MOST REALISTIC WAR MAP.
Gives Topography, Chief Cities and
Towns and Vessels on Seas.

The great war map installed in a
Chicago store at a cost of thousands
of dollars is novelty both as busi-
ness enterprise and as a means OF
giving geographical instruction. 1t
shows the topography and chief cities
and towns Of most European lands
including France, England, Scotland,
Ireland, Germany, Russia, Belgium,
Turkey, Servia, Italy, Greece, Bull
garia, Switzerland, Holland, Denmark
and Norway-and gives such details
as steamship and railway lines, forts,
wireless stations, palaces, churches
and other buildings Of Importance.
The various bodies of water are rep
resented with dreadnaughts, subma-
rines and other vessels sailing the
seas. Railway trains cross the terri
tory, messages are flashed from wire
less stations and at night lights glow
in each city. Lighting is arranged
to make day and night changes at in
tervals of ten minutes. In the night
scenes the air takes on new charac-
ters and ingenious cloud and electric
al effects are displayed.

Gilberts Fined $4,000.

The following article is taken from
the Bishopville Leader and Vlndl-
Gator. This is the case where the
Gilberts assaulted Miss Broadway, OF
Paxville, when she was teaching IN
their school:
For thirty-seven years we nave
been reporting court proceedings and
IN all those long years we have never
had anything to touch us with great
er degree of sadness, not even the
death sentence on murderer, as did
the sight last Thursday, when Judge
Wilson summoned almost an entire
family before him to receive SEN
tence of the court for assault and
battery of high and aggravated ma
ture on a helpless young lady school
teacher. Judge Wilson's lecture to
them while scathing, was done in
such a tender, fatherly way that 4t
touched the hearts of everyone who
heard it. He said it was bad enough
to pass sentence upon negro, but
when it comes to passing sentence
upon a whole family of white people,
who from both moral and lntelll-
gent standpoint, ought to know bet
ter than to commit such a deed, it
was doubly painful. But, he said,
with much pathos and feeling, Il am
not passing sentence on you Mr.. Gill
bert, and your family, so much as
upon the heinous crime that has been
committed, and for the vindication
of Lee county for law and order.
The sentence of the court is that Mr..
Gilbert be confined at hard labor for
one year or pay fine of $500, Mrs.
Susannah Gilbert be confined in the
county jail one year or pay $500,
Misses Estelle and Ruby Gilbert be
confined in the county jail 6 months
or pay a fine each of $3.50, Lawton
and ROTOR Gilbert hard labor for 6
months or each fine of $780,
The Judge heard Mr.. B. F. Kelley's S
argument for new trial before pass
ing sentence, which was refused.
The defendants were let out on
bond pending the ten day limit for
an appeal to supreme court.

OBITUARY..

Mr.. Sylvester D. Guess was born
near Denmark, S. c., then known as
| Graham's Turnout, on Oct. 11th
1874, and died at Columbia, S. c..
where he had gone for treatment, on
June 18th, 1916. His remains were
brought to Denmark and inferred in
the Denmark cemetery on the morn
ing of June goth, 1916. His pastor,
Rev. H. G.. Hardin, assisted by Rev.
J. D. Higgins, performed the funeral
rites.
Early in life he became member
of the Methodist church and, at the
time of his death he was steward
and had been for many years. His
brother stewards, J. B. Guess, w. l..
Riley, Jno. B. White, w. H. Faust,
E. A. Collins, C. S. Folk, J. A. Wig
gins and J. Wesley Crum, Jr., acted
as his pallbearers.
Mr.. Guess was twice married.; his
first wife was Mrs. Matte Copeland,
of Hendersonville,. S. c., his second
wife was Miss Anna Adele Phillips,
of Sumter, S. c., who survives him,
with the following brothers and sis
ters: D. E. Guess, HendersQpville,
S. c.; G. A. and ]. R. Guess, Willis
ton, Fla; Mrs. Fannie R. Carter,
Fairfax, S. c.; Mrs. Lou A. Martin
and Mrs. Ida Goolsby, Denmark, S. c.
At the beginning of the war be-
tween the States, although but a
youth of 16 years, he was among the
first to enlist, joining the Bamberg
Guards under Capt. Grimes, making
most excellent soldier.
How can anyone pay tribute to
such a man in a few words? TO
know him was to love him, to watch
his unselfsh, helpful life was to
make you his friend always. There
never came a moral issue in any cir
Gle, either secular or religious, but
what he was found on the side OF
right. 1t is not necessary to invade
the sacred precincts Of the family
circle in order to speak of the home
life. Those traits of character, which
go to make up the true Christian
gentleman, were manifested there; a
hospitality true and generous was al
ways found and from which one de-
parted refreshed.
He will be sorely missed, not only
by his loved ones and friends, but
by his church and State. We COM
mend his soul to the gracious God
who gave it,
"Life's race we'll run,
Life's crown well won,
Life's work well done
Now cometh rest"

Bamberg cannot grow unless there

Bamberg cannot grow unless there
are houses for the increased popu-
lation to live in. At present it IS
practically impossible for neWcom-
or to secure a residence in which to
live. Something will have to be done
about providing cottages for rent
Why not organize real estate COM
pany in Bamberg for the purpose OF
building a number of medium priced
cottages to rent? We know of sew
eral parties at this time who want
and need houses and cannot get
them. There are plenty of people in
Bamberg who have money they could
invest in houses of this character.
Who will be the first to inaugurate
a movement to organize a company
to build houses-and thereby help
the town to grow?

GARLIC AS A MEDICINE.
Old Time Remedy Found Efficient in
Treating tuberculosis.

Recently the Post called attention
to the gradual homecoming OF
mothers remedies" in their appeal
to the present generation as having
their genesis in approved experience
as to their value in curative power.
Among the various remedies hold
ing high rank in the "materia med
ica' Of the housewives Of the past
was that of garlic and the several
varieties of the garlic family as re-
medal in the general systematic
treatment of ailments to which hu-
man flesh was heir.
Three years ago Toronto physi-
clan, at his own expense, reprinted
and circulated a pamphlet by DR.. W..
c.. Minchin, of Dublin, entitled The
Treatment, Prevention and Cure of
tuberculosis with Oleum Allii." The
Toronto physician had treated and
cured his brother, who was far gone
with the dread disease.
"Oleum Allii" is merely the scien-
tific name for oil of garlic.
The London Lancet, one of the
worlds leading medical journals,
about a year ago contained a long
report on the success of the garlic
treatment in the tuberculosis wards
Of Paddingford.
Following the publication in the
Lancet, DR.. Lea Summers, an emf
nent New York physician, made the
statement that garlic is responsible
for the relative immunity of Jews
and Italians to tuberculosis, an i'm
munity that has been so marked as
to excite the wonder of the medical
world. Indeed, it is we'll known
fact that tuberculosis is almost un-
known in Italy, where garlic is con-
sumed almost as freely as we con-
sumo onions:
In Italy physicians treat tubercu-
losis with infusions of and poultices
of garlic as a matter of course, and
in that country mothers give their
children garlic syrup at the first in
dication of a cold:
DR.. Maurice Fishberg, in discuss
ing the prevalence Of tuberculosis
among Jews of New York, said:
"The Jews always have been garlic
eating people and almost immune
from tuberculosis, but when they
come to America they cease to eat
garlic and become susceptible to the
disease"
The statement has been made that
when Italians in this country become
affected with tuberculosis, those of
them who are financially able to do
so Immediately return to Italy, be-
lieving that the. air of their native
land and it's garlic-favored food will
cure them. 80 H..
Certain it is that pure air is one
of natures most effective remedies
for the dread disease and the testi-
mony is pretty strong that garlic is
an efficient co-agent in resisting it.

COST OF EUROPEAN WAR.
At Every Tick of the Watch Over
Thousand Dollars is Spent.

Every time the second hand OF
your watch ticks, the war has cost
the warning nations of Europe some
thing over 81 ,041. 1t is costing them
s9,75O,OOO an hour, $90,000,000 a
day, and s65O,0OO,O00 week.
By August l next, when the sec
ond year of the war will have ended,
the gigantic conflict will have cost
$4,000, 100000. These figures are
presented in a special booklet on the
war which the Mechanics and Metals
National Bank of New York city will
issue this month.
According to the banks figures, II
warfare lasts until August 1, it will
have cost Great Britain $11,600, 0,000,-
600. The cost to Germany will have
been a bit less than that and the fig
ures for France will have been 49,
100000. The total military ex-
penditure of the warning nations for
the first year of the conflict was ST.
500 100000. For the second year it
will be s2S,O00,00O,O00.
The aggregate of these amounts,
according to the booklet, is sum
three times greater than the entire
Capitalization of the railways of the
United States and four times greater
than the total deposits of all our ma
tional banks.
Two years of the war will have
cost six times more than our Civil
War, forty times more than the
amount of the national Indebtedness
of this country and 120 times more
than the cost of the Panama canal.
According to the computations made
by the banks statistician Great Bri-
tain's war expenditures are now $780,
100000 a day. The daily war cost
to France is 100000 and to Rus
sia $15,5OO,00O. It costs the Ger
manic allies about half what it costs
the entente allies.
Discussing loans, the booklet says
that loans of a permanent character
made by the entente reached a total
of more than s12,O00,000,O00, while
Germany and Austria borrowed $l1,-
700, 100000. Large as these sums
were, they financed little more than
one-half the cost of the war, S2O,-
OO0, 100000 having been obtained by
temporary financing, taxation, issu-
ance of paper money and other expe-
dients. Thus at the same time that
formal war loans offered to the peo-
pie have gone beyond any credit op-
erations known before, the money
markets have been resorted to on
scale surprising all precedent and
resources of the central banks OF the
warning nations have been drawn
upon to large degree.
The financing thus far has been &C.
complished with comparative ease
and without violently affecting rates
in the money markets. Means to
regulate these markets. have been
found both in the issuance Of paper
money and in the elimination of all
industrial financing that might be
competitive with government loans.
