The bill provides for the taxing of dogs, and the meat of the bill is in this paragraph: "And any person or persons failing or neglecting to return any dog or dogs owned by them, or the habitat of which is upon his or their premises, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be fined notj less than ten dollars nor more than} - *- 1 1 J-H*-- K? imnria. ne nunareu uuuars, uj uj ?nment for not more than thirty days." Mr Stevenson had an amendment adopted to the Sturkie bill by which the county auditor is to supply all tax-paying dogs with tags bearing the date of the return, and if any dog should appear in public after January 1 without a tag for the current year anyone is at liberty to shoot him. Some of the members wanted to have some fun out of the "yellow dog" bill, as it is called, but the House took a more serious view of it, and if they cannot get rid of the dog they decided to tax him. Mr Mixson, of Barnwell, wants the Sheriff whenever he seizes any contraband liquor to handle it in a business-like manner and make return of it to the county. In other words, his idea is that the Sheriff must turn over the liquor seized and the county officials are to have it analyzed and sell it for what it is worth and credit the county with the amount derived from the sale. The House passed the bill. There was quite a lively tussle over the bill fathered by the Sheriffs to allow Sheriffs, rural policemen, as well as the Commissioner of Agriculture, Commerce and Industries to use complimentary or free railroad tickets. The House by a vote of 48 " - a j l-jii *1? u:n tut. 10 44 reiuseu to Kill uic uui. mi Eppc; led in the opposition to the bill largely on the ground that the railroads were not going to give passes or anything else to anybody without return, The House, however. thought well of the idea of allowing Sheriffs to ride on free passes whe .i they were traveling on official business, and the bill was finally passed permitting Sheriffs and the Commissioner of Agricuiture to accept free transportation to be used strictly on official business. As the bill came from the Senate it provided that rural policemen might i use passes, but Mr Stevenson thought that this was overdoing the j matter, and had the rural policemen stricken from the provision of the VAIi* SIGNALS OF DISTRESS. llofistree People Should Kbov How to lead and Heed Them. Disordered kidneys give many signals of distress. The secretions may be dark, contain sediment. Passages are sometimes frequent, scanty, painful. Eackache is often present day and night Eleadaches and dizzy spells may occur. Weakened kidneys should receive quick help. Don't delay! Use a special kidney remedy. Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak kidneys, backache and urinary disorders. Marion evidence proves their worth. J T Dozier, deputy sheriff, Marion, S C, says: "I had backache, coupled with pains across my loins and my kidneys were badly disord ;red. I read about Doan's Kidnej Pills and deciding to try them, I got a box. After using them a short time, the backaches and pains left me and my kidneys became normal." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mr Dozier had. Foster-Milburn Co.

Be thought be might aa -veil experiment once anyway. 8? be and his wife had a nice time ftHlng out the yellow order slip according to their needs and revenue. Then they sent it on Its way to the firm which promised them thrilling bargains to all lines of merchandise from pins to palaces. The 8mlths had made one trip to town. The day bad been characterised by haste, hanger and worry. They hadn't bad time to bay what they wanted. So the catalogue seemed to soire toe problem for them. It seemed as if It were going to save them lots of time, energy, money and brain fag: 8hipment Arrives. It was a beautiful pre-Chrlstmas dream made up in four measures of comfort, confidence, curiosity and hope. The awakening came afterward, likewise the disillusionment Their shipment arrived two days before Christmas. This was very reassuring. But it necessitated a special drive of nine miles to the nearest express office. The 0. 0. D. express charges were unexpectedly high. The first intimation of a mistake came with the realization that the express charges exceeded the difference in price between home 8 to re and catalogue house arti- ' clea Traffic bad been congested and tae passage rough. Damage was viable. Smith boped It wasn't serlons, but be took his stuff borne with unpleasant forebodings, and that night when the family was asleep be and bis wife opened the package In the kitchen.

There was a lot of excelsior to unpack, but when the work was done and the contents stood revealed there was a verbal fireworks display on the part of 8mtth, who forgot for the moment that he was a deacon la the church, and Mrs. Smith's tears were bitter. The parlor lamp was a scream. Its embellishments were hrH enough to light s colored Baptist church without the aid of acetylene.

Passing up the balance of the "alleged bargains," the baby's stocking was the piece de resistance ef their Christmas feast It was a tarlatan affair. decorated with green and zed yarn tassels and filled with junk that represented the discard of a one cent norelty stock and exuded suggestions of bacteria from top to toe.

Next morning Smith hitched op old Bess, and he and his wife plodded to towd again through the slush to get a bona fide supply of Christmas gifts. ; What they bought then had the guarantee of the manufacturer, the dealer and their own eyes, for by this time the Smiths were strictly from Missouri They bad had their lesson. But bow many thousands of Smiths [ and Joneses in this country who have had a lesson, but hesitate?in fact, absolutely refrain?from letting their neighbors and friends know that they have been through the same expert- i ence! The reason that they do not admit It Is easily explained in a few words. They are ashamed to acknowledge | their cupidity and are waiting the opportunity to see their neighbor bite. After their neighbor fell Into the trap they decided that the best use to which their catalogue could be put was to lay it under the Yule log and start a holiday blase going Is the old fashioned fireplace. RAUOAO BWUTKH ITUI. MaehlMlctc olCft W QittWMtProspect of Settlement Kemete. Georgetown, February 21:?The first "strike" in the history of Georgetown county is now on, hard and fast, and after several days of effort on the part of mediators between the contending parties to bring about a solution of the vexed question involved, there appears no chance of adjustment. The machinists of the shops of the Georgetown and Western Railroad company, at Andrews, quit and walked out upon the refusal of the new superintendent of the road, Mr J A Emmart. to allow extra pay for --J o 1 1. overtime ana ououa; wui*., buui a* has obtained heretofore. Up to this time the men in the shops at Andrews have received time and half rates for all work done over the tenhour day and for Sunday work. It is claimed that such overtime ii allowed machinists everywhere. The recent order of Superintendent Emmart rescinding this rule on the Georgetown and Western railway has met with a stubborn resistance, and the machinists seem determined to cease work and prevent interference in the Andrew! shops. It is said that strikebreakers have been brought into Andrews to resume operations, but upon learning the nature of the grievance from the local machinists, returned from whence they came. It is claimed that Mr Em mart is acting with a view to reduction of expenses, ' and refuses to alter his decision to , pay straight time only. What the outcome will be, no one can tell. The meu are being backed by the International Association of Ma- * chinist9, and are "standing pat" for 1 what they claim to be their rights. Mr Robert Fechner, of the execu- ' tive board of the association, has ' been here in the interests of the ^ Btrikers, and endeavored to open ] negotiations with the railroad 1 authorities. He was told, it is said, 1 there was nothing to negotiate, and 1 has returned to his home in Savannah. After an incumbency dating since November,1866, Rev Charles S Ved- i der, D D, has resigned the pastorate of the Huguenot church,Charles- J ton.
