MOTHER! GIVE CHILD
SYRUP OF FIGS" IF
TONGUE is COATED
If Cross, Feverish, Sick, Bilious,
Clean Little Liver and
Bowels

Children love this "fruit laxative"
and nothing else cleanses the tender
stomach, liver and bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop play
ing to empty the bowels. and the re-
suit is, they become tightly clogged
with waste, liver gets sluggish, stom-
ach sours, then your little one be-
comes cross, half-sick, feverish. don't
eat, sleep or act naturally, breath is
bad, system full of cold, has sore
throat, stomach-ache or darrhoea.
Listen, Mother! See if tongue is
coated, then give teaspoonful of
California Syrup of Figs" and in a
few hours all the constipated waste,
sour bile and undigested food passes
out of the system, and you have a
well, playful child again.
Millions of mothers give "California
Syrup of Figs" because it is perfectly
harmless; children love it, and it never
fails to act on the stomach, liver and
bowels.
Ask your druggist for 5O-cent
bottle of California Syrup of Figs"
which has full directions for babies.
children Of all ages and for grown
ups plainly printed on the bottle. Be-
ware or counterfeits sold here. Get
the genuine, made bv California Fig
Syrup Company" Refuse any other
kind with contempt.

TINY EDITION OF BILLIE
BURKE IN HOTEL ANSONIA

New York, Oct. 23.-A tiny edition
of Billie Burke, the famous actress,
was ushered into the world in the
Hotel Ansonia today. Late reports to-
night were that both mother and
daughter were progressing favorably.
Miss Burke is the wife of Florenz
Ziegfeld, Jr., the noted theatrical
managed. The little stranger took up
its abode in this city exactly at 3:15
o'clock this afternoon. At that mo-
ment Mr.. Ziegfeld was busy superin-
tending the rehearsals of his new all
star show. "The Century Girl" at the
Century theater.
1t was some time before he could
be found and the news impaired to
him. He Immediately rushed over to
his apartment in the Hotel Ansonia,
where he was quickly overwhelmed
with shower of congratulations from
all over the country.
Billie Burke and Mr.. Ziegfeld were
quietly married in Hoboken in April,
1914. The ceremony was performed
by the Rev. DR.. Enzelfeld. So care
fully were the arrangements for the
ceremony made that no one outside the
parents of the couple knew it for sew
eral days. Miss Burke appeared in
Jerry" the play in which she was
starring at the time, the same even

POLLOCK TO MAKE
RACE FOR SENATE
WAS A CANDIDATE IN 1914
CAMPAIGN.
Chesterfield County Man Announced
Last Night That He Would Seek
Togo Held by Tillman.

Columbia, Oct. 24.-W. p. Pollock,
OF Cheraw, last night announced that
he would be candidate for the Unit
ed States senate in 1918, when the
State will again select one of her rep
resentativeS in the greatest delibSra-
tive body on EARTH" This is the first
definite announcement for the senate
Senator Tillman, who now holds the
seat that will be filled at the next cleo
ton, has issued no statement lately
IN regard to himself, so it is yet some
what problematical as to whether or
not he will be a candidate to succeed
himself. The senator has, in years
past, expressed desire to "die in har-
ness" though more recently he has in
timated that because of his frail
health he will retire from public life
at the expiration of his present term.
The announcement of Mr.. Pollock
will create much interest. He was
the game cock" candidate in the
memorial campaign of 1914 when the
quartet of candidates was composed
of E. d. Smith, incumbent, Cole l..
Blease, then governor, l.. d. Jennings.
A more aggressive stump speaker than
Mr.. Pollock has not been heard in this
State since the old Tillman days. He
and Mr.. Jennings fought bitterly in
the campaign two years ago. They
entered as avowed anti-Blease men
and after the first week of campaign
cut loose with all the power of their
forensic oratory. 1t was Mr.. Pollock
who delighted the "antic" with his
never ending lampooning of the rec
ord of Governor Blease.
When he entered the race, little was
known of him oyer the State except
that he had served in the general as
semb!y, and had also had a position in
Washington. Within a few weeks his
name was familiar all over the State.
as his fight was of such unusual in
tenseness.
II is generally believed that The
announcement of Mr.. Pollock makes
it certain that the race for the SEN
ate will be, at the least, three-en-
try contest. 1t is assumed that Mr..
Blease will be candidate and al
most certain that either Senator Till
man OF Congressman Asbury Lever
will run. Mr.. Lever will probably
await the decision of the senior sena-
tor before announcing his intention
If Senator Tillman runs again, Mr..
Lever will most likely offer for re-
election to the house. In case the
venerable senator retires, the First
district congressman is expected to
enter the race.

Jonesville, Oct. 24.-There has been
frost in the country two or three
mornings but the effect is not visible
on the uplands and the crops and
vegetation are still green and grow
ing.
The mock wedding was we'll rem
dered in the graded school auditorium
here last Friday night at the graded
school house by local talent; the
building was crowded. Many persons
having to stand up. A neat sum was
realized.
At a rally meeting at the Meth
odist church here Sunday night debt
of three thousand dollars was raised,
which will put the church clear of
debt and the church will be dedicated
soon after the debt is paid. Many of
the members gave very literally when
the church was built, but the expense
ran up more than was expected
which brought the church out in debt.
Messrs. C. p. Sanders and C. P. Ham
mond of Spartanburg were present
Sunday night by special invitation and
made enthusiastic talks which helped
much in raising the debt.
The Baptists will soon be ready to
commence the building of a new
church upon the same spot upon
which the present one stands and
while the Methodsts will be happy
in paying off their debt and having
their church dedicated the Baptists
will be equally as happy in getting
their new church built.
