Letter to W. S. Cross, WaIhalIa.

Dear Sir: You buy your horseshoes
and nails; your grandfather, if he was a
blacksmith, made 'em. You can't afford
to hammer them out by hand Wien you
can buy as good, or better perhaps,
roadymade to your hand, for little
more than the cost of the iron.
What do you think Of painter who
goes on buying his linseed oil and white
lead, and mixing, and tinting by hand,
and charging his time for work that is
far bettcr-douc than he can do it. done
by machinery, done as your horsesho hoes
and nails are made.
Mistake, isn't t2
He is wasting his chance in the world.
There is no better stuff to do business
with than good horseshoes and paint;
and no better work than putting them
on. Good horseshoes we'll put on: It's
the putting 'em on that makes you a
blacksmith: no matter who makes 'em.
Who wants to go back to old times,
and make his own horseshoes?
Between us two, that painter don't
know how to make good paint-he used
to; but paint has run away from him.
Yours truly,

sense of the people as expressed 10y
the popular vote. The people are
recovering their senses and they in
tend to be heard on this. They are
settling it as fast as they can in ac-
cord with right and reason.
The Senator's Biblical argument
if intended to support the dispen-
sary or Justify the drinking of liquor
as q beverage hardly invites eXami-
nation. As rule each man reads
his own Bible and each will doubt
less find, as the writer does, that HIS
Bible does not read that way for him.
Enough for the dispensary. What
are the real arguments for prohibi-
ton?
1. 1t is Scriptural. The Bible
everywhere seeks to minimize crime
with a "thou shalt not" There can
be no doubt that if alcoholic liquors,
as we have them, had been known
when the decalogue was penned
there would have been another COM
mandment: "Thou shalt not make
or take or in any way communicate
to another the accursed stuff
2. Any inherent evil that is a
menace to public morals and public
safety should be prohibited by law.
Liquor selling is everywhere recog-
nized as such an evil. All civilized
people outlaw such evils and enforce
the law as best they can unless the
evil be one from which majority
wish to derive supposed pleasure or
profit. But in all cases the best peo-
pie endeavor to prohibit all such
evils by law and this is right.
3. TO prohibit the sale of liquor is
the only ethical solution of the Ii
quor problem, and, therefore, the
only safe one. If we prohibit its
sale and make an honest effort to en-
force the law our duty is met and
our obligation to God and humanity
discharged. If then our boys become
drunkards the responsibility is with
them and those who detile them-not
with us, for we have done all we
could to prevent it. If man brings

Saved from Death.

Newberry, October 14.-Passen-
gers on northbound midday Co.
lumbia, Newberry and Laurens train
tell thrilling story of little child's
almost miraculous escape from death
and Of mothers heroic nterven-
ton. While the train was speeding
between Little Mountain ana ,,hapn,
a six-year- old boy whose name can
not hc learned was standing up on a
car seat by an open window when
the rapidly moving train lurched
around curve and hurled the little
fellow headlong through the window.
The mother, who occupied the seat
behind reached tar over the inter-
vening seat and caught the boys
ankle just as it was disappearing
over the sill. Nothing but moth.
er's love could have made these
slender fingers strong enough to
check the headlong flight and keep
their hold under the terrible strain as
the quivering little body swung to
and fro like II pendulum AT the side
OF the laundering train.
1T was only Il matter of seconds
before Capt. j. S. Land, of Co.
lumbia, who was just opposite, came
TO the woman's aid and drew the
child into the car uninjured. Not a
sound had escaped from the boys
lips during the entire episode, but his
face was white and drawn.

Attorney Generals Ruling About Schools.

Columbia, October IA rather
pc uliar question has come before
State Superintendent of Education
Martin Some time ago the State
Board of Education passed resolu-
tion encouraging the building of new
schools. 1t appears that tract of
land has been left school trustees in
Que of the counties for school pur-
poses, but it is with the condition
that the building shall remain upon
this tract forever and that in case of
removal it shall 90 back to the legal
heirs. On account of the shifting Of
the population it is possible u IN
some day the building may have W
be moved and it was a question as TO
whether the State Board could force
the county trustees not to accept
land under these conditions. A reso-
luton of the board came up and the
whole matter was laid before the as
sistant Attorney General Ioumans,
who decided that the State Board
has authority in the matter in the
following opinion
"That such a resolution as this is
all right.
"Resolved, That county boards of
education shall require all public
school buildings to be constructed
only upon land decided to the trustees
in fee simple that no school build
ing shall be aided by funds under
the school improvement act, unless
constructed according to plans APP
proved by the State Board of Educa-
ton, and furthermore, unless the
building be of first class material and
workmanship upon inspection by the
County Superintendent of Education.
| am of the opinion that it is within
the competency of the State Board
of Education to pass this regulation"

fore his family aud authorizes it's use

suits. SO i'm the case of legalizing
its sale. The man who votes for its
sale in any form becomes responsible
for all the evils that follow. He who
votes against its sale and lends his
influence to support his vote, dis
charges his whole duty. If, then, it
is sold "anyhow" the responsibility is
not on him, but on those who violate
the lava vast difference to one
who has proper regard for his civic
and moral obligation. Under prohi-
tion any man can, of course, order
from without rs much liquor as he
chooses for his own use. But in case
of such order the responsibility for
its effects is on him alone. If, how.
ever, he could buy that same liquor
at home legally then every man who
voted TO create for him the legal
right to buy becomes responsible for
its exercise and for all the conse-
quences which follow. Truly, it is
no trivial matter to cast a vote to le-
'galze crime! Let the people of this
State divest themselves of the re-
sponsiblity for the sins of others by
refusing to vote to lcgalize those sins
or the source from which they arise.
Let those who may persist in doing
the wrong bear the whole RESPONSE
bility for it. The only way to do
this in the case of the liquor traffic
is to vote for prohibition by voting
out the dispcnsary. Let no man
jeopardize the eternal interests of his
sons or his nei ghbor's sons and invite
on himself the responsibility for their
ruin for the sake of the few Dpnnies
that a vote against the dispensary
may add to his tax account, or for
any other reason. Be not deceived
by the educational argument. The
difference in the length of the school
term will be very slight. Even if it
were very great no man could afford
to take the risk. Better an ignorant
boy with a sound moral character
and clean, sober life than an intel
lectual giant in drunkard's grave.
The sale of one bottle OF liquor may
mean more in a boys life than uni
versity education-and it often does.
Fathers cannot afford to take the
risk. Being the father of seven sons,
the writer shall take no such risk.
Therefore vote it out and keep it
out as far as possible.

Daniel j. Sulley, the noted cotton
manipulator of New York, addressed
the cotton farmers at Raleigh, N. c.,
one day last week, about 600 being
present representing the county.
He said when he left New York he
thought he could do some good by
coming among Southern planters and
urging them TO hold their cotton for
higher prices, but that he finds they
are already holding it so well that if
only they hold out a little longer the
victory with II or Ii cent cotton
will surely be theirs. He declared
that as soon us it is known through
out the world that planters are in
grim earnest about holding the crop
the world will pay the planters
price. He expressed the conviction
that the crop this year was really less
than 10,000,000 bales.

WHY DOCTORS FAIL
AND MRS. PINKHAM SUCCEEDS
Plain Reasons Are Here Given to Explain Why Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con-
 pound Cures When Doctors Are Powerless

Awomanis sick; some disease peculiar to her sex is fast developing in her sys- ten. She goes to her family physician and tells him story, bat not the whole story.
 She holds something back, loses her head, becomes agitated, forgets what she wants to say, and finally coneeals what she ought to have told, and thus completely mystifes the doctor
 Is it any wonder, thereS)re, that the doctors fail to cure the disease? |? Still we cannot blame the woman, for it is very embarrassing to detail some of the symptoms of her suffering, even to her family physician.
 It was for this reason that years ago Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, de- termined to step in and help her sex. Having had considerable experience in treating female ills with her Vegetable Compound, she encouraged the women of America to write to her for advice in regard to their complaints, and being a woman, it was easy for her ailing sis ters to pour into her ears every detail of their suffering.
 In this way she was able to do fox them what the physicians were unable to do, simply because she had the proper information to work upon, and from the little group of women who sought her advice years ago a great army of her fellow-beings are to-day constantly applying for advice and re- lief, and the fact that many thou- sands of them have been cured by following the advice of Mrs. Pinkham during the last year is indicative of the grand results which are produced by her unequaled experience and training
 No physician in the world has had such training, or has such an amount of information at hand to assist in the treatment of all kinds of female ills, from the simplest local irritation to the most complicated womb diseases,
 This, therefore, is the reason why Mrs. Pinkham. in her laboratory at Lynn, Mass, is able to do more for the siling women of America than the family physician. Any woman, there fore, is responsible for her own suffer ing who will not take the trouble to write to Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
 The testimonials which we are con- stantly publishing from grateful wo- men establish beyond a doubt the power of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to conquer female diseases.
