serious Charges of Violation of
Rules.

To His Honor Judge R. 0. Purdy,
Is Presiding Judge Of the July Term
of the Court Of General Sessions and
Common Pleas for Sumter county.
We, your grand jury, beg to present
this our second presentment Tor 1910:
We have passed upon and returned
all bills given to Us by the Sol!cltor.
We have, through ouI committees,
visited the county Offices, jail and
county dispensarv, and End the Conn-
ty Treasurer. Auditor. Clerk of the
Court. CLERK of the Board OF
Comfy Commissioners and Superln-
tendept of Education in the midst o.
their settlements and therefore their
books could not be definitely examined:
We find the dispensary conducted
well and in business-like manner,ex
cept that the law in reference to re-
quests is not carried out, lnas1nuch as
purchasers are not required to sign re-
quest blanks in the purchase 0. hquoIs.
We therefore recommend toa5 tne
provision of the law be strictly enforc-
ed.
We find that our recommendation
ritb reference to suitable bedding Tor
prisoners in the county jail has not
been carried out.
We will further say that information
has reached Us, which led tosan exami- :
nation. the result of which wa ind
that visitors have been allowed to en-
ter the Jail at any time OF the day or
night without the proper permit from
the Sheriff OF his deputy x
and that wbiskey has been used exten-
sively by some prisoners and Jalier to-
pether, all Of which has been done
with the full knowledge and consent
of the Jailer..
Ne therefore recommend that suit
able Jailer-pe placed in charge OF the
prison at once who would rigidly en-
force the rnles, and the Sheriff be
REQUIRED to keep the strictest vigilance
over the Institution.
Our attention has been called to the
bad state of the roads in the remote
sections of the county. We therefore
recommend that the County Board OF
Commissioners devise some plan to
compel or compensate suitable over
seers to attend TO such roads.
We desire to thank His Honor Judge
Purdy, the Solicitor and all court
officials for the many courtes'es ex-
tended. Respectfully submitted.

PROBLEM THAT WON'T DOWN
Reliable Servants for Domestic Ser
vice Difficult to Find.

The servant question continues to
be serious problem in Sumter, many
families finding it difficult to secure
cooks or house servants. The time
was when there was little trouble in
securing reliable servants, but that
day is fast passing away. Now it is
a hard matter to secure cooks that will
remain at a place longer than a week
or more.
A we'll known citizen said today
that the time was fast approaching
when the people Of Sumter would
do away with colored servants alto
gether unless they showed marked
Improvement in the near future. He
ventured the opinion that the day was
not far distant when reliable class OF
white servants would be employed in
many Sumter homes and that servant
quarters would be provided on the
premises. During the past few days
he said he had heard number Of we'll
known citizens discussing the servant
problem and the difficulties they were
having at their homes. Each one Of
these gensemen, he said, declared
that they prpposed to engage white
servants just as soon as they could
possibly do so.
Sumter is not the only city in South
Carolina that is having trouble with
servants. Complaints from every
large city in the state about the infe-
rior servant class is being heard. Tn
less the colored women show a mark
ed Improvement within a short time
the probabilities are that many will be
replaced by white servants.
Of course there are some very faith
full servants and good ones too. The
family that has one Of this class is
most fortunate. There are some
cooks who have been serving steadily
for one family for a number of years.
Their services are appreciated and
they are spoken Of in a complimentary
manner by their employers.

There is more Catarrh In this sec
ton Of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. Fer a great many years doc
tors pronounced it a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced It incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease and
herefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10

Exjles from Home.

Every year sees thousands of pale and
emaciated people leaving their homes
for the benefit a change of climate af-
fOrds them. A large number of thes=
poor sufferers who are thus exiled from
home are affected with throat or lung
trouble, asthma, bronchitis or con-
sumption, which can invariably be
traced back to a severe cold. No one
would neglect cold could he foresee
such termination. To go to a warm
err climate for ones health is expensive
and seldom altogether satisfactory

Cough Remedy will save all this ex-
pense and worry. This remedy If
widely known for its prompt cures Of
coughs and colds and thousands have
testified to the permanent relief they
have received by its use. For sale by
