A Dutch Letter.
Bishopville, S. C., Jail. 20th, 1907.?
I discovered recently a sermon, the
words I enclose, which you might
publish for the entertainment of those
of your readers who descended from
fe Dutch ancestry. The occasion was, I
think, the going out of a company to
join Gen. Sumter during American
revolution from Dutch Fork.
Yours truly,
W. A. Jan^es.

V Ven virst you corned from Shermany,
you vas boor und durty as you
had a right to be as your fadders vas
befo you, you vas porn so. It vas no
disgrace to be so in Sharmany, for
- - ? . , i J i -n
<ier iandiorts naa ae rigat do an
dat yon could earn. But in dis country
you are as Iandiorts, and yen de
g: English king gave you land, he bromisea
dat no nopody should dake away
your money put your own selves.
Now he vants to cheat you and dake
p avay your broperty like your landlorts
t lone aforetime in Sharmony,
and he has sent over his redgoat soldiers
to shoot you, and to dake away
your houses and parns and your wives
and sweethearts.
v If you submit to it they will kick
you and despise you, and so vill der
oarefcty gals; they will laff at you and
say goot, yon deserve it all, pecause J
you would'not faight for your own;
put a man is a man if he is no pigger
as my tomb.
You haf on your uniform goats and
some of dem fits like a shirt fits a pole,
put never mind dem, or dere pig guns;
your guns can kill as veil as diers,
?p- and better, as you faight for yourselves,
and day for dier Iandiorts dat
day do hot care about.
.Yen Tavid vent out to faight mit
Goliah, he dook only a sling and a
stone; put it vas not a mint sling or
a gin sling, or you all would want a
due one also. It vas a sling, like to
goot hickory stick, vat can kill a
man, if like Tavid you faight bravely.
So if you faight bravely, der Lort,
; . be vQTstrenken your arms, as he did
Tavid's, and you vill dake good aim

There is more Catarrh in this section j
of the country than all other diseases
pat together, and nnfcil the last few
years was supposed to be incurable. For
jp&f, a great many years doctors pronounced
it a local disease and prescribed local
0Q remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F.-J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O., is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonf ul. It acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure.. Send
for circulars and testimonials.

Shot By Editor.
Pendleton, Oregon. ? John P.
McManns, editor of the Pilot Bock
Becord, shot and killed Robt Estes,
gambler, in the Pullman saloon on
Main street yesterday afternoon. No
motive is known to exist for the shooting
as the men were not acquainted.
It is presumed McManns took Estes
for another man whom the edffco*? believed
had robbed him last week.
The editor of the Memphis, Tenn.,

Honey and Tar is the best remedy for
coughs, colds and lung trouble, and to j
my own personal knowledge Foley's
Honey and Tar has accomplished many
permanent cures that have been little j
short of marvellous." Refuse any but '

Richland Needs Conrt.
Solicitor Timmerman has written
the following letter to the senators
and representatives in his circuit:
" Some time previous to the convening
of the general assembly I directed
a letter to the members of the
legislative delegations in each of the
counties of the fifth judicial circuit,
calling attention to the fact that there
was a necessity for some changes in
the arrangement of our courts with
a view to giving more tame for the
trial of the criminal cases in Richland
county, the criminal docket in
said county being very much congested.
"Later, after the convening of the
general assembly, at the request of
one of the members of the Lexington
delegation, I prepared a bill which in
my judgment would have, if passed,
afforded the necessary relief. I am
informed that on account of certain
l^cal objections in certain of the
counties affected, the bill will not
pass. y

time sustaining the action of the
lower court. He will* now serve his

Neighbors Got Fooled.
"I was literally coughing myself to
death, and had become too weak to
leave my bed; and neighbors predicted
that I would never leave it alive; but
they got fooled, for thanks be to God, I
was induced to try Dr. King's New
Discovery. It. took just four one dollar
bottles to completely cure the cough and
restore me to good sound health,"

THREE EPOC
AW
MRS. ELVA BARBER EDWARDS
There are. three critical stages in a
woman's life which leave their mark
in her career. The first of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from a
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through ill health dates
from one or another of these important
crises.
Women should remember that Lydia
E. Pinkh&m's Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs has
carried thousands of young girls over
thfc critical period of puberty, has
prepared mothers for childbirth, and
in later years' carried them safely ,
through the change of life more sue- |
cessfully than any other remedy in
the world. Thousands of testimonials
from grateful persons, two of which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.
Mrs. George Walters of Woodlawn,
111. writes f
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:?
"I feel it ray duty to tell you of the good
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
hah done me in preparing for childbirth.
After suffering mid losing my children a
friend advised me to try your valuabie medicine,
and the result wa!s that I had very
little inconvenience, a quick recovery and
TYm m'ncf its lnrip- record of mor
actual cures, entitles Lydia E. Pii
the respect and confidence of ever

Geo. Hasty to Sero Balance of
Life in Fenitentiary.
Geo. Hasty, white, aged 21 years,
will serve the balance of his life in
the State penitentiary unless "his attorneys
can get a rehearing of his
case. Hasty, -it will" be remembered,
shot-and killed Milan Bennett and
Abbott Davidson, members of a theatrical
troupe, in his hotel in Gaffney
on Dec. 15,1905. The case was of
unusual interest inasmuch as Ha&ty
killed the two men because they resented
an insult offered one of the
young ladies of their company by
Hasty, while they were guests at his
hotel. The trial came off last March
and was dramatic in many respects.
When the jury brought in its verdict
of "guilty" there was general applause
throughout the court room.

Skin Disease of Twenty Years'
Standing Cured.
^ /
I want yon to know how muck Chamberlain's
Salve has done for me. It has
cured my face of a skin disease of almost
twenty years' standing. I have been
treated by several as smart physicians
as we have in this country and they did
me no good, but two boxes of this salve
has cured me.?Mrs. Fannie Griffen,

Leonard, the 5-year-old son. of J.
Frank Chapman, was killed on Tuesday
while playing with two other
children on a pile of lumber in his
father's yard in Laurens. A piece of
lumber rolled down on him and broke
his neck.
Grover Cleveland has just been appointed
to a $25,000 job by some big

Suit has been instituted in Spartanburg
against the Southern for killing

The damages are fixed at $50,000.
