ONLY ONE DAY
LEFT IN OFFER
OF EXTRA VOTES
There remains only one more day
of the last extra vote feature in The
Times-Recorder’s Big Subscription
Drive. This last feature, which closes
at 10 o’clock Thursday night, is the
New Subscription feature, in* which
every new yearly subscription to
either the daily or the weekly gets 50,-
000 extra votes in addition to the
regular last period votes. There are
no club votes offered for the re
mainder of the campaign. This 50,000
offer for every new yearly subscrip
tions also holds true,,on those turn
ed in heretofore during the campaign,
and all candidates have 50,000 extra
votes coming to them for every year
of new subscription or its equivalent
These votes will be issued and ready
for each candidate when they call
Thursday. No votes extra on new
subscriptions will be issued after
Thursday, but the campaign office will
remain open Thursday evening for
the convenience of those who are not
in position to' call during the day.
Each candidate should bring or know
exactly how many new ballots she
has on new subscriptions, in order to
to be sure that the ballot she receives
is correct for the amount due her.
The Second Payment feature, how
ever. in which 50,000 extra votes are
also issued to every year of second
paid subscriptions, continues until the
last minute of the drive. A second
paid subscription receives all that
the first one got. both of the regular
votes and special club votes, accord
ing to the period in which the first one
w~as paid. There is no doubt that a
number of candidates will avail them
selves of this last minute opportunity
to get a huge number of votes. The
offer is. of course, fair and open to
all, because the first subscription does
not necessarily have to have been
paid to the person receiving the sec
ond, but just as surely as it is a sec
ond payment and receives all the
votes that the first one received. If
the first subscription was in tile first
period and got 40,000 regular votes
and special club votes at the rate of
400,000 to $20,00, the second paid year

“Bite” in tobacco comes either from
poor leaf or wrong “ripening.”
We use for VELVET only the finest Kentucky
Burley. But we don’t stop there.
We put millions of pounds of this tobacco away
every year, in wooden hogsheads, for Nature to
patiently ripen and mellow.
There are quicker ways, but they leave some
teeth in.

‘Who knows but that our mission may prove to be the unlocking of the casket which will give independ
ence to Ireland. If the Peace Con ference does not recognize the delegat es of the Irish nation we shall ask the
right to present their cause and if they refuse to hear us there is. nothing for us ‘o do. but to come home
and let the people here know that the pledges have not been carried out.” This was the declaration of
Frank Walsh, until recently associa ed with former President Taft on the Labor Board, just before he left
for Paris with Michael Ryan, of Philadelphia, and Edward F. Dunne, formerly governor of Illinois. They
went as delegates of the Irish Race convention held in Philadelphia. The fourth man in the photograph (at

—would also get 160,000 # votes.
It is hoped to have the judges for
the big close decided on by Thursday
and the announcement made that day.
Those who serve as judges are to be
selected as absolutely impartial, and
connected in no way with any candi
date. In the appointing of the
judges, as with everything else in the
campaign, the management cf The
Tine.‘.--Recorder will carry the idea
of fairness in every detail to the very
end. The management believes that the
ladies who receive the prizes will be
able to make the Btateam.it t rat they
won on the merits of their work in
seeming new subscriptions .payments
on old accounts and coupons, and not
by spending money.
The sealed ballot box will be in
place in the campaign office, and
ready to receive ballots early Satur
day morning. The box will remain
<-e< led, and will be opened only by 'he
judges, just before the count is be
gun at. 7 p. m. sharp. Every one, of
course, has up to that time to vote,
lut votes received after 7 p. m Gatur
day, April 26, will be 'vorinmss. The
count in all probability will consume
an hour to two, at the end of wiii< h
the winners will be aiiueuiicod to the
ai.'ious gathering. The priz? ballots
will first be announced, the smallest
corning first, and the largest la<t. The
prizes will also be arnomil in the
same manner, the smallest first and
th r largest last.

Southeast Wants 14
Ships Given 5 Ports
That the Americus Chamber of
Commerce is behind the request of
the South Atlantic Maritime associa
t.'.-.n for 114 ships allotted to the
Southeastern ports to carry on trade
with Isatin America, is the substance
of a telegram to be sent tonight by
the chamber through its secretary,
Jo. eph Perkins, to Edward N. Hurley,
chairman of the I'nited States Ship
ping corporation. The message is
timed to reach Mr. Hurley before the
opening of the hearing in Washington
Thursday on the request.
Governor Dorsey was asked by Ma
thew Hale, president of the Maritime
association, to attend this meeting,
but he will be unable to be present, as
ho is on a tour of the state with the
special tax equalization commiss on.
The principal ports from which
these ships will ply, in the event they
are obtained, will be Wilmington. N.
C., Charleston, S. C,; Brunswick and
Savannah, Ga., and Jacksonville, Fla.
A number of ships are wanted by
the Maritime association to be used in
trade with the West Indies and Cen
tral and South America. Since the
war’s demands on shipping space are
being gradually reduced, the five
ports of the southeast will insist that
the commerce of these ports be re
stored .

Do you feel weak and unequal to the
work ahead of you? Do you still cough
a little, or does your nose bother you?
Are you pale? Is your blood thin and
watery? Better put your body into
shape. Build strong!
An old, reliable blood-maker and
herbal tonic made from wild roots and
barks, is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery. This “nature remedy” comes
in tablet or liquid form. It will build up
your body, cure your cold, and protect
you from disease germs which lurk every
where. One of the active ingredients of
this temperance alterative and tonic is
wild cherry bark with stillingia, which is
so good for the lungs and for Roughs;
also Oregon grape root, blood root,
stone root, Queen’s root, all skilfully
combined in the Medical Discovery.
These roots have a direct action on the
stomach, improving digestion and assimi
lation. These herbal extracts in the
“Discovery” aid in blood-making, and
are best for scrofula. By improving the
blood they aid in throwing off an attack
of influenza.
Catarrh should be treated, first, as a
blood disease, with this alterative. Then,
in addition, the nose should be washed
daily with Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy.

DATE LIMIT FOR
JOINING RURAL
CLUBSEXTENDED
Because of bad roads due to weath
er conditions, and because of the pre
cafence of influenza during the win
ter months, the period of enrollment
for members of the Canning and Poul
try Clubs, and for women as home
demonstrators in dairying, gardening,
and poultry work has been extended
by the Department of Agriculture un
til May 1.
Those enrolling after this time are
eligible for County Fair prizes( but
not for State Fair prizes.
Any boy or girl over eleven years
of age, and any woman in the county
wishing Instruction in any of these
lines may obtain them by giving their
Agent, Mrs. Olin Williams. By so
doing they obligate themselves to
nothing except to follow, as nearly as
possible, instructions sent out by the
Department of Agriculture. In re
turn they get the benefit of the scien
tific knowledge of specialists in the
form of circular letters, bulletins, and
actual demonstations in the home.
Where this study is carried on, the
results are said to be always better
home economic conditions, and the
highest market prices for produce be
cause of higher grade products.
Over one hundred girls in Sumter
county have already begun their work
in these lines.
