NATHANIEL PYLES.


He lived in the Mt. Bethel section,
and was confirmed old bachelor. He
was strang man in his ways. He
would not take drink of water out
of your water gourd, or eat meal at
your table. These peculiarities run in
the Pyles family. He had still house
at his spring, and made white corn
whiskey all his life; and his hand
made sweet water liquor was consid-
cred a wholesome drink. The kind
you could drink for years without
burning out your stomach. He also
cultivated small farm. One one oc-
casion, he pulled down his fodder, and
in the evening when it was ready to
tie up the thunder clouds made their
appearance in the west He made for
the field and got few bundles tied
before the rain caught him. He jump
ed uE on stump with a bundle of fod-
Ger in his hand which he shook at the
cloud saying, Rain hell rain that is
a nice way to do man good, rain
to make it and another one to spoil
it, say rain hell, rain"
He made his corn whiskey, drank it
when he felt like it; made his little
crops, until old age took him off the
stage of action: w. ID. S.

Lets get up and get it!
Some weeks ago we had occasion
to give little "boost" in this column
to the moving picture house and for
1t we were twitted by several county
papers in the state, suggesting to us
that editorial subjects must have been
scarce around Laurens. We are going
to brave the elements" again by sug-
gesting cordial support of our opera
house when attractions of such worth
as "Graustark" are played in it. While
we do not attempt to pose as z critic
OF the stage, we do know that tho play
Friday night was unusually we'll acted
as compared to other plays that have
heretofore been here. While we do
not urge anyone to attend the shows
here when they do not wish to do so.
we do make the suggestion that when
an attraction of we'll known merit is
billed for Laurens, that those people
who are fond of the opera and good
acting make it point to attend. Very
often our people, while in Columbia
and other cities, would feel like they
had not enjoyed the full benefits of
their trip unless they had attended the
shows, while if the very same company
should play in Laurens they would
not go out to see it. Now, if our peo-
pie here would like to have the first
class companies come here, they
should show by their patronage that
they desire it. or course there are
many companies which cannot afford
to come to Laurens at all, but there
are many other good ones that would
come if the people would go out to see
them. True the players work under
diiliculties here, but this is overlook
ed if the door receipts are good.

A GREAT DISCOVERY.
Certain Ingredients that Really Pro-
mot Hair Growth when Properly
InmI Iinnd

Resorcin is one of the most effec-
tive germ destroyers ever discovered
by scicnc, and in connection with Beta
Napthol, which is both germicidal
and antiseptic, combination is form
ed which destroys the germs which rob
the hair of its natural nouriShment
and also creates a clean. healthy CON
dition of the scalp, which prevents
the development of new germs.
Pilocarpin, although not coloring
matter or dye is well known ingre-
dient for restoring the hair to it's
natural color, when the loss of hair
has been caused by a disease of the
scalp.
These ingredients in proper combi-
nation, with alcohol added as a slim
ulent and for it's well-defined nourish-
ing properties, perfect perhaps the
most effective remedy that is known
for scalp and hair troubles.
We have a remedy which is chiefly
composed of these ingredients, in COM
bination with other extremely inval-
liable medical agents. We guarantee
1t to positively cure dandruff, and to
grow hair, even though the scalp in
spots is bare of hair. If there is any
vitality left in the roots, it will posi-
lively cure badness, or we will refund
your money. If the scalp has a glazed
shiny appearance, it's an indication
that badness is permanent but in 9TH
er instances we believe badness is
curaole.
We want every one truobled, with
scalp disease or loss of hair to try
ReXall "93" Hair Tonic. If it does not
cure dandruff and grow hair to the
satisfaction of the user, we will with
out question or quibble return every
cent paid up for it. We print this
guarantee on every bottle. 1t has eff
fected a positive cure in 93 per cent
of cases where put to a practical test.
ReXall "93" Hair Tonic is entirely
unlike, and we think in every partic-
ular better than anything else we
know of for the purpose for which it
is prescribed We urge you to try this
preparation at our entire risk. Ger
tainly we know of no better guarantee
to give you. Remember, you can OBJ
tain ReXall Remedies in Laurens only
at our store-The ReXall Store. The
Laurens Drug Co., y03 Main street.

The Governors Defender!

We hear that there is soon to be
change of management of the Bel
ton Times and the the former edi-
tor S. B. Marshall may return. This
will again bring up for discussion the
famous "Belton incident" We never
thought there was much use for ex-
ploitation of that matter. A govern
or's record is assailable or commend
able for it's morals rather than for
his manners. Gov. Blease may have
been peevish, just as some of his
critics are, no doubt, in urging tele-
phone girls to speed the connections.
but he denies being insulting. We
think Editor Willis was made a
goat in this matter. He has de-
MED that he grabbed at n prospec-
tive sensation, but published the
matter upon request. No, we think
the Bolton incident itself was given
too umch hurrah, if the young lady
herself did not feel insuted, but
Is it not significant that "the peo-
pies governor" denouncer of corpo-
rations and upholder against their
encroachments, should be so quick
ly defended i'm this matter by the
corporation that is the biggest tax
payer" and therefore greatest priv
ilege owner in the state, the South

WORK OF LOVING HANDS.

In another column of this paper are
described in some detail the improve
ments brought about in Laurens Gem
etery during the past year by the earn

dies who constitute the Executive
Committee Few people realize how
extensive these improvements have
been; and surely no one can begin
to appreciate the change without per-
sonally visiting the place and seeing
for ones self.
Where lately there was nothing but
signs of desolation and desecration.
now there is every evidence of care
and orderliness. Where weeds and

are growing on every side; and all
around there are signs of constant.

COCAINE AGAIN.

Citizen" in his contribution to The
Advertiser today thinks that the edi-
tor of this paper has been mislead by
the enemies of temperance into be-
lieVing that the use OF cocaine is TAX
ing the place of the use Of liquor in
Laurens county since the dispensary
has been taken out. Citizen" also
says that he is informed by physicians
over the county that the use of cocaine
is not spreading as fast as some have
said it is. While we would be glad
to admit that we were misinformed
as to the extent of the use of cocaine
III this county, if we knew that we
were wrong, still the source of our
information was of such character as
to lead us still to believe that the
use of the drug is on the increase.
That the enemies of temperance are
attempting to lead others to believe
that cocaine selling is the result of
the restriction of the sale of whiskey
we are not able to vouch for. "Citi-
zen says that they are trying to do
so and we have enough faith in what
he says to believe it, But as for us,
our information came from other
sources.
IT, however, the use of cocaine is
taking the place of the use of whiskey
the thing to do is to treat the cocaine
traffic like we have treated the whis-
key traffic Stop it too.
Citizen" makes some reference to
the editorial in The State about the
editorial of The Advertiser. The State
says that 1T would be going too far
to say that the abolition of the one is
responsible for the prosperity of the
other To us it seems that it is
going too far to suggest, even though
family, that the sale of cocaine is
prospering as result of the abolition
of the whiskey traffic. The State
should realize that such q suggestion
would be quickly seized upon by the
enemies of temperance as an .argu-
ment for the sale of whiskey. 1t is
hardly probable that the sale of eth
cr has had any effect on the other.

The Whiskey and Cocaine Trades.

Reports come from all over the
county says the Laurens Advertiser
in an editorial article, that the
negroes are using cocaine and, in
fact, some say that it is actually taxi
ing the place of whiskey. 1t is said,
also that whenever user of it is
asked where 1t comes from it is stated
that 1T comes from Laurens." Not
long ago white man of some promi-
nence was arrested, tried and con-
victed of selling cocaine in Laurens.
Elsewhere, The Advertiser, in the
same issue, inquiries: Suppose that
we had had dispensary or saloon
here during the county fair, would
the crowd have been so orderly and
would the day have been so pleasant
for the ladies and children presentY p
1t is clear that the people of Lau-
rens who rejoice that the county is
free of the whiskey traffic are con-
fronted with the task of suppressing
the cocaine traffic. 1t would be going
too far to say that the abolition OF
the one is responsible for the pros
perity of the other, but "the ladies
and children" are not safe so long
as the cocaine habit is coming among
the negroes.-The State.

WHO IL to Rlnmrl

a tragedy was enacted in Union
county last Saturday about dark which
was one of the saddest affairs in the
history of the county. From every
standpoint it was Il deplorable affair.
y strong man, under the influence of
whiskey was shot to death by his broth
er-in-law. We do not undertake to
discuss the legal aspect of the killing.
But this thought does come up: Who
sold the unfortunate man the whis-
key? 1t must have been sold to him
by some Illicit dealer To be a law
breaker is bad enough. But to sell
for gain that which brings death and
sorrow is q thing that every true man
should scorn to do. 1t is a pity that
every blind tiger in Union county
could not have been brought face to
face with the fearful calamity. 1t
would have melted a heart of stone.
If the whiskey drinkers could be made
to face these things it would put a
stop to the evil, surely. A dead man,
a broken-hearted wife and little chill
dren bereft of father and breadwinner.
1t is sight to make even the hardest
hearted man to shudder. Whiskey was
just as surely the cause of the tragedy
as there is any certainty in the world.
And the man who sold it to the un-
fortunate victim is, in the eye of God,
