WALHALLA, s. c.:
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1913.
THE MILLLON-DOLLAR MARK.

A glance over the five bank state
ments published in this issue will
show that the banking houses repre-
scented by the statements have a COM
bincd deposit business Of $685.
544.l2, while the combined capital,
assets and deposits FOOT up the neat
total of $l,270,33S.63.
A continued observation of these
bank statements will convince any
one that the confidence in u bank
ing institutions is growing, and also
that the realization of the banks use
fulness in the community is becoming
more general. Tho gradual trend is
for increase OF the individual de-
posts in the banks and also an in
crease in the number of depositors.
And t is a healthy sign. The banks
reflect, to a large extent, the pros
perity of the country. We like to
see these great institutions Of the
county grow in financial strength,
and we hope to SEQ the time when
every farmer in Oconee will have his
surplus funds deposited in one of
these banks. The old-time practice
of hiding money about the house is
dangerous and cry inconvenient. If
you are not a depositor in one Of
these five institutions go to the near
est one and have a talk with the
gentlemen in charge. There are hun
drcds OF advantages of the bank de-
post over the hiding practice.

Minister Sentenced to Hang.

Fort Smith, Ark, April 14.-The
Rev. Marion Capps, a Methodist min
lister OF White Bluff, convicted re-
Gently on a charge of burning his two
children, Rose. aged 8, and Priscilla,
aged 2, to death, has been sentenced
to hang here May Goth. Two chill
dren who survived the fire told the
jury their father tied them to an OIL
soaked bed. A third child died from
Injuries sustained in the flames.
The testimony OF the children was
highly sensational and was largely
responsible for the minister's convic-
ton. To save their own lives they
we're forced to fee from the burning
building to the home OF a neighbour,
where they summoned assistance, but
too late to save the lives of the two
children who we're burned outright
and the other who died from burns.

some removals, but he believed that

We have never had the pleasure of
meeting DR.. S. G.. Mitchell, president
OF South Carolina University, who is
TO leave this state to take MP the
presidency Of the Medical College of
Virginia. And yet we feel that we
know him, for a man who does things
and accomplishes great ends is
known far beyond tho circle Of his
acquaintanccs; ana DR.. Mitchell has
done much and accomplished much.
Not only will the University of
South Carolina sustain great loss in
his removal to another institution Of
learning, but South Carolina will lose
heavily in his removal from the
state. We view his resignation as a
distinct misfortune to South Caro-

proximately half million people, It was estimated that the daily re- ceipts of the 10000 places where moving pictures were exhibited az gregated $500,G GOO, while in Greater New York alone some 3OO,0 ,00O people daily were visiting the shows. There were maintained large studios, some of which represented buildings and equipments valued at over $100.000, and in the larger establishments four or five plays a week were being pro- duced for photographic record with al the care and elaboration of a mod ern melodrama. It is obvious, there fore. the moving picture business is entitled to special consideration, involving as it does the use of real estate for exhibition halIs many of which had been specially built, the operation and maintenance of the shows. the manufacture of films and apparatus, and the provision of suit able topics for illustrations by eX- plorations, travel, and mechanical, and other forms of enterprise. From the kinetOscope first exhibited in the form of a sort of peeps show by Thomas A. Edison in 1893 to the pro jection device of Lumiere of Paris
 
 the development and improvement of moving picture machines was rapid and constant MT. Edison received numerous patents, and one of these, granted August l, 1897, was the sub ject of a decision in the United States court of appeals handed down late in 1912, that Edison was not the pioneer inventor of the moving picture ma chimes, but was the inventor of special form of camera used in mak- ing the photographs on such moving films In 1911 as described in the Year Book of that year, the kinema- color process, whereby moving pie lures were reproduced in their origi- nal cOlors with a striking verisimili- tude of nature, marked another ad vance and in 1912 the kinetophone of Edison whereby moving pictures were projected synchronously with the re- production of appropriate sound by the phonograph represented further practical achievement.
 Mention should be made of the use of the moving pictures to reproduce famous current events. Thus in 1912 the Balkan war, the construction of the Panama canal and other impor- tant circumstances were shown wide ly throughout the civilized world, while explorers like Shackleton and hunters like Paul Rainey exhibited moving pictures that aroused compel ling interest in two continents.

There is no lodge in all the list of fraternal orders in the United States that is allowed to outdo the Benevo- lent and Protective Order of Elks in teaching patriotism to it's member ship and to the citizens outside the order with whom it comes in contact. No day in the calendar of celebra- tory days is allowed to pass without the EllIs do something to inculcate greater patriotism by a study of the historical and patriotic happenings on that day. Of all the orders in Ari- cna probably the Elks alone observ- ed Flag Day with public exercises

MODEL FRENCH KITCHENS

From time immemorial it has been conceded that the French nation leads the world in culinary skill and econ omy. In the United States and other countries outside their native land there are many French chefs who command salaries as high as $5000 per annum. Even in France, where the supply is largest and salaries range lower,- their accomplishments are generously compensated. In the individual homes marvellous skill and ingenuity are displayed by house wives in utilizing materials and guarding against waste. These habits Of systematic economy are valuable resource of the nation in times like the present, when the high cost of li1 ing bears hardest on food articles Of daily necessity.
 The kitchen being the theater of this stern and constant struggle of the French housewives to maintain the traditional economies, more than passing interest attaches to the eX-

fish again the prescription for rheu- matism which you gave to Ted some time ago."
 Answer I shall be very glad to repeat the formula. Get at the drug store the following ingredients and mix yourself, taking a teaspoonful at meal times and at bedtime. Iodide of potassium, ? drams; sodium sali- cylate, 4 drams: wine of colchicum, one-half oz.; comp. essence cardioi. oz.; comp. fluid balmwort l oz: and syrup sarsap parilla. ozs. This is my favorite prescription for rheumat tism.
 "CharIotte" writes: Some time ago you answered through your col umns telling Marie" how to cure bad cough and cold. Will you kindly repeat the formula?"
 Answer: I shall be very glad to repeat the formula for you. Get from your druggist a 21a oz pack age of essence mentho- -laXene and mix with honey or home made sugar syrup and take according to direc- 1 tions given on the bottle. This is a very mild laxative and will surely
 cure your cold in a few days at l most, It is absolutely harmless and very pleasant to take.
 Ted" writes T have had chronic appendicitis for some time but I | cannot consent to an operation. My stomach is in a bad condition also.
 Can you help me-"
 Answer: The best scientific and
 satisfactory treatment for you is tab ! lets triopeptine. which you can get
 at any well stocked drug store. They ! are packed in sealed cartons with ] full directions for taking. I think
 many cases of appendicitis could be
 prevented if triopeptine was used regularly.
 Mrs T" writes: T have been ! sick for some time and do not seem ! to be able to get anything to give me strength. I am nervous and cannot sleep. Could you prescribe a ! good tonic?"
 i Answer. The best system and ! nerve tonic I know of is made by mixing , ozs syrup hypophosphites i comp. and 1 oz. tincture cadomene ] not carGamon). Mix by shaking
 well and take a teaspoonful before meals. This is a fine tonic for old i and young.
 Mrs. De V. asks T should like Jo 1 ask You how one can reduce the
 weight. I am too large, and last sum
 mer suffered on account of excessive
 fat. Can you advise a remedy, harm ! less and safe?"
 Answer: I have frequently pre-
 scribed liquid remedy, but, owing
 to it's disagreeabIe taste. I am now prescribing the same formula in q tablet form. It is called 5-grain ar ] bolene tablets and is sold by drug ! g;sts in sealed tubes with full direc- tions for home. use I advise anyone who is too fleshy to try this excel ! lent tablet.
