111 BRAH FOR WALTKItlMtlto!
Hurrah for Walterboro Is th - *
* k yx \
rhout that should resound in re
sponse to the-lively interest shown
in the election for sewerage and wa
terworks which came off Tuesday.
The fact that there were so many
votes for the bondlna of the town
shown that the people are not abso-
tely indifferent to the welfare of
the city; but that they have an in
terest that la along tee line of pro
gress. It shows what the people are
willing to do for the betterment of
health in Walterboro. It shows
progress In sanitary edneatiop.
There Is another interesting fact
'hat > la brought out In the recent
elections, and that la that the new
council is on the job and in htfrmony
with th<fc desires of the people; that
the meir who have been chosen tor
- fill the position of trust and to ad-
mihister tee laws here are keeping
.heir pledges t work for the build
ing of a Greater Walterboro. It wll
be remembered that many of the
candidates for municipal offices
pledged themselves to support the
measures for tbe improvement of
vaterworka and for the Installation
cf a sewerage system. It is certain

First Dom* End; Indigestion, Heart
burn or tins on Stomach.
The question as to how long you
are going to continue a sufferer
from Indigestion, dyspepsia or out
cf order stomach is merely a mat
ter of how soon you begin taking
Tonoline Tablets. x ‘ X
People with weak stomachs
should take Toaollne Tablets occa
sionally and there will be no more
indigestion, no feeling like a lump
of lead In the stomach, no heart
burn, sour risings, gas on stomach,
cr belching of undigested food,
headaches, dizziness or > sick stom
ach; and besides, what you eat will
not ferment and prison your breath
with nauseous odors. All "these
symptoms resulting from a sour,
out of order stomach and dyspep
sia are generally relieved five min
utes after taking Tnolihe Tablets.
Go to your druggts- and get a $1
box of Tonoline Tablets and you
f will always go to the ;able with a
hearty appetite, and whot you eat
will taate good, because your stom
ach and intestines will he clean and
fresh, and you will know there are
not going to be enf more bad' nights
and miserable days for you. Ton-
ollne tabs freshen you and make you
fool like life is worth living. «
Tonoline Tablete cost $1.00 for a
10 days’ treatment. ■ At .druggietk

Encouraging Sheep Kal-ing in tl»e

To encourage Southern farmers
to take up sheep raiste.g, live-
stock department of the Southern
Railway has Usucd a booklet tell
ing of the advantages of the South
for this industry and giving full in
formation In regard to the care and
management of sheep under condi
tions obtaining In the South. A
copy of the booklet will be mailed
to any farmer on request by Live-
si,* k Agent F. 1.. Word
The booklet reproduces an arti
cle on sheep raising by R. 8. Curtis,
an authority on livestock connect-
rd ,with the North Carolina Experi
ment Station, who says in his Intro
duction of the adaptability of the
Souti* to sheep raising: .
• The sheep industry of the South
a* row conducted t« presents one of
t>-‘ most ba«kwu-j and the least
profitable lines of livestock husban
dry followed. A large part of the
waste land in this section could be
used profitably for sheep raising.
Much of the rough and otherwise un : -
used land now, covered with coarse
grass®* and ‘forest /undergrowth
would Jhirntsh a large amount of
pasture and .at tbe same time the
soil would be greatly Improved' In
agricultural value by.the use of
sheep. For tbe amount of money
invested and tbe qnaatity of food
required sheep will generally return
a greater net profit than most ony
other kind of livestock that may bo
raised In tbe South.”
