Chamberlain's Cough Remed y is
Pleasant to Take.
The finest quality of granulated
* loaf sugar is used iu th9 manufacture
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and
I the roots used in its preparation give
I it a flavor similar to maple syrup,
making it quite pleasant to take. Mr.
W. L. Roderick, of Poolesville, Md?
in speaking of this remedy, says: "I

best preparation of the kind I know
of. The children like to take it and
it has no injurious after effect. For

Causes of Wrecks.
The railroad commission will in its
report to the legislature discuss the
freqent wrecks that ha^e occurred in
this state during the past six months.
The report will review every one that
has occurred, and there will be several.
important suggestions made.
From a statement made by Chairman
Garris recently all of the blame
will not be put on the management.
The commission keeps a record of
the wrecks in this state, and the

Not A Sick Day Since.
"I was taken severely sick with
kidBey trouble. I tried all sorts of
medicines, none of which relieved me.
One day I saw an ad. of your Electric
Bitters and determined to try that.
After taking a few doses I felt relieved,
and soon thereafter was entirely
cured, and have not seen a sick
day since. Neighbors of mine have
been cured of Rheumatism, Neuralgia,
Liver and Kidney troubles and General
Debility." This is what B. F.
Bass, of Fremont, N. C. writes. Only

Waiting for the Message.
A Philadelphia schoolmistress was
giving her pupils instructions in the
elements of physiology. "The brain
always sends a message to your arm
or your leg whenever you wish to
move the particular member," she
explained.
At last a mischievous boy aroused
her anger by his apparent inattention
to the lesson.
"Hold out your hand!" she exclaimed.
The boy did not move.
"Whw rlorrf- tnn V>nM on i- von v

hand?" said the teacher.
"Waiting for the message from my
brain," said the lad.
The Best Liniment.
"Chamberlain's Pain Balm is considered
the best liniment on the market,"
write Post & Bliss, of Georgia,
Yt. No other liniment will heal a
cut or bruise so promptly. No other
affords such quick relief from rheumatic
pains. No other is so valuable
for deep seated pains like lame back
and pains in the chest. Give this
liniment a trial and you wiil never
wish to be without it. Sold by The
Kaufmann Drug Co.
Conld not Decide.
There is a story going the rounds
of the Western papers about twin
brothers, one of whom was demented
and was ordered by the Court to be i
committed to an asylum. The other
brother accompanied him to the in
stitution. Soon after the twin brothers
had arrived at the asylum the
sheriff received a telegram from the
superintendent, sayiDg:
'Two men who look just alike here
from your country, one for commitment.
One is talking of building a
railroad to the moon and the other
says that the Republican party is opposed
to trusts. Which is the crazy
man?"

Brooklan&'s Corporate Limits.
An interesting civil case involving
the right of extending the corporate
limits of the town of BrooLland has
been transferred from theLexiDgton to
the courts. The case it; entitled A.
I B Bachman, as Intendent of Brookland,
and others against the Colombia
Mills company, G. A. Guignard
and others. In 1901 an election was
held on the question of extending
the town limits of the town so as to
include the Horseshoe lake district,
but this was defeated by about six
votes. Another petition was gotten
up for another election, but this was
stopped by an injunction secured by
the mill company and others, on the
ground that there was not a majority
of the signatures of the qualified
electors attached.
Now the Question to decide is
whether there was a majority of
qualified electors signatures attached.
The case will hardly come up at
the present term, but will be settled
at the next term and should it be
decided adversely the injunction will
be made punctual.?Columbia Ev.
Record.
Disastrous Wrecks.
Carelessness is responsible for
many a rail way wreck and the same
causes are making human wrecks of
sufferers from Throat and Lung troubles.
But since the advent of Dr.
King's New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds, even ttie
worst cases can be cured, and hopeless
resignation is no longer necessary.
Mrs. Lois Cragg of Dorchester, Mas.a.,
is one of many whose life was saved
by Dr. King's Nsw Discovery. This
great remedy is guaranteed for ail
Throat and Lung diseases by The
Kauftnann Drug Co. Price oOc, and

A Negro Exodus.
Chicago, November 3.?Excitement
prevails today among the colored citizens
of Morgan Park as the result of
the posting of placards throughout
the town giving notice to all colored
persons that they would be allowed
forty-eight hours in which to leave
the place. Several families have already
left, taking with them whatever
goods they could conveniently carry,
and it is expected that others will
follow their example. The order to
leave is the outcome of the murder
of Chief of Police Airey on Saturday I
night by Mack "Wiley, who, with
several of his colored friends, was
out on a Hallowe'en frolic.

A Good Name. j
From personal experience I testify
that De Witt's Little Early Eisers |
are unequalled as a liver pill. They
are rightly named because they give |
strength and energy and do their
work with ease.?W. T. Easton, I
Boerne, Tex. Thousands of people
are using these tiny little pills in j
preference to all others, because they
are so pleasant and effectual. They j
cure biliousness, torpid liver, jaundice,
sick headache, constipation, etc.
They do not purge and weaken, but
cleanse and strengthen. Sold by |
all druggists.
Good Advice.
There is a good custom obtains in
China that ought to be introduced
here and that is that everyone pays
his debts by the first of each January.
How much better it is to begin the
new year free from debt. If you are
so involved that it is not possible to |
pay up entirely by that date why not j
wipe out a portion and begin the j
New Year with empty hands perhaps, I
but with a stout heart and a determination
to get free from debt.

Speaking for Good Roads.
Senator Latimer, of this State, is
in the Northwest making speeches in
