An 'Unknown Angel.
Sbe walks umiotied in the street ;
The casual eye
Sees nothing in her fair or sweet,
The world goes by
Unconscious that an angel's feet
Are passing nigh.
She little has of beauty's wealth;
Truth will allow
Only her priceless youth and health.
Her broad, white brow;
Yet grows she 011 the heart by stealth,
1 scarce know how.
She does a thousand kindly things
That no one knows;
"? ' i- - *1 :
A loving woman s neair sne i
To human woes;
And to her face the sunlight clings
Where'er she goes.
And so she walks her quiet way
with that content
That only comes to sinless days
And Innocent ;
A life devoid of fame or praise.
Yet nobly spent.
Startling Evidence.
Fresh testimony in great quantity is
constantly coming in, declaring Dr.
Bang's JSTew Discovery for Consumption
Coughs and Colds to be unequaled. A
Tecent expression from T. J. McFarland,
Bentorville, Va., serves as example.
He writes: "I had Bronchitis for three
years and doctored all the time without
being benefited. Then I began taking
" "P/-vxre
Dr. King's JNew JLUSCOVery, auu ?. xc^??
bottles wholly cured me." Equally
effective in curing all Lnng and Throat
troubles, Consumption, Pneumonia and
Grip. Guaranteed by The Kaufman n
Drug Co., druggist. Trial bottles free
regular sizes 50c. and $1.00.
Attorney General Knox, who was recently
appointed United States Senator
from Pennsylvania, will be succeeded
by Mr. Moody, at present secretary of
the navy.
If a girl's face is her fortune she
should be careful to avoid counterfeiting.
Thrown From a Wagon.
Mr. George K. Babcock was thrown i
from his wagon and severely bruised, j
He applied Chamberlain's Pain Balm
freely and says it is the best liniment he
-ever used. Mr. Babcock is a well known
t
citizen of North Plain, Conn. There is
nothing equal to Pain Balm for sprains
and bruises. It will effect a cure in
one-third the time required by any other
treatment, For sale by The Kaufmann
Drug Co.,
An explosion which occurred in the
11-story warehouse of the Corning distillery,
the second largest in the world,
at Peoria, HI., completely wrecked the
building. Ten men were buried beneath
the ruins and burned to death, and six
others were seriously injured. The loss
on buildings,.whisky and spirits stored
will appropriate $1,000,000.
An Untimely Death.
An untimely death so often follows
neglect of slight cough or cold. If Taylor's
Cherokee Remedy of Sweet Gum
and Mullein is taken in time it will
prevent any evil results. It cures
coughs, colds and consumption. At
druggists, 25c., 50c. and $1.00 a bottle.
With the reports of two months still
to come the value of exports of manufacturers
from the United States in 1904
is $19,000,000 in excess of any previous
years.
"Land around the bayous of Louisiana
-and Texas, which until 1895 was classed
; as worthless, now yields $25,000,000
worth of rice. About 100 Japanese
? expert rice growers are in this region.
Cures Old Sores.
Westmoreland, Kan., May 5, 1002.
Ballard Snow Liniment Co.: Your
Snow Liniment cured an old sore on tbe
side of my chin that was suppossed to
be a cancer. The sore was stubborn
; and would not yield to treatment, until
I tried Snow Liniment, which did
the work in short order. My sister,
Mrs. Sophia J. Carson, Allensville,
Miffin Co., Pa., has a sore and mistrusts
that it is a cancer. Please send her a
-50c. bottle. Sold by The Kaufmann
Drug Co.'
Will Mooney was shot in Greenville

mistook him for a burglar entering the
house. The wounded young man lost
an t ye by the wound.

Sued by His Doctor.
' A doctor here lias sued me for ?12..">(>,
which I claimed was excessive for a
case of cholera morbus." says R. White,
of Conchella, Cal. "At the trial he
praised his medical skill and medicine.
I asked him if it was not Chamberlain's
-Colic, /nolera and Diarrhoea Remedy !
ho xy t as I had good reason to Ixilieve
it /.ts, and he would not say under oath
that it was n^t." No doctor could use
a better remedy than this in a case of
cholera morbus, it never fails. Sold by
The Kaufmanu Drug Co.

All the blood in your body passes through {
your kidneys once every three minutes.
fThe kidneys are your j
blood purifiers, they filter
out the waste or !
impurities in the blood. I
If they are sick or out ;
of order, they fail to do
their work.
Pains, aches and rheumatism
come from excess
of uric acid in the
blocd, cue to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney- j
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys.,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their beginning
in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets Better Than
a Doctor's Prescription.
Mr. J. W. Turner, of Truhart, Ya.,
says that Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets have done him more good I
than anything he could get from the
doctor. If any physician in this country
was able to compound a medicine that
would produce such gratifying results
in cases of stomach troubles, biliousness
or constipation, his whole time would lie
used in preparing this one medicine. For

Trestle Burned in Bart,
Special to the State.
Alston, June 15?Train No. 9,
Southern Rdlwuy, which left Columbia
at 710 this morning for
Asheville was saved from running
into a burning bridge a few miles
o o
above Alston by a negro who used a
red flannel petticoat r?s a fhg.
The bridge was seen to be on fire
about 6 o'clock this inorniDg and this
negro and 6ome others stood guard to
warn approaching trains. He said
nothing was being done to check the
fire and about 180 feet of the trestle
bad been destroyed The conductor
of the train at once organized bis
crew and volunteer passengers into a
bucket brigade, using the buckets on
the train, and made an < ffjrt to subdue
the fire and save the balance of
the bridge. The fire was finally gotten
under control, but not until considerable
more tban half the bridge

UrtU ueetl U6BUUVCU. JLUW nuxi laiir,
all rivited together, were bent and
presented an ugly appearance as tbey
were stretched across the chasm.
The train was backed to Alston, four
miles distant, and proceeded on its
journey via Greenville. The train
was well filled with passengers and
had the fire not been seen and the
train stopped the loss of life might
have been appalling.
It is learned that the trestle has been
repaired. The trestle was the PeachPeacbtrte
creek trestle. Passengers
on the southbound train were transferred.
Soap from a Tree.
United States Consul Mania ut Nottingham,
England, has furnished the
Department of State with an account
of an enterprise in Algeria to manufacture
natural soap on a large scale
from a tree known as "sapindus
utilis/' This plant, which has long
been known in JapaD, China and India,
bears a fruit of about the size
a horse chestDut, Rmooth and round.
The color varies from a yellow green
to brown. The inner part is cf a
dark color and has an oily kernal.
The tree bears fruit in its sixth vevr
and yields from 35 to 250 pounds of
fruit, which can easily be harvested
in the fall, liy using water or alcohol
the snponacous ingredient of the
fruit is extracted. The cost of production
is said to be small and the
soap, on account of possessing no
alkaline qalities, is claimed to be superior
to ordinary soap of commerce.
