> "GAVE ME THE MONTHS TO LIVE' MISS GARRICK WAS TOLD HEF CASE WAS HOPELESS?GREAT JOY CAME YEAR LATER. ? "You have rbout three months t< live." Miss Effie Garrick, of 111( Huger St., Columbia, was told, aftei > she had undergone an operation foi stomach trouble, more than a yeai ago. Miss Garrick says "I did no' die, but I did continue to feel terri ble until recently when I found i means of combatting my troubles." Miss Garrick says she believes she has at last found a means of restor jner her health, which, all too soor ' for her years, has continually threat ened during the past ten years t< break down completely. She hat been n sufferer with stomach trouble and other kindred ailments, which re - * 1 x x_ ?l:.I duced her health to a state wiuci made her almost wretched all th< time, she said. Tanlac, the mastei medicine, Miss Garrick believes, wil prove its superior worth in her case as it has in hundreds of other case: in South Carolina. Her statemenl follows: "I have suffered for ten years with stomach trouble, indigestion nervousness, sleeplessness and awfui headaches. My system all the time has been in a very much run dowr condition. More than a year age I became so ill I felt I surely wouhi die. After I had undergone an operation, I was told I could hardl:, live more than three months. "Of course, I did not die, but I did continue to feel terribly, an<j ' nothing seemed to relieve my troubles. I took many kinds of medicines, but to no avail. I would have headaches frequently, and they were so painful I thought I would go crazy. While I had a headache, 1 was always forced to stay in bed. I was very nervous. I would suffer with a full, heavy feeling after eating, and I had little appetite. I was forced to eat a very light diet. My condition has been steadily growing worse for the past ten years. "I decided to try Tanlac as a sort of forlorn hope, as I had read so much of its wonderful effects. The first bottle relieved my stomach trouble to an extent that I consider remarkable. I began to sleep well, an/1 mv nnnAtitp hpcame enormous. auu 4"J Mrrvv* so much did it improve. I would wake at night and be so hungry that I would have to get something to eat. My system responded immediately to Tanlac, and built up rapidly "Tanlac is a great medicine, and I am always glad to recommend it. It is due many good words, for it is so valuable a remedy." Tanlac, the master medicine, is sold exclusively by P. B. Speed, Ab1 beville; J. H. Bell & Son, Due West; E. A. Fuller & Co., McCormick. ^ ^ - ..j. mce: per douib siraiguu MEETING OF TEACHERSSATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19 The Abbeville County Teachers' Association will meet at the Court House, Saturday, February 19th. at twelve o'clock.

Middleton, Augusta's ' well known citizen, has an article in the Columbia State, advocating another bridge across the Savannah. The State contains the following on the subject: To the Editor of The State: t The legislatures of South Carolina and Georgia should each appoint a committee to confer and make recommendations to the two states for a plan to bridge the Savannah river between the two states. Here is a larpe stream that sep) arates the two states. Not being en) tirely in either state, it is unbridged. r Bridges over this large stream are r needed in this modern day. p If the two states shoud agree to t erect one bridge a year over the . stream until ten bridges were erecci ed, it would mean a great deal to each state. Each state could pay half ? the cost; and each state could ar. range its method of raising the moni ey to pay its half?probably the . county which a bridge touches should > pay half of the state's expense. ; . This is an important matter and ! | will nave to oe taKen up ueiure luny . ?the sooner the better. On.j bridge i the first year at a point a'oous half j way between Anderson and Augusta would serve a great territory; then [ one between Augusta and Savannah , the next year; then another cutting 5 the upper river into a quarter sect tion the third year, etc. Can't you agitate this for the oene5 fit of the two states and especially , the large number of counties from I the mountains to the seaboard on i the western side of the state? i H.
