! A I Summer v Tonic i g Many people^ lose flesh and become debilitated during the hot weather. They need a tonic that t] will enable the system to resist the enervating effect of torrid weather. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale s< People are just that sort of a tonic. They have no purgative action, an ^ important consideration in summer. They strengthen body and nerves. ' Is Here is the sworn statement of H. K. McLellan, of Hamilton, 111., who gained 27 pounds by using 11 this wonderful remedy. He says: ** I was miserable all the time, much re- g duced in flesh, and unable to satisfactorily p attend to business. My wife persuaded me to trv a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and I did so. To my ^ surprise I had taken but part of a box before I was better, and three boxes effected S a relief that has been permanent. ** "When I began to take the pills I only weighed J36 pounds; now I weigh 163. ft These pills did me more good than all the g other medicines I have ever taken. My wife has also used them for general debility, and they were beneficial to her." S( "H.K.McLELLAN. Subscribed and sworn to before me this second day of December, A. D. 1897. R. R.

Our pantry is getting empty and our cook has commenced to quarrel, our clothes are getting brown and threadbare, so come up and iieJp us out 01 our great tribulation. The Sunday School Convention, which meets at St. Michaels church near Irmo Friday, promises to be largely attended by Sunday school workers and Christians generally. I The programme is certainly a very interesting one and the discussions of the subjects will be edifying and entertaining. Those who possibly j can do so should attend. Yesterday afternoon the long locked for and much desired rain began falling and we were refreshed by a nice little shower. It has since been raining off and on and the appearance of the clouds indicate that this season of refreshing showers will be continued for sometime. The atmosphere has considerably cooled and life has been made more endurable and comfortable. The Chapin Manufacturing Company of Chapin, this county, has been organized with the following corporators: R. W. Fxick, W. B. Williams, H. P. Meetze, J. H. Frick, J. S. Wessinger, P. M. Frick and S. J J. Clark. The capital stock is $50,000. We see no reason why this enterprise should not be a success. A It certainly has enterprising business j men at its head. Examinations were held in the court house last Friday for scholarships in Winthrop and the South Carolina College. The following young ladies stood for the former: Miss Erin George, Lexington; Miss j Ethel Dreher, Lexington;,Miss Mary W. Lyles, Seivern, and the following j young men for that in the South Carolina College: Mr. Jules Bradford, Lexington, and Mr. T. Haskell Shul), Rocky Well. There will probably be an increased acreage in small grain in this county this fall and the wise man will commence to make arrangement to harvest the large crop which will be grown. No better way to do this presents itself than by calling on Meetze & Son., at this place and purchase a McCormick Mower. These machines are great labor savers; does their work thoroughly and gives satisfaction wherever they have been tried. Every Democratic voter in the county should attend the campaign meeting appointed for his precinct, and hear the candidates for State Senator from this county discuss political and economic matters of interest to the taxpayer. There are four candidates asking for the suffrage of the people for this position, and there is no better way to learn how they stand on public questions than to attend these meetings and hear what the speakers have to say for thenselves. Oar baby has been continually troubled with colic and cholera infantum since his birth, and all that we could do for him did not seem to give more than temporary relief, until we tried Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Since giving that remedy he ha3 not been troubled. "Wo want to give you this testimonial as an evidence of our gratitude, not that you need it to advertise your meritorious remedy.?G. M. Law, Keokuk, Iowa. For sale by J. E. Ivaufmann. Whisky, Pistols and Razors. A week or so ago there was a negro barbecue at Sam Caughman's just beyond Cherokee Ford, at which whisky, pistols and razors were much in evidence. During the day a free fight occurred in which pepper boxes and knives were freely used. Several negroes received slight cuts and two were shot, one in the thigh and the other in the toe. Henry Norris, who is implicated in the shooting, made his escape and has been dodging the law officers until last Sunday, when Constable P. II. Corley, was notified by Mr. A. T. Frazee of Drookland, that Norris bad been arrested by the police of Columbia. He was brought to this place and is now in j lil. Noah Hall, who is also charged with being implicated in the riot, has been arrested and is now in jail awaiting trial at the September term of court. * Prepare for the Election. | Notice Executive Committee Lexington Democracy. | Members of the Executive Comi mittee are requested to send in at once names for managers at the coming primary election to be held August loth.

Its plant at Chicago for building these presses is running night and day and new locations are being 'selected as rapidly as possible. Summer Heat. This is the season for bowel complaints. Green apples and cucumbers produce them and Perry Davis' Pain-Killer cures them. To the troubled stomach it comes like a balm, the wind is assuaged, and the trouble ceases. Every druggist in the land keeps Pain-Killer, and no one should be without it in his family. Avoid substitutes, there is but one Paiu Killer, Perry Davis'. Price 25 c. and 50c. Be Prepared. The publisher of the Dispatch will attend the campaign meetings, commencing at Leesville next Tuesday and ho expects every one who is indebted to the Dispatch to pay a portion if not all of what they owe. "We need the money to meet current expenses and we are compelled to get it from our subscribers who owe us, therefore we insist that they must pay. Do not wait for him to look you up; he will have your account and he knows that you owe the Dispatch and so do you so, hunt him up and pay what you can. Some subscribers, failing to pay something'on his rounds need not be surprised if they fail to receive the Dispatch after the campaign closes. Bailroad Smash Up. Last Thursday morning there was I * o quite a bad smash up at Barr's Landing, about four miles below this place. It seems that the regular morning freight train from Columbia, was to pass this place and take the side track at Barr's Landing to allow an extra watermelon train from the Carolina Midland road to pass. On arriving at Barr's the freight train took the side track, but it was too long to clear it. Just as the freight train rolled up on the side track the watermelon train came thundering up to the station, the engineer, Mr. Powell, seemed unable to control the train on account of the down grade and his air brakes refusing to work, and the engine weut crashing into the rear end of the regular freight traiD, which was on the main track. The locomotive was ditched and r*T>nr rvll ilc Clilo n Anmnlptp wreck. Some eight or' nice freight cars were badly demolished and the track lorn up. Both the Southbound and Northbound trains were delayed, but a large force of hands were put to work and the wreckage was cleared before nightfall. Engineer Powell received some slight injuries, but fortunately no one else was injured. U CURE ALL YOUR PAINS WITH | jPain-KillerJ M A Medicine Chest in Itself.
