W The Lexington Dispatch. H| Wednesday, November 11,1903. From South Africa. New Way of Using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mr. Arthur Chapman writing from Durban, Natal, South Africa, says: ^ "As a proof that Cnambt rlain's Cough Kemedy is a cure suitable for old and ** ^ young, I pen you the following: A neighbor of mine had a child just . over two months old. It had a very bad cough and the parents did not t know what to give it. I suggested P* that if they would get a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and put some upon the dummy teat the baby was sucking it would no doubt cure the child. This they did and brought about a quick relief and cured the baby." This remedy is for ^ sale by The Ktufmann Drug Co. Gastoa Cftea&iags. To the Editor of the Dispatch: - -S J Owing to press ot DUBiness sou other matters my pen has been silent for some time in writing to the ool? umna of the good old Dispatch. Now that the famous Tillman-Gonzales trial is over, the County and State Fairs a thing of the past, the celebrated Bam am & Bailey circus + come and gone, my-be there is room for a bit of news from this part of our moral vineyard. Everything is quiet along the line save now and then the explosion of gas bubble on the Tillman trial and the bobbing up of an expectant candidate for 1904. Crops 8re about housed, corn, ^ peas, cotton is off considerably. If our farmers reach the point financially speaking to be able to hold their cotton, they could realize better prices. ** j We are pained to learn of the continued illness of Mrs. W. A. GoodL win and Mr. John S. Brooker. We || hope ere loDg they may be np and at ?w\at nf ?jvrwv v* Mr. B. E* Craft has tendered his k # resignation as K F. D. carrier and [ entered upon his studies in the ^ Peabody Normal College, at Nashville, Tennessee. We wish him an abundance of euooess in his stadies. I presume the famous boll-weevil has about died out for a while at least. We hear all sorts of oomments i upon him, and be has quite a variety t of sizes, shapes and forms. Some say he looks like the Texas flea; some say he is just like the weevil in the com; some say he looks like the Yankee bag. Mr. Editor, reckon those fellows would know 'em if they were to see 'em ? Death entered the home of Mre. David Wise recently and claimed as L his victim Mrs. Annie Morris, who I had reached more than the allotted r time of three score years and ten. She leaves to mGurn her death one j daughter, two grand children and } great grand child. Her remains were laid to rest in the Sandy Run [ w burying grounds at Gas! on. Our sympathy goes out to the bereaved ones. rr" * i u i J.D8 widowers ubve ueeu ujucu ju evidence of late and judging from appearances, it would not surprise j .

Teaching school, farming, attend- ; ing to some business affairs, serving several churches, performing domesi tic chore, helping the Misses nurse k and attend to several babies, is the fm- experience and labors of a young ; man and still he has time to read, to ! recreate, make calls and do ssveral other things of minor importance. | The little Felix family is bright, ? happy, cheerful and hopeful, living fe at home, staying in the same shack, boardincr at the same place and ? - w ? wagging along with the old world satisfied with what they have. Mr. Oscar Sturkie, od? of our Gaston merchants, has gone to the j progressive little village of Brook- j , land. Gaston's loss is Brookland's 1 L gain. We wish him much happiness { ^ and prosperity in his new home. Messrs. Gregory Spires and Lem'l. : Sightler, two of our bright young men have gone to Edgefield as students in the Edgefield college.

We hope they may have a jolly good time fiehiDg in the lakes and bays, eating oranges and pineaplee, etc. Soon onr sprightly, * handsome Treasurer will be around collecting for the public treasury, accompanied by the heroic and smiling Editor.

One of the most remarkable eases j of a cold, deep-seated on the lungs, causing pneumonia, is that of Mrs. Gertrude ?. Fenner, Marion, Ind., who was entirely cured by the use of One Minute Cough Cure. She says: "The coughing and straining so weakened me that I ran down in weight from 148 to 92 pounds. I tried a - M 1M Dumber of remedies to no avail uniu I used One Minute Cough Cure. Four bottles of this wonderful remedy cured me entirely of the cough, strengthened my lungs and restored me to my normal weight, health and strength." Sold by all druggists. Obituary.
