I f Tbe following U from the Hamp> toff County Hergld: An effort is now being made to se. cure for the counties comprising Southern Carolina a baseball league similar to the Barnwell, Bamberg county league. • The matter has been looked into carefully and letters have been sent out to the towns within this territory inviting them to take part In this movement. Al ready Kstill has signified her will ingness to enter an arrangement like this as has also Hampton, Varnville and Brunson. Letters have been sent to Walterboro, Kidgeland, Ehrhardt and Beaufort. Of course if there are any other teams in these counties that are not listed to re ceive letters they will nevertheless >be welcomed in the arrangement. It is hoped that at least six teams can be secured for a series of games; for instance about eighteen games, each town having six games against each opponent. Team^ would b,. re. stricted to the towns that are in Southern Carolina, and ea<h local team would be expected to play only local players. Cqrrespondeme is in vited along this subject. Any one interested for either himself or a team will write the manager of The Herald for any information that he may desire. **************** * * KDISTO ISLAND * v * ******** * * ****** Edisto Island.

Anyone with a bad back; any reader suffering from uri nary troubles, from kidney ills, should find comforting words in the following statement. J S. Jackson, 4 liveryman. Black St . Walterboro, says: “I had a dull, grinding ache fn my hack and pains through my loins. My back was very weak, sore and lame. The kid ney secretions were usually ditcul- ored and deposited sedime nt.
