We notice that the Clinton paper
is advocating the putting of Pull
man or chair car on the c. N. and L.
between Greenville and Gharlestos.
That would be nice and we would be
glad to see it but it seems to US If
anything is to be done on that road l.
would accommodate more people If
the morning and afternoon train on
the C. N. and L. would start at Green
vile in the morning and return to
Greenville in the afternoon as it once
did. That would give the people as
far up as Greenville an opportunity
to go to Columbia and return the
same day as they once did. Such q
schedule was in operation on this
road at one time. Suppose you take
that up with the railroads concerned.

The city of Anderson voted $685.
900 bond issue on Monday practically
unanimous for street paving and the
bonds were sold on Tuesday. THIS
is not the first issue of bonds for this
purpose. When this money is spent
practically all of the streets of the
city will be paved.
What is the matter with NeWberry
We should be doing something along
this line. What is the committee that
was appointed to get up the petition
doing about the matter?

The Lazy Joseph.

Lawyer P. is very systematic man.
The other day he had his house fitted
with electric appliances, and giving
instructions to his servant, Joseph,
he said:
"Now, I want you to understand,
Joseph, that when I ring once that
means for you, and when l ring twice
that means for Maggie, the house
maid.''
Joseph, who was the LATEST wretch
that ever accepted wages he did not
earn, bowed respectfully and with
drew. A little later the bell rang.
Joseph never moved. Presently 1t
rang again, and Maggie came hurry
ing to her master, who was exceed
ingly wrathy.
"Why didn't that rascal. Joseph.
come when I rang for him?' asked
the lawyer, disgustedly.
why, Sir" answered Maggie, go

newspaper. When he heard the first
ring he said to me:

the second time and then it will be

THE CONSUMERS INTEREST

A bill OF Importance to all consunl-
ers IS the Stephens-Ashurst act now

standardize the price Of advertised
articles. AS it is now. a merchant
will frequently offer some famous %
cent article for % cents and then per-
haps make good his 2-cent loss by
charging several times as much on
some article not standardized and ad-
vertised. But it is to the advantage
Of the public to have advertised arti-
cles of known quality at known prices,
and then fair competition can be built
up to keep these prices right. We

A LITTLE MORE SHOP.

The Herald and News has decided
to shut down shop on Saturday at
one o'clock instead of o'clock. We
would be pleased if our customers
would bear this in mind. The editor
Will be on hand to receive visitors
and receipt for any amounts that are
to be paid, but We hope to let the
boys off at that hour. Of course, II
there is anything special to be done
we will not turn it down, but We think
it is right to let the boys out on Sat
urday afternoon especially during the
summer so that they may play base
ball or engage in any other sports
that are helpful.
Also we want to say that all whose
time was out on March l and who
have not renewed will be taken off
on Saturday. And those who have
been held to make corrections and
who have been written to will come
off unless we hear from them. We
will be glad to keep all of you with
US, but it takes money to make the
ghost walk. And we will give any
about whose proper credit there is
doubt the benefit of the doubt and
make the credit according to the rec
objection Of the subscriber If he will

Somehow We do not feel that there
is going to be any war with Germany
and the United States. That was not
a war message of the president to the
congress the other day. The people
do not want any war and the presi-
dent knows it. If some of the news
papers that are writing SO much war
and are so eager for the United States
to get into the war with Germany
would lay aside their pens and go on
to England and get in the fighting
the chance for peace would be much
better. Maybe they could lick the
Germans before breakfast and end
the whole thing. 1t is generally the
people who do the most talking about
fighting who do the least fighting.
We didn't go to war with England
when she put an embargo on our cot
ton and made a war zone around Ger
many and We cannot see why We
should raise such a howl when Ger
many puts war zone around Eng
land. We may have the right to go
where eve damn please on the seas
as Tillman says, but we didn't damn
please to run our ships into the
mines laid by England, and we can
not see much difference in the situa-
ton. And don't misunderstood US.
I'VE will do as much as some OF those
who talk more about it, to defend
American honor, but We do not feel
like having to fight because some
just for the excitement of
being submarined and sunk at sea
goes on some ship and rushes into
the war zone.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
20 treat liver and bowel complaints with
.alomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
rood that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
eeth like strong liquids or caiomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
At the expense of the teeth? Calomei
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel, but to let DIR. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "duliness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DIR. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel "loggy and
'heavy." Note how they "clear" ciouded
brain and how they "perk up" the spir-
its. 10c and 2sc box. All druggists.

NEW YORK SUN REVIEW

New York, March 26.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
War preparations in general and the
mobilization of the militia units and
military transfers in particular, en-
gagged more of the attention of Wall
street than did either stock or bond
market.
There is still too much speculation as
to what effect these preparations will
have on the business Of selling and
buying Of securities to permit OF a
great participation in the market from
the outside.
Affairs in Russia are being watched
with the greatest interest.
Trading today was mainly profess
sional. The first hour or two were &C.
tive in realizing sales. Prices held
well, however, until in the mid-fore
concerning the fate of the steamer ST.
Louis were circulated on the floor Of
the exchange. Almost coincident with
the cabled news that the liner had ar
rived safely on the other side came a
report that she had been torpedoed and
also that she had attacked and sunk
two submarines. These confusing and
contradictory rumors. quite unfounded,
Of course, nevertheless had an instan-
taneo US effect on certain strained
nerves and the market sold off sharply.
Thereafter trading died down without
disposition to rally.

be amply large enough to care for
double it present output and will be
modern in every way. Room has been
allowed for the addition of the manu-
