TEE LEXINGTON DI^ATCH. Wednesday, April 12, 1905. At Home and Abroad. T. X. L. cures neuragia. The fruifc crop is safe yet Thursday and Friday were cold days in April. , T. X. L. cures rheumatism. The people of Chapin sre bitterly opposed to the re-opening of the dispensary in that town, and it is probable that the dispensary will go to one of the nearby towns. We had a hog killing time in maDy sections of the county last week. Many took advantage of the cold snap to finish butchering so as to save their bacon. Don a yellow garter on Easter morn, And never then '11 you be lovelorn; Instead o' that love 'il shine on you, And you'll be engaged ere the year is through. Fatal mistakes have been discov ?red in several of the Acts passed at the last session of the Legislature? one of which affects the judicial system and the other the rights of labor. Mr. J. B. Hook, living on Lexington Rural Free Delivery No. 3, and one of the bustling farmers on Red Bank, was in town Thursday and kindly remembered the printer with the amount of his subscription. /The first warehouse to be built in the State for the storage of cotton, as recommended by the Cotton Growers' association, will be erected in Marlborough county.

Keisler, while here in attendance upon the meeting of ths County Board of Control Thursday, dropped in to see us. Beed is a fine business man and a good citizen and we are always glad to meet him and shake his hand. More hog and hominy and less cotton has been the practice of Lexing. ton county farmers for years. Farmers in other sections ' will find this plan a profitable one if they will follow it, more so, at least, than to , have their corn cribs and smoke house in the West. Mrs. A. M. A. Biedlinger, of Columbia, has succeeded to the business of her late huBband, J. B. Biedlinger, 8nd will make some improvements oh her bakery plant. Qur people are informed that they can get pies, cakes and bread there k for picnics, parties and barbecues. Mr. B I N. Hicks, who has been on a visit to his daughter, Mrs. JohnBon, in Greenville, has returned vnminor and deolftrinc that while Greenville was a good country, yet there was no place on God's footstool like LeziDgton. Mr. Simon P. Taylor, one of Lexington's promising yonng son's, has decided to cast his lot with the people of Woodbine, Ga., and those people will find him worthy of their * confidence. The Dispatch follows him to his new home. A lively crowd of the Leesville Coeds. spent All Fool's .day chasing the finy tribe of Mr. R L. Keisler's pond. Having grown weary of the rural sports they wended their way to the Griffith house in Gilbert and were royally entertained by the proprietress, Mrs. Drafts. The Lexington Dispatch is what it pretends to be?A fearless journal devoted to the best interests of South Carolina in general and Lexington county in particular?and we are glad to know that the people recognize this fact and are supporting us in a substantial and practical manner by giving us a liberal support as well as moral encouragement. We dare say that there are but few homes in the county but what the Dispatch enters as a welcome guest. F. 0. Sessions recently shot Belle Sessions, his paramour five times and then blew out his own brains, at Homewood, a small station on the Chadbourn and Conway railroad, in TTnrrv cnrmfcv. this State, about four miles north of Conway. She lived until the next morning after being shot. The Session woman, although the mother of two illegitimate children, the younger of whom is said to be the child of Sessions, was between 17 and 18 years of age.

Y. 25 Dots from Lover Edisto. To the Editor of the Dispatch: I noticed one of your correspondents said nearly all the land was prepared for cotton in this neighborhood, but should he come along now be would see that every other row is planted to corn of a great part of the land that looked like it was fixed for cotton. Some are through planting corn? the rest are planting. The trustees of School District ' No. 39, have given Mr. J. John Jef coat, the contract to build an addition to the Clay Springs school house, which is to be 30x30 feet. The prospects are bright for a big fruit crop.

The next time you happen near Buch a pair or group listen abd hear if ahrmt, everv tenth word is about what "he said." If it is, you have found some more of the "he said" girls, and they are not the nicest little girls in the world. The "be said" girls are likely to loiter downdowntown after school too late to help their mothers with the afternoon work. They are likely to wear better clothes than their fathers can afford, so that the neighbors wonder what their mothers can be thinking about The "he said" girls also too often think more of the boys than of j their books, and frequently fail to get through school. They are in for a good time, and have nothing in their beads but hairpins and twosteps. Sometimes nature takes a girl out of the "he said" family and makes a fine woman of her, but generally she gets to going out to parties and is developed before her time, and either marries and fades at twenty or hangs on after all the other girls are married off, and takes generation after generation of young boys to raise by hand, and becomes known as "grandma" in the crowd. mere is nocning so sweet ub a simple, frank, open-hearted girl. But tbe boy-struck girl i3 an abomination. The whole matter rests with the girl's mother. Sbe can either bring up one of the ''he said" girls or she can have a daughter to be proud of.?Emporia Gazeete. About Rheumatism. There are few diseases that inflict more torture than rheumatism and there is probably no disease fo!r which such a a varied and useless lot of remedies have been suggested. To say that it can be cured is, therefore, a bold statement to make, but Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which enjoys an extensive sale, has met with great success in the treatment of this disease. One application of Pain Balm will relieve the pain, and hundreds of sufferers have testified to permanent cures by its use. Why suffer when Pain Balm affords such quick relief and costs but a trifle?
