HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water glass
with urine and let it stand tw6ntv-fOur
hours; a sediment or settling indicates a
diseased condition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is positive evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out Of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the KNOWLEDGE so
often expressed that DR.. Gilmer's Swami
Root, the great liver remedy fulflls ev-
cry wish in relieving pain in the back.
kidneys, liver, bladder anu every part of
the urinary passages. 1t corrects inabil-
ity To hold urine and scalding pain in
passing it, or bad effects following the
use OF liquor, wine or beer, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity Of being
compelled to get up many times during
the night to urinate. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its wonderful cures of the most distress
ing cases. If you ICED medicine you

TOO MUCH or TINS MERCY.

Referring to the case Of old Mrs. No
bIes and the amenability Of criminal
women to the rigOrs of the criminal
law on equal terms with the sterner
sex, there is being INDUCED in a deal
of sickly sentiment and maudlin gush
that is more creditable to the chicken
hearts than to the better and maturer
Judgment Of practical daily experience
with criminal classes of all sexes,
Leaving sentiment out of the ques-
ton, and looking upon the criminal
with the stern eye of the law, Judge
Mckay of the supreme court of Georgia
spoke as follows in the case of Susan
Eberhart, who was hanged in Web
ster county some years ago:
lit gives us great pain to be COM
PEELED by our sense of duty to the law
and to the public to affirm this judy
ment. We have, however, no sympa-
thy with that sickly sentimentality
that springs into action whenever a
criminal is at length about to suffer
AOL a u lhIC' IL may Uc d 81 = ii VI q IeL-
der heart, but it is also the sign of one
not under proper regulation. Society
demands that crime shall be punished
and criminals warned, and the false
humanity that starts and shudders
when the ak of justice is about to
strike is dangerous element for the
peace OF society. We have had too
much Of this mercy. 1t is not true
mercy, 1t only looks to the criminal.
bat we insist upon mercy to society
upon justice to the poor woman whose
blood cries out against her murderers
That criminals go unpublished is a dis
grace to our civilization, and we have
reaped the fruits of it IN the frequency
with which bloody deeds occur. 4
stern, unbending, unhinching admin
istration Of the penal law, without re-
gard to position or sex, as it is the
highest mark Of civilization is also the
surest mode to prevent the commission
of offences"

BOUGHT A GOLD" BRICK.
An Americas Business Man Taken in for
Thousands.

A prominent business man of Ameri-
Gus, who should have known better, is
now posing as the latest victim of the
old and threadbare gold BRICK scheme,
by which ne was singed to the extent of
$4,000. The confding gentleman went
to Macon in response to letter advs-
ing him of the aforesaid good thing, -
and there was shown three gold bars
by plausible stranger, Each bar was cut
into, and as the dust proved to be pure
gold the price demanded for the bonan-
"a, $500, was paid over without hesita-
ton. 1t was the old story, the ''gold
brick" proving to be brass of interior
quality, and now the confding victim is
trying in vain to keep the story from his
friends.
The victim of the swindle was Phil
Jackson, one of the wealthiest men of
Sumter county.

NOTES ABOUT OUR NEIGHBORs.

aaron Freeman, COlOred; while on his
way home Friday night. was shot by
some unknown persons SecTeted in a
ditch on Miss Julia Catching's place six
miles southeast of Georgetown. He is
still living and the wound may not
prove fatal. He knows who the parties
are who attempted to assassiuate him,
and warrants have been issued for their
arrest. The shooting was done with a
shotgun at close range, he having receiv-
ed the entire load of bird shot in his
side. He went some distance from the
place where he was shot and fell in a
corn patch near his house, where he was
found.
Judge Tompkins, while on his way
home from Richland, was attacked by a
swarm of bees that were out looking for
a location. They took fancy to the
judges broad brimmed hat and decided
to take charge of it. The Judge, in try
ing to defend himself, iDsulted the bees
and they attacked bis horse. The horse
decided the judge was keeping bad com
pany and made a break for the swan }.
After inspecting ten or fifteen acres of
one of his neighbours crops the Judge
succeeded in checking his horse and pro-
ceeded on his way home. When the
horse made the break the judge lost his
hat, and it is supposed the bees took
possession. If any one should find n
hat with a begun in it notify the
Judge.
