Hints On the Road Question.


To the Editor of the Dispatch:
As Mr.. Craps thinks we have but
little road law and Mr.. P. J. Rucker
thinks we ought not to have what we
already have, how would a law en-
boding the following answer the
purpose: I think its unjust for any
one to pay out. For the well to-do
can pay and the poor can't, therefore
they have to do their own work and
that of the well-to-do also. I would
like to know what becomes of the
money after it's paid. How do they
expect the overseers to keep up the
roads without hands or money. For
instance, if all paid up except three
or four, how could they keep up the
roads.
Now, MIR. Editor, if this proposition
is wrong I would be pleased for some
one to correct it. A. B. Quattlebaum.

OIL for the
Children
Give them oil-cod-liver oil.

Give them oil-cod-liver oil.
It's curious to see the result.
Give it to the peevish, fret
ful child, and he laughs. Give
it to the pale, anacmic child,
and his face becomes rosy and
full of health. Take a flat
chested child, or a child that
has stopped growing, give him
the oil, and he will grow big
and strong like the rest.
This is not a new scheme.
It has been done for years.
Of course you must use the
right oil. SCOTS Emulsion
is the one.
SCOTS Emulsion neither
looks nor tastes like oil because
we are so careful in making it
pleasant to take.

The Three Meal Habit.

Our three meal habit is q fearful
tax on our working capacity. 1t trebles
the temptation to overeating. Our
champions stagger under the weight of
a physiological handicap. One-half of
the functional energy Of the system is
diverted by the exigencies Of digestion.
No other hygienic mistake has done so
much to make us a generation Of dys-
peptics as the custom of after dinner
work. Its victims. moreover, incur the
risk Of contra citing that form Of moral
dyspepsia called pessimism. 1t tends
to rob the working day Of its reward.
Success.

Some few weeks ago the managers
of the State Agricultural and Me
chanical Association gave ont the in
formation that the State fair, if hello
at all, would this year go to that town
making the highest bid for it. The
reason assigned for this determine
ton on the part of the fair people
was the indifference of the Columbis
people toward the fair and its non
support of it. It is contended that
should the fair be moved away from
Columbia the buildings and grounds
would revert to the city and would
in turn be turned over to an associa
tion of business men of the city for the
purpose of organizing fair associa
tion "to give their own exhibitions
and change the style of the entertain
ment from year to year" That fair
will be pulled off in Columbia this
year is almost foregone certainty,
but whether under the auspices of
the State Agricultural and Mechani-
cal Association or the Columbia Fair
Association has not been definitely
determined at this time,

In so far as new Developments ana
exciting incidents were concerned the
Manning meeting last Friday did not
come up to the expectations of the
people who had looked forward to it
with much interest and expected a
cred hot" time. Evidently Senator
Tillman thought that he would have
no use for his pitchfork in handling
the Senator from Clarendon and so
left that formidable weapon in the
United States Senate at Washington
for immediate use on his return.
Senator Tillman faced his accuser
and listened with marked attention to
the rehash of the old charges brought
against him by Senator Applet.
The charges by which he was con-
fronted are so old that they have long
since become chestnutty. With the
exception of the Senior Senator s ref
erence to his colleague as being "a
traitor to his party" and his sug-
gestions concerning the manner in
which the State primary should be
conducted and the nature of the
oath to be taken by the candidates.
the affair was a very tame one. Re
garding his proposition for two cam
paigns, We think that the candidates
themselves are settling this question
to their own satisfaction By adopting
the ''still hunt" system of canvass
ing for votes. They have long since
recognized the impossibility of max
ing an effective campaign by depend
ing entirely upon the meetings ar
ranged by the State Democratic Ez
ecutive Committee even should tive
sets of meetings be provided and
are ''toting their own skillets" and
''hoeing their own row."

Echoes from the Pen Of Billy
Felix.

10 the Editor OF tne OlspaCcD:
Everything is quiet along the line
save now and then a stray shot
from some of our expectant candi-
dates in the political field.
We are having fine, delightful
spriag weather.
Cotton is coming up, corn is green
and growing, wheat and spring oats
are looking hopeful and gardens
tempting to the appetite.
We are panied to learn of the ILL.,
ness of our fellow townsman and
friend, Mr.. G S. Goodwin. We hope,
under the skillful treatment of that
experienced physician, DR.. Rufus
Neece, of Pelion, that he may soon
recover and be out about his busi-
ness.
The Sunday school at CASTOR has
revived after alternating and bids
fair to do good work the coming
year.
The work on the farms are pro-
crossing finely and present indica
ticns til fair for a good crop. In
my recent travels over some parts of
dear old Lexington, I noticed more
acreage being planted in corn and
less in cotton. If our cotton planters
had all followed the example OF one
of our farmers it would have been
better for US ALL Last year he
bought fifty sacks of guano, this
year he purchased five.
The young people are very con-
spicuous these beautiful, pleasant
Sunday afternoons. Probably the
orange blossoms will bloom Xmas
times.
Mrs. W. B. Fallaw spent some
time recently with relatives and
friends in the Wagener neighbor-
hood.
Agents representing different firms
and corporations have been almost as
numerous of late as me think the
prospecting candidate will be this
summer. Billy shall be pleased to
see them, as he has purchased several
new hoes and will hold them in readi-
ness for the coming candidate to try
his hand, as the majority Of them
claim to be farmers.
We regret very much to learn of
the death of Mrs. Mary Oxner. The
writer has known her for some time
and has always found her to be
true loyal Christian lady. She pos
sessed traits of character that go to
make up a true lady. She was a
consecrated member of the Baptist
church, always faithful to duty,
taught in the schools of Lexington
county always giving entire satisfac-
tion. Being in the very bloom of
health, we thought her stay on earth
long one, but God decided other
wise. To the young husband and
the parents, sisters and brothers we
extend our deep sympathy in this
trying hour of bereavement. And
we commend them to "a loving Saviour,
who alone can comfort in such trying
time. May they trust in Jesus and
prepare to meet their dear sainted one
in glory.
