Nearly everybody needs good medicine.
The impurities which accumulated in the
blood during the cold months must be ex-
PEELED, or when the mild days come, and
the effect of bracing air is lost, the body is
liable to be overcome by debility or some
serious disease. The remarkable success
achieved by Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
many words of praise it has received, make
it worthy your confidence. We esk you to
give this medicine trial We are sure it
Will do you good. Read the testimonials

To the Memory OF ID. Oscar Brunson,
Who Departed This Life Last Friday

VINO departed This Lille LAST rFluaJ
at His Home at Davis Station.
1t is with a sad heart that Claren-

MN, but more than all will be it to the
comrades of his who followed the for
tunes of Robert E. Lee in the shifting
victories aud defeats, suffering and
privation which none know but those
who followed the Southern Cross,
with numberless odds of the enemy
in front, and suffering and starvation
in the rear.
D. Oscar Brunson left Clarendon

actor and gentle heart always cheered
the darkest hours of soldiers life.
He always looked upon the sunny

needy as soldier. He was as brave
as the bravest. The writer, who
stood by his side in the front ranks

the North aud the South, and on this
line D. Oscar Brunson was seriously
wounded and carried on the back of
his comrade to where he could get
assistance. We see him after he re-
turns home to see his cities in ashes,
his fields desolate, and every home a
house Of mourning. But he hastens
to assist his comrades in reforming
their shattered ranks, preparing and
caring for the women and children
of our desolate land. The Reaper,
Death, las claimed our comrade, and

them that his memory will ever live

THE REVENUE CUT ONE-HALF.
The Eject OF the Supreme Courts Decision
on the Income Tax.

The Eject OF the Supreme Courts Decision
on the Income Tax.
WASHINGTON, April 9.-The effect OF
the supreme courts decision on the in
come tax law, so far as the treasury
department official can determine after
a hurried estimate raade yesterday
afternoon, will be reduction of about
one-half of the revenue originally esti-
mated as obtainabie from that source,
thus making the annual revenue to be
expected about S15, 900, 900. The origi-
nal estimate of $50, 900, 300 per year was
based on the assumption that the law
would be held to be constitutional in
all of its provisions. Collectors of in
ternal revenue will be notified of the
decision and instructed to make what
ever corrections may be necessary
through the decision rendered yester-
day, in the blank forms furnished them
by the commissioner OF internal reve-
nue. No new forms will be issued and
the work of preparation for the collec-
ton OF the tax will proceed without
delay.
