Strenuous Chjvajry,

1t is complained that modern condi-
tions are killing ''the chivalry Of the
middle ages" But medieval tales
and rolnances show what that chivalry
really was. Wife beating was a com.
mon incident on the part of those
knights and gentlemen whose gallantry
was mere convention. The Chevalier
de Ia Tour-Landry in his book Of coun-
sells to his daughters tells them the
story of woman who used to contra
dict her husband in public. One day,
after expostulating in vain, he knock
ed her down, then kicked her face and
broke her nose. And sO,' comments
the good chevalier. ''she was disfig-
ured for life. aud thus, through her i'll
behavior and bad temper, she had her
nose spoiled. which was great mis-.
fortune to her" But not word is said
about the husbands brutality.

STOPS ANY ITCHING.
DOdn'S Ointment Cures Eczema and
Itching Piles. Union People Rec
commend II.

One application OF Doan's Ointment
stops any itching. Short treatment
cures eczema, itching piles, salt rheum
any skin eruption or skin itching. 1t
is the cheapest remedy to use, be-
cause SO little of it is required to
bring relief and cure Here is I'm
ion testimony to prove it:
]. B. Neal, mill operative, Of IS Mill
street, says: Il had very bad sore
on my left leg, which bothered me for
the past ten or twelve years. l con-
suited different physicians about it.,
and they each gave me some salve for
it, but it would not heal up. 1t itched
all the time and was very annoying
and | have scratched it until it would
bleed and then it would discharge a
yellowish matter for days and weeks at
a time and be very sore. I learned of
Doan's Ointment and procured box.
] found it to be most valuable salve.
1T has cured up the sore entirely and
only left the scar"

False Messiah.s.

The defense of different persons
claiming to be the Messiah has cost
the Jews a great expense, both In
treasure and human life. One of these.
Coziba, who lived in the second cen
tury of our era, put himself at the
head of the Jewish nation as their
Messiah, and many of that people ad.
hered to and defended him. The Ro-
mans made war upon CoZiba and his
followers. and, according to admissions
made by eminent Jewish authority:
they lost somewhere between 100000
and 100000 men in his defense. The
last Of these impostors was AIordecai.
a German. who first claimed to he of
divine origin in the year 1852. When
the authorities threatened to punish
him as an impostor he fed, and his end

Surf Riding Is a Fine Sport.

At Waikiki, near Honolulu, Is a IA.
nous bathing beach. Here winter and
summer the surf canoes or, better yet.
the surf boards come dancing in OH the
long rollers. and men become amphib-
ious. There Is no sensation quite COM
p ale 10 riding a surf board on a
Facihc role. 1t is tobogganing OH a
moving hillside Of water, or, If you are
clever enough to stand up OH your
board. it is taking this hillside on a
single big skee. The beach runs far
out before 1t shelves into deep water,
and at high tide the breakers begin to
mount almost half mile from the
shore line. You go out there with your
surf board and wait for the wave. You
learn to catch It at the right moment,
throw your board inshore and climb
upon 1t just as the crest OF the roller
mounts and catches you. Then on this
crest you sail In toward the shore, to
slide down Mt last when the wave
breaks, down the foaming incline into
shallow water and churning foam. 1t
Is royal sport.-Travel Magazine.

The readers OF this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation OF the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-

Rapid Growth.

The most remarkable instance Of
rapid growth was recorded by the
French academy in 1920. 1t was u
boy six years of age five feet six inches
In height. At the age of five his voice
changed; at six his beard had grown
and he appeared a man Of thirty. He
possessed great physical strength and
could easily lift to his she llders and
carry bags of grains weighing 200
pounds. His decline was as rapid as
his growth. At eight his hair and
beard were gray. at ten he tottereh
In his walk, his teeth fell out and his
hands became palsiel; ut twelve he

Obituary.

Shoi ioeVO ". "IeSoTy uleQ
on May 6, 1907, at the home of her
son-in-law, John S. Going, having
suffered for eighteen months with
that dreadful disease, cancer. In
all of this affliction she was perfect
ly resigned to the will of the Lord
and prayed to the last, "Oh, Lord.
Thy will be done and not mine. y
And thus she passed away, as she
lived Christian, soul fitted for
Heaven.
The subject of this sketch was
born August 1871, in Bogansville
township, Union county, S. c.,
near Lower Fair Forest church, and
was nearing her sixty-sixth year
ut the time of her death. She was
a daughter of the late Rev. John
Gibbs, a Baptist minister of blessed
memory who also died of cancer.
Iwenty-six years ago she joined the
New Prospect Baptist church near
Cross Keys in 1857, under the
preaching of Rev. Carlus Fielder
and later on joined Putnam church
by letter, of which she was men,
ber at the time of her death.
In November 1859 she married
Cit Gregory, of Santuc, who in a
short time after went to the war.
He was kind father and loving
husband. Only for a short time he
was permitted to be with them.
He left home for the last time.
when his baby was only about
twelve hours old, never to see his
wife and children again, for he
died in the service of his country
just two days before Lees surredder
at Appomattox Court House., Va.
and was buried near Amelia Court
House, Va. When this sad news
reached his wife by returning SOL
diers and friends after the surren-
der, her young. heart was over
whelmed with sorrow. Grave as
the situation was this. young. widow
and mother met the consequences
and raised her three girls with
honor and credit.
These girls are married as fol-
lows: Mrs. Katie Gillian, of Goshen
Hill; Mrs. Sallie Going and Mrs.
Susie Gregory, of Bogansville.
These three daughters and eleven
grand children; two full sisters,
Mrs. j. H. Williams, of Glendale;
Mrs. Mary Reid, of Texas; and
two half sisters. Mrs. Gordon
Williams, of Union and Mrs. Belle
Meador, OF Meador, and host of
other relatives and friends, who
mourn the loss of our relative and
friend, who was always kind to the
sick and sympathizing with those
in distress.
She was buried at Putnam
church, the funereral services being
Conducted by her pastor, Rev. J.
X. Funderburk. The large congre-
COTTON at the funeral and the many
loving hands that tenderly placed
flowers on her grave showed that
she was held in loving remem-
brance; and seeing this, l could
only wish that one so deserving
could have seen these tokens of love
in life, and these flowers put into
ner hands that she might behold
their beauty and fragrance.
We miss thee from our home, dear
mother,
We miss thee from thy place.
A shadow o'er our life is cast;
We miss the sunshine of thy face,
We miss thy kind and willing hand,
Thy fond and earnest care,
Our home is dark without thee,
We miss thee everywhere.

The Body Of Man.

Apparently the fashion OF populari1ed
medical books has not gone out. The most
modern form will be found in the two large
volumes of THE Standard Family Physi-
clan" by Prof. Carl Reissig and DR.. Smith
Ely Jelliffe OF Columbia Funk and Wagnalls
Company. The authors nave been assisted
by thirty-three Germa and ten American
physicians Of repute in their several special
ties. At the beginning is a condensed
treatise on physiology; this is followed by a
medical dictionary, with clear definitions,
and hints as to the treatment Of the diseases.
The book can in no way enable the reader
20 dispense with a physician, but it may help
him to understand what his doctor tells him
There are many Illustrations, and in the
first volume will be found an elaborate sex
less manikin in colors.
No subject OF late years has engaged med
icsl attention more than nutrition. and in
that line the experiments made by Prof.
Russell H. Chittenden Of Yale University
have beer Of eminent interest. His lectures
delivered before the Lowell Institute, now
amplifed into The Nutrition OF Man
Frederick A. Stokes Company, contain a
summary Of the whole question Of nutrition,
with the results deduoed from experiment.
Medical men will naturally derive most
benefit from the book, but Prof. C~hittenden's
exposition is 10 clear that the layman can
follow him easily, and the experimental part.

attract the attention Of even the unecientifc
mind. Here lie a very full account Of all that

Art.

An unusually good book has been written
by Mrs. Eugene Strong in Roman Sculpt-
ure' (Duokworth and Company; Charles
Scribner's Sons). Mrs. Strong IL librarian
for the Duke Of Devonshire at Chatsw orth
and has established her reputation as an
authority on art. In this volume she
takes up a neglected subject, and even
her pleading cannot make Roman sculpture
as attractive as Greek. She dem onstrates
it's importance, however; proves that it
must be studied, and points out the really
fine work the Romans did. She employs
many pictures; she draws copiously from
the Ara Pdcis and from Trajan's column
and reproduces many portrait busts. She
writes with originality and vigor, in delight
full contrast 70 some art criticism. and she
shows thorough knowledge Of the works Of
art she describes.
Sir William Beechey was an eetimable
portrait painter whose pictures, we imagine,
derive more value from the distinction Of
the persons he portrayed than from their
respectable artistic merit. He has shared
little in the recent appreciation Of early
English painting. His life was industrious
but uneventful. 1t is therefore just as
well that his biographer, w. Roberts,
should abstain from critical estimates and
merely record what he did. The book
is written pleasan tly and the many por-
traits reproduced are interesting. 1t is
published by Duckworth and Company
