New Way to Quickly
Stop Worst Cough
A remarkable new and simple
method for treating' a cough give®
relief with the first doses and usual
ly breaks a eevere cough in 24
hours.
The treatment is based on the
prescription known as Dr. King"a
New Discovery for Coughs. You
take Just one teaspoonful and hold
It in your throat for 15 or 20 sec*
©ndsi before swallowing:, without
following: with water. The prescrip
tion has a double action. It not
only soothes and heals soreness and
irritation, but it quickly loosens
and removes the phlegm and con
gestion which are the direct caust
of the coughing. People have been
astonished how quickly the cough
ing stopped with this new treat
ment, and the whole cough condi
tion goes in a very short time.
The prescription is for coughs,
chest oolds, hoarseness, bronchitis,
spasmodic croup, etc. It is excellent
for children as well as grownups——
®o harmful drugs. Economical, too.
9LB the dose is only one teaspoonfu£

T. B. STEVENSON
PLANS NEW MILL
Plans to Erect Big New Cotton
Mill Plant At Jones
ville, S. C.
(Cherokee Times)
T. B. Stevenson, who recently lo
cated in Gaffney to make his home
here and who has already assumed a
place of considerable importance
from a financial standpoint in the
city of Gaffney, may soon erect a
considerable cotton mill plant at
Jonesville according to reports com
ing here yesterday from Jonesville.
It was not possible to get Mr. Stev
enson to confirm the report, but on
the other hand, he did not deny it
and went so far as to say that people
who thought he had retired from ac
tive business were badly mistaken.
This is taken to indicate that Mr.
Stevenson has under consideration
either the Jonesville or some other
business undertaking.
The following story sent from
Union to The Spartanburg Herald
will be read in Gaffney and Cherokee
county with very keen interest:
"A new cotton mill, to cost ap
proximately $2,000,000 today loom
ed as a possibility for Jonesville, ac
cording to unverified reports which
were being circulated around Union
today.
"The proposed industry, if pres
ent plans should materialize, will
have 25,000 spindles and a comple
ment of looms.
"Although business men at Jones
ville could give no definite informa
tion, they admitted that there has
been some such talk of such a mill
for some time and that at present
committees are negotiating with a fi
nancier for a possible building site.
It was generally understood that the
town of Jonesville will donate a site
should the mill be constructed at that
place.
"A telephone message to T. B.
Stevenson in Gaffney today partly
confirmed the rumors. He said that
he has certain plans under consider
ation for the proposed mill, but
would give out no definite informa
tion for publication.
" Some people are inclined to
think that I have retired from the
cotton mill business/ said the well
known manufacturer, 'but they are
wrong.'
"Further than this he refused to
go, saying that plans so far have not
developed enough to make public.
"It is known that a site has been
under consideration by the Jones
ville business men, but the exact loca
tion is not revealed.
"Should the mill be located at
Jonesville, it will tend to fulfill pre
dictions that within the next few
years this immediate territory will
be one of the most important cotton
manufacturing centers of the nation.
This is due to the advantageous pow
er lines which form a network across
the country."

DR. MORSE
PRESENTS GAVEL
Morse Literary Society Has In
teresting Meeting; Dr. L.
B. Morse Guest.
Chimney Rock, Feb. 16—At a
meeting of the Morse Literary So
ciety, of the Chimney Rock school,
Friday morning, Dr. L. B. Morse was
present and presented a gavel to the
society. The gavel is of ebony and
on the mallet a silver plate on which
is engraved, "The Morse Literary
Society, presented by Dr. Lucius B.
Morse, 1924."
This meeting was called to order
by the president, Miss Willie Flynn.
After the usual business and roll
call, Dr. Morse then presented the
gavel in beautiful words, expressing
his appreciation of the honor which
had been conferred upon him, in
thus perpetuating the use of his
name though the society, stating that
he had been deeply touched because
of the generous motive which had
prompted this honor. In a few hu
morous words he explained that, de
spite its weight and shape the gavel
was not intended as a weapon of at
tack or defense, in case the members
became too boisterous, but that it's
use had come down as a symbol of
authority, a rap on the desk being
sufficient to call the meeting to order
or to quiet noisy discussions.
The president responded thus:
"Words fail to express our appre
ciation for the lovely gavel which
Dr. Morse has presented to the Morse
Literary Society. It will be kept and
preserved not only for this school,
but for the future generation and
will be useful for many new presi
dents to call to order the Morse Lit
erary Society. Dr. Morse, in the name
of the Literary Society, I thank you."
The cheer leader, Miss Janette Dot
son, led the cheers after asking the
following questions: "Which is the
best state in the Union?"
All—"North Carolina!"
"Which is the best county in this
state?"
All—"Rutherford County!"
"Which is the best school in this
county?"
All—"Chimney Rock School!"
"Where is Chimney Rock School?"
All—"On the site of Lake Lure!"
"Which is the best Society in this
School?"
All—"The Morse Literary So
ciety!"
"Who backs it?"
All—"Morse! Morse!! Morse!!!"
"Two, four, six, eight—Whom do
we appreciate?"
All—"Morse! Morse!! Morse!!!"
Give fifteen rahs for Morse; fif
teen rahs for Lake Lure and fifteen
rahs for Chimney Rock.
The Society then sang "Chimney
Rock," the words of which were writ
ten by Miss Webb.
"We love thy grand and glorious
hills,
Chimney Rock, dear Chimney Rock,
Thy waterfalls and tiny rills,
Chimney Rock, dear Chimney Rock.
Within thy walls sweet fountains
flow,
Perfumed by breezes sweet that blow,
And tinted with the sunset glow,
Chimney Rock, dear Chimney Rock.
To thee we now our tribute bring,
Chimney Rock, dear Chimney Rock.
Thy glories new we'll ever sing,
Chimney Rock, dear Chimney Rock.
No fairer place on earth is found
In the content and place abound,
Dearest of all the land around,
Chimney Rock, dear Chimney Rock."
