Georgetown Letter.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
A few months ago I gave you a
short sketch of Georgetown aod
liosemary, and would have taken
you a trip out into the logging woods
camps before now but for the continued
illness of my "better half."
Am glad to say that she is now on
the home run for health once more.
Thanks and congratulations. Now,
Mr. Editor and friend of your paper,
we will take a little trip into the
woods.
Off from the main line of the
Georgetown and Western railroad
leads numerous switches, spurs and
lines of railroad anywhere from ten
to thirty miles long. These lines
takes ue to the several different
oamps and through the finest spruce
pine and cypress trees that ever a
saw butted up against All trees are
sawed down and not chopped down.
There are eight of these camps placed
around in the different bays and
most convenient to the beBt timber.
These bays have curious names, such
as Ki lsark, Gapway, Boeta and Oak
Ridge bays. There are about one
hundred and fifty men at each camp
and are well organize with a foreman,
commissary clerk, stableman, camp
cleaner, cook, log scaler, sawing crew,
loading crew, one engine and crew
and about one hundred log cars.
There is aleo a skidder machine with
Bach camp and is used to pull logs
cut of marshy places where mules
cannot work. A skidder is first cousin
bo a derrick and draws logs at a distance
of four or five hundred yards.
There are about forty mules. A veterinary
doctor is employed to look after
the stock. I visit each camp
once a week and ease the pain and
Eight the attacks of malaria, etc, etc.
All accident cases are brought immediately
to Bosemary on engine or
motor car where we have a fairly
good hospital. This is a good field
for surgery both in major and minor
surgery. I have done many amputations
with only a negro man to
bold and another to give the anesthetic.
I shuddered at the inconveniences
at first but now it is just as
aasy. The number of one armed
and one legged men chasing around
here is proof of successful amputations.
The medicinal treatment is
Dot as satisfactory as the surgical for
these negroes down here have taken
bo many pills that their joints have
all become "ball bearing" and they
are crying ont for "drinking" medicine.
I/quid medicine is too easy
spilled to carry much of it around in
a medicine case. Nearly every medioine
can be and is made into a pill
or tablet now-a-days and why carry
liquid; but you can't make them believe
otherwise but that all pills are
cathartics. All employees pay one
dollar per month medical fees and
they want their money's worth.
There is a camp at Rosemary 'and
Borne evening they are lined at the
office forty feet deep. I have only
to look up and out comes a tongue,
and that tongue shows he has been
Bating hominy and chunk meat.
Hominy and butt meat for the negroes
and beef and eggs for the white.
I always pull my hat to any old cow
in the road and I can't look a hen
Btraight in the face.
Everything is quiet and am anticipating
a nice time on Pawley Island
this summer. Come down, Mr. Eiitor.
Good luck to all.
E P. Derrick.
How to Ward OS Old Age.
The most successful way of warding oft
the approach of old age is to maintain a
vigorous digestion, mis can oe done oy
eating only food suited to your ago and
occupation, and when any disorder of the
stomach appears take a dose of Chamber*
Iain's Stomach and Liver Tablets to correct
it. If you have a weak stomach or
are troubled with indigestion, you will
find these Tablets to be just what yon
need. For sale by The Kaufmann Drug
Co.
Pledged Cotton Growers.
Secretary Armstrong, of the Southern
Cotton Growers' Association, was
in Columbia last week in conference
with the officers of the South Carolina
Association. He was on a trip
through the South perfecting and
systematizing the statistics that are
coming from the various State asso
ciations in order to secure a more
thorough and reliable general organization.
He says the figures he
has gathered so far show a membership
of 1,270,000 already filed, 800,
000 of which are on record st the
central office with post office addresses.
He says that two-thirds of this
membership represented farmers
who have pledged a reduction of 25
per cent.
Mr. Armstrong told of plans which
had been perfected for a meeting of
State presidents to be held in New
Orleans the 30th of this month,
when these presidents would report
OAfnonrn I
iu xxai vie du&uciii ao tu uuu w/Avogv
io each State, and he said that the
thorough manner in which these
figures would be brought together
would make the general report more
reliable, self evidently, than any
government report that had yet been
issued. Step by step the report of
acreage will come from precinct to
township and thence to State organization.
Three farmers and three
others interested in manufacturing
concerns make a report from each
precinct. This general report at
New Orleans will be made three
days ahead of the government report.
The coming comparison of
the two reports will be most interesting.
A Silent Tongue.
The best of us talk too much.
"The essence of power is reserve,"
said a man who knew.
Many a reputation has been built
on silence. Many a one is spoiled
through rushing prematurely and
volubly into speech.
It is 3afe to be silent ,when your
words would wound. "Faithful are
the wounds of a friend," says the old
proverb, but one wants to be mighty
Bare one's friend needs the wounding
and that we are qualified to administer
it.
Keep Btill when your words will
discourage. It is infinitely better
to be dumb forever than to make one
fellow being less able to cope with
life.
Keep still when your words will
ncite to anger or discomfort. An
incredible amount of breath is used
in the evil practice of trying to make
our friends dislike their friends.
Never speak when what you have
to say is merely for the purpose of
exhalting yourself.
Shut your lips with a key when
you are inspired to babble incontinently
of yourself?your ailments,
accomplishments, relations, loves,
hatreds, hopes and desires. It is
only to the choice, rare friend that
one may speak of these things without
becoming a fool.

Aiken Trolley Car Wrecked.
Augusta, Ga., May 25 ?Two were
killed, one fatally injured, two probably
fatally and three slightly injured
in a collision tonight between
a passenger trolley car and a Louisville
and Nashville coal car on the
Augusta-Aiken railway in a stretch
of woods some miles from Augusta
on the South Carolina side of the
river near Clearwater. The coal car,
which was being conveyed to the
power bouse, broke away from the
motor car at the top of a hill and
swept downward for several hundred
yards, acquiring such momentum
that when it collided with the passenger
car returning to Augusta it
ground the lighter car almost into
kindling wood.
Physicians were sent from here in
a special car and the injured brought
to this city, where they were transferred
to the city hospital.
Mechen, former superintendent of
the free delivery service of the post
office department, has been sentenced
to two years in the penitentiary for
fraud.

"IT SAVED MY LIFE"
PRAISE FOR A FAMOUS MEDICINE
Mrs. Willadsen Tells How She Tried Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Just
in Time.
Mrs. T. C. Willadsen, of Manning1,
Iowa, writes to Mrs. Pinkham:
Dear Mrs. Pinkliam :?
" I can truly say that you have saved my
life, and I cannot express my gratitude to
you in words.
3/
"Before I wrote, to you, telling you how I
felt, I had doctored for over two years steady
and spent lots of money on medicines besides,
but it all failed to help me. My monchly periods
had ceased and I suffered much pain,
with fainting spells, headache, backache and
bearing-down pains, and I was so weak I
could hardly keep around. As a last resort
I decided to write you and try Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and I am so
thankful that I did, for after following your
instructions, which you sent me free of all
charge, my monthly periods started ; I am
regular and in perfect health. Had it not
been for you I would be in my grave to-day.
" I sincerely trust that this letter may lead
every suffering woman in the country to
writ? you for help as I did"
When women are troubled with Irregular
or painful menstruation, weakness,
leucorrhcea, displacement or ulceration
of the womb, that bearingdown
feeling, inflammation of the ovaries,
backache, flatulence, general debility,
indigestion and nervous prostration,
they should remember there is
one tried and true remedy. Lydia E,
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once
removes such troubles.
No other female medicine in the world
has received such widespread and unqualified
endorsement. Refuse all substitutes.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women
to write her for advice. She has guided
thousands to health. Address, Lynn,
Mass.
