TREATMENT GIVEN
FOR HORSE DISEASE
State Veteralnmiriuii Make Inspec
tion of the Horse Disease Epidemie
in Upper Part of County.
W. Ray Powers, state veterinarian,
has made un inspection of the area in
the upper portion of the county and
lower Greenville county in which so
many horses have died recently. The
veterinarian has suggested in a more
minute form about the same treat
ment given by Mr. W. P. Harris in
The Advertiser of last week.
The directions are as follows:
".Medical treatment is unsatisfac
tory and practically useless in the ma
jority of cases, as the central ner
| vous system has usually undergone
degenerative changes before the symp
toms develop. When the animal Is
noticed before the ability to swallpw
is lost, a purgative should be given
immediately. One oz. and a half of
Barbadoes aloes dissolved in a quart
of warm water is probably the most
satisfactory although three quarters
of a pound or one pound of Epsom
salts (well diluted) or one qt. to one
qt. and a half of raw linseed oil may
be given. It will be noticed that these
are larger doses than ordinarily re
commended for horses or mules. If
animals have difficulty in swallowing
or are unable to swallow, drenching
Is not to be attempted, as the drugs
will pass to the lungs and cause a fa
tal attach of pneumonia in the ma
jority of cases. Cathartics administer
ed hypodermically are far safer and
of quicker action than those mention
ed above and If veterinarians are
available, their services should be se
cured Immediately. Where veterina
rians are not available it is possible
that the local physician will adminis
ter such cathartics. Heart stimulants,
narcotics, etc., are' also indicated at
various stages of disease, but their
administration should be left to the
veterinarian. Posassium iodide in one
and a half dram doses should be giv
en twice dally as soon as the animal
Is able to swallow. All horses and
mules on the premises should be giv
en compete change of food.
Prevention.
Do not feed moldy corn or fodder.
If necessary to feed corn of poor
quality, ibis should be shelled and
poured into water before feeding.
Most of the damaged kernels will
Hont and can be skimmed off. The
balance should he mixed with other
grain if possible. Careful supervision
of the feeding of horses and mules
will prevent this disease."
When you want a reliable medicine
for a cough or cold take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, it can always be de
ponded upon and is pleasant and safe'
to take. For sale by all dealers.
JEW DAVID.
By Win. D S.
He was a citizen of the city down
on the Congaree. He was a vender
of Jewelry and a slick talker. He
wheedled Brother dim in buying three
hundred dollars' worth of watches and
table ware. In a few years he had
a lot of brass and black spoons. Af
ter the war his son came up to try
his hand at the peddling business. He
low my house, his horse ran away
with bis buggy, and threw David out
in the road, also his trunk of jewelry
was scattered along the road down
to the mill. I heard a noise like thun
der and ran out to see the cause. It
was his horse running over the bridge
with the buggy. We headed off the
horse. And soon we heard the most
terrible lamentation up tlx road, and
saw David coming bare headed
saying at the top of his voice: Oh! I
am ruined, all my jewelry Is gone! My
horse has torn up the buggy, and
bursted up my trunk and lost till my
goods." I called up Miller Woods and
we quieted down the boy, got up the
half bushel measures and went to
picking up his Jewelry. We found it
Ion the bridge and in the road up to
where the trunk was stove? up. We
got him a new trunk out of the store
and packed his stuff into it. He lost
but few pieces, that fell through the
floor of the bridge. We soon had him
on the road again, ready to sell our
people 18 caret gold watches and
Isterling silver spoons.

MRS. CORNWALLIS-WEST'S
UNUSUAL INSPIRATION
Ib tho spirit of William Shakspeare
guiding tho hand and brain of Mrs.
Cor n wall is- West-?
London society fa
vorite and creator
and manager of
the wonderful
"Shaksp care's
England" festiyal
held at Carle's
court?
This is general
ly believed to be
true by London
\ \ | ers. who declare
\ \ that no w o m a n
_%_I like Mrs. West.
who has made so
ciety a vocation instead of the amuse
ment business, could possibly show
the genius in management and the
business ability to put on what is no
doubt one of the biggest single amuse
ment projects ever witnessed in Eng
land.
That the Hard of Avon has Influ
enced this woman successfully to car
ry out the festival that does honor to
his memory is believed by all but the
most skeptical who have seen the ex
hibition
If Shakspeare's spirit did not influ
ence Mrs. West, what accounts for her
sudden inspiration to stage the pic
turesque scenes of Elizabethan Eng
land at the cost of hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.
Giving up her social duties and
working nine hours each day and
many extra nights organizing the big
show on speculation.
Superintending the construction of
the buildings of that period.
Poring over works of history and
devoting days upon days to the de
signing of certain costumes in order to
have tho smallest detail historically
correct.
Leaving Mayfalr and the brilliant
court of St. James after a life of Idle
luxury and plunging Into hard labor.
And, above all, showing a genius In
the work which is said by experts to
be worthy of the great poet himself. I
Mrs. West displayed such splendid
genius that many of her friends and
acquaintances believe that even with <
the knowledge of English history she
has she could not have revived those
days of tilts and jousts with such ac
curacy as she has shown.
The story Is most mysterious be
cause Mrs. West will neither deny nor ?
confirm It. This much, however, is '
known: She spent months wandering
over every inch of the ground with Its ^
Ivy-grown cottages and gay gardens
that was beloved by the groat Eng
lish poet; she spent hours visiting the
homes In which he once lived and
then took her books and read, and
meditated and talked Shakspeare with
everybody who loves the great English
dramatist and his works. It Is said
that when her work was completed
and she went back to London prior
to the pageant. Marie Coroili <3aid to
her: "It will be a wonderful succors.
It must be, for Shakspeare will bo
with you at the pageant and will dl
rcct the show, if you follow his In
struction you will be well rewarded,
for he will not leave you after the j
pageant Is over. lie is with many
great writers, inspiring them to do
their best, and he will remain with
you. If it were not for his great ge
nius and that of others who-have gone
to the great unknown there would be
few writers In the world today. It is
Shakspeare and the lesser lights who
have Inspired me and others to do
their best."
Since everybody is congratulating
Mrs. West on her splendid success,
she cannot forget the words that Ma
rie Oorelli spoke to her. She Is be
ginning to wonder if there is some
half truth in these words, and that she
may yet be aided to do j;reat works
with her pen.
FRANZ JOSEF ASKS POPE
TO STOP TURKISH WAR
In a personal letter, penned with
his own hand, the aged Emperor
Franz Josef has
made an appeal
to Pope Plus to
urge Intervention
between Italy and
Turkey and bring
about the close of
a war which his
imperial majesty
describes as a
grave danger to
the progress of
civilization. "In
stead of weaken
ing Mohametan
ism, as some imp
"pose," the emperor writes, "the war
is uniting Islam against Christiana
the world over. Morally it has been
a great mistake."
The letter was conveyed to Rome
by a special court messenger, who re
ceived a handsome gift from his holi
ness. No intimation was made to the
nunciature here, owing to the peculiar
delicaoy of the situation and the de
sire of the emperor to keep the na
ture Of the correspondence secret.
The Nuneio was Informed of
the emperor's act by a friend in
the papal secretariat of state. l!e
