'.a*i - i It Is one thing to go about our life work as a s?nse of stern duty, ipnd another to go about it in a way that sail make both o\L^elyes and everybody about about ^as iyappy. To be pleasant is a consumucum iuai within the power of every one of us. fTo be great is the achievement of the /ew. There is nothing that sits so gracefully upon a bi&ht woman as gentlenesss and pleasantness. The greatest Intellect the Lord ever struck from out .the eternities is devoid of charm without the gift of affability and sweetness of mauer.

It is related that he originated the idea of painting advadvetslng on the roadside fences. Truth in Politics. It is sure interesting to learn thai Chisago advertising men are going t< try and ertract the truth from Republican politics and give it to the peoplt * ?in the interests of Mr. Hughes.

Some fine day truth will be esteemed to be truth, in or out of i>olities. Like mercy, its quality should not be strained. Interesting experiment. Watch it! Faith Unalloyed The B. F. Goodrich Compauy has been doing some excellent tire advertising all though the season, but in the Sunday pttpers of July 9 they left the exclusive topic of tires and advertised themselves and all the goods on which their trade mak appears. In the center of the page they gave a very ppen and believable analogy between the alloying of gold and the compounding of rubber for purposes of wear and service. They told us that even an expert might have difficulty iu telling from the appearance of teh finished article, whether the compound and the process had been such as to insure the service to be rightly expected from an article of rubber. They showed us that "the public must therefore buy its rubber goods largely on faith," and clinched a point right there by making the next sentence. It* tho rvf tho mflkpr" Then they told us that the Goodrich factory had been learning?for for forty-seven years?how to best compound rubber. They declared that for forty-seven years they had kept faith with their customers, had dealt squarely, and they cited their present I?osItiou as tli largest rubber factory in the world to prove their dependabiliHty. Then they said that even a child might know dependable rubber good' and pointed to their trade mark, which crowned the advertisement, as the one sign by which they might be known. Around this piece of telling copy they had grouped a list, a partial list, of the 267 different lines manufactured. But even if it was partial, it was a very inclusive list, the observer found there everything eh had ever heard of in rubber and some he had not heard of, the only ommissions were a rubber neck and an elaatic conscience; the last, of course, would be imnosslble. it could not bear the Goodrich trade YOUR BOWELS SHOULD MOVE ONCE A DAY A free easy movement of the bowels every day is a sign of pood health.

He deavored at all times to do his wo so that no one would have reason regret having voted for him and pi misecTif again elected would give hi best attention to his duties. V. H. Vaughn explained his qua flcations and asked to be remember i on the 29th of August. Mr. E. D. (Atkinson for cororn asked for the votes because he need the salary and felt able to perform t 1 duties of the office. \ H. T.

He i viewed the work of his administratis and said his salary was just one-tif what is lading paid present incumbei Clamed that incumltent had on carried to partial completion met urea that had been inaugurated him and said that everythi considered, he honestly believed, had done more for the educational i terest of the county than any ntli one man. Said he was not trying throw mud on any one but was goi to brush th? mud oft" his own repututi and said that an examination of t records of the office during his incui bency would prove that his flgui were correct and that, any charge the contrary was false. Said th; the statement published by his suoc< sor (the present incumbent t was ft ured from a wrong standpoint ai that if the statement had been figur from the annual statement no su statement as that sent out would ha ' Vi lx>en made. However, the wrong had been done and that he was thus forced 1 Mto come before the people for vindi- < cation. 1 R. P. Turner. Better schools and nearer home is Mr. Turner's plea. He says bring the schools near the children, that a very small i>ercent of ^ the children are able to attend the 1 colleges, therefore it is lmi>er?tive that the home schools be made to meet the necessity. st R. A. Rouse in reply read letter to l's Kirby Rivers from state superinr tendent and exhibited copy of Rivers' report in proof of the report made by him and to which Rivers had taken 1(* exception. g P.

Called attention to fact that lumber could be bought for $10 per 1000 when he first went into office but was now bring^ ing from $20 to $30 and not as good he quality, and that something besides lumber would have to be used in he bridge building. Charge that Brock 1)6 Mill bridge had cost the county $420 lpf was incorrect, that it had only cost $16 and itimized record in .the office ion would prove it. Said he had known atl no one in the discharge of his duties tIv and had tried to save all he could for the county in every way?especially in rst that he had always used the very best >he material and had strived for perma, nent work. E. R. Knight pointed with 'pride to his record in the supervisor's office er.

W. Rivers cited to his personal success and to his administration of he the office of road commissioner of ?x" Court House Township, as proof of his *? qualification for the office of supervisor. 'n' W. A. Sullivan thinks he can fill the er> office and said he had experience as iat a carpenter. J. A. Welsh said that all the money er of the county passed through tye t?' treasurer's hands and that if he was nr elected he would keep a cash book and that his books would be kept in m~ such manner that he could tell in two minutes if asked by any one just how the finances of the county stood, and that he would not pay a claim for one ^ district by using money tibat belonged ' to some other district, of ...

A WORD WITH WOMEN Valuable Advice for Cheraw Readers. P.-any a woman endures <Uth noble patience the daily misery of backache, pains about the hips, blue, nervous spells, dizziness and urinary disorders, hopless of relief because she doesn't know what is the matter. It is not true that every pain in ~ . Lf? MnAA.ilu*. iAic uauft u; r.ipo ID uuuuic pcuuiioi to the sex." O'ten when the kidneys get congested and inflamed, such aches and pains follow. You can tell it is kidney trouble if the secretions are dark colored, contain sediment; the passages are too frequent or scanty. Then help the weakened kidneys. Don't expect them to get well alone. Doan's Kidney Pills have won the praise of thousands of women. They are endorsed right in this locality. Read this woman's convincing statement: Mrs. W. T. Kelly, 115 Robinson St., Bennettsville S. C., says: "My back ached constantly. I tired easily and didn't feel like doing my housework. I was sore and lame and had dizzy spells and headaches. The kidney secretions were irregular in passage. Doan's Kidney Pills relieved the backache and other symptoms of kidney complaint." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mrs. Kelly had. Foster-Milburn Co., Prois., Buffalo, N* Y. No8 The Chronicle?II per year.
