Negro Lynched at Laurens.

Laurens, Aug. 10.-Disregarding the
declaration of the solicitor that q
speedy trial would be given, mob
of 1000 men tonight at 1890 O'Clock
lynched Richard Pickett, a young

After overpowering the sheriff and
his deputies the mob broke down two

where he was strung up to a beam.
Several hundred shots we're fred into
his body. The mob then dispersed.
At midnight many were arriving III
town from all sections of the Pied
mont. Just before he was killed the
negro denied his guilt. Sheriff John

WHY NOT GET
4 GUARANTEE?
Every Article of Merit that is
Sold These Days is Guar
anteed-No Guarantee
Often Means Poor
Quality.

There is very little excuse for any
person to claim that he has been
''stung'' on a purchase. Fifty years
ago the buyer had to look out, but to-
dav it is unusual to find a merchant
who will not return the money for any
article that has proved unsatisfactory
An excellent example of this kind OF
fair dealing is shown by the cieancut
guarantee that The Harmon Drug Co..
gives On Dodson's Liver Tone.
These people tell Us that any person
who pays 5Oc for bottle of Dodson's 5
Liver Tone and does not find it a
gentle and most pleasant liver tonic,
harmless, but sure reliever Of con-
stipation and perfect substitute for
calomel, can get his money back just
as quick as they can get it out of the
money drawer.
Dodson's Liver Tone has practically
taken the place of calomel. 1t is ab'
solutely harmless, sure in its action
and causes no restriction of habit or
diet. No wonder the drug people are
glad to guarantee it, while other RENE
dies that initiate the claims of Dodson g
Liver Tone are not guaranteed at all.

Paint?

There are two good reasons for paint
ing often-enough Or even too-often.
One, to look prosperous; two, to be So.
Nothing does one more credit or gives
one more credit than paint, supple
mented of course by what goes with it; !;
and paint costs nothing.
True, the first cost is IS or S6 a gal
lon put-on; but it saves more than that
in the property; saves it from slow
eoing-down-not always slow-it drops
with a jump when water gets in on
wood and iron.
Dry wood and iron cost nothing, kept
dry by paint.
Better paint when it needs it. Paint
never goes-down in the sense Of being
more profitable next year.

Memory of Elton Harmon.

written by his chum and co-worker.)
God in His infinite wisdom has seen
fit to take from our midst another
loved one-one who embodied every
trait that might be found in an honest,
upright, conscientious man; one who
commanded the respect, held the love
and deserved the praise Of those who
knew him; one who invariably con-
sidered the welfare of his fellow.man
as we'll as bis own daily walk of life.
Elton Harmon was born in Lexing-
ton County, 8. c., in 1898; came to
his brother in Texas in 1910, and on
June 25, 1918, was called upon to pay
homage to his Creator whose will we
dare not question.
We thank God for his Revelation
shat we might find consolation in:
80 God above Thy will be done,
We love and praise Thee ever more,
But when our task on earth is done,
We pray to meet him on Thy shore.
Wepray that Tnou will give US strength
To always hold Thy Cross above
Temptations strong that beckon Us
From Thy sweet path of peace and love
And tho at times tits hard to bear.
We pray that from our lips will come
Those sanity words from Heaven fair
"Oh, God above, Thy will be done. y
Though we can see him no more
in daily life, we are thankful for the
power of remembrance that we might
picture him in our own mind as we
recall the days gone by.
We bow our heads in tears in hum
BILE recognition of His supremity. May
His healing hand be forever in touch
with the bereaved ones.-Shiro TEX

GRAND TRUNK DENIES PACT
Agreement with New Haven
Only Proposed, Says Railway.

Montreal. Feb. 5.-An official statement
issued to-day at the Offices Of the Grand
Trunk Railway declares that there never
has been any traffic agreement between
the Grand Trunk and the New York,
New Haven d Hartford Railroad, but
admits that there was a proposed agree
mcnt." The statement says that the
Providence extension of the Central Yer
mont Railroad has not been finally aban-
doned, and points out that the Providence
line has nothing 10 do with the proposed
extension of the Central Vermont TO Bos-
ton. The statement follows:
The Providence extension is a Central
Vermont matter and is entirely in the
hands Of Nice-President G.. g. Jones. Of
St. Adams. The statements published
from Providence 10 the effect that the
Providence extension of the Central Yer
mont had not been abandoned and. II
