LONELY EMMA.

Emma Goldman sad aud lonely
as she treads a distant shore, aud
she sighs, All me, if only | could
see the States once morel In a
recent dismal letter she complain
ed Of her distress, and her furrowed
cheeks grow wetter with her scald-
ing tears, | guess BY her friends
she seems forsaken, no one writes
to her, says she; and she eats her
bread and bacon, weeping, by Il
weeping sea BY the ocean wet and
cIaInmy she sits down to sigh and
yearn, wishing that her Uncle Sam
my would permit her TO return
When she lived beneath his banner
she was boosting every crime, acting
in bcastly manner, raising thunder
all the time. Absence makes the
heart grow fonder, as the dippy
poet raved, and old Emma, over
yonder, doubtless wishes she'd be
haved For this country Is the
sIickest that was ever ont OF doors,
and that person is the sickest who is
hanished from its shores And the

With valley lilies pale:
And grandpa, who was prominent
In learnings sacred halls
IN gingham shirt and rather loose

TRY SARDRAS FOR
AN UGLY temper
Cleanses the System, Purifies the
Blood, Stimulates the Stomach
and Tones Down the Temper

Ever hear them say: "Poor fellow
his liver is out Of shape?" Maybe they
say it Of you when you feel blue,
mean, Respondent; and maybe they're
right.
A stomach out of order, sluggish
liver and nagging indigestion or dys-
pepsia surely will affect your equili-
brium. 1t is a reason rather than an
excuse for "fying off the handle"
Watch your feelings. When the ear
ly morning finds you mean and cross,
think of your liver, kidneys and stom-
ach. They need cleansing. Your di-
gestion needs assistance.
Stop your rash eating, regulate
your habits and help your stomach and
liver along with SarDraS, AN Al
Liver, Kidney, Stomach and Blood
Tonic. Contains no alcohol.
1t is scientific preparation of
medicinal roots and herbs especially
prepared to invigorate the liver and
kidneys, cleanse the blood and diges-
tive system and help the stomach in
performing its duty. A tablespoonful
before each meal will do the work.
Common laxatives only leave you in
worse condition than before. Sar-
DraS cleanses the stomach, liver and
Kidneys and nature does the rest. Ask
all dealers and jobbers.

asking the governors of the 48 states,

ducers and others for information as
to the possibility of increasing Ger
man takings of cotton, which, prior
to the war, was an important for
eign outlet for low grade cotton,
caused the inquiry to be made.
1t was found that approximately
4,000,O0O German spindles are now
idle, but not entirely because Of lacks
Of raw cotton. Investigation as to
whether mills could be started if raw
cotton were available, if they could
purchase on credit and whether they
would be willing to give first lien on
mills and on one half of all manufac-
tured goods to guarantee payment of
bills at maturity disclosed that first
lien upon mills was impracticable be-
cause most mills are already mort
gagged and the trade says collateral
requested by equities in plants must
be used to obtain local working cap
ital. The investigation disclosed that
the banks are obliged to take the
risk of exchange on long term cred
it's. The question of German gov
eminent guarantee, as additional col
lateral through deposit of bonds or
otherwise, giving preferred payments
for cotton was answered that gen.
eral feelings in the textile industry
was absolutely against any govern
ment guarantee which would enable
the German government to obtain or
exercise any sort of control over the
industry. 1t was found that the mills
are willing to make deferred pay
ments in American currency. The re-
port said it was too early in the cot
ton year to obtain any authoritative
estimate Of this years raw cotton
consumption in Germany. Last years
consumption was about $4,000 bales.
This year between 100000 and 70O,-
600 bales, held last year as army
stocks of yarn, have exhausted.
Present season exports of cotton
to Germany have amounted to about
311, 900 compared with about 100000
bales during the corresponding
period last year.

TO NOF SUGAR
FOUND AT STILL
Quantity of Liquor Seized Along With
Twenty Barrels of Mash.

Camden, Dec. 13.-One of the larg-
est whiskey raids ever pulled off in
this county occurred during the ear
ly morning at a point about 18 miles
southwest of Camden in the Betty
Neck section Of West Wateree. In
the raiding party were Sheriff G.. G..
Welsh, Deputy Henry Mcleod and
Policeman Hollis Hilton and l.. e.
Barnes, all of Camden.
Thirty or 40 gallons of whiskey
was found, about 20 barrels of maph
and 20 sacks of granulated agar,
weighing 100 pounds each. The still
was of immense capacity and was
we'll located in dense section of the
Wateree swamp. Signs pointed to it
having been in operation for a long
while. 1t was substantially built
with brick foundation and it Is
thought many are implicated in it's
operation, though only two white
men were captured in the raid. They
have been placed in Jail and refuse
to divulge their names and are said
to be, men who have been long at the
business. They were captured with
out fight, as Officers Barnes and
Mcleod got the drop on them as they
were nearing the still. Most Of the
output is thought to have been dis
posed Of around Columbia in recent
months. The officers say it must
have cost several thousand dollars to
erect a plant such as this.
