A remedy that can be used with perfect safety for the tiniest babe ind that is equally effective for the strongest constitution is found in the i combination of simple laxative herbs I known as Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pep- I sin and sold in drug stores every- 1 where for fifty cents a bottle.

"She had no energy and felt bad- 11 y all the time. She was not able, '? lardly, to do anything around the M louse, and was under a doctor for a pc solid year but got no better. She has js low taken two(2) bottles of Tanlac, R. ind it has proven in her case the jest medicine in the world. Her th strength has increased a great deal, th md her appetite is better than it has ar seen in.years. Nothing she eats r( iauses her indigestion now. She sure is pleased with the results. It 111 s just wonderful the way she has Y niproved. A "My boy, Charlie, suffered one go whole year with a very peculiar and Jistressing trouble, which about a lozen doses of Tanlac broke up. All w last summer he could not work over half a day. He would get so weak he would have to stop for the day. This summer he was not any better. Charlie's appetite would be good till he got to the table, but then he would become sick. Often at night liis breath would almost leave him. af He lost a lot of weight and strength, is [ had taken him to a dozen doctors, jsj but he got no letter. It was said he had nervous indigestion. "I am certainly glad to tell you ai these things for use in your adver- tfc tising, for it may show some poor m sufferers how to regain their health. I a, hope my words may help some who suffer, and you bet I can't say too much for Tanlac." ^ Tanlac, the master medicine, is ki iold by Kingstree Drug Co., Kings- ai tree; Mallard Lumber Co's store, pj Grreelyyille; R P Hinnant, Suttons; price $1 per bottle, straighyt. g( ? nnptnr'c Bompriv f(lF frtlinh* cf II IIVVIVI U numuwj As a cure for coughs and colds Dr st Bell's Pine-Tar-Honey combines H these remedies in just the right pro- aj portion to do the most good for sum- , mer coughs or colds.

This is June 28,the anniversary of ni it battle of Fort Moultrie, fought a( 1776 in Charleston harbor. When n( was a boy the day; was largely eel- y >rated by the military companies, irading, firing cannon and waving o] igs. I will say more about it later m w Dear readers of The Record, my res are growing weak and I am past sc ) years of age. These old eyes have ^ ?heid many scenes,pleasant and un- Qj easant. Think of the ups and J >wns, the narrow escapes from in- ^ ry,often within a hair's breadth of gi >ath, through which I have passed. ^ nee a boy's hand saved me from owning in Charleston harbor. How j it possible that I am still here, anding like an old weather-beaten, ^ orm-tossed pine tree, whose rootai ss trunk may at any moment be veled to the earth by a passing j ind? Sometimes I wonder what sc rt of stuff I am made of. Surely on, brass or steel could not have ai ood the wear and tear that these d limbs of bone and muscle have idergone. How is it that some- ^ ing still holds me here? Sometimes am on the road walking by the tQ d, well remembered places where ^ rtain things happened at various ^ mes. I stop and gaze around. The ^ g that lay across this ditch is gone. . y old friend, Jim Reardon, would S )int to the log and say, "This log ^ where the wildcats cross going to lack river." Poor Jim! He, too,like ai ie wildcat, the log and many other j tings, is gone. Gone! Oh, where ^ e the thousands whose warm hands as so often grasped, now cold and ^ touldering in the grave? Dead? ^ es, dead. Oh, where are the dead? ^ sk of the winds. The answer is the iund thereof?like the dead, we ^ tnnot tell whence it cometh nor hither it goet'n. ... 7 et uur lire s a ciock, And ever}' gasp of breath St Breathes a warning grief w Till time shall strike a death. I am now sojourning in the Mou>n section. [Some days I stroll over ^ rf ? Workman. I have been to see my fed friend. Neighbor Barrow, who quite unwell and very feeble. e( eighbor was a grown man when I ^ as a boy. His son. Mr Jule Bar.ow, . id his estimable wife are nursing 1S le old veteran. Wherever I go I ^ eot some one wh) says, "Give us *c lother letter." It is not so much of ,r task for me to write such a letter ei i they are used to getting. These nd friends have made the request, id I must comply if my arm ex- lli res. I love to talk and think about st ? many dear people. I find so many a >od, kind-hearted mortals that I innot understand why some so often 111 rive against others, like the two ^ ebrews that Moses tried to pacify ^ fter he had murdered an Egyptian ^ le day before and hid him in the ^ ind. Look at the warring nations; ^ ?me of the wisest and most learned 0< :e destroying one another, thouinds, every day. Poor Mexico! see w le terror of terrors, like Banquo's host, will not down. Man's inhumanity to man has often een written about, and at no time as it been so fully demonstrated as ow. May God keep our United tates from these troubles. We shall II die soon enough.and may our rulrs, from President Wilson down, eep our hands from shedding hulan blood. I am sometimes away from Kingsree a week or more and my friends n my return ask me if I had a good me. I have but one answer,"Yes." ! pfttincr And Hrinkinc is- s cnnd me I certainly have it. One day ot long since I visited my friend, ammy Mouzon. He told me about atting a bee tree the day before ad getting three gallons of the finst honey. It was fine; you'd have lought so, too, could you have seen Id Conrad as he sat before a dish of ure strained honey and biscuit! low he did smack his mouth! The ttle ones stood around gazing at le in wonderment. I did not stay >ng,as it was time to go back to the amp at Mr Willie Dennis'. Well, )ldier-like. I carrv mv haversack 'ith me on all these trips, and Samly's good wife and gentle daugh;rs filled it with fine snap beans and mt a pot of beans and bacon selom seen at a camp fire. Well, I must tell more of my good ick. The next day, which was last londay, I started out in the afteroon on another foraging expedition eross Pudding swamp and took diner with my old friend, Dan E Epps. ou may know Dan. He is a brothr of my life-long friend, Pete Epps F Cades. Yes, Pete and I passed tany happy days together, but,now e men totter,Pete. Good old mothAunt Betsy, would say to me imetimes, "Conrad,I think as much F you as any of my sons." Good d soul,may she restin peace. Those 1:1.~ uiua ui iicia wcic jiiwc aypico ui old in pictures of silver" and are rafted deep down in the heart of le writer. God bless the offspring f Uncle Pete and*Aunt Betsy. As think of them the tears freely flow. I also stopped to see Bralie Mcnight. He is a whole-souled fellow id his wife is a fine woman. You don't know me as these peoe do, but if you were with me on me of my trips you would think I as like Sampson's lion and eater id would be fully convinced that I as a Sampson eater if you had seen e with the dish of honey before me le day I was at Sammy's. Now, that is not all about my trip i Workman. I was about to pass r Jim Wingate's place. He was in le yard and waved his hand for me i come in. He gave me some lusous peaches, the first I tasted this ason. I continued on my way and tiled at Bralie's, as I started to tell )u. I sat down on his back Diazza id remembered those juicy peaches, noticed and remarked on some fine rge.ripe tomatoes,and the children jked me if I liked them uncooked, replied that none but an idiot would ty he did not. Then I had another fast all by myself. In about three linutes Mr McKnight's daughter ime in with a good-sized dish of seled.salted. peppered and vinegari tomatoes,while the children gazed eadfastly at the devouring man. It as hard work for me not to swal iw them whole without chewing, hen Mrs McKnight came to the ?scue and asked me if I would like > have some bread. I gladly accepti and out came a piece of hot light read fully ten inches in length and roader than my right hand, which the larger one. I was asked to ave more bread, which I was glad ) do. Tht- second slice was twelve >ches long and that bread wasgocd aough for a king. That night I stopped with my *iend,Robert Reardon.and the next lorning his wife gave us a fine fish ;ew; Robert had taken them out of trap early. Well, I know you will be tired of ly telling you about good eating. I 3 not like people to tell me about le nice things they have had unless jey bring me some, too.
