Iffakicg Beady for the State Fair. The County Display Contests?Lex iDgton the Fust to Begin Preparations?Handsome Prizes Offered. 'In Two Month's Time. The Coluujbia State btli. It is row only two mcnths before the annual State fair is to be held ' and the people of the State will be crowding iDtc the most rapidly dev< lopiDg city of the south. * The fair comes a week earlier this year and unless the experience of the past amounts to nothing there will be no ram to mar the pleasures of the cc casion. The people in other parts of the Sfate have already begun to manifest an interest in the coming exhibition. Sec. Holloway writes from his home at Pomaria that 25 stalls for horses from York county and four stalls for nurses llUUi \Sl niJgevui g wuiil.jr uofo already been engaged. He also writes that one county?Lexington? is moving vigorously in the matter of county displays. This year the premiums offered for the best county displays are worth striving for and several counties will doubtless enter the list against Lexington. There are three prizes aggregating $500? first $250; second $150, and <hird $100. So for no steps have been taken towards getting the Columbia Fair association to work on the program of outside attractions for the week. Last year a late start was made and things had to be done in a rush. It is to be hoped that this year no time will be thrown away and that the association will get to work early, having its programme fully mapped out and announced some weeks in advance of the annual gala occasion. From all parts of the State comes information of people who expect to enjoy this year's fair week festivities. ? Discovered by a, Woman. Another great discovery has been made, and that too by a lady in this country. "Disease fastened " its ' . clutches upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, and could not sleep. She finally discovered a way to recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, and was so much relieved on taking first dose, that she slept all night; and with two bottles, has been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz. Thus writes W. C Hammick & Co., of Shelby, N. C Trial bottles free at J. E Kaufmann'e Drug Store. Regular size 50c and $1 00. Every bottle guaranteed. A Letter from Billy Feliz. To the Editor of the Dispatch: An abundance of rain, excessive heat and cotton picking seems to be the prevailing topics of discussion. The streets of our litlle towD was j rrred by the corpulent body of our esteemed and genial friend, Mr. W. N. McNeill, formerly doing business here for the F. C. and P. R R, but now of Olar, S- C. While here he gave me a wheel for you, Mr. Editor, which I trust will tend to swell your purse of already numerous number, collected on your recent rounds and will be an incentive to come and do likewise. Mr. C. C Craft will return to the Citadel at the fall opening. The charming and captivating Miss Lula Wise has returned to her home and leaves the hearts of some of our young men in a delirious condition and one of ?our popular and handsome youngsters whose countenance seems sad, and grief fills his eyes, longing to be again made glad by the coming of the pretty Miss , Wise. The sociable Miss Dora E, daugh ter of our worthy and estimable citizen, Mr. D. E Craft, will enter the Leesville College at the opening session. One of our most valued and hon ortd youDg Gastonians will, we predict, ere long don the robe of a benedict, for your humble scribe has been engaged to peiform that most delightful ceremoBy. R-v. H.

Gaston, Sept. 4,1899. Notes from Pine Ridge. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Rains have been plentiful for past week and the-weather is delightful. Mr. P. P. Derrick has been over in Newberry county near Prosperity, repairing an engine and boiler for Mr. Fed Stockman. Mr. Stockman says it is all right. He is ginning every day. All who have engines j and boilers to patch will do well to i call on Mr. P. P. Derrick to do the ! work. Mr. Taylor moveed his new wagon ! out from the Brooks shop Saturday.!

What Smith Thought of His Proposed Sermon. | Smith, who lives on the West Side, had his hair cut short last week.: And as Smith has been wont to wear I it rather long, the difference in his j appearance is marvellous. The day after it was cut he met Green. He ! hadn't seen Green for over a year. \ Green hardly knew him. "And, by Jove," exclaimed Green, i pointing to the white tie, "you look almost like a preacher." Smith's features straightened themselves out. "Then you haven't heard?" "Not a thing," said GreeD. "I see," replied Smith, who is still; a lawyer, in the proper sepulchral tones. "Yes, I am preaching now." j "The?the?well, you don't say so!" exclaimed Green. "Oh, yes. Com9 and hear me j next Sunday, won't ycu?" "Why?er?thaDks, yes?that is, i if I caD," stammered Green. "Well, I hope you'll find time," an-1 swered Smith, severely, "ltemem- j ber that we are not always, for this ; world. And besides," he added,; "you'll hear a h?1 of a good sermon." Aizing Bed Clothing. "Many cases of iilness have resulted from improper airing of beds and; bed clothing. Many housekeepers make their beds the first thing in the morning for weeks and months at a time. Sheets, quilts, blankets, pil-' lows, feather beds, mattresses, etc , should be aired and sunned at least once a week. Daring the win { ter the clothes should be out in freezing weather when the air is not too damp. Clean, fresh beds are much ' nicer and healthier than those made up every morning without airing. Pure air is most important if we would have good health. Cold drink0, soda water, and all of the latest drinks, can be had at the ; Biznar fountain. Ice cream served j ev ry Saturday afternoon.

Sumter county will soon try the experiment of rural free delivery of the mails. Congressman Stokes has been pushing the matter of rural free delivery of mail and free delivery of mails in towns of less than the arbitrary limit of 10,000 population. As Dr. Stokes is the father of the bill to establish these mail routes, he his gotten more out of the rural delivery matter than any other Cjngressman from this State, and probib'y from any other State. He now has seventeen routes established and laid out. Sumter has two laid out, one around Bishopville, with Mr. J. L. Parrott as carrier, Hagood and Mayesville have also been booked for inspection. About $3,500 will be distribute d in this Congressional district this year from this source, and about $2,000 per annum has been added to the pay of fourth-class postmasters through the tffjrts of Dr. Stokes. This is pay these offi cials were entitled to under the law, but were not getting because they did not understand how to go about it. Congressman Stokes seems to be woiking very hard to get all the money down here in a legitimate way that can be brought here. We get the service, and the money put in circulation here will help also. It is not a bad thing to have lying arouDd loose. The experiment of rural delivery will be watched with much interest as upon its success now depends the further development of the system. Spring is here and nature some times needs assistance and there is nothing better than Dr. Baker's great vegetable blood and liver cure. It corrects the system and keeps the machinery woiking satisfactorily. It is good for rheumatism, ecrofula, syphilis, dropsy, catarih and all diseases of the blood, liver and kidneys, and general debility. The greatest blood purifier known. For sale at the Bazaar. Price $1.00 for a large General Longstreet, as Uuited States railroad commissioner, is now traveling through the West, making bis annual tour of inspection of the land grants and bond aided roads, in preparation for the report to be submitted by him to the secretary of the interior next November. Chester H. Brown, Kalamazoo, Mich , says: "Kodol Dyspepsia Core cured me of a severe case of indigestior: can strongly recommend it to all dyspr ptics. "Digests what you eat without aid from the stomach, and cures dyspepsia. J. E. Kaufmann. Mock Maple Syrup. Take a dozen corn cobs, preferably red, and wash them clean of dust and chaff, put them in a kettle of water on a brisk fire and let them boil for half an hour, then pour the water off and strain into another kettle or pan. Add water until there is as much as the amount of syrup you wish to make, then put it nr* ck fi re* onrl lraf if nr\ m o f r\ O Stir in brown sugar until of desired thickness and taste, then pour into a pail or pan to cool. This will not bo maple syrup; but it is a good substitute. If you don't believe so, try it. To Keep Brushes Clean. The best way to clean hairbrushes is with spirits of ammonia, as its eftVct is immediate. No lubbing is r< quired, and cold or tepid water can be used as successfully as warm. Take a tablespoonful of ammonia to a quart of watei; dip the bristles without wetting the back, arid in a moment the grease is removed; then rinse iu cold water, shake well and dry in the air: but not in the sun Soap and soda soften the bristles and do not get them so thoroughly ch an. Lemons, thin skin and tine, at the iiazaur. The citiz n* of Sp< kar:e, Wash . are raising funds- for the erection of a monument to J hn R hert Mon agban, who way killed in Smioa during the attir k upon the B iti^h and American marines by the followers of Mataafa. MoDaghun was popular in Spokane, where he lived, and *2,000 has already been subscribed toward the monument.

A Minnesota man captured a kingfisher when it was young, made a pet of it and trained the bird to capture fish and lay them at its master's feet. In summer the bird is taken to the liver, where fish are known to abound, and set at liberty. It, poises high in the air, and, suddenly dropping, grasps its victim and promptly delivers the fi h to its master. Thert's always hope while there's Oue Minute Cough Cure.'' An attack of pneumonia lift ray lungs in bad shape and I was near the first stages of consumption. One Minute Cough Cure completely cured ine,'' writes Helen MeHenry, Bismark, N. D. Gives instant relief. J. E Kaufraann. A story comes from Georgetown county of the eating alive of a young negro child by a wild hog, which ventured out of a swamp and seized upon its prey. The mother of the child came upon the scene just in time to save a few fragments of the child's body upon which the animal was still munching. The swamps in that sectun were at one time filled with wild boars and animals of that class. For wounds, burns, scalds, sores, skin diseases and all irritating eruptions, nothing so soothing and healing as DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. Mrs. Emma Bolles, Matron Eoglewcod Nursery, Chicago, says of i!: "When all else fails in healiDg our babies, it will cure."' J. E Kaufmann. At the present time there are between 500 and 1,000 men in New York who are worth a million del lars or more. Iq 1815, when New York had a population of 110,000 there were only nineteen men who were assessed at ?100,000 or more, and the highest assessment was only $300,000 In the list the names of John Jacob Astor, Jacob Lorillard and Jonathan Ogden are prominent. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is a scientific compound haviDg the endorse ment of eminent physicians and the medical press. It "digests what you eat" and positively cures dyspepsia. M A. Ketron, Bloomingdale, Tenn., says it cured him of indigestion of ten years' standing. J. E. Kaufmann. The use of the fan oiiginated in China, and sprang from the following incident: A royal princess, very beautiful, was assisting at the feast of lanterns, her face covered with a mask, as usual. The excessive heat compelled her to remove it, and in order to guard her features from the common gaze she moved it -quickly to and fro in front of her face, thus simultaneously hiding her charms and cooling her brow. The idea was at once adopted throughout the kingdom. The pain of a burn or scald is almost instantly relieved by applying Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It also heals the injured parts more quickly than any other treatment, and with out the burn is very severe does Dot leave a scar. For sale by J. E Kaufmann. The shortest honeymoon and the quickest application for divorce on record are reported in the Winfield (Kan.) Courier. Recently a resident of Pawnee, 0. T., was married to a young woman of Winfield. It was noticed that the biidegroom was somewhat under the itfluence of liquor during the ceremony, and when he retired to the room of the bride he sat down in a chair and at once went to sltep. When Le awak ened two Lours later bis biide was still with him, but she had been transformed from an affectionate girl into an angry aDd disgusted woman. She turned a deaf ear to all his apologies and entreaties, and walked out of the room and straight to a lawyer's office, where she commenced action for divorce. ^ Good Enough to Take. The fioeet quality of loaf sugar is used in the manufacture of Cham- ' beiIain's Cough Remedy and the roots used in its preparation give it a fLvor similar to that of maple syrup, making it very .pleasant to take. As a medicine for the cure of coughs, colds, la grippe, croup and whooping cough it i3 umqualed by aDy other. It always cures, and cures quickly. For sale b> J E. K'tufmauu.
