AVW>?? j The bean business has been brisk here this week, notwithstanding the fact that the bottom fell out of prices the latter part of last week. It is said that upwards of thirty car loads have been shipped so far this week by fast freight from Gourdins, v ^ Lares, Salters, Kingstree and Cades. Besides these, large shipments have been made daily by express from each of the above localities. The present low price is believed to be due to the marketing of a large crop from Florida which preceded the South Carolina beans into the Northern markets by about two weeks. The work of examining persons for hookworm and treating those found to be afflicted with the disease, free of charge,is now going on in Kingstree and Williamsburg county under the direction of the State Board of Health.

Lake City, May 18:?At the call meeting of the stockholders of the Farmers and Merchants bank of this place Tuesday, May 12, over 830 of the thousand shares issued were present to be used for the purpose of voting on the following steps, and so large a number of the owners themselves were here that the meeting had to be held in tne Pythian Hall. The stockholders were in fayor of increasing the capital stock from one hundred thousand to 200,000 dollars, to be effective January 1, 1915, and they also decided to establish another branch of the main institution at Pamplico, this county. The hank already has two branch offices, one at Cowards and the other at Johnsonville, and the present flourishing conditions of both have tended, in a large measure, for the unanimous approval of establishing a third branch business. The branch at Pamplico will be open and ready for business on the first of July; the building to be used for this purpose is now under rapid contruction and will be completed within the next 30 days, LBN.

This is a mistaken idea, because Scott's Emulsion f; rengthens the body before making fiesl .s blood-forming properties aid nature to throw off sickness by building health from its very source, and flesh is formed only by its continued use.
