BETTER THAN ASPIRIN
FOR COLDS AND FIJI
The Improved Aspirin Tablets, Called
Aspitone, Are Slightly Stimulating
Instead of Depressing to the Heart.
Do Not Upset Stomach.

Physicians and druggists are en-
thusiastic over Aspitone, the new and
improved aspirin tablets that are said
to be slightly stimulating instead OF
depressing to the heart. They explain
that severe colds, influenza, fevers,
headaches, neuralgia ard rheumatism
are almost invarie5ly attended by q
weakness Of the heart and require
stimulation rather than depression
Heart failure, they say, is especially
to be guarded against in influenza
and pneumonia, hence they recon-
mend Aspitone.
A gentle laxative with one or two
tablets of Aspitone, as needed, is now
the physicians favorite treatment TOT
severe colds and threatened pnea-
monia. It will usually cut short a
cold or sore throat over night. Aspl l.
tone tablets are also being used with
splendid results for the relief Of pain
in headaches, neuralgia and rheunla
tism. The leading druggists every
where are now supplied with Aspitone
which is sold in sealed packages,
price 35 cents. They may be obtained
locally at Glider & Weeks and P. E
Ways Drug Store.

His sentiments are so true. as to make
my Southern spirit develope to the
height of making me feel it duty, as
a patriotic Southern woman. to speak
in behalf of the women OF Newberry
county and State.
I firmly believe that every woman
in South Carolina, even the South
alone, is too proud Of, and true to her
virtuous and gentle Southern charac-
ter, to become Influenced or followers
of the Republican propaganda, in the
form of woman suffrage leaders of the
North and West.
will have to be convinced that the
women of this State will ever desire
to cultivate the custom of keeping
apace with every walk in life; nor rise
to demand equal rights with the polit-
ical leaders of the South.
The women of South Carolina have
their rights, the right to make Chris
tian moral and educational homes for
their loved ones-leaving man his
right to make and grovern the laws
for the welfare of our country.
AS to mental capacity, the balance
is near equal, but God did not intend
woman to rule, they being conscien-
tious of the fact, do willingly obey
characteristic Of her Southern dispo-
sition.

Pollock will not become Adam. to be
tempted by the Eve suffragettes with
their eatables and caressing fattery,
this being one way of entering the
heart is through the mouth, to meet
his noble heart, and become traitor
to his State.
take Cor granted that every woman
of this State will gently request Con-
gress to avoid the adoption of the
suffrage amendment; a poisonous step
to endanger and bring our State to
total disaster. A repetition of '76. We
don't want woman suffrage! We don't
need it,! The South is no place for

NEGRO TROOPER DREW RAZOR,
LITTLE OF GERMAN LEFT

New York, Feb. 2.-Slightly disfg-
ured and all his teeth gone but with a
broad, generous smile that beamed
home at last" Private William Scott,
colored. of the 369th regiment, U. S. A..
infantry, was able to walk down the
gangplank Of the battleship Connecti-
cut today because of his ability in a
style of fighting that is historically
American.
He was disinclined to talk, at first,
about an incident in the battle of Ar
gonne Forest on September 20 in
which he was leading figure. His
comrades told the story, however, and
after that there was nothing for Priv
ate Scott to do but give the details.
He had been out of the fighting for a
short time. When he arose from the
ground he was disarmed and found
himself facing a German with bayonet
fixed. Then Private Scott says:
First thought it was all over when
saw that bayonet dazzlin' in the sun.
"Then, when I felt the blade Just
scratch my shirt as it went through
the shoulder Of my coat, just natural
ly felt as if l was due for an arug-
ment.

fetched out my old razor. And, believe
me, when 1 got through illustrating

fghtin' man knows puffetly well,
there wasn't much German around

LAWS PRINTED IN GERMAN
How the State of Indiana Catered to
the Teuton Element in the Fifties
and Sixties.

Time was when the Indiana general
assembly directed that it's laws be
printed in German as well as in Eng
lish-but never more, observes the In
dianapolis News.
In 1852 the legislature enacted a
statute that its laws passed at that
session should be printed in German
jand one copy distributed to each Of
the clerks of the judicial circuits. By
Joint resolutions Of the senate and
house the session laws Of the special
session of 1858, the regular session Of
1859, the regular session of 1861. the
special session of 1861, and the regu-
lar session of 1867 were printed in
the German language. The revised
statutes of 1853 were ordered printed
in German.
Mrs. Edward Franklin White Of the
law editorial department of the Bobbs-
4 Merrill company, believes the print
ing of the acts in German was no part
Of the propaganda for "kultur." which
has been so exposed Of late, but she
rather believes that Indiana was MAX
ing a special bid for settlement by
Germans along with other foreigners
who were westward bent. She says
all sorts OF inducements were held
out in the ifties and sixties to attract
colonization in Indiana and CITES. as
another of the inducements. the lax
constitutional provisions constitution
Of 1852 for obtaining citizenship, or
at least the right to vote.

Civilization Fatal to Eskimo.

Vilhjalmur Stefansson, Arctic ex-
plorer, to whom the Charles P. DAILY
medal was presented by the American
Geographical society for his "valua-
,ble contributions to science" pleaded
that no efforts be made to cfvilize the
Eskimo tribes of the far North. All
such previous efforts, he stated, had
resulted disastrously for the natives.
One tribe of 5000 discovered in 1925
by an English explorer, he said, was
now reduced to only 40 persons
through adoption of a civilized mode
of living, which was unsuitable for the
SD cline.
