Wesson Snowdrift Oil
Hit that indefinable something which consli. p?
?lutea "class" and elegance. As a salad
dressing, it gives the most distinctive and I (
luperior results. As a shortening, il ?ur- _
passes lard, and adds to your Icod a pure,
htalthl'i! vegetable oil instead ol indigestible
animal lats. For (rying il equals ll e iincst Jersey
butter, and cooks thoroughly without charging the
article with grease.
No matter how you use Wesson Snowdrilt Oil,
it contributes a piquancy ol ilavor, a relish to the
appetite, and a bcncliri.il. hcalthlul inilucncc which
hu -ever Leon attained in any household article.
It has inspired many imitations, which hope to
prolil by ''over-persuading'' the purchaser. Always

Crest Work to lie Dime for Spartan,
burg Schools iiy Physicians.
Spart anbury Journal.
Every child In the public schools in
this city, about 3,000 <>t' them, will he
given a thorough medical examina
tion by a oommlttee consisting of Dr.
Rosa 11. Grnnt, Dr. A. 11. Pike and Dr.
.1. 11. Allen. The examination of the
school Children will begin on nexl
Monday morning, and these physicians
win continue their won. until every
child thai is enrolled will have been
given a careful and thorough examina
tion and a record oi bis or her condi
tion taken.
The physicians who will do this
work will not receive any pay tor their
services, but do it as a help to the
schools and to each individual child
that attends the public schools.
The committee will examine the
children by grades. A minuate and
thorough examination of their eyes,
cars. nose, throat, chest and their
general condition will be' mnde by
these three loyal and patriotic physi
cians, and two records made; one will
be kept as a record ror the school,
and another will be sent to the parents
of the child. This will set forth in a
brief way any defects that may exist
in the condition of the children and
will also offer ?uggesttons to the par
ents as to how best to treat the child
and remedy the organs that are In
efficient. The parents of the children
will not be required to have the chil
dren treated and if they ?ee fit they
will be at perfect liberty to have Them
remain in the schools and study and
do their best in their imperfect phy
sical condition and there will be noth
ing done by the school officials to have
the children treated.
In speaking with a reporter this
morning one of the tneinfrers of this
committee said that there are many
children in iSie schools of the city
who perhaps uve seeing out of but one
eye er are hearing out of but one ear
and the parents of this child are ab
solutely ignorant of Die defects exist
ing. This physician said that in the
examinations that would lie made they
expected to Had many such cases as
this and that ibis was 'lie principal
reason that the County Medical socie
ty had taken up the work ami become
so much Interested In it. As the chil
dren are being educated in the class
rooms, so will the parents be educated
about the physical condition ol the
children. This person also went on to
say that the committee would be amp
ly repaid for their services 11 they
were the means of Improving the gen
eral health of the children of the < ity
to even a small degree.
The children In the ecIiooIh of Sene
ca were examined In this manner last
year and the revelations made by the
physicians were nstontshlug In ninny
instances. There were some who could
positively see oul of but one eye and
there was not the slightest idea in the
minds of the parents the! anything
whatever was the matter. This pro
gressive little city in South Carolina
lias perhaps started a movement that
will spread throughout the entire State
This year both SptU'tauburg and Slim
ier followed in Seneca's footsteps and
their children are to bo examined al
so.
It is a big job that confronts the
committee and will require a meat
deal of time, which these physicians
could he spending to more profitable
advantage were not they so Interested .
In this work among me children, it
Will take about ten minutes to ex
amine each of the children.

SomctIifutr About tltc Side Trackage
Situation in I.aureus.
The following statement is publish
ed at the request of Mr. Hugh 10. Gray,
the same 1 >?*inu address "To the Hon
orable Railroad Commissioners ot
South Carolina:"
When the Georgia Central Railroad
had charge of the roads from Green
wood to Spartanburg ami Greenville
Via 1.aureus. H. E. Gray and dray oi
Sullivan had this company to put in
side tracks lor their use in handling
and storing building material and fer
tilizer, and general merchandise. R.
II. Hudgens, at this trine, owned the
ware house property where the Lau-.
rens Bonded Ware House is located,
and this ware house was used for stor
ing cotton, fertilizers and other goods
by Mr. Hudgens. At this time, each
one of these locations for ware house
purposes had good and sufficient side
tracks for the mutual benefit of ware
house and railroads. The Laurens
Ware House Company bought from
Mr. Hudgen? his ware house property,
and built what is now known as the
Laurens Bonded Ware House Compa
ny, in the get-up of this company.
Mr. W. G, Childs was a stock-holder
in s: id company. Owing to great dis
satisfaction on the part of the farm
ers of our county in reference to tin
handling of their cotton with only one
weigher end one ware house, we put
in the property now known as the
Merchants' and Farmers- Ware House,
company lor the purpose of giving
belter satisfaction in the weighing
and storing of cotton and other goods
to all parties interested. Since then
our roads have combined, and a sys
tem of side tracks put in that makes
it very Inconvenient for the Mer
chants' and !?';.miers' Bonded Ware
Hons company to handle their busi
ness at all. Later on Mr. Scruggs.
Agent at Laurens depot, notified me
that tiny would not put cars in to
move cotton and other goods. We
advised with our attorney on this sub
ject and it seemed that the anti-trust
law of South Carolina was our only
remedy for this stai<- of affairs at Lau
rens. 1 notified Messrs. Childs and
cievi land, Presidents of the two roads
at 1.aureus, that this law would be
our remedy in case refusal to put
in cars for us, and since this notice
we get curs in a manner that makes it
very unsatisfactory to us.
This system, since the combination
of our railroads at Laurens, makes it
an abortion af all justice and fairness
to us, and we respectfully ask your
honorable Hoard to examine into the
situation at Laurens, as to railroad
facilities, and see that we get equal
privileges under the law with any at
Laurens In our line of business,?that
of general storage of cwtton and other
goods, such hk fertilizers,?and that
no combination shall deprive us of
these equal privileges under the law
of South Carolina and of the United
States.
To combine the railroads at Lau
rens. sifter our people have voted bonds
to get competition, is Trust No. 1.
Then, to pn! In the present system of
side tracks and phut us off, is Trust
So. 2. Wt want cur friends of Lau
rens to remember our efforts to give
every man the rig! t to weigh his cot
! ton wher e he pleased, and not to for
get that we are still in the tight to see
that this privilege is continued In
; good faith, and that we need our
fiieror and theli patronage to bold
