It would be well to keep the wood pile stacked high aud the axe ground sharp. De Yoe says that January is likely to be a cold and stormy month in all sec tions of the country. From the 1st to the 3rd, fair and cold; the 3rd to 5th, cloudy, followed by rain or snow: 6th to 8th, fair, but cold in the North; 9th to 11th, a great storm will pre vail over the Eastern Gulf States and another over the Missouri * Valley, bringing rain, snow and cold weathei over the whole country; 12th to 13th, cold wave? 11th to IGtb, cold ovei the North, but warmer over the Southern States; 17th to 19th, cloudy, followed by snow and rain; 20th to 23t d, fair weather; 21th to 2oth, a storm will fortp over Texas with threatening weather over the Middle Gulf States and warmer over the East Gulf States, heavy rains and danger of floods over the West Gulf States; 27th to 28th, heavy snow 8torm9 over the North and cold weather generally, continuing until the 31st.

S;ok3S and His Anti-Option Bill In speaking of the above bill "R. M. L the Washington correspondent of the News and Courier, says: "Pending consideration of the agricultural appropriation bill in committee Congressman Stokes neatly forced the hand of the committee in the line of his anti-option fight. The committee has several times shown a disposition to sidetrack tho issue, and Mr. Stokes determined to force the fighting. When the item for "special investigations and compila tionb" was reached he moved to amend by ''including the effect of speculative dealings on cotton, grain and pork exchanges upon the prices of actual commodities."' This left no room for dodging, and the issue was fought out at length. Mr. Stokes made a strong presentation but, by a strict party vote, his amendment was defeated. He called the yeas and nays so as to put them on record, and served notice that he would renew the motion at- a subsequent time." . - ? Time to Estate. The Dispatch has nothing to say for the management of the State Penitentiary by Col. N^al, but it does claim that Lexington county has a candidate for the position who is in every way qualified to discharge the duties of the office with credit to himself and honor to the State.

Her claims are fnrfhor efrenorftw thp fnpf. tVtaf. one of the basic principles of the Reform Movement is rotation in office, and as Col.

Deadly C Curet Do Not Give Up in Despair?There is Hope! For ages it has been thought that Cancer is incurable, and those so unfortunate as to have this dreadful affliction have considered themselves beyond hope of recovery. The doctors are absolutely unable to afford any relief, and the poor sufferer might wr>ll consider himself on the wav to an early grave. It is now easy to see why tlie doctors have failed to cure Cancer. Their theories have heen all wrong, and hence their treatment misdirected. They have made t he mistake of thinking that by cutting out the sore or ulcer, known as Cancer, the disease would be go!ien rid of, and the patient restored to health. But the cruel knife accomplishes nothing, for 1 he Cancer prompt !y ret urns.and is always more virulent than before. It has b?en demonstrated, beyond doubt, thai Cancer is a blood disease, and can not be cured by the surgeon's knife because the btoo'l run not be rut U n il if.
