Mrs L A It hem has been sick during the past week, but we are glad to report her much improved. Mts B F Brockinton is quite sick at this writing, but we hope she will speedily recover.

They have been visiting in IMantersville. Miss Ethel Nesmith, a popular young lady of Dock, lias returned from a visit among lriends in Darlington county. Our boys are jubilant over their victory in the recent game of ball with Black River. The game was interesting from beginning to end, especially was it. >-o to the River boys. Mingo went to the ground to play ball and she did play "great ball." At the end of the ninth inning the score stood 5L' to S in favor of Mingo. Une thing we can say for Mingo is that she never borrows players unless she is forced into it bv necessity. If she can't stand on her own feet, she is willing to take defeat manfully. Base Ball Or anil There are good many tnen in the pulpit who would not be there iftney had not misunderstood the Lord. Owing to over-crowding and bad ventilation the air of the schoolroom is often close and impure, and teachers and pupils frequently suffer from lung throat toubles. To all such we would say, try Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. For coughs, colds, weak lungs and bronchial troubles no other remedy can compare with it. Sayc A C Freed, supcrintedent of schools, PralriePepot Ohio: "Having some knowledge of the efficacy of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, I have no hesitancy in recommending it to all who suffer from cough, lung troubles, <ic."

Fill a hot lie or common glsss with urine and let it stand twenty four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it it posit iveevidence of kid ney trouble. Too frejnent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order WHAT TO JO.
