HOME CURE FOR ECZEMA,
Oh of Wintcrgrecn, Thymol, Giycer'
inc, Etc. Used as Simple Wash.

1t really seems strange that so
many people suffer year In and year
out with eczema, when it is now no
/ longer secret that oil of winter
green mixed with thymol, glycerine,
etc. makes a wash that is bound to
cure.
Old, obstinate cases, it Is true.
cannot be cured in a few days, but
there is absolutely no sufferer from
eczema who ever used this simple
wash and did not find Immediately
that wonderfully soothing, calm, cool
sensation that comes when the Itch
is taken away. Instantly upon apply
ing a few drops of the wash the rem
edy takes effect, the itch Is allayed
There is no need of experiment
the patient knows at once.
Instead of trying to compound the
oil of wintergreen, thymol, glycer-
inc, etc, in the right proportions
ourselves we are using prescription
which is universally found the most
effective. it Is known as the d. ID.
Prescription, or Oil of Wintergreen
Compound. 1t is made by the D. ID.
d. Co, OF Chicago, and our long ex-
perience with this remedy has given
us great confidence in It's merits.

Why Sugar is High.

The tariff puts a tax of nearly two
cents per pound on sugar. Three
fourths of this tax, that everybody
who uses sugar has to pay, goes into
the pockets of the sugar trust, and
the other fourth goes to help run
the government. If it was not for
this enormous tax you could buy all
the sugar you want Tor three cents
per pound. And the labor which
makes the sugar would receive bet
ter wages than is now paid 1t by
the trust. This is one Of the rea-
sons that make us insist on Demo-
cratic Congressman voting on the
side of the people and not on the
side of the trusts.

low grade pianos under the. guisc

money than they ought.
The leading piano manufacturers
will have an exhibit of their pro-
ducts at this convention, making it
convenient for each dealer to post
himself as to the merits and de-
merits of every make Of piano.

The second series Of stock, con-
tanning 1929 shares, in the Home
Building and Loan Association Of
this city were retired last week, they
having run six years. A meeting
of the board of directors were held
on last Thursday, at which time the
report Of the treasurer showed that
the shares had paid a dividend of
about eight per cent. Each share
was retired at $SS.01.
At this meeting the same board
of directors, composed of Messrs.
I. w. Bowman, w. L. Glaze, W. l..
Moseley, H. C. Wannamaker, DR..
T. C. Doyle and DR.. D. D. salley,
were reelected for the next year.
The next series of stock will be
issued in the next few weeks and
already there lare many applica-
tions for shares on file. It is ex-
pected that this series will be about
the largest in the history of the
Association. On the next series the
shares will run seven years, as six
years do not quite repay the loans
of 500, which are taken out with

COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE
WIZ Have Strong Department Of Mu-
sic Next Year.

The Orangeburg Collegiate Insti-
tue will have during the coming sea-
son an especially strong department
Of music. Every possible plan will
be carried out to insure students
of music the best of training. Mr.
Harold A. Loring, of Portland, Me-,
has been engaged fOi Doctor Of Mu-
sic. Mr.. Loring needs no intro
duction to the people of this sec
ton, as his work is we'll known, he
having been director 0f music at
Limestone College for two years,
where he was very successful in his
line of work. Mr.. LOring's early
training was under the guidance of
Willard Carroll Kimball, who is one
Of the best known teachers in Bos-
ton. After eight years study with
Mr.. Kimball, he entered the Faelten
Pianoforte school of Boston where
he received several years special
training and coaching under Carl
Reinhold Faelten.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Carl Faelten was for many years the
Doctor of the famous New England
Conservatory of Music. During his
study in Boston, Mr.. Loring appear
ed as concert pianist several time
before critical Boston audience, and
has since played throughout the
West, and parts of New England and
the South He has taught at sew
eral institutions of higher learning,
among them Whitman College in the
State of Washington, Howe College
in Indiana, one of the best known
Conservatives in Illinois, and as
stated above at Limestone College,
Gaffney, S. C.
Several years ago Mr.. Loring re-
ceived from the secretary of the
interior an appointment to visit the
various tribes of Indians in the West
for the purpose of studying their
native songs and folklore for the
purpose Of preserving such themes
as proved worthy of perpetuating.
For many months he lived among
the Indians, and acquired the Ian
guage of the Sioux, which he speaks
fuently. From his experience with
the Indians, he has written several
lectures which. have met with great
success.
These have been delivered in many
States, and the press has been en-
thusiastic in their comments. 1t is
most unique subject, and one OF
Americas best lecture bureaus has
communicated with Mr.. Loring in
an effort to induce him to go on q
tour under it's management deliver
ing his lecture on THE Native Music
of the Indian" which Is extremely
popular, and which he illustrates on
the piano. This lecture will be heard
in Orangeburg during the early part
of the fall.
1t is expected that the o. c. T..
will have one of the very best music
Departments In the State the coming
session, and students will receive su-
perior instruction in piano. voice,
theory, harmony and history Of
music. A faculty recital will be
given soon after the opening Of the
session, introducing the new mem
bers Of the faculty, and 1t is expected
that several well known musical at
fractions will be booked for the sea-
son. Mr.. Loring has left for New
York, and the North, where he will
be for some time, and will spend
part of the summer in working
for the College.
