What To Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in coring rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes. You may have a sample bottle and a book that tells all m about it, both sent f ree by mail. Address Dr. Sskjgitj hamton, N. Y.

The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, December 27, 1905. Why I am Not a Prohibitionist. It is Dot any unusual thing to meet a man who to ail outward appearance stands for sobriety, but he is not a prohibitionist. He says many things that sound and seem good, but when he airs himself on the liquor traffic be shows all maDner of inconsistency. He says I am not a prohibitionist, first, because some of the leaders of the prohibition movement are drunkards aod liquor sellers. Now, granting that he is correct in this statement it does not to-low that be is wise or good because he objects to * - * _ n.i _ _t_ pronmuion lor 101s reason. ine sick need tbe physician. Shall we condemn doctors and physic because they are sought by the sick? The folly of doiDg so would be no greater than to oondemQ prohibition or the efforts being made in its behalf because some of its advocates are or have been drunkards or liquor dealers. Our objector is or claims to be a Christian. Has it ever occurred tc him that to be consistent he would have to abandon Christianity the very moment he saw or had reason to believe that sinners were seeking the light and blessings of Christianity. Is he ready to do thai? If so, he is a consistent man; but his consistency has forced him to abandon the benefits of Christ. Second, he objects to prohibition because it does not prohibit. I? he correct in this statement? Let the triumph of Japan over Russia answer this question. It man tha nrrthihirinii nf 1 nfcoxiflftn tfi VUV VWtVAbtVM w- ?? ? among the Japanese troops which prohibited the success of the Russian troops. Russia, a representative of the white race, worshipping, it may be said, at the shrine of "beauty and bottles," by her defect on the field of batie answers our obj-ctor that prohibition does prohibit. The Christian world bas beeu put to shame by the heathen. .For centuries the Christian world has been making experiments with licenses, government ownership, and "dcxology" saloons, while the heathen have beet crying "stop drinking intoxicants and stop selling them " Ail Europe and America are now waking up, and the thought spreads that the "world's government now forming at Hagore will grow the acorn of international prohibition into a tree whose leaves shall be for the healing of all nations." In the face of all the facts now before the observant mind, the man who relies up do the plea that prohibition does doc prohibit, advertises the fact that be is blind or base. But for the third reason we hear our objector saj: "men have always drank and they will continue to drink." Does that prove that it is right and best for them to so do? This objection if it proves anything proves too j much. No good or wise man will rely upon it. See where it would j lead. The first boy born into the world committed murder. No one, except possibly our objector would, fmm that, fan}: insist that all men should have the right to commit murder from their choice. To be a prohibitionist means to get away from intoxicants. If the taste is too great for our objector I leave him with the reminder of Mr. Wolley, that "election day is the crosp-examioation of ;the prayer meeting." Joab Edwards.
