A Staple Medic Fo No Self Respecting Group of People Soould be Without a Good Family Laxative. It is inconceivable in this dav of genera! intelligence that any family would be without a simple remedy for the minor ills of life, for often by giving such a remedy in time a serious disease can be fustrated and a life saved. For example, if at the first sign of a cold a simple laxative-tonic like Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin were given, tne Beginning ui & wmum lung affection or of a typhoid fever might be avoided. And also in headaches. nervousness, etc, a small dose of this remedy would relieve the congestion and replace distress with comfort. Mothers give it to tiny infants and little children, and grown people take it with equally good effect. Thousands of good American homes are never without it, among them the home of Mrs C A Wright, 1831 Pasaoena Ave, Long Beach, Cal. She had considerable trouble raising little Lawrence, three years old, but after regulating his bowels with small doses of Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin he began to thrive and she had no further trouble with him. They use it generally in her home. Syrup Pepsin saves the health of the family, and it saves doctor's bills. It is a guaranteed cure for any form of stomach, liver and bowel trouble, constipation, indigesfNDIANTOWN INKLINGS. Belated bat Interesting News from County's Garden Spot. Indiantown,February 4:?At a recent meeting of the Philosophian Literary society I was appointed correspondent for your paper. I urill therefore, endeavor to keep all of your readers who may be interested in us and our community in general posted on our current events. Our society is the best that Indian town ever had and we anticipate great good to bg derived from it in a literary sense. Our live and energetic officers are: Miss Lois Nesmith, presldant; Mr David Brown, vice president and Miss Bess McCutchen, secretary and treasurer. They are &1 very capable. Farmers of this community have already begun turning up the soil and are getting their land in shape for toe ensuing year. The oat crop promises to be quite a success. Tobacco is being planted all over the country. Nearly all of our farmers are planting twice as much this year as they did last year. This community has been greatly grieved over the illness of little Oleta Wf rdlaw, who has been sick for some weeks with pneumonia; but with Rev and Mrs Wardlaw, we are now rejoicing that she is recovering rapidly. Mi?3 Maude Wilson, of Chicora College, is at home on account of sickness. The young folk are very busy practicing for the play, "The Woven Web," which they will present February 13. Every one is enthusiastic over it and we all hope it will be quite a success. M isses Vermelle and Hannah Plow den of Kingstree spent the weekend ^ith Miss Louise Plowden, our primary teacher. Mr Dave Wilson, who has been quite sick, is greatly improved in healtli, we are glad to learn. The WOW gave their annual banquet last Tuesday night. There were quite a number of ladies out to help them enjoy the barbecue. Mr and Mrs Dave Cunningham of Florence have been in our community several days, guests of Mr and Mrs D E McCutchen. A Philosophian. The foregoing communication from our esteemed correspondent,in some way became mislaid during the editor's absence from home, and it was not discovered until too late for last week's issue, for which it was intended. We regret and apologize for the delay, at the same time assuring our fair correspondent that our seeming negligence was not due to lack of appreciation for her contribution to our columns. We shall try to do better in future.?Editor The Record. a McCollough-Reglster. Taft, February 10:?Cupid seems to be quite an industrious little fellow around here nowadays, assisting happy lovers up the creepy stairs of love. When the summit is reached this artless, tiny marksman takes careful aim and the target is never miss'*!. At each click of his trusty weapon, a couple falls from the topmost round of the ladder into the rosy hued dawn of married bliss.

A bottle can be obtained at any nearby drug store for fifty cents or one dollar. The latter size is more economical and is bought by those who have already convinced themselves of its merits. Syrup Pepsin users learn to discard pills, salts, i cathartics and purgatives generally as they are too great a shock to any average system. Fftmilips wishinc to trv a free sample bottle can obtain it postpaid by addressing Dr W B Caldwell, 419 Washington St, Monticello, 111. A postal card with your name and address on it will do. The latest victims in this community of the shafts of the son of Venus are Miss Nettie McCollough and Mr William Norward Register. 'Twas on the afternoon of February 4, 1914, at the beautiful and stately old home of the bride's mother,Mrs J J McCollough.that the solemn and impressive marriage took place in the large parlor, which was beautifully decorated with ferns, smiiax and cut flowers. The ceremony was performed by the bride's pastor, Rev W I Sinnott of Salters Depot, who preceded the couple to the parlor and took his place. Immediately after this came the only attendants?Mrs J A Mc Collough.a sister-in-law of the bride, who was handsomely dressed in black,and Mr Leon Register,a brother of the groom. Then came the bride and the groom, who stood before the minister and pledged their solemn vows. The charming, petite bride was daintily gowned in a traveling suit and was never more lovely than in her little going-away dress of tan. Just after the ceremony, amid hearty congratulations and showers of rice, the happy couple left by automobile for Lanes, where they took the train for Savannah and other points in Georgia. No cards had been issued and the marriage was attended only by the members of the immediate families of the contracting parties. Both Mr and Mrs Register are very popular and their many friends wish "Nettie" and "Norward" years oi nappiness. Mr Register is a successful and prominent young business man of Trio, and is to be congratulated on j winning his lovely, charming bride. On their return the happy couple will make their home at Trio for the present. W M. Agricultural and Educational Rallies Prominent speakers, representing Clemson College, the State Department of Education and the United States Department of Agriculture, will hold rallies at the two Demonstration Schools in Williamsburg county: At Greelyville on Friday, February 20. At Trio on Monday, February 23. These schools are co-operating with the Farm Demonstration Work on school plots in connection with these schools in the efiort to teach the rising generation practical agriculture by writing the lesson on the around in arowinc crops. This is the first effort that has been made to teach practical agriculture in the public schools of this State. Everyone is cordially invited to attend these meetings?especially boys, girls and parents. We hope at these meetings to organize strong clubs among the children, and to make these schools the centers of co-operative community life. Farmers and teachers will be especially interested in what will be said and ' done. R N Speigner, 2.12-2t Co Supt Edu. Pity the rich, with their troubles.

White Oak, February 10:?Mr M | M Cox spent a pleasant week-end in : Darlington at the home of his1 daughter, Mrs J E Ross. Mr W H Scott and family have, moved to Mr A P Buffkin's place i and will farm there this year. Mr Scott is well known in this commun-1 ity as a worthy school teacher and is an estimable citizen. We welcome ] him and family in our midst. Miss Pauline Cantey, the efficient school mistress, spent a pleasant week-end with her parents at Workman. Miss Cantey was accompanied on her trip by Mr Early Dewitt, a prosperous young farmer-merchant of White Oak. Mr Dewitt is highly pleased with his trip. Mesdames G W and J W Moore of Effingham spent the week-end at the home of Mrs J W Moore's sister, Mrs W E Flowers. An observing eye can get a glimpse of Dan Cupid's movements, and his wiles while wooing and cooing may be heard by a sensitive ear. White Oak will more than likely be the scene of several weddings ere 1914 is relegated to the limbo of obscurity. Miss Mamie McLees,supervisor of rural schools,spent Tuesday at White Oak school. Mr and Mrs R L McElveen of Cades visited the home of their son, Mr B W McElveen, and family several days of last week. Most of the farmers' tobacco plants are up and doing well. If no unforeseen disaster occurs, the tobacco crop in this section will be unusually large. One of Mr B T Eaddy's valuable fox hounds showed some signs of hydrophobia Saturday, and the owner killed it before any damage was done. Mr J M Rodgers of Lake City spent Tuesday and Wednesday of last week in our community. Mr B W McElveen went to Lake City Monday on business. Mr W E Flowers visited KingsI tree Saturday. Messrs A P Buffkin and E Dewitt had business in Kinprstree Monday. B W M. Docks. (Composition written by 12-year-old boy) The duck is a low, heavy-set bird composed mostly of meat, bill and feathers. His head sets on one end, and he sets on the other. There ain't no between to his toes and he carries a toy balloon in his stomach to keep him from sinking. The ducks has only two legs and they are set so far back on his running gear that they come durn near missing his body. Some ducks when they get big are called drakes. Drakes don't have to set to hatch, just loaf, go swimming and eat. If I was to be a duck I'd rather be a drake every time. Ducks does not give milk but eggs, but as for me give me liberty or give me death. Old Folks, Here's Real Joy For Yce Wonderful BOOT JUICE Will Have Yon Feeling Ten Years Younger in That Many Days.
