Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs OF red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
lnvalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not-only reeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

Dear Sir:c You ask how many feet /

ton Of building.
There is Q great deal of lying on this
point. The stock claim OF lying paints
is 800 square feet, two coats. It's lie,
as rule.
Deyoe covers 800 to 500, our agents
think. We think 800 too low and 500 too
high; though doubtless, they both occur
How much the other paints cover is
equally doubtful; we guess 100 to 400.
The truth is found in another COM
parison. Devoe is all paint, true paint,
strong paint, and full measure; the

luted, adulterated and shorttmeasure.

The Temperance Lecture.

We will head our column this week
with gratitude and thanks to Rev. b. L.
Padgett for his good and touching lee
ture on temperance last Saturday after
noon in the Court House. We have
heard some of the drinking mon remark
that it was the most touching lecture
they had ever heard, and we trust that
Christian hearts are pleading to the
Great Mediator for the uplifting of suffer
ing humanity, and we will be glad when
all the Christian people get into high
thinking and pure living, and let our
morning prayer close with the words of
the Psalmist: "Create within me clean
heart, o God, and renew q right spirit
within me. Let the words of my mouth
and the meditations of my heart be ac-
ceptable in thy sight, o Lord, my strength

Ihe LOYAL temperance LepIoa.

There was no meeting of the j.. II. L.
last Sunday afternoon, owing to the sud-
den illness of Mrs. Kay, who has been
conducting the meetings for Mrs. s. N.
Pitohford, the leader, until she is able to
take them In charge herself. The chill.
dren were no doubt very much disap-
pointed, as they had expected to receive
their badges and some new books on that
day. We hope that Mrs. Kay will soon
be In good health again, and that there
will be nothing to prevent full attend
ance Of all the members at the next meet
ing, which will be held next Sunday
afternoon at 8 O'Clock at the usual place.
Let each member try to bring others and
get them to join the society.
We were pleased to enroll six bows az
members at the last meeting While we
are always glad to see the girls, yet, for
obvious reasons, we wish the boys espe-
cially to come. So far the girls have been
very much in the majority. The boys
should not let the girls get ahead of them
in good works.
Sam Jones says that zone reason why
there is no marrying nor giving In mar
riage In heaven is becanse there are so
many more women than men up there
that If each woman was required to have
a husband the men would have to he
Mormons, as there wouldn't be enough
of them to go around" tits to be hoped
that heis mistaken, but it certainly does
look as If there was a strong probability
of his being right when you go to church,
or prayer meeting, or any religious gath
ering and compare the number of women
with the number of men.
If the parents will only do their duty
in regard to these meetings by giving the
children permission, they will all be
pretty sure to come. Young people are
generally ready for diversion of any
kind-hence the necessity of providing
them with a diversion of the right
kind-especially on Sunday afternoons.
There is too much Sabbath breaking
going on these days, and too>iittle "re,

are commanded to do. The american

The young people can certainly spend
their time pleasantly and profitably at
these meetings, and eternity will bring
them no regret for having attended
them. W, C.T.U.

Distinguished Visitors.


DIR. E. L. Connally and wife. of Atlanta,
Ga, spent two days in Walhalla last
week as tho guests of Mrs. T. A. Norton
and family. They were returning from
the Sapphire country and took their
relatives and friends in Walhalla by sur
prise, as their coming was not known in
advance. Mrs. Connally is q daughter
OF the late Governor Joseph e. Brown.
Her mother was a daughter of Rev.
Joseph Gresham, whose home was in
West Union, and sister of the late
Judge j. j. Norton's mother. This was
Mrs. Connally's first visit to Walhalla.
and naturally she found many things of
interest, the home of her maternal grand
parents having been here for SO many
years. Her mother was married in the
house now owned and occupied as resi-
dence by Capt. John G. Neville, of West
Union, it being at that time church.
The wedding feast was spread in q house
which stood on the site of the residence
of Capt. r. G. Strother then the home
of Rev. Joseph Gresham. 1t will be re-
the largest land owner at that time in
this section He afterwards sold to the
German Col, lization Society the land on
which the town of Walhalla was founded,
together with contiguous tracts extend
ing even to High Falls, and comprising
over seventeen thousand acres. Thus it
was that her visit afforded peculiar
pleasure, besides the enjoyment of the
hospitality of her near relatives and dear
friends, Mrs. Norton and daughter, Miss
Sallie. While here DR.. and Mrs. Con
nally called to see Capt. and Mrs. F. r.
Sharp, also Mrs. Margaret Steele at the
home of Capt. A. III. Ellison. They also
met several of our citizens who appre-
ciate the forming of their acquaintance.
1t is hoped that they will return at no
distant day and stay longer.
