Spouse from Governor Hall. who last
night organized a central relief COM
mittee at Baton Rouge and fmme-
diately ordered that $500 cash be sent
to relief workers.
At a meeting of the new committee
last night it was decided to order So
600 worth of seed for distribution in
the stricken territory. Director Dod-
son, OF the state experiment station,
will co-oerate in the seed distribution.
The federal government Is aiding
the planters by the issuing OF circu-
lars giving detailed information con-
corning the planting of emergecy
crops and II Is likely that an appeal
will be made to the national govern
ment for additional seed.
DR.. Mayer Newhauser. who Is as
sisting in lettering conditions in the
Jena district, last night said that stock
feed was needed, but not as badly
needed as rations for the hundreds of
refugees, black and white, scattered
for miles throughout the woods and
swamps of that vicinity. RAtions sent
to this section will not arrive before
Wednesday.

the Daily Christian Advocate, official
publication of the general conference

The reason for their curiosity Az.
pears in a verse which appeared at the

follows:
"A wise old owl lived in an oak;
The more he heard the less he spoke.

Why aren't we all more like that

Many Of the officials of the confer

upon the rental value, in other words,

Worse Men Than Barber.

The case of C. II. Barber hiss excited
much interest and considerable SYM
pathy in this community. Barber's
troubles arose not so much from dis
honesty as from a reckless braVado
and boldness that led him TO take long
chances in the belief that he could "get
away With what he was doing by pure
bluff and effrontery. His motive was
more one OF sport and dare devlltry
than OF desire for gain.
In the case mentioned by q business
man in the Herald today, Barber
promptly returned to him q large
amount of money and checks which
Barber promptly returned to him large
amount OF money and checks which
Barber found and identified by the
name on the checks. This money he
could easily have kept. There was
no fun in that for Barber and he did
not care particularly for the money. Il
was obtaining or withholding money by
other means thatIappealed to the spirit
OF the man and took the form OF Q .
temptation that he could not or did
not resist.
There are worse men than Charlie
Barber who is never in dagger of 60

but they are more prudent and care
full than Barber and never do anything
that will put them within reach OF the
law.-Spartanburg Journal.

HOW 70 QUICKLY
STOP RHEUMATISM
Former Sufferers Tell of Astonishing
Results Following Use OF
New Juice Treatment.

There is no longer need for people
TO sufferer for years from chronic
stubborn, rheumatism, lumbago
lame back, stiff and swollen joints
and muscles. The pain can be stop
ped very quickly, the soren ess reliev
ed, and the swelling reduced by a
short treatment with the new Root
Juice compound.
Mr. C. Hortsman, 1914 W. Jefferson
ST., Fort Wayne, Ind, who made a
test Of the new treatment says: 1.-The
ligaments in my hands were 80 badly
crippled I could not open them. In
fact I was crippled 7 could scarcely
walk. The benefit I derived from the
juice treatment seems almost like a
miracle" Mr.. James Fletcher, Gains.
yille, Ga, suffered eleven years: At
times he could not get ont OF the
house, and spent several hundred dol
lars seeking cure He says, Root
Juice worked like magic. Two bot
ties put me on my feet. The swelling
has almost gone. l ate wei! and
sleep fine"
The Juice seems to exert its strange
curative influence in severe, stubborn
and long standing cases as quickly
and surely as in the mildest ones for
many who report complete cures have
suffered for years and tried every
thing else without results.
Root Juice can now be obtained at
any good drug store. Those who de-
eide to try it, however, are warned
against tricky and dishonest drug
gists who are offering worthless imi-
tations.

We Are Hands-@.

1t is said that there IS in circulation
petitions over the county asking for
an election on the liquor question. On
last Saturday one of these petitions was
circulated in Manning and we were
told that it was numerously signed. It
requires one.third OF the qualified
voters OF the county to sign it before
the supervisor can order the election
and this petition must be fled in his
Office not later than the lst OF May. If
there is the required number upon the
petitions, the supervisor orders the
election in November the same day OF
the general election, and at this elec-
ton the voter is required to exhibit
his registration certificate and his tax
receipt. We know there will be an
effort made by the Prohibitionists to
defeat the re-establishment of the dis
peusary in this county. Naturally those
who were victorious before Go not
want their work undone, but the editor
of this newspaper will have no part or
parcel in bringing on of the elec-
ton, nor does he propose to take an
active interest the other way. He in
tends to let the people decide this
problem for themselves, and then which
ever way it goes, no one will be able
to say that the people were unduly in
nuenced, but their decision was upon
mature deliteration after having given
the prohibition experiment four years
of trial

Bank Checks In Austria.

Banks Of Austria are exempt from
liability for payment Of checks and
bills Of exchange to parties who may
have acquired unlawful possession OF
the same and forged the Endorsements
thereon. The banks are not compelled
to identify the bearer, and instances
occur Of such commercial papers being
stolen and cashed with forged tndorse-
ment, leaving the owner without re-
dress. 4 check or bill Of exchange,
therefore, though payable to order and
not indorsed Is a dangerous form for
the remittance Of money. Liability
for payment on forged Endorsement Is
incurred by q bank only when It Is pre-
sumed to have knowledge Of the
payee's signature, as In the case OF
well known clients.
