Mr.. A. W. Knight, Editor Bamberg
Herald.
Dear Sir:-Please permit me the
use of your columns to express my
thanks and appreciation to my many
friends for their kindness during my
late long illness. In fact, there was
but little they coud do, for the ply
sician prescribed a simple diet for
me, but there were some articles of
nourishment not easily obtained, and
it was then that my friends came
generously to my help, for which |
shall ever be under lasting obliga-
tions. Some called, kindly offering
their services, others dropped in at
different times when was able to re-
ceive them. Their presence was in
deed a great benediction to me, for
among this number I recognized not
few of my former students, and this
class is so close to me, the memory
of whom will never be obliterated as
long as time shall last.
I desire to send word of remem-
brance to Dr.. Cleckley and his as
sistant, who were ever prompt to
come to my help when suffering most
ly, and then also to our faithful min
lister, Rev. w. H. Hodges, whose fire.
ouent visits always brought consoling
comfort to me. Have been here three
weeks. I think / am slowly improv-
ing. Kind regards to all. Yours
sincerely, L. N. BELL1NGER.

HEALTHY LIVER
HEALTHY LIVER
MAKES BEAUTY
Famous Actress Finds that Healthy
Liver is Necessary to Good Looks
and Youthfulness.

One of the best known women Of
the American stage is writing series
of articles on the preservation OF
beauty. She attaches great import
ance to keeping the liver active at all
times, and she is right Neither good
looks nor happiness will stay long
with any man or woman who lets the
liver get lazy and sluggish.
It is not always safe to take calo-
mel, the old liver remedy. Doctors
agree that it is very uncertain
drug. But the Peoples Drug Store
has remedy for sale that they guar
antee to take the place of calomel
absolutely, and still be harmless,
causing no restriction of habit or
diet. This remedy is Dodson's Liver
Tone.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting vegetable liquid, but it starts
the liver gently and surely and re-
lieves constipation and biliousness so
promptly that it has become a de-
pendable remdy in thousands OF
homes in the United States. There
are scores of families in this vicinity
who will not be without it in the
house and who would not think OF
starting on trip without bottle
of it.
Peoples Drug Store has sold so
much Dodson's Liver Tone that they
are convinced of it's merit and will
give any person his SO cents back,
who buys bottle and does not ind
that it takes the place of calomel to

berg Monday, and is packing up and
preparing to move. Mr.. Simmons
was formerly in business here, and

Gov. Blease on Grape Juice.

Columbia, April 27.-"What would
YOU say to the Governor of North
Carolina if he offered you grape
Juice" This was the message a
press service telegraphed Governor
Blease last night. Il would say,
thank you; some grape juice makes
very good wine,' the Governor wired
back. 1t is presumed that this query
arose from the incident of Secretary
of State Bryan's "wineless" dinner,
and the press wanted substitute to
the historic saying of the Governor
of South Carolina to the Governor of
North Carolina, "It's long time be-
tween drinks"

China.

The eyes of the world are now
turned upon China. There is scarce
ly a day that some mention is not
made of her in the daily papers. DR..
c.. F. Reid, in an address on China,
now published in tract form, has
some interesting things to say, from
which the quotations below are made.
DR.. Reid has spent many years in
China and is we'll qualified to speak.
He tells of China's hoary antiquity
she was old when Babylon and Nine
veh were young, of her past great
ness; of great achievements in valor,
in scholarship, in philosophy. For
many years she has been as a man
walking backward with eyes fixed
upon the past.
But now" he adds, "something
new has come to them. 1t is not war.
They have had wars. 1t is not lnVa-
sion. They have had invasions. 1t
is not dynastic difficulties. They have
had all these. 1t is something that is
changing their thought and heart
life. and that something is Jesus
Christ!
Few men have been able to estl-
mate the wide extent and power Of
the impact of Christ and Christian
ideals upon the Chinese. Most of us
have been content to measure it by
the number of converts made, but the
outgoing and ongoing of Christ's
kingdom can never be tabulated.
How often do We forget that to
the puny effort of a feeble man there
may be added the infinite power that
swings solar systems!
"A half dozen good women in the
city of Annoy, heart-burdened with
the thought of Chinas childhood
suffering the tortures of foot-blndlng
.......organized an anti-foot binding
society. A few decades later an i'm
perial edict aboIishes the custom and
fifty million babes are saved from in
tolerable anguish and crippled lives.
"a Presbyterian missionary and
Methodist missionary doctor in the
city of Soochow discuss the awful evil
of a hundred and fifty million people
debauched by opium and decide to
organize an anti-opium society. A
few years later a petition is presented
to the throne signed by one thousand
three hundred and thirty-three mis-
sionaries. A month later, in almost
the identical language of the petition,
an imperial edict is promulgated, pro-
hibiting the habitual use of opium
and making provision for the. aboli-
ton of the traffic
A calendar is printed and sent out
by a mission press and in a little
while Sunday is made legal day OF
rest.
These few facts are presented to
show the origin of some of the mighty
forces that are moving the largest
nation on earth.

Free Lights.

We learned a few days ago that
the commissioners of public works,
at a recent meeting, had voted to
themselves free lights at their resi-
dences, and also free lights to the
secretary of the board. This is new
procedure for the board here. Tie
plant has been in existence for about
eight years, and all those who served
in this capacity heretofore have paid
for their lights just as any other
citizen. There has been consider
able discussion of the matter since
it has become known, and many citi-
zens have expressed themselves as
being opposed to the commissioners
voting themselves free lights.

Child Sat Up in Coffin.

Butte, Cal., April 26.-While men,
bers of the family and relatives
we're grouped about the open coffin
of Mrs. J. R. Burney's three-year-old
son here, listening to the funeral
service, the body moved and present.
ly the child, clad in its shroud, sat up
and gazed about the room. His eyes
caught those of his grandmother,
Mrs. l.. H. Smith, 80 years old. The
aged woman stared at the child as if
she was dazed and then sank into
chair dead. The boy died few hours
later.
