The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there Is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages,
and that is catarrh, Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity Ca
tarrh being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter-
nally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of
the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the consti-
tuition and assisting nature in doing
it's work. The proprietors have so
much faith in it's curative powers
that they offer one hundred dollars
for any case that it fails to cure.

stipation.

London, Dec. 27-Four new words
are added to the English language
every day, if the dictionaries may be
accepted as a standard of measure
ment. During the last three centu-
ries the rate of growth of the die
tionaries has been 1900 words a
year.
In 1916 John Bullokar, the first
English photographer, published his
"Compleat English Dictionary" with
$3.50 words. During the later nine
teenth century the Imperial Diction-
ary" was issued with 100000 words,
and the Century Dictionary" with a
still larger number, followed in 1894
by Dr.. Isaac Funk's STANDARD Die
tionary" containing $4,000. There
have been several editions of this,
but the one soon to appear will
eclipse them all. This will contain
words.

December 10th, 1913.

The Auditors office will be open
to receive returns of real and per-
sonal property for taxation from the
1st day of January, 1914, to the 10th
day of February, inclusive.
The Real Estate-Lots and Build
ings- are to be assessed this year.
Taxpayers will be careful to list ex-
actly the number Of acres, number of
lots and number of buildings on their
returns, as the assessment made now
will stand for the next four years.
The Township Assessors are re-
quired by law to list for all those
who fail to make their own returns
within the. time required by law.
Hence the difficulty of delinquents
escaping the so per cent penalty, as
well as the frequency Of errors re-
sulting from this practice. BY all
means make your own returns and
thereby save expense and confusion.
All able-bodied men, 81 to 60
years of age. are taxable polls.
Please don't neglect returning
your dogs.

the Auditor, or his deputies, will re-
ceive returns at the following times

THE NEW TYPE OF SCHOOL.
There is One Mt RidgevilIe-R. A.
Gentry is the Principal.
News and Courier Special.

Summerville, Dec. 22.-In the re-
port Of prizes awarded to rural
schools by the South Carolina School
Improvement Association, an error
occurred in giving the name of the
principal of Ridgeville school, Dor
chester county-the school having
the highest score. AS this distinction
is due in a very large measure to the
enthusiastic leadership and personal
efforts of the principal. r. A. Gentry,
it seems only right that this correc-
ton be made.
Through the enterprise of the
trustees ana patrons of this school
bonds were issued and $4,000
building, on approved plans, was
erected. A fine building alone, how
ever, does not make good school.
The country school of to-day which
meets with approval is the one
which, in addition to the regular
course Of study, trains boys and girls
to be good citizens. To this end Mr..
Gentry and his assistants are striv-
ing.
In connection with this new school
is the Teachers Home" which is
fast becoming an important factor in
the life Of this community. Here
the principal and his wife, with the
assistant teachers, are making real
home; here the boys bring their
tools, and under the kind instruction
Of Mr.. Gentry, do a little manual
work; here the boys and girls meet
to sing and practice for school en-
tertainments, and here. the guest is
sure Of a warm welcome and gener-
GUS hospitality. Such a home" and
school are blessing to any commu-
nifty.
