Prof. ii. "A. Howell, of Havana, Cuba,
Recommends Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy.

GAS long ago as | can remember
my mother was a faithful user and
friend Of Chamberlain Cough Rem

allied its true value until now"
writes Prof. II. A. Howell, OF How
ellis American School, Havana, Gu
ba. "On the night Of February Sd
our baby was taken sick with a Sc
we're cold, the next day was worse
and the following night his condition
was desperate. He could not lie
down, and it was necessary to have
him in the arrns every moment. Even
then his breathing was. difficult. /
did not think he would live until
morning. At last I thought Of my
mothers remedy, aChamberlain's
Cough Remedy, which we gave, and
1t afforded prompt relief, and now,
three days later, ne has fully recov

THE saLE on FERTh.lzER TAas
Receipts Larger this Year Than at
Same Time Last Year.

[. = II I--- : I. 3 :
Columbia, March 1O.--The State
Treasurer is receiving daily several
thousand dollars on the tag tax roy
atty the proceeds of which go to
Clemson college. The tag tax is 25
cents upon each ton OF fertilizer
shipped out, the tax being placed for
the chemical analysis made, by the
authorities of Clemson.
So far this year $117,O17.85 has
been received against $112,7A5.85
for the same time in 1907.
The total receipts tor 1907 amount
ed to $150,984.S1 against $167,-
1889 for 1906, which was the rec
ord year. AS will be seen, the re-
ceipts are largest at this time Of
the year although several thousand
dollars are received in the fall.
Several days within the past two
weeks the receipts have amounted
to over $500 daily.

such condition. A Legislature of
the right kind would not have ex-
acted such a pledge and woulG not
have elected a man who would have
given It.
The election of Mr.. Gary as SEN
ator under these conditions is a
grave injustice to the State. The
people have right to resent It. and
hey do resent Henderson Mail.
Unquestionably the Legislature
should have gone outside to look for
man to flll the vacant seat in the
United States Senate. 1t should have
sought the man and ignored those
squabblers after dead mems shoes.
There are plenty of men In South
Carolina who could have been
chosen for The seat, who would have
graced 1t and done good service for
the State, and yet have been called"
to fill the vacancy instead of being
picked out of crowd of hungry,
wire-pulling politicians.
The Governor should have had the
filing of the vacancy. Unfortunately
he has not that power. Had he had
that Rower he would, we feel sure,
have given the State a short-term
Senator who would have given
greater satisfaction to the whole peo.

Revival Of Darned Net.
BY MONS. GENE DE Pontiac.

BY MONS. GENE DE PONTIAC.
It is far cry from the days when
the silk that would stand alone"
was the ideal, and to-day astiff, rust
ling fabric seems to be non-existnt.
Present-day modes demand the cling
ing, supple weaves that fall In soft
folds and almost drape themselves.
The variety is apparently inexhaust-
ible-chiffon voile. chiffon satin and
marquisette, crepe meteore, liberty
chiffon-these are only very few
Of tho lovely shining fabrics.
Other silks may come and 30, but
toulard Is always with us. This
season 1t is we'll to the fore-chev-
ron-patterned, coin-spotted, with
striking Oriental borders or in
small inconspicuous figures. In the
ubiquitous pongee, the stencil effect
Is the newest thing, and the rough
japanese weaves are the favorites.
4 beautiful new material is silk
cashmere; with all the desirable
qualities of the wooden fabric and
with the lustre of silk, it Grapes de-
lightfully. After many years OF
oblivion, surah is here again, and q
soft, pretty weave it is, as we'll as
an exceedingly serviceable one. One
very smart little costume in which 1t
figured consisted of a gown of white
surah with small black dots, made
jumper-wise, with pleated skirt, lace
yoke and touches of old pink about
the waist, and Black satin, braided,
cut-away coat, lined with the white
and-black surah.
