Good Start Made.

The action taken by the meeting last
week to induce the railways TO change
the passenger stations location was
precisely what it should have been.
The ADVERTISER would advise, how
ever, that If the endeavor is to succeed,
it must be sustained, A mere request
once or twice presented is not likely to
result in bringing about the desired
change. 1t is possible that committee
after committee will have to make
visit after visit to The various companies
before they discover that the people
are in real earnest. Whenever they
reach the conclusion that public senti-
ment has been thoroughly aroused and
to such a degree that they cannot safely
Ignore 1t, they will act and not till
then. Railroad corporations have a
wholesome respect for public senti-
ment in action, but they are not hasty
to obey occasional and surface nantes
tations.
AS to the propriety and the neces-
sity of the depot change, there is but
one side to the argument. The passen-
ger depot at present stands as a nui-
sance and ~unceasing danger to life and
property. We have heard intelligent
people go so far as to say that the loca-
ton of the depot is in itself prima facie
evidence of criminal negligence on the
part of the railroad company In contri-
buting to any accident that may there
occur and that they would 80 estimate
it in the trial of any resulting damage
case in the court.

TR1UMPHS OF MODERN SUR
gerry.

Wonderful things arc done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and sclaped and polished
and put back, or they may be removed
entirely; bones are spliced; pipes take
the place of diseased sections of veins;
antiseptic dressings are applied to
wounds, bruises, burns and like inju-
ries before Inflammation sets in, which
causes them to heal without matura-
tion and In one-third the time required
by the old treatment. Chamberlain's
Pain Balm acts on this same principle.
1t is an antiscptic and when applied to
such injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. Tt also allays the pain and
soreness. Keep a bottle of Pain Balm
In your home and it will save you time
and money, not to mention the incon.
%venience. For sale by Laurens Drug
Co.

PILL TRADE MARK INITIATED.
Druggist md Clerk Are Held in Bail
for Court.

Charged with infringing upon the trade
mark of Carter's Little Liver Pill Com
pany, Joseph T. Griffith, druggist at the
southeast corner of Eleventh and Vine
streets, was held in $500 bail for Court
this afternoon by Magistrate Jermon, and
at the same time Griffith's clerk. Joseph
G. Fore, was held in $500 bail for Court on
the same charge, ard also for selling GER
tain articles the sale If which is prohibited
by law.
The men were arrested this morning
upon warrants issued by Magistrate Jer-
mon at the instance of Brent Good, No.
100 West Fiftyseventh Street, New York,
and Charles Z. Orcutt, No. u Jumel Ter
race, New York, representatives of the
Carter Company. They stated that the
latter had spent S3,OO0,0O0 in advertising
and getting their label known, and did not
purpose to permit others to reap the bene-
fits.
The label in question is a small one con-
tanning large letter l., and the one used
by Griffith is an exact copy, except that it
does not contain Carter's name.
The prosecution showed how easily the
imitation product could be palmed off on
the would-be purchaser of Carter's pills,
owing to the similarity of the labels, and
held that it was evidence of deliberate
attempt to deceive.-Philadelphi Tele-
