Brings Whitecappers Into Action.
Special to Times Republican.
Laurens Feb 26-G. O. Brown, an
old man of 70 years of age, was run
out of town Friday night, after being
terribly beaten by AN angry mob
Brown, who is photographer, was
accused of taking undue liberties With
two little girls who had been frequent
visitors at his gallery. Before running
Brown out of town the mob burned his
gallery, and then horse whipped him IN
the street. The old man protested his
innocence and 1t is now said that the
little girls claim they do not charge
Brown with any crime. Frank Kemp
and John Ackland, relatives of the
girls mentioned, have been arres;e l.,
charged with leading a mob. There is
some fear that Brown may have Wan-
dered away and died of exposure. as
no trace of him has been found. Inc
sentiment of the community is consil-
erably divided over the affair.

THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Men-The Influence Of Z
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestmated.

Seven-eighths OF the
men in this world marry
. woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes
because she has the quail
ties which inspire admira-
ton, respect and love.
There is a beauty in
health which il more at
tractive to men than mers
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition; because Of
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
Whata disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head! A sickly, half
dead-and-alive woman,
especially when she il
the mother of . family,
is a damper to all joyous

drug upon her husband.

If woman finds her energies are
tagging, and that everything tires her,
dark shadows appear under her eyes.
her sleep is disturbed by horrible
dreams; if she has backache, head
aches, bearing-down pains, nervous

should take means to build her system
up at once by tonic with specific
powers. such as Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
This great remedy for women has
done more in the way of restoring
health to the women of America than
all other medicines put together. 1t is
the safeguard of woman's health.
