That Ten Dollar Note.

To the Editor Of the Nelcs and Cou-
riey:: In recent issue Of your paper
Eureka solved the problem which
appeared in your columns, and which
is as follows
Here's mathematical problem which
the Boston Post observer heard bank
messenger putting to man of figures
the other day: "a banker found $40 bill.
At home he gave it to his wife, who paid
the butcher in settlement of his account.
Tho butcher paid it to the farmer for a
calf, and the farmer paid it to the mer-
chant, who in turn paid it to the washer
woman, and she. owing the banker note
of $40, went to the banker and paid the
note. The banker recognized the bill as
the one he had found and which up to
that time had paid $50 worth of debt. On
a careful examination he found the bill
was counterfeit OF course the problem
is, Who lost in the transaction ?"
''Eureka's' solution states that 'it
is not difficult to see that the banker
lost, losing the $40 note owed him by
the washerwoman. 1t seems to me
that Eureka" is a little hasty in
solving the problem in this way, as
the banker did not lose the $40 note
owed him by the washerwoman. Had
he paid the butcher good $40 note,
and received from the washerwoman a
spurious one. then would he have been
out of pocket $40. This particular
bill had been found by the banker,
and prior to the transaction with the
washerwoman; it had not been paid to
him as a legal tender therefore it
seems to me that neither he nor any
one else concerned could have lost
anything: the only loser, if any, be-
ing the party who had originally lost
the counterfeit bill, which the banker
found. All Of these people owed
each other precisely the same amount
Of money, and as it was returned to
the one who had first paid it out, and
as he had in the 6rst place found the
$40 note, each Of these people had
paid each other in good faith, and l
think that if they had gotten together
and given each other receipts for the
money, it would have amounted to the
same thing. Had the money been
paid to someone else than the banker,
after passing through all these hands,
then would that last party have been
at loss, but as it returned to the one
who had found it, after paying $50
worth of debt, the banker did not lose
anything, neither did he gain, as in
the first instance he had paid the
counterfeit money himself.
Will you kindly let us know through
the columns Of your paper who is in
the right, as it is an interesting
problem Z? l.. NJ. b.

burden.
[ have endeavored. after study OF
the State affairs, to make such
recommendations to you as may seem
proper and just. The Governor can
not make laws-to you alone is en-

bettering the conditions Of our lnstl-
tutions and for reducing taxes. MY
recommendations are merely advisory;
the responsibility for the passage or
defeat of bills, introduced or recon-
mended, lies with you. 1t is my de-
sire to cooperate during the coming
season, as during the past, with your
respective bodies and members in the
interest of the taxpayers and OF our
people generally;vin that behalf l will
at all times be pleased to consult with
committees or with individual mem
bers. The responsibility for the de-
feat of any good measure for whatever
reason shall not rest on the Executive
nor shall I allow myself to be inHu-
enced in any Of my actions by intima-
tions that my measures may be de-
feated. Personal preference or desire
shall not be INDUCED by me in the
proposal Of any measure. If they be
found not subservient to the public
interests, my suggestions should be
ignored; if in that interest their de-
feat will harm not the Executive but
only the people.

Bright,s Disease.

This is often classed among the
diseases of modern life," and prob
ably it really is Of more common oc-
currence now than it was in the early
years Of our century, when railways
and steamships and telegraphs were
not, for it is the rush and the worry
Of life, which these things typify and
aid, that predispose powerfully to the
disease.
The term Bright's disease is loosely
applied to any chronic, or even acute,
disease Of the kidneys, but we usually
mean, when speaking Of it, very
slow hardening and shrinkage Of the
kidneys, whereby these organs are
rendered incapable Of performing their
important function.
The kidneys are two in number, and
lie one on each side Of the spinal col
umn, extending from about the level OF
the last rib downward for four or FIVE
inches. Their Office is to separate
some Of the waste materials from the
blood, and to provide for their removal
from the body dissolved in water The
substances so got rid Of are, many of
them, exceedingly poisonous, and it
is to their retention in the system that
most of the danger of kidney disease
is due.
The symptoms Of Bright's disease
in its early stages are very slight, and
such as they are, are often mistaken
for the signs Of simple indigestion
but much more frequently symptoms
of indigestion, slight rheumatic pains
in the loins and other minor ills are
regarded by nervous people as indica-
tive Of kidney diseases. Almost every
body suffers at times from more or
less backache, headache, dizziness, in
digestion, perhaps blurring of the
eyes, and even little swelling of the
feet toward evening, but very few
such persons have any trouble with
the kidneys.
A man who suffers persistently from
these symptoms would be wise to con
suit a physician but he would be
very foolish to make his own diagnosis
from such insufficient data, and then
worry himself into an illness Even
physician cannot make a positive
diagnosis of Bright's disease without
thorough chemical and microscopical
examination.
The treatment of Brights disease
belongs entirely to the physician. The
malady is n serious one, and any at
tempt of the patient himself to treat
it with patent medicines or dccoctions
of his own is little less than suicide.

| desire to impress upon the mem
bers of the General Assembly the ne
cessity for the strictest economy in
the appropriation of public moneys.
While unnecessary and excessive APP
pro sriations Of public money should
b. avoided at all times. and the strict
est economy consistent with good ad-
,ninistration in every branch OF the
public service should be at all times
enforced, there is at this time special
reason why this principle should be
carefully applied. The people have
endured long period Of business de-
preston, but the present low price OF
cotton, our principal money crop, has
caused still greater depression, and
the mercantile and industrial inactivi-
ty is kccnly felt by all classes. AS
guardians of the public interests and
custodians Of the public funds the
paramount question at this iuncturc,
when considering the appropriation OF
the peoples money, should be: Can
this expenditure be deferred without
injury to the public interests, until
business shall have resumed its nor
NAL activity? On account of low
prices and the scarcity of money tho

than usual severity upon the people,

prohibiting provisions we're intro
duoed into the Constitution. 1t is
natural and may be praiscworthy for
individual legislators to seek to ad-
vance the interests Of their localities
and constituencies: but such inter
ests should be subordinated to the
general public good, and such special
and local legislation is evidently in
furious to the public veal. Too much
legislation, both general and special,
has undoubtedly characterized South
Carolina for the past thirty years.
Such special and local enactments,
besides being species Of class lcgis-
lation, are most harmful in making it
uncertain what the Statute law is. 1t
is, therefore, Mise provision of our
present Constitution, which prohibits
local and special legislation, aud it
should be rigidly enforced. But not

evsded, and that there was coasidera-

the Supreme Court to be unconstitu-

that it was local and special legisla-
