This Edgefield woman's story given here is not an isolated case by any means; week after week, year after year, our neighbors are telling similar good news. Mrn. L. K. Dunn, Edgefield, say?: 'Kidney complaint fastened itself upon me and soon undermined my health. My kidneys and bladder both caused me much suffering and finally I became atti ic ted with dizzy spells, which grew constant. Doan's kidney pills having done a world of good in our family, I decided to try them. I was not disappointed with the results, for they helped mein everyway, removing the kidney and bladder weakness and restoring me to good health. I have had no troub le whatever with my kidneys for two aears and give all the credit of this cure to Doan's kidney pills. You may continue to use my for mer endorsement of them."

The poster parade which was planned for last Monday by the W. CT. V. was well carried out and no doubt more interest was created in the cause of temperance, for this was really impressive. The children of the town formed in line on the school campus with some of the un* ion members, and the procession made a tour of the town. Each one carried a banner and the statements upon each were calculated to arouse interest and no one who saw this band as it passed along, waving each his banner, could help be aroused to enthusiasm in the cause of temp?rance. That evening in the school auditorium Mr. J. K. Bree din lectured in the cause of temper ance, and all who heard him were impressed by the facts that he pre sented. He is an interesting speaker and the cause was well presented. .009 "naipTPP po* njnpB ?og uanjaddy a.m* pat OIUOJ 3tUJ y '"19W?8 3tH (?Tl Spp?q ptn? }no saAup '3IMOX IIPP SS313XS VI S.3?0HD ?otnoi Suiuatj^iuajjs ic-sus? pjepuBJS PIO 3m 3??joddy jo ?seq pnv sssu^ca^ JQ?
