Tbe Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, July 29,1903. Calla News. To tbe Editor of the Dispatch: The health of our community is > very good at this writing, with few exceptions. The farmers are well up with their work. General Green has been completely routed, and some farmers have already hung up their goose Deck rifles to rest in rust until next summer and are passing the time in . singing. The battle is over, the vie tory is won, now we'll go a fishing and have some fan. Rain has been very favorable to our community, and crops are looking promising. . The farmers are planning how they will spend the month of Augus t. Some are getting their fishing tackle ready for the finny tribe, some are loading shells for the squirrels, and some have picked out the tree under whose shade they intend to take their midday siesta. The old reliable and never failing blackberries will all soon be gone. But when the cycle of the seasons shall have revolved they will come again to gladden the heart and fill the acking void in the stomach of man. Peach and apples pies are takiDg the place of two story blackberry pastry. Though not quite as delicious as the latter they will answer the purpose in ihl absence of something better. The cry of hard times have been hashed by a plentiful supply of salt cured pork and beans. Mrs. E. Coogler and daughter, Tillie, have returned from a visit to South Fork.

KJ Ucle George says Black creek is getting greasy with bab'ea. Klondike. Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhoea. "About six years ago for the first time in my life I had a sudden and severe attack of diarrhoea," says Mrs. Alice Miller, of Morgan, Texas. "I got temporary relief, but it came back again and again, and for six long years I have suffered more misery andi agony than I can tell. It was worse than death. My husband spent hundreds of dollars for physicians prescriptions and treatment without avail. Finally we moved to Boeque county, our present home, and one day I happened to see an advertisement of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimonial of a man who had been cured by it. The case was so similar to my own that I concluded to try the remedy. The result was wonderful. I could hardly realize that I was well again, or believe it could be after having suffered so long, but that one bottle of medicine, costing but a few cents, cured me."

Kansas City; Mo., July 21 ?The Missouri Pacific and Turlington railroads have announced that they will not receive grain shipments for Kansas City and the Missouri Pacific is 1 alao refusing to receive grain routed through Kansas City for other points The Santa Fe Railroad probably will issue 8n order placing an embargo against the Burlington.

He never sulks when things go wrong on the farm or in the home. He has a word of praise for tbe hired boy, or the cook.

The proprietors of Foley's Honey and Tar do not advertise this as a "sure cure for consumption."
