"I wish to say that I feel I owe my life to Kodol Dyspepsia Cure," ? ?- m rr writes H. C. (Jhrestenson, 01 nayfield, Minn. "For three years I was troubled with dyspepsia sc that I i could hold nothing on my stomach. Many times I would be unable to retain a morsel of food. Finally I was confined to my bed. Doctors said I could not live. I read one of your advertisements on Kodol Dyspepsia Cure and thought it fit my case and commenced its use. I began to improve from the first bottle. Now I am cured and recommend it to all." Digests your food. P.nrcc oil troubles. J. E. Kaufmann. A Hint to Gov. McSwesney. Abbeville Press and Banner. If tbe Governor were in a condition to accept suggestions from a newspaper, wbich in the recent election gave him hearty and ucreserved support, we would suggest that he, in his message to the Legislature, give due and proper consideration of the proposed legislation in reference to the wroDg with which mill operatives are threatened. The cotton mill industry in this State has grown to immense proportions, and it is evident i hat the co'ton mills need protection from those politicians who would strike them down. ? ' - iL.i .L. It is not less certain mat me ope% ratives need protection from those who propose to interfere with their right to earn an honest living. Looking alike to the interests of the poor and defenseless people as well as to the privileges and rights of the mill owners, it is hoped that the Governor may rise superior to prejudice, and that he may be stronger than the exiting c'amor, so that he may dispassionately look at the issues with clearness of vision. The mill people are poor and need not be shackled by unfriendly legislation.

Abridge not one j t or one title of the poor man's right to control his own family. When the management of the children of poor people is k transferred to corporations, then a b strike has been made at the very r foundations of American freedom. Leave the management of children to their natural protectors, but see tbat. the powerless parents are prot ^ tectea. No corporation on earth should have the right to hurdle together huudrede?if. may be thousand*?}f little children, and then m-^ke no provision for the protection of tbe;r spiritual welfare. Some men in an inexcusable ignorance of what they are talking about, Catarrh has become such a common j disease that a person entirely free from , this disgusting complaint is seldom met with. It is customary to speak of Catarrh j as nothing more serious than a bad cold a simple inflammation of the nose and throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and very dangerous disease; if not at first, it very soon becomes so.1 The blood is quickly contaminated bv the foul secretions, and tlie poison through \ the general circulation is carried to all ; parts of the system. Salves, washes and sprays are unsatisfactory and disappointing, because they <k not reach the seat of the trouble. 8. 8. 8. does. It cleanses-.the blood of the jkusou and eliminates from the system all catarrhal secretions, and thus cures thoroughly and permanently the worst casef. Mr. T. A. Williams, a leading dry-poods merchant of Spartanburg, S. ,C.t writes: " For yean t I had a severe case of nasal Catarrh. -with all the disagreeable effects V& which belong to that cr ??, . disease, and which 83 SB? make life painful and unendurable. I used 1 j ^ BV medicines prescribed by U i _x Mr leading physician* and suggested l>v numbers /L \ of friends, but without . j getting any better. I ' j then began'to take S. S. S.

S. S., and send tor our book on Blood and Skin Diseases and write our physicians alx>ut your case. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO.. ATLANTA, 6A. bave proposed that children under twelve years should Dot be allowed fn nara fnr the manhinPS nf a flnttnn mill. It would be hard to conceive how any one less than a fiend icarDate should advocate the enforced idleness of the great numbers of children who are 'brown together at a cotton mill. Children, like mer, should have employment, and it caildren are not at school, th^ir parents should rf quire tbem to work, except at such limes when rest and recreation are necessary. Better that every cotton mill in the State .should sink to the bottomless pit, than to have the pride and j spirit crushed out of the mill opera- j tives. Better that the children be j sent to their graves than to see them ; demoralized and unfitted for bfcom- | ing good and useful citizens. The poor boy operating a spindle j may have as high hopes and as noble aspirations as the richest boy in tt e land. If no stigma is placed upon him by law, and if the mill owners . are required to do their duty, he may . become the richest and the most j honored in all the land. Don't legislate against the poor, j G ve them help and encouragement j so that they may better their condi- j tion. !
