Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that
Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the
sense of smell and completely deranse
the whole system when entering IL
through the mucous surfaces. Such
articles should never be used except
on prescriptions from reputable ply
sicians, as the damage they will do is
ten fold to the good you a possibly
derive from them. Halls Catarrah
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, o., contains no mercury,
and is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the system. In buying Halls Catarrh

The Most Common Cause of Suffering

Rheumatism causes more pain and
suffering than any other disease, for
the reason that it is the most common
of all ills, and it is certainly gratifying
to sufferers to knew that Chamber
lain's Pain Balm will afford relief, and
make rest and sleep possible. In many
cases the relief from pain, which is at
first Temporary, has become perma-
nent, while in old people subject to
chronic rheumatism, often brought on
by dampness or changes in the wealth
er, a permanent cure can not be ex-
pected; the relief from the pain which
this liniment affords is alone worth
many times its cost. % and SO cent

the country is being rapidly settled up,
1t will soon become necessary to buibl
a school house. and under the head of
special tax, the amount required VIII
appear.
The Maynard school was running
during January, February and March,
with Miss Luella Patrick as eacner
There was an enrolment of five pu.
pills, and a daily average of five.
The fish hatchery pupils have been
brought into the Laramie schools as
heretofore, the transportation being
furnished by the district. This has
proven to be a wise provision, the pu.
pills going into the various grades and
doing excellent work.
The Compulsory Law.
The compulsory law, passed by the
last legislature, has been productive
of much good, and the board wishes
to express its thanks to the officers
who have aided in securing the attend
ance of the juvenile ~delinquents. Not
alone has it been a benefit to the de-
linquents, but it has had a good effect
upon those who might otherwise play
truant.
School days are now made much
pleasanter for the pupils than in the
days when reading, writing and arith-
metic' were taught to the tune of a
hickory stick"
Library.
The board has very gratifying re-
ports upon the use of the school IL
brary by the pupils. This is as 1t
should be, as it shows that an interest
is being taken by the pupils in good
books that go to build up the mind.
Repairs.
The school buildings are in good re-
pair, but there should be a good wide
cement walk laid from the street to
the entrance of the East Side school.
The window frames of the East Side
school should be painted.
The new school building is nearing
completion, with the exception of the
two rooms on the upper floor, which
were not included in the contract.
In order to carry out the plans for
the high school as outlined above,
these two rooms should be finished,
and a heating plant installed. An es.
innate for this additional work ap
pears in the list of appropriations ask.
ed for.
Will Pay for Building.
The contract price of the new build,
ing, including the additions, was SILL.
lSS7.55, and the amount paid was S.
leaving a balance of $3,245.
This will complete the payment of the
building, and the district will have a
new, up-to-date school house, all paid
for, and no bonded Indebtedness as
far as that building is concerned.
Amount Asked for.
The board is asking for 1850 more
than was asked for last year. This is
accounted for by the following items,
which it would necessary to PRO,
vide for, viz, completing the two
rooms Of the upper story of the new
building; installing a heating plant;
also furnishing up the two rooms; sup
plies, and employing an extra teacher
and an extra ~janitor.

ment, I would refer to the report OF

as will be necessary. the 5000 being
covered back into the treasury, was
voted and appropriated.

ton, stating that not less than ten
children would patronize the proposed
school, he being willing, he stated, to
donate a site for the building.

action upon this matter was referred
to the board of trustees.

1t having been established before

From letter heads Of both con

Distilling Company and the Bclair
Distilling Company, all Of which got
sucincss from the d~ispcnsary. and all
OF which according to Mr.. Fielder, be-

was shown that Goodman in 1908
had put in a bid as president of tho
Commonwealth Company, though in
his recent testimony he said he left
the Commonwealth Company before
that year. The old dispcnsary law
prohibited II concern putting in
more than bid.

moned Mr.. Parker to appear and he
in substance the conversation
with Mr.. Lanahan, but when pressed
by Mr.. Lyon to give the name OF the
politician he declined to
so. AS Mr.. Parker challenged the
power OF the committe to make him
answer, n case on habcas corpus pro-
cccdings was brought in the Supreme
Court and the Court decided that
the committee had the authority to
require Mr.. Parker to answer its
questions. But the committee decid-
ed not to exert its authority and Mr..
Parker did not answer the question.

however. that the suppressed name
OF the alleged agent Of Lanahan was
that OF Senator Bleasc, and this
knowledge evidently reached Senator
Blcase himself, as he tool the pre-
caution to get an affidavit from Lam
ahan, and it is fortunate that he did,
since Mr.. Ianahan died about two
weeks ago. The commission to wind
up the State ~dispcnsary had already
summoned Mr.. Lanahan.
When they testified Thursday Mr..
Parker and Capt Smyth made it plain
that they did SO unwillingly and on
ly yielded to the recognized authority
OF the commission, which has the
same authority as the Legislative
committee as decided by the Supreme
Court.
1t is not worth while to say who
Mcssrs. Parker and Smyth are; they
are the leading two cotton mill men
in South Carolina, and their char
actors and regulations need no bols-
