In olden times peace jubilees wen
held after the etd of a war, but w.
are now so modern that we hold
peace jubilees while we fight.
While Wasbirgton is iolding in
gTejU peace jubilee, they should no.
overlook the fact tbat each day a
number of our soldiers are beinp tare. Bat every legislature is pre
shot down in the Pnillipines auo sumed to b . honest and patriotic and
(i nlcrrnnnmW dvintf of dis- to legihlate solely with the view to
ease in ibat trop'-cal climate as are
dvina from bullet wounds.
Washington is making great prep-
aratiou tor a grand peace jabilee. 1
it possible that Washington think
thosit are peaca victories we are hav

we ar shooting down our own sub

Tbo salary of the mayor of Wil
mington has been increased from
91.200 to $1 800. Thus mayor Wad
dtll gets additional relief for his ser
vices in organ sing the mob to burn
houses and murder people in Wil
mingtou in the last campaign. S j tbe
eij yment of this eighteen hundred
dollar salary would indicate that
there was method in his madness and
anarchistic speeches alter all.
The Corporation Commission,
which by tbe act of tbe last legisla
tare succeeded tbe Bailroad Com
mission has held a meeting ant de
cided not to reduce freight and pass
enger rates not to trj any of the caf
es tbat were pending before the R R
Commission. Thus, bo far, they are
cairying oat the contract that wt
no dfubt made by mmon and the
machine with the railroads when thej
put up large amounts of mon-y f . r
tm, campaign fund. This is indeed
the Corporation'. Commission.
Oar readers will remember that
sometime last February a negr
postmaster named Baker, wis unr
der d at Like City, S. C. It seemed
that Baker l.ved in tbe back part of
the building ia which he kept tbe
post tfflue. Tbe murderers set fire to
the house with Biker and his family
in it, and then shot Baker and each
member of bis family as they ran
oat, fleeing from the flumes. Baker

io not think any legislature should
be able to pass aoy law which a sub

There are dozens of remedies recommended for
Scrofula, some of them no doubt being able to
afford temporary relief, but 8. 8. S. is absolutely
the only remedy which completely cures it.
Scrofula is one of the most obstinate, deep-seated
blood diseases, and is beyond the reach of the
many so-called purifiers and tonics because some
inmg more tnan a mere tome is required, o. o. n.

Do you cough?
Do your lungs pain you?
Is your throat sore and inflamed?
Do you spit up phlegm?
Does your head ache?
Is your appetite bad?
Are your lungs delicate?
Are you losing flesh?
Are you pale and thin?
Do you lack stamina?
These symptoms are proof that you
have in your body the seeds of the most
dangerous malady that has ever devas
tated the earth consumption.
Consumption, the bane of those who
have been brought up in the old-fashioned
beliefs that this disease was hered
itary, that it was fatal, that none could
recover who were once firmly clasped in
its relentless grip.
But now known to be curable, made
so by the world-stirring discoveries of
that man whose name has been given
to this new system of treatment.
Now known, to be preventable and
curable by following and practising his
hygienic teachings.
The new system of treatment will cure
you of consumption and of all diseases
which can be traced back to weak lungs
as a foundation.
It is not a drug system, but a system
of germ destruction and body building.
