I was all run down from nervous
ness and o verwork and had to resign
my position and take a rest. I
found that I was not gaining my
strength and health as fast as 1
could wish, and as your Wine of
Cardui was r<‘Commended aa such a
good medicine for the ills of our
sex, I bought a bottle and began
using it. 1 was satisfied with the
results from the use of the first
bottle, and took three more and then
found I was restored to good health
and strength and able to take up
my work with renewed vigor. I
consider it a fine tonic and excellent
for worn-out, nervous condition,
and am pleased to endorse it.

Report of Condition of Crops Through
out the State.
Columbia, June 20.—The week end
ing 8 a. m., June 19th, had a mean
temperature slightly above normal,
with extremes of a maximum of 98
degrees at Blackville on the 13th, and
a minimum of 60 degrees at Green
ville on the 13th. The sunshine
averaged about normal, although in
parts of the State there was consider
able cloudiness the latter part.
There were no destructive high winds,
or other damaging conditions.
The precipitation was in the form
of thunderstorms and local showers.
The rainfall was heavy in places in
the eastern counties, where it ranged
from half an inch to over two inches,
with scattered localities in all parts
of the State that had no rain or
or amounts too small to be beneficial.
There were some heavy showers in
the northern border counties but they
were widely scattered. The need of
rain is indicated for the central and
southwestern counties, generally, and
in places elsewhere.
Cultivation made rapid progress
and nearly all fields have been rid
of grass and weeds, except where la
borers were scarce, or where the
ground has become to*) hard to plow
and cultivate. The weather was fa
vorable for harvesting wheat and oats,
which work is nearly finished except
for spring oats.
There was a general improvement
in the condition of cotton, with except-
oins in the case of fields that have not
been thinned or cleaned of grass, but
only in exceptional instances have the
plants attained normal growth, though
generally undersized. Blooming is still
sporadic, though fairly general in
the eastern counties. Sea island cot
ton is in good condition hut as yet
blooming sparsely. Idee are still
present in. sections, but are disap-
pearng. Chopping has not been fin
ished.
There has been only slight improve
ment in corn, which continues small
and yellow, except, on fields that re
ceived early and thorough cultivation.
There are many complaints of corn
tasseling low, and of damage by
worms. There is considerable land
yet to be planted to corn.
There is little change in the con
dition of tobacco, which shows the ef
fects of too much rain, and lack of cul
tivation. Rice is receiving its harvest
water in the Colleton district, and is
generally doing well. Gardens and
pastures need rain in the central and
western parts. Melons are quite prom
ising. Wheat is yielding poorly at
threshing. Oats also are generally
poor, but with numerous exceptions
where the yields range from good to
excellent. A large acreage of peas,
for forage, being sown, and more lands
will be sown as soon as it rains.
Two Well Known Men Charged With
Attempting to Influence Jurors.
Raleigh, N. C., June 17.—The sensa
tion in the State is the finding of two
well-known white men of this county
guilty of attempting to influence the
jurors for Kilgo in the well-known
case of T. J. Gattis, a Methodist min
ister, against President Kilgo, of
Trinity College, and B. N. Duke, of
the American Tobacco Company,
which was non-suited here yesterday,
Kilgo and Duke being charged with
malicious libel.
The action was taken by Judge
Fred Moore, presiding in the superior
court. He issued bench warrants for
J. Rowan Rogers, former Republican
sheriff, and now court receiver in the
federal court here, and J. P, Sorrell,
a prominent farmer. The testimony
of two veniremen, one accepted as a
juror, was that Rogers and Sorrell
had been to them and urged them to
help out Dr. Kilgo in his suit, and
they would be taken care of if trouble
came.
Kilgo, Duke and their known attor-
noys swore that they knew nothing
of the matter. Judge Moore tonight
found both Rogers and Sorrell guilty
and sent them to jail for 30 days with
a fine of $50 each.
MR. JETTON PARALYZED.
Very Appropriate to the Season.
There never were a better people
than the people of South Carolina.
They have had hitter enemies and they
have been occasionally much maligned
but when it comes to the highest
grace of all the grace of loving kind
ness, they cannot be beaten this side
of heaven. Pardon my partiality, for
I really think so.
Now. ail this sweet talk lias a pur
pose— it is a prelude to a suggestion
to the people of this generous State
to set their generous hearts to a task
before the summer vacation begins.
And it is about to begin just now.
Have you thought of your little or
phan brothers and sisters? There
are two hundred of them in the Pros-
tiyferian orphanage at Clinton! Thorn-
well): there are two hundred more in
the Raotist orphanage at Greenwood
(Connie Maxwell): there are nearlv
that many at the Methodist orphanage
tEti wort lit at Columbia.
T know sornethimr of tin* condition
'.f these denominational homes, for I
have a standing welcome at all of
them, and who ought it) know then
better than 1? i know that at this
season of the year they are always
sorely pressed for the necessities of
life, and this little love letter to my
brethren of the different denomina-
tiens is to suggest that, each of you
send at once your ch<ck or a barrel
of flour, or rice, or molasses, or even
a sack of grits, to the orphanage you
love best. June and July are the best
times to send just now. Everybody
with a heart ought to feel it a privi
lege to do it. At any of these homes
a nickel will give a child a good meal
and five dollars will board a child for
a month. There are six hundred of
these children in your church orphan
age. And that does not count the
Episcopal and Catholic homes in
Charleston, or the Charleston orphan
house, supported by the city, or the
colored industrial orphanages in Char
leston and Columbia, run by those two
good colored men Jenkins and Carroll,
who deserve the help and sympathy
of the white people of this State.
And I d*i hop** they will not be for
gotten.
Now. sit down quickly, dear friend,
before you take your own vacation,
and before you forget it. and do some
thing for tb** Institution that you love
best. This is the season when nearly
everybody is fixing for a good time.
Your dear little brothers ami sisters
at. tne orphanages ought to have a
good time, too.
Your friend and fellow citizen.
W. P. Jacobs.

Davidson Man Stricken While on the
Street.
Davidson, June 20.—Mr. John Jet
ton, Sr., suffered a partial stroke of
paralysis yesterday morning while on
the street. Apparently, he had had
no intimation of any approaching at
tack, except that he was not feeling
very well and just a moment before
had asked Dr. Wooten which way he
was going to drive, intending to ask
him to carry him out as far as the
Jetton residence. Suddenly he found
himself unable to walk and at the
same time lost the power of speech.
He was taken in charge by friends
and carried home in a vehicle. It was
not long before he recovered the use
of his limbs and was soon able to
talk again. It is hoped by his many
friends that the attack is only tem-
porary and that the “’Squire.” as .he
is called by everybody, will soon be
well. His wife has been critically
ill but is now better.
Impaired Digestion
May not be all that Is meant by dyspepsia
now, but it will be if neglected.
The uneasiness after eating, fits of nerv
ous headache, sourness of the stomach, and
disagreeable belching may not be very bad
now, but they will be it the stomach is
suffered to grow weaker.
Dyspepsia is such a miserable disease
that the tendency to it should be given
early attention. This is completely over
come by
Hood's Sarsaparilla
which strengthens the whole digestive system
Could Not Remember Hi* Prayer.
John Rogers was station master at
Coupar-Angus, on the Caledonia rail
way, says an exchange. He was a
pious man, but, like manv other rail
way men, he waxed a little profane
under excitement. John was a mem-
ber of the local Burns Society and at
tended the annual dinner regularly,
getting a little mellow by closing time.
After one dinner he got home among
the “wee sma’ oors,” undressed him
self with some difficulty, and went
down on his knees beside the bed,
where he sent forth some incoherent
mutterings.
"What’s the matter, John?” asked
his better half. “Are ye no feelin’
well?”
“Am feelin’ a’ richt,” replied John,
“but a’ canna mind a damned wird
o* ma prayers.”
Blocker—Say, old chap. I’m in beast
ly bad luck: need money badlv and
haven’t the least idea where I can get
it.
Baxter—Well. I’m glad to hear that
—I thought perhaps you had an idea
you could touch me for it.

One Lonely 1 * Male.
Editor Ledger.—1 am in this beauti
ful litte town now “taking in” the
Catawba summer school.
Yorkville Is one of the prettiest
towns in upper South Carolina. It has
quite a large number of beautiful
shade trees; the larger part of the
town is as level as a town in central
Florida. I can say further that It has
a large number of handsome young
men and a larger number of fair
maidens.
The summer school, I am sorry to
say, is not so large as I think it
should be. There are about fifty teach
ers here, and I am sorry indeed that
out of that number I am the only male
teacher present. Out of five large
counties Just one boy teacher attend
ing the summer school!
There were three male teachers the
first few days, hut one of them went
to Clr-mson College this morning to
attend the school there and the other
one got scared at so many ladies and
nut out for home today. So you see
“Pete” is in the “hopeless minority,”
and if the lady teachers keep on com
ing in and no boys, he, too. may get
frightened and take the train for
Cherokee county before the four weeks
are out.
All the teachers that are present
seen to bo enjoying the school ever
so much. T am sure I am. for one.
Wo have four of the best instructors,
or as "00*1. T may say. as can he found
! -i the State, viz- Pro*. ThO'.un c *on,
f’rof Hard. Prof. Brarih’t. and Miss
Goldsmith.
Tam sn-e thev are doing their best
to make the school interesting.

Cuban Diarrhoea.
U. S. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what
this disease is, and that ordinary re
medies have little more effect than so
much water. Cuban diarrhoea is al
most as severe and dangerous as a
mild attack of cholera. There is one
remedy, however, that can always be
depended upon as will be seen by the
following certificate from Mrs. Minnie
Jacobs, of Houston, Texas: “I here-
by certify that Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy cured
my husband of a severe attack of Cu
ban diarrhoea, which he brought home
from Cuba. We had several doctors
but they did him no good. One bottle
of this remedy cured him. as our
neighbors will testify. I thank God
for so valuable a medicine.” For sale
by Cherokee Drug Co.

The following letter from Robert
R Watts, of Salem, Mo., is instructive.
“I have been troubled with kidney dis
ease for the last five years. I lost
flesh and never felt well and doctored
with leading physicians and tried all
remedies suggested without relief.
Finally I tried Foley’s Kidney Cure
and less than two bottles completely
cured me and I am now sound and
well.” Sold by Cherokee Drug Co.

Quality vs. Quantity.
Hard muscles and strong body do not
depend on the quantity of food you
eat, but on its perfect digestion and
proper assimilation. When you take
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure your system
gets all the nourishment out of all
the food you eat. It digests what you
eat regardless of the condition of the
stomach and conveys the nutrient
properties to the blood and tissues.
This builds up and strengthens the
entire system. Kodol cures Indiges
tion, Dyspepsia, Belching, Sour Stom
ach, Weak Heart, etc. Sold by Chero
kee Drug Co., Gaffney; L. D. Allison,

Weak
Hearts
Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of orwy
one hundred people who have heart troublo
can remember when it was simple indigeo*
tlon. It is a scientific fact that all cases of
heart disease, not organic, are not onhr
traceable to, but are the direct result of Indi
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swellsthe stomach, puffing it up against the
heart. This Interferes with the action of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.
