Predestination Proved.

When Secretary Wilson's young and
enthusiastic missionaries are about to
so out TO preach the doctrine of the
new agriculture" says the New York
Tribune, the Secretary calls them into
his office and delivers a little homily
on the wisdom of utilizing natural con-
dtions as illustrations, and concludes
with the story of the old Presbyterian
preacher who converted thousands Of
darkies to the doctrine of predestinati0n
in a single day. He, according to the
Secretary, told the crowd Of negroes VINO
had gathered to hear him that all things
were predestinatcd from the beginning
of time, and in proof thereof said that
on the next day all the chickens in the
neighborhood would go 10 roost at mid
day. There was much fnurniurng at tho
statement and some one asked how long
the preacher had known that. 81 have
known it many years" said the mis-
sionary Dat amt caynt be-" said an old
negro. Oar amt no chickens roun' here
OATS ober tree yeahs old " Hone
caynt know dat so long" But the next
day all the chickens went to roost at l.
O'Clock, and all the darkies became con-
verted Immediately. The old preacher
had been consulting his almanac. and had
found that on the next day there would
be a total eclipse Of the sun at noon.

CURES CATARRH.
''HyOmei the Most Wonderful Cure for
Catarrh Ever Discovered" Says
Laurens Drug Go.

Do not try to IRE catarrh by taking
drugs into the stomach; it cannot be
cured In that n The only way in
which this too common disease can be
cured Is through a direct application
that will kill the bacIlli' of catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Hyomei is the only known method OF
treatment that accomplishes this. 1t is
the simplest, most pleasant and the
only absolute cure for catarrh that has
been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimo-
malls have been received from the most
prominent men and mn in the coun
try who have been cured by this re-
markable remedy. Ministers, bankers,
lawyers, W eminent physicians have
given strong testimonials as to the re-
markable powers of Hyomei to cure Ca
tarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but $1.O0, consisting of an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last
several weeks. This will effect o cure
in ordinary cases, but for chronic and
deep-seated cases OF catarrh, longer
use may be necessary, and then extra
bottles of HyomeI can be obtained for
80 cents. 1t is not alone the best lit
might be called the only method of
curing oatarrh, but it is also the most
economical.
The Laurens Drug 90. have so much
confidence in the power of Hyomei to
cure catarrh shat they will for a lin
tied time, sell this medicine under
their personal guarantee to refund the
money II the purchasers can say that
IL did not help them.

COMING on THE L
Wonderful Accomplishment of Kellogg,
the ''Bird Warbler.D

The San Francisco Chronicle says Of
Kellogg, who will appear in the Opera
House on the 10Th. under the auspices
of the Lyceum:
Last evening there was introduced
to the Sac Francisco public q young
man with q power of vocalization which
is astonishing. Charles d. Kellogg
was advertised upon the program as a
bird warbler" but there were few, if
any, who had any idea of the nature Of
his wonderful accomplishment. Miss F..
r. Crowell sat at the piano and played
the first blrs Of the "Gretchen Ca
votte," and immediately there chimed
in with the notes of the piano, varying
and %improvising upon the melody, but
always in parfsc C harmony, tho re-
markable nc es of Mr.. Kellogg's voice.
1t was not whist'ing, nor was it ''yod-
ling" in which so many vocalists are
experts. 1t was so unlike anything
ever heard before, and so beautiful,
that the audience was s%pellbound.-
"Bird warbing" is the proper name for
it, for it is a perfect reproduction of
the singing of birds; but he does what
the %feathered songster cannot do-he
interprets in bird language the most
difficult musical compositions."

HAPPY RESULTS.

Residents Enthusiastic.

No wonder scores OF Laurens citizens
grow enthusiastic. IL is enough to
make anyone happy to find relief after
years of suffering. Public statements
like the following are but truthful re-
presentations Of the daily work done in
Laurens by Doan's Kidney Pills.
Charles Loke, mill hand, of Factory
Hill, says: Cd )an's kidney Pills in my
opinion are the best backache cure in
this world. They cured me and 1 have
had backache for at least two years,
aud have been so bad at times [ could
not get out of bed, much less go to
work. 1 have had my wife rub it with
liniment until it was all a blister. I
tried numerous remedies but without
them doing me one bit OF good. The
secret!ous from the kidneys were as red
as blood, full of sediment and | could
not hold them, especially at night
when my rest was broken, on account
of my having to get up q number of
times. 1 learned of Doan's Kidney
Pills and sent to the Palmetto Drug
Co for a box. [ did not believe they
would do me any more good than the
other remedies | had tried, but | was
mistaken. L felt better the very next
day, and my back gradually became
strong and the aching disappeared. 1
do not have to get up at nights now at
all and the kidneys have become regu-
lar and natural in action.

There's No Particular Secret

About making -four and yet given
the same mill, same machinery aud
same wheat, no two milIers will make
flour exactly alike. Besides the techi-
nal skill there's a "knack" In making
flour and Brapsford's miller has it to
an exceptional degree. That's one rea-
son why "Ciflon" proves so distress
ingly popular that wherever it is sold,
competitors are obliged to recognize
it as g standard and offer their flour as
''iust as good"
