Tonight

PALACE.
One of the most remarkable flm
stories ever produced by the Vita
graph company, and but recently COM
pleted by George D. Baker. 10 entitled
"A Price for Folly" 1T the Palace
tonight, is one Of the most powerfully
dramatic Blue Ribbon features. When
Mr.. Baker first received the manu-
script, he had instructions to produce
1t in one part of a thousand feet, with
thirty-five scenes. No less than three
people lost their lives in the original
short story.
LYRIC.
One of the great laws of life is that
the good shall be in constant conflict
with the evil If it were otherwise
the evil would predominant and the
walls OF the house of civilization would
topple over on US and end in our ex-
termination. In the Gold Seal three
reel drama, "The reward of Chivalry,"
at the Lyric tonight, with Herbert
Rawlinson, we have this great con-
hict faithfully shown.
The Lyric is also showing the sixth
installment of the thrilling Graft Sc.
rial, which was suggested by the we'll.
known novelist. James Oppenheim,
and was written by Hugh c. Weir and
Joe Brandt. 1t exceeds in excitement
all the previous episodes which have
already established record for NOV
Ing picture serials. This episode tells
= gripping story Of the attempt Of
corrupt railway magnates.

Hints by Thrifty Men.


If you wish your children to be thrifty,
would beg of you to impress upon them the crimi-
nality of waste
Thrift is the surest and the strongest founda-
ton of an empire-so sure, so strong and so nec-
essary that no great empire can long exist and
disregard it.
Lord Rosebury.
The thrifty maxim Of the wary Dutch is to
save all the money they can touch.
Industry, Perseverance and Frugality make
Fortune yield.
Light Gains, heavy Purses
AS Pride increases, Fortune declines.
Beware of little Expenses; small leak will
sink great ship.
/. Alight purse is heavy curse.
No gains without pains.
Necessity never made good bargain.
If you know how to spend less than you get
you have the philosophers stone.
Diligence is the mother of good luck.
God helps them that help themselves.
Buy what thou hast no need of, and e'er long
thou shalt sell thy necessities.
Rather go to bed supperless than run in debt
for breakfast.
An empty bag cannot stand upright.
Be always ashamed to catch thyself idle.
Poor Richards Almanack.

The Habit OF Taking Cold.

With many people taking cold Is a
habit, but fortunately one that is east
ly broken. Take cold sponge bath
every morning when you first get out
of bcd-not ice cold, but temperature
of about 80 degrees f. Also sleep with
your window up. Do this and you will
seldom take cold. When you do take
cold take Chambcrlain's Cough Rene
dy and get rid OF 1t as quickly as pos

TIDWELL'S WHEREABOUTS
ARE UNKNOWN
Has Not Returned to Begin his Seven
YenrS, Senfoncn


Years. Sentence.
Groenville, Jan. Thames II. Price,
attorney for George w. Tidwell, is un-
able to give the whereabouts Of his
client More than Il week ago Mr..
Price heard from Tidwell, the letter
being dated from Dothan, Alabama,
and containing the statement that the
convicted man would proceed to Co
lumbia, via Savannah, and arrive in
the former city Thursday or Friday of
week before last. 1t is possible that
Mr.. Tidwell has surrendered himself
to the penitentiary officials, and is
now serving his term.
This, however, is unlikely, linas-
much as the officials of Grecnville
county would be notified Of such an
event, and the papers of commitment
secured from the Grccnvillc officials.
There is no record in Columbia on
the case, SO the pcnitcntiary officials
would naturally get the records from
Grccnvillc.
have taken no steps to locate Mr..
Tidwcl. No doubt he has kept them
posted, as he has his attorney. Mr..
Price has regularly heard from Mr..
Tidwcll since the last appeal was
lost. and it became evident that the
seven year sentence must be served.
Mr.. Price has received Il letter ad
dressed to Mr.. Tidwcll, and from this
he infers that the intention Of the
convicted man is to come through
Grcenvillc on his way to Columbia.
The sentence of the court was that
Mr.. Tidwcll should serve seven years
in the pcnitcntiary or upon the Green
Vile chain gang. He elected to serve
in the pcnitcntiary
Yesterday afternoon u son Of Mr.
Tidwcll, who resides at Clinton. was
asked as to his fathers whereabouts,
but stated that he did not know, as
he had not heard from his father in
some time. The last letter received
by the son was sent from Dothan,
Alabama, where Mr.. Tdwcll had
been for several weeks.
Some time since Mr.. Price received
a letter from Mr.. Tidwcll in which
the letter said he was ready to sur
render, but would like to rcmain at
large a few weeks more, if cXpcdicnt,
in order to complete some business
deal. Mr. Price advised that Tidwcll
had better surrender promptly. That
was during Christmas week. One
more letter has been received by Mr.
Price since then, this last commune

an appeal to the State Supreme court,
Of his second conviction Of man

default. rs Tidwcll would not pay for
the printing of the necessary records.

VS. TYPHOID FEVER.
Government Experts are Doing Won
derful Work In Preventing Disease.

derful Work IN Preventing Disease.
Reduction in typhoid fever and i'm
provement in sanitary conditions have
followed the intensive investigation
Of rural communities carried on by
the United States Public Health Ser
vice in cooperation with local and
State health officers, according to the
annual report of the Surgeon General
of that service. During the past fiscal
year 1G.3G9 rural homes in eight diff
ferent states were visited and many
of them revisited. In each Of these
homes information was obtained as to
the prevalence Of disease and insanit
tary conditions and complete sani-
tary survey of the premises conduct
cd This was followed by reinspec-
ton to determine If remedial meas
urcs had been instituted. In but a
relatively small percentage of the
cases did the persons concerned, af-
ter having their attention drawn to
the danger of particular unhygicni
condition, fail to inauguratc corrective
measures Stimulus was given to the
work by means Of public lectures, the
formation Of active sanitary organiZa-
tions, and the enisting of all public
spirited citizens in the campaigns for
reform. Public buildings were also
inspected and local authorities given
expert advice in solving such sanitary
problems as the disposal OF cxcrcta,
the prevention OF soil pollution, and
the maintenance Of pure water sup
plies.
The surveys made during the year
1914 had shown that in rural com
munitics less than one per cent Of
the homes had sanitary toilets and
that more than fifty per cent Of the
people were using water from pollut-
cd sources. This condition, according
to the Public Health Service, made
the rural sanitation question loom
large among the matters vitality affect
ing the welfare of the nation. Follow
ing these studies and as result of
fever rate, an excellent indicator of
the sanitary status Of community,
has in some places frequently been
cut to one quarter Of its previous fig
urc. In Berkeley County, West Vir-
gina, the cases Of typhoid fever were
reduced from 249 to 40 in one year. In
Orange County, North Carolina, the
rural sanitation campaign resulted in
a reduction Of the cases f"Om 50 TO II.
