Neptune's Daughter
Produced by Herbert Brennon.
Book by Capt. Leslie Peacocke.
Direct from the Globe Theatre, New York.
Special Admission 10c and 25c
A Hint to the Wise?Come Early
In presenting ANNETTE KELLERMANN, "the
perfect woman," in the spectacular pictorial pro
(taction, "NEPTUNE'S DAUGHTER," The Universal
Moving Pictures has reason to believe that
it has uttered the last word in photo-play art. The
wondrous beauty of the story, written by Captain
Leslie T. .Peacocke, the enchanting scenes afforded
by the Bermuda Islands with their coral reefs, submarine
grottos, semi-tropic verdure and the vast
expanse of the wide Atlantic; the company of over
200 actors, headed by Miss Kellermann, who, aside
from her marvelous acquatic feats, which she has
many opportunities to display in this drama, proves
that she is also a splendid actor, a graceful dancer,
an expert swordswoman, and mistress of a hundred
arts which contribute to the success of the production;
the masterly staging of the drama by Herbert
Brenon?all these are factors which help to
make "Neptune's Daughter" a production to be
watched with delight and never to be forgotten.
"Neptune's Daughter" was produced at a cost of
$50,000 and was three months in preparation. Its
success in New York has been sensational. Broadway's
most fashionable playhouse, the Globe
Theatre, where it enjoyed a phenomenal run, was
filled at every performance with entranced audiences
whose interest and applause endorsed the general
opinion that this is the greatest photo-play
ever produced.
Never before have the newspaper of New York
devoted so much attention to or bestowed as much
praise on a film production.
Without exception the metropolitan critics pro;
nounced "Neptune's Daughter" the most wonderful
photo-drama ever conceived and executed.
THEDA BARA TODAY (THURSDAY)
? tt-. l
Letter From "Cousin Bill"
Columbia, S. C., Sept. 28, 1010.
Dear Sammy:
As you have not heard from me in quite a while I thought I
would drop you a line or two and let you know how I am getting
; along. I landed in Columbia a few days ago and I think I Will
stay here?I like this place pretty well. They are going to have a
Jubilee in October and all you hear is Jubilee and State Fair.
Last week they told me there were about 180,000 visitors here
and it was the biggest frolic they have ever had, that is why
everybody is using the slogan, "Frolic Time in Carolina." They
are going to have a queen and all that sort of stuff, hie str^pt
balls and when it comes to the shows on the streets they tell me
that they are pippins. It wont cost a cent. All you have to do is
stand up and gaze.
One fellow told me that the parade last year was over a mile
long and he said that it would be twice that long this year. They
are looking for 200,000 visitors this year and I certainly am going
to be here for the frolic. Be sure and write me at once if you are
coming, so that I can get a place for you to leave your grip. You
won't need a place to sleep. We will be too busy frolicking.
I have been invited to the queen's ball and I sure am going. They
tell me that it is going to be the finest ball ever held in the State.
I saw the photographs of some of the floats that were in the parade
last year and they certainly were swell looking ones and this
year they will be better. In a lot of the store windows they are
commencing to put in Harvest Jubilee colors. I really believe this
burg has waked up for they are certainly working hard to get in
all the fun they can for one week.
I don't see how I am going to see all the shows at once, because
they are a block opart, but they will be running all the time and I
will hang around each one of them to see what is going to happen.
I like to look at parades and they tell me that they are going
to have five during the week. The farmers' parade, I guess, will
be one of the biggest agricultural parades ever held. The whole
agricultural department of Clemson College, floats from a couple
of packing houses, creameries, all the fine live stock, pig clubs, etc.,
will be in the parade, besides that there are a whole lot of farmers
who are going to be in the parade with floats, showing what they
have raised on their farms. These fellows are competing for prizes.
Another thing I have heard a lot about that I want to see is this
open air dancing. It must be flne just to get out in the street and
be able to dance a whole block. I know you can count on me being
in it. I guess it makes a fine sight to see a whole street all lighted
up and decorated and the street smooth and nice, with a couple of
brass bands playing?why a crippled man couldn't keep from dancing,
much less me. But there will be nothing doing when it comes
to skating, although I expect to be on hand to see a lot of fellows
hit the asphalt in the crowd.
I saw pictures of the candidates for queen. Gee, I didn't know
there were so many pretty girls in South Carolina. It will be hard
to pick the winner. I am glad I got an invitation to the queen's
ball because they are making big preparations for the entertainment.
Give my best regards to Jim and Aunt Lou. I hope both of them
will be able to be here for the Fair. I know the dancing would do
Jim's rheumntism a wnrld ~ 1

-t LOCKHART JUNCTION
iJockhart Junction, Oct. 3.?We
are having a cool spell of weather
on us at this time. Fire and heavy
clothing are acceptable. There hasn't
been any frost yet that I know of,
but it seems as if it is not far away.
We see nothing to prevent the
farmer from gathering his short crop.
To be sure, it is a very short one,
as it will prove in the wind up, at the
end of gathering time. Cotton has
gone up in price. I hear today it is
.16Vi cents and I look for the next
report to still bring better prices.
This writer is in hopes that cotton
will reach its highest before it leaves
the farmer's hand and goes to the
speculator, for there is many a poor
farmer that won't make over two
bales to the mule or plow and he is
the man that should be benefited.
It was in the Adamsburg section
last week and attended preaching at
Wesley's Chapel. I heard a fine sermon
by Rev. Mr. Brown of Monarch.
Rev. Mr. Copeland was carrying on
a protracted meeting at that place.
I stopped at the hospitable home of
Mrs. Gist Farr and sons, where I
took dinner and enjoyed being in their
home.
Mr. Marvin Farr has the finest
Irish potato patch that I have seen
this year, of the Lookout variety, he
calls them. The vines are very large
and full of blooms. Looks like spring
or in June or July when everything
is looking green and flourishing. He
will make a good yield, from the looks
of them.
There has been a great deal of
molasses made up in this section, as
the cane crop is best crop that has
been made. It was fine wherever it
was planted.
Nettie Brandon, an old colored woman,
died last Thursday night, the
28th 111st. She died with dropsy. She
was 70 years old. Her husband, Albert
Brandon, who is living, is 86
years old. "Aunt Nettie," as every
one called her, belonged to Mr. Ed
Meng in slavery time. She lived with
Mr. Meng, in Pinkney township, near
Brown's Creek. She told me he
taught her how to drop corn, and he
was a good master to her. This good
old darkey and her husband has been
living on this writer's place three
years. She has been our cook. She
had many good white friends that
thought a great deal of her. She
was one that had good manners and
was obedient to her white friends, for
she was reared right. There are not
many of these kind now. They are ;
nearly all dead, and it is a pity that ,
the younger ones couldn't follow the
example of the older ones. This old
darkey knew her maker and was
ready when he called her. She leaves
_ her husband and. many children to
mourn their loss.

TANLAC HAS BEEN WORTH
$500 TO HIM, HE SAYS
Richardson Declares "Two
Years Have Passed Since
Tanlac Restored My
Health.
ONCE LIVED ON MILK
Removed by Tanlac, He Says, "I've
Had No Return of Any of My
Old Troubles."
A few days ago, Frank Richardson,
a well known employe of the Byrd
Printing Company .residing at 52
West Lake St., Atlanta, came into
Jacob's Pharmacy and in relating his
experiences with Tanlac said:
"About eighteen months ago, while
I lived in Knoxville, Tenn., I made the
statement that I wouldn't take $500
for the good Tanlac did me. Well, I
just want to tell you I still feel the
same way about it. I suffered with
the most terrible case of stomach
trouble, which had followed me for
seven long years and pulled me down
almost to the point of despair. Tanlac
gave me relief when everything
else had failed and I can never forget
it.
"My diet was restricted to milk and
occasionally a soft boiled egg, and I
wouldn't dare touch meats of any
kind. I was habitually constipated
and extremely nervous. No matter
what I would eat, I would always
have an awful pain in my stomach,
and this, with my stomach, kept me
awake for hours every night. My
condition alarmed my wife and I was
almost at the turn of the road where
I hadn't strength to follow my vocation.
"I read about Tanlac helping so
many people who were afflicted as I
was, and I determined to try it. I
started to the drug store one evening
for my first bottle, and I was so weak
from loss of strength and energy that
I fainted. I managed to get back
home after so long and started on my
Tanlac, and the first few doses made
me feel better. I continued improving,
and, after taking the fourth bottle,
there was a most wonderful
change in my condition. I found that
I could eat just anything I wanted,
and, for the first time in years, I
could eat boiled ham and potatoes and
felt no ill after-effects. The pains
all left my stomach, my nervousness
disappeared and I could sleep like a
child. My troubles all went' away
with those few bottles of Tanlac and
left me stronger and more energetic
than I had been in years. Yes, sir,
eighteen months have passed since
Tanlac so wonderfully restored my
health, and it gives me pleasure to
that I have no return of any
IKvSjj^ld troubles to this good day,
kept my average weight
Tanlac made life a real
preasure to me, and I go about my
work with a feeling that reminds me
of the days of my young manhood."

I,OOK AT A* CHILD'S
TONGUE WHEN CROSS
FEVERISH AND SICK
Take No Chances! Move Poisons
From Liver and Bowels at
Once.
Mothers can rest easy after giving
"California Syrup of Figs," because in
a few hours all the clogged-up waste,
sour bile and fermenting food gently
'moves out of the bowels, and you
have a well, playful child again.
Children simply will not take the
time from play to empty their bowels,
and they become tightly packed,
liver gets sluggish and stomach disordered.
When cross, feverish, restless, see
if tongue is coated, then give this delicious
"fruit laxative." Children love
it,1 and it can not cause injury. No
difference what ails your little one?
if full of cold, or a sore throat, diarrhoea,
stomach-ache, bad breath, remember,
a gentle "inside cleansing"
should always be the first treatment
given. Full directions for babies,
children of all ages and grown-ups
are printed on each bottle.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle
of "California Syrup of Figs," then
look carefully and see that it is made
by the "California Fig Syrup Company."
We make no smaller size.
Hand back with contempt any other
fig syrup.
