Some Rabbit

The jack rabbits had "a lively time
last Sunday in this vicinity. Three
automobiles, with ten noted MIN
rods, invaded the habitat of these
four r-footed inhabitants of the desert.
Before reaching the happy hunting
ground these sure shot boys left their
autos, aud taking positions 100 yards
apart advanced upon their expected
victims. Shooting was lively as the
hunters advanced towrad the lake,
and the cartridge makers are not
Kicking over it. When the ten
shooters met at the lake to compare
notes, it was found that Johnny
Miller, Charley Box and brother Bill
each bagged eleven bunnies, while
Harvey Miller produced ten. From
THAT they ranged down to six for the
bw gun. The party came home with
/ 81 birds
! This little incursion into the do
main of the rapid rabbit was the
cause of heated discussion among
cur local shotgun experts. The
aforesaid discussion resulted III q

About Halloween.

Halloween night comes on the
31st Of October. Around this night
mas always clustered a wealth of
superstition, and in every age and
country we find 1t strangely set apart
for special Observance. On this night
the old Egyptians worshipped with
blazing torch and altar-fire, and held
1t sacred to their dead. Far back of
the Christian era this last night of
October was celebrated by the Celts
and their priests, the Druids, as a
harvest festival. On this night, lust
as the sun entirely disappeared, they
started bon fires on every hill in Eng
land and Ireland, so that the wan
dering souls OF their dead might find
the way to the other world. After
the Christian era the festival took on
a new meaning, and was dedicated to
all saints and called "the evening be-
fore holy mass" or "all hallows
en-" soon shortened to halloween"
No other night of all the year has
SO many and such strange customs
On this night the air is filled with
witches, fairies and disembodied
spirits; they yield to the power of
charms and divinations, and he who
has faith may look into the future
and be forwarned Of any coming
event.

ATLANTA SPECIAL"
New Train to be Inaugurated on
Southern Railway.

washington, Nov. 1.-On Sunday.
November 18th, a new train between
New York and Atlanta, to be known
as the Atlanta Special" is to be in
augurated by the Southern Railway.
This new train will be operated on
the present schedule OF the New
York, Atlanta, and New Orleans
Limited" which will be changed SO
as to run later in both directions.
Both trains will be high class in
every respect with dining and club
cars and handling only Pullman
equipment.
With the Inauguration Of the
Atlanta Special" there will be four
high class through trains daily in
each direction between Atlanta and
New York over the Southern Rail-
way, five between Charlotte and New
York, and seven between Lynchburg
and New York, thus affording splen-
did accommodations for travel be-
tween the states Of the Southeast and
the great Eastern cities. The new
service is being established to take
care of the heavy business between
the Southeast and the East and to
provide for the expected increase of
trans-continental business through
the southeastern territory. On the
same date that the Atlantic Special
makes its first trip, new train will
be put on between New Orleans and
San Francisco which will reduce the
time to the Pacific coast by thirty
hours and the management of the
Southern Railway has taken advant-
age of the opportunity thus offered
to turn as large a volume Of trans
continental travel as possible through
the southeast and ut the same time
give improved service for the terri
tory directly on its lines.

ALL CLOGGED UP?
HERE'S QUICK RELIEF
"A Simple Remedy to Correct Consti-
patton Before it Becomes
Chronic

Very few people go through life
without some time or other being
troubled with constipation. Thou
sands in1ure themselves by the use
OF strong cathartics, salts, mineral
waters, pills and similar things. They
nave temporary value in some cases.
IL Is true, but the good effect is soon
lost, and the more one takes of them
the less effective they become.
phystc or purgative is seldom
necessary, and much better and more
permanent results can be obtained
by using scientific remedy like DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. 1t does not
hide behind a high sounding name,
but is what it is represented to be, a
mid laxative medicine. 1t Is so
mild that thousands of mothers give
1t to tiny infants, and yet it Is so
compounded, and contains such
definite ingredients that it will have
equally good effect when used by a
person suffering from the worst
chronic constipation. In fact, among
the greatest endorsers Of Syrup
Pepsin are elderly people who have
suffered for years and found nothing
to benefit them until they took
Syrup Pepsin.
1t is fact that millions OF fam
lilies have DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
constantly in the house, homes like
those of Mr.. II. w. Fenstermaker.
Slegtrted, Pa. He says he has had
wonderful results from the use of
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, that. in
tact, he has never md a remedy so
god' and he is glad recommend it..

INTEREST INCREASING.
Red Cross Seal Commission to Have
Booth at State Fair.

DoOth EotdJS
Columbia, Nov. 1.-The work of
the Red Cross Seal Commission is
progressing rapidly and successfully.
The magnitude Of the undertaking
may be seen from the size Of the or
der for seals and advertising ma
terial which the American National
Red Cross has just shipped to the
commissions headquarters at Co
lumbia. The order consists OF 1000
advertising cards, 10000 envelopes,
10000 blotters, and 100000 Christ
mas Seals. The active selling sea-
son for the seals is from Thanks
giving to Christmas. During the
next month this great mass Of ma
terial will be shipped out to the many
public-spirited men and women
throughout the state who have con-
sented to act as agents. AS evidence
or the wide interest and the hearty
spirit OF cooperation the movement
is meeting on all sides, may be cited
the fact that the Southern Express
Company through Vice President
Loop has agreed to handle the COM
missions shipments free Of charge.
The Commission is planning to estab-
lish booth at the State Fair, SO
that visitors from all parts Of South
Carolina may become acquainted
with the aims and methods of the
crusade against tuberculosis.
