Mrs. SaIIie GiIsnap.

Mrs. Sallie Gilstrap died at.
the home Of her son, Robert
Gilstrap. Of this section, last
Wednesday morning. She lived
to a very advanced age and
had been in declining health for
some time, although her death
was very sudden. About one

home Of her daughter, Mrs.
Gravley, of Pickens county, to
be with her son in her last days.
In early life she was married to
a Mr.. Alexander, and to them
were born two or three children.
Later on in life, after his death,
she was again married, her
second husband being a Mr..
Gilstrap, who also preceded
her to the grave. To that union
was born one. son, Robert L.
Gilstrap, who survives them.
On the day following her death
her body was laid to rest in the
Coneross cemetery by The side
Of her last husband, who died
several years ago. We extend
to the bereaved relatives our
sympathy in their sore bereave-
ment.

Although Indigestion and dys-
pepsia are so prevalent, most
people Go not understand their
cause and cure. There is no rea-
son why most people should not
eat anything they desire-if
they will only chew it carefully
and thoroughly. Many actually
starve themselves into sickness
through fear of eating many
good-looking, goodzsInell and
good-tasting dishes sdsg 5SeY

The best thing to do is to fit
yourself to digest any good food
We believe we can relieve dys
pepsia. We are so confident of
this fact that we guarantee and

Frank Grandy of Greenville.
Mr.. W. NJ. Hagood. President
of the Glenwood mill spent the
entire day in Greenville letting
the contracts for the building

started Immediately.
The Glenwood mill was or
ganized in 1902, and under good
management made splendid
progress from the beginning.
Shortly after starting the mill

dividend, which was later in
creased to ten percent.
The addition is being built by
issuing 40 per cent stock diyi-
dend to the present stockholders

taking the remaining number
of shares at par value. The
present capital stock is s240, 900

In greater or less degree, the in

felt in every community in the
country. Though rivals in
spiritual matters, they are in &C
cord upon many subjects of
mrt,1al interest notably upOn
that of socialism, which recent
statistics show to be making
heavy strides in the body poll
tic.
To big business, socialism
stands for disintegration and
is incompatible with the re-
ceipts of religion. Hence the
Morgan religion is twofold in its
object:
First, to check the growth of
socialism, which Big Business
regards as the most dangerous
foe of socia! ard POLITICAL order,
second, to bring back into the
fold the great mass of the peo-
pie who of late years have been
steadily drifting away from the
influence of the churches.
The first condition being con-
sidered the direct result of the
second, the sponsors of the
Morgan movement propose to
get to its primary cause. Re
ligion is to be made popular as
