A railroad conductor who was
found half-demented in San Francisco
yesterday, says that his condition is
due to the fusilade 70 complaints,
comments. and foolish questions to
which he was exposed by party of
tourists from Kansas to the coast
Among our many charitable organ
izations, the need is here indicated
for society for the prevention of
cruelty to conductors. Doubtless Il
every tourist should appoint himself
a committee of one to refrain from,
Fostering" the train officials. 1t
would be first step in 8 good cause,
deeply appreciated by those who are
fearful of losing their reason.

We seek mail order advertisers who are arx-
ious for way to reduce their selling costs.
We seek general advertisers who want to
and ways to get more results for their money.
We seek the wise men-the good business
men-the men who want actual proofs.
We win tell these men how, with absolute
certainty, to pick out the agent who can outsen
the rest.
We appeal for good business methods in adj
vertising- such as you apply outside.
Employ salesmen-in- print on just the same
basis as you employ salesmen-in-person.
Accept no improved boasts Sign con-
tracts Put it up to the men to make good
That is the only way to place men on their
nettle-to keep them at constant white heat
Cling to them as long as no other men can
outsell them But always leave room to give
the better man show.
Advertising has not been largely done on
that basis
The advertising agent has demanded con-
tract. binding the advertiser for from one to
three years.
The contract was blindly made-made before
the agent had started to show results.

We Seek the Advertisers
Who Want Light

Then, if the agent fell down, the advertise,
found himself tied to failure. There wa,
nothing to do but quit.
We have abandoned contracts.
No client Of ours binds himself to remain
with us. None states how much he will spend
We abide by results,
If any agent can prove the power to outsell
US, our client is free to go.
But we urge the demanding Of actual proofs
Any agent who can outsell another can prove
it beyond any question.
He can prove it without asking you for any
commitment. He can prove it, if you wish.
while most of your advertising still goes
through other channels.
We shall welcome the time when advertisers
in general awake to this fact, and employ it.
There is a way to prove if your advertising
can bring better results than now.
There is a way to know if any agent can out
sell the one you employ.
The way is easy, and the result sometimes
has proved to be worth a fortune.
If you are interested. simply write US:
please explain the way"

Looking For Minerals and Hunting Fol-
Good Waters.

DR.. George T. Lee Of Georgia, was in
town Saturday, Sunday and Monday the
guest of Prof. Huguelet and Sheriff Lyon.
DR.. Lee has been making neurological
examinations and chemical analyses OF the
water of some of our springs, among
others that of Little Mountain, which will
be given careful attention. Swifts Lythia
water at Elb9rton was discovered through
DR.. Lees agency. Quite a lot OF fine
specimens of gold are in Abbeville county
are to be sent off for assays.
The owners of Powders Springs in the
Flatwoods in this county might find it ad-
vantageous to them to address a letter to
DR.. Lee at Abbeville, in care of Professor
Huguelet or Sheriff Lyon.
There is a great future in the mining
business, which may be developed near
Abbeville in a very short time.

The b6tTbR's QUESTION.
Some Advice Against the Use OF Harsh
%.Purgaiiyes and Physics.

A doctors first question when consulted
by a patient is, "Arc your bowels regular"
He knows that 9S per cent of illneSSfis at
tended with inactive bowels and torpid
liver. This condition pOiSOnS the system
with waste matter and causes accumula-
ton of gases which must be removed
through the bowels before health can be
restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics may
be truly likened to dynamite. Through
their harsh, irritating action they force O
passage through the bowels, causing pain
and damage to the delicate intestinal
structure which weakenS the whole sys-
tenn, and ut best only produces temporary
relief. The repeated use OF such treat
ments causes chronic irritation OF the
stomach and bowels, dries and hardens
their tissues, deadens their nerves, stiflens
their muscles and generally brings about
an injurious habit which sometimes has
almost, if not fatal results.
We have n pleasant and safe remedy for
constipation and bowel disorders in gen.
eral. We are sc certain OF it's great cura-
tive value that we promise to return the
purchasers money III every case where 1t
fails to produce entire satisfaction. This
remedy is called ReXall Orderlies. We urge
you to try them at our entire risk.
ReXall Orlcrlies are eaten like candy,
they act quickly and have a soothing,
strengthening, healing, regulative influ-
ence on the entire intestinal tract. They
do not purge, grippe, cause nausea, flatu-
lence, excessive lOOSeneSS, diarrhpa or
other annoying effects, and they may be
taken at any time without Inconvenience.
Rexall Orderlies overcome the dragging
habit and safely remedy constipation and
associate ailments, whether acute or chron-
ic, except in surgical cases. They are espe-
cially good for children, weak persons or
old folks. Price, Sc tablets rs cents, and -
tablets 10 cents. Remember you can OBJ
tain Rexall Remedies in Abbeville only at

That Grain INSPECTOR.

In q few more months preparations
will begin to be made for another crop.
Rotton corn killed so mules in Abbeville
county last year. The same will happen
again the coming year if conditions re-
main unchanged;
I'm the course OF time we will make our
own grain, but cannot do that next year,
and some law should be enacted looking
to Our protection and the protection OF
our stock from the effects Of damaged
grain.
Until we have some sort Of regulation
We may expect our state to be a dumpind
ground. Those who have damaged corn
are going to dispose Of it If they can, and
they can dispose Oft here with impunity.
It might be wise to create the office OF
Inspector, Of food-stuffs Of all kinds. If
shippers outside the State were aware
that we were protected by inspectors, the
merchants would not be imposed on with
shipments OF damaged goods to the ex-
tent that they are now.
The merchant would be only too glad to
see such q law. It would protect him. as
well as the consumer.
Nature has 80 provided it that any
people whether in the the tropics or IN
polar regions may find their food just at
their feet, SO to speak, and that people
will manage best who realize this fact and
take advantage Of 1t.
The food that grows best in Mexico is
best adapted to the Mexican; the blubber
and the fat and the oil Of the boreal re-
gions Is best suited to the people of that
climate; fruits and the grain indigenous
to the tropics were put there by the
Almighty to feed the people there. In no
less degree, the corn Of South Carolina,
the small grain Of our own state, it's fruits,
its melons, ect., are best for us who live
here.
Our place in the nation is assured as
soon as we begin to make it our purpose
first to make a living and then to make
cotton. When we do this we will strike
CONSERVATION into the visage Of the north
and west.
When the west finds that We do not need
their rotton corn and the north finds that
we do not have to give them a lien to buy
this rotton corn with there will be a pa
mic, but it will not be in the cotton states
New York lends the bulk Of her money
south, nobody else needs it. AS soon as
we stop buying rotton corn and bad flour
out west we will cease to need it, for that
is the only use we have forit.
Until then, however, we need some one
to look otter the stuff we must buy-to see
