To the Editor of the Dispatch:
The health of our community is
very good at present though the continued
cold weather is causing some
cases of sore throat.
At this writing the high price of
CDtton is having no apparent (fifect
on the farmers of this section. They
have been humbugged so much that
they are looking for it again next
year.
The "homey handed sods of toil"
in this neighborhood are beginning
to tarn their rough lands and getting
their fields iu farming order.
Mr. Elitor, the 4 Old Coon" enjoyed
Christmas at or near Hiltoo,
where he wss caught and caged,
spent one week of his honeymoon
with hi8 bride. Soatb Fork regrets
losing the coon, bat the Fork's loss
is Hilton's gain.
Prayer meeting is still being contacted
in this community, but we
are sorry to say with not as much
interest as should be felt. Our
community should take deeper interest
in their spiritual duties.
Mr. Ad lpbus Eleazer has deserted
this section and gone to Columbia
and will engage in handling machinery.
Mrs. Biancbe Lorick of Columbia,

I
Mr. H E McEotire and his young
and beautiful bride returned home a
few days ago from a visit to Delifoot,
N C, where they spent some
time.
Mr. C M. Bouknight, of Newberry,
has been on a visit here
among relatives and frieada.
Wishing the Editor, the Dispatch,
b and its readers a [prosperous year,
? and may each one of you be blessed
\ with peace and plenty, and your
lives as free from "dull care" as the
waves which dance over the deep
blue sea. Paer.

Congratulations.
Mr. John H. Culliou, Editor of the
Garland, Texas, News, has written a
letter of congratulations to the manufacturers
of Chamberlain's Cough
Bemedy as follows: "Sixteen years
ago when our first child was a baby
he was subject to croupy spells and
we would be very uneasy about him.
We began using Chamberlain's Coogh
Remedy in 1887, and finding it such
a reliable remedy for colds and croup,
we have never been without it in the
house since that time. We have five
children and have given it to all of
them with good results. One good
[ feature cf this remedy is that it is
not disagreeable to take and our
babies really like it. Another is that
it is not dangerous, and there is no
risk from giving an overdose. I congratulate
you upon the success of
your remedy/' For sale by The

TJnder Treatment.
The State, of January 15:b, say9 :
"Dr. D. L. Boozer, the popular
young dentist of Newberry, is here
under treatment for a throat affection
incident to too much surf bathing
while on his vacation this summer.
His condition is improving,
however, aDd he hopes to fully regain
Lis health and strength in a
short time."
Domestic Troubles.
I It is txceptional to find a family
where there are do domestic ruptures
occasionally, but these can be lessen
ed by having Dr King's New Lift
Pills around. Much trouble fchej
save by their great work in Stomact
and Liver troubles. 25c. at Th<

Rev. Carlisle P. B. Martin, L. L. D.
Of Waverly, Texas, writes, "Of a
morning, when first arising. I often
had a troublesome collection of
phlegm, which produces a cough and
is very hard to dislodge; but a small
quanit? of Ballard's Horehound
Syrup will at once dislodge it, and
the trouble is over. I know of no
medicine that is equal to it, and it is
so pleasant to take. I can most

the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
