After having lived in Man.

away for four years, and then

not heip being very much i'm
pressed with the growth and
improvement visible in the
town. There has never been a
boom in Manning, bat just a
good, steady, healthy improve
ment along every line. New
stores, new residences new
public buildings and new en-
terprises are visible on every
side.
The new public buildings are
the pride of the town, and they
are enough to make a citizen of
many towns twice the size Of
Manning proud Of their imposing
appearance.
The writer hadthe pleasure of
going through the new court
house while in Manning recent

completed, he could not but
marvel at the nicely of arrange

officials. The building is ll6

with Indiana stone, while the
steps are solid granite. There
are IL rooms on the first floor
to be used by the county officials,

ante rooms and jury rooms are
on the second floor. The build.
ing is trimmed with South Ca.

oak. When completed this hand

Clarendon county has a court
house of which it can justly feel
proud.
The other public building just
completed is the graded school

enjoy going to school in such a
comfortable and conveniently
arranged institution of learning.
At a cost of $4,000 the tax
payers of Manning school dis

STATE LABOR COMMISSIONER
WANTS NEW WATER LEGISLATION

tained as titles to land.
Water right litigation would rapid
ly decrease.
Information necessary for investors
would be easily obtainable; the pro-
lection and aid afforded would lead
to irrigation investments; these would
increase taxable wealth and homes
and indirectly promote other indus
tries.
The laborer would have two new
opportunities, one for work in the
construction of canals, the other to
obtain a home and the independence
of farm life.
Capital would have opened for it
a safe and profitable field for invest
ment.
The cost to the state in administer
ing a modern water law can be more
than made up through a system of
fees paid by those benefited, or a tax
placed upon the use of unappropri-
ated water for power or irrigation
purposes.
The enactment of a comprehensive
code of water law appears to be one
of the important duties Of the legis-
lators.

A STARTLING STATEMENT.
New York Medical Authorizes Claim
Dyspepsia Causes Consumption.

The post mOrtem statistics of the
big New York hospitals show that
some cases of consumption are due
to unchecked dyspepsia, especially
when the victim was predisposed to
tuberculosis.
Dyspepsia wears out the BODY and
brain, the weakened, irritable stom-
ach is unable to digest food, the body
does not receive the required nour-
shment, constipation ensues and the
victim becomes thin, weak and hag-
gard As a result, the body becomes
fertile field for the germs of dis
ease to lodge and flourish.
Therefore, the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhndered is
guilty Of contributing toward the de-
velopment Of one Of the most insidu-
Gus and fatal diseases known to man
kind.
Dyspepsia is durable if properly
treated. The Pendleton Drug Co. sell
a remedy which they positively guar
antee will cure indigestion or dyspep-
sia or they will pay for all the medi-
cine dused during the trial. This
remedy is an absolutely new medical
discovery and has been named Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets Certainly no offer
could be more fair, and the offer Of
the Pendleton Drug Co. is proof posi-
tive that Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are
dependable and infalllble remedy.
fnasmuch as the medicine will cost
you nothing If it does not benefit you
we urge you who are suffering with
Indigestion or dyspepsia to try this
remedy.
A Csc box Of Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's contains enough medicine for Is
days treatment. Remember Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets are only sold in
Pendleton by the Pendleton Drug Co.
