A Remedy No Family No matter how healthy a human being may be, it is safe to say that not many months are psssed without some obstruction of the bowels-, in other words, constipation, even if only temporary. The bloating, the dull feeling may start after the evening meal. If a laxative is not taken that night it is certain that sleep will not be sound, and you will awaken unrefreshed. Hence, it is important for you and for all the members of your family that a good,reliable laxative be always kept in the house for just such emergency. It is sure to be needed, and when needed you want it at hand. No family that is careful of its health can do without such a remedy. But the question of which ?onrta/4ir in Kai-a nn Vinnd IS also Of Vast &VUIVUJ V V ilMT v V?? M?H.? importance. The laxative most highly recommend- ed by the majority of intelligent Americans as being best for babies and grownups is Dr Caldwell's Syrup PepPLEA FOR ECONOMY. lir Camlin Charges Extrava- j ganee In Government. . Editor County Record:? Can't our State and county gov- j ernment be run at less expense than it has been? Our taxes are becoming unbearable. The taxpayers should make it an issue in this campaign to require a promise from our candidates for the House to do all they can for a reduction in taxes or at least an effort to that effect. If extMvo(rqn?> onnHnnps our State will ! be in a worse fix than it was under carpet ha*? rule just after the war. The writer believes that some of those extravagant appropriations can be cut and no one hurt. The poor laboring taxpayer has to make great sacrifices to meet those heavy taxes. Some of our dear wives and children actuaily go needy for us to meet our taxes, for they have to be -paid or our homes will be sold. If the men who make those heavy and so me times useless appropriations had as hard a time to meet their tax obligations as some of our people do, they would move slowly in making tax levies. Let this tax problem be an issue as well as Jonesism and Bleaseism. Our people seem to think that this Governorship issue is the only matter that concerns our people, but let me say right here, the election of a Governor will not help us: it's whom we have to represent us in our Legislature. Get men that will use econ omy in our State government and that will enact laws that will serve to get every tax-dodger by the hair of the head and drag him up to the tax books and never release him till he pays his State and county taxes. The poor man and the small taxpayer, who are bearing the burden of taxation in our State today,should elect no man who will not bind himself to go to work for a change of affairs. 1\ behooves everyone to be up and dcing. Unless there be a change in some way, fellow voter, it will gradually get worse. No evil gets better of itself. Make the change of the tax law ?issue in this campaign,for that is j the most unjust law in this State. The road law is the next. Vote for no man the second time for the House who does not attempt to k correct those wrongs in our State laws. Also make it a misdemeanor for everyone who tries to buy blind tiirer whisky, for the buyer and sell er are equally guilty. May our . voters draw this line in the coming: campaign. Respectfully, W S Camlin. Andrewy, June 17. A Child's "Fatal Penny." In an article on "The Fatal Penny" in the July Woman's Home Companion, Mary Heaton Vorse de^ scribes the sickness that a child can ^^^>uy ^ith one cent. Following is an ^Afcract: ffl |P'Making one-cent candy is in itself ^^a large branch of the candy business; tons of it are manufactured every year. The fundamentals of the trade are these: to give as large an amount of some sweet substance as is possible for a cent: to make the substance into the most attractive shape; to ornament it with gaudy colors. "It is perfectly astonishing: how much of sweetness five cents can buy. For five cents you may buy six highly colored candies about the size of marbles; all-day suckers/ two t for one cent; a pink, frothy marshI mallow thing, faintly smelling of Should Do Without. sin.

Our great men are the blandest. Our Legislature is the grandest. And our Governor is the DAMNEDEST In South Carolina. banana-oil and shaped like a banana; two little men made out of licorice paste; a taffy on a stick calculated to destroy the teeth of childhood in record time,?all these for five cents. Quite a respectable collection when you get it together?for bulk. Its variety is pleasing to the imagination, and its violet lines are as attractive to the primitive color sense of the child as any carefully planned Froebel toy. "There is, indeed, no question to be raised against tnis canay, except the vital one: Is it good for the infant's stomach? Do you think that the five-vear-old digestion of your child will be bettered by receiving to itself a slab of amorphous matter sweetened with glucose, flavored with mint, and colored with green vegetable dye, the whole concoction an inch and a half wide and three inches long? Let me hastily say that none of the ingredients in this form of sweets is in itself necessarily poisonous; also, they are usually manufactured under sanitary conditions, and the ingenuity of their appealing shapes and the variety of their hues are certainly to be commended, but?are they good for children to eat? "Ur.til the child is ten years old, at least, it seems not too much to ask that the mother should know all that her child eats. It is during those years that a child's physical health is being formed for good or ill. The continual little gastric upsets, choleras, nauseas, and all the other minor ills that keep children home from school for a day or two are almost without exception the result of injudicious feeding. A great many of these ills could be traced to the fatal penny, if we were far-sighted enough to do so." Ends Hunt lor Rich Girl. Often the hunt for a rich wife ends when the man meets a woman that uses Electric Bitters. Her * I strong nerves ten iu a un^ia uiaiu and even temper. Her peach-bloom complexion and ruby lips result from her pure blood; her bright eyes from restful sleep; her elastic step from firm, free muscles, all telling of the health and strength Electric Bitters give a woman,and the freedom from indigestion, backache, headache, fainting and dizzy spells they promote. Everywhere they are woman's favorite remedy. If weak or ailing try them. 50c at M L Allen's.
