It dees seem that women have more than a fair share of the aches anu j pains that afflict humanity; they must . "keep up," must attend to duties in I spite of constantly aching backs,.,or i headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down pains; they must stoop over, when to stoop means torture. They must walk and bend and work with raukingpains and many aches from kidney ills. Kidneys cause more suffering than any other organ of the body.

The returns form the state election are incomplete as we go to press today, but the figures which we take from I the daily press of this morning will hardly be changed as to the result of them now in the lead. Next week we will give official count. Cole L. Blease of Newberry will be the next governor of South Carolina, j Returns received Blease, 49,907, and Featherstone, 45,944, giving the Newberry man a lead of nearly 4,000 votes. G. McDuffie Hampton of Columbia will be the new railroad commissioner. In the race for adjutant and inspector general Col. W. W. Moore has a walkover, defeating J. M. Richardson, his opponent, by a majority of approvimafely 33,000 votes. " ' 1 ' _ The total vote win ue in uic neighborhood of 105,000, varying very little from that cast in the first primary. Charleston gave Blease a large majority and Mr. Featherstone was unable to overcome the lead. In the Second congressional district the contest between Byrnes and Patterson is very close and it may take the official count to decide who will be the next congressman. J. E. Ellerbe, in the Sixth district, defeated P. A. Hodge9 by a majority I of something over 1,000. i Masonic Notice "Roornlar communication of Pomaria Lodge No. 151. A. F.

IOOF President and Cashier Mistakes in Paint The usual way to buy paint is to take the lowest price by the gallon. Mistake; the buyer loses by it; how much? De pends on the paint; it is so mncn a gallon, or so much a year. How much a gallon or year, do you think? As much perhaps, as the total price of the paint. It may take twice the number of gallons. N Avery, Delhi, N Y, owns two houses both exactly alike. He painted one with Deyoe and one with another paint Devo i 6 gallons; the other 12. Go by the name: Devoe. There's nothing cheaper. Go by the price; there's nothing dearer, except not painting at all. Poor paint is better than none. What does it cost not to paint at all? Can't figure it out exactly; say a tenth of the building a year, besides look9. What is poor paint worth, then? D^n't know and don't care; you don't want it. Go by the name.

She spoke of the blind i groping of her sisters for higher ! ideals and the troubled questions that obtruded themselves upon their subconsciousness all through the day and night. "I would like to hear from you," she said. "Perhaps in your yearning for a solution of the problems that confront you I may be able to help you. Mrs. Boogs, tell us what is the great question of your life." Mrs. Boogs rose, pale and trembling.
