Christmas News from Lewiedale. To the Editor of the Dispatch: THE CHRISTMAS TREE. On Friday night before Christmas was a most delightful occasion. This tree was gotten up by Prof. L. A. Sease and his school, and. was loaded with presents, consisting of a candy and apple treat from the professor for each one of his pupils, besides many other presents for the children by patrons and friends. The tree was a veritable beauty and the exercise most wise and befitting. The program was short, consisting ? of six recitations by pupils selected from the different grades, interspersed with music by the Hall Band, announcements, distributions of presents and a jolly all round good time for all. SUNDAY CHRISTMAS SCENES. At the usual hour Rev. T. F. Rivers was in the pulpit of the Baptist church with the usual congregation before him, his theme being The Imperfectness of Ojr Knowledge of Heaven. Without purpose to outline or comment upon his discourse, the writer will refer to only one proposition near the close which was: "Many who now have bright hopes of heaven will fail to enter there." In illustration, the speaker related t le story of the soldier from the mountains of North Carolina. H jw, with joyful heart and bouyant hopes, he, with some comrades, set out for their homes and loved ohes; how, at length, he came near his home, and at last in sight, but there was a river between him and his dear family and home, and the night was dark, soon they came to the river, swollen by recent rains, but the boat was on the opposite side and no boatman at hand. All their shouting and hal1 ? ^ ?>">!! Tno lna f.. n ao Kjk u\j avau. Jkus. vyww man did not bear; the boatman did not come. He could see the light upon his offn hearthstone up the mountain side and almost hear the merry prattle of his happy children whom he had not seen in gome time. How could he stay here all night? He could not, he would plunge into the rushing stream and risk getting to the otherside and then to his fimily. His friends pointed out the danger and persuaded him to wait till morning, but he would not listen. % So he rashly plunged into the mad, rushing stream. *'Mr. MeGrady's house is on fire!" rang in the shrill, excited voice of Mrs. M, as the church door flew open and she bounded in. The preacher stopped short and in a moment the congregation was all astir . while many were making their way after Mr. and Mrs. ? ? .1 t i n i Mcuraay to tne Durning nouse. x>ui the hoase did not barn, the preacher did not finish that story. Rev. Evans Hsll succeeds Rev. T. F. Rivers as Pastor of the Baptist church here, beginning his work next Sunday. Rev. D. A. Lewis, who has rented Dr. L. A. Griffiths residence, moved in last week. Well?I'll stop or to the waste basket Til go?but permit me in conclusion, to wish A Happy New Year to the Dispatch, its editor and ? corps, and both friend and foe. Josiah. January 2,1899. Batesburg Notes. To the Editor of the Dispatch: January 2,1899. The New Year came in the lap of a cold wave and the chilling blast remind us as severe winters oft passed through and how we hate bitter weather, and how we suffer from cold and wish it would turn warm, buf so far we have been spared the pain of big snows or severe freezes?the latter especially makes our flesh quiver to even think of it?but severe cold has its redeeming features and we trust that the germs of disease will be thoroughly frozen out aDd the health of our people improved, and that will be cause of rejoicing all around. The raiDy fall was a set back on the sowing of grain and many were disappointed by not being able to put in all the wheat and oats they wished, but they are finishing up now and the prospects are good for grain next year and we hope ho disaster will befall us and we will be in some measure independent, if cotton is only five cents per pound. The Christaj^ Holidays were delightfully spent. We had peace, plenty and harmony, and with these three things, we should be contented. We have no drunken brawls and King Alcohol was very little in evidence, and we are inclined to the view that the moral tone of the people is good, notwithstanding the opinion of some that we are ne*r the line of perdition. Every succeeding Xrnas we see less of the effects of whiskey and if the improvement goes on for a few years I feel that pro hibition will come of its own volition. Our community suffers very much inconvenience by not having a resident Magistrate. It is ten miles to the nearest one and we have thiity stores and a population of about a thousand, and we have a number of petty thefts that could be punished if it did not necessitate an additional expenditure, for instance, should a nair of shoes, a nitr. or a few chickens r? > - it obe stoleD, the whole amount involved would not be more than a couple of dollars, then to arrest the culprit, we have to first hunt up the thief and then hire a turnout which costs two dollars and go ten miles and back, and a loss of an entire day from business in order that the arrest can be made and by that time frequently the culprit has made way with either himself or the evidence of his guilt and so nothing is accomplished. We have a great many tramps and others incident to the two railroads and they should have the terror of the law to keep them straight. AmoDg the visitors to our town during the holidays were U. X. Gunter, Jr., Esq , Assistant Attorney General of the State. X has made a phenominal rise in politics and we confidently look forward to higher stations in the near future that he will fill to his credit and the pride of his Batesburg friends. No Lexington boy has probably ever attaind such prominence at such an early age, and it appears that in whatever place he occupies he wears the * 11 Donors wtn. The health of our town is good and all are in bright spirits. The youDg folks are having their evening sociables and innocent amusement is the order of the day. W. S. Hite is absent to your town in attendance on the County Board, and I presume the old officials will wind up their affairs and yield to the new guardians of our interest . Happy New Year to the Dispatch I and its constituency. Occasional. A man must reap as he sows. If he sows 1 H' * * !? ? l.t- Tf 1_ ..

It is a daily and hourly marvel that men will recklessly neglect their health, when a moment's thought should tell them that ! they are courting death. It lies in most every man's power to live to a green old I age. If a man would only take the same care of himself that he does of his horse, or cow, or dog, he would enjoy good health. | When a man owns a hundred-dollar horse, | and it gets sick, he does not waste any time j about doctoring him up. When his garden gets full of weeds, he doesn't delay about rooting them out, for he knows they will choke out his vegetables. When he is out of sorts, sick, nervous, keadachey, has no appetite and is restless and sleepless at night, he pays little attention to it. The result is consumption, nervous prostration or some serious blood or skin disease. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the best of all medicines for hard working men. It gives edge to the appetite, facilitates the flow of digestive juices, invigorates the liver and purifies and enriches the blood. It is the great blood-maker and fleshbuilder. It cures 98 per cent, of all cases of lingering coughs, bronchial and throat affections, weak lungs, bleeding from lungs and kindred affections. Do not wait until the lungs are too far wasted to admit of being cured. ' As you know, five years ago the doctors had given me up to die with consumption," writes Mr. E. G. McKinney. of Deepwater, Fayette Co.. W. Va. "I took "treatment from Dr. R. V. Pierce, and am entirely well now. I had taken steadily, as directed, his 'Golden Medical Discovery*.' " Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation One little "Pellet" is a dose. Declines to Accept. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Please allow me a short space in vonr columns to make an exolaDation to the many friends I have on both the north and south side of Saluda river, relative to the dispensary and my election as dispenser at theCauit House. I have been elected by the Board of Control as dispenser at Lexington C H. There being ODly two dispensaries in the county?one located in the Fork and the other one at the Court House?after carefully considering the matter, I have come to the conclusion that the dispenser at the Court House should be a man from the south side of the river, thinking that in all such matters patronage should be divided between the two sides of the river, consequently I have tendered my resignation to the Board of Control. Thanking my many friends for their past favors, I remain, yours very respectfully, James B. Addy. A Fine Piece of Color Work. An experienced art critic gives it as his opinion that there will be no handsomer piece of color work issued this year than Hood's Sarsaparilla Calendar for 1809. It is not only useful, but artistic and beautiful, and up to date. The charming ''American Girl" whose beautiful face appears with a delicately painted flag in the background, makes a pleasing feature which anyone will be pleased to have before him the whole of 180D. We suppose druggists will have this Cajpadar, or a copy may be obtained by sending G cents to C I. Hood & Co, Lowell, Mass. See the great display of candy at the Bazaar, before you buy your Christmas supply, or at any time you may want the best and purest candy. Gleanings Gathered "by Billy Felix. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Hope you had a Merry Chiistmas and a Hippy New Year. Generally speaking the health of our community is good. The measles are somewhat subsiding, still we hear of <omo isolated cases. Otto Goodwin is spending his holiday vacation in and arouDd Gaston. Otto wears a broad smile in his uniform of grey. Mr. J. G. Fallaw resigns his position with Messrs. Rast Brothers, and comes home to erect a new dwelling 'and sing lullabys to little John R.. The stove in the old Piatt Springs school was sold recently and the proceeds went for the Athen's school, the clear tones of which can now be heard over hill and dale summoning the youths to mental duties. Rev. H. M. Fallaw is home from Furman. He speaks well of the University and will return after his well earned vacation to pursue his studies in this time honored institution. Mrs. W. B. Fallaw is visiting relatives and frieDds in the Wagener neighborhood. Mrs. Kiddie Wise experienced a series of athletic exercises the other day by descending the stair steps of Mr. Sphaler. We are glad, however, to chronicle the fact that she sustained no severe or fatal injuries. Mrs. J. M. Kneece and family of Aiken, are visiting under the parental roof of Mrs. R J. Fallaw. Our little genial friend, Clarence C. Craft, was home on a short furlough Christmas from the Citadel. Clarence stood the examination for the scholarship at West Point and won but failed on his physical examination. He then competed for the vacancy at the Citadel and won. There are fiftyfour in his class and Clarence leads it. This is a fine record for little Clarence and we predict success for him. What Gastonian called on his best girl on Christmas and went away with a down cast look and broken heart because he f Mrs. E. Hall of Samaiia, is spending the Christmas holidays in Gaston. The Oakdale school continues to grow. It now has a register of seventy five. This school observed Arbor day on the 23d ult. After some appropriate exercises in songs, declamations and historical facts concerning trees, there were hackberries, cedars, shrubs, apples, flowers and others planted out. After all was over the school went into an election for a State flower in which the wild rose came out victorious. This school has a well organized Literary Society with W. B. Fallaw, president; Daniel Jefcoat, secretary * and John W. Boles, treasurer. The society meets once a week. The State Legislature ineel^ on the 10th ult. and among the many topics to claim the attention of the worthy honorables, will be one to enact a special act to allow !99 as Leap Year for "Klondike's" own individual benefit in order that his dreams, aircastles and imaginations may be realized in substance. Billy knew he had the light idea in his trhan Vla morlii flio mnw fnr gUUXU TV UCli UV UJUV4V KUV wwvt v *w a division of the Teachers' meeting and he was still aware of the fact that if no ripe and mature minded teacher would second the motion, that "Klondike'' was just "green enough"' to do so. Good, that we still have the stock law. "Levi stands to the saw all the time, except Sunday. Ask him where he is then."' Answer^ "Where "Klondike" wants to be, or in a similar position. The old y^ar goes out with many changes, both on land and sea. '98 goes down on the pages of history with some wondeiful events wrought by the American people. '99 comes in with many resolutions formed and and we trust not to be broken. May the coming year be one of happiness, prosperity and good will towards all mankind. Billy wishes and sends greetings to all humanity and success to the same, and especially, the good old Dispatch. Should the pious, faithful and amiable Mrs. Felix return to the embraces of a fond and true husband, you may again hear from Billy Felix. Dec. 27, 1898. Eobbsd the Grave. A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subiect. is narrated bv him as fnl lows: "I was in a most delightful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite?gradually growing weaker day by day. Turee physicians had given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trving 'Electric Bitters:' end % o ' to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement.
