Deafness Canrc: be Cured.

BY local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion Of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
Deafness, and that is by .constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infiamed condition OF the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachlan Tube.
When this tube gets intlaned you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be dos
troyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition Of
the mucousurs. faces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case Of Deafness (causcd
by catarrh) that cannot be cured BY
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars, free.

From Broad River.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
The long drought was broken by
refreshing rains last Friday. Cotton
is improving, having held a good
color during the dry weather. Old
corn is not good, but has improved
since the rains and if favorable
weather lasts, will make q much
better crop than was thought some
time ago.
Fruit is almost entirely a failure
this year; only few pears make up
the crop.
The earlier planting corn and cot
ton has been laid by, and fishing
seems to be the order If the day
with many Just low. Crowds cf
people are seen going to and coming
from Broad river almost daily.
This is month for picnics, and
doubtless many will take advantage
of the opportunity to attend some of
the nearer ones.
The 4th of July celebration, which
was held in the grove near Mr.. j. E..
Ha'tiwanger's, was we'll attended
and everybody had pleasant time.
The forenoon was taken up by
patriotic music and orations, while
the afternoon was spent in social
intercourse. This is a day we'll de-
serving of celebration by all lovers cf
liberty who cherish those noble senti-
ments and actions upon which our
nation was originally founded.
The health of this com munity is as
a whole, good. Miss Matte Wyse is
still in bed. She is being attended
by Drs. Eargle and E!eazer, Of
Spring Hill.

Lexington, S. c., July Il, 1899.
Teachers and Friends of Education:
1t is with much pleasure that I
announce to you the opening Of our
County Summer School, for white
teachers, on the Oh of August.
This school will be under the man
agement Of Prof. W. X. Sigh, of
Newberry College, assisted by Mr..
James P. Bean, of Johnston, S. c.,
and will continue one month, 4 weeks.
A sufficient amount of funds has
been appropriated by the State to
run these schools, for the special
benefit of our public school teachers:
the aim being to raise the standard
CT the profession, ard this We hope
will be accomplished.
By a ruling of the State Board,
County Boards are prohibited from
renewing the certificates of qaalifca-
,ions of teachers who will not attend
these Summer Schools" and we
wish to emphasize the fac, that it is
the aim of our County Board to
carry out this ruling and require
ment Of the State Board.
Let all cf cur white teachers begin
at once to arrange to attend this
school at Lexington in August, and
prepare for more effectual and sub
stantial work in the respective fields
of labor in the htuYe.
The good people of Lexington
have already iatimatea to me their
willingness and desire to entertain
those who may attend the Summer
School, and we believe will ctter
board at actual cost.
Ii any of those expecting to at
tend the school, desire further infUr-
nation shall be pleased to serve
them to the best of my ability.
Very Respectfully,
}. K r k!zer,

Mr.. VIM. G. Lowering, a leading
New England Cotton manufacturer
says:
The Roundlap bale of the American
Cotton Company continues to win
favor with the manufacturers cf New
England, as well as with the spinners
of Europe. You can readily under
stand why this should be so, in view
of the saving, and of the fact that
after making very thorough inves-
tiga!ion in one of my mills last sum-
mer I found that the average break
ing strain of yarn spun from this
bale is about Is per cent. greater
than the strength Of the yarn spun
from the cd bale"
