The Lexington Dispatch ^ : = A Wednesday, March 23,1910. ^ G. M. Harm an, Editor and Publisher j D. R. Haltiwanger, Assistant Editor ^ = 1 Entered at the Post Office at Lexington, r_ S. C., as second class matter. } 1 t CIRCULATION 2.325. J G G The Dispatch feels a little delicacy in calling the attention of our City ^ Fathers to the streets and sidewalks of Lexington. We realize that the j funds for this purpose is pitiably small ^ judt at this particular time; but something must be done to improve the i looks of the town. An ordinance G -should be passed?if it has not already ^ been done?requiring the residents of ? the town to keep up the streets in ? front of their homes. In some instances this step is not necessary, for E most every person who feels a pride \ in the surroundings of hi9 place, will ^ do this of his own accord. Take our V sidewalks, from one end of Main j street to the other, and what do you i find? In some places they are almost E washed away, and in others various e kinds of obstructions are found. We ?

It penetrates ?without rubbing ? through the skin and muscular tissue right to the bone, quickens the blood, relieves congestion, and gives permanent as well as temporary relief. Here's the Proof. Mr. James C. Lee, of 1100 9th St., S.E.,Washington, D.C., -writes : "Thirty years ago I fell from a scaffold and seriously injured my back. I suffered terribly at times; from the small of my hack all around my stomach was just as if I bad been beaten with a club. I used every plaster I could get with no relief. Sloan's Liniment took the pain right out, and I can now do as much ladder work as any man in the shop, thanks to Sloan's Liniment Mr. J. P. Evans, of Mt. Airy, Ga., says: "After being afflicted for three years with rheumatism, I used Sloan's Liniment, and was cured sound and weu, anu am gi<tu to say j iiavuu i ueeii troubled with rheumatism since. My leg was badly swollen from my hip to my knee. One-half a bottle took the pain and swelling out." ^ Sloan's Liniment y has no equal as a s remedy for Rheumatism, Neuralgia or any pain or stiffness in the ? muscles or joints, t (W? !'
