What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Ro0$r the-jp*eat kidney remedy, ,
( fulfills-everjf wish lncnringrheumatian,
pBTfttn lflC"t)?lCK, K.iuneys, n>a.,
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold "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 cores ci the * mostdk
\ tressihg cases. If you need a medicine
yon should have the best. Sold by druggists
in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.

The Lexington Dispatch.
Wednesday, January 29, 1908.
Report of The G-raad Jury.
His Honor, Judge John S. Wilson, j
presiding:
We the grand jury desire to make |
this our presentment:
We have inspected the county jail
and find it well kept by the Sheriff,
but recommend to the Supervisor and
County Commissioners that they have
constructed, at once, a steel tower
and steel tank, as the one on hand
has become worthless.
We desire to respectfully ask the
City Council of Lexington to remove
the guard house adjoining the jail, if
it be possible. The Sheriff and his
family have made complaint that the
aattia id ohi potion able and a nuisance.
We desire to commend the efforts
of oar county authorities to establish
a bridge across the Saluda river.
We again call attention to the Supervisor,
the need of water-closets in
thecoUrt house.
We ask our members of the Legislature
to increasb the pay of the expert
for the grand jury, it being inadequate
for the importance and amount
of work done.
We have eleoted John Bell Towill,
L. Bennett Frick and J. C. Reynolds
as a committee to investigate the
county offices, chain gang and poor
house, to make its report at our next
session.
We have elected Barrett Jones to
assist us in our investigation.
We respectfully ask our members
of the General Assembly to make an
effort to have the pay for witnesses
raised to one dollar per diem and
milage at six cents.
We have examined and reported on
all bills and matters given us and returned
them with our findings.
We desire to return our thanks to
His Honor and all courfc officers for
their kindness and co'urtesies^shown.
Respectfully submitted, .

An Insidious Danger.
One of the worst features of' kidney
trouble is that it is an insidious disease
and .before the victim realizes his danger
he may have a fatal malady. Take
Foley's Kidney Cure at the first sign of
trouble as it corrects irregularities and
oreveuts Bright's disease and diabetes.

Obituary.
James Hook was born on the 10th
of January, 1823, and died on January
4th, 1908, making him 85 years
old, lacking six days. It was not the
writer's privilege to know Brother
Hook in his active days. He suffered
a stroke of paralysis before "I knew
him. \ Uncle James Hook was a faithful
good man?faithful to the church,
and honest almost to a fault. On the
5fch of January we laid his mortal remains
away at the old home burying
ground to await the morn of the ressurrection.

To Create New Circuit.
. i
A bill was introduced in the lower
Louse last week 'Which purports to
create a new court circuit by placing
Richland and Lexington in a circuit
by themselves.
It is claimed by those who fayor
the bill that it will go a long way toward
relieving the congested court
dockets of the State, especially in
these two counties.
The bill is favored, so it is said, by
the representatives of both counties,
and its passage is almost certain.

Prohibition Fight in Texas.
Dallas, Texas, Jan. 26.?The fight
before the people for state wide prohibition
for Texas began in earnest
on Wednesday. Three mass meetings
were-held. Five speakers addressed
nearly 1,000 persons at Bush Temple
and twice that many were addressed
at the First Methodist and First Baptist
churches. W. D. Upshaw, known
as "Earnest Willie" of Atlanta, Ga.,
was among the speakers at both
places.
The Old, Old ^crld.
This old, old world is a dreary
place
For the man whose pass is a frowning
i face:
Who looks for the shadows instead of
the light;
For the sordid and dull instead of the
bright;
Who sees but the worry and labor and
strife
Instead of the glory and sunshine of
life.
This old, old world is a sad abode
For the man who travels along life's
road
With never a lauali and never a sontt
To lighten the toil as he goes along:
With never a smile or a word of cheer
To shorten the way for his fellows
here.
But for him who possesses the saving
grace
Of laughimg heart and smiling face,
Who sings at his work and laughs at
defeat,
-And looks for the good and the bright
and the sweet; Who
cheers on his fellows by word
and by deed,
This world is a pleasant place indeed.

A Young Married "Woman Victim
of Jealousy.
Christianburg, Ya.?Mrs. Sidney
Jones, aged 19, was shot and killed at
her home in Cambria by Frank Cart-'
hon, aged 20, whose suit she had rejected
to marry Jones.
Her husband who is employed by
the'Norfolk and Western railroad,
was at work, and Carthon found Mrs.
Jones alone in the kitchen. He shot
her three times with a pistol, one bullet
taking effect in the center of her
forehead, one in her breast, and one
in her neck. Any one of the wounds
would have been fatal.
After the shooting Carthon came to
Christianburg and surrendered to the
authorities, telling them that, he had
planned the death of the girl for a
year, and asked that he be protected, j
as he feared her husband and relatives
would kill him.
While Carthon fears lynching there
is not at present any indication of
mob violence.

It Does The Business.
Mr. E. E. Chamberlain, of Clinton,

"It does the business; I have used it for
piles and it cured them. Used it for
chapped hands and it cured them. Applied
it to an old sore and it healed it
without leaving a scar behind." 25c.
