A SURE REMEDY
FOR HORSE CoLIc

Collie in horses is very common dis
order. More valuable horses die every
year from collie than from any other
complaint, simply because they have
not been treated properly. Sloan's
Sure Collie Cure is safe and sure
remedy for the collie or tympanitis. 1t
acts instantly on the stomach and
bowels and gives immediate relief.
Mr.. J. Albert Pahlman, Pocomoke
City. Nd, writes:-"Lasr November
YOUR Fever Remedy saved my Percher-
on Stallion Jumbo He took sick on
the cars the first day out; and on May
Slst Sloan's Sure Collie Cure saved a
fine work mare, but it took five hours
to do it. 1t was very bad case. l
have used it on a great many horses
for others and it always brings the re-
suits"
Dr.. J, E. Neal, of Plymouth, y. c..
writes:-"A gentleman brought me
his horse last Thursday night. He had
the collie proper. l gave him Sloan's
Sure Collie Cure and in three hours
he was all riaht."

Eseaped Convict CAPTURED.

Orangeburg, May13.-Caroline Rich
ardson, colored, about forty years Of
age, copper colored skin, slender
build and pleasing facial expression,
was arrested here this morning by the
mayor and Street Overseer J. 3. Eth
eredge and taken to Columbia by the
mayor.
Richardson il an escaped convict,
having been sent up from Richland
County in 1898 for the murder of ne
gro named Myers. In an interview
with the correspondent Of The News
and Courier. Richardson admitted his
identity and stated that he had escap-
ed with about seven other convicts
from the chaingang guard in Lexing-
ton County in November last, and
made his way direct to this city,
where he has been ever since work
ing under the name of Frank Middle
ton. He said he did not know the
names of those who escaped with him,
neither did be know their wherea-
bouts; that they took other direc-
tions and he has heard nothing of
them since. He says they were shot
at ~ the guard, but none of them
was hit. He found little difficulty in
releasing himself from the shackles
once be was beyond the reach OF
the guard, and then made. his way
here on foot. When asked why he
had risked stopping so close to the
scene Of the crime and among those
who would surely recognize him, he
said his intention was to 60 to Geor.
gia, but, as he had no money, it was
necessary to make some to pay his
expenses.
Dir. Etheredge had had his eye or
the negro for several days, hut was
not in possession Of the proper intor
nation on which to arrest him unit
last night, and he lost no time in tax
ing the fellow i'll this morning. Thi
information came through the peni
| tent!ary authorities at Columbia, ant
also showed that a reward Of $50 is Of
| fered for the capture Of Richardson

70 Get Iid OF Rats.

Farmers who are bothered with rats
should give the following plan as Civ
en in the Farmers Guide, a ti;;al: 1
"Get ten-cent can cf concentrateSE
lye and sprinkle it literally in every
"a. or mouse run possible. Do this
about twice year. Rats, as is well
known, frequent moist places beneath
floors, and their feet are most always
moist. Az soon as they step on the
lye it causes their feet to barn; then
they lick their feet, and there il more
burn; if'they smell Of it there is still
more burn, and they Immediately en-
igrase."
We Cannot vorch for the efficiency
of this remedy, bat it is given il one
Of our exchanges and it looks plausi-
bic, so We are Teeonm ending it for

Lever I, Al1.ight.

TIE Columbia State of Monday, IN
der the heading of "Southern Con-
gressmen and Protection" has
strong editorial comment and criti-
cism of those Southern Representa-
tives who voted for, and are about to
v,te for tariff on lumber, but its
Criticism is more interesting because
of it's implied threat to Congressman
Lever. 1t says: "We are not going
to be quietly delivered by our con-
g,essmen into the camp of the enemy
end the Democrat in either house of
Congress who imagines he is big
enough to deliver the goods, and re-
main in congress, will discover that
he has disastrously overestimated his
size."
Congressman Lever voted for tar
if on lumber, and we have no doubt
he did 80 conscientiously. Tho Den
yer platform, it is true, does not ad-
vocate tariff on lumber, but that
platform was repudiated Ly the Amer
lean people, many of them previously
voted the Democratic ticket. Cor
gresham Lever needs no defense at
our hands for his vote for tariff on
lumber. Hehas given to the people
Of South Carolina long, and conscien-
tious service at Washington. We re-
gard him one of the most, if not the
most active congressman we have,
and too, his work shows practical re-
suits. The threat of The State will
not cause Lever to lose any sleep, nor
will his constituents take him to task
for not tying himself to corpse, the
platform of the National Demccratical
party, put forth at Denver. In our
judgment, the people Of this State are
not sticklers for platform utterances,
what they want is practical results,
and they are getting this from Con-
gresham Lever.-Manning Times.

ONE MILLION DOLLARS
FOR A GOOD STOMACH.
This Offer Should Be Warning
to Every Man and Woman.

The newspapers and medical journals
have had much to say relative to ia
nous millionaire's offer of million
dollars for new stomach.
This great muiti-millionaire was too
busy to worry about the condition of
his stomach. He allowed his dyspepsia
to run from bad to worse until, in the
end, it became incurable. His mis-
fortune should serve as warning to
others. Every one who suffers with
dyspepsia for few years will give
everything he owns for a new stomach.
Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal
state OF the gastric iuices.I There is
one element missing-Pepsin. The abb
sence of this destroys the function of
the gastric fluids, They lose their
power to digest food.
We are now able to supply the pepsin
in form almost identical to that nat
urally created by the system when in
normal health, so that it restores to
the gastric juices their digestive power,
and thus makes the stomach strong and
we'll.
We want every one troubled with
Indigestion and dyspepsia to come
to our store and obtain, box of
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. They con
tain Bismuth- and Pepsin
prepared by process which develops
their greatest power to overcome di-
gestiye disturbance.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are very
pleasant to take. They soothe the irri-
table, weak stomach, strengthen, invig-
crate the digestive organs, relieve nau-
sea and indigestion, promote nutrition
and bring about feeling of comfort.
II you give Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets
reasonable trial, we will return your
money if you are not satisfied with the
result. Three sizes, 25c., Soc and 81.
Remember, you can obtain Rexall
Remedies in Marietta only at our store.

his father, mother, brothers and
sisters.

We miss your sweet face; your
home is so vacant without YOU.
Our hearts are made sad. We
