Dr. T. A. Crawford, of Hock
Hill, told a News reporter of
a singular incident that oc
curred in Rook Hill q few
days ago. An eight year old
bovcaueht hold of a. live
wire that had been blown
by a storm. His feet were
touching the damp ground
And the circuit was comple
ted through his body," He
was thrown flat. Several per
sons were standing near, and
neeing his predicament, tried
to help hira. Every one who
touched him was thrown to
the ground with a severe
shock of electricity. At last
ihe boy's father got an axe
undent the wire, breaking
the circuit. The child was
badly burned on the back of
Its neck and was almost dead.
An electrician who worked on

A PRAYER.
Oh Thou whom name is . Love,
who nver turuwl away from the
cry of Thy noedy children, give
ear to m.v prayt-r this morning.
Make this a day of blessing to
and make me a blessing to
other. Keep all evil oway from
me. Preserve me from outward
transgression and from secret
sin. Help me to control my tem
jht. May I eheck the first rising
of anger and sullenness. If I meet
with un kindness and ill treat
merit, giv me thatchaiity which
sufferetb long and eudureth all
things. Make me kind and gentle
toward all, lovingthose wholove
me not. Let me live this day as il
it were to be my last. Oh, my
God, show me the path that
Thou wouldst have me to follow.
May I lake no step that is not
ordered by Thee, and go nowhere
xcept thou Lord go with m. A-
men. Ashton Oxenden.
Chatham Record: All Amer

Dreyfus by the French gov

no such travesty on justice
could occur in this country.
And yet a greater travesty
has occurred in this couii-
ry. and the victim was an in
nocent woman!
We refer to the judicial raur

brtunate lady was hanged

demand for somebody's
blood, after a farce of a trial,
that was as disgraceful as
the trial of Dreyfus.

mended, I could say it had a
hole in it. couldn't I? Yes,

Nasal Catarrh-What Is It?
A purely local affection, a germ
that exists in parasites. There is
no disease of which more haveun

whiea less have understood the
first principles of cure. Inhalers
have been used, medicines haye
been taken internally and appli
ed externally, but no relief has
been experienced by the catarrh
sufferer. Why? because the prima
ry cause of the disorder has nev
er been unearthed- the first pnn
ciple of the discomfort had never
presenteo itself to those who trea
ted, rather maltreated it. The
misguided sufferer had never been
cognizant ol the tact that the
sords, a filthy, pellucid matter,
and the parasites (minute am
