History cf the world as contains' in the Holy Llil lc proves that prayer has had no little 1 > do in the mattei of great wars waged from time t< time since the wcrld began.

Are you a bad back victim ? Suffer twinges; headaches, dizzy spelts? Go to bed tired?get up tired? It's surprising how few suspect the kidneys. Kidney trouble needs kidney treatment. Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kidneys only. Have convinced Conway people of their merit. Here's a Conway case; Conway testimony. Kidney sufferers hereabouts should rcia^ it. JW. W. Cook, Main Street, Conway, S; C.j says: "1 don't hesitate to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills, for I know from experience that they act just as represented. I got Doan's Kidney Pills from the Norton Drug Co., when I was suffering from pain and lameness in my back, caused by disordered kidneys. They brought me relief at once." Price 50c, fit all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mr. Cook had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.?adv. Want 8 Per Cent. The people of North Carolina who need money to got their crops to market and to tide them over the shock of the war are becoming interested in the. money distribution from WashingIon.

PLACRP AGAINST WALL AND SHOT IN COLD BLOOD i GIVES VIVID ACCOUNT In Thousands of Cases the European War Makes I'orrors I'nspeakehle,? i Only a Few Will Drift Through to Be Bead About Ilere. I London, Sept. 11.?One of the most , vivid accounts cf an episode of the I war comes irom the Lokal Areiger of August 24. It Is a letter from PauF Oskar Hoccker, a Berlin playwright, now serving as captain of the reserve. His play, "A Nation in Arms," i is being given at the Berlin opera House. | He describes a mission on which he was dispatched to search for arms in Belgian villages from which shots had been fired by civilians on the Germans. His instructions were that those i 11 whose possession arms were found after they declared that they had none were to he shot. At Jungsbusch, he says, he found at one house an old man, a woman and a girl of thirteen. "Then a terrible thing happened. A sergenat and a private dragged a young fellow out of the house. They had found him hiding among the straw in the loft. He had in his hand a Belgian rifle loaded with live cartridges. From the opening in the roof he may have aimed at many an honest German. The youth had to put up his hands. Stammering and deadly ly pale, he stands there. "'Who is this youth?' I asked the old man. As if struck by lightning they all three fell on their knees waiting. The woman groaned 'He is my son' for God's sake, you are not going to kill him!' And the little girl sobbed as if her heart would break. The prisoner tried to escape but was put up against the wall with the men. "I had to picture to myself by force the German patrol riding through the night with the bullets of treacherous francs-tireus whistling around their , helmets and think of the tall figures and bright' eyes of our good German fellows in ortfer to master my nerves in face of this horror and fulfill my orders. "He has to be shot. The men! Ready! "Three men commanded, who were fathers of families, two from Berlin and one farmer, did not turn a hair. This is a just business. The volley rang out . The trembling body collapsed to the ground and did not move again. The boy's eyes are closed. His ! face has not changed its expression, j "Death by our rifles is painless. I "'Wc ought to burn the old man's I house over his head,' said one of my men. " 'Quick, march,' I ordered. The thre peasants are still kneeling on the ground; the corpse lies up against the wall. ' - . * j| v | ? * f Resumed on Floor. Elimination of $18,000,000 fron*. river and harbor bil appropriations by the Senate Commerce committee as additional war emergency relief to the Treasury failed last Saturday to appease opponents of the measure and the filibuster against it was resumed on the floor. Wants President to Approve. 1 House Democrats want President I Wilson to approve openly the proposed 3 per cent tax on freight bills be1 fore a war revenue bill carrying that provision is introduced. That the force of his approval is necessary was agreed upon last Saturday by administration leaders. j hi5 Last Meal ||| 1 ^ [JJ RAT CORN i \ A It better than a )i I dozen Cats.
