0eIf Is Sill Calf.

The fact that the form IT clubs has
changed with the centur1~s does not
involve a change in the game itself.
Coli Is still the game that ras played
"a 1903, when VIC read in the Royal
Accounts n England that the SUM OF
two pounds two shillings was paid
for the king to play at the golf with
the Earl Of Boutwell," The balls were
of leather, stuffed with feathers but
it was golf, Just as 1t was the same
game When some Of US played Wfth
gutta balls, before the days Of rubber
eored balls and balls filed with high
explosives. For this reaaon the "Goh
Book Of Hours" is probably one Of the
most interesting pieces OF golf liter
ature in existence. Apart from the
beauty OF its execution and ITS value
as a work of art, it has peculiar in
.ersst to the student Of the game
whoSb shaky legs, with 6 thfee-foot
putt ~Sor the hole and match" have
often led him to wisa be might Neel
and send the ball rolling to sure s'c-
tory.

No s,unificanee in Dreams.


One raadb some so very silly articles
upon tie aubject Of recurrence OF
dreams Cat it Is necessary to repeat
that our dreams are nothing more
than q co5tiI uation Of the state previ-
Gus to sleep when we lie with no
bodily or ,aental occupation beyond
following cut whatever train OF
thought haprans to have been suggest
ed, a writer n the London Observer
remarks. TIVE common dream expert
ences frequently recurring are those
OF the sensation Of flying and OF the
uneasy impression Of Being about IN
public in insufficient attire. The first
is caused by the physical fact that we
are, at the moment without noticeable
pressure actually saspenoed in space;
the second by the eaually physical tact
that few people in these days 90 to
bed in their boots. It is beyond cues
tioa that dreams ara started or sug-
gested, not only BY these personal
hints, but by e1terna; evsnts, Usually
a nsise.

Relief From Pain
Brings Happiness
Substantial Farmer i S
Now Happy Man.
Recommends Tanlac.

It has been said that health and hap
piness 20 hand and hand. After much
suffering, when relief is experienced,
there is no wonder that one experience
happiness and joy. 1t is in the won.
derful story told by J. c.. Cain. one OF
the sturdy farmers of Westminster:
near the dividing lines of the States OF
South Carolina and Georgia, that we
are given beautiful example OF this
return of Joy when health is again
made better.
Mr.. Cain wrote recently to the State
agent for Tanlac at Columbia a volun-
tary testimonial of 1anlac. His ex-
periences are best told in the following
letter, which he wrote:
II feel under obligations to send you
correct testimonial for Tanlac.
Il have been sick for the past i've
years. I Istayed bilious and sick at my
stomach all the time. Nothing l ate
agreed with me and nothing l took
did me any good. The doctors here
announced that I had gail stones and
gravel stores. My kidneys gave me
severe pain all the time.
Before I began to take Tunlac it
was drag for me to get out every
morning to feed mv stock. Now can
get up and call MY wife to get break
fast, and by the Sime l get into the
yard I catch myself whistling and
singing the sweet songs used to sing.
My mules recognize my voice and be-
gin to bray and to knicker, knowing
that 1 am coming to give them their
food.
"Refore began taking Tanlac my
wife would ask me if I wanted to go
with her to preaching on Sunday
morning. I would tell her, mo" /
didn't feel like going. Now I get up
every Sunday morning and ask my
wife if She wants to 60 with me to
preaching.
"Before began to take Tanlac il
was d drag for me to go to- the field,
and sometimes I had to tell the boys
and show the other hands what to do.
Now can gesup every morning and
eat hearty breakfasl and drink my
coffee, TOO, and it doesn't hurt me, and
can go to the field and 90 as much
work as any hand have got"
1t is just such statements from citi-
zens of various walks of life like Mr..
Cain, who hold the highest esteem of
the community in which they live,
that have prompted others to buy the
great preparation, and. therefore the
makers of Tanlac are indebted to these
persons for their testimony.
After sending the above testimony,
Mr.. Cain sent additional testimony and
saws among others things: Il can cut
wheat all day long now, something l
have not done in FIVE years."
"Taulac," the Master Medicine, is
exclusively sold in Manning by the
Dickson Drug Store; in Summerton by
D. 0. Rhame.

Aftermath Of The Storm.

1t was a sight worth seeing to go
down to the St. Paul section and look
at the red water which backed out into
the low lands four or FIVE miles from
the river swamp and covered thous-
ands of acres of crops and woodlands in
sight of the Levi store. The writer
paid trip through that section to look
at the sights and to get line on the
situation as much as possible concern
ing the crops. From the Levi store at
St. Paul could be seen vast body OF
water, like large lake, covering fields
and woods, with boats plying on 1t,
and houses surrounded with water,
some inhabitants having moved out,
while others remained at home With
water up to the steps. Mr.. Joe King
was surrounded. but remained at home
while his friends would go to see him
in boats. It is out OF the question to
attempt to describe the many places
which we're covered with water be-
tween St. Paul and the river swamp,
as hundreds of acres Of crops were COW
cred with water for days, and the dam
age will 60 into the many thousands.
At St. Paul and Remini people were
coming from far and near, in cars, bug
gies, and by wagon loads to see the
great sight. It looked as if they were
going to great camp meeting.
At Remini, the waters were turbu-
lent and raging. and at this little
place many visitors from far and near
would congregate every day to see the
sights. One could walk for perhaps a
half mile into the swamp on the rail-
road track, on the edge of the enbank'
ment, before he reached the place
where the tracks were covered. with
the raging waters down on both sides
of him. The distance from the Claren-
don hill across to the Orangeburg hill
is. some five miles. and through the
right of way across the swamp to
the Orangeburg hill there was beau
tifut panorama presented, like the
harboc in Charleston or some other
arm OF the sea, as the winds made the
water, serge into waves and sparkle 10
the sunshine Several hundred loaded
cars had been placeo along practically
the entire distance where the track
vas covered, and at some OF the places
we learned that the waters rose over
the tracks, high enough to run through
thu box cars, and that boats were pad
died through the box cars standing on
the tracks. Telegraph poles and wires
in the swamp were completely covered,
and engines with steam up all thestime
were kept hitched to the cars to pull
as many of them out as possible and
save them in case the trestle began to
give way.
1t was only by herculean and vigi.
liant efforts on the part OF the railroad
people that this trestle was saved.
