The highly moral institution seems to be considerably undermined' The question is, is it enough so to blow it up? Spontaneous combustion. The Charleston Post says: A special chemical is being used by the water company to do aw r ay with the vegetation in the reservoir, and there is a slight decrease in the odor of the water, due to the efforts of the com pany to reduce the smell. It must be exceedingly encouraging to the Charleston consumers of Goose Creek water that the smell has been slightly decreased. Book Notice The Lion’s Skin, by John S. Wise. A historical novel.

The writer speaks of thedis- lonesty and frauds committed by the Democrats in the elections, whereby the negroes w T ere thrown out of power, and the whites regained control of their state; and how' the fraudulent practices made their impress upon the youth of Virginia and lowered the standard of honesty. This may be all so. And in this respect South Carolina is not different from Virginia. But who made it necessary if it was not that same Republican party? That party forced the whites under the heels of a negro majority, and it was only by such fraudulent practices as were done in all the Southern states that the white race could regain control of their govern- An extra meeting of the city council was held on last Friday afternoon in the mayor’s office to consider the ques tion of the water supply for Aiken. The mayor stated that the city is bonded now to t ie extent of $99,000 and under the constitutional limit only about $45,000 more bonds could be is sued. It remained with the council to decide what should be done. If $45,000 of bonds would not be enough to obtain water from other sources, the only way would be to apply to the legislature for permission to exceed the constitutional limit. Mr. Weasels stated that the present water machinery is in good condition, and now furnishing an abundance of water for the citizens, but it is ques tionable whether a larger supply can be obtained to meet the increasing re quirements of the growing city. The water in the webs has risen 36 feet re cently. but it is a question whether that rise will be maintained. The max imum capacity of the wells is now about 250,fXJ0 gallons per day And the diffi culty is that the consumption is nearly up to this output, and therefore in case of any breakdown serious results may follow. Mr. Thorpe stated that with the heavier, stronger rods put in recently, there is less risk of breakdown now than heretofore. At this season the supply of water is abundant. But next season the demand for water will be greater than it ever has been. Dr. Wyman said that the city was up against getting enough water. It was evident that enough water cannot be got out of the artesian wells, and coun cil has to go elsewhere for a supply. He suggested that a ski lied engineer be employed to examine all the possible in the neigh- borhooi,and to survey tiie route-, etc , and give council some reliable data to work upon. Also that any available water be analyzed. Mr. Busch suggested that options should first be taken on several sources and then an engineer be employed as suggested by Dr. Wyman. Mr. Thorpe said that the water com mittee already has authority to get op tions He felt that artesian water is very’ important for A'ken and that the growth of the city has been very much , encouraged by the good water. He ! thought that the time had come for i having a general meeting of the citi zens to decide this question. It was the most important question the coun cil had met. and the views of the citi- zen< -hould be ascertained before defi nite action was taken. Mr. Busch stated that the Carolina Light and Power company is about to ir 1 ' 1 •mi artesian well, and he thought it best to wait and see whether that j company gets a good supply of water ; ' and if it does that it may be better for council to drill another well in another part of the city, which could be worked by electrical power more cheaply than by steam. In the meantime he advo cated making such conditional arrange ments. in the shape of options, etc., as already suggested, to provide against the necessity of going to any spring or creek lor water. Mr. Wessels stated that there are only four places in the neighborhood from which an abundant supply of water can be obtained. It was the sentiment of council that no water source should be considered that did not yield at least 1,000,000 gal lons per day On motion of Mr. Thorpe it was re solved that the water works committee be authorized to take options on such sources of water as may be available and report as early as possible. Additional rules.in relation to plumb ers were adopted and will be found pub lished in another place.

Vacation time should bring rest, recreation and comfort; and comfort of the solid and pleasing variety means no high collar, no stiff hat and no —itching scalp. It is for this last discomfort that New bro’s Herpicide becomes a summer necessity, and it stops itching of the scalp and Prickly Heat almost instantly. Take Herpicide with you on your vacation. SCALP WARNING. Itching of the scalp is not so much a punishment for past neglect as it is a warning for the future. It shows, almost conclusively, that the vine-like microbic growth that causes dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair lias entered ihe Sabaeeous glands and unless this growth is stopped and kept out of the scalp, baldness will follow. DANDRUFF IS CONTAGIOUS. The discovery of Prof. Unna (ask your doctor about him) that dandruff is a highly contagious disease, is now recognized by dermato logists everywhere. This important discovery not only proves the worthlessness of “Hair growers,” bin it offers an opportunity for scientific hair preservation, in the use 7 ^‘whro’s^I lerriieid ‘ ’ ’ ‘ ‘ “ ae dainirmt gen.' ” WILL NOT GROW HAIR. Newbro’s Herpicide is a "Hair- Saver;" it will not grow hair—nature does this—but by destroying the enemies of hair health, it enables the hair to grow as nature intended—except in chronic baldness. Save your hair with Herpicide. Wonderful results fol low its use. HOT WEATHER TROUBLES During the hot weather the minute sudatory glands of the scalp are called upon to perform an extra amount of labor. The perspiration that exudes in increased quantities must be handled promptly as it carries out poisonous and refuse matter = that would <q,i ier iwise clog up the pores of the scalp.

The foundation of the action brought for injunction is that under theconstitution of South Carolina, in the second section of the 7th article thereof ,it is provided : “An election upon the question of form ing the same proposed new county shall not be held oftener than once in 4 years It is claimed and charged by the plan tiffs that an election was held by orde of the governor in December, 1903, for j the formation of Hammond county, ! which failed, and that the scheme to promote the election of Heyward coun ty is practically and in all essentials the , same as Hammond county—the same county seat—the same territory prac tically ; the same people; the same' promoters, and that the immaterial change in the territory made by the j promoters of Heyward county was f designedly done in order to defeat the | spiritof this section of theconstitution. | The commissioners who are enjoined were proceeding through the act of the leg stature to give out contracts for the makingof varioussurveysnecessary to r port to the governor the information upon which the election was to be order- < d ; and the complaint ailegesthat such expense would be very serious and un necessary upon the counties of Aiken and of EIgetied.ami bu-densome to the tixpayers. and inasmuch as Hammond c .unty and Heyward county were prac- t cally the sanv, every step taken to ward calling the election is unconstitu tional and Void.
