Here Is Good News
for Stomach Victims

. Some very remarkable results are
being obtained by treating stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles with pure
vegetable oils, which exert cleans
ing, soothing and purifying action
upon the lower bowel, removing the
Instructions of poisonous fecal matter
and gases and preventing their absorp-.
ton by the blood: This done, the food
ia allowed free passage from the stom-
ach, fermentation ceases and stomach
trou bles quickly disappear.
George H. Mayr, for twenty years a
leading Chicago druggist, cured him
self and many of his friends of stom
sch, liver and Intestinal troubles Of
years standing by this treatmsnt, and
so successful was the remedy he de-
vised that it has since been placed IN
the hands of druggists all over the
country, who have sold thousands OF
bottles.
Though absolutely harmless, the ef-
feet OF the medicine Is sufficient to
convince any one of its remarkable
effectiveness, and within "a hours the
sufferer feels like new person

leading druggists everywhere with the
positive understanding that your mon
ey will be refunded without question

FARMERS MEf SATURDAY,
A Large Crowd Attended the Meet
~ ing in the Court House Sat.
hrday.

FERTILIZER and Economy day" was
we'll attended by the farmers anG bus
mess men and quite a number of Wo-
men.
Much interest was shown by those
present in the addresses and discus
sions which came came up. The meet
ing was presided over by County Dem
opstrator, J. E. Cheatham. DR.. R. w.
Alexander, of Williamson, opened
the meeting with a prayer.
Rev. Louis ]. Bristow addressed the
meeting first, his subject being Econ
omy. Mr.. Bristow thought it might
seem strange for a preacher to ad-
wise a farmer, but said that the prac-
tice of economy was good for every
body, preachers as we'll as farmers'
and that they should all look to the
wise and prudent handling of their
affairs and give strict attention to the
essentials Economy, he said, didn't
always mean not spending, but spend
ing where it would count and bring
the most returns.
Mr.. John MCGEE, of Due West, laid
stress on the necessity of the farmer
living at home, that this year has
shown more than ever before that this
lis the only way for the farmer to
make money, think Of what he needs
to live on himself, raise this first and
then for the market. Plant more oats
and corn, raise more stock and re-
duce the cotton acreage to from 5 to
10 acres, per plow.
Mr.. JA Allen Smith, sr., suggested
the reduction of commercial fertilizer,
stated that some commercial fertilizer
was to be used, but where two tons
were used, to use one and put the
cost of the other ton into making com
post at home. ...
He also suggested that the farmer
should not allow so much help from
outside, but do and raise the things
he needed for himself.
Rev. H. B. Blakely, of Lethe Farm
was expecting Clemson to send him
some data on "What Fertilizer to ust
and How Much" but he did not re-
ccive this. However, he told some o
the things he knew. Nothing he sale
would pay better III the long run than
the planting Of peeas, clover anc
vetches, the benefit Of these to the lane
lwere so great you could not figure the
value. He advises the use of veer1
little commercial fertilizer, reduce tht
amount at least so or even 40 pei
cent.
Mr.. S. J. Wakefield, Of Antreville
Thought that money could be saved b!
the farmers buying the ingredients
and mixing their fertilizer at home
Instead of buying them already mixed

aTHE PRINCE OF TONIGHT"

A singing, dancing, musical whirl,
IS the gorgeous musical spectacle
The Prince of Tonight" coming to
the Grand Opera House, next Satur-
lay night, Feb. goth. This long looked
'cr attraction is making its initial
Southern trip and Abbeville is fortu-
nate in being included in this tour.
The cast, chorus and production
will be seen in this city intact, as pre-
sented during it's long stay at the
Princess Theatre, Chicago, where 1t
was the talk of the town for an entire
season. Tom Arnold, the leading COM
edian heads the cast and he is sur
rounded by an excellent company OF
musical comedy stars with a singing,
dancing chorus that is revelation to
the local theatre goer.
Features throughout the entire per-
formance, is a surprise, for it Is the
unexpected that always keeps the au-
dience in good humor. First, the pro-
duction, pleases the eye, voice the ear,
and throughout the evening there is
something different" to hold the au-
ditor so unusual with the average mu-
sical organization.
There are three acts and four scenes
in the gorgeous spectacle, never are
the same scenes used twice, and the
electrical effects are a revelation es-
pecially during the last scene where
the illuminated banquet scene, is one
grand effect of flowers and lights.
Indications point to record house
for this much talked of attraction and
trose desiring choice locations will do
we'll to secure seats early. Sale opens
next Thursday at 9 a. m. at McMur-
rays Drug Store.

MIR. Link Protests.

Our friend, Mr.. s. J. Link, who runs an

as any man in Abbeville, claims that we
have Disseminated against Mr.. Calvert
and himself in mentioning small estab-
lishment like Kerr's furniture store and
saying nothing about the mammoth stocks
of furniture now carried by them. We
are very sorry. Our only excuse is that
we knew their goods were an advertise
ment in themselves, while Kerrs needed
advertisement, having had but little in the
last twelve months. Then both Of these
gentlemen know how to talk about their
wares and themselves, while friend Kerr
is timid and afraid to talk, even at home
At any rate, in order to set the matter
straight, we>say now and are prepared to
stick to it, that Mr.. Link and Mr.. Calvert
both are decidedly in the furniture bust.

their stocks before buying.

This town, for small place, is singular
| ly fortunate this year, as to the number OF
preachers living within her limits. There
are five, four Of whom have regular work
and the fifth is local preacher. Three OF
these have charge of the churches in town,
and the people here are very fortunate In
having such pastors, who are not only so
In name, but in deed. They are genial,
warm-hearted, whole-souled men, giving
to everyone whom they meet the warm,
cordial hand grasp, irrespective Of denom-
linational lines, showing that they are
Christian in heart and life. This Is Ger.
tainly a great blessing, and 1t is believed
that good results will follow.
