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. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers that they nffer
One Hundred Dollarkfbr any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

Saved by Dynamite.
Sometimes a flaming city is saved by
dynamiting a space that the Are can't
cross. Sometimes a cough hangs on so
long, you feel as if nothing but dynamite
would cure it. Z. T. Gray, of Calhoun,
Ga., writes: ' 'My wife had a very aggravated
cough, which kept her awake nights.
Two physicians could not help her; so she
took Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds, which eased
her cough, gave her sleep and Anally cured
her." Strictly scientific cure for bron
chitis and la grippe. At The Kanfmann

Mors Bomb Throwing.
London, May 24.?A correspondent
of the Central News at St.
Petersburg, wires that a bomb throwing
occurred at Sierlec, a town about
fifty miles from Warsaw, at midnight,
in which a number of police and a
number of citizens were injured.
The bombj^it is reported by the
Publisher's Press correspondent, was
thrown at the police master, who
was seriously injured. According
to the latter's dispatch, but three
persons were injured. 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.
"Teacher," shouted a small boy,
"can't you take four quarts of milk
from three cows?"
That's the Question.
Saluda Times.
Where does out tax money go?
Saluda county is reported to be $18,500
in debt. We ' have the worst
roads and bridges of any county in
the State. Would it not be well for
our people to stop their wild run for
15 cents cotton and look more to?
wards the distribution of our taxes ?

trouble; too
to pass it or pain
1 i7i the back is
also convincing proof tliat the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
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. Sold by druggists
in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle and a
about it, both sent free

make any mistake, but remember the
name, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and
the address Binghamton, N. Y.
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

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.

| 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.
