A GOOD FRIEND A good friend stands by you when In need. Walhalla people tell how Dean's Kidney Pilla have stood the test. W. 8. Grahl, blacksmith, of N. Church St., Walhalla, endorsed Doan'a three years ago and again confirms the story. Could you ask for more convincing testimony? "I hurt my back many years ago and since then I have been troubled with kidney complaint," aaya Mr. Grahl. "When I have one of the8e attacks severe paine shot through my kidneys and these organs do not act as they should. I have dizzy spells and se vero pains In the back of my head. For th? last 10 years I have used Donn's Kidney Pills whenever an at tack of this came on and they havo nevor failed to quickly relieve me. 1 think Doan's are a wonderful medi cine." (Statement given December 17, 1914.) On April ?, 1918, Mr. Qrabl said: "I am glad of another opportunity to say a good word for Doan's Kidney Pills. I have not had to use a kidney remedy for nome time now and believe Doan'a have effected a cure. I adviae anyone suffering from kidney compluint to give this remedy a trial." GOe, at all dealers. Fostor-Milburn Co., Mfgrs.. Buffalo N. Y OSBORNE NAMED COMPT. ?KN. Anderdon Man to Succeed Sawyer. Reduces the Tax Levy. Columbia, Aug. 28.-Rutland L. Osborne, of Anderson, to-night was appointed by Governor Manning, Comptroller General of South Caro lina, to succeed the late Carlton W. Sawyer, who was accidentally killed at his room here on August 23d by the discharge of a shotgun he was cleaning preparatory to a hunt. Mr. Osborne's first act waa to re duce the tax levy from nine and one half mills, which was the figure set in the appropriation by the last Leg islature, to eight and one-fourth mills, a decrease of one and one fourth mills. The State Tax Commission bas placed an Increase of forty million dollars on the tax books of the State, and Mr. Osborne, acting under au thority of a clause Inserted in thc revenue bill 'by the last General As sembly reduced the levy. Governor's Statement. The following statement was given out. by Governor Manning: "i have appointed Rutledge L. Os borne, of Anderson county, Comp troller General, to fill the unexpired term of the late Carlton Sawyer. '.Mr. Osborne was the chief clerk hi : he office of the Comptroller Gen eral. His first duty in assuming the work of that office was to fix the State levy in accordance with "an act to make appropriations to meet ordinary expenses of the State gov ernment for the fiscal year com mencing January 1, 1918. And to provide for a tax sufficient to defray j the same, and for borrowing money. Under that act it is provided that the levy shall not exceed nine and a half mills. The work of the Tax Commission in placing property on the books which heretofore had escaped taxa tion, and of equalizing assessments, bas resulted in increasing the taxa ble -property of the State over fifty millions of dollars. The Comptroller General has fixed the State levy at eight and a fourth mills, a decrease of one and one-fourth mills from the estimate of nine and one-half mills made by the General Assembly on the taxable values of the year 1917. Many of the county delegations of the General Assembly provided for this flexible levy In their counties, but in some counties where the In crease In valuations was material and no provision has boon made for reducing the levy for county pur poses, action to lower tho levy should bo taken 'by the authorities, as more money will 'be raised on the levy of u mills than is necessary for county purposes, and to reduce the levy to such a point ns to raise only the money appropirated in county supply 'bilis."

Proof that Some Women do Avoid Operations Mrs. Etta Demon, of Ogdensburg, Wis., says: " I suffered from female troubles which caused piercing pains like a knife through my back and side. I finally lost all my strength so I had to go to bed. The doctor advised an operation but I would not listen to it. I thought of what I had read about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and tried it. The first bottle brought great relief and six bottles have entirely cured me. All womon who have female trouble of any kind should try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." How Mrs. Boyd Avoided an Operation. Canton, Ohio.-"I suffered from a female trouble which caused me much suffering, and two doctors decided that I would havo to go through an operation before I could get well. "My mother, who had been helped by Lydia E. Pink barn's Vegetable Compound, advised me to try it be fore submitting to an operation. It relieved me from my troubles so I can do my house work without any dlffloulty. I advise any woman who is afflicted with female - roubles to give Lydia E.

More than 3 00 manufacturing plants in the Atlanta district using over 25 horse-power daily from the Georgia Railway and Power Com pany, and not engaged In the produc tion of absoluta war necessities will be denied power after Wednesday, September 4th. Not only will these plants be forced to shut down or make some ar rangements to use othor power, but even many plants placed on the pref erential list by the priorities board of the government will also be cur tailed in the use of power for the reason that on account of the most extensive drought in the history of the company there is not sufficient water to produce even this much power. About 100 plants in the city of Atlanta 'will 'be affected, and the losses to manufacturers and to labor will amount to thousands of dollars. All plants working on 100 per cent war material, mounitions, ship bulldln , and other lines of like na ture sro -being given power first, and then follows many other industries classed as essential which will 'be given the remaining power as long MS it lasts. 152,000 Kilowatt Hours Left. After supplying the municipal lighting, street railways and water works plants, tho company submit ted to the priorities board that it had remaining just 152,000 kilowatt hours per day. The priorities 'board states that this is not sufficient power to supply the plants which have government contracts, 'but that it may be enough for thoso which are 100 per cent es sential. The company was instructed to work in conjunction with the State and local fuel and food boards so that all plants which could use coal be furnished with that fuel at once. One of the plants which was ordered to go on coal fuel was the Rome Railway and Light Company, and the hydro-electric power being furnished this company Is to be turned over to the Anchor Duck Mills. Small corn mills will also be given power as long as possible, but even these 'will be allowed to run only part of the timo. No Immediate Relief. Officials of tho power company see no immediate relief from the water famine even if generous rains come now. The present drought is an ex tension of tho drought of last year, and came when the water was al ready low. Tho rains of last winter were not sufficient to bring the levels back to normal. Roth the Tallulah and Chattahoochee ?water sheds are dry, hence 'both plants of tho com pany are producing a minimum of power. Officials say that even if it rains now it will take weoks for the water to become available. Arrested for Failure to Work.
