SICK, SOUR STOAIA CHI.
Move Acids, Gases and Cloggcd-up
Waste from Stomach, Liver,
Bowels-Cure Indigestion.
Get a 10-cent box now.


Ihat awful scurness, belching Of
acld and foul gases; that pain in the
PIT OF the stomach, the heartburn,
nervousness, nausea, bloating after
eating, dizziness and sick headache,
means a disordered stomach, which
cannot be regulated until you remove
the cause. It isn't your stomach's
fault. Your stomach is as good as
any.
Try Cascarets they Immediately
cleanse the stomach, remove the sour,
undigested and fermenting food and
foul gases; take the excess bile from
the liver and carry off the constipated
waste matter and poison from the
bowels. Then your stomach trouble
Is ended. A Cascaret tonight will
straighten you out by morning. 10
cent box from any drug store will
keep your stomach sweet; liver and
bowels regular for months. Don't

PLAN FOR NEW LINK OF ROAD.
Agitators Say IG Is a Feasible Route,
.. and o Cheap One.
(Anderson Mail.)

(Anderson Mail.)
Some agitation has been started in
the sections around Pendleton and
Clemson College in the interest of a
connecting link Of railroad from
Pendleton, by way Of Pendleton and
Clemson College, to Calhoun station,
on the main line Of the Southern.
Several weeks ago a proposition
was made to the Blue Ridge for a
line of railroad between Cherry's and
Calhoun, by way Of the college. but
those who are pushing this later
scheme believe that it Is the better
proposition. The route is but a lit
tie more than II miles and SO nearly
level there will be only mtuimum
amount of grading to be done-a cut
near Eighteen-Mile creek, at the
point where the proposed new line
would leave the Blue Ridge, and a
fill near Clemson College.
Those who have interested them
selves in the proposition believe that
this is the feasible route to provide
closer railroad connection for
Clemson College and for the people
who live along the route between
Eighteen-Mile creek and Calhoun.
They say that, owing to the fact that
the route is practically level, the
cost to construct the link would be
but little more than half the cost of
that proposed from Cherry's to CAL
houn.
No definite proposition Of any kind
looking to the construction of the
link has been made to the Blue
Ridge road, but some of the agita-
tors say that this will be done
shortly.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.

If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary bron-
chitis and pneumonia use cough med
icines that contain codine, morphine,
heroin and other sedatives when you
have cough Or cold. An expecto-
rant like Cham berlain's Cough REM
edy Is what is needed. That cleans
out the culture beds or breeding
places for the germs of pneumonia
and other germ diseases. That is
why pneumonia never results from a
cold when Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is used. 1t has a worldwide
reputation for it's cures. 1t contains
no morphine or other sedative. For

REsCUERS OVERCOME BY GASES,
About 23 Out OF Nearly 800 Survive
Terrific Disaster.

Dawson, n. NJ, Oct. 24.-Crews
from the first government rescue car
to reach here were equipped with
helmets to-day and sent into Stag
Canon Mine No. 2 in search Of James
Lurdi and William Poisa, helmet
men, believed to have been killed by
poisonous gases after an accident
that caused them to remove their
headgear.
The government rescuers started
for the eighteenth chamber east, two
and half miles from the portal. 1t
was at this point that Lurdi and
Poisa, with two companions, were
searching for the body Of General
Superintendent VIM. McDermott and
perhaps at least 100 more miners
who were believed to have been in
that part of the mine when Wednes-
days explosion occurred.
Because of the increasing presence
of carbon dioXide gas in the mine,
which has permeated chambers
where the air was comparatively pure
last night, the governments rescu-
ers, confident that no more men are
alive, have changed their method of
attack and devoted their entire en-
ergies to driving out the poisonous
gases.
The probable death list, including
the two helmet men, was increased
to 263 to-day, and at noon the num-
Der OF men resuced alive remained
at 23.

President Wilson does not
fancy the presence of the lobby
at Washington, and he did not
fail TO let it be known. The rep
resentatives of the many inter
ests whose products will be af-
fected by the Underwood tariff
measure have hocked to the cap
itol to urge the Congressmen to
go slow lest their industries will
be crippled. At every iegisia
tive body in the union it has been
the practice for individuals and
interests to attend the sessions
watching for legislation calcuia-
ted to affect their interests, and
of late years there has been a
great cry against this practice,
mainly by the politicians who
used the argument against the
other side, but how there can be
any prohibition of citizens going
to the lawmakers to present ar
guments for or against legisla-
tion we cannot see, as the consti.
tuition permits the right of peti.
