BY BERNARD SHAW.

Brieuxs Damaged Goods" is a
magnificent piece of work. 1t only
bears out my long standing conten-
ton that Brieux is one of the great
est of aA French dramatists
Take the case of Brieux in Dam
aged Goods" He makes the doctor
lead the villain of the piece through
all the conventional phases of regret,
but when it comes 70 the end he takes
the logical view. He discovers him
self that he would not personally
have felt the due feelings of horror
which he tried to instill in the villain
He would have done just as the viii
lain did But he takes the logical
step of preventing anyone led upon
course of this kind. He wants every
one told, so that this sort of de-
5aucherY and the filthy disease re-
sulting will be eradicated.
1 only hope this play will be al
lowed to be performed publicly The
trouble is we are up against that in
excusable institution the British CEN
sor. We are helpless. 1t is just the
same as when more than twenty years
ago l wrote Mrs. Warren's Profess
sion.'
Censors Banned Play.
There | tried to put an end to. the
system of organized vice What was
the result? I was informed by the
critics, just as in the case of Brieux
that it was mere pamphleteering, a
work, containing no traces of art. The
censor banned it: a self satisfied
ought to say satiated mob
condemned it.
Eighteen months ago a sudden
panic arose in England over the dras-
tie act Parliament passed to end the
white slave traffic" Had my play
been performed freely, / guarantee
that it would not have taken twenty
years to educate the people and also
that they would have been educated
along logical lines. / tried then to
point out what Brieux has done in

of this kind must be fought with the
most efficient weapons at our disposal.

Revival Meeting Closed.

The union revival services that
have been going on here for the past
three weeks, conducted by Rev Ray
mond Browning of Columbia, assist
ed by Mr. j H Chamberlain of Asbu-
ry Park, N J came to close Monday
night. Mr. Browning proved to be a
powerful preacher and endeared
himself to the people of the town
and community. Much interest was
manifested during the last week of
services. At Sunday evenings serv-
ices a thank-offering was taken up,
and the sum of SAILS was donated.
Mr. Browning left for his home at
Columbia Tuesday morning, while
Mr. and Mrs Chamberlain departed
for New Jersey Monday afternoon.
1t is generally believed that good
and enduring work has been done
by these earnest, faithful servants of
the Master.

is never without it in the house.
Mrs Patten says that Syrup Pepsin
has done wonders for her boy Ralph,
who was constipated from birth but
is now doing finely. Naturally she is
enthusiastic about it and wants 9TH
er mothers to use it. DR. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin is sold by druggists at
fifty cents and one dollar bottle,
the latter size being bought by those
who already know its vlaue, and it
contains proportionately more.
Everyone likes Syrup Pepsin, as it
is very pleasant to the taste. It is
also mild and non-griping and free
from injurious ingredients.
Families wishing to try a free
sample bottle can obtain it postpaid
by addressing DR. w B Caldwell, 419
Washington St, Monticello, Ill. A
postal card with your name and ad-
dress on it will do.

Watch Carefully
the Child's Diet.
Start Them OF Right with d Good Laxa,
tive and Then Watch Their Food.

Mothers are often unconsciously
very careless about the diet of their
children, forcing all to eat the same
foods. The fact is that all foods do
not agree alike with different per-
sons. Hence, avoid what seems to
constipate the child or to give it in
digestion, and urge it to take more
of what is quickly digested.
If the child shows tendency to
constipation it should Immediately
be given a mild laxative to help the
bowels. By this is not meant ply
sic or purgative, for these should
never be given to children, nor any
thing like salts, pills, etc. What the
child requires is simply small dose
of the gentlest of medicines, such as
DR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which,
in the opinion of thousands of watch
full mothers, is the ideal remedy for
any child showing a tendency to
constipation. So many things can
happen to a constipated child that
care is necessary. Colds, piles, head
aches, sleeplessness and many other
annoyances that children should not
have can usually be traced to con-
stipation.
Many of Americas foremost fam
lilies are ncvo-. without Syrup Pep
sin, because one can never tell when
some member of the family may
need it, and all can use it. Thou
sands endorse it,among them Mrs M
E Patten, Valley Junction, Iowa, who

Leona Gamble were voted first and
second places, respectively. The
young men who took part in the
contest were: Zeno Montgomery,
McB McFadden, David Epps, Alex
Blakeley and Hayward Brockington.
Although it was remarked by one OF
the Judges that the young men did not
measure up to the high standard OF
excellence set by the young ladies,
it was unanimously conceded that
they all did we'll, displaying GOODNESS
and ability that would we'll reflect
credit upon older and more ad-
yapced students.
Miss Rubie Thorn and Mr. Zeno
Montgomery will for the second
time represent the Kingstree High
school in the oratorical contest be-
tween the schools of the county, at
the annual meet here tonight.
Other literary and field day exercises
will take place tomorrow.

Interesting, II True.

Mr. Morgan ] Rogers, ,Sr, who lives
one mile east of Fork, claims to have
invented a compressed air engine, al
though he will not show it yet to his
most intimate friends. He says it
has already worked successfully. The
feature of the machine is to be self
feeding, that is, the motion of the
engine draws in sufficient air to keep
it going.
Mr. Rogers has been working on
this for about five years and is very
much pleased with his success. Those
who know him as a machinist know
that he is master Of most any part
of machinery, having always worked
machinery from boyhood, and now
operates saw mill near Floydale.
Surely this is going to be the
greatest invention yet ,and it is anus
ing to hear Mr. Rogers talk so conf
IDENTIFY that in a short space of time
he will have stationary engines, To-
comotives, automobiles, etc, running
by compressed air, with no expense
whatever, except a little lubricating
oil.
