THE LEXIN6T0M DISPATCH. Wednesday, April 4,1906. Our Delegation in Congress. "Washington Cor. to State. The State Bureau, 1417 G Street, N. W, Washington, March 29. Representative Lever has been invited to deliver the annual address before the Erosopbio Literary society of the Cokesbury Conference echod on June 4:h. He felt forced to de* nliriA invitation because of the date, which comes about the time coDgress is expected to be closing up its affairs for adjournment. He is particularly interested in a number of measures, certain appropriations and the like, which will be at the crucial point just prior to adjournment Senator Tillman continues to get invitations to college commencements and to other functions. He has received a number of invitations to make addresses on Jefferson day, April $ad. The "William L. Douglas clnb'' of Springfield, Mass., a large Democratic club in Chicago and the Democratic league of Delaware, at Wilmington, are among those which want him to make speeches at their annual dinners. All of these the senator has declined, not having the time. Representative Patterson has had some more conferences with officials at the navy department with respect to the Port Royal navy yard and the disposition of the buildings. Assistant Secretary Newberry did not stop over at Port Royal on his recent trip Sooth as he had expected. He tells Mr. Patterson of his regrets that it was not practicable. Secretary Bonaparte, however, who seems to be in favor of patting the naval training station at Port Royal, has promised to read the reports already made by a naval committee which recommended the training station, and it is expected that be will take the matter op at his first opportunity. Representative Lever had a conference today at the post office department concerning the BlufFton R F. D. route. It is necessary for three-fourths of the families on that road to signify their intention to put 5- ? ?1 1. ? in ooxea ueiurw we wuw uau uc widered, according to the rule.

"We lived in the country, and every Sabbath morning tbe family coach was pulled out, a team bitched to it, and the family was piled in. The roads were awful, but that made no difference, we had to go. "I well remember that mother put on ber Sunday dress. Ic was a biack I silk and somewhere in it there was a I pocket, and in the pocket a bandker- I chief, and in the handkerchief some 1 cloves. When we got to the church I I remember we went up in front | where my father bad a pew. | "When the preacher got to going I | also remember that some of us chil- | dren wocld begin to get sleepy. And then I know that mother would take out that handkercoief and give out a clove to each one of us youngsters to keep us awake. I was thinking about it just the other day. And I just j wondered if a child or a man, in these j modern times, would take a clove out ! of bis handkerchief, or pocket, in church, and put in his mouth, what in the world his neighbors would | think of b nj J * Caught Cold While Hunting a j Burglar. i Mr. Wm. T. Lanorgau, provincial < constable at Ghapleau, Ontario, says; "I caught a severe cold while hunting a i burglar in the forest swamp last fall. Hearing of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, I tried it, and after using two snmll , bottles, I was completely cured.'' This remedy is intended especially for coughs ' and colds. It will loosen and relieve a 1 severe cold in less time than by any 1 other treatment and is a favorite wher- 1 ever its superior excellence has become j known. For.sale by the Kaufmann j Drug Co.

I lead a very busy life, but I do not know that ffhat I do up here would furnish reading matter for the folks "at lome." There is much to be done ind few to do it.

Last Satur3ay morniDg it began in good Virgina fashion, and lasted all day. Much )f it was rouud snow, and all told intil night, was about 8 inches deep. [ faced the music bravely, however, Sunday morning. A fine mist was tolling. Had about 100 at church 0 morning.

As a rule the willing horse is urged, so I have been sailed on to do a lot of such extra work. The people have been kind ind responsive. We had one sad case to face recently, though. A young man from me of our best families had some love troubles it seems and went out just two weeks ago and took his own life. It cast a gloom over the community. He had been an inveterate cigarette smoker, and I believe this blunted his sensibilities to the enormity of the act. Our health is and has been good. [ weigh 182 pounds, about as much is I ever did.

"I took treatment with several physicians without any benefit. I then starred to take Foley's Honey &nd Tar, md my lungs are now as sound as a bullet. I recommend it in advanced stages of lung trouble." Foley's Honey find Tar stops the cough and heals the lungs, and prevents serious results from i cold. Refuse substitutes. The Kaufmann Drug Co. Bridget, the pretty young maid-of- J all-work, confided to her mistres when taking service that Bhe bad j lately become engaged to be married, j She stated, however, that she and j Tim would bave to wait two years, and in the meantime she wished to be earning money. When Tim made his first call one evening the family remarked that they had never known eo quiet a man. The sound of Bridget's voice rose now and then from the kitchen, but Tim's words were apparently few and far between. "Tim is not much of a talker, is he, Bridget?" siid the mistress of the house the next morning. "I should scarcely have known there was anyone with you last night." ' He'll tilk more when we've been engaged a while longer, I'mthinkiDg, ma'am," said little Bridget. "He's too bashful yet to do anything but est, ma'am, when he's widmd"?TitBits.

After completing work on this section, which will take about two weeks, the gang will then follow down the river road to Brookland and thence on the State road. There is nobbing worth more to the county than good roads, and we trust the work will be looked after on every road now before the busy APftBon Hfirts in for farm work.

The richest man in the world can not have his kidneys replaced nor live without them, so it is important not to neglect these organs.
