Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indiges?
tion. It is a scientific fact that all cases of
heart disease,, not organic, are not only
traceable to, bul are the direct result of indi?
gestion. All 'food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the 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.

FACTS SUGGEST POSSIBILITY.
How Conditions North and South May
Become Reversed.
Personal observation in the North
suggests some bewildering and stag?
gering possibilities. At Cincinnati
j colored policemen walk the streets.
? In an excursion party coming from
the country to the city last Sunday
afternoon colored and white people
walked from the station side by side.
Two couples, white men and colored
women, had all +he appearances of
being man and wife, strolling along
together with an easy and familiar
air of married people. In the hotel
at Indianapolis on Wednesday, a col?
ored man about a quadroon, walked
in, hat on and cigar in his mouth,
went to the desk1 of a white girl who
is a public stenographer in the lob?
by, sat by her, dictated three or four
letters, gave orders as to their dis?
position .and departed.
These instances show how surely
the idea of social equality is spread
ing and becoming familiar in that
part of the country. How could it
be otherwise with mixed schools,
with negro children and white chil?
dren sitting on the same benches,
the same playgrounds, taking part
visiting each other's house and sit?
ting at the same table ? What is to
prevent boys and girls of the two
races and color brought up together
in that kind of relationship, taught
to recognize no difference, from in?
termarrying, when they have become
men and women? The law does not
forbid it, and theoretically, at least,
encourages it. Assuming the Indian?
apolis quadroon', to be a prosperous
business man, as he appeared to be,
why should not the white girl in the
hotel lobby, probably accustomed
from her days in the public schools
to recognize negroes as her equals,
marry him if he asks her? Why,
should the white janitor on the.beat
cf the negro policeman forbid his
daughter from marrying the negro,
who is his superior officer and his
equal socially a?cordinf to law and
custom?
It is easy to see that the negroes
in the South may drift North, where
they have the opportunities denied
them in this section. It is equally
easy to imagine that presently white
people in the North who inherit pre?
judices and hold the instinct for the
preservation of their racial and blood
purity, may presently begin to come
South, knowing that here their ?ons
and daughters will be protected by
law and by overwhelming and en?
during sentiment against amalgama?
tion with the negroes. So it may
come about that some generation r.ot
many years hence may see a strong
tide of negroes moving to the North
and the whites coming ?outh; and in
the course of thirty or forty years the
position of the sections may be re?
versed exactly.
Children now born may live to see
the time when the South will have a
population purely white and all the
great North and West will be inhab?
ited by a mixed breed of mulattoes.
This* is not a certainty, we hope not
even a probability; but with present
conditions and the races continuing
and the laws remaining as they are
it is a possibility worth some curious
consideration and speculation.-Rich?

CIVIC LEAGUE NOTES.
Valuable Information Furnished by
American Civic Association.
In response to a letter of inquiry
addressed to The American Civic As?
sociation the following valuable in?
forma ntion has been furnished by its
President, J. Horace McFarland:
As to the trimming proposition, it
must be absolutely restricted if you
are to have good trees. If the trees
come to you to fair order with a good
root system they will need the cut?
ting off of all mutilated roots and a
reasonable shortening in of the up?
per tranches to a symetrical shape,
cutting in each case close to a bud,
smoothly. If they are then planted
iu l?:rge holes, carefully dug, and
each tree surrounded by some good
soil without any fresh manure, they
should live and grow and require no
other trimming for many years, save
such as ?s included in rubbing off as
soon as they appear buds and shoots
on the lower part of the stem. An?
nual trimming simply for the sake of
trimming is absolutely vicious, and
must be prohibited. There is* no more
necessity for trimming a tree once a
year -han there is for trimming a per?
son's ears once a year.
Trees while young must be staked
if they are to do well. There are
modern tree guards of wire which are
good, but they are expensive. If you
will plant with the tree a good solid,
hard-wood stick, say 2 by 4, driving
it firmly into the ground after the
hole is dug so that it is substantially
plant sd, and will fasten the tree to
this by a band of leather, or old hose,
or strong soft cloth, which is crossed
between the tree and the stake, tack?
ed on the back of stake, the trees will
be well protected while they are re?
fastening themselves with a new root
stem. Please note that the fastening
i
of the tree to the stake is of the ut?
most importance, as if it is tightly
bounr. to the stake will chafe
and hurt itself, but if it is held by the
strap above described, which is loop?
ed around the tree and then crossed
before the strap passes around the
post, it will be in a sling and cannot
don- ge itself.
? Slopping Over.
The investigating i committee in
Columbia has made its animus so
plain that it has negatived even the
good work done and has generally
failed, or very "near failed, of its
purpose. . A correspondent of the
State this morning, showing signs of
the too common fault of "slopping
over" whenever there is an opportu?
nity for it, suggests the prominent
members of the committee for State
offices. This would be a fitting crown?
ing of a very spectacular campaign,
but none if the gentlemen mentioned
could be elected, none could avoid
being for ever buried in the State.
Later on, "when their work has shown
for itself, when it is proved right or
wrong, it might be time to ask the
public appreciation of a duty well
done, but now it is a duty very crude?
ly done and many very important
questions to be answered to the satis?
faction of the public before the com
mitte is worthy of such public en?
dorsement of th?ir work. We believe
that' the gentlemen of the committee
have too much sense and judgment to
offer for political office at this time.
If the public get the Mea that they
are office seekers they will be as ef?
fective as spring water at a stag ban?
quet.-Florence Times.
How to Break Up a Cold.
?It may be a surprise to many to
leam ahat a severe cold can be com?
pletely broken up in one or two days'
time. The first symptoms of a cold are
a dry, loud cough, a profuse watery
discharge from the nose, and a thin,
white coating on the tongue. When
Chamberlain's Cough remedy is taken
every hour on the first appearance of
these symptoms, it counteracts the ef?
fect of the cold and restores the sys?
tem to a healthy condition within a
day or two. For sale by all druggists.
I Death of Mrs. Sutton.
Bishopville, June 21.-Mrs. Geo. F.
Sutton, aged 37 years, died at her
home near herc yesterday at 7 p. m.
She has been in feeble health for
several months and at times seemed
to be improving. She leaves a hus?
band a.nd eight children, the youngest
ot" wllich is only a fer/ hours old.
Heart trouble is said to be the cause
of her death. Mrs. Sutton was a
faithful member of the Bishopville
Baptist church. The funeral ser?
vices and burial took place this even?
ing at 4:30 at Cedar Creek cemetery.
Unknown Friends.
?There are many people who have
used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera, and
Diarrhoea Remedy with splendid re?
sults, tut who are unknown because
they hesitated about giving a testimo?
nial of their experience for publication.
These people, however, are none the
less friends of this remedy. They
have done much toward making it a
househ>ld word by their personal re?
commendations to friends and neigh?
bors. lt is a good medicine to have in
the home and is widely known for its
cures cf diarrhoea and all forms of

THE NEGRO OX THE FARMS.
He Cultivates Nearly Half a Billion
Dollars' Worth ol Land in This
Country, Mostly in the South.
A supplementary report of the cen?
sus of 1900, just issued, snows that
ihe value of the farms of the United
States cultivated hy negroes, was
$499,941,234. all but a small fraction
of the maount representing farms in
the South. Buildings were worth $71,
902,000; land, $324,242,000; live stock
$84,936,000; implement?, etc., $18,
$59,000: The average value per
farm was $630; of the buildings, $96;
of live stock, $114; of implements, etc
$25; of land, $434.
Over half of all negro ' farms are
in Mississippi, South Carolina, Ala?
bama and Georgia. The number of
farms held by negroes was 746,715;
the aggregate acreage, 38,233,920;
the average acreage per farm being
51.2. From one-half to two-thirds of
these farms was improved land. Only
five States north of Mason and Dix?
on's line reported over 1,000 farms
held by negroes. Of the entire num?
ber of negro farms *'n the United
States 517,000 were of 50 acres or un?
der, the number under from 20 to 50
acres being 343,173. An idea of the
area held by negro farmers may be
gathered from the fact that their
acreage of 38,233,933 acres is 9,741
square miles, or about the area of
New England.
The value of all products of negro
farms in 1899 was $255,. 51,145, of
which sum $25,843,443 represented
products fed to live stock. For la?
bor there was paid $8,789,792; for fer?
tilizers, $5,614,844. The farm homes
of negroes were 758,463, or 41.4 per
cent, of all the homes of negroes in
the United States. About one-fourth
of all negro farmers owned their
farms. "The massing of negroes, ten?
ant farming and cotton culture," says
the report, "appear to be correlated
facts, the first resulting from the
last."
As respects the distribution of ne?
groes owning farms, Maryland is cred?
ited with 2,262; Delaware. 332; Dis?
trict of Columbia, 5; Xorth Carolina,
17,520; West Virginia, 534, and Vir?
ginia; 26.566. the last mentioned state
leading all the southern states in this
regard.
An Alarming Situation
?Frequently results from neglect of
clogged bowels and torpid liver, until
constipation becomes chronic. This
condition is unknown to those who use
Dr. King's New Life Pills, the best and
gentlest regulators of stomach and
bowels. Guaranteed by Sibert's Drug
Store. Price 25c.
The Promotion of Pecan Culture.
Texas members of the American
Civic Association are conducting a
campaign of education in reference to
the planting of paper shell pecan
trees. Many reasons t are advanced
why pecan culture should be more
generally engaged in throughout the
State.
At Temple, where Arbor Day was
first observed in Texas, trees were
plentifully planted when the town
was laid out, twenty-five years ago,
and there is now plenty of shade, but
it is argued that if all the trees were
Pecans they would be a source of
profit as well as of pleasure.
Heretofore there has been objection
to the planting of Pecan trees, owing
to the time consumed between the
planting of the nut and the' fruiting
of the trees. This objection is now
overcome by transplanting the tree at
about five years of age, from the na?
tive fotest, and afterward grafting on
it buds from the paper shell variety.
Experience has demonstrated that
within a year or two after this has
been done the tree will be bearing
paper shell nuts.
.Thousands annually bear witness
to the efficiency of Early Risers. These
pleasant, reliable little pills have long
borne a reputation second to none as
staple as bread in millions of homes,
a laxative and cathartic. They are as
Pleasant but effective. Will promptly
relieve constipation without griping.
