REGISTER YOUR MOTOR VEHICLE BY JULY 1-OTHERWISE IT WILL BE UNLAWFUL TO DRIVE IT AFTER THAT DATE. In accordance with the act.approved February 20, 1917, creatine a State Highway Department, every ??vokiVIo onH puprv uwun U1 a liJUVVI fVM.v.v dealer in motor vehicles is required to register with the State Highway Engineer on or before the first of July 1917. The law provides that each owner of a motor vehicle and each dealer in motor vehicles shall make application to the State Highway Engineer for registration and license. The State Highway Engineer will furnish these application blanks on request. The law further provides that on and after the first of July that any person who drives a motor vehicle on, or along, or across any public road, or street, or highway in the State of South Carolina, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine of not more than $25.00, or imprisonment for not more than 15 days for each and every offense. The State Higway Engineer is anxious to register these motor vehicles as fast as possible, and to cause as little inconvenience to the the public as possible, however, there are about 30,000 cars in this State to be registered, and to register this number of cars will take at least two months of time. As there are now only about two and one half months between now and the first of July, and as no one will be allowed to drive a motor vehicle on the public highways after the first of July unless duly licensed and registered, the State highway engineer desires to urge every owner of a motor vehicle and every dealer iD motor vehicles to make application for registration at once in order that his office may be able to complete the registration of motor vehicles by the first of July. The registration fees for owners of motor vehicles will be 12$c per horse power, based on an A L A M rating. The registration fees for dealers in motor vehicles will be $15.00 for each make of motor vehicle sold. It will not cost any more to register a car now than it will to register the same car during the last part of June. Every owner of a motor vehicle is urgently requested to write to the State highway engineer at once requesting application blanks. The registration and license fees paid to the State highway engineer are in lieu of all other State, municipal and county licenses for the entire year of 1917. J Roy Pennell.

LONG FIGHT FOR HEALTH REWARDEDBY RECOVERY GRATEFUL LETTER FROM LEEDS, ? ? * A *T rr< r? * * O /\r f TXTITCIT A * I ALA.YYUMArV I LLL3 Ur VJ.1 UOUaLLY INTERESTING CASE. Mrs T J Mackey, wife of T J Mackey,merchant of Leeds,Ala, is s happy woman today and is brimful of the joy of living again after a long siege of illness. "For several years," she writes, "I was a sufferer and in spite of the efforts of my doctor it seemed that nothing was going to help me. "I was confined to my bed many months. My hands had turned black and scaly. I was very nervous and my head ached all the time. Up to this time they had not known what mv disease was, hut at last decided that it was pellagra. "Then I started taking SuiferroSol.and it was apparent at once that it was going to help me get well I have taken three !><>ttles ami can say that I am well ami free from every symptom of the disease. My folks are amazed to see me out in the fields again and looking after my housework. It seems very wonderful to me, and I am sure I can ascribe my recovery to Sulferro-Sol and nothing else. "This is the greatest remedy I ever heard of, and it will heal when everything else fails," Sulferro-Sol is sold and recommended by all druggists at Kingstree, S C, and vicinity. m ^ To Sustain Cotton Prices. No oneexpectsthe American farmer to produce foods for charitable motives. It is no duty of the farmers to raise corn and potatoes at greater sacrifice than other men make for their country's sake. If the supply of food shall continue short,the people of the world will go naked before they will go hungry. 1 They can and they will pet along with their old clothes many a long day and month. If corn shall sell at S3 a bushel and other foods in proportion, little money will be left to buy cloth. If the people of Great Britain, France and the United States shall be compelled to spend their money for food, with what will they buy clothes? In other words, the only way to sustain the price of cotton is to raise enough food to enable the consumers to fill their stomachs and have money left with whicti to buy clothes, too. For two years the German and Austro-Hungarian empires have managed to subsist without cotton, and they are not starving for cotton now. The peoples of other countries can live without cotton?and they will live without it if they can't otherwise keep soul and body together with bread and meat. That is the cotton problem for the farmer to ponder who does not believe what is being said about the food shortage. If the country should be threatened with famine the cotton farmer would discover that the seed of his cotton would fetch more than the lint. Cotton seed is a food. You can't eat the fabric. ?

The name "German," whether applied to restaurants, pot roasts, dogs or merely fried potatoes.is no longer popular in Atlanta and has been erased from signboards and menus alike. Dozens of restaurants, large and small, have had all their menu cards reprinted, usually with a small American flag at the top,and all reference to German delicacies carefully removed. It is likely that the name winerwurst (Vienna sausage) will have to go, too, as the United States is virtually at war with Austria as well as Germany. MRS.
