the State than the souvenir edition
of the Greenville Times, issued last
week in that Queen City" beside the
Father of Waters by the Times Pub.
fishing Company. The edition is me-
chanically excellent, and the matter
was so carefully prepared and so skill
fully presented that it cannot fail to
attract the attention and interest Of
all who see it, Every point that can
rebound to the interest of the city or
county is well brought out and made
much of, There are many of these
points deserving of all possible pub
licity, and If we had the space we
would reproduce them in these col.
umns. One thing we feel constrained
to tell our readers (hoping that
among them are some would-be invest
ors) Upon the artistic cover is
symbolic figure of the Queen City, and
every line of the drawing is rich with
meaning. For instance, the hem Of

ranged as to make in its graceful fall
a perfect outline map of the city,

BALL PLAYERS LUCKY ERROR.

Tried to Bet on Banaster, but His Cash
Fell upon Banished.
I've seen it happen that way over
and over again. A few years ago L
had an interest in big room in West
port, outside of Baltimore. This was
when Banaster was 2-year-o1d," said
a Chicago bookmaker to an Inter
Ocean man. zone day Banaster was
in a race at Louisville in which a
much-less-regarded 2-year-old named
BanlShed was also entered.
A young fellow that l knew pretty
well, because he was often intrusted
with big money by Baltimore baseball
players when the players themselves
couldn't get to the rooms, walked up
to my desk. planted $500 in century
papers and said 'Banished,' tipping me
the word that the money was going
down for a famous Baltimore play er
who's still big in the game of ball and
is known as Scrappy McGr-but never
mind his name.
Nov Banaster in that race was a
6-to-5 chance and Banished was at 10
to l, and l knew that my chum, the
baseball man, Eabitually took the short
end OF it for his. I don't want to let
him have the worst of it through a
mistake of commissioner, and so I
said to the young fellow:
"Banaster you mean"
No, I DON'T he replied, straight
off the reel, referring to slip of paper
that he took from his waistcoat pocket.
I mean Banished'
''Well, it wasn't my last sad rites,

the young fellow. q
1.-TWO minutes later I was called to
the telephone, and there, at the other
end of the wire, was my pal, the base
ball man, in panic.
Say he shouted at me, has that
lad of mine turned up yet, and, If so,
which of 'em did he put the $500 on
Banaster or Banished? l think made
hash of it in writing the slip for him.
'Banished, three thousand to three

That St. Jacobs Oil always affords instant
relief from pains, after all other remedies
have signally failed3 Simply because it is
peculiar to itself, wholly unlike another rem
edy. 1t possesses great penetrating power,
reaching the very seat of the disease. 1t
acts like magic. 1t conquers pain quickly
and surely. 1t is an outward application,
and is used by millions of people.
