Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney and Bladder Trenble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discourages and lesseusambition; beauty, t t vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear -when the kidneys are out of order or disKidnev trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncom- \ uion for a child to be born afflicted with v/eak kidneys. If the child urinates too often, if the urine scalds tiie flesh, or if, when the child reaches an j age when it should be able to control the I passage.' it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant v trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sold by druggists, in fifty- fCb/PT cent and one-dollar *?f?} size bottles. Yon may aaB5w have a sample bottle by mail free, also a Home of Smunp-Boot pamphlet telling all about Swamp-Root, including many of the thousands of testimonial letters received from sufferers cured. In writing Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., be sure and mention this paper. Don't make any mistake, but remember the name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the ad dress, Binghamton, N. Y., on every bottle. v PROFESSIONAL CARPS. C. K. EFfBD. F. E. DBEHEB. ?FIBD & DREHER, ATTORNEYS AT LAW, LEXINGTON C. H. 8. C. Will practice in all the Courts. Business solicited.

Wednesday, September 6,1905. "Alcohol and the Medical Pro fession." j After the Dispensary What? Mr. C. W. Saleely, in speaking of; the changed attitude of the medical profession regarding the "virtues and functions of Alcohol", in the Lit. erary Digest of August 5tb, 1905, nave "Tf f.hfiro won anv aubiect of i W-TW. j 4 . which they knew Jess than another i * * it was the action of drugs on the normal body; and conspicuously was this true of the action of alcohol. Now, it is the peculiarity of this compound that all the indications which it appears to furnish to empiricism and superficiality are falsified by serious and systematic study. Nevertheless our professional forefathers held certain beliefs and inculcated them into a willing audience. The laitv?Bmall blame to it?holds these b? iiefs almost without reservation tcUay, but experimental pharmacuology supported by every other relevant branch of modern science? experimental psycology, clinical medicine, the study of insanity, criminology and a host besides now repudiates them. Thus it comes about that the first gropings for the truth did not proceed from the medical profession ?which thus resembles all other institutions and authorities and established things?and though the first medical men who, sixty years ago, stood up agajnst alcohol and lies, were laughed at and branded, like the worthy of all ages, as cranks; yet recently some fifteen thousand doctors presented a petition to the government praying that the truth about alcohol be taught in our schools, while the leaders of the profession in this and every other country have declared themselves against|alcohol-erstwhiie the vaunted panacea?and last week there was held in London a medical conference, presided over by the King's physician, at which it was resolved that the profession must set its shoulder to the almost superhuman task of educating the Board of Education in f.Vift mftfifip."" Mr Sftlflolv a/Mb* "TKA facts I have stated are disputed by no competent person,*' and he is happy in the thought that "when we have educated our educators," alcohol will have no one to claim for it powers which it does not possess. Just now some few editors, lawyers and sundry politicians are prophesying as to what we will have when the dispensary is removed. Their prophecies are childish or wicked. If they really believe that all law is in the dispensary, they are to be pittied. If they are encouraging defiance of the law they should pause. I submit herewith a few helpful questions by Hon. B. W. Grouch, of Saluda answered by Hon. B. A. Cooper, Solioitor of the 8th Circuit: QUERIES. 1st. Under the law of South Carolina as it now stand can whiskey and other intoxicating drinks be Bold legally in any other manner and through any other channel than the dispensarj? 2nd. If & dispensary be voted out of a county under the "Brice Bill'' can whiskey be sold in such county lawfully under tbe law of the State as it now stands? 3rd. Can a return ever be made to the old bar room system in South Carolina and whiskey be sold therefrom lawfully under the constitution of South Carolina as it now stands? 4th. Can whiskey be sold under high license in this State in any county voting out the dispensary under the law as it now stands? In other words, if a county now having a dispensary vote out the dispensary could whiskey be sold in such county legally under the laws of this State as that law is now written? 5th. Before the high license syB tern of selling intoxicating liquors could obtain in any county in South Carolina which may vote out the dispensary, would it not first be neceBsary for the legislature to enact legislation allowing whiskey to be sold under high license?" ANSWEBS. 1,2, 3 and 4. To your first, Becontl, third and fourth questions I answt r no. 5th. To your fifth question I an wer yes. To recapitulate. As Is understand the law in this S'ate, at present whiskey cannot be sold in any county or town except through a legally authorized dispensary. It therefore follows that under the law as it now 6tande, if the dispensary be voted out any county, whiskey ?* i t i ii_ . i J i. couia DOC D6 iegauy eoiu in suco connt v without legislative pnactment. Very truiy your*, R A. Cooper, Solicitor 8 h Circuit." If we spurn the attitude of psycologisfc and pharmacologist as to the hurtful effects of alcohol on the mind and body, and disregard the interpretation of the law by those authorize to enforce it, nothing remains for us but to hasten downward to where depravity meets its own judgment.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over the diseases of womankind is not because it is a stimulant, not because it is a palliative, but simply because it is the most wonderful tonic and reconstructor ever discovered to act directly upon the generative organs, positively curing disease and restoring* health and vigor. Marvelous cures are reported from all parts of the country by women who have been cured, trained nurses who have witnessed cures and physicians who have recognized the virtue of Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, and are fair enough to give credit where it is due. If physicians dared to be frank and open, hundreds ol' them would acknowledge that they constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pinkliam's Vegetable Compound in severe, cases of female ills, as they know by experience it can be relied upon to effect a cure. The following letter proves it. Dr. S. C. Brigham, of 4 Brigham Park, Fitchburg, Mass., writes : "It gives me great pleasure to say that I have found Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound very efficacious, and often prescribe it in my practice for female difficulties. " My oldest daughter found it very beneficial for uterine trouble some time ago," and my youngest daughter is now taking it for a female weakness, and is surely gaining in health and strength. " I freely advocate it as a most reliable specific in all diseases to which w< nen are subject, and give it honest endorsement." Women who are troubled with pain ful or irregular menstruation, Dioatmg (or flatulence), leucorrhoea, falling, inflammation or ulceration of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that bearing-down feeling, dizziness, faintness, indigestion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take immediate action to ward off the serious consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and then write to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn. Mass., for further free advice. No living person has had the benefit of a wider experience in treating female ills. She has guided thousands to health. Every suffering woman should ask for and follow her advice if she wants to be strong and well.
