YOU'RE BILIOUS! LET
"CASCARETS" LIVEN
LIVER AND BOWELS
Don't Stay Headachy, Constipated,
Sick, With Breath Bad and
Stomach Sour.

Get 10-cent box now.
You men and women who can't
get feeling right-who have head
ache, coated tongue, bad taste and
foul breath, dizziness. can't sleep,
are bilious, nervous and upset, both
cred with sick, gassy, disordered
stomach, or have a bad cold.
Are you keeping your bowels clean
with Cascarets, or merely forcing a
passageway every few days with salts
cathartic pills or castor oil?
Cascarets work while you sleep;
cleanse the stomach, remove the
sour, undigested, fermenting food
and foul gases; take the excess bile
from the liver and carry out of the
system all the constipated waste
matter and poison in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will straighten
you out by morning. 10-cent box
from any drug store will keep your
stomach sweet, liver and bowels reg
ular, and head clear for months.
Don't forget the children. They love
Cascarets because they taste good
never grippe or sicken.-Adv.

EXPECT 1,20o DELEGATES
AT S, S. CONVENTION

Spartanburg, S. c., April 49,
Plans are under way for extending a
real Spartanburg welcome to the
hundreds of delegates that are to at
tend the State Sunday School con-
vention in Spartanburg, May 1, 2,
3. The entertainment committee,
with L. W. Perrin as chairman, is
busy at work securing homes for at
least 1900 out of town delegtes. The
duty of registering and assigning
the delegates to their homes is placed
upon Horace L. Bomar, chairman
of registration committee. AS such
a great attendance is expected, the
delegates are requested to register
in advance of the convention by
sending to Mr.. Bomar their name
and check for one dollar as regis
tration fee.
This will facilitate the work of
the committee, it is said, and the
delegates will make sure of having a
home reserved for himself. Spar
tanburg expects to furnish free en-
tertainment for all registered dele
gates.
It is announced that the conven-
ton headquarters will be the First
Baptist church. The general sessions
of the convention will be held in this
church each morning. The night
sessions will be held in Converse
College auditorium, that will seat at
least $500 people. In addition to
Offering the auditorium for the con-
vention, the Converse College au-
thofities have requested the privil-
ege of entertaining during the con-
Nention all former students Of that
institution. 3 D..
Within one more week all neces-
sary arrangements will have been
completed, it is believed, for making
this the greatest Sunday School con-
vention ever held in the State.

feed,t she has been milking several
months, and there has been a sud-
den change in the temperature.
The treatment for all such cases
is to give the cow some green food
or potatoes or turnips. If she is
constipated give her one pound of
EPSON salts. Then raise the temper
ature of churning. =. ! .
Difficult churning is due to trying
cream at too low temperature;
having the churn too full and churn-
ing at too slow speed. Butter
should come in not less than rs
minutes. The ordinary feed of the
cow will not effect the flavor of the
milk. Feed having a high flavor
as cabbage, onions and bitter weed
will give a bad flavor.
