J . j. , Reply to Mr. Clayton. Editor County Record:? I see that August 19 is the day to vote on the liquor question. That is my excuse for asking more of your space. , Replying to the last part of Broth erWF Clayton's letter of June 30 where he says emphatically that the Bible does not teach prohibition, although of course he replied to some one else, I have taken it up, not because I can reply better than his opponent, but the time is short to August 19 and many of our people do not read the Bible. We will begin at Deut.^cxi: 20-21. I will cite only a verse or so from every paragraph. Hope the readers of The Record will read the whole paragraph in connection with each citation. Verse 20: "And they shall say unto the elders of his city: This, our son, is stubborn and rebellious He will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard." Verse 21: "And the men of his city shall stone him with stones,that Jin Ca aKolf fKnn nnf qutqv o\nl I1C U1C. UV OllOit bIJVU |/Ub UTiuj v v ?i from among you, and all Israel shall hear and fear." Proverbs xxiii:29-35: "Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his color in the cup, when it moveth itself aright; at the last it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder. Thine eyes shall behold strange women, etc." Jereniiah xxxv:12-19: "And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Because ye have obeyed the voice of Jonadab, your father, and kept all his precepts,and done according unto all that he hath commanded you; Therefore, thus saith the Lord of hosts, the ' * T 1. T 3-L IxOQ oi israei; juimuau, mc sun m Rechab, shall not want a man to stand before Me forever." Luke xxi:34-86: "Take heed unto yourselves lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares," Matthew xxiv:42-51 (note v. 49): ' 'And shall begin to smite his fellow-servants and to eat and drink with the drunken." Verses 50 and 51 are sad. See Romans xiii:13: "It is good neither to eat flesh nor to drink wine nor anything whereby thy broctiimhloth nr is offended or is made weak." "In the mouths of two or three witnesses shall every word be established." I have given three quotations from the Old Testament and four from the New. Now, my dear Brother Clayton, if the Bible teaching referred to doesn't teach prohibition, what does it teach? As to the church's endorsing the violation of the Sabbath, if you had noticed the Methodist conferences, n??/-?.mn?;nno Proshvtprinn DUpilSl tnuvcuuuiw, synods and other church meetings, you would have seen that time and again these religious bodies have expressed disapproval of those railroad and whisky sins. We don't make laws for State or church,we only try to execute what laws God has made. Why don't you- appeal to our lawmakers? Why pile it on the churches? There is one answer to it: The carnal mind is at enmity against God and His church. Much love.

They are too languid to exercise,and as a result have appetite only for foods that seem light and tasty, such as salads and other cold concoctions. But these frequently produce indigestion, and with it comes constipation. It is especially in hot weather that women should keep up the highest standard of health,for it is necessary to have strength to resist the heat. The first essentials are good digestion and regular bowel movement, and then good red blood and steady nerves will follow. The best way to obtain these is not by an over-indulgence in fruits, which are often not ripe,or over-ripe, and hence are dangerous,but in the use of a gentle and pleasant-tasting bowel stimulant like Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Use it to-night and your constipation, indigestion and sick headaches will vanish by morning. Mrs Henry Moeller,2958 Lee Ave, Chicago, uses it herself and gives it 1%^*. onrl -Mrc A fl w net uiiiui^u, uuu u?? well,Denver, Col, was once pale and History Early Christian Church. The history of the Christian church throughout the ages is not i only instructive but interesting, and as we go through the different cen- < turies let us consider the wonderful working of Divine Providence in . keeping alive His truth in the dark- i est ages,and,as it would seem to bs, to be almost lost in the ignorance and superstition of the time. This light was kept burning, sometimes dimly and again it would shine forth in wonderful brightness. My authority is from the most authentic writers of those distant days, Josephus, the Jewish historian,Tacitus, Seneca and our own writers of the sacred n ?~x '"o*- fVna ^CnpLUrea. A9 JUSb UVAViV VMV UM?M| i3 the darkest hour,so it would seem i that the Sun of Righteousness chose that darkest time in the world's his- ; tory to shine forth and bring light i into that great time of spiritual 1 darkness. The civil power of that time was in the hands of Herod < Agrippa.who was a great favorite of ' the Roman Emperor. It was about < sixty-four years after the birth of 1 our Lord that the city of Rome was burned and some writers claim that ' Nero burned it so as to lay the blame < upon the Christians and vindicate < himself in the eyes of the world for their persecution. The name of Christian, Tacitus tells us, was held i in great contempt, and it wa3 about , then that the Romans legally persecuted the church. A little before this the Gospel spread into Spain, ] and every place under the Roman power was in a great state of suffering until this tyrant died miserably in the year 68, to answer for all his crimes before a higherv tribunal. Joseph us wrote: "About this time lived Jesus, a man who performed many marvelous things.and He made many converts among the Jews and Greeks; this was the Christ." St . Peter stayed at Rome a short time about the year 63 and, unlike St ] Paul, was a married man,and Clement says was very careful in the ed- , ucation of his children. St John, the " 1 " 1 1 I beloved, uvea aimosu lu LUC L1UOC VI I the first century, and his preaching helped to check the heresies which ' were beginning to creep into the church. The second century dawned under the reign of Trajan, and the Christians suffered greatly during that reign. It was in the year 107 that Ignatius, Bishop of Antioch, was martyred for the cause of Jesus. His letters tell us many things concerning the primitive church. Christianity found mankind in a universal state of sin and misery. The ancient people of God had fallen into vice and idolatry, and notwithstanding the prophecies of the revealed -j rVio Mpssiflh that 1 I wora cuutci imijf, ? , nation, as well as the other nations of the world, was in utter darkness and was kept alive by the dim light | which dwelt in Zacharias, Simeon, i Anna and a few others, who looked for redemption in Jerusalem. Josephus tells us that the world j was plunged into the most extreme wickedness and impiety. Here we ] close the second century, which exhibited proo'fs of divine grace. We I ng omen's Nerves, j I ll'jffh* sallow-looking, but now has a pretty complexion, and naturally they'are great believers in the value of Syrup Pepsin as s seasonable laxative-tonic. It can be obtained of druggists at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle, the latter size for family use. Its tonic properties make it an ideal laxative for women and children.

We have accounts t of one Antony the Egyptian, who founded several monasteries. This Antony misunderstood some texts of Scripture and took it upon himself to live in solitude. Such Jed into self-righteousness and pride, and we regret that the pure faith of the inspired word should have received such a blow by this unchristian prae- . tice. During all this timelluxury at tended by every abominable vice had been increasing in the Roman empire. Civil broils went on?foen of rank were either atheists or sunk in the vilest superstition?the rich * domineered over the poor, and the provinces groaned under their tyranny. Behold in the midst of all this chaos, this corruption, came a doetrine singularly different^from anyr thing that had ever been?a number of persons who lived in purity, and who even loved and prayed for their enemies?these people were the followers of Jesus of Nazareth. In the near future we will continue to follow this history . f the church until we reach the present century. M C M. I | a WHITE OAK] CHIPS. Chalngang Mending Highways? Johnsonvllle's Hospitable Folk* White Oak, July 22: -Mrs C K Eaddy is spending the week with her daughter, Mrs Colee Griffon, at Brockinton. v Rev L D Bass, D D, editor of "The Commonweath", published at Florence, preached an eloquent and forceful sermon at the Eaddy school house last Sunday. Rev Mr Bass ia a splendid speaker, and the large attendance was very much delighted with his talk. , We hope to have him with us again soon. The second division of the Williamsburg county chaingang has recently moved from Johnsonville section to our locality, and is doing some efficient and 'much-needed work on our roads. The officers in charge of the chaingang are: Messrs John and Oscar Dennis, D J McElveen and R C Mitchum, all of whom . . speak highly of the courteous treatment of the people of Johnsonville, and especially the kindness shown them by the young ladies. In ye scribe's opinion, they would have been pleased had the work there continued for some time longer. Rev J M Baxley of Lake City will hold a week's religious service at the Eaddy school house, beginning the first Sunday in August. Miss Alice Eaddy spent several pleasant days with relatives and friends at Lake City last week. Mr J N Floyd of Kingstree was noted in our midst Tuesday. B. W. M. v A Good Investment.
