Doetors in all parts or the country

year are very distressing and leave
the system in a run down condition,
particularly the kidneys which seem
to suffer most, as every victim com

bles which should not be neglected, as

more serious sickness, 6uch as dread

GF THE AGE OF CHIVALRY
Fat Victim of Cupid Bashfully Ac
knowledges Real Reason for His
Act of Heroism.
The smallest boy had broken
through the ice and the fat boy was
crawling to his rescue.
"Come back, Fatty!" the other boys
shrieked. "You'll bust it all in, an'
"* L-iV
cen youse 11 uuiu un uiu?ucu.
Bat the fat boy, flat on his stom
ach and spread out to his widest ex
tent, ignored these warning cries and
steadily crept toward the black hole
and Tommy's clinging fingers.
Once the ice made a cracking sound
and the watchers yelled with dismay.
But the fat boy did not halt. Nearer
and nearer he came, and finally his
outstretched hands caught those cling
ing fingers and drew the small boy, lit
tle by little, onto the firmer ice and
so to safety.
"What did youse do it fer, Fatty?"
one of the boys tearfully remonstrat
ed.
"Aw, " replied the hero, "I knew
what I lost in weight I made up in
wideness, see?"
Then his face softened. -
"Besides," he bashfully said, "I'm
sweet on Tommy's sister!"
WOMEN AND HEALTH.
Women are beginning to realize
more fully that good health is not t?
be found in the use of cosmetics antf
face powders. The appearance oi
health may follow facial treatment,
but health itself lies much deeper than
the surface.
Most important to the health of ev
ery woman is regularity of the bowels
and digestive organs. The weary
eyes, bad breath, frequent headaches,
pimples and general air of lassitude,
is in most every case due to consti
pation or indigestion, or both. There
are various remedies prescribed for
this condition, but the easiest, moot
pleasant and certainly effective, is
a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin known to druggists
as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Bepsln. This
simple remedy is far preferable to
harsh salts and cathartics and violent
purgative waters that disturb the
whole system without affording more
than temporary relief.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
tonic laxative, mild in its action,
pleasant to the taste and positive in
its effect, strengthening the muscles
of stomach and bowels so that after
a short time these organs regain the
power to perform their natural func
tions without assistance.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in 50c and
$1.00 bottles. If you have never tried
it, write for a sample to Dr. W. B.
Caldwell, 201 Washington St., Monti
cello, 111.; he will gladly send n trial
bottle without any expense to you j
whatever.

WDRKIM6 FOR FAIR
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CALLED
MFFTING TO ORGANIZE THE
ASSOCIATION.
DRAWING OF FAIR GROUND
Much Interest Being Shown By Peo
ple of the Whole Pee Dee Section?
Indications Are That Efforts Will
Be Crowned With Success.
Florence.?In furtherance of the
effort to organize an agricultural fair
the secretary of the chamber of com
merce has had a drawing made rep
resenting a modern fair ground and
this has been placed on exhibtlon.
This drawing shows all of the appur
tenances of the fair ground devoted
to the exhibition of live stock of all
kinds, agricultural implements, agri
cultural products and those things es
sential to domestic economy, arts,
etc.
This drawing has been viewed by
a great many people and has stimu
lated much interest In the meeting,
which was held here for the purpose
of organizing a fair association.
In addition to the interest of citi
zens of this city, a number of letters
have been received by the secretary
of the chamber of commerce from
business men and farmers in vari
ous parts of the county signifying the
intention of the writers to lend their
influence towards the organization of
an agricultural fair. The indications
now are that the affair will be a hum
mer and that the effort to organize
a county fair will be crowned with
success.
Not only arc the people of the
county interested in the movement
but many persons from other parts
of the great Pee Dee section. Noth
ing nt a colfish nntnrp has pntftred
into this effort and there is a general
determination on the part of the peo
ple to organize ? fair association
here that will be the greatest of its
kind in South Carolina.
Two Charged With Murder of Winn.
Hampton.?Mrs. Ella Wheeler Wells
was arrested here by the deputy sher
iff, J. Herman Lightsey, on a warrant
charging her with the poisoning of
G. Walker Winn, and Is now in jail
awaiting a preliminary hearing. The
warrant was sworn out by Walker
Winn's mother, Mrs. M. W. Terry, of
the Horse Gall section of Hampton
county. The warrant also charges
Owen Robertson as a particeps crim
inis in the death of Winn. Robertson
on hearing the warrant came to
Hampton and surrendered to the
sheriff and Is now in jail.

Chester.?The publication in certain
Georgia papers of an item to the ef
fect that W. E. Perry, wanted here
for the alleged murder of Langdon
T. Boozer, of. Newberry, in 1905, led
Sheriff Colvin to wire the Columbus
authorities for information, but the
reply came back that no such arrest
has been made. There is a reward of
$1,000 for Perry's capture, and in
numerable times he has been report
ed as in custody, but each time the
story turns out to be a mistake.
To Those Liable For Income Tax.
Columbia.?The 20th day of Febru
ary is the last day for making tax re
turns. This applies to the income tax
and all other taxable properties,
which are reauired to be returner in

LESSON FOR FEBRUARY 18.
MINISTRY OF JOHN TKE BAPTIST.
T.ES80N TEXT-Mark 1:1-8; T.uke 3:1-20.
MEMORY VERSES-Luke 3:8. 9 or 16.
17.
GOT.DEN TEXT?Repent ye: for the
kingdom of heaven Is at hand.?Matt. 3:2.
The story of John the Baptist's rain
Istry. opening as it does with a
prophetic reference, connects the Old
and the New Testaments, showing *he
New to be the fulfillment of the Old.
Thus we say: The Old Is In the New
contained, the New is in the Old ex
plained; the Old is in the New con
oealed, the New is in the Old revealed.
Christ is the theme and unifier of both
Testaments. If he had not. been com
ing. the Old would not have been writ
ten; if he had not come, the New
would not have been written.
What a strange impression this fiery
preacher of the wilderness. John, must
have iade upon his hearers! His
dress, a bis message, bore the marks
of the wild. Strange, is it no*, that
such a one should be chosen to pre
pare the way for the Messiah? We
might have chosen a different lnstru
ment?a well dressed, polished, elo
quent. silver-tongued orator. W?
might have despised such a man as
John. But God uses the weak things
of the world to confound the mighty;
the foolish, to silence the wise; a
worm, to thrash a mountain, that no
flesh should glory in his sight. How
rugged, fearless, searching, was the
message of this solitary man! Just
such a prophet is needed to be in the
midst of so much kid glcve preaching
today.
The Baptist's message had its basis
In the word of God?"The word of God
came unto John in the wilderness."
That is where every pulpit message
ought to come from. The business o 1
the preacher and teacher of Christ is
not to invent a gospel, but to proclaim
one already provided. The Bible is the
final critic of the message.
John's ministry was preparatory; It
looked forward to the coming of some
thing better. Just as John himsell
gave way to Christ, so his message ol
repentance made room for faith in
Christ. John baptized with water un
to repentance/ The Baptists's ministry
went no farther than that. Jesus
Christ turned the water of John's bap
lism into steam by the fire of the
Holy Ghost. John prepared; Jeaus re
generated.
The necessity for repentance cannot
be overlooked in this lesson. In a
fense. it Is the first step into the King
dom. Both John and Jesus began their
ministry with a call to repentance.
Repentance Is clearly defined in this
lesson as a turning from a life of Bin
to a life of righteousness. There are
three elements in repentance: First
the intellect is Involved?it Is a
change of fnind or viewpoint; second
the emotions are Involved?It means
lo have a care regarding the thing Id
question, so we' find the words "sigh."
"grief" substituted for repentance;
third, the will plays a prominent part
In repentance, for tfiere is included in
the word the Idea-of an after-thought
resulting in a change In one's course
of action. Repentance is not only s
heart broken for sin, but also from sin
We must forsake what we would have
God remit. No amount of knowledge
t-Via* o fhirxr io wpnnc nnrf no amount
of weeping over that wrong, constl
tutes repentance, unless in addition tc
this there is a definite turning away
from the thing that causes the sorrow
That this is John's meaning of re
pentance is clear from his exhortation
to those who asked him the meaning
of his call to repentance?exact nc
more than that which is appointed
you; do violence to no man. neithei
accuse any falsely; bring forth, there
fore, fruits worthy of repentance. A
little boy was once asked the meaning
of repentance. He replied: "It meant
being sorry enough for a thing so as
not to do it again."
Fine pedigree, a magnificent ances
try, good social and religious standing
rlid not. in the mind of the Baptist, ex
empt his hearers from the necessity ol
repentance. That which is born ol
the flesh?no matter how fine, cultured
and educated it may be?is still flesh
A man must be born again, he must
receive a new nature before he can
enter into the Kingdom. If a man is
born but once, he dies twice?physic
ally and spiritually; if born twice?
once of the flesh, and once of Ihe spirit
?he dies but once, physically, the sec
qnd death has no power over him.
John preacher! the wrath to come
Evidently he believed in future pun
ishment. He did not believe that the
desire to escape future punishment
was sufficient or the best reason why
mpn should receive Jesus Christ. And
It may be that no man really becomes
a Christian who seeks to be one only
that he may escape the results of his
sin. We are saved that we may glori
fy God in the life that npw Is as well
as to be delivered from the wrath to
come. He who does not serve Christ
here will not dwell with him in
heaven.
The fact of wrath and future punish
ment is not an invention of modern
theology. Christ believed in it and
taught it when he referred to the
"worm that dieth not. and the Are
that is not quenched." and pictured
the ungodly being cast into "everlast
ing fire." We should have to blot out
a large part of the Rible if we were
to blot out all tho Scriptures which
teach future retribution for sin.
whnn wa rnrmiflpr thp fpnrful atroci
ties perpetrated upon <hp sons of men,
the frightful Iniquities practiced upon
helpless women and children, and then
?ee the ease and luxury and splendor
In which the perpetrators of these
crimes live, we would be very sorry
to he assured that there Is no future
-etribution for the perpetrators of
Mich deeds. Give the justice of heaver
he same degree of common sensf
op-rdcrat'.on that you give to the jus
ice of earth, and somewhere in th<
ther world you must place a pen?
entiary.
H0USEW01
The woman who "keeps house" has
enough to do when she is in good, sound
health, but if she is weak, tired all the
time, and suffering from morn to night
with an aching back, house-work becomes
a heavy burden.
Many women who were afflicted in this
way say that Doan's Kidney Pills haYe
made life easier for them.
Women are Eubject to kidney disease.
The clothing tliey wear, the work they do,
the worry and strain of bearing and rear
ing children, the lack of proper exercise;
all tend to it.
Backache, bearing-down pains, headache,
dizzy spells, faintness, fits of "blues," and
other troubles often thought to be peculiar
to the sex, are found frequently in kidney
disease. When any one of these ills ap
pears, together with a discolored condi
tion of the kidney secretions, with passages
too frequent, scanty or burning, just make
up jour mind that your kidneys are weak,
and be quick to help them.
Doan's Kidney Pills have helped a great
many weak women through the trying
times when kidney disease means so much
added misery. They do not disturb the
stomach or bowels and contain no poison
ous. dangerous nor habit-forming drugs.
Doan's are harmless for children too.

SCREAMED WITH PAIN.
A Connecticut Woman's Awful 8uffer>
Ing.
Mrs. Selina Jones, 200 Ma hi St., An- y-.
sonia, Conn., says: "I began to haim kid-'
ney trouble about 1898. An inflanrasation
of the bladder set in. I had cutting, drag*
ging backaches; pain through the loins and
sides and soon sot into a state of -?eak?
ness, languor and general depression. Mr
limbs were so sore and tender 1 eottfd
hardly bear the pressure of tlvs bed cloth*
ing. I bloated badly and my ankles swell
ed. I noticed a continual ringing is tny
ears and specks flitted before my eye*. The
kidney secretions were unnatural end fenr
irregular. At times I fairly screamed with
pain. I became so weak and sick, that I f
was put to bed and stayed there hfee
months under doctor's treatments. ? grew ,
worse constantly, and my family Wts en
tirely discouraged. Beginning with IDofB's
Kidney Pills, 1 was surprised at their ef
fect. In less than a week, kidney weak- :
ness and inflammation of the blead? dis
appeared. In three weeks I was up and .
soon resumed my housework. I- think tb?
use of Doan'a Kidney Pills sated my fife,"
