Writes of a Reported Violation of the
Consti ution.

Writes of a Reported Violation of the
Consti, ution,
To County Supervisors:
article 5, Sec 3, of the Coustitu
ton Ia as follows: The proceeds of
the State and county c~apI6ation tax
shall be applied to the purposes of edu
cation and.the support of the poor, but
in no year shall more than twenty
five per cent. thereof be appropriated
to the latter purpose
1t matters not what revenue acts we
may have on this subject, the Constitu.
ton is the supreme law and must be
obeyed.
Tine poll tax of course varies in the
diff rent counties, but I am informed
that il has been the custom in some
places to take % per cent. of 50. or so
cents, without regard to wha5 the poll
actually is, OF in other words, where
the poll is only $3.50 so cents of this
mas been taken from che school fund,
where there should have been taken
only % per cent g., or one fourth of 81 80,
or As cents
"Ehe point I wish to emphasize is
this, that no matter what the poll tax
Of your county may or may not be, IS
per cent. of whatever it is belongs to
the public school fund.
1T is very strange that the school
fund seems to be 40 often misused, and
50 little concern taken for this fund in
comparison with other public funds.
II have no objection to the county
commissioners caring for the poor, but
let them take only % per cent. of the
poll tax as the Constitution directs for
this purpose.
Il believe we would have te yer peo-
pie Ia our county homes if we had
more intelligence, so one way for the
commissioners I'd lessen the public
burden of the poor is to increase Fhe
intelligence of their people.
II beg you to look into this matter
in your county and see that tie school
fund has it's legal portion of the poll
tax, SIS well as the other taxes"

Have You Tried Swamp ROOT?
This Eminent Physicians Great Discovery Promptly
Cures all Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid Troubles.
To Prove it's Wonderful Merits Every Progress
sive Farmer Reader May Have q Sam
pie Bottle Sent Free By Mail.

1t is now conceded by eminent sci
entists that the most important organs
of the whole body are the kidneys.
They filter your blood and work
away night and day, whether you
sleep or are awake.
People are apt to believe thai kid
ney disease is q rather rare disease,
but recent discoveries have proven
that it Is a more common trouble.
And the proof of this is that most
diseases, perhaps SIS per cent, are
caused in the beginning by disorders
of the XII ipeys.
BECAUSE they fail to filter your
blood.
You cannot be sick if your blood is
pure-free from kidney poison and
disease breeding germs
The treatment of some diseases may
! be DELAYED without danger, not so wlEn
! kidney disease.
When your kidneys are not doing
! their work it will be manifested by
pain or dull aches in the back. rheu
matte pains, sciatica, sediment In the
urine, scanty supply, scalding irrita-
ton in passing it, obliged to go often
during the day and to get up during
the night, uric ecid, sleeplessness, irri-
liability, sallow, unhealthy complexion,
puffy or dark circles under the eyes,
less of energy or ambition.
If your water when allowed to re
main undisturbed for twenty-four
hours forms a sediment or settling or
has a cloudy appearance, it is evidence
that your kidneys and bladder need
immediate attention.
Swamp Root is a vegetable remedy,
the great discovery of DR.. Klmer (Che
eminent kidney and bladder specials }
and has truly wonderful restorative
powers over the kidneys. 1t will be
| found by both men and women just
what is needed in all cases Of kidney,
liver, bladder and uric acid troubles.
Swamp R lot will set your whole
system right,
The beet proof OF this is a trial, and
| nothing could be fairer than the Cffar
20 send a sample bottle of this great
remedy ard a book telling all about it,

One Of the Chatterers asks for a
motto far the New Year and a sugges
ton for New Years resolutions. As
to this 1 endorse the following from
Edward Box:
The characters Of those resolves
should emauate from ones own heart,
and not b. suggested by another. Yet
an excellent resolution for a young
man to make is this triangular one:
Be Industrious, shun all Intoxicating
liquors, and put into a good savings
bank at least fifteen cents Of every dol
lar earned during the year."
Now for a motto, I do not recall any
thing especially appropriate, but If l
we're asked to select three verses for
each reader of Social Chat to keep in
mind during the year | should select
from the BiOls:
Abstain from all appearance Of
evil"
F-om Goethe:
Like the star
That shInes afar,
Without haste
And without rest
Let each man wheel with steady sway
'R.und the task tnaG rules the day,
Aud 90 his besE!"
From Henry Timrod:
TO days most trivial act may hold the
seed
0 future fruittuIoes or future dearth."
lean suggest no better New Years
resolution thaa an earnest resolve to
live up to the ieachings OF these three
verses.
B3fOre closing my letter, I wish say
that l hop5 u0ne o. cur circle will
quote or copy from other writers
Without giving proper credit. I desire
original letters, and prefer fresh IN
