MARION VETERAN WINS HARD 45-YEAR BATTLE. WAS FORCED TO RETIRE FROM BUSINESS LIFE. TRIED MANY WAYS, AT GREAT COST, TO END TROUBLESTELLS INTERESTING STORY. Perhaps because of the hardships he was forced to endure when the South was being devastated by the events of the War between the States, J E Middleton, of Marion, now a retired merchant and one of the veterans of that conflict, began forty-five years ago to suffer intensely with stomach trouble. Try as he would, he found himself unable to relieve this condition, which he finally came to look upon as a Nemesis. Hundreds of dollars he spent in direct attempts to combat this trouble, and hundreds, perhaps thousands of dollars he indirectly lost because of impaired health and decreased efficiency. But, after his trouble had forced him to retire from business perhaps years earlier than he would had he been normally healthy, he found in Tanlac, the master medicine, he says, just what he needed to relieve his ailment, though it had steadily strengthened its hold unon him duriug the forty-five years of his suffering. Mr Middleton is a well known and highly respected citizen of Marion. He voluntarily came to Dr W L Harrelson, manager of Harrelson Drug Co, Marion, and gave the following remarkable endorsement of the master medicine, Tanlac. Tanlac has done something for Mr Middleton dozens of other medicines failed to do, and he emphatically says so. "I can not say too much for your medicine, Tanlac," said the veteran. That statement should settle many doubts. He is in position to know, and he, like all other substantial citizens, does not recommend a medicine unless he is sure of its value. His statement follows: "I suffered from stomach trouble for forty-five years and I have spent hundreds of dollars for medicines, but none brought me relief. Finally, after years of suffering with ill health that probably was directly brought on by indigestion, I tried Tanlac and it worked wonders for me. "My trouble became so bad that I was unable to retain anything on my stomach. I had no appetite and could not eat. My sleep was broken and unrefreshing. My system became generally run down. When my trouble was growing worse, I was a merchant in Marion, but, as a consequence of my physical ills, I was forced to stop merchandising and live a quiet life. Before I took Tanlac, I would have fantastic dreams at night, but, thanks to Tanlac, I now sleep soundly and I never know what it is to have a dream. "You can imagine how dreary the prospect was for me, and I was well along in years. It was a happy day for me when I saw the advertisement of Tanlac. I bought a bottle, and I obtained relief from the very first dose. I have taken six bottles, and expect to continue taking it for I believe it is the medicine for me. "I can heartily endorse Tanlac and recommend it. I know what it will do, and I think everybody who suffers with stomach trouble should know about this wonderful medicine." Tanlac, the master medicine, is sold exclusively in Kingstree by Kingstree Drug Co. Price: SI per bottle, straight Personals from Venters. Venters, January 24:?Owing to the Rev Ingraham's absence, Rev J D Carraway filled his appointment at old Johnsonville church Sunday afternoon. Miss Christine Newell spent last week-end with friends in Florence county. Miss Edimao Huggins of St Stephens was at home here for the week-end. Miss Janie Davis returned home Saturday from a short visit to relatives in Georgetown. Mrs W T Lee returned Friday from the Florence infirmay, where she had been a patient for several weeks. Miss Gertrude Davis, to the sincere regret of a host of friends, was taken to the McLeod Infirmary for treatment last week. Miss Marie Flowers went to Charleston last week to have an operation for tonsilitis. Miss Claudia Davis is spending some time with her parents here.

After these interesting ! exercises the members of the camp j and the visitors who were present i j were served with a delightful repast' ; by the Spring Bank school children.1 j This was done as a demonstration of j the work that has been recently un-' ! dertaken by this school. With the help of Miss Edwards j and kind friends in Kingstree, a I ! small kitchen outfit has been established in the old Spring Bank school building, and every day tne children are served by the larger girls with hot lunch. This is a great treat to H i the children as well as a long step to- V I ward domestic science in the school. ! No school in the State has heretofore ^ i tried this plan, and Spring Bank is g ' very proud of commencingso worthy ^ j an enterprise. Only simple vegetable j soups are served, and there is no expense to the school, all the necessaries being supplied by the patrons. This is quite an undertaking for so ? small a school, but there is no doubt 1 that it will be very successful, and J | that Spring Bank's example will be B I followed by other school all over the JI i State.
