~ UPID is in a quandary these days
y with all the advice that has
been given about Mistresses and
Maids. Sometimes he is tempted-and
does advise his clients-to take the lit
tie Maid in preference to the daughter
of the house, who lords it over the
shrinking girl who waits on her.
Cupid knows the Maid is better ma
tured than her Mistress and is every
way more desirable for a life partner
and away down deep in his heart he
often wonders why it is that more men,
when they come a-wooing the spoiled
little lady of the house, do not turn TO
the girl who waits so demurely-and
carries and fetches, and serves and
vanishes-just as her naughty, I'M
thinking Mistress bids her.
And here's little bit of advice Cupid
gives to many who go accounting the
daughter of some proud house-"Ob-
serve the little Maid who waits on your
lady love-and think to yourself if the
Maid would not make a better Mistress
of your heart and home"

HAVE YOU SOMETHING
TO SELF 80 - - -.

If so, do you tell the public
about it? If you do, how do .
you do it?
And what sort of reputation
is back of the merchandise you
are offering?
The answers to these ques-
tions may spell success or fail
ure to many merchant.
From an intimate association
with a wide circle of concerns,
merchandising all the neces-
saries of life, we venture to say:
s'The quickest and surest way
to reach the public is through
the columns of a dependable
daily newspaper like The Times
Recorder-one that has high
standing in the community it
serves, and has the confidence
of it's readers.
The most dependable articles
sold today are those to which
the manufacturer is not afraid
to attach his label--that is to
say, his reputation.
Retail merchants are now
joining hands with the manu-
facturer, and the public is thus
doubly guaranteed against in
feriority.
THE combination of manu-
facturer and retailer plus good,
clean newspaper advertising,
means success to them both,
with the maximum of satisfac
ton to the purchaser.

'WILLFUL' MURDER is
VERDICT OF Tiff JURY
No Recommendation Given in
Case Of |. B. Hall


case against l. B. Hall, charged with
murder, after being out six hours, re-
turned a verdict at 500 this afternoon
of willful murder, without a recon-
mendation. Judge Thomas will pro-
nounce sentence tomorrow morning az
10 o'clock.
Argument of counsel was concluded
this morning and after the judges
charge the case went to the jury 1t
11:43. Mr. Hall is from Laurens coua-
ty and is prominently connected there
as well as in this county.
History of the Case
l. B. Hall shot and killed Dennis W.
Hall few minutes before o'clock on
the afternoon of May 10 last. The two
men were of the same name but no re
lation to each other. I. B. Hall hal
moved to Florida some time before the
killing, and his wife had rented three
rooms of the house they occupied to
Dennis w. Hall, retaining two dooms
in which they had some furniture stor-
ed. They only remained in Florida a
few weeks and on their return asked
Dennis Hall to vacate the rooms.
This he refused to do, saying that
he had rented them for a year. The
two families lived in the same house
for several weeks and quarrels were
frequent. I. B. Hall took legal steps
to eject Dennis and Dennis finally ar.
ranged to move out on Monday follow
ing the Saturday on which he was
killed. Saturday about l o'clock the
two men had dispute and Dennis
Hall went up town. On his return,
while he was sitting on the banister O.
the porch, l. B. Hall shot him and he
died a few minutes later.
The case was taken up when super-
Tor court convened Wednesday morn
ing, and four panels of jurors were
exhausted in getting a jury, the fifth
man on the fifth panel making the
requisite number.
Taking of testimony began at 1915
m. and was concluded at Abs p. m,
when argument of counsel began Each
side was allowed three hours, the de
Tense having the opening and conclus-
ion as they submitted no evidence
Six witnesses were examined for the
state, but the defendants counsel re-
lied on his own statement in which ha
went into all of the details OF the
quarrel, and claimed that he acted in
self defense. He said that Dennis Hall
had frequently threatened him and
that when he shot him he thought he
was preparing to draw a weapon.

more than $1,000.
