SCARED EY A SHADOW.

People living in other sections OF
the country are amazed at the terrific
scare which the yellow fever has caus-
ed in the south, and in view of the fact
that the fever is Of an extremely mild
type and not near so fatal as typhoid
fever or dIptheria, they cannot under
stand why there should be such panic
and so many brutal shotgun quaran-
tines. The Chicago Chronicle, for in
stance, very truly says:
"TraditiOnal dread OF yellow fever,
rather than the mortality caused by
that disease, appears to be response
BILE for the panic stricken condition of
the gulf states. The death rate is on
~ per cent, and the total deaths to
date are fewer IN number than those
caused in tile same period by dipthe,
ria, Tor example, in the city of Chicago
alone. Yet no one in Chicago talks of
establishing shotgun quarantine,
though diptheria is fully as infectious
and as fatal as yellow fever. The
truth is that the people of the fe-
yer districts are frightened by the rec
objection of past epidemics rather than
the ravages of the present one. They
are being terrorized by a shadow which
VIII vanish as soon as they confront it
boldly"

An Interesting Oispensary Debate. Resi-
dences in Demand. Other Matters.
| PARRoTT. Oct. 24.-We had two most
eloquent and convinc cling speeches on
Friday night by Revs. tombstone and
Carpenter of Dawson on the dispensary
question. Both speeches were just what
might have been expected from two such
noble christian gentlemen. They spoke
in perfect fairness to the other side, US
ing not an expression that could possibly
give offence, yet fOrcibly pOrtraying the
vast evil influences excl ciSed by the open
saloon and the inestimable benefits to
accrue by throwing the restrictions of
the dispensary system around it. Mr..
Parrott spoke for the other side, and
made as ab defense as could haYe been
made. We congratulate him on his eff
fort and his pluck, for we confess that
we would have hesitated a good while
before tackling two such preachers on
any issue they might make. Uncle
John is a true old confederate soldier,
and you know they are noted all over
the world for grit. We feel sure that
the debate did good here, and that the
people will vote on the question more
intelligently. From what we can gather
the dispensaTy men have he right If way
throughout this section.
Farrott needs more residences. Ap-
plicatiOns for a dozen houses by parties

THIS rs TaE TRUTH.

After quoting some significantly OPP
perfume authorities at home and abroad
the Atlanta Commercial hits the nail
on the head thus:
1.-The demand for cotton in Lancas-
ter regulates its price in Liverpool.
The price in Liverpool determines
its price in New York, and New York
in Atlanta. The demand in Lancaster
is regulated by the demand in the mark
cts Of the world tor the manufactured
fabrics. When this demand is curtail-
ed the demand for cotton is cut, and
consequently the price. 1t is not the
prospect of heavy crop of cotton in

ONE OF TWO WAYS

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, receptacle for the urine,
and us such it is not liable to any form Of
disease except by one of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action of the
kidneys. The second way is from care
less local treatment of other diseases.

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder trouba
les. SO the womb, like the bladder, was
created Cor Lne purpose, and if not doc
tored to much is not liable to weakness
or disease. except in rare cases. 1t is
situated back of and very close to the
bladder, therefore any pam, disease or
inconvenience manifested in the kidneys,
back, bladder or urinary passage is often,
by mistake, attributed to female weak
ness or womb trouble of some sort. The
error is easily made and may be as east
ly avoided, To find out correctly set
your urine aside for twenty-four hours ;
