He Followed Orders.

An old colonial railway manager
related the following amusing anec-
dote:
"Many years ago." he said, "there
was employed on small railway
with which | was connected fore
man who was noted for doing exactly
as he was told.
ellis work on the line neccsSitated
the erection of a Toulouse, or cabin,
which he was told to have built half
way between two mileposts.
"To get the halfway he stationed
one of his men at one milepost and
one at the other, and instruccd them
to walk toward each other until they
met. The point at which they met he
took as the halfway point, and erect
ed the shanty.
"Then somebody pointed out that,
as one Of the men was a tall, brisk
fellow. and the other short man
with a Shamblin" gait, the method
he had adopted of arriving at the
halfway point was not very exact.
"IIe was annoyed. but did nothing
for some months, and then he took
an opportunity Of consulting the COM
pany's engineer, who happened to be
in the ncighborhood The engineer

measurements which showed that the
tool cabin was some sixty feet nearer
to one milcpost than 70 The other.

Did you ever catch a whiff of foul
breath7 Was ever anything more Of
fensive7 Surely nothing is more hui
initiating to the possessor of such a
breath than TO see friend turn away
in conversation or remind you Of the
odor.
Do such sufferers realize the cause
of this condition. Let us tell them, if
they do not.
1t is nothing but catarrhal con-
dition of the head, throat and lungs.
The mucous membranes are aiseas-
cd and inflamed, constantly secreting
foul poisonous, and nauseating mat
ter which contaminates the very air
one .&reathes, while, if neglected, it
leads to numerous distressing compli-
cations, even consumption and death.
What is the cure7 It is simple one.
Call upon VIM. E. Pelham and Son,
Newberry, S. c., for dollar bottle
of Andes Great Prescription. One
bottle will relieve, often cure, if the
trouble is of long standing, they are
authorized to guarantee a cure with
six bottles, costing five dollars. This
remarkable remedy, purely a vege-
table one, is wonderful blood puri-
fer, and besides catarrhal diseases,
quickly relieves all deraN Ngemdlts of
the stomach, liver and kidneys.
Chronic bladder troubles know no
better remedy. AS a positive cure for
all stages of rheumatism and impuri-
ties Of the blood, it has no equal.
Ask for names of local people who
have been cured by Andes Great
Prescription.

sary he is in favor Of prohibition. This
is a pretty good sign that it will not
be long before South Carolina will
have prohibition; for, as matter OF
fact, the state dispensary is dead
forever dead in South Carolina, and
we believe, like Senator Blease, that
the county dispensaries are nuis-
ance and farce.
When county tries to increase
the sales of liquor by placing it III
every town in the county, whether
the majority Of citizens want it or
not, for the sole purpose of making
money and making money alone, then
it is time for every God-fearing, lib
erty-loving citizen in South Carolina
to rise up with just Indignation and
rid the state of a curse that is fast
dragging us down to the lowest
depths of perdition. Away with the
county dispensaries and their revenue :!
Give us prohibition Lexington Dis
patch.
We would not be surprised if the
sentiment in favor of a straight pro-
hibition law was not much stronger
at the next session Of the legislature
than it was last winter. In fact if
the prohibitionists who were in the
legislature had Joined forces with the
dispensary people who were willing
to vote for prohibition rather than
the Carey-Cothran Act, prohibi-
tion law could have been enacted last
winter, and we would not be at all
surprised that at the next session Of
the legislature a prohibition bill re-
ceives much stronger support than it
did last winter.
The fact is, We arc more and more
inclined to the opinion that where the
sentiment Of the people Is in favor
of the sale Of whiskey that !: would
be better to provide license system
under the provisions Of the constitu-
tion rather than to have county dis
pensary. The liquor question is a
puzzle and it is very difficult to de-
termine what is best to be done in
order to have the least evils resulting
from it's sale. The theory Of the dis
pensary law is probably all right,
but the temptation to make money
out of it is too great and the dan
ger is that it will lead to a money
making affair wherever established.

Newberry, >. Z.
Dear Sir:
AS quite a number Of your citiz-
ems are no doubt considering the
comparative value of the various
building materials now offered, they
will no doubt be mislead into the use
Of so called reinforced concrete. AS
your city has recently suffered n
severe loss from disastrous confla-
grafton, it would no doubt be of in
terest to you if You could secure a
copy of recent publication in San
Francisco entitled "Burnt Clay Pro-
ducts in Fire and Earthquake. - This
is a very attractively prepared pam
ph!et. and will be furnished upon APP
plication to 707 Lankersham Build
ing. Los Angeles, Cal 1t contains
splendid pictures of the wrecked and
damaged buildings Of the unfortunate
city by the Golden Gate, and shows
in n most striking way the compara-
tive value of the several building ma
terials which are now offered. The
buildings constructed Of concrete
seemed to have suffered most both
from earthquake and fire.
AS so many Of your citizens are
vitality interested in this question at
this time, I trust you will give this
card space in your next issue.
Yours truly,

patch.
Well, now do you mean to say that
the state dispensary decreased the
use Of whiskey, or that was its pur-
pose.
Was it not fact that each admin
istration seemed to take more pride
in the business that was done, the
sales that were made and the pro-
fits that resulted rather than show
ing the small amount of
whiskey consumed. The fact of the
matter is that the state dispensary
as we'll as the county dispensary
seems to have been in the business
for the money that could be made.
We heard not long ago promi-
nent citizen Of Columbia, who has
always been strong advocate of the
state dispensary, say that he now be-
lieves in the county dispensary, and
his main reason for change of be-
lief was, that in Richland county the
county dispensary was making about
$4,000 per month clear. AS a mat
ter Of fact, if we are to have whis-
key sold by the state or by the coun-
ty, We think that it Is just as we'll
to make some money. out of it. As a
moral question, it is no greater sin to
make $4,000 than it is to make
$l.00, and we believe that if the dis
pensary is to be run at all that it
should handle first class whiskey and
charge good price for it so as to
have good profit.
Those who have to have whiskev
for medicinal or mechanical purposes
can afford to pay good price for
what they need if they get a good
article, and those people, who desire
to use it as a beverage. should be
made to pay for it. for it is then a
luxury and not a necessity.

Is the jamestown Exposition worth

putablc Journals declare with cm-
phasis that it is not. Such state
ment should not be made except af-
ter careful investigation. but if it
be a fact that the incompletcness Of
the Exposition renders it unattrac-
tive as yet to visitors the Exposi-
tion authorities should be foremost in
advising the people to wait until lat
er before visiting what is sure to
be eventually Il large ami most at

fooled into going TO Jamestown. but
few, if any, can be fooled after they
get there and disappointed sight

tisement-News and Courier
We do not know what the condi-
tionS are at jamestown at this time,
but when the exposition opened the
appearance indicated that it would
be at least sixty days before anything
at all would be in shape or in con
dition for visitors. The streets were
not completed and very few of the
buildings were completed, and none of
the exhibits were in shape. The South
Carolina exhibit was nearer compile.

We are Of the opinion that when
the exhibits are in shape and the
grounds and buildings are completed
that it will be probably the best ex-
position that has been held, but at
that time everythin" was in very
incomplete condition. For that rca.
son we have advised that the Press
