Bladder troubles almost always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper , treatment of the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swam p- Root, the greathidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often through the day, and to get up. many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Boot is soon realized. It stands ^he highest for its wonderful cores of the most distressing cases, b N Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and tine-dollar size bottles.

Girls, never think that you can win admiration from men by being what is termed "sporty." The other word for sporty is "fast," and though men may hang around the fast girl, they have not one particle of real admiration for her. Men admire modesty above all ! j things in a woman. 1 The bold girl will always have a certain following, for men feel that they do not have to treat her as they would treat a modest, refined girl. They can make all sorts of jokes before'her and treat her just as they would a man. They never think of showing her the chivalry th'ey would feel bound to show to a well bred girl. And, as a rule, they are not the class of men that a lady would care to have as friends. If they do happen to be men of the better class they would never dream of introducing the "sporty" girl to their mothers and sisters. As for marrying her, that would never enter their heads. She is all right for a rough kind of fun, but not for a wife. Very often a girl drifts into fast behavior because she thinks it is smart to behave in that way. She thinks it adds to her attractiveness, and makes her appear as a woman of the world. She has an idea that men like a girl to be up-to-date and jolly. So they do, but being fast is not what makes a girl jolly. The minute you allow a man to make a vulgar joke or tell vulgar stories in your presence you lose a certain amount of modesty. Sometimes a girl laughs at a story that she does not approve of; she laughs through embarrassment, and because she does not want to appear prudish. It is infinitely better to appear a prude than to countenance a story that is not nice. If you show that you do not like it the offense will not be repeated, and the man cannot help but respect you. Do not be tempted to do things which your good taste and common sense tell you are wrong just through fear of being called a spoiled sport. Loud laughter and unladylike behavior can hurt a girl's reputation seriously. And even should you behave properly yourself you win be judged by the company you frequent, and if your friends are questionable you will also be considered so. Your good name is your most invaluable possession; you cannot afford to do the smallest thing to damage it. Make men respect you; do not let them take the least liberty of any kind. They take you at your standard. Self respect brings respect from others. Don't try to be "sporty." There is nothing attentive or charming in that quality, and you will be much more loveable, if you are content to be just a modest, well behaved girl. , Beatrice Fairfax. 8tate or Ohio.

Take Hall's Family Pills for constipation i Agricultural Display at Great State ?air. ' Prof. J. N. Harper of the department of agriculture of Clemson college, arrived in the city yesterday to arrange the agricultural display at the fair grounds. It was deoided some time ago tov place this department under the charge of Clemson college officials and Prof. Harper will at once arrange all of the exhibits with a view to displaying th to their best advantage. The college itself will send down a very large exhibit this year and the letters received by Secretary Love indicate that the building and surround ing grounds will be filled with handsome produce and that the judges in this department will have no easy position. President Guiemard and Secretary Love have placed everything in readiness for the prompt delivery of this display and it only remains for exhibtors to remember that for the past six months there has been a congestion in freight surpassing all previous records. Therfore it will be necessary to bill all exhibits early and to notify the secretary of the date of shipment. State 11th. ' Sick Headache Cured.

In some of the courts of North Caro lina atid Georgia, it is said that hours are often taken to try a little criminal case, or a civil suit involving about $37. Lawyers will rear around and make the 'people believe that the witnesses are on trial. They will put up half a dozen witnesses to establish the same fact. They will also raise many points and argue them with great learning. The judges will, with a great show of legal lore, decide these points. After $200 worth of able arguments and a $75 charge of the judge i i. ^}y v and six hours deliberation by the jury a verdict of $27.50 is reached. That is the way they do in other States. Of course m South Carolina we never conduct cases in that manner. We commend the following to all who are disposed to waste the time of the courts: "The briefest summing up ever made before a inrv oeenrred in the county court, Brooklyn, when Lawyer Edward Moran, 1 known as the silver-tongued barrister, said: "My client is not guilt}', your honor." Not to be out-done in brevity, Assistant District Attorney McCaffery declared: ' 'He is guilty, your honor." ' 'Gentlemen of thejury," said Judge Aspinall, ''decide between these two learned counsel." The jury, after deliberating a few moments, returned a verdict of guilty. * Warmer Weather. Washington, Oct. 11.?A cold wave swept over the South and East today and broke all records for this season in many sections, but tonight the weather bureau announced that while the temperatore would rise "only slightly tomorrow," there will be warmer weather Saturday and by Sunday seasonal temperature will again prevail East and South.

ITono Others Axe Wanted. It is strange and unreasonable that so many subscribers often reason that their small dollar will make little difference, whether they pay up promptly or not, forgetting that where there are so many that the sum total is a big thing. There is nothing more satisfactory to the publisher than to have a clean list of prompt paying subscribers. None others are wanted. The Cold sad Frost. President Harvie Jordon of the Southern Cotton association estimates that between 40,000 and 50,000 bales of cotton were killed in the State of Georgia alone, by the cold and frost of last week. The damage not only to cotton, but corn and other vegetation was immense in all sections of the country. It was probably the heaviest frost with ice to visit the different sections of the country generally, so early in a decade or more.

The question as to the term of office of Sheriff W. C. Ouzts has been raised, and inquiry has been made of the attorney general as to the exact construction of the words 4'unexpired term," stated in the commission issued. Mr. Ouzts was appointed to succeed his father, who was elected for four years in 1904, and the attorney general will probably rule that the term rfloes not expire until 1908. The date of the commission issued does not legally constitute the term of office, but it has been decided in a number of cases that an appointment made to fill an unexpired term was for the full term of office.

Areinceba and other returning exrebel chiefs at the terminous of the Western railroad this evening and escorted them across the city to Liberal headquarters, and addresses were made expressing satisfaction at the result of the revolution and lauding American intervention. So Zt Goes. Two negroes were lynched at Mobile recently for assaulting three white girls. One was lynched at Basin, Miss. Two young men in chjwge of two girls at the fairgrounds of Macon were separated by a negro forcing his way between them and pushing them apart. When they remonstrated with him he shot both of them, seriously wounding one. There is a race trouble at Argenta, near Little Rock. Two negroes shot and wounded a policeman and killed his father. When caught it will be short metre with them. Henry E. Jones, of Tampa, Fla., writes: "I can thank God for my present health, due to Foley's Kidney Cure. I tried doctors and all kinds of kidney cures, but nothing done me much good till I took Foley's Kidney Cure. Four bottles cured me, and I have no more pain in my back and shoulders. I am 62 years old, and suffered long, but thanks to Foley's Kidney Cure I am well and can walk and enjoy myself. It is a pleasure to recommend it to those needing a kidney medicine."
