jA Laxative for ]
Good
Or faldweli's Syrup Pepsin a Safe
ana Efficient Family Remedy
Every member of the family is
more or less subject to constipation,
and every home should always be
supplied with a dependable remedy
! to promutly relieve this condition.
Whenever the bowels become clogged
and the natural process of elimination
thereby disturbed, the entire
system is affected, and readily subject
to attack by disease. Constipation
is a condition that should never
be neglected.
Mrs E R Gilbert, of Millbro, Va,
says that Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
is a splendid laxative for children
because they like its pleasant taste,
and it acts so easily and naturally,
without griping or strain, and she
finds it equally effective for the rest
of the family.
Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that contains no opiate
or narcotic drug. It is mild and gentle
in its action, and does not cause
pain or discomfort. Druggists every- j
where sell this excellent remedy for j
fifty cents a bottle.
BEV. JOHN B. WILSON DEAD.
| Late Pastor of Klnastree ftfetbo
4 vim VHart'u ravovB no?/
Sumter, January 17:?General regret
was felt today by his many
friends at the death of Rev John Bee
Wilson, for forty-six years a preacher
of the South Carolina conference
of the Methodist church. Death
came this morning at about 11
o'clock, as Mr Wilson was sitting in:
his chair by the fireside. He had
been indisposed for several days,but
had not been ill, his indisposition being
regarded by his family as due to
the bad weather. Yesterday he went j
uuwii iuvvii einu 1.1110 iiiuiuiug nt
dressed and had expected to go
down street when death came before
he left his home.
The deceased was a native of Marlboro
county and was 70 years of
age,his birthday anniversary having
been observed January 14. He
served in the South Carolina Reserves
during part of the civil war,
being too young for active service at
the front. Ever since he has been
living in Sumter he has been chap-j
lain of Dick Anderson camp, United j
Confederate Veterans. In 1871 he|
entered the South Carolina confer- j
ence of the Methodist church and j
was actively engaged in preaching
till four years ago, when he was su
perannuated. Last year, however,he
was appointed to fill out the unexpired
term of Rev D A Phillips as
pastor at Kingstree.Mr Phillips haying
been made presiding elder to
succeed the late Rev H B Browne.
He discharged these duties in a most
satisfactory manner until the appointment
of Rev G T Harmon to
that charge at the recent session of
conference. With his family he came
to Sumter nine years ago as pastor
of the Broad Street Methodist church
which he served faithfully and well
for four years. Sumter has continued
to be his home since he first
came here, For sixteen years he
served as a presiding elder with the
same ability and faithfulness as he
I rh'H his rharces as Dastor.
He married Miss Galloway, of
Darlington county, and yesterday he
and his wife "celebrated the fortyseventh
wedding anniversary. Besides
his widow, he is survived by
two sons, C M and G H Wilson;
three daughters. Miss Agatha, Sumter;
Mrs S L Davis, Manning; Mrs M
H Wells, Florence, and one brother,
W J Wilson, Lockhart, Fla.

idow to Get Eggs from Hens.
If you want hens to lay in winter
you must have green food for them, |
and they must be kept busy. The
idle hen that sits on the sunny side
of the rose bush in the back yard all
day long and eats all you wilt feed
her will never make any woman
rich. But cover the hen house or
shed floor with chaff and get her to
scratching for her living, and she
will fill the egg basket.
For the morning feed scatter corn,
cane seed, millet or any kind of
grain, in a deep, dry litter and let
them dig for it. At night, feed a
mash of table scraps, meal, whea".
Dran or anyimng you may nave on
hand. At night, give a warm feed. I
find parched corn ahead of most
anything. This keeps the hens warm
through the long, cold hours when
they can not warm thernselves by
exercise. Of course in our mild
climate we don't need to feed them
suppers every night, only on coldest
nights.
If you have buttermilk for hens
and will beat up all the bones le:?t
from meat you will not have to biy
beef scrap. I always sow a few
patches of rye, crimson clover, barley
or wheat near the hen houses no
they can get their own green feed.
When we feed as above we never
fail to get a fair amount of eggs,
but if we just do "any old way" we
don't get many and don't deserve
them.?Afrs Howell in Progressive
Farmer.
