Columbia. March 5.-(Special. 1.-The weather conditions of this section have been most peculiar for the past few days Last Thursday it rained all day and just after dark a terrific down pour with a severe wind storm occurred Just west of this place, which did considera- ble damage to plantations and turpentine timber.

TIRED AND WORN OUT.

The complicated female organism is so delicately adjusted as to be easily fhrown out of balance. As . result, health and strength are affected by divers diseases, women's peculiar inheritance. Motherhood, family, society. all levy such drains upon her strength that most wo- mep break under the nervous tension. Tho demands upon her nervous strength are much greater than similar demands of the opposite sex. Hence she must be supplied in greater measure with the ele- ment--iron, that gives strength. The reason women feel tired and worn out and suffer from headache, pains in the back and limbs, etc, is because they have used up their supply of iron. Menstrua.. tion trouble is largely caused by lack of iron. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic supplies this element. It enriches the blood and restores what strain has used up.
 Augusta, Ark, May 10. 1901.
 "After having sold Dr. Harter's reme- dies for thirty years can cheerfuily recommend them. I might add that I hold in especial favor Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. and would recommend 1t as the very best preparation of iron I am ac- quainted with. To weak, worn-out wc- men, and those troubled with nervous ness, poor digestion, and pale, thin oiooo' I believe it to be a panacea."

 A steel ceiling for the city hall Is be- ing, considered. Some time ago the plas- tering became unsafe and was removed. This ceiling, which will cost between sSOo and $500 will greatly beautify the hall There has been some talk from members of the Board, to remodel the hall and turn 1t into an opera house. If this is done the two rooms In the front of the building will be turned into the main hall. and the gallery will serve admirably for the same purpose. There are two large stair cases. one in either end of the building. A flight of stairs placed between the city market and the hall could be used by the negroes to reach the left side of the gallery. without coming in contact with the whites If the above plan is carried out 1t will make an ideal auditorium.
