THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS


is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
TO the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
al the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions Of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. 1t is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name Of

General Denver remarked that there

near its destination that you would not

The late Bishop william Ingraham
Kip Of San Francisco was very proud
of his aristocratic family connection.
He came from an old Dutch family, his
ancestors having crossed the ocean from
Hull before this country had made much
history. Having considerable private
means and not being dependent upon
his diocesan salary, the bishop made
frequent trips to Europe. and upon his
return from abroad he always commit
ted the indiscretion, not uncommon
with European travellers, Of talking a
great deal about the noble persons he
had met. IL was, my friend Lord

divide up and write alternately and
not all write the same week. w

send in the news every two weeks.
A good many Of our people went
over to Due West on the nth inst,
to hear Hon. w. j. Bryan. Among
the number was old father, Louis
Martin, who is in his 18th year.
They were well pleased with the
appearance Of the man and his
speech. We learned however, that
there were some who were not so
well pleased, as they did not get to
hear him for the lack of so cents,
or the disposition to give it--one or
the other.

family of Owensville, were the

Dina Division:
1T has been called to the alton
ton of the Young Mems Business
League, that there is in this State
some Confederate Veterans who
would like to attend the annual
reunion of the South Carolina di-
vision to be held in Charleston,
commencing April the 9th. 1898,
and only could do 80 if during
their stay in the city would be pro-
Vlded with lodgings and meals.
The Young Mems Business League,
representing citizens of Charles
ton, extend to all such n most cor
dial welcome. But it will be
necessary, in order that adequate
accommodations should be provi-
ded, that they should know, at
least approximately, how many
such would be likely to come.
They can provide places to sleep,
beds and meals, the Veterans bring
ing their blankets as in the old
times, whose recollections they
are renewing.
TO enable the Young Mems Bust
ness League to estimate the accom-
modatlons required we would be
obliged, if you could advise r. H..
Simons, chairman committee on
entertainment, how many you
think from your neighborhood,
SO cirGumstancod, and needing
such accommodations to enable
thom to attend, will he apt to
como.
Please reply promptly in order
that the Young Mems Business

range, and how they must arrange
for the comfort of such veterans,
whom the people Of Charleston
would like to do honor to.

Now that the baseball season is draw
ing near, the question is being asked if
it would not be much better to 90 down
to the ball groun | and sit in the shade
and look at a good game of ball than to
try and kill time on the square during
the hot summer afternoons. Laurens
has some good material for a ball team
CHS season, and if the citizens Of the
town will show the boys that they APP
preciate their efforts we will have some
good games during the summer. So,
when the list comes round do your best,
and show how much public spirit you
have. a good, winning baseball team
advertises a town much mora than some
people think. Let US have a good team.
Everybody interested in baseball is
requested to meet at the court house

a GREATlNDUSTRIAL CONFLICT.
The coming century is to be re-
markablc for an intense industrial
conflict between the most advanced
nations. 1t has already begun be-
tween Germany and England, and
the obvious gains of the former
are ascribed chiefly to her system
of industrial education. The gov
eminent has established, and it
maintains trade schools in every
section for the special training of
future workmen. Reports ,on the
work of these schools and reports
from British consuls as to the en-
terprisc of German manufacturing
agents seeking new markets have
raised almost Il passion for indus
trial training in England. It is
urged that in the matter Of ma
chln"ry, no nation can have any
permanent advantage; and that
while English workmen are SUI
pcrlor to the German for the mo-
ment, it is because they have been
better paid, n condition that can
not continue when the rivalry for
chcapncss of production becomes
sharper. Therefore, the tide of
battle will turnin favor of the ma
ton whose workmen have had tho
best special Misunderstanding
ton Post.
