During the summer months children are subject to disorders of the bowels which should receive careful attention as scon as tbo first unnatural looseness of the bowels appears. The best medicine in use for bowel complaint is Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as it promptly controls any unnatural looseness of the bowels. For sale by Kaufmann Drug Co. An Ideal Farmer. Batesburg Advocate, July 20. On last Monday Mr. M. E. Rutland pulled a cotton blossom from a ten acre field of stubble cotton that had just been planted three weeks to the day. This cotton is of the celebrated King variety?the earliest variety yet known to man. This is no joke; we saw it pulled witn our own eyes (ana it did not come from a volunteer stalk, either), but from a stalk that had been planted only three weeks, and from a field that had been gathered already this year, 60 bushels of oats per acre. Besides the ten acres of cotton mentioned above, Mr. Rutland has fifty acres, that is, despite the heavy rains that have fallen for the past six weeks, lapping the middles and will 110 doubt make over a bale to the acre. On this farm there is ten acres of the finest corn that has ever been seen in this section, and it is estimated that it will make at least 100 bushels to the acre. JYII". XVUliicillU.

"While returning from the Grand Army Encampment at Washington City, a comrade from Elgin, 111., was taken with cholera morbus and was in a critical condition," says Mr. J. E. Hou^hland, of Eldon, Iowa. "I gave hirii Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and believe saved his life. I have been engaged for ten years in immigration work and conducted many parties to the south and west. I always carry this remedy and have used it successfullv on manv occasions." Sold by Kaufmann Drug Co. Shooting Live Pigeons. The Fourth of July there was a live pigeon shoot at Glendale, under the management of a Spartanburg gun club. According to the report of the scores about S00 pigeons were used, j Nearly all these were killed or crip j pled. Boys with guns stooa on ine i outside of the line and killed nearly [ e\vry one that escaped the members ' of the elub. Several counties were (represented among the contestants. They were, good and worthy men and should not have/ indulged in such cruel sport. The killing of birds or animals that are harmless unless for food is wrong. President Roosevelt set the country a had example when he went out West and shot boh cats, Mexican lions and Colorado bears, that were doing no harm in their i wilderness homes. Such cruel sport hardens one and blunts and even destroys all the tender sympathies of the human heart. No good comes | from shooting pigeons. The practice is worth nothing to the gunner. One | day in the field at the proper season | behind a good dog is better training than a week's shooting at pigeons. j If there is a law to prevent this cruel sport it should be enforced. If there is none the General Assembly should * j enact one at the next session.?Carolina Spartan, IB. Will Interest Many.

Foley's Kidney Cure will cure kidney and bladder disease in every form, and will build up and strengthen these organs so they will perform their functions properly. No danger of Bright's disease or diabetes if Foley's Kidney Cure is taken in time. The Kaufmann Drug Co. COMMISSION "WANTS Gen. Stoessel Shot?Other Officers Punished. St. Petersburg, July 19.?The com- | mission appointed to investigate the j surrender of Port Arthur has finished its labors and recommends that Lieu- j tenant General Stoessel, the former j commander of the Russian forces at Port Arthur, be dismissed from the J army and shot, that Lieutenant General Fock, who commanded the fourth east Siberian division at Port Arthur, be dismissed from the army and undergo a year's hard labor; that General Reiss, chief of staff of General Stoessel, be dismissed and banished and that Admiral Alexieff, former viceroy in the Far East, Lieutenant j General Smirnoff, commander of the Port Arthur fortress, and General Vernander be reprimanded. The formal trial of these officers will take place shortly. * Court Has Sustained Board of Education. 'Associate Justice Woods has render ( ed a decision Jn the injunction proceedings brought by W. H. Duncan, a taxpayer of Barnwell, against the State Board of Education, in which an effort was made to prevent the board from creating a central depository for school books. The court decided that the act was j broad enough to allow this action and sustained the board throughout. The central depository has been awarded the R. L. Bryan Company and it is presumed since this decision has been made by the court that there will be no further proceedings. Makes the Liver Lively.

Lever, whose card appears in this issue of the Evening News, announces himself as a candidate for re-election to the 60th Congress. It is a high compliment to him that he makes this race unopposed. There can be no doubt but that there are numbers of capable and popular men in the district who wrmlrl likft to succeed him in Con gress, but his work in that body has been so successful and consistent as to inspire in the public mind great confidence in his devotion to the interests of the people. This fact has deterred others from entering the race, and is a high testimonial to his fidelity to the trust the people have reposed in him. Mr. Lever is a man who does things. There is every probability that Sumter will soon have a forty thousand dollar public building and Orangeburg as soon as Free Delivery has been established will not j be forgotten. Indeed we are assured ! that our city is next on the list. The voters of this district owe it, therefore not only to themselves, but to Mr. Lever, that they give him a full vote in the coming primary. Don't neglect to vote for Lever, because there is 110 opposition, and his nomination is assured, but vote for him that he may know that he has ti e endorsement of the people in all that lie is trying to do for them.?Orangeburg Evening News. | Hard Lot I of troubles to contend with, spring from j a torpid liver and blockaded bowels, j : unless you awaken them ?<? their proper ! aerion with Dr. Kind's New Life Pills; | the pleasantest and most effective cure j for Constipation.
