legislators would not asplro from mor
conary motives; they would then bo

and Govermontal polleios. Let
be no clorks to Senators or mom
bors; oommittoos should have steno
graphic-id clerks. A legislator, na
tional or State growing rioh in a hur
ry should be presumption of guilt, sub
joot to rebuttal upon evidence. Venal
ity is tho curse of this ago and coun
try. Only in tho Unitod States among
civilized fc'ibos aro legislators paid
more than will decently maintain
them. An Irishman, Scotohman; Eng

mightily helps a lad's courago. The

The cause of rheumatism is laotio

In tho joints, and gives the victim such
dreadful pains and aches. Hood's 8ar

tho blood and thus cures rhoumatism.
" Five yean ago X had my first attack
of lumbago or muscular rheumatism.
I was lu bed two
weeks. I had a

but he did not do
me any good. A

mended Hood's

I sent for a bot

Real Property is not returned this
year.
ft will save much time to taxpayers,
and also greatly facilitate the work of
the Assessor, if overy person, before
loaving home, will mako out a complete
list of every item of personal property,
in the following order: Horses, cattle,
mules, sheep and goats, hoses, watches,
organ and pianos, buggies, wagons and
carriages, dogs, merchandise, machinery
and engines, moneys, notes and accounts
abovo indebtedness. All othor proporty
inclnding household.
It is always required that the Auditor
get tho first given name of the taxpayer
in full.
Under tho hoad of placo of residence
on tax return givo tho township.
All male citizens, between tho ages of
twonty-one and fifty years, on the 1st
day of January. 1895, except those who
are incapable of earning a support from
being maimed or from other causes, are
deemed taxable polls.
And overy taxpayer is required to give
the number of their School district.
After tho 20th day of February next
fifty per cent, penalty will be attached
for failures to make returns.
In every community there are persons
who cannot read, or that do not take a
newspaper. Thoco more fortunate may
do such persons a great favor by telling
them of tho timo to make retnrns, or by
returning for them.
The assessing and collecting taxes is
all dono now in tho samo year, and we
have to aggrogato the number and value
of all horses, mules, cattle and other
pieces of personalty, as woll as the acres
of land, lots and buildings, and their
value, that there is in tho County, and
and have the same on file in the Comp
troller General's Office by tho 30lh day
of June of each year; and from that timo
to tho 1st day of October tho Auditor
and Treasurer's duplicate have to be
complotod, and an abstract of tho work
in the Comptroller's Office by that time,
which will show at a glance, (hat tho
Auditor hr.8 no time to take returns or
anything clso much between the 1st day
of March and tho 1st day of October but
work on the hooks and the blanks.
Wo hope, therefore, that all taxpayers
will make their returns in time.

Harris Lithia Water.
The most remarkable Water on the Market to-day which is
Shown by its Analysis and Testimonials of the Most
Noted Physicians of the Country.
Read what a prominent merchant of Columbia, S. C, has to say for
Harris Lithia Water.
"I had long been affected with kidney troubles. I had tried all the
mineral waters from Saratoga to Porter Springs. I had tried the
Western waters and all others that I could hear of, and I have no hesi
tancy in saying that none have benefited me even approximately as
much as th6 Harris Lithia Water. I was using the Buffalo Lithia Water
when I heard of this. I do not expect to use the Bufialo Water again.
?'When I went to Harris Lithia Springs, 1 had to be assisted out of
my chair. After remaining two weeks I could'get about as good as
anybody. It acted on me like a charm?quickly and effectively. This
water is now being largely sold in Columbia, and I think every person
who has tried it will agree with mc in the belief that it is the most re
markable water in the country. From a simple interest in suffering hu
manity, I would like very much to see it given a trial.
C A. BALDWIN, Columbia, S. C.
Harris Lithia Water Co., Harris Springs, S. C.
Asiieville, N. C.| September, 9, 1893.
Mr. J. T. Harris:'
We have been selling the Harris Lithia Water for some time, and
find it a ready seller; those who have tried it are loud in its praise. The
doctors here regard it superior to either the Buffalo or Londonderry
Waters. Wc predict for it a wonderful sale when the merits become
more generally known.
Yours very truly, RAVSOR & SMITH,
Prescription Druggist.
Piiosi'HitiTY, S. C. Feb. 28, 1894.
Mr. ]. T. Harris:
I have been under the treatment of several physicians, and been to
different watering places during the last ten years for kidney disease. It
affords me pleasure to say that I have received more benefit from the
use of Han'18 Lithia Water than all remedies combined.
Respectfully,
G. D. BROWN.
