; Last week from our somewhat
faded memory we forgot that Col. G.

of Judge of Probate and was followed

Before the Civil War our school

had commisisoners of schools, poor

and served without pay. It

unable to pay. They were enumerated
by the Board of Commissioners. as

Here came in vogue red hot politics
ir)| the Democratic party with a
great deal of confusion (Meetze and
Wingard) and Prof. Wm. H.
Sharpe was elected. !
In the next race E L. 'Vingard |
won the laurels back and managed
the school commissioner's affairs l'or
the succeeding term.
Mr. J. Frank Kyzei in the next
el?*ftion was recognized as one of the
best old field school teachers we had
a,id the people trusted his care and
keeping with the office.
Here rotation in Qffieo^came in, and j
the people of he Fork claimed they
had the proper man in John Farr and
was entitled to the position this term
so he won.
Then the friends of another Fork
teacher claimed another term and
that John S. Derrick was the man
for the office?the people of the
South side of Saluda agreed and Mr.
Derrick filled this term.
Now Mr. J. E. R. Kyzer "jines
the candidates column" and with his
fine ability and experience, he was
made Supt. of Education the second
time.
Then in A. D. Martin legal and
educational talent with line oratorical
powers, were introduced in the
campaign with his genial winning
ways, that landed him in the superintendent's
office. Neat books, polite
attention to all teachers and the
people generally, he entered the 2d
term, and part of H. D. flirnion's

Many old folks sav'Doan's Kidney Pills

Alabama Lady Was Sick For Three
Years, Suffering Pain, Nervous
and Depressed?Read Her
Own Story of Recovery.
I
Paint Rock, Ala.?Mrs. C. M, Stegall,
Of near here, recently related the following
Interesting account of her recovery:
"I was in a weakened copdition.
I was sick three years In bed,
Buffering a great deal of pain, weak,
nervous, depressed. I was so weak,
I couldn't walk across the floor; Just
had to lay and my little ones do the
work. I was almost dead. I tried
every thing I heard of, and a number o 1
doctors. Still I didn't get any relief.
I couldn't eat, and slept poorly. ,1
believe if I hadn't heard of and taken
Cardui I would have died. I bought
six bottles, after a neighbor told me
what it did for her.
"I began to eat and 6leep, began to
gain my strength and am now well
and strong. I haven't had any trouble
since . ,. I stfr9 can testify to the;
good that Cardui did zne. I don't!
think there is a better tonic made j
and I believe it saved my life."
For over 40 years, thousands of women
have used Cardui successfully,
in the treatment of many womanly
ailments.
If you suffer as these womon did
take CarduL It may help you, too.
