It is more because or this condition of the blood that women are run down, Tired, Weak, Nervous, Than because of the work itself. Every physician says so, and that the only rem,eJy is in building up by taking a good nerve tonic, blood purifier and vitalizer like Hood's Sarsapariila. For the troubles Peculiar to Women at change of season, climate or life, or resulting from hard work, nervousness, aud impure blood, thousands have found relief and cure in Hood's v Sarsapariila The One True Blood Purifier. $1 per bottle.

Three Townships Sued. The holders of the coupons of the | Columbia, Newberry and Laurens Railroad prior to the time that the railroad was completed and received by the Railroad Commission, which I the Supreme court, in passing upon the act of 18S7, held were not to be paid, upon the ground that the original issue of bonds was unconsti- j tutional, and the act fixing the debt j upon the townships having provided ; that no interest should be paid until the road was completed and received by the Railroad Commissioners, have i brought suit in the State courts against the townships separately for the following amounts: Fork, $1,680; Broad River, $1,812; Saluda, $1,338.

This is the title of a popular inter- j national fraternity of the beneficiary order which is makiug rapid progress : throughout the country. There are : 60,000 in the United States and Can- i ada.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: Please allow us space in jour columns to expresss our heart felt thanks to our kind neighbors and friends for the generous aid extended to us since our great loss by Are on the 21st day of May, 1896, that left us homeless. May heaven's choicest blessings attend each one that contributed to our wants when we were in sore distress, and rest assured that in our gratitude we are under lasting obli?* gations. Respectfully, Dr. W. S. Keisler, Mrs. E. M. Keisler. - ... ... Batssburg Notes. To the Ed tor of the Dispatch: j News is scarce in onr section now : the weather is hot and dry, and th( | crops are needing rain badly. Th( | prospects for good harvests and rair j seem to be encouraging now, and th( I outlook is not so blue as we have ha<j in past years. The picnic at Bethlehem, Saturdaj was a pleasant affair; a large crowd a good and bountiful dinner, and good speeches by J. Walter Mitchell, Capt. J. G. Able, Rev. E. Hall and J. B. Towell. The young folks have frequent fishing end ether parties. They find it enjoyable to get wagons and other ' * 1 II 1. L L j vehicles ana an riae out iv sumc cuuj i stream and spend the day. Business in town now is quite dull and merchants and clerks find more trouble in keeping cool than waiting on the trade. Politics is somewhat quiet and from present indications we will not have a red hot campaign. All seem to be takiDg things easy though interested in a reasonable degree. The Trustees of the Batesbujg Institute have elected Prof. D. W. Daniel of Central, S. C.\ to take charge of their 6chool. The other teachers have not been elected yet. The sessions will be held in the ! commodious buildings of the late J High School. Prof. Daniel comes highly recommended and his services were sought by several institutions, but the reputation of Batesburg and the prospects of the Institute were high that he gave us the preference. Kev. T. R. Corr leaves today for Virginia to visit his parents. He will be gone two or three weeks. Nothing new in railroad circles. Work is progressing on the new road satisfactorily I presume. The fruit was not a success this season, though the small quantity shipped gave fair prices. We are to have a barbecue on the ith and hope to have speakers and people in abundance. Trust you will again favor us with your presence. Occasional. June 29,1896. Dcts from Selwood Town. To the Editor of the Dispatch. No news in our small neighborhood town at present. A certain girl in our town is quite lonely since her handsome friend, Miss Carrie Roberts, left her. TVe sincerely hope and trust that we will soon have her cheerful and lively disposition with us again. It is very hot and dry at present. The crops are suffering for rain, although there has been several nice rains; the latter part of last week, which seemed to do but little good. Several men have had watermelons of their own raising. It is quite early for them as the 4t.h of July is oft considered very early. If this crop fails there will not be any fruit, except blackberries and plums. I'm sorry for the girls, as they will not eat blackberries in any style when they think their fellow is coming. They say they make the teeth dark and +! ?<>f. will npvpr do. The rain Sunday evening made many a boy's heart sad; as some wanted to take the girls home and others wanted to call on them. All failed. There is a young man in our midst that has a bicycle; and he rides to Lexington frequently. There must be some attraction over there fcr him. Miss Louise Chapman returned home last Thursday week from Rock Hill, where she attended school. All were glad to see her and gave her a warm welcome in our hearts. There will be a week's meeting at St. Michael's church, commencing on the third Sunday in July. There will be three ministers present, Rev. Livingston, Rev. Ballentine and Rev. Deaton. We hope to have a large attendance. Persons on the Lexington side will be crossed free at Dreher's ferry. The boys tell the girls they must set the clock back as it is retiring time when they get there. The nights being so very short. Some spend the day with the girl. Try it. This town is expectiug to have a good many visitors during the July meeting. There should be more religion then than now. Mr. Deacon is a very hard working minister to save the souls of his members. We all hope to have him with us as long as possible. Miss Maggie Lowmar, the dutiful daughter of Mr. J. D. Lowman, | efficiently presides at the organ in St. Michael's church. That's right, Miss Maggie, I glory in your spunk. Hurry up girls, Leap year is nearly half gone and there are three more old bachelors iu our town, j "waiting and watching for you." j Make baste and gladden one of these | hearts. Young girls there are five ! or six young boys here yet. Spur I uVBest wishes to the Editor. Pansy. The creditors of the Exchange Bank of Batesburg have had the property of Mr. John H. Huiet at tached. Sheriff Drafts went up te j that town yesterday and made the ' levy. ?1?? ?. . . a PENCIL AND SCISSORS. . Wayside Notes Gathered Here and ?

It is thought that the corn crop hereabouts is a failure. j Voters should not neglect to register. I Every man who expects to vote this fall must register. 1 A few days last week were the ' hottest that we have ever experienced. The State campaign is drawing its weary length along. The County Alliance will meet on Fiiday. Lemons, lemons, lemons, always to be found at the Bazaar. Remember Klapman & Woods' barbecue at Red Bank Saturday. One cannot live on air bubbles or sentiment, so pay your subscription. A long engagement is what we would call a slow match. Get your job work done at this office. Best work at lowest prices. Miss May Haltiwanger has returned from a pleasant visit to relatives in Prosperity. Keep your town and people before the public by usiDg the columns of the Dispatch freely. This weather is more suited to the desert of Sahara than to this usually temperate clime. Fans are universally waved with great energy and enthusiasm these days. Mr. Charles D. Reynolds, who has been visiting his sister, Mrs. Simeon Corley, left for Boston last week. Always in season, Hopkin's Steamed Hominy (Hulled Corn.) Elegant lunch in milk. Ask your grocer for it. See schedule of the Columbia, Newberry and Laurens Railroad, in this issue, which is now in operation. Watermelons are becoming plenti ful. Who will remember the devil by presenting him with a nice, large and juicy one? Pin your tax receipt and registration certificate together, You will have to show both before you can vote. The devil don't care how often you go to church, so long as you stay outside and talk politics while preaching is go on. Announcement of candidates and personal cards MUST be paid for in advance. Don't expect us to break this rule. The people of the Fork will eat a delicious barbecued dinner at Capt. W. A. Lorick'8, on the 4th. Candidates will improve the opportunity to make some spread eagle speechs. To the regret of his many friends Dr. W. T. Brooker has decided not - ? 1- * iL.? maaa A rrtAmUftv tO IliUlit) tut) luuu xui a x-utjj_L uti \ji the House of Representatives. See his card published elsewhere. The Supreme Court has assigned five days, beginning on Monday, January 11th, for hearing appealed cases from this Circuit. Wednesday, the 13th day of that month, is assigned to this county. Several new candidates are announced this week. There is still room for many mere. Send us $ $ $ and the announcement, and we'll do the rest. 'The tendency to do wrong increases towards night," remarked a well known clergyman, and in this we think he is correct, for when Adam eat the forbidden fruit it was near Eve. Life is an endless chain and the nr\/l roerD Qrn UfciVHj \> t'CJiS, LUUlJlug auu jcoia uiv the links in that chain on earth; and every good deed, every kind word, every pure thought makes up the links of that chain in the eternal world. Charleston lacks only $100 of the $1,000 she promised to give to the Jefferson Davis monument. If it is possible that a free silver candidate on a free silver platform will disrupt the Democrat c party, it is certain that a gold bug candidate on a gold bug platform will split it to pieces. Dr. Hite and Mr. W. H. Hare of Delmar, accompanied by two friends from Summit, made a trip to Columbia last Friday on their bicycles and spent the night there, returning by way of Lexington Saturday. They paid us a short visit while here. We have received the announce meiH Oi lilt; cauuiuaujr ui a for Coronor, with which the writer forgot or neglected to send three dollars, the charge for the round trip. Send the S S $, friend, | and your announcement will be inserted. At a meeting of the trustees and patrons of the Palmetto Institute last Saturday, Mr. W. D. Schoenburg was unanimously elected principal.

Richardson is busy thrash- I ing grain. He is a hustler. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Eleazer died on the 24th ult., They have our sympathy in their ^ bereavement. I hear that J. E.

Wertz, of Newberry J College is to commence a school near Selma soon. This is right, patrons, attend to your school. Mr. "Wertz is a bright and intelligent young man. ?1* Replying to "Pern", I would say )c that I am not surprised at that feller " looking so solemn when the "girl"' a tcId that "she got three or four let- c< ters a week.'' He cut bis cards and y, got left." e< ? I asked Misses "M." and "L.'' how c< long they are before the mirror every rt Sunday morning. They could not a j tell, but I guess very lengthy judging by the hour they came into church _ last Sundaj'. Mr. "S. A." and 'L.' deny the assertion that "prayer meeting is all ^ they want," like all guilty parties i will do. (j Look out for turkey cholera. b "What "feller" is so bashful that he D tries to introduce himself by telling 1 the girls that he has a crib of corn from which he hasn't used an ear. Mr. "Wise, near Selma, has been " very sick, but I am glad to note is improving under the skillful treatment of Dr. J. W. Eargle. j "What "feller" hoed one acre of j v cotton and expected to attend preach- ! n ing at 0 o'clock and was too late? | * Can some one give a remedy that j would rid the people of that pest, I the little black and red ant?
