NAY MOVE CHICORA COLLEGE.
Laurens Likely to Get Presbyterian
Institution for Girls.

Greenville, July 3.-That Chicora
college will be removed from Green
Vile to the town of Laurens is prac-
tically certain, since the board OF
trustees in annual session last night
adopted report from the ways and
means committee to the effect that
should Laurens provide the college
with an acceptable site and the sum
of $4,000 toward suitable plant,
the removal of the college would be
recommended to the controlling
Presbyteries of the State.
That Laurens will meet the condi-
tions laid down by the trustees is
more than probable. In fact, it was
reliably stated last night that the
conditions will be met in full within
ten days. That the controlling Pres
byeries would adopt the recommended
ton of the board of trustees is also
very likely.

Recognized a Superior.

Il want somebody to show me
where to unload this coal,' said the
grimy looking man at the kitchen
door.
"You needn't ask me about that,
retorted the young woman; II don't
have anything to do with unloading
coal; I'm the kitchen lady"
Il can't help that" he rejoined: Il
am the coal gentleman, and the faith
er of three kitchen ladies', one laun-
dry lady and one chamber lady, and
if you don't show me where to put
this coal I'll call the woman OF the
house."
'I'll show you, SIR" she humbly re-
piled, and led the way to the coal
cellar.-Tit-Bits.

Killed by Train.

Landrum, July 3.-George Gree
ley, who formerly lived in Landrum,
was killed by freight train at Tryon
Monday afternoon. From the infor-
nation given, Mr.. Greeley, who was
. a shoemaker, had just closed his shop
and started for his home walking the
railroad track. A freight which had
passed him was kicked on another
track, ran back and struck him, cut
ting him all to pieces. He was 81
years old and leaves wife and three
children. His funeral was conducted
in the Baptist church here Tuesday
morning by Rev. j. H. Mitchell and
interment followed at the city GENE
terry.

Can You Beat 1t?

Tom McNeal, of Topeka, was talk
ing to Abe Peters about luck, so Tom
reports. Tom thought there was no
such thing as luck, but Abe protest
ed.
Take the case of Ezra Boil" said
Abe. ITO begin with, think Of his
name. A name like that is hard
enough luck to prove my contention,
but Ezra lived up to it. When he
was baby he fell into the horse
trough and was almost drowned.
Then he got hold of can of con-
centrated lye, and it took them four
weeks to bring him round. He fell
out of an apple tree when he was
six and broke both arms and leg,
and just as he was hobbling round
again he went on a watermelon-steal-
ing expedition with six other boys.
The others got away, but the dog
caught, Ezra and chewed him up until
the farmer came along, and he put on
finishing touches with harness
trace. He fell in love when he was
II years old, spent all he had for
buggy rides and candy for the red
checked object Of his adoration-and
she shook him and married another.
A mule kicked him and broke six
ribs. He had lot of hogs, and they
died of cholera on the identical day
when hogs reached nine cents a
pound live weight. He had a big
crop of wheat, and a hailstorm came
along and ruined it one hour after
his hail insurance policy had lapsed.
He got $500 to make payment on
his land, put it in the bank and the
bank busted.
"a cyclone wrecked his house and
barn and crippled all his family ex-
cept his mother-in-law, who escaped
unhurt. He bought four gold bricks
and took some Confederate money in
pay for two good horses.
Then he died. When they were
taking him to the cemetery the team
pulling the hearse ran away going
down hill and scattered the remains
of Ezra along the side of the road.
''In the course of time his family
marked his grave by an appropriate
stone on which the stone cutter got
the date of his birth wrong and mis-
spelled his name in two places.
"And still you say there is no such
thing as luck!'' !''-Saturday Evening
Post.

OBITUARY

Providence has entered unannounc-
ed and has wrought a change in our
midst which no influence can efface.
We cannot understand. Our only re-
course is to trust and not to be afraid
The Providence who gave Martha
Dickson-Gault as a mother to her chill
dren and a wife to her husband and
who SO early recalled her to Himself
will continue to guide through the
way which is now so dark and lonely
The loss suffered by this saddened
family cannot be repaired. No chill
dren ever knew parent who was
richer in motherly wisdom. No hus-
band ever had a more devoted and
sympathetic helper
Martha has left to her children, her
husband, and to all who knew her in
timately a priceless legacy; an ex-
ample of life that for many years
has been scarcely free from pain or
from sense of physical weakness but
the dominant note of which was one
of hope and good cheer. There was
nothing sordid in her composition.
She was satisfied with nothing short
supports for herself and her children.
Such character is a source of
strength. 1t demands our considera-
ton and emulation. In our sorrow we
are grateful for it's example. To it's
kind influence and to the Great Char
acter who made it possible we COM
mend these children and their brave
father, the brothers and sisters and
their aged and only surviving parent,
upon whose infirmity this sorrow falls
with doubled weight.
Martha Avis Dickson-Gault was
born on Sept. II, 1869, in Garfield,
Ohio, and departed on March 81, 1912,
the daughter of Camuel Dickson who
survives in Garfield and Susanna
Ranck of Wayne county, this state,
who died a few months after Martha's
birth. The early part of her life was
spent with the family of her grand
father Mr.. George Ranck, in Wayne
county. On Dec. 10, 1896 she was
united in marriage with George Will
ford Gault, of Mahoning county, Ohio,
and resided in that county for a num-
Der of years. She became a member
of the Presbyterian church in Jackson,
Ohio, at the age of 30 years. After
her removal to Richmond with her
husband and family in December 1904,
she became a member of the Reid
Memorial United Presbyterian church.
She is survived by her husband and
three children: Ralph, aged 10; Mar
jorie, aged 8; and Robert, aged 5; by
her father, Samuel Dickson, who re-
sides in Garfield, Ohio; and the fol-
lowing brothers and sisters. Mrs. w.
A. s. Dickson of this city, G. Alexan-
der Dickson of Lyons Station, Fayette
county, this state; William J. Dickson,
and Roy Dickson of Garfield, Ohio;
Edgar Dickson of Homestead, Penn,
and Mrs. Bert Middagh of Youngstown,
Ohio. One brother, Frederick, is de-
ceased. ....

MoraI-Don't Be a Goat.

The goat while out browsing thought,
lessly stopped and rubbed his head
in the way that goats have-against
the side of the house Of the wolf. Out
rushed the tenant and fiercely upbraid-
ed the hairy butter.
But I'm quite sure" said the latter,
that I've done your house no harm
Besides. saw the elephant stop here
only yesterday and scratch his back
against your dwelling in a way that
almost overturned it And you didn't
say a word TO him. Why should there
be any difference in your treatment OF
us"'
The wolf licked his chops.
There is a marked difference" be
said, even If it is only simple one

Whereupon he fell to and made a
quick and satisfying meal of the un
happy creature.-Cleveland Plain Deal

All over Richmond you hear it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are keeping up the

To Break up Cold
Some Advice That viii


Strong drink and quinine may re-
lieve cold. but 1t usually does more
harm than good.
To break up a hard cold in either
head or chest thousands are using this
sensible treatment
First of all look after your bowels;
II they need attention use any re-
liable, cathartic. Then pour a scant
teaspoonful of HYOMEI into a bowl of
boiling water, cover head and bowl
with towel and breathe for 5 or 10
minutes the pleasant, soothing, heal
ing yapor.
Do this just before going to bed; your
head will feel fine and clear and you'll
awake from a refreshing sleep minus
cold in the morning.
For colds, coughs, catarrh. asthma
and crop HYOMEI is guaranteed. A
fifty cent bottle is all you need to
break up a cold and this can be OBJ
tanned at Leo II. Fines and druggists
everywhere.

Letters Of Maroue.

Letters of marque and reprisal, as
they were called. were first issued in
the time Of Edward l. to give leave to
retaliate beyond the marches or limits
of a country for wrongs suffered at
the hands of power nominally at
peace. In this first instance they were
aimed at Portugal. About 100 years
later two Hanse towns in Mecklenburg,
wishing to relieve their prince, who
was beleaguered in Stockholm, issued
letters of marque-thieves' letters, as
the sufferers called them-to all the
rascals of the Baltic authorizing them
to victual the besieged city. This done,
they turned themselves into confed-
eracy of sea robbers known as Nictual-
ing brothers, or st. Vitalius' brothers,
and rendered the Scandinavian seas
unsafe for half century.
