To the Editor of the Dispatch: White Rock, June 27, 1905 Id the last issue of The Dispatch we noticed an article, "Notes from Hilton," signed "H", in which he says. "the Lutheran church at White Rock has been closed since Rev. Mr. Ballentine left." From this article I fear that Mr. H. is not very well posted in church affairs and especially in the workings of dear old Beth* 1 pastorate, to which pastorate belongs Mb Vernon or White Rjck church, or he would certainly not make any such charges and statements as above quoted. We wish to assert that the doors of White Rock church have not been closed. We are sure that Rev. Ballentine has realized his woids in bo far as they referred to the church at White Rock, and we feel sure i he same will apply to all the churchf s in Bethel pastorate, in so far as be expected until the services of a regular pastor could be secured in Bethel pastorate. The doors of White Rock church have been opened twice each month for Sunday school, which has been well attended and much interest manifested by all who attended. We have had two very appropriate and interesting addresses made in the interest of the Sunday school and church work. The Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary socie y meets in the church once a month i and a children's missionary society meets once a month. On the fourth Sunday evening in May we had an enjoyable and highly interesting sermon preached by Rav Dr. A. J. Bowers, of Newberry College. This service was well attended. Mr. H. errs when he says that White Rock church has called Rev; Mr. Kaigler. White Rook church is only a member or church in Bethel ] pastorate and has never thought of calling a pastor outside of the old Mother Pastorate?Bethel Pastorate. This child?White Rock church? did heartily co-operate with the old mother pastorate in calling Rev. Mr. Kaigler to serve as pastor in this charge and we ever pray that the good Lord may see fit to send Rev. Mr. Kaigler, or some other good msn to take charge and break the bread of life to the people of this grand old Bethel pastorate. Just here we wish to add that our church at White Rock has had the honor and pleasure of opening its doors to the Joint Council of dear old Bethel pastorate for the purpose of calling a pastor to take up the work just where the Rev. Mr. Bailentine left off. With these words of information to the public, our remarks close, with the best wishes to the good old Dispatch an<3|che Editor. An Old R ader. < White Rock, S.

There a little life was nourished All a pleasant summer through; There it lived and grew and flourished In the sun and rain and dew. Glad it roved and sweet it slumbered. Orb of day and stars of eve Came and went by it unnumbered; Naught was there to fret or grieve. So the little life waxed stronger. Lusty grew and roamed around. And the little legs grew longer As they tramped along the ground. But there came, one day. a stranger To this sylvan, quiet spot. And he saw the hillside ranger, Marked its quiet, happy lot. Marked the little life so lusty Growing there in sun and shade. As the autumn days grew gusty He a fiendish bargain made. And the little life was taken, Rendered up to appetite; .

Among the champion heavyweight thinkers there is a difference of opinion as to whether we should string along the innocent children with the pipe dream or come out and tell them the naked truth in regard to Santa Claus. While it might look cruel to have the truth going around naked at this season of the year, yet truth is not a tender plant, being used to rough treatment, and that consideration need not CLuei in. The argument used against Santa is that it is wrong to tell even the smallest children a lie and that it tends to destroy their confidence in their parents. This argument is generally used by parents who tell their children that a bear will get them if they are x naughty. On the whole, perhaps it tends to develop the child to tell him about Santa Claus. The shock he gets when he discovers the truth may cause him to be suspicious ever after and may prevent him from buying alluring mining stock later in life. Her Specialty.

Love in a cottage is a combination that is hard to beat A woman is careful not to spring her wrappers and her liair curlers on a man until after she has married him. ^ Suppose that world's fairs are not financial successes, they generally enrich the language with some new slang. Unless lie forgets to wind his watch a man only thinks that he is in love. When a man gets something for nothing he generally finds on examining it closer that it is nothing after all. , A stenographer who can keep up with a woman may be said to be well equipped for the struggle. A lazy man is often greatly fatigued by being compelled to dodge opportunities to work. A boy is really sorry that he has been unkind to his mother when he sees her baking cookies.

TWO OPEN LETTERS IMPORTANT TO MARRIED WOMEN I Mrs. Mary Dimmlck of Washington tells How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Made Her Well. It is with great pleasure we publish the following letters, as they convincingly prove the claim we have so many times made in our columns that Mrs. Bf: : : -Jf.j:f; : :><.:j:f:j: Qoi K '^'^M Pinkham, of Lvnn, Mass., is fnlly qualified to give helpful advice to sick womeni Read Mrs. Dimmick's letters. Her first letter: Dear Mrs. Pinkham &? " I have been a sufferer for the past eight years with a trouble which first originated from painful menstruation?the pains were excruciating, with inflammation and ulcera* tion of the womb. The doctor says I must have an operation or I cannot live. I do not want to submit to an operation if I can possibly avoid it. Please nelp me."?Mrs. Mary Dunmick, "Washington, D. C. Her second letter; Dear Mrs. Pinkham :? " You will remember my condition when I last wrote vou, and that the doctor said I must have an operation or I could not live. I received your land letter and followed your advice very carefully and am now entirely well. As my case was so serious it seems a miracle that I am cured. I know that I owe not only my health but my life to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and to your advice. I can walk miles without an ache or a pain, and I wish every suffering woman I would read this letter and realize what you can do for them."?Mrs. Mary Dimmick, 59th and East Capitol Streets, Washington, D. C. How easy it was for Mrs. Dimmick to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and how little it cost her?a two-cent stamp. Yet how valuable was the reply! As Mrs. Dimmick says?it saved her life. Mrs. Pinkham has on file thousands of just such letters as the above, and offers ailing women helpful advice. \ FOR THE TOILET. | i i g Sweet Soaps, Castile Soaps, Per- g fumery from Hoyt's 5c. size |j h German Cologne to the (| Finest Extracts,Toilet g Powders, Pomade ?
