent me "Black Label" at one dollar a pint, and on this label was marked "Compounded or Blended." Just think of this! Our loved one sick unto death and with the price at hand we can't buy even one drop of pure distilled spirits. The old State dispensary, of which the county dispensary is an offspring?that institution of fraud an 1 graft was the pet of our great statesman, B R Tillman. Now, let's see the picture in its true IighL Our Mr Tillman is now a member of the Uni'ed States Senate, whi<h gives license to adulterate and mix and poison a so-called whisky; in fact, our entire national law-makers are responsible for this state ot alfairs. On June 30, 1906, those law-makers passed what is known as the "Pure Food and Drug Act;" still those law-makers allow the mixing and blending of the most important and most widely used commodity of our country. Now, in reference to our State law-makers. They passed a State law that all whisky told by the State must be chemically pure. Can a single law-maker say that this is true? Is it now pure? The writer advocates local option, and where whisky is to be sold in our State let our law-makers pass an act creating whisky commissioners in each county to inspect every drop of whisky sold or handled by his county dispensary and make it a criminal offense for anv one to shin impure whisky into the State of South Carolina. If this be an expensive plan then create a State bureau of examination and a State revenue collector and collect from every shipper of whisky iuto the State of South Carolina 25 cents a gallon on all whisky so shipped into this State, and where the whisky is found to be impure or blended have the shipper prosecuted and fined and the fine paid over to the State as revenue from whisky. When our State prohibits the sale of poisonous whisky then the evil of drink will be stopped. Our law-makers have the power to have what people drink made pure, as they have power to Kit tVio cnlo nf imnnrp frtnH Let all whisky that is shipped into this State come through the hands of those State commissioners before it is delivered to the consumer or the county dispensary. The shippers must pay for the State inspection with the freight charges and this commission must collect the tax through the transportation companies. Then we will have less crime from drink. We have the remedy if properly applied. I would like to have the views of some of the readers of The Record on this subject. Yonrs respectfully, Subscriber. Andrews, May 9. * -g Garland-Clarkson.

A short time ago there appeared in the columns of one of the prominent magazines an article on building brain and muscle by the proper selection of the foods you eat A good many people were surprised to find oatmeal placed at the top of the list of foods recommended; but if the article had appeared in an English or Scotch paper every reader would have expected to see first place given to good oatmeal.
