"Is There ETo Balm in G-ilead?" __ i "Is There No Physieian There; Then Why Is the Hurt of My Daughter Isreal Not Healed?" i To the Editor of the Di?pstcfc: Pjease give me a short space in the 1 columns of vour pipir to call atterJ - . r f i _ m tioo to what. l iear is a vioiauoo - i the Dispensary Law in our sectioL; and the effects of the law itself in our community. I have always thought the law morally wrong and not the solution of the liquor traffic in our State, but that is only a personal S opinion and I would like to see the ? law as well as ail others upon our j statute books enforced, so we can get | the beet effects that are in them and i to get the best that would come from i them if enforced. Ten yearB ago our community. I will, say, was as peaceable as any section of this State. It is true our lands were not fertile and we had not great wealth, but, every per bo h live d at borne and at peace with all men. We bad but lit tie if any profanity. Our Sabbaths were regarded as a day of rest. A - large majority of oar children were in school during the winter and we were on as high a plane of citizenship as the people of any other com* munifcy, with everyone striving to improve themselves, improve their community and raise their children to the glory of God and an honor to their country. Now conditions have undergone a change. Where drunkenness and profanity were not known before, these evils now prevail to a Targe extent. They have taken charge of the community; peace and order have given way to them; Sabbaths are no longer regarded as holy days, but on the other hand they are observed as days for the UDgGdly to congregate together and to work evil and practice vici; our schools are not patronized; men whose characters have heretofore been upon suspicion, have become suspicions characters, while whiskey is being hauled in here by the wagons that make trips to Augusta fn quently suppose bv peddlers, and snipped here from North Carolina and other places in kegs, and measured out to different parties regardless of age, race or sex. Idleness has taken the i place of industry, while personal ! honor seems to have been forgotten. These seems to have been some of j the changes that have taken place j during the past few years, since the old demon of whiskey has been introduced here and turned loose with no restraint of the law to bar its progress. ? i ^ ! 1 nave no accusation to mas* ; against any one personally, Dor do I j mean to say that any oDe sells whig- j key for a profit; but what I mean is j that its loathsome presence is Been in our hitherto peaceful community and its evil effects are felt; that beyond a doubt one persoQ transfers the vile stuff to another and that some one is responsible for its presence here. Of this I am certain that every one who is a friend to law and order will testify to. I trust that those whose duty it is to. see that the dispensary law is enforced and prevent such outrages will use their best endeavors to detect the guilty ones and bring them to justice, in order that our people might again enjoy the blessings of peace, honor and prosperity, and our Sabbaths at least be free from the earnival of drink, from profanity and ; boisterous conduct of the crowds that | congregate to destroy the quietude j and happiness of God loving men | and women.

It there is not a marriage of some j kind on this route ere long, eorne ; , i ^ Health of Am A Subject Much Discus The Future of a Cc Health of Its Women. Airs. TC Wit fadstn At the New York State Assembly of Mothers, a prominent New York doctor 1 told the 500 women present that healthy i American women were so rare as to be almost extinct, * ' This seems to be a sweeping state- ? ment of the condition of American \ women. Yet how many do you know z who are perfectly well and do not have s some trouble arising from a derange- 1 ment of the female organism which manifests itself in headaches, back aches, nervousness, that bearing-down , feeling, painful or irregular menstrua- * tion, leucorrhoea, displacement of the j uterus, ovarian trouble, indigestion or ^ sleeplessness ? There is a tried and > true remedy for all these ailments. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com- j pound has restored more American ^ women to health than all other reme- 1 dies in the world. It regulates, } strengthens and cures diseases of the ^ female organism as nothing else can. j For thirty years it has been curing the worst forms of female complaints. ( Such testimony as the following ; should be convincing. 1 Mrs. T. C. Willadsen, of Manning, la., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:? , "1 can truly say that you have saved my life and I cannot"express my gratitude to you in words. For two years I spent lofts of money J in doctoring without auv benefit for men- i strual irregularities and I had given up all l hopes of ever being well again, but I was 1 persuaded to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and three bottles have restored me to perfect health. Had it not been 1 for you I would have been in my grave j i w-aay. ;J SLyd2a E Ptnkham's Vegetable Com pi etty good signs will fdl.

George, Derrick. Shealy and Corley are (fficerem whom the county feels proud. You don't have to wait an hour for a receipt, stand half a day before yoa can make a tax return, wait a month for the recording of & deed, or escape far before voa CiD be recaptured and landed in j til. You hear men complain of high taxes, well, a day or two in the court room will convince any sane man that, much time is killed and wasted Ail jurors and witnesses were summoned to meet at Lexington, C H , at 10 o'clock a m , at the last term of court We were there, but lo, and behold, where was tbe judge? He did not arrive and open court until 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Had we been thus late we would have had our pay forfeited, if nothing else. Tbe court was delayed four hours. Tee expenses of tb* court per day i ben was about $125 C^urt did Dot bold over G4 boors per day, this would make about $76expeD*e waiting od one mar; then couple with fbis tbe slowness to dispatch business, etc, aDd you can readily see where, your taxes go. Now its a poor rule that woDt work both ways. Tbe judge should pay the expense of the court caused by his own individual delay and forfeit bis pay for the d*y. Don't you think I am right, Mr. Editor? Tbe Solicitor had bis part ready, j the Clerk bad everything in readiness j and there was no delay od their part 1 and. especially that, of the Clerk's, j G?ve us more promptness in our j onr'F, le*? time killing by slow i judges, civility and contention by i ?be l3?rte one-borse lawyers and we J will have less cases on tbe docket J and less taxes to a certain extent.

Pinkham's J Tegetable Com pound has restored my health inn I am so grateful for it that I want every mfferin^ woman to know what LydiaE.Pinklam's Vegetable Compound will do for her." "When women are troubled with rregular, suppressed or painful menstruation, weakness, .leucorrhcea, displacement or ulceration of the womb, that bearing-down feeling, inflamma;ion of the ovaries, backache, bloating, or flatulency), general debility, indigestion, and nervous prostration, or are oesetwith such symptoms as dizziness, faintness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, "all-cone" and "want-to be-left-alone" feelings, blues, and hopelessness, they r.hould remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at jnce removes such troubles. No other medicine irt the world has received such unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a record of cures of female troubles. Refuse to buy any uther medicine, for you need the best. A light heart, a cheerful countenance, and all the charms of grace and beauty are dependent upon proper action of the txxlily organs. You cannot look well unless you feel well. Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women bo write her for advice. Her advice and medicine have restored thousands to health. Address, Lynn, Mass. Mind Succeeds Where Others Fall J. B.
