WEDNESDAY, OCT. 19,1904.
The State fair to be held in
Columbia next week will probably
be the beat ever held.' Laj aside
business for a few day? and at
tend the fair. A person becomes
narrow acd contracted by follow
ing the same routine of duties day
after day. On the other hand,
one's horizon is broadened by an
occasional sight-seeing trip.
Annual sessions of the legisla
ture have proven to be very ex
pensive to the tax payers of the
state. Why not try bi-ennia1 ses
sions ? At the approaching elec
tion the people will say by their
ballots which they prefer, and BO
far as our observation extends bi
ennial sessions will have an easy
victory.
In this issue .we publish the
official notices of the Federal and
State elections, together with the
names of managers who have been
duly appointed by the commis-1
sinners of elect iou. it is the duty j
of every voter to read carefully
the notice of the State election so
as to be able to vote intelligently
upon the constitutional amend
ments.
The recent unfortunate occur-1
renee that has brought shame and
reproach upon the entire county
ls not the first time that those]
who oversee the chaingangs have
been charged with cruelty. The
death of Wade Hattley, if it oc
curred from inhuman treatment,
is the culmination of a series of
cruelties. The people will expect i
the grand jury and solicitor to do I
their duty in the premises, i. e.,
make- a full and thorough inves
tigation-of the matter. The pub- j
lie eye is upon them.
Cold Spring.
: In the very depths of yourself j
dig a grave. Let-it be like some
forgotten spot to which no path
leads, and there, in the eternal
silence, bury the wrongs that you
have suffered. Your heart will
eel_a8 if a weight had fallen from
it, and a divine peace will come]
to abide with you.-Sel.

King's New Life Pills and she got

Some Seasonable Advice.
It may be a piece of superflu
ous advice to urge people at this
season of the year to lay in a sup
ply of Chamberlain's'' Cough
Remedy, lt is almost sure to be
needed before winter is over, and
much more prompt and satisfac
tory results are obtained when
taken as soon as a cold is contract
?e and before it has become set
tled in the system, which can only
be done by keeping the remedy al
band. This remedy ie so widely
known and so altogether good that
no one should hesitate abaut buy
iny it in preference io any. other.
It is for sale by ail druggist aud
medicine dealers.
How to Cure Corns and
Bunions.
First, soak the corn or bunion
in warm water to soften it^ then
pare it down as closely as possible
without drawing blood and apply
Chamberlain's Pain Balm, twice
daily, rubbing vigorously for five
minutes at each application.- A
corn plaster should be worn a ferr
days to protect it from the shoe.
As a general liniment for.sprains,
bruises, lameness and rheumatism
Pain Balm is unequaled. For sale
by all druggist and medicine
dealers.
A Judicious Inquiry.
A well known traveling man
who visits the drug trade says he
has often heard druggists inquire
of customers who asRed for a
cough medicine, whether it was
wanted for a child or for an adult,
and if for a child they almost in
variably recommend Chamber*
Iain's Cough Remedy. The rea
son for this is that they know
there is no danger from it and
that it always cures. There is not
the least danger in giving it, aud
for coughs, colds and croup it is
unsurpassed. For sale by all
druggist and mediciue dealers'.
Robbed The Grave.
A startling incident, is narrated
by John Oliver of Philadelphia,
as follows: "I was in an awful
condition. My skin was almost
yellow, eyes suuken, tongue coated
pain continual!; in back and
sides, no appa: i to, growing weaker
day by day. Three physicians had
given me up. Then I was advised
to use Electric Bittere; to my
groat joy, the first bottle made a
decided improvement. I con
tinued their uBe for three weeks,
and am now a well man. I know
they robbed the grave of another
victim." No one should fail to
try them. Only 50 cents,guaran
