Over-Work Weakens

Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
AH the bVoo in your body passes through

If they are sick or out

I Pains, aches and rheu-

blood, due to neglected

Kidney ^rouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, md makes one feel as though

over-working in pumping thick, kidney-

Bit J Protection.
Writing to the Boston Transcript.
Edgar Howe Forlmsh, New England
agent for the National Association of
Audubon Societies, makes a plea for
the protection of birds. Mr. Forbush
says: “Sixty to seventy years ago
"n>e:i winged teal were abundant In
New England. Now they are rare. Fif
ty years ago blue winged teal were
plentiful. Now they are few. Forty
years ago the wood duck bred com
monly throughout the New Euglaud
staies. Now it is in danger of extermi-
n ition. Already most of the states and
provinces of North America have awak
ened to the necessity of protecting wild
fowl in spring, but Massachusetts and
Rhode Island lag far behind the leader;
in this movement Fully thirty species
of wild fowl that normally visit these
states have practically no protection un
der the law. The statutes ^re so ar
ranged as to allow the shooting of
some of these birds during every month
of the year, while others are protected
only when they are out of the state.”

State Warden of Georgia, says of
Kodol For Dyspepsia: “E. C. De-
Wltt & Co., Chicago, 111.—Dear Sirs—
I have suffered more than twenty
years from Indigestion. About eigh
teen months ago I had grown so
much worse that I could not digest
a crust of corn bread and could not
retain anything on my stomach. I
lost 25 lbs.; in fact I made up my
mind that I could not live but a short
time, when a friend of mine recom
mended Kodol. I consented to try it
to please him and I wag better in ou

Your correspondent and his fr' * 1 * * * d,
Mr. Logan Jenkins, had the pleasure
of attending services at Mt. Ararat
last Sunday. Rev. Mr. Hoke deliver
ed another one of his good and theolog
ical sermons to a very large congre
gation. Mr. Hoke is one of Blacks
burg’s good ministers and a man of
great influence.
Mr. and Mrs. Adolphus Phillips and
children spent last Sunday in Gaff
ney with Mr. and .Mrs. Sol Phillips.
Messrs. Willie Huskey and Stain-
ly Wilson were appointed delegates
to represent Draytonvllle Sunday
school in the convention at Abingdon
Creek next Sunday.
Mr. Paul Bridges and sister, Miss
Mae, of Corinth, attended religious
services at Ararat last Sunday and
spent an enjoyable afternoon with
Mr. Claude and Miss Nellie Hammett.
Mr. Bart Parker, of Gaffney, spent
Saturday night with his father, Mr.
A. J. Parker, at this place.
We notice in last Friday’s issue of
The Ledger that Mr. J. L. S. gave
another good lecture to the girls and
we hope they will take and live it.
We hope that he will give the boys
one after he gets through with the
young married folks as we think that
another one to the boys will help
them. There are some boys who are
very hard headed and it seems libe
they can not be taught how to do.
Some will disobey their parents and
hunt on Sunday as well as any day of
the week and do other things that
they should not do.
Ben Hope, we are glad that you are
well pleased with your letter party
and we hope that you will have the
opportunity to have many more like
that one. We read your good letters
to The ledger and we hope that you
will meet with great success in every
thing you undertake.
The school at Pondfleld will close
next Friday and we are informed that
there will be some good speakers
present as well as the children’s ex
ercises and as your correspondent has
an invitation we will try and give a
report of the exercises. The Ever
green school also closes on that day
and the teacher, Miss Sallie Huggins,
has an invitation to carry her school to
the closing exercises of the Pondfleld
school.
Mr. John Rains, of Gaffney, was a
visitor in our Sunday school last Sun
day and spent the day with his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Rains.
Miss Ola Bailey is spending a few
days with relatives in North Carolina
this week.
Some of the people of this section
planted corn and did some gardening
last week and we think that they will
have to replant before the montn of
April passes.
Wle notice that some of the corres
pondents ask some clock* problems
and we wish to ask one. Here is the
problem: Mr. B. always goes to bed
and gets up on the hour, if the hour
hand of the cock, when he goes to
bed, is exactly opposite to its position
when he gets up, how long does he
rest?. Mr. B. eats his meals when the
hands are exactly perpendicular
(whether opposite to each other or
together). Give his breakfast, lunch
and dinner hours.
Mr. and Mrs. Calep Spencer spent
Saturday night with relatives at
Cherokee Falls and returned home
Sunday afternoon.
The month of April will soon enter
upon its record and we presume the
boys and girls will keep their mall
carriers very busy carrying “April
fools” as well as post cards.
What State contains a great coun
try, a savage and a goddess?
We often think if there are as good
statesmen in our State at present as
there were in formation of this State.
When we read the history of South
Carolina we find the names of a good
many great men such as Pickneys,
Laurens, Drayton, McDuffie, Calhoun
and others too numerous to mention,
whose services were given to make
this State one of the greatest in the
Union. We, are too weak to say and
we will leave this question to be
answered by some one else who may
know and will express his opinion on
this great question.
We thought last Friday when the
cold rain began to freeze and the
snow began to fall, that the fruit
would all be killed but glad to say
that it did not injure it very much
We heard one man say that if the
fruit was not billed he did not know
what would kill it. Fruit is a great
food and when this crop is destroyed
there are a good many people with
hearts full of sorow, but the one that
gives us the fruit knows best in all
things.
.Mr. Cleve Phillips is working at his
saw mill while the ground is too wet
to run his plows. ,
Our champion cow trader says ne
has seen enough of his business writ
ten in the paper by our pen and wants
us to discontinue writing about him.
We don’t know his reasons, but we
presume we are hurting his business
and we have decided to stop until he
does something else. George is a
good fellow and we like to meet him,
especially when we have a good joke
on him.
“C.,” we are glad to have you come
back to Ravenna as we hope you will
give us the news from that section.
We thought, as it was leap year,
some girl had took you and left for
some other section and would not let
you come back home.
We are gald to say that Mr. Forest
Huggins has recovered from a serious
illness and is going about. He went
to Gaffney last Saturday and attended
services at Ararat Sunday. He looks
as well as ever and says he feels all
right, but does not want to go about
too much until he thinks he is out of
danger
Mc/and Mrs. Will Gaffney, of Gaff
ney/ visited Mrs. Gaffney’s mother,
Mrs. Martha Macomson. last Sunday.
Wle hear some people say that it
would be better to have the sale of
whiskey restored bach into the coun
ty of Cherokee. They say that there
would be more money for the educa
tion of the children and It would help
in other ways. We know that there
would be more money for educating
the boys and girls but we do not want
tc get our education with the money
that was given for that cursed drink
called corn liquor, or any other kind.
If the sale of whiskey should be re
established there would be homes of
eternal ruin and furthermore, there
would be homes that where the child
ren are getting an education at pre
sent, would not get to see the inside
of a school room, much less having a
primary book to learn their letters.
We will be glad when the day comes
that whiskey will not be allowed to
enter the State of South Carolina and
all the whiskey houses in the other
States are done away with.
Mr. and Mrs. R. S- Spencer made a
buStness trip to Gaffney last Satur
day.
While we were in town last Satur
day we could not hear anything but
something about the low price of cot
ton. We say, let the people who are
not able to hold their cotton sell it
and those who are able and can hold
it, let it stay in their warehouses as
long as they want to and then sell it.
The mills can not run without cotton
and they are shutting down to a few
days a week now, so those who are
able to hold cotton, just hold on and
when they see that you are going to
be “boss dog of the boneyard,” they
will give you a better price for your
cotton ai d not before.
Mr. William Owensby, of Cherokee
Falls, attended service here last Sat
urday night.
A young man walked up to us last
Saturday and said that he was afraid
that we would mention the way in
which he respected some young ladies
one Sunday, and said that he was
ashamed of the way he did and was
going to stop it. We hope all of the
boys will take this step and be more
polite toward the young Iqdies and the
older ones, too. Be polite to all, bys.
Wte notice in the paj ers that Sen
ator Ben R. Tillman and William Jen
nings Bryan are very ill and that they
are in a very critical condition. We
hope they will have a speedy re
covery.
We often hear people speaking of
which Is the best paper published in
Cherokee county and we find that
they have different opinions, but
when the subject is brought before
us to express our opinion, we give
tl\em the understanding that we stick
to the one published by Editor De-
Camp. We tell them when the other
papers get to be better than ours,
then we will pull away from The Led
ger and not before. We heara one
fellow say -that he would rather give
one dollar and fifty cents for our pa
per than to give fifty cents for the
other papers that are published in our
county. We take pleasure in thank
ing the boys of The Ledger for the
way they treat us and the “Old Man”
for giving us space in his commena-
able paper for our letters.
■Wishing The Ledger and all of Its
readers success.

The person to whom this challenge
was directed had made an effort to
escape towards a party of his friends,
whom he was about summoning to In
aid; and in the attempt had already
ridden some distance into the wood
whither the sergeant had eagerly fob
lowed him.
“Ah ha, old Truepenny, are you

surveyed the scene, “Oh, how earnest

and look that were both impressed, j^Q’g white horse rushing,
with the fierce passion of the scene dangling rein and empty

“The devil blast you. and Major
Butler to boot!” exclaimed Curry ;
roused by Horse Shoe’s air or defi

he shouted, as he discharged a pistol a loud voice!

tailing to take effect, he flung the
weapon upon the ground, brandished
his sword, and spurred immediately
against his challenger. The sweep
of the broasword fell up the barrel of
Horse Shoe’s uplifted rifle, and in the
next instant the broad hand of our
lusty yeoman had seized the trooper
by the collar and dragged him from
his horse. The two soldiers came to
the ground, ..locked in a mutual em
brace; and, for a brief moment, a des
perate trial of strength was exhibit
ed in the effect to gain their feet.
“I have you the^” said Robinson,
as at length, with a flushed cheek,
quick breath, and blood-shot eye, he
rose from the earth and shook the

exclaimed Mildred hs she Sprang up
on her feet; “It is even so!”
The loud huzzas of the troops rose
upon the air; the firing ceased; the
flag of truce fluttered in the breeze,
ana the confederated bands of the
mountaineers, from every quarter of
the late battle, were seen hurrying
towards the crest of the mountain,
and mingling amonst the ranks of the
conquered foe. Again and again, the
clamorous cheering of the victors
broke forth from the mountain-top,
and echoed’ along the neighboring
valleys.
During this wild clamor pnd busy
movement, a party of horsemen were
seen, through the occasional intervals
of the low wood that skirted the val
ley on the right, hastening from the
field with an eager swiftness towards
the spot where Mildred and her com
