Observe its rapid increase as time progresses. Population has grown and the volume of business in every line has correspondingly increased. New cotton mills are going up and older ones are spreading out as a rule, and the world's supply of cotton is v short, so we may comfort ourselves that we can have a fairly good price for what we make, if it is an average j.crop, but if the crop is short we my | look for an extra good price for all we make. The rain since the first of May has made it almost impossible for the farmers to keep the grass down. Some fields have been abandoned, so we are informed and unless conditions change the crop will be materially cut in this section. I am in my farm when it is not !

Patroaise Oar Advertisers. The Dispatch congratulates itself that. it, a larp-fi number of warm friends who never lose an opportunity to speak a word in our behalf. We are grateful for these evidences of good will, and feel confident they will embrace the opportunity we suggest here to further our interests, namely? patronize our advertisers ! We have several good business friends who loyally stand by us at all times. Naturally we desire that these friends shall get adequate returns for their business favors to us; and since they are the most progressive and reliable merchants, we feel sure our friends will co-operate with us to that end. Friends, stick to the firms who ask | for your trade through The Dispatch I as frequently as they do by any other method. They are the back-bone of the business. The dollar you pay for the paper is most greatfully received but its advertising patronage is what makes it possible to publish any newspaper. If you want to help us, patronize our advertisers. To patronize them also means that you will get better values for your money. Suppose you try it and see if we are not right. Tell them you saw their advertisements in the Dispatch. Slumber Peacefully over the lumber question. We liave solved it. The best value for every one's money is in our vard. There is every variety of LUMBER used here in the trade and the price at which we sell will gladden tho heart of the man who is figuring on a contract, We are headquarters for Doors, Sash and Blinds and especially ask the people of Lexington to call on us for their doors and Sash.

I Investigation and Exposure the Order of the Day. t The sole object of the times seems to be to make fees for prosecution and defense while violation of law and order goes unpunished. So long as offenders can pay costs in courts the legal mills grind. Money, money, seems to be the fad, while principle and honor are small it-ems in the eyes of the world. All clocks have to be wound up to keep running, and it is hoped the present status of affairs will get to the bottom and have to be wound up after while. The plebes of one generation are the patricians of the next. So it is with humanity; one crowd wears out and destroys while the other restores and builds up. We may expect a change for the better, as there are wonderful improvements taking place in cities, public highways, agricultural industries, etc. The courts and lawyers hold the power in their hands to bring about these badly needed improvements, which will produce more penalties and less prosecution. Saved His Comrade's Life, j I "While returning from the Grand j Army Encampment at Washington City, i a comrade from Elgin, 111., was taken \ with cholera morbus and was in a criti- j cal condition," says Mr. J.

I have been engaged for ten years in immigration work and conducted many parties to the south ml west. I always carry this remedy and have used it successfully on many occasions."

Timmonsville has no short dispenser or dispensary, but it is short a dispenser. And all this is on account of a revival meeting conducted there recently by Evangelist Leach. Mr. Leach knows all about the evils of the drink devil by actual contact as well as through inspiration, and his efforts on this subject are usually such as ought to appear in black type even in a great family newspaper. He has converted various persons at Timmonsville, including the dispenser, Mr. W. H. White, who has forthwith resigned. At least that i9 the information that has reached the State board about the matter, and an inspector is to go there in a few days and transfer the stock to Mr. White's successor, because Mr. White since his resignation has not wanted to touch the thing at all.

The adjutant general's office received a letter from the war department saying that the $18,000, which General Frost asked about, would be ayailable for the purposes of the Chickamauga encampment. This will afford enough money for the three regiments to go to the interstate encampment, so it is likely that all three will go after all. The regiments will go out separately, the first to leave the last week in July. General Frost himself is in Charleston today. Only 82 Years Old. "1 am only 82 years old and don't expect even when I get to be real eld to feel that way as long as I can get Electric Bitters," says Mrs. E. H. Branson, of Dublin, Ga.

Pinkham'8 Vegetable Compound Just In Time. Mrs. T. C. Willadsen, of Manning, Iowa, writes to Mrs. Pinkham: Dear Mrs. Pinkham " I can truly say that you have saved my life, and I cannot express my gratitude to you in words. &AriTcm-.SaJ) u Before I wrote to you, telling you how I felt, I had doctored for over two years steady and spent lots of money on medicines besides, but it all failed to help me. My monthly periods had ceased and I suffered much pain, with fainting spells, headache, backache and bearing-down pains, and I was so weak I could hardly keep around. As a last resort I decided to write you and try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I am so thankful that I did, for after following your instructions, which you sent me free of all charge, I became regular and in perfect health. Had it not been for you I would be in my grave to-day. " I sincerely trust that this letter may lead every suffering woman in the country to write you for help as I did." When women are troubled with irregular or painful periods, weakness, displacement or ulceration of an organ, that bearing-down feeling, inflammation, backache, flatulence, general debility, indigestion or nervous prostration, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. No other female medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. Eefuse all substitutes. For 25 years Mrs. Pinkham, daughterin-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, has under her direction, and since her decease. 1 ?TtmmoTv r%4 Utseii tLUVlOIlJg Divn V* charge. Address, Lynn, Mass.
