The Greenwood Journal says:
Friends OF Ralph Baker will be in
terested in the news that ne has been
offered a contract and has accepted
for a try out with the Richmond team
in the international league the COM
ing season. The deal was made with
MR.. Baker through George Wilson, a
we'll known paper travelling salesman,
whose brother is part owner of the
Richmond club. Mr.. Wilson was given
the privilege of selecting one player
for the team and on his last visit to
Greenwood Ralph was recommended to
him so strong that he at once selected
the Greenwood and Newberry star for
Richmond shortstop.
Young Mr.. Baker has made bril-
liant record at Newberry college, not
only in baseball but in baske ball and
football, during mis- four years there
and his admirers herepredict for
him just as brilliant a career in Or
organized ball. 1t is compliment to his
ability as a player that he has been
offered a contract by HARRISON of the
Columbia team and urged to accept,
but he has decided, with the consent
of mis- father, to try cut in faster COM
pany.
The Richmond Evening Journal
under the heading, "a Sensational
Young College Star will Sign with The
Hikers," published the following:
Ralph Baker, the sensational young
Newberry college football, baseball
and athletic star, will sign Rich

PRAISE FROM MINISTER'S WIFE.

Waynesville, N. C.-Mrs. Joseph Fry,

About 1899, about fifteen years ago,

bad condition, which got worse all the
time. Was so nervous, could not stay
in the room alone for five minutes,

ness was an awful worry to me and
my friends, and 1 couldn't sleep for
four or five nights at time. The
doctors would often have to give me
something to make me sleep.

keep cook.

afterwards I was able to go to cnurcn.

bottles, was able to turn off my cook

Rev. Mr.. Fry writes: "She cannot
praise Cardui too highly. 1t is well

mend it to any lady in poor health.

in the face of such evidence? Give it a
trial. All good druggists sell Cardui.

MAKES CHANGES IN THE
TWO.QUART MEASURE
Grip Containing Nhiskey Won't Have

Columbia, Seb 18.-The free con-
ference report on the tWo-quart-a-
month bill struck out section 10,
which requires a man, if he carries
whiskey in a grip, to paste label on
The outside stating how much whis-
wey the grip contains. The free con-
ference also struck out the word ere
,eive," as the original bill prohibited a
man from giving his friend drink.
The section prohibiting non-residents
from getting whiskey while in this
State was also stricken out The bill
as finally adopted allows each resi-
dent of the State to order two quarts
Of whiskey or five dozen bottles Of beer
per month. As soon as the bill is sign

MAKES GASOLINE ENGINE
Do ALMOST EVERYTHING

will give you a few of my ideas
on how the gasoline engine helps me
and my children, saves my many
times tired feet, and the childrens
steps and labor.
l am the mother of SIX boys and
two girls. Some few years back We
had the misfortune to lose my hus'
band, and when the father is takee
away and the mother has to battle
with the hardships Of life, with eight
babies, well, she will soon learn that
some things have to be done with
steam to be done fast enough. l have
some times washed by the power Of
tie engine, but it's near enough, /
reckon, to be able to do it at the turn
of faucet.
We have our hot and cold water in
the kitchen. Il is piped to the BATH
room, bedrooms, and wash house,
where the washing is done for us nine
in one hour. The water is piped to
the milk house, where we have hot and
cold water at all times. Then on the
barn, where we have three big tanks,
one for the horses and another for
the COWS, and still another for the
hogs. Even though there are nine OF
US we could not draw water and car
ry it; it would take most of our time,
if it were not piped around the place
conveniently. OF course this is what
the windmill does; it pumps the water
and saves our steps and time that
We can put in with the gasoline en-
gine.
/ am but mentioning the great help,
time-saver and money-saver the en-
CINE is in flashing, churning, and sep
arating cream. We attach it to the
binder and it cuts our grain. And the
other day l went out to see how the
boys were coming out putting up their
loose hay that it was about to rain
on. They had the engine at work with
grain separator, and blowing the
hay up in the barn loft. 1t would
have taken some hard work to have
pitched the hay so nigh up, and they
did it in half the time that way. And
We use the engine to the gang plow
to turn our land, and to the harroWs
and disks. We hitch it to the manure
spreader and the moving machines.
Almost any kind of farm implements
that can be used with horses can be
worked with the engine We are not
able to own car yet, but we some
times wish we had an engine h:tched
to the front of our road wagon.
The boys laugh and say, We'll, it's
all in lifel The gasoline engine can't
get tired and We can, so let's work it
hardn-Mrs. W. NJ. McAdams, in The
Progressive Farmer.

FEDERAL PENSIONS FOR
CONFEDERATE VETERANS

| Senator Works of California, a Re-
publican, year or two ago introduc-
ed a bill in congress to have the Unit
ed States government present the SOL
diers' home al Johnson City, Tenn. to
the South and TO maintain it as Con-
federate home The bill was opposed
then by representative of the South,
chiefly by Senator Champ Clark, and
was not pushed.
At the first session Of the 64th con-
gress, Dee. G. 1915. Confederate pen
sion bill was introduced in the house
by Jno. NJ. Tillman of Arkansas, a
Democrat. 1t has been received kind
ly, so far as appearances go; but
there is no way TO tell now what the
result would be if it were brought to
a vote. The text of the bill follows:
'fWhereas, large amount of money
-approximating S100,0O0,OOO, was Sc
cured and collected from the people
of the South during the Civil war and
the Reconstruction pediod that follow
ed, from the following-named sources.
First, from captured and abandoned
property; second, from confscated
property; and, third, from the col
lection CT cotton tax from eighteen
hundred and sixty-three to eighteen
hundred and siXty-eight; and
whereas what is known as the cot
ton tax was illegally collected; and
Whereas the South prior 10 the
Ci,ll war and since that time abund-
antly proved her loyalty to the union,
gameiy lost without murmuring four
million slaves valued at $2,OO0,OOO,-
600, gave 20 the country much in mil
i.ary service. and added much terri
tory through the genics an diplo-
macy of ner statesmen;
Whereas fifty years after the un-
fortunate struggle between the States
there exists only scattered remnant
of the gray chivalry that rarely lost a
battle, many of whom are manned
and unable to work;
Whereas ii is desirable to destroy
the last vestige of sectional feeling
and emphasize the fraternal spirit
that should obtain in happily reunit-
ed country and to permit a generous
I'd jDst government to recompense IN
part the South for her loss not justl-
ued by the Stern demands Of war;
Whereas it is practically impossi-
be to restore the cotton tax illegally
colIated or other property confscated
to the people from whom it was taken
during and after the war; and
Whereas the surviving soldiers OF
the Confederacy are conspicuous and
deserving representatives Of said Sec
ton; therefore
"Be it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the United
States Of America in congress assem-
bled. That upon the passage of this
act there shall be paid to each soldier
who served in the Confederate army
and to each widow of any Confederate
soldier the sum of $500 and that in
addition to this payment such soldiers
and such widows shall be paid quar-
terly the sum of $50 per month each
during the remainder of their lives.
"s2c. .. That this act shall be ad-
ministered by the United States pen
sion office.

visions of this act the sum of $10O,OOO,-

propriated
