The name of Carhart is of Saxon
and Danish origin. The first syllable
Is from one of the two Anglo-Saxon
words-"carr," rock, or 'caer,"
town. The last syllable is either from
the Anglo-Saxon heorte, which later
becomes herta, and then heart, or
from the Anglo-Saxon heort, Danish
bert, and English hart, meaning
stag. The name was first Carhurta,
or Carharta, and is first mentioned
in 1920 in the records of the College
Of vHeralds in England. Again, in
1865, there is an official record of the
family; every 80 years in those days
a herald was sent throughout the
length and breadth Of the land to see
If every family bearing arms had the
right to do So. His report says: "The
Carharta family have the right to

ANY WOMAN CAN HAVE BEAUTl
Full HAIR.
(From French Beauty Monthly

(From French Beauty Monthly
mo woman should use water upon
her hair oftener than once il two
months" says M. Fournier. the noted
French scientist. DRY powder only
should be used. Moisture causes the
hair to lose its color and in time be
come thin.
"Any woman desiring abundant, lus-
trous hair should use a dry shampoo
every two or three days Mix four
ounces of powdered orris root with four
ounces of therox. Sprinkle about
tablespoonful of this mixture upon the
head; then brush the powder thor
ough.=r through the hair. This will
keep /: light and fluffy, and beautifully
lustrous. You will soon see new hair
starting to grow. This treatment is the
only thing that am sure will produce
a growth of hair.
While plain orris root is used as a
dry shampoo by many women, still, no
such results can be obtained as by
using the formula have given

MARRIAGE.

A game of chance in which the
chances are about even. The man
leads at first, but after leaving the
altar he usually follows breathlessly
in his wife's trail. The rules are very
confusing. If a masked player holds
you up some night at the end of a
long gun, it is called robbery" and
entities you to telephone the police;
but if your wife holds you up for a
much larger amount the next morn
ing at the end of a long hug, it is
termed diplomacy and counts in her
favor. In this, as in other games of
life, wives are usually allowed more
privileges than other outlaws-Judge.

Conway and Conawaye are perhaps
the only variants of this name. The
derivation is from CON-" a Celtic
word, meaning head or chief, and
IVY" river-Conwy is therefore the
first form of the name. The change
to Conway of Conway was an eu-
phonic one. In North Wales there is
river and town called Conway,
and from this the family probably took
it's name.
Sir Edward Conwaye was knighted
1896, for prowess in Spain, where he
was deputy governor. He was Baron
Conway of Bagley, Warwick, and Wis.,
count Conway of "Conwa Castell," in
Wales.
Sir Edward married Dorathe, heir
ess of Sir John Tracy. Lord Conway
of Ragley was friend of Penn, and
also of Henry More, a platonist, who
spent much of his time at Ragley,
which he called a center of devotion,
and a paradise of peace and piety.
Lady Conway was said to be sister
of the earl Of Nottingham.
Lancaster and Spotssylvania coun-
ties, Virginia, have always been strong
holds of the Conways.
Edwin Conway, or Edwyn Conway,
as he wrote his name, came to Vir-
gfnia 1910, from Worcestershire, Eng
land. Connaway was another way he
spelled his name. He married in Eng
land, Martha Eltonhead of Eltonhead.
His second wife was a sister, or near
relative Of John Carter of the we'll
known Carter family.
Descendants Of this line of Con-
ways have it all their own way, when
seeking admission to patriotic soci-
cites for the family, amongst them,
held every Office within the gift of the
people.
Edwin was the third clerk of North
ampton county, and while he wrote
bad hand, very bad, indeed, sit was
not as bad as Thomas Cooke's"-an-
other clerk. Edwin died in Lancaster
county 1875.
Edwin was a large land owner. His
son Edwin, born 1854, married two
wives-Sara Fleete and Elizabeth
Thompson, and from Edwin and Eliza
beth descend president of the United
States James Madison.
Nellie" Conway-or Eleanor Rose
Conway, as some historians call her,
of the fourth generation, from Ed
win, pilgrim father. and daughter OF
Francis Conway, married when Is
years old, Col. James Madison; their
son was the president. She died at
Montpelier" In 1929.
Martha Thompson, who married
James Taylor, was the mother of
Frances Taylor, who married Ambrose
Madison, grandfather of the president.

DARING FLIGHT.
Trip From New York to Philadelphia
Made in One Hour and 81
Minutes.

New York, June 13.-Char'e K.
Hamilton arose from Governors Is
land in an .aeroplane this morning
and sped, without a break, SO miles
to Philadelphia, in a successful cross
country flight under the auspices of
the New York Times and the Philadel-
phia Public Ledger. He made the
trip in one hour and ffty-one minutes,
leaving Governors Island at 1875 and
landing at Philadelphia at 9.36.
Alighting at the aviation field, he
delivered letters, from Governor
Hughes and Mayor Gaynor, to Gov
ernor Stuart and Mayor Reyburn; &C
cepted messages of congratulation
from them to bear in return, and
started for New York again, with on
ly a brief intermission for food, fuel
and oil. He had flown approximately
20 miles Of his return journey, when
a sluggish motor drove him to de-

Ter was broken there in landing, but
after repairs had been made, Hamil-
ton resumed his flight at $40 and
landed at Governors Island at 6.39.
Thus the return trip was made in one
hour and 36 minutes, at an average
speed of 54.96 miles an hour, which
breaks the record made in the Cur
tiss flight from Albany to New York.
That Hamilton did not make the re-
turn trip as easily as the outgoing
trip was due only to an omission OF
haste. He neglected to clean his
spark plugs; they fouled, the engine
baked and he had to come down on
the banks of the Raritan river, two
miles above South Amboy.

GERMS IN HER SYSTEM.
Every Woman Should Read This Ad-
vice and the Generous Offer
That Goes With 1t.

The number of diseases peculiar to
women is such that W. believe this
space would hardly contain a mere
mention of their names, and it is a
fact that most of these diseases are
of a catarrhal nature. A woman can
not be well if there is q trace of cat
arrh in her system.
Some women think there is no help
for them. We positively declare this
to be a mistaken idea. We are so
sure of this that we offer to supply
medicine absolutely free Of all cost
in every instance where it fails to
give satisfaction, or does not sub
stantiate our claims. With this IN
derstanding, no woman should hest
tate to believe our honesty of pur-
pose, or hesitate to put u claims to
a test.
There is only one way to overcome
catarrh. That way is through the
blood. You may S all the snufs,
douches or like remedies for years
without getting more than temporary
relief at best. Catarrh in general is
a diseased condition of the system
that shows locally most frequently in
discharges from mucous membranes.
Local treatment should be assisted by
internal treatment for the general
diseased condition if a complete cure
is to be reached. That internal treat
ment should be scientifically devised
and faithfully administered.
Rexall Mucu-Tone is scientifically
prepared from the prescription Of an
eminent physician who for thirty
years made catarrh his specially.
This remedy is admirably adapted to
the treatment Of the catarrhal all
ments Of women. 1t puri1es and en-
riches the blood, tends to stop mu-
cous discharges, aids in removing i'm
purities from the system, soothes,
heals and strengthens the mucous
tissues, and brings about a feeling of
health and strength.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our guarantee. If you are not
benefited, or for any reason not salts
fed, simply tell US and We will hand
back our money. Rexall Mucu-Tone
comes in two sizes, so cents and 81.

Remedies in Newberry only at our

Columbia, June 13.-The ~dispensary
sales for six counties of the State for
the month of May were nearly $4,000
less than for the month of April, &C
cording to the monthly report of Dis
pensary Auditor West. The total
sales for the month of May were
$168,474.22. The breakage amounted
to s524.92.
The following is a comparative
statement of the business of the dis
pensaries in six counties of the State
for May and April.

Decided Decreases.

1t will be seer from the above
table that there was a falling off in
the sales in Charleston county of over
$4,000. There was a $4,000 decrease
In Richland and a $4,000 decrease in
Aiken county.
Those acquainted with the situa-
ton in the State are of the opinion
that the decrease in the sales of the
dispensaries has been caused by the
increased shipments by express from
TOWNS outside of the State and the in
crease in the number of illicit deal
ers, or an increase in the business OF
the illicit dealers.
