clared former United States Senator

the annals of South Carolina politics
in many years.
Ex-senator McLaurin did not say
that he would be candidate for gov

Visitor From Alabama.

Mr.. w. f. Rose, resident of Eu-
fala, Ala, but a native Of this county
who left here about thirtyfye years
ago, has been visiting in this section
and was in I.aurens Thursday in COM
pany with Mr.. j. o. Garrett Of Ian
ford Station. Mr.. Roses father will
be remembered by some of the older
citizens Of the county who will recall
that he taught school In various COM
munities here when Mr.. w. F.. Rose
was boy. Mr.. Rose was here selling
some hogs which mis- neighbors raised
after the boll-weevil had gotten in its
work there. He said the boll-weevil
worked havoc there for awhile, but
after the people began raising hogs,
velvet beans, peanuts, ETC., there was
a distinct turn for the better. The
pople there now, he said, are as pros
porous as they have ever been. Tho
cotton crop of his county was reduced
from about $4,000 bales per year to
about 1000 bales per year.

The shutting down OF many Of the

day for the next nine weeks presents
splendid opportunity to employees
Of these Industries to prepare and
plant thir spring gardens. The criti-
cal food situation in the country
makes it absolutely imperative for ev-

ate consumption and for canning, and

Acolu, by Mr.. Ropcrs father, Mr.. r.

ing stated. The property runs back
to Caroline street and lies on both
sides Of the Grcenville branch Of the

not intend making any changes in the
property at present.
This old site has considerable local
historical interest as 1t has long been
devoted to the lumber business. The
oldest citizens" will recall that in
1892 was erected there what was
claimed to haYe been the first steam
saw. mill in the upper part Of the
state, the owner Of which was Mr.
Xix and from Elm got the name "thc

the old ones, the present building Oc-
cupied by Mr.. Roper having been
erected in comparatively recent years.

SYRUP OF FIGS FOR GROSS, SICK
 FEvERISH CHILD
LIVER TORPID OR BOWELS CLOGGED.

Mothers can rest easy after giving California Syrup of Figs" because in a few hours all the clogged-up waste sour bile and fermenting food gently moves out of the bowels, and you have well, playful child again. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, and they become tightly packed, liver gets sluggish and stomach disordered.
 When cross, feverish, restless, see if tongue is coated, then give this delicious fruit laxative" Children love it, and it can not cause injury. No. difference what ails your little one-if full of cold, or a sore throat, diarrhoea, stomachache bad breath, remember a gentle inside cleansing should always be the first treatment given. Full, directions for babies, children of all ages and grown ups are printed on each bottle.
 Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask your druggist for bottle of California Syrup of Figs" then look carefully and see that it is made by the California Fig Syrup Company" We make no smaller size. Hand back with contempt any other fig syrup.
