its churches and its school,
by Prof H H Brown,principal of the
Cades graded school. There are also
a number of cuts of some of the
residences and business houses of the
town. These plates were made from
photographs taken by Mr Brown,
and show at a glance the phenomenal
progress of the town within very
M/va-nf vpars.
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. It is claimed
that 20,000 people in the county
i are afflicted with this disease.
Now is the time to have it treated.
Dr L A Riser has charge of the
work. Five examining stations have
been established and will be con
tinued until June 30. Examinations
are made every Tuesday at Hemingway,
Wednesday at Greelyville,
Thursday at Gourdin, Friday at
Nesmith and Saturday at Kingstree.
Death of Mr. E. E. Lewis.
Mr Eddie E Lewis, a nephew of

this morning.
Mr Lewis came here about eight
weeks ago with his wife and two
1 M 1 ? T?1 n fa irieif
cnuaren irom reiisac-um, rm,ui ?ioiv
I his relatives. He was not well when
he arrived, and soon afterward his
illness developed into a severe (4se
of pneumonia. Under good medical
treatment and careful nursing by his
patient wife his condition improved
and about two weeks since he was
able to go about. A relapse set in
and his affliction became complicated
and stubborn, failing to respond to
medical treatment, and after a period
of ten days' suffering, he passed
away this morning.
The remains will be taken to Flor
ence this afternoon and interred tomorrow.
FARMERS & MERCHANTS BANK
Raises Capital to 1200,000?Another
Branch Established.
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.

We are glad to note that Master
Wayne Gamble is improving fast,
after being on the sick list for about
four weeks.

Monday to the bedside of his daughter,Miss
Eunice, at Columbia. After
arriving there, by the advice of the
attending physician, he returned
home Tuesday night, bringing Miss
Eunice with him on a cot. She is
now being attended by that capable
physician, Dr I N Boyd, and we
hope for her a speedy recovery.
Today is the 20th of May, the day

A MISTAKEN IDEA
There are some peopie who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility, and who know that the pure,
unadulterated nourishment in Scott's
Emulsion is eminently better, but refrain
from taking it because they fear it may
lead to excessive fat or obesity.
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.
Avoid alcoholic substitutes for SCOTT'S.
