No Time to Lose
You cannot afford to disregard
the warnings of a weak and
diseased heart and put off tak
ing the prescription of the
world’s greatest authority on
heart and nervous disorders—
MUes’ Heart Cure.
If your heart palpitates; flutters,
or you are short of breath, have
smothering spells, pain in left
side, shoulder or arm, you have
heart trouble and are liable to
drop dead any moment.
Maio J. W. Woodcock, one of the
best known oil operators in the coun
try dropped dead from heart disease
recently, at his home in Portland, lud.,
while mowing his lawn.—The Prewi.
Mrs. M. A. Birdsall, Watkins, N. Y.,
whose portrait heads this advertise
ment, says: “I write this through grat
itude for benefits I received from Dr.
Miles’ Heart Cure. I had palpitation
of the heart, severe pains undei the
left shoulder, and my general health
was miserable. A few pottles of Dr.
Miles’Heart Cure cured me entirely.

Some Not*-* ou What Wm* Done at the
Kt-reut Meeting in Oreenvllle.
Mr. Editor;—1 have had a number
of men to ask me about what was
done rt the good roads meeting at
Greenville recently, and if you will
allow me space 1 will give a few uotes
on what took place there.
The meeting was called for the
purpose of forming some plan for se
curing better country roads. The
plan was just what I have been work
ing for fort he past twelve years. Some
supervisors had one plan and some
another, and there were some oid fo
gies there who said that the old way
of working roads was good enough for
them. Some counties use the con
tract system, some hire overseers and
some do us we do here, don’t pay the
overseers anything. Some use chain-
gangs and some have road scrapers,
so you see how the counties are work
ing their ’roads, but all were in for
good roads even if they had to go
down in their pockets to pay for
them. They realized that the time
has come for better roads.
At Greenville we organized a good
road congress and elected a president,
secretary and treasurer, and tne su
pervisor of each county to act as a
vice president as long as he is in
office. The supervisor has the powt-r
to appoint two or more men and they
are to organize the county. In this
way I think we will have better roads.
I do.think the time has come for
the farmers of this county to hold
meetings looking to the betterment
of our roads. But you need not
think that one dollar will work one
mile of road.
Let us see what other states are
doing in the way of public roads. In
Massachusettes each year the com
mission is allowed to spend $600 000
on road improvements and they now
have 300 miles of improved roads.
Connecticut spends $450 000 yearly
for good roads. Rhode Island has
2 240 miles of highways and 500
miles have been improved by gravel
or stone. New York state has gone
into the good road business; Califor
nia has not been idle, she is up with
the foremost. North Carolina, Dela
ware, New Jersey and Tennessee are
ail making long steps in the way of
good roads You see that South Caro
lina must be up and doing in order
not to be behind her sister states
L t *a h and every one put his
shoulder to the wheel and push out
of the mud and get on gravel and
stone. R M. Jolly.
Mr. Hlckfton’* Sucre**.
Mr. A. P. Hickson who graduated
at Furman University last year be
comes principal of the school at
JSaluda, S. C. Mr. Hickson is a son of
Rev. F. C. Hickson,—South Carolina
Baptist.
'Mr. Hickson is a Gaffney boy,
and bis many friends in Gaffney
and Cherokee, will be glad to learn
that he has a fine position and feel
sure that his high character, fine at
tainment and his good industry,* will
make him successful.

A Step In the Right Direction.
Recently a young white man travel
ing on the .Savannah Division of the
Southern Railway in South Carol na
fired his pistol out of the coach win
dow, Ou arrival at the next station
the conductor turned the party over
to the agent who swore out a warrant
for his arrtst. He was trieU the fol
lowing day and lined tea dollats or m
default of payment to serve twenty
days in the chain gang
While such occurrences as shooting
from car windows and the iike are
not frequent, the agent and the con
ductor are to be commended for their
prompt action, aud the result is an
example that the Railway jificiaie do
all in their power to prevent rowfy-
Ism. and pr t -ct tae feelings as well
as the satet> of their patrons.
While the misbehavior ou nassen-
ger trains in the South is now an un
common thing, yet dealing with same
as above cited on the Southern Rail
way goes a long way towards mi mtain-
ing the confidence of the traveling
public and popularizing the hue.

The kidneys are your
blood purifiers, they fil
ter out the waste or
impurities in the blood.
If they are sick or out
of order, they fail to do*,
their work.
Pains, achesandrheu-
matism come from ex
cess of uric acid in the
blood, due to neglected
kidney treble.
Kidney ‘rouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney-
poisoned biocd through veins and a/teries.
I. used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to bt traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ning in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doc^orng your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinay effect of Dr. Kilmer’s
