KEEPING PACE WITH DEMANDS.
This VIII Be Truly u Greater State
Fafr--ft Begins on October 25tIl-
Ample Arrangements.

The state Agricultural and Mechani-
cal Society purchased one hundred
acres Of level land in the southern
part OF Columbia last spring on which
to hold Its annual South Carolina State
Fairs. This change was made neces-
sary because the old grounds were too
small to accommodate the large num-
Der OF exhibitors and visitors who an
nually attended the great fairs and
the buildings were no longer suitable
for the purposes for which they were
built. On the new grounds there is
room for everything and for every
body, and they are more conveniently
situated to the transportation lines
than the old grounds were. The dis
tance is less than half mile from the
new union depot, and the grounds are
reached by several fine roads and by
che street car lines. and no trouble will
be experienced in handling the large
crowds that are sure to visit Columbia
Visitors will find everything brand new
this year. The buildings are all modern
In construction, large, airy, and COM
exits and wide aisles. One building is
devoted entirely to the handiwork OF
women, and is set apart from the other
buildings so that the fair sex may en-
Joy themselves without interruption.
Another building Is devoted to the agri-
cultural exhibits and implements. and
another to the commercial exhibits.
Then, the poultry building occupies a
very prominent location and is very
large and roomy The live stock barns
are so arranged that all visitors can
safely and conveniently pass through
all of them and see all the stock at any
time, and the management specially
requests that visitors avail themselves
of this opportunity.
The regulation mile race track Is To-
Gated in the southern part of the
grounds, and is beauty. The races
may be viewed from the Fair grounds
IL 1T be preferred to do so, but a large,
comfortable grand stand is located at
the finish of the home stretch, where
the races can be viewed to much better
advantage and with more comfort. The
quarter stretch Is not separated from
the grand stand as was the case on
the old track. but all are combined
under one inclosure, thus increasing
the social part of the meet.
The Midway or Pike is located hear
the main entrances, and will be filed
with all the modern shows and attrac~
the world, and with people from every
part OF the world. The athletic
grounds are located just opposite the
Midway, on the other side of the
entrance. Here will be played two
excellent games OF football during
Fair week.
The railroads have offered very
cheap rates on account of the first
Greater State Fair, and they will run
most convenient schedules from all
sections OF the State. In view of all
the attractions that have been ar
that the large crowd of last year will
be doubled this fall, and that this
great gathering will be more easily ac-
commodated than In any former year.
Every one ought to attend the only
big fair and social event in the State.

What is DIR. James, Iron
Blood and Liver Tonic?

DR.. James Iron Blood and Liver
Tonic Is o true tonic and blood food
medicine. 1t increases the appetite,
strengthens the whole system, by caus-
ing the most important organs of the
human body to perform their proper
| stituent of the blood; pure blood con-
tains iron. If you are pale, weak and
nervous, you need tonic which ceA-
| taips iron in form that will be absorb
| ed by the system and enter the blood.
DIR. James Iron Is. B.ood and Liver Tonic
supplies the proper amount. Now, tho
largest and most important organ of
the human body must be looked after
the liver. torpid liver means impure
blood, a bad complexion, and dull eye
ana brain; so you can see the great ne
| oessity of an active. healthy liver. The
moment your liver fails to act every or
pan suffers. Your stomach aid digest
I've organs become affected. The gates
of the citadel OF life are thrown wide
| open, and diseases OF every DESCRIPTION
| attack the body. DR.. James IrOu Blood
and Liver Tooic contains laxative
| drug, which acts on the liver, relieving
| biliou!ness and cures chronic constipa-
| tion. We go still further, and we find
| when person is suffering from consti-
patton almost invariably their diges-
| tion is poor, the food fails to nourish
| and strengthen. DR.. James Iron Blo1d
and Live Tonic cures Indigestion and
dyspeps. IL causes the food you eat
TO assim.. ate, and the process of diges-
tion is again active. Nine tenths ot our
people suffer from indigestion and con-
| stipation; to these we recommend the
great tonic compound.

A JupIcIous INQUIRY.

A we'll known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for child or
for an adult, and II for child they al
most invariably recommended Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this Is that they know there is no
danger from 1t and that 1t always cures.
There Is not the least danger In giving
1t, and for coughS, colds and croupIit ia
unsurpassed. For sale by Laurens
Drug Co and DR.. B. f. Posey.
