CONGRATULATIONS FOR BLACK
DRUG co.

Success is bound to come where a
square deal is given, and that is what
Mr.. R. w. Rhodes intends to give the
people of Bamberg. Mr.. Rhodes IN
talking the situation over last night,
said that even after three days work
he could see a record breaking sale
of Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy in our
city. First because the people with
whom he had talked seemed progress
sive and willing to take thing when
we'll vouched for, and secondly be-
cause he had selected the Black Drug
Co. as his medium of imparting what
he had to offer the people of Bam-
berg. The sales so far for Mrs. Joe
Persons Remedy are very gratlfy-
ing and day by day as one feels the
system undergoing complete reJu-
vination, you cannot and will not
help telling your friends of your feel
ings. Naturally when we are i'm
proved from any medicine we want
our friends to get the same benefits,
and by the way that is one of our
strong points, not newspaper adVer-
tising, but mouth to mouth advertis-
ing. Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy is a
vegetable preparation and is so blend
ed as to render it a harmless remedy
of great value, for the treatment of
Rheumatism, Chronic Malaria, Ner-
vous Indigestion and other ailments
of like nature, which come from a
rundown system. You will find Mrs.
Joe Persons Remedy instead of pro-
ducing a doped or over stimulated ef-
feet, merely tones and builds up the
system gradually producing flesh,
color and strength.
During this special campaign, as
a starter, Mr.. Rhodes has decided to
sell Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy at the
rate of one bottle for s1.00, three
bottles for $3.50, and six bottles for
SIS 90

SHACKLETON WILL FIGHT.
Famous Explorer to Enter Army At
ter Rescuing Polar Companions.

Sir Ernest Shackleton, Antarctic
explorer, was the guest of honor at
the Commonwealth clubs luncheon
at the Palace hotel.
AS special courtesy to the dis
tinguished guest, the women men,
bers of the club were invited to at
tend.
The pole hunter gave vivid de-
scription of his recent trip into the
frozen South. which started from
London two years ago. He was in
command o. double expedition, ten
members Of which are still marooned
on Ross island, in the western part
of the Antarctic region.
His personal party is back in civil
lization, all of those composing that
section of the expedition having safe
ly reached London.
Sir Ernest announced that it is his
purpose to enter the British army as
soon as the marooned adventures
are rescued He sailed, after his
brief stay here, for New Zealand to
begin his final dash for Ross island
the lest chapter in the '.expedition
of 1914"
The most salient characteristic OF
the intrepid explorer is his modesty
1t seemed to be positively painful to
him to submit to questions from in
terviewers, who persisted in inquir,
ing about ice packs. frozen air and
midnight days.
He spoke with a smile about the
experience Of ten months without q
bath or even removing his clothing
but he almost squirmed when asked
to explain the indomitable impulse
which has kept him exploring for the
last Is years.
''It gets into the blood, suppose,
was his comment. There are Ger
tain things one sets up as jobs to b.
accomplished, and one doesn't res
easily until they are done"
Sir Ernest referred to the war a.
t'that big push in civilizations cen
tre," and he displayed positive
yearning to get into its midst.-Sal

BARRIE A BASEBALL FAN.
Peter Pans" Author Changed His
Room to Watch a ScOrebOard.

When Sir James Matthew Barrie
was last in this country Che came to
see Charles Frohman in 1910 he
was dissatisfied with his suite in the
Knickerbocke and changed to rooms
in another part of the hotel. His
reason for doing this was that from
the window of the quarters first as
signed to him he could not get a good
view of the electrical scoreboard on
the Times building. The worlds Sc
ries was being played, and the author
of Peter Pan" spent many hours
breathlessly watching the ball of
light speed across the mimic dia-
mond.
This revelation of Barrie as base
ball fan" is one of many interest
ing intimate views of the great
Scotch writer obtained by one of the
very few Americans who have pene-
trated beyond the barriers of Bar
rie's shyness-Isaac F. Marcosson,
the biographer Of Charles Frohman.
No one in this country, with posi-
BILE exception of Frohman, knew why
the distinguished visitor changed his
room or that he was interested in
baseball. Except for a visit to Col.
Roosevelt at Oyster Bay and his
business conferences, Barrie sue
ceeded in living an almost hermit
like life in the very heart of New
York city.
And in London and in his native
Scotland Barrie has always been as
shy and elusive as he was in New
York. When he was in the United
States, according to story he told
Mr.. Marcosson, only one interview
with him appeared in a newspaper,
and that interview he himself wrote
without seeing a reporter. In Lon
don it is impossible to interview
him; it is difficult for his friends
and for people who have business
dealings with him to find his where
abouts or, having located him, to
get by his formidable Scotch but
ler.-Joyce Kilmer, in New York
Times.

We have seen a great deal in the
papers lately about saving waste pa
per. For the information of those
interested in this matter we will state
that not many days ago We took up
the matter Of buying paper baler
from one of the houses We deal with.
Paper has to be baled to be shipped.
We found that the baler would cost
$12 in Baltimore, and as baler is
rather a heavy piece of machinery
the freight would be probably $500
or more, making a total cost of SIS
for the baler. The waste paper
which would be accumulated in our
Office is worth 70 cents per 100
pounds in Baltimore, and we believe
the freight rate to Baltimore on this
class of freight is AZ cents per 100
pounds, leaving 2S cents per hundred
net. In other words, as soon as we
could save up about $500 pounds of
waste paper, We make enough to pay
for our baler. Ii any of our friends
among the publishers have been sue
cessful in saving up waste paper, we
would like to know of it.

1t is with pleasure and interest
that the friends of Carlisle school
will learn that she is to receive SIS,
600 from the Methodist educational
fund now being raised in this State
The Methodist conferences have un-
dertaken the task of raising $780,
900 for her educational institutions
Sixty thousand dollars Of this amount
has been raised, and it is. contemplat-
ed that the remainder will be raised
by next April. Carlisle's portion will
enable her to pay off all indebted
ness, and put the school in position
to rank with the best schools of her
class in the South. Carlisle has very
bright prospects, and Bamberg
should be proud to be the home of
such a school.

Eat Rice, Grow Fat and Save Money

This is a free advertisement fol
rice. Rice is one of the few food
products that has not advanced in
price. You can get about foul
pounds of rice for quarter. A

further than so cents worth of beef

Rice is a wholesome food. Fashion
caused a reduction of the greatest
food value in rice requiring it to be
polished. There ought to be law
forbidding the whitening of flour and
polishing of rice. The law should
be so that the whole grain should be
ground into flour. People would
have better teeth and better diges,
tions.
But this article is about cheap food
and not about the business of keep,
ing healthy.
Rice is the chief diet of about a
third of the population of the world
The rice-eating Jap whipped the fill
ing out of the tallow and flour-eating
Russian. A man can go further or
a rice diet than on any other single
article of food that is grown.
So, if you do not want to spend
all your money for food, buy rice.
If you want to have variety ,ir
your diet, and that cheaply, buy
sweet potatoes. And if you want {
dessert buy some molasses. Rice
sweet potatoes and molasses are the

FAMOUS TENOR TO BE HEARD.
In "Gypsy Love" Role He Created, at
Academy of Music, Orangeburg.

To all who are looking forward to
a musical treat extraordinary in the
presentation at Orangeburg of the
big Andreas Dippel production of
Gypsy Love" it will be keenly inter-
esting news to know that Arthur AL
bro, the famous young Russian tenor
who originated the stellar gypsy role
of "Jozsi' in America will sing the
role.
Albro is the wonderful young star
who was largely responsible for the
sensational success in America of
Gypsy Love-" Outside of grand
opera he probably is the greatest of
all light operate tenors in the Unit
ed States. He is specially blessed
with genius in addition to his Won
derful voice having abilities that
rank him as a great actor, talents for
the violin that hail him virtuoso
and good looks that are the despera-
ton of young matinee audiences. Re-
markably enough it was a combina-
tion of every one of these require
ments demanded by the role of
"Jozsi" in "Gypsy Love-" and the
display of versatility it permitted un-
doubtedly did most to establish him
as the great star he now is.
Albro is a native of Odessa, his
father having been tenor singer in
the Imperial Opera at St. Petersburg,
Moscow, and Odessa. Albro as a
youngster developed remarkably
fine barytone voice but gave it little
heed because of a youthful desire to
become a great dentist. He was TAX
ing general studies in Milan when the
rare qualities of his voice were first
discovered by an impresario, and
strangely enough it was at a time
when his voice was changing. A
Milan producer took him in charge
and started him in operate work
with the result that within few
months he had developed the glori-
Gus, low tenor voice that he now has,
and had won his spurs in grand
opera.
When Albro appeared in America
he was just in time, because all the
United States was being searched for
a youth of his unusual combination
of abilities to Great the Gypsy
Love- role.

GIRLS ARE CABBAGE QUEENS.
Four Young Women Earn Small For
tune as Vegetable Growers.

Four Westmoreland county young
women, daughters of Mr.. and Mrs.
c. H. Smith. of Ruffsdale, have es-
tablished new agricultural record
for the yield and profits to be de-
rived from two-acre plot of cab
bage.
The Misses Smith, the eldest OF
whom is IS, now have a bank ac-
count of 5000, with accounts due
from Pittsburg commission men
amounting to 5000, and fourth Of
their cabbage yet remain to be cut
and marketed. Buyers estimate the
value of the entire field at about
$4,000.
Early this spring Smith turned
the two-acre plot over to his daugh
ters, telling them to make any use
Of it they desired. The girls, after
closely scanning the market report:
for weeks, decided to grow cabbages
They set about $4,000 plants.
When the time arrived to cut cab
bage the scarcity of the vegetable
and skyhigh sauerkraut quotations

the two acres merely matter O.
