From the Record, Piercoton, I ml. j Determined to rise in bis chosen ! profession as an educator, Ernest j Kemper, of PiercetoD, Ind, over- j taxed himself mentally and -physically. He was ambitious, Lis mind was always on bis woik. From early morn until late at night lie continually poured over his books. ' Burned the candle at both ends." ! Few persons, even with the strong i est constitutions, can keep up under such a strain. In addition to his studies, Mr Kemper was teaching a school some three miles from his home. Finally, his excessive study and the exposure of going to and from school in all kinds of weather undermined his health. He was taken to his bed with pneumonia and bis overworked brain almost eollapse-d. For several weeks he was seriously ill. Catarrh had taken root in his sys tern and his mind was in a delicate condition. He web sent to Colorado where he spent three months without * n > mi i.^.3 receiving aDY oeaenr. xncn ? uui-eu specialist from Cleveland treated OVERSTT'DV. him without avail, and'then a hospi- j tal in Chicago was tried, but all | absolutely without benefit. Finally his physician recommended Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and j from the first box he began to im- ! prove. When ho had taken nine j boxes he was completely cured. This j famous blood and nerve medicine had j accomplished what all bis former j expensive treatment failed to accomplish. Mr. Kemper says his catarrh j has entirely left him; he is strong again and weighs nine pounds more than he ever did. He gives the pills the entire credit. He is starting teaching again and feels abundantly j able to continue the work. To prove j mat me aioove is iruo 111 every res- i 1 pecf, Mr. Kemper made an affidavit I as follows: Subset ibod and sworn to before j me this the 10th day of September, ; 1897. Ib P. Watt, Notary Public. We doubt if these pills have an j equal in all the range of medicine, j for building up a run down and j debilitated system. Another Reason. To the Editor of the Dispatch: In my first reason I failed to state j that Mr. Efird's question shows that i 1 he is an observer of facts, a?d a i seeker after information. There are j j worthy characteristics. They rec- i otnend him for the place he has been j filling. Having already called at- j tention to the objectionable basis j upon which the dispensary law rests, i I now call attention to the fact that | the law is in conflict with Art. I, Sec. i 8, clause 8, of the Constitution of the j United States, which clause reads as j follows: The Congress shall have j power "To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several States and with the Indian tcibes." The bill known as the inter State commerce bill, rests lirmiy upon tbis constitutional warrant. So long therefore, as South Carolina or any other State of the United States, I . 11 j recognizes liquors as a lawfull article I of commerce and the power to reguj late commerce among the several ! States is vested in the Congress of I ( " I the United States. Just so long j may ministers and liquor men who j are loyal to tjie Constitution of the United States, find common ground 1 upon which to stand in opposing the dispensary. Under the dispensary ! law the authoiities of South Carolina ! have been endeavoring, in a large j measure, to exercise the functions ' * " v 1 - 1 ^ P,\nrrvo CC Thp I WMO'll UtJOHg 1U v;uuj;uoo. | federal courts have won the lasting gratitude of every lover of constitu| tional libeity, by restraining the au| thorities of South Carolina in their | attempts to regulate the commercial | relations of the several States, in the "W.

Ii has been brought face to j face with its own inefficiency. It has found that it is bankrupt among ; nations. It has realized that its pride cannot rest, on its flimsy pretext j of honor: that its spirit lias lost its j historic substance. It is the best thing, probably, that could have happened for the country which has sunk in such unparalleled decadence. For there may be time for it to begin life on a new capital, and, by industry aud patience, build itself up to better things. It will lose Cuba. It will probably lose the Philippines. It will lose most of its possessions, but it may be able to hold on to Spain, aud, holding on, may lisc again. There are many good men in Spain, but they must know that the ciisis is near. There will probably be no war, but whether there is war or not, the collapse of Spain financially will come so near to the edge that nothing but rnarcy can save it from toppling over. m.__ !- - 1-1. 1 1.: r^Ur.r.a ,WL-. lUe Jignu is nunc uu>a ness Las been, ami in the eiul good may come, although Spain must lose before it can gain. - Licks from Lick Fork.

Mr. Wyatt sa;s: 'T have been i. filleted with la grippe four times ami thelast time was worse than the first.

It completely ' demoralizes the nervous system, deranges digestion and distuibs j nearly every function of the body. Pe-ru-na is a perfect specific for this condition. It is an admirable remedy for the after effects of la grippe. For further testimonials, see book entitled ''Facts and Faces," sent free by The Pe-ru-ca Drug Manufacturing Company, Columbus, Ohio. What the South Can Do. Americas((ra.,) Times Uaion. "While many Northern dollars have been invested in Southern enterprises, it is admitted that by far the greater part of the increased wealth is due to Southern intelligence and energy. Yet this is only the beginning. The iron area of the South, 100 miles in length and 200 in width, peralleled by belts of coal and lime stone, is only worked in its vestibule, as it were. In a few years hundreds of shops, whose fires will be fed from the coal at the doors, will surround every present one. We are assured that Alabama is now laying down iron in England at piices with which the English producers say they cannot compete at any profit. One half of all the standing timber of the country is in the South. Much of it is suited to the making of the best furniture, but all has its uses, and will add enormously to the activity and wealth of this section. It is no small matter, too, that the Southern products of the soil are no longer , limited to cotton, rice, potatoes, su gar and sweet potatoes, but include early vegetables and corn, everything that is not prohibited by the climate. In the recent years experiments in fruits and other profitable products of farming have led to enterprises that must swell the riches of the land. It is not so many years since the South bought all its meat and its corn in the Xoitb, and the carrying of these, for which vast sums were paid by the impoverished people, was the main support of lines of steamers. The romantic South is *-?oco,'v>/T Sn ie tJir> immverished ... 1 South. How War is Decleared. The Code of Nations, as Some Diplo mats Understand It. St. bonis (rIobe-Democr.it. ; '-How is war declared," someone asked a statesman this week. 'TJsu | ally by a cannon shot," was the reply. This country, did go to war i once by adupting a resolution. Most ! of the fighting had biguu without j O ? ? { legislative preliminaries. The civil ! war opened with the firing on Fort j Sumter. Just how the war with ! Spain will begin, if there is one. canj not be forecast from anything in the j rules of Congress. It may be that j war with Spain has already started. ; That will be known when the court of ! inquiry on the Maine reports. If j the ship was destroyed by a torpedo, | that was an act of war, whether ! Blanco knew that the torpedo was I to be dragged against the bow of | the ship or not. If only half ? dozen Spanish officers were in tiie plot and , towed the engine of destruction to r. TIE?., 2>y?^.1>r~? tago. Prompt and 1 its place, Spain has committed the ovcitaetef war just as much aR if a gun squad bad wheeled one of the big guns of Mono Castle into position and sent a shell into the magazine of the Maine. All that the couit must do is toreport to the President that the Maine did not blow up, but was blown up. That will mean war has started. Uncle Sam must get ready to light. The chip has been knocked from his shoulder. There is nothing for him to do but to come back at his enemy. If there is to be any parleying, it 1 .^ f.?.? tinnin TUmt rtftnnh'V 7Uli&b cuilit; li Uiu j. uub wv.?i4t* J can ciVer defense, or explanation, or indemnity, or reparation. If Spnin Iocs nothing after the court reports thai the Maine was blown upr>a return blow must be struck by the United State and as quickly as the ships can move. Such is the code of nations, as some of the best diplo mats at Washington understand it. Clcsiag cf Liberty Hill School.

I The Savannah News draws a lesson from the gallant capture of the Keokuk's guns in Charleston harbor during the "late unpleasantnes." It says "Ouce upon a time during the late war a federal monitor went ashore on Morris Island and was abandoned, with her guns. A wrecking crew of Confederates went out to the wreck, cut open the terrets with cold chisels, raised the great gun out, I took it. to Fort Sumter and mounted j it, and. turned it upon its former j owners. If the big guns of the Maine j are to be abandoned by the American j wreckers they should be left in such condition as to render impossible their useful aess to anybody." Free Pill.
