It was at a late hour that the young 1 people took their departure, and all went away voting Miss Rast a most charming hostess.

[Received too late for last issue.? Ed. Dispatch.] The Very Best Remedy for Bowel Trouble. Mr. M. F. Borroughs, an old and well known resident of Bluffton, Ind., says: "I regard Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as the very best remedy for bowel trouble. I make this statement after having used the remedy in my family for several years, jl am never without it." This remedy is almost sure to be needed before the summer is over. Why not buy it now and be prepared for such an emergency? For sale by Kaufmann Drug Co. Happy and. Restful Vacation. It is certain you deserve it and have earned it. Your work has been hard. It has often been carried on under great discouragements. Often you have received but scant sympathy from the patron. All too often you have failed to receive a kind word and expression of good will and of a desire to co-operate with you. But you have done well. That should cheer your hearts and bring you the right to enjoy a period of rest. No doubt you have often been misunderstood and, in consequence, harshly judged. We all oto "Wrt rlnnht von often feel dis hartend. We all do. But you kept on with your work and you have done well?how well you may never know till you stand before the great throne of the Highest, and see some of the good fruitage of the good seeds you have sown. May you have a good time as you go back to the old home and the dear old folks. Think of us with pity during the plum time, the peach time and the watermelon time. Blessing upon each one of you! May peace and happiness fill your hearts.? Union Times. Cured of Blight's Disease. Geo. A. Sherman, Lisbon Red Mills, Lawrence Co., X. Y., writes: "I had kidney disease for many years and had been treated by physicians for twelve years; had taken a well known kidney j medicine and other remedies that were j recommended but got 110 relief until I began using Foley's Kidney Cure. The first half bottle relieved me and four bottles have cured me of this terribl^ disease. Before I began taking Foley's Kidney Cure I had to make water about fiftYuvn mirmfos. dav and nierht. and passed a brick-dust substance, and sometimes a slimy substance. I believe I would have died if I had not taken Foley's Kidney Cure." The Kaufmann Drug Co. Greens and Gaynor Again. Macon, May 31.?The United States circuit court of appeals today granted a supersedeas in the case of Messrs. Gaynor and Greene, convicted in Savannah of conspiracy to defraud the government in connection with harbor improvement work. This has the effect in staying the execution of the sentence imposed on them. Veteran Killed oy Sting of Bee. Spartanburg, June 1.?Mr. John H. Zimmerman, aged 60 years, died at his home this morning at 5 o'clock from the effects of a bee sting. Mr. Zimmerman lived at Cedar Springs, and while at work yesterday afternoon was stung on the lobe of the right ear. After walking for several steps he fell to the ground in an unconscious condition. When the bee stnnf Mr. Zimmerman he called out I ^TT ITIIII ? I I TT? ?.?W~I ? to his wife and she ran to his aid. Before she could reach him he- had fallen and outside of a few incoherent remarks made during the night, Mr. , Zimmerman never spoke again. When medical aid reached him he was black J in the face and was apparently sufferI ing from strangulation. Mr. Zimmer! man was carried ir.to his home and was attended by physicians all during the night. Every remedy known was administered to the sick man, but | death resulted at an early hour this morning. The attending physician stated that the stinger of the bee had penetrated to a blood vessel and that the poison from the bee had been so powerful that it caused death. Unknown Friends. There are many people who have used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with splendid results, but who are unknown because they have hesitated about giving a testimonial of their experience for publication. These people, however, are none the less friends of this remedy. They have done much toward making it a household word by 1 1 ? ^ ^ 1 +-/~v ineir persuuui xt"cuxxxxxxt-xxiuxnvxx;-> iv/ friends and neighbors It is a good medicine to have in the home and is widely known for its cures of diarrhoea and all forms of bowel trouble.

Kankakee, May 31.?After a four hour search for her three youngest children, Ida, aged 8, Roselle, 6, and Pearl, two years, Mrs. Adelard Van Slette found them last night dead in a trunk in an upper chamber. The children had been playing out of doors much of the day, listening to music and watching a martial display. Late in the afternoon they went into the house to continue romping. Supper time and Mrs. Van Slette's calls through the house and yard failed to bring any response. At last the mother observed an old fashioned trunk, from which the tray I "L - J 1 ,1 4-lr, ^ null OCSIl tilKtlll UIIU WclS IVlUg UH tuc bed. Mrs. Van Slette lifted the lid and saw her two babies lying on a pillow in the bottom of the trunk. Ida was sitting upright, her head droopl ing on her breast. The children were j so still that Mrs. Van Slette stood in sympathetic stillness for an instant. Then she put forth her hands and touched Ida, and spoke. Contact I with the girl's head and lack of response froze the woman with horror. The children were dead. ?- v * Two Persons Cremated. Seneca, June 1.?Joe Hudson, a respectable white man, and wife were burned to death last night about 3 o'clock at West Union, eight miles from here. It seems that the house was completely enveloped in the flames before the fire was discovered and the charred bodies of the unfortunate couple were found just as they lay in bed. They had been married about six months and the man was a hard worker. No one is suspected of burning tt?oo lrv> num tVi a f i tilt; JlUUSt', UUU 11 v? as Jiiiuii" uiuv ; Hudson usually carried money with him, a short time ago having been seen with $350 in his pockets. Some | think the couple were murdered and | the house then burned. m How to Break Up a Cold. It may l>e a surprise to many to learn that a severe cold can be completely broken up in one or two days' time. The first symptoms of a cold are a diy, loud cough, a profuse watery discharge from the nose, and a thin, white coating 011 the tongue. "When Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is taken every hour 011 the first appearance of these symptoms, it counteracts the effect of the cold and restores the system to a healthy condition within a day or two. For sale by Kaufmann Drug Co. Leaves from Black Creek. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Since we have had line showers crops have started off wonderfully, but cotton was so badly injured from the cold leaving bad stands that there need be no uneasiness of being an over production in this section. Our gardens are backward, no beans and potatoes as yet. Rev. M. J. Kyzer is with us again and wears that same broad smile. He preached for us at Oak Grove, Sunday before last, a very inieresting sermon ! from text: "Watch for you know not I the hour when the Lord cometh." On last Tuesdav the third infant of * Mr. and Mrs. Austin Jefcoat was laid away in Oak Grove cemetery to wait the summons "to come unto me." The funeral of all three was preached by Rev. Evans Hall, assisted by Rev. Keel of your town. We were glad to have brother Keel with us. After all the great efforts to have the trolley f?o on the ridge we are looking for it through this country now in the near future. So you see the still sow drinks the slop. Col. D. J.
