This u npleasant , 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.

We have never heard of a single instance of a cold resulting in pneumonia when Foley's Honey and Tar has been taken. It not only stops the cough but heals and strengthens the l^ngs. Ask for Foley's Honey and Tar and refuse any substitute offered. Dr. C. J. Bishop, of Agnew, Mich., writes: "I have used Foley's Honey and Tar in three very severe cases of pneumonia with good results in every case." ' The Kaufmami Drug Co. Vardaman Whips Convict.

Spartanburg, Jan. 16 ?It is reported here that the attorneys for the defeoce in the case of the Stale vs. George Hasty, who shot and kill ed Milo Bennett and Abbott Davison at Gaffcey, will move for a change of venue on the ground that public sentiment in Gaffoey is strong against the defendant, that it will be impossible for him to secure a fair and impartial trial. Miss Yerne Sheridan, who it is alleged was insulted by Hasty, which led to the killing of Bennett ar.d Davison, is in Spartanburg. Miss Sheridan is travelling with the Browns, in the Town Company, which company is playing in Guffney tonight.

Native* of Arctic Alaska After the Hunting: Seaxon I* Over ? The Ketnrn of the Fleet to Shore. Writing of the industrial and social methods and customs bf the Eskimos of arctic Alaska, Edward A. Mcllhenny, in the Century, says: [ The principal occupation of these Eskimos (of arctic Alaska) duriDg the spring is the hunting of the bow head whale in the leads, or open water, and among the floe ice of the Arctic ocean. The taking of a whale is always a time of great rejoicing with these peonle. for it means not only an abun dance of food and fuel, but a large amount of valuable trading material. After the whaling season is over the boats which have been used in the chase are gathered on the leads between the pack and shore ice, which is often some miles from shore, at the foot of some road that has been cut through the rough ice from the land to the water. The most successful boat's crew, with their umiak (a whaling boat covered with skins), takes the lead, followed by the other boats in the order of their success. The harpoons, floats, paddles and everything pertaining to the chase of the whale are placed in their respective positions. The umiak is then placed on a flat Ivory runnered sled and lashed firmly in place. The owner, who is called omelic (headman), stands on the ice at the right hand side of the bow; tbe boat steerer stands at tbe stern and the paddlers stand at their respective places aloug the sides of the boat When all is ready the omelic gives the word to go forward, and each of the crew slips over his shoulder a broad breast strap of sealskin, which is attached to a short line made fast to the thwarts of the boat. "When all la ready the boat is pulled forward a few lengths and the next boat in order goes through the same form, moving on in Its turn,until all the umiaks are strung out in a long line on the grounded ice ready for their return to land. At a signal from the head boat all move forward, chanting weird songs of the goodness and power of the whale, for one of the superstitions of these people is that Whenever working on any object to be used in whaling or doing anything connected with whaling they must constantly extol the merits of this great animal. Long before the boats reach shore the entire population left in the village?men. women, children and dogscongregate 011 the beach to welcome the home comers. When the first boat nears land it is brought to a halt a few feet from the shore line, and its talisman, which is always carried in a little pouch in the bow and may be a wolf's head, the head of a raven, iron pyrites or any odd thing, is lifted out by the omelic and held in his right hand-toward the shore, where stands the chief medicine man of the tribe, who pours over it a little fresh water to refresh it and thank it for the benefits given, if the boat has sec-urea :i whaJe, or, n me boat has not been lucky, to appease any slight that may have been put upon the talisman, in the hope that it will give them better luck in the future. After reaching shore a day or possibly two may be given for preparation, and then the great feast begins. Each successful boat owner, beginning with the one whose boat secured the most whales, gives a feast, to which he invites all the members of the tribe and any other people who may be in the village. First a wind break of umiaks. sails or skins is built to act as a shelter against the chilly blasts o.f the polar winds. It is placed in the form of a large circle if enough material can be secured, in the center of which a \ Li nl.n.uil nn +h#? milltld. V\ <111 14^? 1IIUC 111 I'iuvvv* VM V?V 0 y and to its four corners are tied long ropes, which are passed over tripods placed about twenty-live feet from the skin. The ends of the ropes are then drawn tight and made fast with stout stakes driven into the ground, thus raising the skin about four feet. The skin thus becomes a platform some eight or ten feet square, which serves as a sort of movable stage on which the young women dance. The feast usually begins at the time when the sun reaches a due western point, about <> o'clock in the afternoon, for during the eighty days of summer at Otkeavic the sun never sets, and, being without timepieces, the Eskimos mark their time by the position of the sun while it is visible and by the moon and stars when the sun has gone for the long arctic night. These feasts sometimes last twenty-four hours. mmmaamwmmamammmmmmmmmBtammBmmamm In A given number greater yield of cott |?
