What to Co.
There is comfort la the knowledge so
Dften expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's SwampRoot,
the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
sf the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
vine 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,
[f you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists in 50c. and $1. sizes.

HEAET SICK."
Mr. Editor: The following ite* was
clipped from the Southport Standard
which was seat to me by a iriead. It
will interest some of your readers.
Some years ago when strnggliag to
get this railroad through Winnsboro,,
I expressed the hope that, If we failed
inthe effort, Columbia and Chester,
both having several railroads, might
be built ap rapidly, as il was better to
be a suburb of a city th&R a half dead
town on a ainglo line of railroad. We
didn't get the railroad and the wish
is materializing.
Still it is gratifying to see a few
gleams of light shining in the dim
horiion, ia spite of the moss-baeks
who were eever enlisted in any eater
priie that would enrich the town aad
eounty, except when tfaey cenld see
big money in it dtrccthj for themselves
and the saphaads who mistake change
for progress. It is consoling also to
know tkat "while there is lite there is
hope.", G-. H. MeMaster.

Mr. E. ?. Stevens, Sonthport, N. C.
Sir:?I hare the pleasure of stating
that I am laying mir plans to onild a
railread from the ebal field* west of
Kncxvilleto Soathport, 2f. C., and at
the same time to make it a link in a
chain ef railroads from Omaha, Neb.,
to Sontbpert, H". C-, via Knoxville,

river at Louisiana, Mo., and the Ohio
river at Oweneboro, Ky.

25 miles west of KnoxfiJle, this noakiog
the railroad save on coais 580

I project the line to pass throagb
South Carolina via Marion, Florence,
Camden, Winnsboro and Greenville.
The liae could be taken through South
Carolira via Baaueitsville, Cbeeterf

Which route will fnrniah tbe
most local traffic as well as thrcugh
traffic to Sonthport?
UftilrnaH hnilriina- ?u * hnainPiBH. and
| not a sentimental affair, rmt for all
t&at, a railroad which has the friendskip
of the people throngk whose land*
it rnns, will, everything else being
equal, bare a material advantage over
a corporation which has the enmity of
the people.
Respectfully submitted,
