STATE ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE Moves Its Headquarters to Columbia?Its Officers and Policy. The Anti-Saloon League of South Carolina has moved its headquarters from Spartanburg to Columbia and is now established in Room 10 of the Carolina National Bank building. The officers are: it President, Hon R 0 Purdy, Sumter; vice presidents, Rev J S Moffett, Due West; Rev K G Findlay, Colum - * - rr-i.?ill-. A M n.. Oia; J J LAWlOD, narisvwic, n. iu Pre, Spartanburg. Headquarters Committee?Rev C EBurts.F H Hyatt, F F Whilden, Rev K G Findlay, L S Trotti, Dr W R Barron, W B DeLoach, C P Wray. Trustees?C E Graham, Rev Z T Cody, Greenville; R F Bryant, Or-] angeburg; Bright Williamson, Darlington; J L Mims, Edgefield; C B Bobo, Laurens; Rev P B Wells, Rock Hill; George H Bates, Barnwell; J K Breedin, Columbia; J G Anderson, \ Rock Hill; W H Keith, Timmonsville. It will be the policy of the league to conserve the prohibition seLtiment throughout the State ana to aia in / building up sentiment for law enforcement. S The executive officer of the league is Mr J K Breedin, the superintendent, and all correspondence will be handled by him from his office in Columbia. Mr Breedin will be available for work in connection with the league in all parts of the State and will be glad to hold meetings where sentiment for law enforcement needs to be improved, and in organizing communities for the enforcement of law. There is no political motive prompting the Anti-Saloon league in its activities, the league regarding prohibition as a settled policy of social and economic betterment of the State rather than as a matter of politics. The league myites the co-operation of all patriotic citizens in its efforts to promote the cause, of temperance and solicits the active and liberal support of all citizens in all phases, of its work. Dangers of Draff. Drafts feel best when we are hot and perspiring, just when they are most dangerous and the re&ult is neuralgia, stiff neck, sore muscles or sometimes an attack of rheumatism. In such cases apply Sloan's Liniment. It stimulates circulation to the sore and painful part. The bl(?od flows freely and in a short time the stiffness and pain leaves. Those suffering from neuralgia or neuaalgic headache will find one or two applications of Sloan's Liniment will give grateful relief. The agoniz\ ing pain gives way to a tingling sensation of comfort and warmth and quiet rest and sleep is possible. Good for neuritis too. Price 25c, at your druggist. ^ ? The Names ot the Months. The names of the months are Latin in their origin. The particular derivation of each name is as follows: January, in honor of Janus, who presided over the beginning of everything; February, from the word "febru," to purify, because the purification of women took place in that month; March, from the name of the god of war, Mars; April, from the "aperio," to open, j because that is the month when the buds shoot forth; May, from the name of the goddess Maia, mother of Mercury, to whom sacrifices were offered the first day of this month; June, from the name of the Queen of the gods, Juno; July, named by Marc Antony in honor of Julius \ Caesar, who was born in this month; August. named by Augustus Caesar in honor of himself, because in this month he celebrated three distinct triumphs, reduced Egypt to subjection, and put an end to civil war (in Gaul and the more remote parts of the Roman Empire the month was known by its ancient name of Eaust or Aust, the word for harvest;) September, October, November, December, the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth months (names from the Roman numerals,) so-called because previous to the addition of January and February by Numa in 713 B C the calendar year began a with March.?-A J Times. The Quinine That Does Not Affect The Head Because of its tonic and laxative effect, LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE is better than ordinary Sjinine and does not cause nervousness nor nzing in head. Remember the full name and look for the signature of E. W. GROVE. 25c. BLOOHINGVALE GRADED SCHOOL. | 7iT7r:7r7rrr7r7r7r:7r:rr;nr?f;7t Bloomingvale, March 28: ?
