What To Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hoM water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and | the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine yon should have the best.

Lesington County Teachers Meeting. The first meeting of the pre^nt school year was hela Saturday, December 1, 1906. Supt. J. E. R. Kyzer occupied the chair. * v The following officers were elected: President?J. F. Kyzer. 1st. Vice-President?S. S. Lindler. 2nd. Vice-President?Miss Sue Corley. Executive Committee?Prof. F. W. Rauch, chairman; Miss Ellen Hen drix, Secretary of Committee; Miss Lizzie Seay, Miss Eppie Roof and R. E. Sheaty; Miss Mary C. "VVingard, Secretary and Treasurer. The meeting proved very pleasant and each one seemed glad he or she had been present. Later a program for the January meeting will appear in the Dispatch and we hope to have a better meeting next time than the December meeting. A paper was read by Miss Ellen Hendrix on the subject of "Silent Influence of the Teachers for good," a synopsis of which is given below: This subject is as broad in application as practical illustrations in nature are numerous. The heat from the sun raises tons of water into the air, to be returned as dew or rain, enlivening all nature. This is stupendous work acne silently. The little grains, seeds and acorns, lie in the soil and are nourished by the silent agencies of heat and moisture. They as silently sprout and peep forth, there is no sound to herald their approach. It is only when seen that we are aware of their life. The plants develop so quietly and slowly that we cannot perceive their growth, even if we watched them for an hour, yet if we compare their growth week after week, we can see the growth of nature's silent forces. The greatest of all teachers?our loving Jesus Christ?laid great stress ? J- * > xl upon tne silent iorees ror goca, m uie lesson he drew from the^-parable of the leaven, a little, of which ieaveneth the whole lump. He therebytaught that it is the silent power in human nature which aids and develops. The potent influence of a sympathetic glnace, the nod of approval and the watchful eye are silent, yet powerful factors, in controlling and fostering good habits. If you wish to know what influence the reading of a book has, stop and examine the state of mind in which you lay the book down. Has it ldad you to be-sruspicious? Has it taught you to be discontented? Has it caused ycu to relax self government without which you violate the laws of God and man? Does it stimulate vanity, selflshness, irreverence or any other base characteristic? Dees it deaden your sense of right, which God has given you as an automatic governor? If any of these be the influence on the adult mind from reading a book, how much greater the influence of the teacher's daily walk and conversation upon the life oi the ter.ucr h> tle plants entrusted to their care. St. Paul exhorts self examination. The teacher needs to frequently ma!: self examinations. It lies in the silent power of the teacher to lead the pupils in their charge to live in accord with the perfect command?to love thy neighbor as thyself. Sot's This?

Coggins, of near Spartanburg, was accidentally killed by her twin brother, Wm. H. Coggins, and Herman Smith, a nineyear-old negro boy, was also seriously injured. They were playing with an *'unloaded gun." Many a man who calls himself conservative is but a coward. Flattery when practiced as a fine art is called tact.

At this writing I am as well as com- ' mon, though not well. My family is well and the health of the community is good. ' Mr. Editor, there was a very good J crop made in this portion of Ariran- | sas this year. If there was less public work in this country we would be in better shape. The farmers can't control labor. Every man or boy that can pull a saw or drive a team ( that is needed on the farm, has gone to the public works, where, they s claim, they have a pay day, but there J is not. one out of ten that is saving anything. TVe can hear from 12 to 15 steam whistles toot day and night, I and the timber will soon be all gone < from these parts. Then, maybe, the j farms will be looked after again. This is a good farming country if the people would only stick to it. I 3 was expecting some of the young i men fro-m old South Carolina to visit this country t.hi3 fall, but as yet, none n?vp shown iti T pro satisfied there are some people back there that could do betoer here. They can get homes here; there it seems they cannot. Well, Mr. Editor, I better stop for fear you wiiHook up that eld soap box. G. W. Smith. Ain, Ark., Dee. 2. Danger in Asking Advice.
