EXPENSES GROWING. Almost Beyond Work When She Be gan Taking Tanlae, Which Soon Restored Her. There is no bigger problem than that whioh the woman worker bas to meet. With rent, clothing, food, fuel all ?oing higher and higher, her worries are greater than ever. Though weaker and more liable to illness than men, these women must be at their best, whether they aro in office, store, factory or borne. They must be bright, confident, am bitious or fall. The weak, nervous, run-down wo man has very little chance, and this was realized by Josephine Dougherty. Miss Dougherty ls ono of tho army of women workers, a competent, quick-witted saleswoman in a Now York department storo which has HO,OOO customers daily. Her home is at 4 8 G East 138th street. "Because of suffering, my work was getting so hard I could not stand it," this girl declared. "I would suf fer so after eating that 1 could not keep my strength up. There would be pains and 1 would have a feeling of suffocation. I had lost sleep so long and had become so nervous I was in a badly run-down condition. I was subject to headaches and pains in my limbs and back. Even my heart had become weak. "I knew 1 could not go on that way. but the medicine I took did not seem to do me any good. Other girls began to tell me about Tanlac, and 1 finally decided to try it. Tan lac, 1 know, is the best tonic and builder there is. "1 feel just line. I do not suffer from those pains or weaknesses any more. I sleep well and my appetite has returned. My nervousness went with my stomach trouble. I recom mend this Tanlae to every one I know who needs building up and cleansing of the system like 1 did." Tanlae. the master medicine, is sold exclusively by Dell's Drug Store, Walhalla; J. C.

Townville, July l-Editor Keowee Courier: We have thought for some time of writing an article for your j paper, but the pressure of business ' prevents us from doing many things we would like to do. 1 may write for your valuable paper awaiti some time, but right now 1 wish to mention a fact that exists in a very small terri tory In Oconee county, near Town ville, in which lives a well to do far mer who, when asked by the com mittee to buy bonds, replied that he would "buy from tho committee at Seneca"; and when asked by tho Seneca committee be would reply that he would "buy from the commit tee at Townville." After investiga tion wo lind that he and some of his neighbors have bought from no ono. A thing of this kind at a time like this makes a patriotic neighbor a lit tle, indignant; and not only us, but Seneca as well, for I am told by good authority that they have named that little section of the county occupied by these tight-wads "Slackersvlllo." Now, Afr. Editor, we think this thing should be investigated, and if there are mon who will not aid the government by buying bonds and stamps, tho different committees should expose them throup,n the press, so the whole count.-y will know who they are. In the last drlvo (for W.S.S.) they would not subscribe for any. One of the committee reports that every one in the district has been visited, both black and white, and only three re fused to buy, and they are white men -land owners-and in good circum stances. If The Courier did not see and publish T. M. Welborn's letter that ho sent in with $1,000 for W.S.S. lt would be well to clo so yet. It could be obtained from J, D. Hanunet, and no doubt would do them good. A man who will not do his part in this war should go over into tho Pendle ton section and look up yat Morris and talk with him. His boys, like many others, aro now in France. They have gono between us and de struction, like going down in a well. When they put their feet on tho soil over the water they looked back and said, "You keei> your hands on tho windlass by buying bonds and stamps and we will do our part over here."
