It has put its influence squarely behind every movement that tended to improve their condition- educational, financial, etc. We realize that the destiny of the paper is inseparably linked with that of this section. ^ Our ability to help in the advancement of this section is limited to the number of subscribers that we reach each week, and our present ambition is to increase to a large extcjnt our “sphere of in fl uence.“ To do this we must have a larger number of readers, authough our mailing list at present will compare most favorably with that of any weekly in this section of South Carolina. We are ambitious to have THE PEOPLE go into EVERY home in Barnwell County, and to this end we are going to ask the co operation of our friends. Here is the plan: We want every subscriber to THE PEOPLE to go to a neighbor who does not take the paper and persuade him or her to subscribe. Of course, we prefer to have payment in advance, but realizing that money is scarce just now, we are willing to extend credit to responsible parties, and at the bottom of this advertisement will be found a promis sory note for the benefit of those who may not have $ 1.50 to spare at this time. This note is made payable October I 5 th, without interest, and all that is necessary to start the paper coming is for the prospective subscriber to sign same, giving us a reference and stating at which bank in the county he does business. Thus it will not be necessary to spend one cent at this time, nor, as stated above, will interest be charged on the note from now to October I 5th. % THE PEOPLE is making this offer because we believe that we have somethin of value to offer. Now as never before the peoole of Barnwell County need a weekly newspaper. Many are unable to contiue taking daily papers, but they can keep posted on world happenings by reading the severalcolumns of general news each week. In ad dition THE PEOPLE has one of the most efficient corps of correspondents of any paper in this section, and many items of local interest appear in these columns that are not published in any other paper., Then there are soecinl articles on a variety of subjects,- weekly installments of popular novels (two or three being published during the course of a vear that would cost $1.50 each in book form - a new one begins next week), farm articles, etc., etc. Andd this is campaign year” and the voters, both men and women, will want to keep track of the candidates, State and county. Where else can you get such real value for less than 3 cents a week? Can we count on your help in this matter, Friend Subscriber? Who will be the first to take this copy of THE PEOPLE to a neighbor and secure a subscription? We will give the first five subscribers sending us a NEW PAID pearly subscription credit for one year on their paper. Get busy NOW! Don’t wait a minute!

That is what I did some time ago when I found myself in a very nervous, run-down condition of health. I was sotiird and felt so Hfeless I could hardly go at aQ. “I was just no account for work.
