AN EASY WAY TO REDUCE FLESH
Brink Hot Water and Take Tassco
Hon. F. H. Dominick,
Newberry, S. G.
Dear Mr.. Dominick:

Haven't you often wished for medl-
cine to reduce yoru flesh? Something
that doeh not require dieting or cal
isthenics? Well, right here you nave
it in 5-graiE tassco tablets, which you
may secure at Newberry Drug co.
They are pleasant to take, perfectly
harmless and cause no restrictions OF
habit or eating, and reduce the flesh,
little by little, until you are down 70
the number of pounds you wish TO
weigh Too mucn flesh is undesirable,
as most quiet stout people will readi-
IL admit, and it detracts from ones
aeoearance; makes one clumsy ana
short Of breath.
,,sybera isn't any reason Why anyone
ahouId be too stout, when there's this
marh-tried, perfectly satisfactory re-
ueAv at NewherYy Drug Co. Taseco

Newbery's Hospitality.
.irenWoOd Journal.

irenWOOd journal.
We have just returned from the
State Baptist convention which was
in session in Newberry for several
days. and while there were many
things to impress the visitor there
vas nothing more in evidence than
lie genuine warm hearted hospitality
Of the people. Every delegate was
eady to declare that he had the bes.
home in the city. The welcome ad-
lress s were most cordial and full Of
GOOD cheer. The home like feeling
hich the delegates had added very
much to the meeting. Newberry's
Hospitality gave the convention a
good send eff and kept it going to
the end, rounding up one of the very
best conventions that the Baptists Of
South Carolina have had in years.
4 convention in which more aggres-
eive work was done and larger plans
laid for the future than ever b fore
in it's recent history. We shall not
soon forget the hearty welcome aDd
the unstinted hospitality of Dr. and
Mrs. W. E. Pelham accorded Colonel
Watson and the writer during the
days that We were in their home
They are ideal hosts.
But Newberry has more than hos
pitality. 1t is good business center
with many beautiful homes, good ho-
tells, and a we'll kept city. Besides,
it is the home of Newberry college
which is big asset. While in the
city we took occasion to call upon
The Observer and The Herald and
News. I'VE found Editor Wallace
pounding his typewriter in rush to
get to pr So not mindful of the
high cost of paper as he as copying
from his files to save clipping an ex-
ira copy. Editor Aull was also up
against it, as he too, was on the eve
of getting to press. These men with
their papers have done much to make
.Newtberry and are doing far more
than many of the best citizens of this
goodly town are aware of. 1t Is a
genuine pleasure to meet among old
Newberry friends, DR.. Jas McIn-
tosh, R. Y. Leavell and Col. W. H.
Hunt. The latter whose health has
not been good for sometime seems TO
be improving.

LITERARY PRUDES.
Greenville News.

NEWS.
A new writer has shunted off the
press a volume on slipshod English.
"He brands as guilty of this offence
many of the greatest masters of style
-Aruold, Ruskin, Newman, Lowell,
Burroughs and Wilson. Wonder
he didn't lambast Shakespeare as an
assassin of the language.
Isn't it amusing? The very idea
of some little whippersnapper is hav-
ing the impudence to find fault with
work of these literary lapidaries.
Here is another linguistic prude,
who can't be. forgotten because he
never has been and never will be
known, yet he assumes to pick immor-
tails to pieces. He is brother to some
of the professors who have written
books instructing youth how to be-
come trained newspaper men in twen-
ty hours.
II you want to offend real news
paper man, call him Journalist" :"
That word is strictly taboo in the
Fourth Estate. why? Because the
newspaperman and the jouanrlist are
distinct species. They have nothing
in common. a ncWspeperman aries
to write straight English, without
affectation, without erudition, under
standable stuff for the average man,
with red corpuscles in it; a journalist
tries to write like Henry James and
Ralph Wuldo Emerson strictly ac-
cording to the Hoyle of the college
rhetoric texa, with mechanical pre-
cision, with all life and color edited
out. A Journalist is "higthbroW.' y
Usage is the supreme law of language
to the newspaperman. That is why
he uses the agot Of the street, the
slang of the time. The newseper-
man writes for remocracy; the jour
nalist writes for what he thinks is an
intellectual aristocracy, although 1t is
usually thre quarters bluff and super
ficiality.
Every newspaperman tries to write
English correctly, but he will sacri-
flee life for lifeless precision. II he
is college bred, he soon finds that
usage sanctions much that he thought
incorrect. He comes to attach more
value to simplicity and to good old
English words that are clear and 30
strong.
