JONESVILLE Jonesville, Feb. 15.?We had a Rood week for the farmers, they began to plow Friday and the roads were getting in good order so that hauling could be done with some satisfaction. The automobiles were getting around lively and things generally were improving but today we get a set back, as it has been a rainy, sloppy day and all out door work suspended. One of the Southern Railway officials, was here today and he gave out the pleasing news to our people that train No. 28, known as the Carolina Special, foing south would soon begin to stop regularly at this station. This is very satisfactory to our people and will give us good passenger service. I wish to give my views on the good roads subject and the floating of the $200,000 of bonds in this county for that purpose. Most assuredly I am in favor of good roads, but will the proposed bond issue give us good roads all over the county, the cross country roads that leads through the rural parts of the county, nn.l J - " *"* w vi*v a<tiiucx o uuui ; VV tin me act does not say so, neither does it make any provision for that purpose, but specifies public thoroughfares upon which the money is to be used and this looks very much to me like class legislation, that is to say, make one part of the county pay tax to keep up good roads for another part of the county. We really had good roads all last summer and fall and up to the last week in December the roads were in good condition and a team could pull all that could be piled upon a wagon and the automobiles and motorcycles could go without speeding, but its true for about two months the roads have been bad but all or most all the time it s has been raining and when we have rain about every other day, we will have bad roads. I have been in Columbia, Spartanburg and Union during the past rainy season and many of the streets and sidewalks were so muddy and bad it was almost impossible to travel them, and if a city can not have good streets, how can we expect to have them all over the county. Our taxes are just awful high now, we of Jonesville are paying 24 mills and then to take on more and especially at this unusual stress in money matters, would begin to look like it would take about all some people have to pay their tax. Many people in the county have not a.;. * ? - -* ? * I'Mr. Give us a ca you be: Turn Plows Plow Shane iiwi 111 it i-ik cyrup \_.uinpany. ? MORE EARTHQUAKES ' IN CENTRAL ITALY Renewed Shocks in District Devastated by Disaster of Some Weeks Ago. Rome, Feb. 15.?Renewed earth shocks occurred today in parts of central Italy visited by seismic disturbances several weeks ago. One person was killed and six injured in the collapse of a house ai Nazahano. At Rocca Sinibaldi the belfry of the convent of Santa Maria fell upon several houses burying 10 persona. Citta Ducale was wrecked and at Veroliz several houses were rendered uninhabitable. Since the recent disaster the district has been shaken almost daily. Today's disturbances occurred early in the morning, but not until tonight was it learned how serious had been the shock. The population of Ci'tta Ducale is camping in the open air despite a torrential rain. There are about 2,000 persons in the town, which is in the province of Aqula, five miles east of Rieta. _ Five Cents Proves It A Generous Offer.

MOTHER! THE CHILD IS COSTIVE, BILIOUS Don't hesitate! A laxative is necessary if tongue is coated, breath bad or stomach sour. No matter what ails your child, a gentle, thorough laxative should always be the first treatment given. If your little son is out-of-sorts, half-sick, isn't resting, eating and acting naturally?look, Mother! see if tongue is coated. This is a sure sign that its litle stomach, liver and bowels are clogged with waste. When cross, irritable, feverish, stomach sour, breath bad or has stomach-ache diarrhoa, sore throat, full of cold, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all the constipated poison, undigested food and sour bile gently moves out of its little bowels without griping, and you have a well, playful child again. Mothers can rest easy after giving this harmless "fruit laxative," because it never fails to cleanse the little one's liver and bowels and sweeten the stomach and they dearly love its pleasant taste. Full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups printed on each bottle. Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
