An unconfirmed rumor from Ma* 9 nils, nnder date of May 25, says _ that the Russian and Japanese fieete have met south of Formosa, and the Japanese were defeated. This ru'; " mor should be taken with a great many pounds of salt. The anti dispensaries are jubiliant over the recent defeat of that "moral institution" in Pickens county. It is the concensus of opinion, however; that the prospects of the growth and flourishing of blind tigers and illicit distilleries has a great deal to do with the rejoicing. A $10,000 damaged suit has been filed against the Palmetto Cotton Mill of Columbia. The suit was bronght by Frank G. Tompkins and A. F.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to care in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrn uore is ine oniy positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby .destroying the foun. daticn of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work.

Gray, of Calhoun, Ga., writes: ' 'My wife had a very aggravated cough, which kept her awake nights.

Subtraction. A teacher in a Western public school was giving her class the first lesson in subtraction. "Now, in order to subtract," she explained, "things have to always be of the same denomination. For in stance, we couldn't take three apples from^tur pears nor six horses from nine dogs " A hand went up in the back part of the room.

What To Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder ! and every part of the urinary passage. J It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use o. liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

Free Bridges Will Be Good for Both Columbia and Lexington. Columbia Evening "Record. In referring to the business advatage to Columbia and a large number of prosperous citizens of Lexington in having a free bridge across the river, we mentioned only the Congaree bridge. There is still another of equal, if not greater importance?the Broad river bridge. That bridge is the outlet for the trade of the most prosperous section of Lexington, a portion of the county so closely allied with Columbia that at one time there was a sentiment, more or less pronounced, for it to unite with Richland county. It would pay both Lexington and Richland to own the Broad river bridge ana toe uongaree bridge. The advantage will be a yearly saving of some thousand of dollars to the farmers of Lexington who trade with Columbia, their natural market. The subject of free bridges is one of great importance to Columbia, and it would ba well to take steps to see for what the two bridges could be purchased, and then there will be a basis for future action. o A Good Suggestion. Mr. C. B. Wainwright, of Lemon City, Fla., has written the manufacturers that much better results are obtained from the use of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Bemedy in cases of pains in the stomach, colic and cholera morbus by taking it in water as hot as can be drank. That when taken in this way the effect is double in rapidity. "It seems to get at the right spot instantly," he says. For sale by The Kaufmann Drug Co. Hawaiian Strike Sericus. Honolulu, May 24?A message from Lahama island says the trouble with the striking Japanese plantation laborers has become more serious. Additional troops from Honolulu will probably be needed. Twenty-three hundred Japanese have weapons enough to make them dangerous opponents to the small companies of soldiers and forty or fifty policemen on the island in the event of conflict. | The latest advices are that the officers of the militia are preparing to attack the Japanese camps. | % mm % | Why Suffer from Rheumatism? Why suffer from rheumatism when one application of Chamberlain's tain Balm will relieve the pain? The quick relief which this liniment affords makes rest and sleep possible, and that alone is worth many times its cost Many who have used it hoping only for a short relief from suffering have been happily surprised to fi: . that after awhile the relief became permanent. Mrs. V. H. Leggett, of Yum Ynin, Tennessee, TJ. S. A.. writes: "I am a great sufferer from rheumatism, all over from head to foot, and Chamberlain's Pain Balm is the only thing that will relieve the pain." For sale by The Kaufmann Drug Co.
