V" CEDAR SMAMP CHRONICLES. Noted Orator-Little Damage from Hail .-Personal Mention. Cedar Swamp,June 13:?This section so far has not been visited byhail storms from which any damage to speak of has resulted. Yet on one r two occasions the hail pebbles pelted the tender tobacco and cotton leaves sufficiently hard to pierce small holes. Hailstones appear to be louore nf iVp and snow and aibciuai^ IMJVCW w. are supposed to form in the air as the stone is retained in a gyratory or whirling upward current, so they may occur at any time or any place during a thunder storm. Notwithstanding the heavy clouds, loud thunder and sharp lightning Sunday afternoon, when Will D Upshaw of Atlanta, Ga, a speaker of national fame, arrived at Cedar Grove church, accompanied by Rev A E Riemer and Mr J M Brown of Kingstree, a goodly crowd was there waiting to hear the man, compared as an orator with William Jennings Bryan and other noted speakers, expatiate on the previously announced theme, "A Stainless Flag for America."

U.Uiiu Kills Thmiftandit of Alii OU AAlgt, lUMawj MMW - . ? mala Soon After Arrival There. Washington, June 12^There is great anxiety among horse shippers over the heavy mortality in France of horses sent from this country recently. The cause of the deaths is a mystery,and experts have suggested everything from a German plot to some undiscovered malady. The horses were shipped under the most approved conditions, received every care at sea and landed in France in as good condition as could be expected. ?et they soon become afflicted with a malady that proves from 60 to 70 per cent fatal. Death comes so rapidly that treatment is impossible. Horse dealers in the southern regions of France, where the mortality has been greatest,sag geit poisoning before the animals leave the United States. In fifteen months thousands of the horses have died. Some veterinarians suggest an infection of grippe. Dr A D Melvin.of the Department of Agriculture,thinks the horses have died from "forage poisoning," the popular name for spinal meningetis caused by mouldy feed, and that it was contracted after they landed. It is probable that the Government will soon have all shipments of horses made under Federal supervision as a precaution.

Pentlty Attached After July 1 Upon Owners of Automobiles. The number of applications for State automobile licenses received daily at the State highway department has decreased materially and without apparent reason within the past week or ten days. Prior to that time the entire office force was workins: until late at night in an effort to keep up with the daily receipts, but at the Dresent time only about 350 to 500 applications are received daily. The State highway engineer wishes to call the attention of all automobile and motorcycle owners throughout the State who have not yet made application for licenses to the fact that the time to secure these licenses is very limited,and he wishes to urge all of them to get their applications in at the earliest possible date to avoid delays and disappointments as well as embarrassing situations with the county officials after July 1. Up to the present time only about 17,500 owners' licenses have been issued out of an estimated total in the State of 35,000, and less than three weeks remain before the $25 penalty becomes effective. It is to be noted that about onehalf the cars owned in Williamsburg county are yet without the State li Never Neglect a Cold, A chill after bathing, cooling off suddenly after exercise and drafts, may give the cold-germs a foothold that may lead to something worse.

Mrs. Chaa. Gaston, ^ of this place, writes: MI am a user . of Thedford'a Black-Draught; in fact, I It was one of our family medicines. Also in my mother's home, when I was a child. When any of us children complained of headache, usually caused by constipation, she gave us / a dote of Black-Draught, which would rectify th* trouble. Often In the Spring, we would bare malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty regular until tha liver acted well, and we would soon be up and a round t again. We would not be without It, for It certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just a dose of BlackDraught when not bo well saves a lot of days In bed." Thedford's Black-Draught has been In use for many years in the treat- I ment of stomach, liver and bowel r troubles, and the popularity which it now enjoys Is proof of its merit If your liver is not doing its duty, you will suffer from such disagreeable symptoms as headache, biliousness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something is done, serious trouble may result . Thedford's Black-Draught has been 1 found a valuable remedy for these troubles. It is purely vegetable, and acts In a prompt and natural way, Tegulating the liver to its proper functions and cleansing the bowels of impurities. Try it. Insist on Thedford's, the original and genuine.
