Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has --~. become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflied with weak kid neys. I the child urin the ates too often, if the urine scaid th fiesh or if, when the child teaches a age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of * these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and biadder trouble, and both need the same great remedy., The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized, It is sold by druggists, in, fifty cent ando o dollar sie.You ma have a serole bttle mal tree, also pamphet tels omepf swm~ igall, about it, including fnaniy of the >' hos dsr of terstiona leters reeid y 4, BinghamtonthN.

Eastman, Ga., Special.-One of the most atrocious .. crimes over committed has just been brought to light at DeBois, twelve inilo above here. The story is tht~a Richard Tucker was given a dose of stryohnine by a-farn hand. The alleged facts as reported are these: Tho farm hand was infatuated with Mrs. Tucker, who it is alleged returned his affection. To get rid of Tucker be mixed strychnine with some peach brandy. Mr. Joel Horn, while visiting Mr. Tuc.ker, complained of feeling badly, and Mr. Tucker gave him it drink of the brandy. Mr. Horn died within an hour. Having failed in accomplishing the end aimed at, the forni hand fixed some capsules with the strychnine, which were given Mi . Tucker on his complaint of foeling badly. Mr. Tucker died soon after. Upon their arrest and incarcera tion in the county jail Mrs. Tucker and the farm hand accused each other of the killing. Public feeling is at fever heat, and but for the timfiy arrival of Sheriff Rogeis, the farm hand would have been summarily dealt with, and there is strong talk of lynch.. ing. Drs. J. D. Herrman and J. B. Clark cut out Tucker's stomach and carried it to Atlanta for analy sis by the state chemist, and rela. tives wish an analysis made of Joel Horn's stomach. All the parties are of good fam ilies. A special term of Dodge Super. ior court will probably convene to try the cases, as the public de. mand it. Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhoea. "About six years ago for the first time n n.y life I had a sudden add severe at ack of diarrhoea," says Mrs. Alice Alil er, of Morg-n, Texas. "I got tempor try relief, but it came back again and tgaintand six long years 1 have suffered nore misery and agony than agony than I can tell. It was worse than death. Sly husband spent hundreds of dollars ror physicians' prescriptions and treat mient without avail. Finally we moved to Bosque county, our present home, and one day I happened to see an adver tisement of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testinon ial of a man who had been cuied by it. The case was so similar to my own that I[concluded to try the remedy. The re-. mit was wonderful. I could hardly realize that I was weoll again, er believe it could be so after having suffered so long, but that one bottle of medicine, costing but a fewv cents, cured me."

"Temporarily insane from the excessive use of cigarettes," a Buf. falo man committed suicide by jumping off a train going 60 miles an hour. le had more wisdom than the vast majority of his class-ho know when and how to jump. Blind is the man who does not recognize the great grouind sdell throughout South Carolina in favor of law and order. But a small fraction of the Deople are in sympathy with these lynchings and murders. Now would be the time for a strong personality not only to perform a sacred duty but to win popular applause by vigor ous action. Gov. Heyward makes this state ment: "I regret to say that, though I have waited several days for oflicial notice regarding this lawless act, ..not one report has reached me through oflicers of the law." He refers to the murder of Head in Aiken county. As the law requires these reports to be promptly made, it is evident that the law has been violated. This would be an excellent opportunity to lot the officers of the law under stand that they will be required to do their duty. * * * As it is unlawful to 'take, kill or sell," or 'cause to be taken, killed or sold or exposod for sale," any mocking bird as well as other song and insectivorous birds in South Carolina, should it not be unlaIwfUl for any person to have such birds in captivity? Those persons who purchase such birds are responsible for the breaking of the law against robbing of nestsor trapping. The birds are atolen from the public; those who buy and hold them imprisoned arc, morally, the receivers of stolen goods. According to the report of the auditor of the treasury, the collec tor of the port at Albermarlo, N. 0.. receives a salary of $1,000 while the receipts of customs at that port have been $1.80 a year for the last five years. At Beau fort, N. C., the average annual receipts are $46.80 and the collector's salary Is $1,000 with *404 in fees, and the collector has two deputies. These are only samples, as it is said other ports make little better showings. Everybody seems to bo after put ting his hand deep into 'Uncle Sam's pocket. WVe find ourselves compelled to dissent for once from an opinion expressed by the Kershaw Era one of the county papars which has opinions all of its ownis, and ex.. presses thern fearlessly. Trho Erai commends Judge Gage for requir ing~ witnesses to put on their coats before coming into court to testify. "There is too prevalent an idea,'" says The Era, "that the courts are somewhat of a makeshift (possibly not without some reason) and the sooner this idea is gotten rid of the better it will be for the cause of justice." While we might com mend the action of Judge Gage (on the same grounds as The Ena, yet there is another view. We would, for the cause of justice, reverse his ruling and require that every wit ness and juror should appear in his shirt-sleeves and that their hip pockets and the contents thereof should be exposed to view. We would extend the ruling to the gen. tlemen of the bar and are confident that if required to remove their coats in the presence of the judge several lawyers would be found with pistols in their pockets. Certainly, according to reports, such would have been the result during, the recent session of the criminal court held in Columbia.

The Southern Railway has com. pleted the work of clearing up the wreckage of 13 cars and an engine which ran away on the heavy grade up Saluda Mountain last week and were almost annihilated. The train of cars after gaining a fright ful speod left the track and landed in a valley some distance from the main line. A side track was built down to the wreck and a large wrecking engine drew the do railed freight engine back on the track. One car of tho train which did not leave the track was loaded with eggs and, strange to say, few of them were broken. The runa way was attributed to the fact that the air brakes 'had been tampered with. When the crew saw their danger they jumped and the train, rushed on down grade for severail miles before leaving the track. - Spartanburg Journal.
