Nervous People often wonder why their nerves are bo weak; why they get tired so easily; why they start at every slight but udden sound; why they do not sleep naturally; why they have frequent headaches, indigestion and nervous Dyspepsia jK The explanation is simple. It is found In that impure blood which is continually feeding the nerves upon refuse instead of the elements of strength and ! vigor. In such condition opiate and nerve compounds simply deaden and do not cure. Hood's Sarsaparilla feeds the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digestion, in the true remedy for all nervous troubles. Hood's T Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier. $1 per bottle. Prepared only by C. I. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass. u ,, cure Live* Ills; easy to MOOa S HllIS take, easy to operate. 25c.

To secure good health, the blood should be kept pure and vigorous by the use of Aver's Sarsaparilla. When the vi al fluid is impure and sluggish,' there can be neither health, strength, nor ambition.

Mr. Willian Guignard, son of Mr John Guignard, having graduated at West Point this year, has been ap pointed Lieutenant of Artillery iD the fourth brigade U. S. A. The high water in the Saluda caused the cables at all the ferries in the county to break,with the exception of that at Dreher's. Or this at least is the information we have received.

Jacob Wike conducti ing the services. She was nearly ninety-four years old, and the mother of some of our oldest citizens and was generally loved and respected, j The Comptroller General has finished making out the pension roll. There are 78 pensioners in this county, divided up in classes, as follows: Class A,?; B, 12: IstC, 29; 2dC, 37. The latter class are widows. The number is so great in the State that the one hundred thousand dollars appropriated will be prorated and pensioners will not get the amounts intended by the act.

This matter of registration is important and should under no circumstance be neglected When you leave home to get your certificate don't forget to put the amount you are due the Dispatch in your pocket , pThis is equally important i ?.. Saturday's Barbecues. We are informed that the barbecue of Murdock and Summers, near the old Stuck homestead, in the Fork, last Saturday, was largely attended and was an enjoyable affair. Candi dates Mitchell for the Senate and Counts for Supervisor addressed the people. Ofcber candidates were I resent and got in some good work in their own behalf. The Peak Guards was out in force and contributed largely toward the enjoyment of the crowd. A splendid dinner was furnished to which ample justice was done. Levi Lowman's barbecue, near Wyse's ferry, last Saturday, was brought off successfully. The crowd was not large but what was lacking in numbers was more than made up by the happy and pleasant humor of those present. The dinner was pre pi rid under the personal supervision of James E. Shealy, and was served in bis best and most tempting style. Candidate D. F. Efird for the House was the orator of the day and made a ringing speech on the issues of the day, w hich was well received. Candidate Dreher for the same position give a pleasant little talk. Candidate Harman satisfactorily explained the nature of the railroad tax, and the duties of his office. Messrs Spann, Press. George, Luther Smith, Sam. P. Shumpert, E. L. AViugard, J. E. B. McCartha, Thos. Caughman, said a few words as to their position on public questions. Mr. E. T. Rauch was the rnastor of ceremonies. Crops in that secti n are looking fine and the prospects for an abundant 1 harvest are bright. To the People of Lexington County. Having been solicited by some of , my friends, who have already placed my name before the voters of this county,and after mature deliberation, I have determined to enter the race for the office of Sheriff of this county.

Help the Ladies. It is thought by some that the barbecue at White Rock, on July 25th, for the benefit of Mt. Vernon church has been postponed. This is a mistake.
