A Warning to Mothers.

Too much care cannot be taken
with small children during the hot
weather of the summer months to
guard against bowel troubles. AS a
rule it is only necessary to give a
child a dose of castor oil to correct
any disorder of the bowels. Do not
use any substitute, but give the old
fashioned castor oil, and see that it
is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and
has a tendency to grippe. If this does
not check the bowels give Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and then dose Of castor
oil. and the disease may be checked in
it's incipiency and all danger avoid
ed. The castor oil and this remedy
should be procured at once and kept
ready for instant use as soon as the
first indication of any bowel trouble
appears. This is the most successful
treatment known and may be relied
upon with implicit confidence even in
cases of cholera infantum. For sale

/ CREDIT TO HIS PROFESSION.
No Obstacles Baked This Doctor in

covered any new method Of coping
with disease; be is not known. per-
haps, beyond limited circle of
friends and acquaintances. Yet DR..
Richards has earned the respect and
esteem of all to whom these presents
may come We wish him long life
and wide celebrity.
The other day Dr. Richards receiv-
eb telephone message stating that
several men had been injured in an
explosion in the Kirwin gold mine
near Meeteet tse, 100 miles away. He
was asked if be could come and do
what he could to relieve the suffer

The road from Thermopolis to Nee

winds through rugged hills and in
many places is but half-broken
trail. Ordinarily it takes about two
days to drive or ride from Thermopo-
lis to Meeteetse. DR.. Richards did it
in less than eleven hours. If he had
considered his own comfort he would
have gone slowly or not at all. He
would not have ridden at breskneck
speed along the rough trail. dismouut-
ing from jaded horse at times to
mount fresh one. But men were
suffering, perhaps dying for lack of
medical or surgical aid that only Dr.
Richards could give and he knew it.
Happily, he arrived in time to re-
lieve the distress that occasioned his
ride against death. We hasten to pay
our tribute of respect to Dr.. Richards.
He is man among men. He will say
be did only his plain duty, but there
are doctors who would not have gone
to Meeteetse. Fortunately, though,
they are few. AS we have heretofore
had occasion to remark, no profession
contains as many self-sacrifcing men
as the medical profession, none con-
tains as many men who personal sac
ri6ce, bodily discomfort, danger to
themselves are of little Importance
when weighed in the balance with the
suffering of others.
DR.. Richards is not an exception.
Rather is he type of his profession.

CONGRESSMAN F1NLEY's BOYS.
How Their Mother Tried to Break
Them From Smoking.

Columbia, S. c.. Aug. I'm q
party of friends consisting OF tour
gentlemen and newspaper reporter,
Congressman j. E. Finley, of York
Vile told good story at the Metro
polition club today concerning the
efforts of Mrs. Finley to cure sheir
three sons from smoking" rabbit tobac
co.. The moral of the story got lost
in the shuttle, but the manner In
which the congressman related the in.
cidentideliehted his hearers. Col. K.
Mayes Cleveland, of Greenville was
telling of his experience with his first
and only cigar, which he smoked when
be was six years old.
"That reminds me of joke on Mrs.
Finley said the congressman. "On
recent occasion while I was away
from home she discovered our three
youngest boys plotting to get out after
some rabbit tobacco" and the idea
occurred to ber to nip their appetite for
smoking by giving them an overdose
of the genuine article. I had left some
big strong cigars on the mantle. and
pointing to them she said to the boys
"If you want to smoke, why don't you
90 at it like father there are some
real cigars. "Did they slink away?
Well, not much. They got to work
on tno>e cigars in no time.
The boy next the youngest saw that
he couldn't make the trip as soon as be
fred up and he quit before suffering
any damage but the other two boys
smoked through and it never phased
them.
Mrs. Finley was the most disgusted
woman to be found in the county.
A member of the party remarked that
the fact that Mr.. E. ". Robertson.
one of the most successful business
men in this section, smoked cigaretts
until the stain was left on his fingers
could not be used as an eloquent argu-
ment against cigarette-smoking, which
caused an officer of Mr.. Robertson's s
bank to quote Judge Haskell, who has
made life study of health questions.
as saying that the cigarette is less
injurious form of smoking than the
cigar.
The congressman expressed his atti:
tude toward the judges opinion by
relating an incident which occurred
during service in the Episcopal
Church at Yorkville which he and his
family we're attending because Of their
attachment for the Episcopal rector,
the Rev. Mr.. Johnson. although they
are member of another denomination.
"The boys we're on intimate terms
with Mr.. Johnson and were among
his most enthusiastic admirers, Mr..
Finley added cit was Christmas
season sermon. Bob, who is five years
old, was all attention while the cler.
gyman was drawing word picture OF
the pleasures and joys of the season,
but truobled look came over his face
when Mr.. johnson incidentally de-
scribed Santa Claus as delusion
invented to please the children He
staigntened up in his seat and gesti-
culatine at his mother he said aloud:
"Mother, you know 1 don't believe
word Mr.. johnson is saying
sThen to further emphasize his dis
gust and contempt he fell over in his
mothers lap and dropped off to sleep. y

HOW TO SAVE WOODS.
santee Cypress Lumber Company IS
Doing Good Work.

Columbia, July 3.-According tc a
report by an expert from the agrlcul-
tural department at Washington the
Santee River Log and Cypress Com.
pany has adopted scientific means OF
preserving the timbe, lands from Col
un,bia to Wateree and that the com
pany has practically all ineXhaustlole
supply. The company has been III
operation along the banks OF the Con-
earee tor a number of years and has
cut millions of feet of timber. Rights
to timber have been obtained for about
fifty miles along the river and the rule
of the company has been to cut trees
of certain size. AS result on
account of the rapid growth of trees
the company can cnt logs from the
swamps for two hundred years, 1t Is
thought. This does not apply, how
ever, to the cypress timber, which is
being rapidly thinned out. Ine cy-
press tree takes over a hundred years
TO mature and the demand for 1t has
been so great that there are few trees
left in this section OF the country.
The Santee Company has placed Mr.:
J. M. Bates, of Eastover. in charge OF
the work, under Mr.. J. Cross, the
general superintendent, who was Sent
here by the Chicago capitalists back
of the company. Mr.. Bates succeeds
Mr.. Fred Saeley, who left here some
time ago for the West.
The work of cutting the timber is
now being scientifically directed and
there is absolutely no waste. although
it is stated that some of the logs cut
we're so large that they broke down a
steel wagon having wheels twelve feet
in diameter.
