The Wastes Of the Body.

Every seven days the blood, mus
cles and bones of q man of average
size loses two pounds of wornout
tissue. This waste cannot be replen-
ished and the health and strength
kept up without perfect digestion.
When the stomach and digestive
organs fail to perform their functions,
the strength lets down, health gives
way, and disease sets up. Kodol Dys-
pepsia Cure enables the stomach and
digestive organs to digest and assim-
ilate all of the wholesome food that
may be eaten into the kind of blood
that rebuilds the tissues and protects
the health and strength of the mind
and body. Kodol cures Indigestion,
Dyspepsia and all stomach troubles.

Through the kindness of President
Haynes, of the Leesville College,
Lewiedale enjoyed a rare treat on
last Saturday night in the form of a
lecture by DR. Eugene May, of Wash
ington, D. c. It was the finest
thing this writer ever heard. His
subject was: "Come up smiling"
While this has been our motto even
from mothers knee, We confess we
had never seoa the great truth Of
this philosophy 80 we'll illustrated.
It was grand, ernobEipg and inspir-
ing.
All the harm we wish him is q
hasty return to US with another one
of his fine lectures.
On the account of bad weather
ard misunderstanding about the
lecture the audience was not as
large as it would have been.
Mr.. Williams, the tobacco man of
the Boiling Springs neighborhood,
was in town recently.
Misses Maude and Victoria Cros-
SOD, of Leesville, took in the lecture
here last Saturday night and also
MIR. Paul Minis and others.
Mr.. James Jefcoat has had the sad
experience of losing another one of
his children. May he realize that
the 'severlasting arms" are beneath
him to hold him up.
Mrs. Jacob S. K5zer is visiting
her son at Newberry.
Some of the old G. VS., from our
section are taking in the reunion at
Columbia.
We are sorry to hear of the death
of Mr.. Jesse Drafts. He was an old
school mate of ours and We learned
to love him.
We were glad to see Prof. Derrick
in our town Saturday. Bought him
a new buggy. Something must be
doing.
No more marriages at present.
Called off until fail, I guess.

National Aid for Public High.
ways.

When Col. W. P. Brownlow, of
Tennessee, asked Congress to appro.
pirate S2O,OOO,00O for National aid
to road improvement in the United
States, the economists were shocked
at the mere suggestion of so lavish
an expenditure on such account.
The amount provided for in the
Brownlow bill, however, was ridicul-
ously small in comparison with the
immense territory in which it was to
be distributed.
We are told that the New York
Legislature has adopted a constitu-
tional amendment providing for a
road tax of S5,000,OO0 year for ten
years, S50,000,000 in all. This
amendment will doubtless be ratified
by the people of the State. The
Legislatures in the States of Alabama,
Tennessee, Wisconsin, New Mexico,
Missouri and Minnesota have all de-
clared in favor of National aid for
road improvement, and soon or late
both States and Nation will unite in
a policy which will result in the i'm
provement of all the highways of the
country, and to the great advantage
of her industrial life.
It is said that lone of the objec-
tions most loudly urged against both
State and National aid is that it will
encourage local communities to ne
glect the improvement of their roads,
and depend on the State and Federal
Governments to do the work for them. y
The objection has very little behind
it, as it would not be practicable to
increase the "neglect' with which
''local communities" have heretofore
and always regarded theimprovement
of their roads. The efJrts which

ucts, and for the public welfare, was
entitled to appeal to its own courts
to enjoin such violations of the law.
