Story of a Mure.
To he hound hand and font for venra
by the chains of disease is .the worst
form of slavery. Georjfe D. Williams,
of Manchester, Mich., tells how such a
slave was made free. He says: "My,
wife has been so helpless for live years I
that she could not turn over in bed |
alone. After using: two bottles of Elec- i
trie Bitters, she is wonderfully im- i
proved and able to do her own work."
This supreme remedy for female dis i
eases quickly cues nervousness, sleep- [
lessness, melancholy, headache, hackache,
fainting; <tnd dizzy spells. This
miracle working: medicine is a godsend
to weak,sickly, run down people.
Every bottle guaranteed. Only r?Oc.

Carolina and N. W. Railroad.
Yorkville, Juno 2.?The work '
of broadening the gauge of the
Carolina and N o r 1 liwcs t e r 11 j
Railroad has been commenced:
at Lincolnton, N. C , and the
understanding is that it will he
pushed with the greatest energy
until completed. Quite a unique
arrangement is being pursued
The rails now in use are rather
too liffht for standard trnurre <01
cd ' n n
gincs and a third rail, therefore,
would hardly afford as good a
track as is desirable, so upon
standard gauge ties both narrow
and standard gauge rails
are being laid, and until the
work is completed and for as
long thereafter as may be deemed
proper the present narrow
gauge rolling stock can be used
along with such standard gauge
iolling stock as may hereafter
be purchased. While tlie work
of making the gauge standard
both ways from Lineolnton is in J
progress, a corps of surveyois
will complete the location of |
i
4 v t
the route into Teuuosseo. It is <>f
expected that tlie road will ho tli
standard gauge from Chester to at
Lonoir by next November and to
that the extension into Tonnes- T<
see will be completed very re
shortly thereafter.?News and m

For The Enterprise.
From "J. R. M." {]
n
Editor Enterprise?"Prolii- H]
bitionist's" pretense for a reply 0
to the article of "J. R. M." appears
in your issue of June 2. e
He says : "I will take the Bible j,
for my standard." Yet he asserts
that he is a Prohibitionist. t(
How can a Prohibitionist say p
that he takes the Bible for Ins a
standard (or guide) when he 0
advocates the prohibition of the (j
execution of its mandates? In n
Proverbs xxxi-6, we are com- ^
manded to "Give strong drink
unto him that is ready to perish, p
and wine unto those that be of
heavy hearts." How can this p
be done by Prohibitionists? ]j
They seek to proliibit the sale rf
of "wine and strong drink."
They not only refuse to obey l,
this command, but also seek to ])
prohibit others from doing so. I n
"I). P. II." denounces as devils jp
those who advocate obedience'
to the laws of God, rather thani'r
submission to the dictates of
fanatical Prohibitionists. lie
also charges those who obey the k
command contained in Proverbs 0
xxxi-(> as supporters of a "hell n
bound traffic." Such charges'
plainly indicate their source,!
and renders their author un-l
worthy of notice. But out of
respect to the honest and worthy
advocates of prohibition, we tl
feel it to be our duty to ignore p
the personjility of the author ofjC)
such ridiculous assertions. Nojjj
assertion of "J. K. M." has been i t|
refuted by "D. P. II." in his p
socalled rephr. Ilis <|uotations C(
from the Bible are merely tigur- ,,
ative expressions, and are so I ^
stated by Hitchcock in hisanal-jC(
ysis of tho Bible; therefore, j]
they could not ho used to sot j
;i lywUldlltory cl?\l!S" of S'lid M
Bible. Therefore,. 1 will not (;
trespass further on the claims v
of^he Entkri'RIsk in replying 0
to the prejudiced effusion of a
"P. P. II.," the Prohibitionist. e,

Mr. W. S. Whedon, cashier of the
First National bank of Winterset, I .1
Iowa, in a recent letter gives some
experience with a carpenter in his I N
employ, that will be of value to other s<
mechanics. He says: "I had acarpen- J .
ter working for me who was obliged '
to stop work for several days on ac- 1 p
count of being troubled with diar- ! n
rhoea. I mentioned to him that I had .
been similarly troubled and that j "
chamberlain's Colic, cholera and
hiarrhoea Remedy had cured me. lie
bought a bottle of i' the drug-, v
gist here and informed me that one 1 M
dose cured him, and he is again at his 01
work." For sale by J. F. Mackey A j Co.

Summer School !'? r Lancaster!
County Teachers.
Our summer school opens in
Lancaster on next Monday, 11th
inst., with Prof. L. T. linker.
Principal, and will run. one
month. All teachers desiring to
take advantage of this school
are earnestly requested to meet
Mr. L. T. Baker, Principal, at
the Graded school building at b
o'clock sharp the morning of
the opening.
Our county hoard has decided
to assist in the hoard of teachers
who live distant from Lauras-!
ter and who are compelled to
come here and pay board during
said school term.
This only includes teachers
who are residents of Lancaster

er schools. ta
Feeling the great need for
)tter equipped teachers and th
>siring to advance the cause of de
nc
lucation in our midst, we are cc
iving teachers those special in- re
Licements, which will not *1
lorten the school term more I
tan a few days at most, if any
t all, and will give every child
1 the county, indirectly, the
pportunity of roaping the henlit
of the summer school. d
We have received two or three "
tousand dollars of dispensary
loney and don't think any one ^
liould complain if we use ono
r two hundred of it for* the
etterment of the faithful teachrs
who have our boys and girls

We believe a number of the
of T iiinr*n?toP s?ml
arts of the county have stayed ?ii
way from our summer schools
f the past for fear of making a
isplay of what they know?
Either what they did not know,
low, these are the teachers that
*e are oven the most anxious an
) attend. Jjjj
We also desire that teachers te
e required to attend the regu- r"
