Saved From Terrible Death.

The family of Mrs. NJ. L. Babbitt of
Bargerton, Tenn. saw her dying and
were powerless to save her. The most
skillful PHYSICIANS and every remedy
used failed, while consumption was
slowly but surely taking her life. In
this terrible hour DR.. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption turned des-
pair into joy. The first bottle brought
immediate relief and its continued
use completely cured her. It's the
most certain cure in the world for all
throat and lung troubles. Guaranteed

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh Of the
Stomach.

For many years 1t has been supposed that
Catarrh Of the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth Is exactly tho
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re-
peated attacks of indigestion inflames tho
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus-
Ing the glands to secrete mucin instead Of
tho juices of natural digestion. This IL
called Catarrh of the Stomach.

Heavy the clouds and dreary the day
One like we used to have long ago;
Chilly and cold and bleak and gray,
But Polly and l, on our homeward way,
Care not at ali for the binding snow.
Streets are deserted, save here and there
Red-nosed pedestrians vending their way
Over the sleet-covered payements where
An il-chosen step means trip through air
And heavy fall on this winters day.
Snugly ensconced in a woolen wrap
Hands in muff and her face agiow,
Polly is thinking of me, mayhap.
And I-well, from under my heavy cap
Pm dreaming of her, for love her so.
Only we two, yet happier pair
Couldn't be found over land or sea,
For love Polly, so sweet and fair,
And no cause have for single care,
= For Polly-she tod me so-loves me!

Some Senate Measures.

So far the senate has had compare
lively little business to transact on
it's own motion this session, most OF
the bills having come over from last
year. Much important legislation has,
however, been suggested, and is now
before committees or has been acted
on by them. :. ..'-. '..
Several bills have been, introduced
looking to a different division Of the
profits Of the dispensary in resect to
the schools, but these bills have not
generally received much support,
whatever merit may be in them. There
is. therefore, not what might be called
a live issue before the senate in regard
to dispensary legislation. ....
A bill which is sure to create much
debate is that to allow towns to vote
to close dispensaries. Some senators
are in favor Of giving counties local
option, and when the matter comes up
for consideration this feature of the
dispensary reform will receive consid-
erable support. There have been bills
introduced in reerence to special
courts. but nothing yet has been done
about them.
Among legislation proposed as to
railroads the bill requiring railroads to
carry 200 pounds of baggage free has
been passed. There is one now before
the senate which would require the
passenger fare to be IL cents mile
instead of 3 cents. There is still an
other which would require railroads to
run sidetracks to- accommodate indus
trial enterprises.
There is a bill relative TO the prac'
tice of medicine in this state which
contains many important provisions
This bill or something similar has
been before the Legislature for several
years. It is no doubt quite important
but it seems to De one which doctors
want to fight out to settle their difer'
ences, and nearly every session wit
nesses long debates and long commit
tee hearings.
There is a bill to increase the sala'
ries of members Of the supreme court
It has been before the senate before
but received favorable report this
time. .....'.... ....
The bill to require railroads to carry
baby carriages as baggage passed the
senate and will become a law on the
governors signature.
The senate also passed Senator
Johnson's bill to prevent strikes and
lockouts. It has already been REJECT
ed by the house, but Mr.. Johnson
wants them to have another consider
alton of it. The senate adopted the
bill last session by a small vote, 6u|
allowed it to go through this year, al
ter defeat in the house, without De
bate.

The house at Fridays session trans
acted considerable business. The body
concurred, by passing to a third read

bill, relative to examinations OF medi-
cal students. This measure, it seems,
has met with the concurrence OF tkej

c;liated all Others as being the best

was opposed by the cotton mill inter,
ests as being an incentive to useless
litigation. The bill providing for an
increase of the scholarships at Wiz
throp College to 500 each was given
its final reading. The Kibler bill, pro-
yiding for the creation of an insurance
department, with an insurance com.
missioner at a salary Of 81, 800, and thes

ton of that work, received its final

The house Saturday accomplished,
so far as the passage of bills was con-
cerned, more than it had on any pre-
vious day of the session. More than
forty bills were ordered to their third
reading. Most of these measures are
of what is technically known as Of 10
cal character. That is, they refer to
the bonding of towns or cities for the
purpose of erecting school buildings.
jails or poor houses, to the increase
of county officers salaries, to. the pur-
chase of index cases, and the like, by
county authorities, and all such things
of a. more or less local character. Out
of all of the forty bills passed, not
more than over three or four are OF
general nature. The, most signif can't
action was the defeat by an over,
whe,ming vote Of the second bill pro-
posed by the tax commission. This bill,
known as No 1902, provided for the
creation of new board Of assessors.
One Of the important bills to Charles
ton that passed was one relating to
framen's pension funds.
