V M H Women as Weil as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney Trouble. Kidney troible preys upon ITie mind, dis- QOUrages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid neys are out'of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has ' become so prevalent that it is not uncommon - //lor a child to be born \\ afflicted with weak kid- ^ neys. If the chtld urin- ates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if. when the child reaches an age v/hen it should be able to control the passage it is yet ai.licted with bed-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the difficir'y is kidney trouble, and the fiis* Step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of tne kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as weil as men are made mis- eraule with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.

I MOVEMENTS OF THE PEOPLE OP LOWER CHEROKEE. Robbed by Thief. Jonesville, Aug. C.—Yesterday while Mr. H. M. Gault and wife, living about three miles south of here, were away from home attending church, some one entered their house and took $G4 In cash. Mr. Gault came here yester day afternoon and had a warrant is sued bv Magistrate Bites and before night two negroes were In the lockup. Mr. Gault believes he has the right parties and as they cannot satisfac torily explain their whereabouts yes terday and have told several conflict ing tales, it look* as if Mr. Gault is correct in his belief. There is nothing so pleasant as that bright, cheerful, at-peace-vrlth-the- world feeling when you sit down to your breakfast. There is noth«nsr so conductive to good work and good re sults. The healthy man with a healthy mind and body is a better fellow, a better workman, a better citizen than the man or woman who is handleipped b- some disability, however slight. A slight disorder of the stomach will derange your body, your thoughts and yonr disQosltlon. Get awav from the morbidness and the blues. Keep your stomaeh la tune and both your brain and body will respond. Litfle indiscretions of overeating can be easily corrected and you will be surprised to see how much better man you are.

Liston expects to begin the sacramental meeting at Salem. The communion will be cele brated on the following Sihliath, the, 20th. Today (Tuesday) Rev. C. M. Teal, assisted by Rev. G. W. Hamrick will begin a series of meeting at Abing don Greek. The meeting will con tinue perhaps through next Sabbath. Rev. .1. II. Wilson lias been couduct- ing a meeting at Sardis. The results have not vet been reported to your correspondent. We made a visit to the Hickory Grove section yesterday and spent list night with the family of Mr. and Mre H. 1$. McDaniel. Mr. and Mrs. Gharlie A. Sparks and children, of Clifton, ca ne dawn last Friday on ° visit to friends- and rel atives in this section. They. too. went over and snent yesterday and last night with the family of Mr. and Mrs. Me Daniel. This is the season for happy family reunions which it is always a pleasure to speak- of when brought to our no tice. There are hallowed memories assoH-Mod with that word—reunion, whether it relates to the gathering of old army comrades or long separated friends and families, and our congra- tulations are extended to all whose good fortune it is to renew their friendship and family relationship In such a way. Miss Lyl Smarr, of Hopewell, we are sorry to say is unwell. She has be' o- the sick list for the past few days. She is a great admirer of The Ledger and one of the best church Hid Sunday school workers in the Salem congregation. We hope she will soon recover. Mr. Robert Smarr has a sick child. It has been right bad off but was get ting better this morning. Miss Blanche Love, of Sharon, is teaching the Dye school on the Queens road two miles south of Hick ory Grove. She is a very popular young lady and highly esteemed by her nupils and patrons. Last week we received a letter from Mr. Isaac Peeler, an old army comrade in Mississippi, who, long years ago was a citizen of the Union center of Cherokee county. He takes The Ledger and has many pleasant things to say of our feeble attemnt at journalism. Among other things he says: “I note with pleasure what you sav about our old and true friend MsKissIck who I helped to elect cir cuit clerk of Union, the first time. I was in Union a few years before he died—had legal business with him. We talk d over his first election. He told me how he was excited. All the boxes were in but Wilkinsvllle and Draytonville—the two extreme north ern ones. Jim Keenan was a few votes ahead. These two boxes were late getting in—so much so he be came Impatient and started in a run to meet them. Some distance above Union he meet that good man Milton Patrick with the returns which put him thirty votes ahead. “I was at Draytonville the day of the election and we carried that box about solid for him. “Some time ago you mentioned an Incident I was much interested in—the recovering of Mr. William Lockhart and two ladies from drowning at Smith's ford, on Broad river, by Mr. A. Frank Smith. “Mr. Smith Is a hero and a great man. I would that our country had more such modest, unassuming heroes. "Mr. Lockhart and I were very closely related. I was also well ac quainted with the Misses Dunn. Your letters in The Ledger are like getting a letter from my old home.- The names of persons and places are familiar to me. Some rel ated. and children and grandchildren of mv old time friends.” Besides the foregoing extract from k’'- letter we would be glad to repro duce a diagram of the battlefield of Shiloh which he seRit us and to which w« incidentally referred a short time a f, o in one of our letters. Mr. Peeler was I” that battle and beln* a man of brains Is capable of giving much Interesting Information that the read ers of history will appreciate. There is nothing that our old sol diers (and particularly a Southerner) appreciates so much as the mention of one or more of the battles of the civil war in which he received the baptism of blood. Just mention them If you wish to see his falling eyes flash with the beam of youth, and his faltering stpn assume the electricity of outh and early manhood. To him these memories are precious treas uries for which be would not take a world of empty flattery. To him the clock of time turns backward forty-four years and he seea charging squadrons, bristling bayonets and flashing sabres. To this add the Poetry of thundering cannons, ratr tllng musketry and the huzzahs of victorious armies and he kneels to the God of war or the only being worthy of his adoration. Mr. Richard Whitesides, of Hickory Grove, was kicked in the head by a mule last Sabbath and his injuries were considered quiet serious. He Is •’■“tting better now. Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Inman visited their daughter. Mrs. Lottie Smarr, at Hopewell last Sabbath. Hon. D. E. Finley made l hurried visit to this section last Frldav and net the voters of Wilkinsvllle and ^Ive them a short speech. He went from here to Armenia In Chester coug- ty where he was to address the voters and people of that section on Satur day. He crossed Howell’s ferry on a high tide Friday evening. Misses James George, Eddie Wright and T J. Estes have been selected managers of election at Wilkinsvllle ' • the coming primary. Mr. Lawrence Bn ice, son of Mr. and Mrs. Sillis Buice, of Georgia, is on a visit to friends and rel Hives in this section. He went to see his cousin. Mr. W. A. Buice, on Mr. W. R. Walker’s Sunnyside place yester day. Crops on the York side of Broad river are fipe. especially the corn. In many places there has been too much rain for the cotton, and corn on the low lands is drowned out. Mr H. B. McDaniel has a fine crop of both. Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Blackwell will accompany Mr. and Mrs. Charlie A. Snarl's on their return home to Clif ton tomorrow. In our letter in Friday’s paper the types make ns say that the distance of Sirins (the dog star) is one hnn- Ced and thirty million instead ot one hundred and tnirtv tliousmi millaui of milos or one hundred and thirty trillion miles. There lias been a good deal of sick ness and dying among the cattle in this community, so we are told. Some young people think tlie courting is Iqo much of a luxury to bo spoiled by marrying. in a private letter from Mr. W. C. D. Estes, of Adona, Ark., wo learn that he experts to visit his old home ami friends this fall and winter. Mrs Nancy Wylie, of Hopewell, Is sick. There is a lot of chills and fever on Bullock’s creek at this time. Rev. John R. Osment preached at Abingdon Creek yesterday. He will ^ •haps be there during the protracted meeting this week. No nly all the corn and hay on the Law lands along Gilky and Thickety creeks has been drowned out by the wet weather. A few farmers who didn’t finish their crops before the rain came, are laying it by now. Will some Bible reader please tell us who said “I have played the fool? Mr. and Mrs. J L. Wright, of Shel by. X. C., who have been visiting in this section returned home vesterday. Sim Lee l as been working the pub lic roads. Our people should bear in mind that if the roads are not kept In passable order they may be deprived of the R. F. 1). mail service. That is one condition on which this service is given to the people. The road from here to Salem church is in bad con dition and should be attended to at once. We have been getting all the melons and fruit we want to eat. but on account of so much wet weather it is not so good as it would have been with more sunshine. Messrs. C. A. Sparks and Sam Strain and Leslie Blackwell and Mas ters Jessie Sparks. Archie Sparks and Archie Strain went down to see Mr. W. R. Walker’s cattle last Saturday. J. L. S. LEADER Of MOB NOW IN JAIL.
