London, Juno 24.-Business on the

but the tone was generally satisfac-
tory. The Mexican situation had no
apparent effect on Central American
or South American securities, but
made business in American rails
shrink. Gilt-edged securities and CO.
lonial and foreign bonds were steady
and shipping shares closed easy. Con-
soils closed u higher, az 59A; the

GOLD STILL COMING

The end Of the gold movement to
this country from Canada is not yet
in sight. Yesterdays shipment
amounted TO $S.5OO,OO0, bringing the
total deposited by J. 7. Morgan & Co.
az the Assay Office on the present
movement up 20 81 100000.
In addition there has been received
by the Morgan firms agents at Phila-
delphia S20,000,000, of which $4,000
COO was shipped last week. Includ-
ing the gold sent to both New York
and Philadelphia the imports have
row almost reached the Sl00.000.000
mark The explanation for the ship
ments TO the Quaker City was that the
facilities Of the local Assay Office have
already been taxed to capacity, making
IL necessary TO forward some of the
gold elsewhere.

HOW PINEAPPLE JUICE 49,
AND PEPSIN RELIEVES
STOMACH. TROUBLE

The juice of pineapples contains
ferments used by the stomach in the
digestion of food. Pepsin is supplied
by every stomach, but many times in
insufficient quantities. These two
when combined with the other ingre-
dients in Natol Pineapple Pepsin
Compound furnish to the stomach
exactly the right proportion to digest
the food. Strong laxatives are an In
jury and are not needed where the
food is properly digested. -. -.
Natol Pineapple Pepsin Compound
is not a patent medicine but a cor
rective and assistant in overcoming
all stomach troubles. One bottle
(5Oc) is usually enough to give per
manent relief. The McMurray Drug

THE COSTLY EDUCATION OF

"Supervisor R. E. Callahan an
nounces his opposition to the propos'

road building. Not only he knows
that, but the county as a whole knows
it too we'll. For 10! these many
years Sacramento County has paid
out high sums yearly in an endeavor

But this seems rathsf harsh view

members of this church in each sue
ceeding generation, and many of the
descendants are to this day.
The other brothers and sisters
married in this county but none of
them left any family residing in the
county except Richard Price Bowie
and Eli Bowie.
Eli had several children, among
them, James Price Bowie, the father
of H. W. (Doc) Bowie, William B.
Bowie, Henry Bronned Bowie, Asa
Bowie, Hezekiah Bowie, who moved
to McCool, Miss, and Virginia
Bowie, who never married. All of
these children raised large families.
Young Mr.. Bowie had heard of his
kindred these many years from his
grandfather and was anxious to see
them and know something of them,
accordingly he made three days trip
to South Carolina where he was re-
ceived with open arms by his kindred.
They are only sorry that he cannot
stay with them longer. He carries
back to his aged grandfather a mes
sage of love and esteem from all the
kindred in Abbeville county.

THE PERMANENcY OF ROADS

Investing money in the proper 10
cation, grading and drainage Of
roads is about the most permanently
useful expenditure Of public funds
that can be made. Usually court
houses are considered typical Of
such an investment, but well To-
Gated road is serviceable for far
longer period, The court house is
outgrown at the end of a quarter
century; if it continues in use longer
it must be remodeled and the public
officials in it clamor for better quar-
ters. But road laid out on proper
lines and grades serves the public
forever, and on that account its To-
cation should be made by compe-
tent engineer. Furthermore, even
the local roads should be laid out
with the same care, SO that as the
country develops they will improve
with it and not require expensive pur-
chases for new rights-of-way. Fore
sight in such matters will have val
liable results within comparatively
few years in a country growing as
fast as the United States.

The Bowies and Their Kindred

There are two families Of Bowies
in Maryland-the Bowies Of Prince
George County and the Bowies OF
Charles County. The Bowies of Long
Cane Township belong to the latter
family. The progenitor of that fam
ily in America was Abraham Boey.
He came to this country about the
beginning of the eighteenth century,
According to records in Charles
County, Nd, and of Durham Parish
he died in 1852, leaving son, John
Boey, whose name was also spelled
Bowie. Abraham Boey, is buried
at Senah's Delight, Durham Parish,
Charles County, Md. \ His son, John
Bowie, had several sons, some OF
whom were soldiers in the Revolu-
tionary War. One Of his sons was
Rhodi Bowie, who married a Miss
Price, and his wife's father is believ-
ed to have been named Richard Price.
All of the children of Rhodi Bowie
moved to South Carolina about the
beginning of the nineteenth century.
The first one of the Clan to come
was Eli Bowie. He was engaged to
a young lady, Catherine Franklin,
who removed from Maryland to
Stony Point, in Greenwood County,
at about that time. He soon after
wards followed and claimed her as
his bride. He is the immediate an
cestor of all of the Bowies of Long
Cane Township and their Bowie kin
dred, except Of the family of his
brother Richard Price Bowie. He
and, his wife, Catherine Franklin
Bowie, sleep in the old Gilgal GENE
terry near the present church.
Eli Bowie was the founder Of Gil
gal Church in 1917, and was an &C.
tive member of the church as long
as he lived. His children, grand
children and great-grandchildren and

my nerves we're in such bad shape

"Shortness Of breath, which I had

Mr.. Horace H. Bowie of Durant,

Mr.. Horace H. Bowie of Durant,
Miss, was in Abbeille last week Wis
iting kindred. He spent the week in
Long Cane Township with his aunt,
Mrs. Martha Jane Bowie, and his
cousins, George and Brown Bowie,
and other kindred. Mr.. Bowie is a
grandson of John Bowie, who re-
moved from Abbeville County to dc
Cool, Miss, more than fifty years
ago. John Bowie, his grandfather,
who is still living at the age of nine
ty-four years, is a son Of Richard
Price Bowie and his wife Catherine
Hodges, who were married in Able
vile County about 1913. He is a
half brother of Mrs. Martha Jane
Bowie, of Long Cane Township.
He and all of his brothers and sis
ters, except Mrs. Martha Jane Bowie,
have made their home in Mississippi
since they removed there ut the time
stated.
The Bowies are all of Scotch an
cestry. The name is spelled in diff
ferent localities different ways, as
Bue, Buie, Boey, and Bowie. ,. But
it is everywhere pronounced the
same as it is in Abbeville county. Mr..
William w. Bowie of Washington,

book entitled "The Bowies and Their
Kindred" According to him, all Of
the families, including the Canadian
