"In men whom men condemn as ill,
I find so much of goodness still;
In men whom men pronounce divine,
I find so much of sin and blot?
1 hesitate to draw the line
Between the two?where God has not."
THURSDAY. OCT. 30. 1913
The city of Milwaukee has parsed
an ordinance prohibiting gossip. If
the law be enforced an exodus of the
women is highly probable.
Some of former Senator John L
McLaurin's friends say that the
man who beats McLaurin will l?e the
next Governor. A slightly more accurate
forecast might l>e, "the man
who is the next Governor will beat
McLaurin and several other 'also
Kins'." _____
Speaking of a theatrical attraction
presented in Columbia last week the
Columbia correspondent of the News
and Courier quotes Governor Blease
as saying: "Each person played
their part very cleverly." His Excellency
should brush up a bit on
ft
his grammar or get his press agent
to edit his bright remarks.
The Fair edition of the Columbia
State last Sunday well maintained
that newspaper's high standard of
excellence. The paper contained
eighty-four pages and to print the
, edition of thirty thousand required
eighteen tons of white paper. Think
of it! flight nunarea aouars worm
of paper to print one issue!
Wonder how many thousands of
dollars advertising space the newspapers
of South Carolina contribute
every year to the State Fair? Every
county fair pays for the newspaper
publicity it receives,why should the
big State Fair get this service free?
It's all right for the Fair, of course;
but how about the newspapers?
The Columbia Record issued its
first Sunday paper last Sunday
morning. It was a mammoth edition
of 116 pages?one of the biggest
newspapers ever issued in South
Carolina. The Record has made
wonderful strides in progress within
the past few years and now ranks as
one of the leading afternoon papers
of the South. Last Sunday's issue
represents not only a vast expenditure
of money,talent and energy but
also a magnificent mechanical
plant, without which such a journalistic
feat could not have Invn accomplished.
W e are arranging to get out a 1
handsome Christmas edition of The
i
Ilecord, which will lie issued about j(
December 1. J lie paper will bej
al?)Ut double the size of the usual |]
issue ?>f The Record, with beautiful <

space, and we hope to have Lake '

thriving municipalities of Heming- ,
way and Johnsonville also repre- sented.
As the work of getting out i
this paper will be done all at home ^
in our office,it. will require consider- '
able time to do it justice, therefore
we ask all who want advertising j
space in it kindly to let us know as i
soon as practicable. The issue will 1
go into about 2,000 homes of the 1
best people on earth and to say that j
it will be an excellent advertising ,

A bit of horse play indulged in by 1
a spectator in the court room at An- '
derson last week imperiled the life !
of everyone present and especially
jeopardized the lives of Judge H :
F Rice and the deputy Sheriff
who was walking down the aisle
with the Judge on the way to din- \
ner at the noon recess. The "smart i
Alec," doubtless desiring to advise 1
the natives that he was in town and ,
on familiar terms with the acting j
Sheriff,playfully tapped that official
over the pistol pocket with a stick, \
causing the officer'^ weapon to ex- ?
plode and thereby precipitating a ]
scene of excitement that can readi- 1
ly l>e imagined. Fortunately that j
divinity supposed to wait upon fools i
and children seems to have been *
"on the job" and no one in the
court-room was killed or maimed by ^
the missile exploded by the deadly ^
weapon We concur most heartily t
with the oral opinion of his Honor j
that"the man acted very foolishly." T
====== (
Florence's Big Fair. (
Florence proposes to have on No- *
vember 12, 13 and 14 the^biggest j
fair that has ever been held in this
section of the State, and promises
that it shall not be inferior in attend- f
ance or in exhibits to the average c
State Fair, if not better.
Ever}' one remembers how well (
Florence always has entertained her f
visitors at the old J^abor day cele- v
brat'ons and at every event of im- *
portance she has given, and the
public is assured that this fair will
be the crowning event in her record
of entertainment. ^
There is to be an airship there for T
all three davs guaranteeing two as- r
' i .1. ... !. . .x 5
cents uany unless mere is u storm, and
a carnival and lots of free street
attractions for the amusement of 1
the visitors, including a hand of i
music, a parade and fireworks and *
many other attractions. The railroads
are to give cheap rates from
all points.
Take in the Florence Fair if you c
do nothing else this fall for your *
amusement. !j
The fair will lie largely illustra- '
tive of the progress of the Pee Dee 8
section.

in the United States and the surprising
truth is that most cases are
preventable with timely, intelligent
treatment.
These appalling facts should warn
us that after sickness, colds, overwork
or any other drains upon
strength, Scott's Emulsion should
be promptly and regularly used be:ause
tubercular germs thrive only
in a weakened system.
The tested and proven value of
Scott's Emulsion is recognized by
the greatest specialists because its
medical nourishment assimilates
quickly to build healthy tissue;
aids in the development of active,
life-sustaining blood corpuscles;
strengthens the lungs and builds
physical force without reaction.
Scott's Emulsion is used in tuber
culosis camps because of its rare
body-building, blood-making properties
and because it contains no
alcohol or habit-forming drug.
Be sure to insist on Scott's.

Attempted Salelde.
Mr Simeon Harrington, about 50
rears of age, and residing in the
Workman neighborhood, with his
wife and several children, on Friday
afternoon last while in a state of
dementia, attempted to murder his
wife and children with a hatchet.
\fter running them from home in
lis effort to accomplish his inten;ions
the maniac turned the weapon
ipon his own body, cutting and
slashing his head in a number of
places, inflicting serious of not fatal
njury. Harrington was attended
)y Dr W G Gamble Friday night,
vho informs us that the man is still
iving, but in a pecarious condition
ind little hope of recovery is enterained.
'
Everything is in readiness for the
noting which is to take place on November

vould like for the people of Sandy
