Bladder troubles almost always result
from a derangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by a proper treatment of the kid

and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often through

of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. It stands the highest be

Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and

The weather now feels chilly and

Picking cotton is now the general ;
order of the day. Last week the
gins were running pretty well all
the time and lots of cotton is go
ing in this week to be ginned. I
think the most that was ginned last j

Lyerly was from 12 3-8 to 13 cents.
The* crop will be the shortest for

Well Superior court is over —did
not last as long as some thought it
would. But long enough for our
little county. The expense to the :
county of holding court has been I
very heavy to what it used to be. ;
But we are in debt now and will
be for a good many years to come.
But I am glad that our state and
! county tax is no higher than it was :
last year. I don’t see how it is with
the bonded debt on us now and the 1
: tax just the same it was last year. '
when we had no bonded debt. But '
I am not kicking about it being too
low, for I think it is about as high
again as it should be. Twelve dol- ;
! lars on the SIOOO will get up a pile '
of money and I don't know where it
all goes to. I know one thing I pay |
out a good deal for tax but never j
get anything at all back that I pay
' out. I think $5 on the thousand
■ would be a big tax for the people to
have to give away free gratis. I am
of the same opinion as “The Man
From Town,’’ that a good many'
of the offices of the county could be
done away with and save the county
of a large expense. The Ordinary
| could attend to all the business of
his office and of the board of roads
! and revenues for less than half what
1 the board costs. Then jurors could
serve for one dollar per day. I have
and it was done then to keep the
county out of debt. But those days
are passed and forever gone. The
people now seem to be for the dol
lar and the people must be taxed to
get it.
