If you see tall fellow ahead of a
crowd
A leader of men, marching fearless
and proud,
And you know of tale whose mere
telling aloud
Would cause his proud head to in
anguish be bowed,
It's a pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of a skeleton hidden
away
In a closet, and guarded, and kept
from the day
In the dark; and whose showing,
whose sudden display
Would cause grief and sorrow and
lifelong. dismay,
It's a pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of thing that will dark
en- the joy
Of a man or a woman, a girl or a
boy
That will wipe out a smile, or the
least way annoy
A fellow, or cause any gladness to
cloy,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.

CalOmel Dynamites
A Sluggish Liver
Sick and You Lose a Days
Work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing crampi and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get so cent
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without max
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
It's harmless, pleasant and safe to
give to children; they like it..

Columbia, Oct. 16.-"I will not at
this time make a positive statement,
but there is every probability that
will be in the race for governor next
summer" said w. A. Stuckey, of
Bishopville, today. "There is a senti-

representative of the farmer in the
race for governor. l am, however,
doing nothing to promote that senti-
ment."
Mr.. Stuckey, State senator from
Lee county, is a farmer. He was
graduated from the University of
South Carolina and took a post grad

THE TAX COMMISSION.

The following editorial from The
Abbeville Press and Banner is of gem
eral interest:
In his speech in Greenville, on Sat
urday last, Ex-Governor Cole l..
Blease paid his respect to the Tax
Commission of this State Without
recalling just what he said, and the
manner in which he said it, we agree
with the substance of it. The Tax
Commission has been dead failure
so far, and it is to be hoped that the
next Legislature will have the good
sense to repeal the act
That there are great inequalities
in the assessment of property, and
unjust burdens carried by SOM.
while others in a measure are escap-
ing their share of the taxes, every.
body knows. And we believe that
every thinking man in the State
would like to see the burdens of gov
ernment properly distributed, and
every man carrying his share. For
that reason a great many of us well
coined the passage of the present
law, and looked for good results.
INC Ileil dppOillleu are uIuOuDCeU-
ly men of ability. But all of them
are politicians, and it sees that
they are unable to forget the fact.
Governor Blease says that the acts
of the commission are unjust towards
the corporations. This is fact
which no man can deny. The cor
porations already are bearing their
share of the taxes-some of them at
least are, and especially the banks,
and yet the banks are the first tax
payers to receive the attention of the
Tax Commission. The truth is that
the real estate of the country is the
property which is not bearing it's Just
proportion of the taxes, and the per-
sonal property of individuals is the
property which is bearing practically
none of the burdens.
We do not advocate the raising OF
values on these species of property
and not on the corporations, but we
do advocate the putting of all prop
erty on the tax books on the same
basis of assessment, and that no fav-
ors be shown either the bank or the
individual. Any other system is wrong
in principle and will not be approved
by fair-minded people.
We suggest that if the law is not
repealed, that the next appointees be
men not connected with politics.
There is no place on the tax commits
sion for politics.

progress is being made. A report re-
ceived in my office from the dispen-

the special constables appointed by me
seized and turned over to the dispen-
sary board over $1,000 worth of whis-
key, beer and other intoxicants within
the past four and half months. The
city police during the same period
turned over about $500 worth. During
the same period in 1914 when the
special constables were not working,
the police seized and turned over to
the Gispensary about $700 worth. The
recent convictions in the circuit court
speak for themselves. Yes, am sure

CHAPTER XIV.
An American Girl.

|
The Marquise d'Esclignac saw that
she had to reckon with an American
girl Those who know these girls
know what their temper and mettle
are, and that they are capable of the
finest reverberation.
Julia Redmond was very young.
Otherwise she would never have let
Sabron go without one sign that she
was not Indifferent to him, and that
she was rather bored with the idea
of titles and fortunes. But she adored
her aunt and saw, moreover some
thing else than ribbons and velvets in
the makeup of the aunt. She saw
deeper than the polish that long
Partisan lifetime had overlaid, and
she loved what she saw. She respected
her aunt, and knowing the older ladys
point of view, had been timid and hest
tating until now.
Now the American girl woke up, or
rather asserted herself.
My dear julia" said the Marquise
d'Esclignac, ARE you sure that all the
timed things, the cocoa, and so forth,
are on board? / did not see that box"

her steamer chair, its the only piece

her luggage, and from her own chair

SIMPLE BUT SURE
HyOmei the Great Catarrh Remedy
"Just Breathe IT. and be Cured

Do not try to cure catarrh, head
colds, or snuffles by taking drugs.
These common but dangerous ailments
that often cause the loss of hearing
cannot be cured that way. The com
nonsense method is to breathe Hyo-
mel, which gets the medication right
where it is needed to heal the raw and
inf1amed lining of the air passages.
Hyomei is mixture of antiseptlc
oils-you breathe it-no bother; no
disagreeable medicine; simply use the
inhaler a few times daily and this
health-giving medication will quickly
soothe and heal the irritated tissues,
stop distressing choking and unclean
discharges-you breathe freely-dull
headaches cease and every catarrhal
symptom soon vanishes.
There is nothing more simple and
safe to use, or that gives such rapid
and lasting benefit as Hyomei = and

The women of America, at least, are
faithfully devoted to the sensible and
smart shirt waist. Manufacturers of
these essentials of the wardrobe have
entered the field with models very
close to the original design and
have found them more heartily
appreciated than ever. These waists
are cut with a masculine sever
ity Of line, of the softest and most
supple silks, and finished with hem
stitching and needlework, decorative
buttons and other items of daintiness
in detail that proclaim them as utter.
ly feminine.
Wash silks and crepe de chine are
the favorite materials for shirt waists.
They are cut with high or convertible
collars, which must be provided with
supporting wires if they are to stand
up. Sleeves are long and finished
with cuffs.
The three waists pictured here may
be accepted as correct in style with
out any misgivings. The first one Is
of crepe de chine with hemstitched
seams. The fronts are fulled on to
the narrow yoke. The straight collar

She Was Bored With the Idea of
Titles and Fortunes.

n the shady part of the deck glanced
toward her niece, whose eyes were on
her book.
What a practical girl she is, y
thought the MarQuise d'Esclignac.
'She seems ten years older than /.
She is cut out to be the wife of poor
man 1t is a pity she should have a
fortune. Julia would have been charm
ing as love in a cottage, whereas
She remembered her hotel on the
Pare Monceau, her chateau by the
Rhone, her villa at Biarritz-and
sighed She had not always been the
Marquise d'Esclignac; she had been
an American girl first and remembered
that her maiden name had been De
Puyster and that she had come from
Schenectady originally. But for many
years she had forgotten these things.
Near to Julia Redmond these last few
weeks all but courage and simplicity
had seemed to have tarnish on it's
wings.
SAFFRON had not been found.
1t was a curious fact, and one that
transpires now and then in the history
of desert Wars-the man is lost. The
captain of the cavalry was missing,
and the only news of him was that he
had fallen in an engagement and that
his body had never been recovered.
Several sorties had been made to find
him; the war department had done all
that it could; he had disappeared from
the face of the desert and even his
bones could not be found.
From the moment that Julia Red
mond had confessed her love for the
Frenchman, courage had been born
in her which never faltered, and her
aunt seemed to have been infected by
it. The marquise grew sentimental,
found out that she was more docile and
impressionable than she had believed
herself to be, and the veneer and ETH
quette (no doubt never very real
part of herr became less important
than other things. During the last
few weeks she had been more De
Puyster from Schenectady than the
Marquise d'Esclignac.

did so.

thoughtfully.
Miss Redmond fetched the telegraph
blank and the pad from the table The
color began to return to her cheeks.
She put from her mind the idea that
her aunt had plans for her. All ways
were fair in the present situation.
The Marquise d'Esclignac wrote her
dispatch, very long one, slowly. She
said to her servant:
Call up the Villa des PerroquetS at
Nice wish to speak with the Due de
fremont" She then drew her niece
very gently to her side, looking up at
her as a mother might have looked.
Darling Julia, Monsieur de Sabron

Julia shook her head.

There was a silence, and then Julia

She had been SO thoroughly the
girl that she had thought OF
nothing but going. She threw her
arms around her aunts neck with an
abandon that made the latter young
again. The Marquise d'Esclignac
kissed her niece tenderly.
