A girl writes: Mother had been
suffering with nervous headaches for
seven weary years, but kept drinking
coffee.
One day I asked her why she did
not give up coffee as a cousin Of mine
had done who had taken to Postum.
But Mother was such slave to coffee
she thought It would be terrible to
give it up.
Finally, one day. She made the
change 10 Postum and quickly her
headaches disappeared One morning
while she was drinking Postum so
freely and with such relish asked for
a taste.
THAT started me on Postum and
now drink it more freely than ! did

"A girl friend Of mine. one day, saw
me drinking Postum and asked If It
was coffee. / told her it was Postum

forgot 10 tell her how 10 make It.
'The next day she said she did not
see how could drink Postum. found
she had made Il like ordinary coffee
So ! told her how to make It right

WILLIAM G.. GRAMBREL DEAD.
Well Known Citizen and Business
Man Of Greenwood Dies Very
Suddenly Of Apoplexy.

The State.
Greenwood, April lair. William
q. Gambrcl, a prominent citizen and
business man of this town. died today
at his residence on South Main street
from an attack Of apopleXy.
Few IN town knew Of his illness un-
III late this morning and the news Of
MS death was a great shock. He was
IN his store until about II o'clock,
when he went home feeling unwell.
bnl insisted that he would soon be all
right. Later in the evening, grave
symptoms developed and he grew
worse until the end.
Mr.. Gambrel came to Greenwood
about - years ago and established
the first exclusive hardware store
here. His business grew until now it
is II of the best known concerns of
lis kind anywhere in this section. Ths
store was an incorporated concern
and Mr.. Gambrcl was president.
When the Farmers g. M%erchants'
bank was organized he was elected
It's first president and served in that
capacity for several years, having re-
>i%acd a few years since. Hc was a
member of the board Of directors of
the bank at the time Of his death.
AT different periods. he was a
member Of the city council and a
member Of the board of trustees of
the city schools.
He always took an active interest
in the development Of the town.
Mr.. GAmbrcl was twice married.
His first wife WAS Miss MoCullough
Of the we'll known family Of that
name Of Grcenvillc county. Two chill
dr1n were born Of this marriage
Misses Helen and Mary. They. with

THE TAX LEVY.

We notice that the Greenwood
journal states that the State tax lew
WAS increased two mills. We would
lk" I" remind our contemporary that
the increase was only one mill. It is
enough rs II is. without making il APP
pear more.
The tax levy for the past ten years
Tor State purposes has avrr, rcd five
mills. At the session Of 1907 th.. levy
WAS reduced to four and onr-lialf
mills. but that left Il deficit Of 49,
GOO. This year. instead of reducing
the appropriations, the same c%Xtrava-
giant actions prevailed. ANA the appro-
priati"n bill carries about 500. 900
o than it did in 1907. In view Of
that and Of the deficit il was neccs-
Sary this year t" make the levy five
and onc-halr mills.
While it is true that the levy has
averaged five mills for ten years. it
should be stated that the taxable pro-
pcrtN of the State has increased from
$l10.000, 900 to 100000. 900, and if
the appropriations had not increased
in greater proportion IT would have
been possible to make Il levy OF not
rXcrrdin" three and onc-half mills.
In fact. IL three mill levy this year
would raise rs mucl, money rs Il five
mill levy did ten wears ago.
One of the rca:ons why fac people
d." not return THEW property at ncar-
cr its actual value as required by the
constitution. is that they have not
been able to trust their Legislature. a
history Of legislation for the past ten
years will show that the increase in
appropriations has been in greater
proportion than the increase in the
value Of taxable property. and there
fore II has been impossible to reduce
the levy as taxable values Increased.
If il had moi been for the cxtraor-
binary raise in taxable values Of rail
road property last year the deficit
would have been much greater. The
total increase in taxable values 70,
1907 was about 81 900 900.

mltt2e on ways and means pcrcmp-
torllv declines to grant a hearing to

"Politics' is given with cynical
canior as the excuse for this refusal.
The committee, he tells the publish

any hearings until after the election,
and it will adhere to that determina-
ton.
"The paper trust is cntrenching it.
self more strongly every day, and

but the committee on ways and means

ct that the light Of reason and JUS
ticc will break in upon the commit
tee before such extreme measures b.
come necessary. and to that end it is
hoped the Georgia delegation in con-
"rcSs will brin" all their power and
Influence to bear.
"But if the committee continues
obdurate the Democratic minority
would be al;undantly justified IN pur-
suing the course indicated by Mr.. Will
liams. The need for relief is urgent.
and the cry of politics is but a poor
reply.'
We hope. likewise, that the South
carolina delegation twill bring all
their power and Influence to bear,'
and We desire to commend to their
earnest consideration the above strong
editorial from the Journal.
