y olIIl|g(y Plants /

= Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants arc weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some groW rig
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.

FORMER COLUMBIAN
GUILTY OF BlGAMY.
Arrested In Atlanta at tho Instance OF
First YifO.

Arrested In Atlanta at tho Instance OF
First Yifc.
A shocking story Of the light,
ness with which marital ties are
regarded has reached Columbia
through tho arrest Of 0. E. Den
nard, who is charged with blgamy
He has a wife living in Atlanta,
and his second wife is IN Columbia.
He himself was at one time flag
man in tho employ Of the Southern
and has number of acquaintances
among the railroad people, and
they were very much surprised.
But the story is told by the At
lanta papers. The Evening News
says:
"Because he has one moro wife
than the law allows, 0. E. Don
nard, .33 years old, who formerly
resided in Atlanta, is held priso-
ner at police barracks. DeDnard
was arrested Thursday morning at
15l Luclxie street by Patrolman
Phillips on complaint of Mrs. Dem
nard No. /.
"Dennard admits his guilt, but
says he intended securing IL dl-
vorce from his first wife just after
he married the second timo, but
was prevented by reason of not
having sufficient money. Mrs.
Denpard No. l, has two chiIdron
in Atlanta, and Mrs. Dennard No.
2, has baby three weeks old at
Columbia, S. c., where Dennard is
III the contracting business. Wife
No. 3, does not know of his arrest.
"Mrs. Dennard No. /, was Miss
Ellen Glendorn Cherry, and he
married her II yeals ago in At
lanta. About three years ago
they separated and Dennard went
to Columbia, s. c., where he says
he married Miss Lila Story on
Dec. 30, 1900.
"Dennard s arrest was made on
the complaint Of his first wife.
He was told that if he came to At
lanta he would be given the two
children hy his first wife. He
reached hero this morning and
Patrolman Phillips was waiting for
for him. Tho arrest was made
shortly after his arrival.

but that he fully intended securing
a divorce from his first wife and

TO COAA. FIELDS.
Southern May Build Line From WAL
halIa Into Tennessee.

A year or moro ago there was
much talk about a railroad from
Walhalla, S. G., through Macon
county, N. c., and into Tenn. but
the question has for some time been
still. 1t is now learned that this line
has been surveyed and the cons
tract has been partly let for q new
road for the Southern from Wall
halla to Maryville, Tenn. -
A look at the map Of the co,intry
will show at glance what saw
ing in carrying coal can be effec-
ted by the building Of 100 miles
or less Of railroad, through a fer
tile country that needs the road
and will produce enough to give it
business. From Maryville to Wal
halla a direct line is less than 100
miles, and, while it ia a mountain.
GUS country. the grade is -easv.
Loe~ius Maryville for 20 miles or
moro you strike the Tennessee Riv-
or, and following it and It's tributa-
ries you get very near Walhalla
without crossing any hills. We arc
informed on good authority that,
many years ago tunnel was made
nearly through the hills, four miles
from Walhalla, by railroad COM
pany which failed, and it is pos
sible that the Southern will utilize
this long lost work in crossing to
South Carolina.
From Knoxville to Seneca, S. o.,
whore the road from Walhal]a
crosses the Southern's main line,
it is 288 miles: and that is the
route over which is hauled coal
and other freight. From Knox
VILE to Seneca, by Walhalla, it is
but little more than 100 miles.
1t does not take al expert to
see that this road opens q new
route that ls surprising. Freight
traffic is now congested over the
long lines named, and the build.
| ing Of this road would be al easy
solution Of that congcsted state,
and open comparatively unknow
and beautiful part Of North Caro-
lima.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
Boldness of Negro Desperadoes at Pom
dleton Saturday Night.

Boldness of Negro Desperadoes at pen-
dleton Saturday Night.
Mr.. s. l.. Eskew, of Pendleton,
was IN Anderson Thursday and
told of q bold attempt at highway
robbery in that town Saturday
night.
Two negroes who live near Pen
dloton had started to their home
about 10 o'clock. They were
walking. and had several bundles
in their orms. As they reached
the railroad bridge they were
stopped by two strange negroes
armed with pistols, and Com mand-
ed to deliver their goods. They
were a little slow in complying
with the request, and one Of the
highwaymen struck one of negroes
over tho head with bludgoon, in.
nicting q painful wound. The
highwaymen captured one Of the
negro's packages, bundle of dry
goods, and made off in the dark
ness.
Tho alarm was gwen, but it was
impossible to get On track Of the
dcsperadoes that night. Some ar
rests have been made since, but
the suspected parties were releas-
ed for lack OF evidence. Mr.. Es.
kew said, however, that he is sat-
isfied that the guilty parties will
yet be brought to justice.

LaBorde, who now holds the posi-

tion.
State house officials, most OF
who arc now c,mers here, find
that Columbia is very expensive
place in which to 1--we. Rents are
high as compared with most other
places in the State; provisions are
as high as elsewhere and ser.
wants command good wages. The
experience of most of the State Off
cials has been that, unless they
have other sources Of income, from
their homes or professions, they
run behind.
State officials who are expected
to do any amount Of entertaining
cannot possibly live upon their in
comes. This may seem strange,
but the fact is that no governor in
recent years has been able to come
out even OH his salary, and the SAL
ary Of governor is the best that is
paid by the State-$3 800. Of
course there will be plenty of meu
who want the glory Of being elec-
ted governor Of this glorious State
and there are many men who
would accept tho Office without pay,
but it is we'll to know how things
stand.
Aside from the expenses of living
III Columbia there is the expense
of the primary system. In some
states the legitimate expenses Of a
campaign are paid by the state.
In this State every candidate has
TO Pay his own transportatlon,-un-
less he has rasses-has to settle
with tho hotels, pay for advertise
ing, get up his plate matter for the
papers, have supplementary tick
cts printed. encounter the commit
tee with the list for the building
of a new church or bridge, attend
the fairs and perhaps arrange to
have some "friend' at certain
boxes, and "friend' usually &C
cepts pay for 'his time" 1t is
surprising how these little things
count up.
One Of the candidates in the re-
cent State campaign kept a close
tab on what money he spent. He
is satisfied that every cent he OK
pended was for legitimate and nee
essary expenses, and that he did
not use any money in an improper
way or to influence u single vote.
His books show that he actually
expended 1928 for expenses during
the campaign and that he "chipped
away 5000 for incidentals, sub
scriptions, tips and the like. In
other words, the expenses of the
primary were 1928. This applies
to defeated as we'll as to SUCCESS
ful candidates, and this is low
average, as some defeated candi-
dates spent twice that much to be
defeated, and it all went to meet
legitimate expenses and keep pace
wi tn other candidates.
