CONSTIPATION, the great cause pi ill-health, is quickly relieved and soon cured by its use.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: Tbe long dry sped bas been broken by a rain Friday and Saturday and tbe putting out of fertilizers has been 1 temporarily suspended. No cotton planting bas been done yet but some will commence after the third Sunday. The farmers are generally up with | their work and are ready for the season. The business outlook for Swansea is still bright and promising and the doctors complain that tbe health of the community is perfectly good. The family of Peter Oliver has moved into their new residence in town. Peter's face is now one cf the familiar sights we meet with on our streets. The railroad company bas enlarged the depot at this place and two waiting rooms have been furnished for the travelers. On last Sunday Dr. E U Andrews, of Chicago, preached in the Baptist church in tbe morniog and at night. His morning theme was fcbe proper training aod care for children: 1st. Id the common schools; 2ad in the home aDd 3rd the duty of church men Qs such. At night he preached about the friendship of Jesus and its exhalted character and worth. Both efforts were full of thought of a high nature, aDd were well worthy of the culture and ability of that distinguished gentleman, preacher and scholar. D. J. Kootts bad a valuable mule gored oy a Gumsey bull and two weeks rest had to be given it. SiDce a deborner has made its appearance a gentleman of bis rude inclinations bas been dethroned of his power to "push with his horns". 0 her cows and yearlings have suffered a like fate, and the iniquity of tbe father has been visited on the children of the first generation and kindred of the herd and even on former generations. Mrs. Louisa Gantt and her two interesting children have returned to Palatka, Fia., and Ann.e May Gantt has returned with them.

Our community has been called j upon to extend sympathy to Mrs. Sarah Past and family, in the sad news of the death of Mr. Dantz'er, the husband of Carrie, the youngest daughter of the Rev. L. W. Ristand Sarah Rast. He leases a faithful wife and two little children as the worst sufferers in his death. Dr. A C. Langford and Miss Joe I Langford are visiting Dr. John R. i Langford.

MEET ME AT THE FOUNTAIN", C SIS , FOR BARGAIN'S. Thin eale W. D. BATE Klondike's ITotss. j To the Editor of the Dispatch: Yes I have been down with the measles and up with them too, so far as that 19 concerned. Will say? personal!} ? that measles do not concern me any more. We felt so thankful because the red pest did us no worse that we sacrificed our mustache and now ycu can behold us 88 in our tender youth. Some say we have lost at least 50 per cent, cf our beauty. ' Now this makes us feel very serious. Supposing originally we possessed 100 per cent, now there remains but 50. Of course that would be so much supposition. But we feel at least 200 per cent, better and we would rather run this matter by feeling. Don't make any difference how ugly a man is nohow. He can be elected to cffise as observation 1 proveth. Just imagine what a pleasure it is to slick ones whole mouth into a glass of fre*h buttermilk or some good tomato soup. Then it makes a fellow feel more dignified. Don't know why, ulIsss it is that he has advanced along the line of ~ ? i u r i i BVU1UUUL1 a BUUva LI la 11 ltrLlLl the -"JBillie" goat. Then fce receives more attention from his old friends aud acquaintances and especially the small boy at church. But what hurt U9 most, our baby would look at us and then scream out for his mother. I suppose he saw where he had lost an opportunity. Mr. T. S. Sease has been unfortunate in having two barns with all or most all the food they contained burned within the last month. This is evidently the work of a scoundrel. Fortunately the live stock were saved at both barns. Had it not been for the heroic work of the train crew be would have lost everything in both the store and several other buildiDgs.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: The farmers around in this section i are busy preparing their land for ! planting. The grain crop is looking i splendid.

Miss Rosa Belle Meetze visited j her cousin Miss Iva MeeUe last Sun- I day evening. Mrs. Amanda Derrick, of White j Rock, visited her daughter, Mrs Ernest Meetze, last Saturday and Sunday. Rev. J. L.

O itside of this the most of our people raise their own hog aDd hominy with a large quantity of cotton as a surplus. The small grain is looking fine, notwithstanding the bard winter the oat crop will be ordinarily good. The health of our community ia good at this writing except Mr. JB.
