I was in terrible shape. “And my liver was so sluggish it just seemed to have quit acting. ~I was weak and run down? from head to foot, had headaches almost Con tinually, fcnd talk about feeling bad, I just felt terrible all over. “When I saw what this Karnak was doing for other folks, why, you can bet I wasn’t going on suf- * fering without giving this new medicine a trial. And I want to tell you it’s the finest I have ever I took Karnak and the Kar- Pills, too, and the bloating, in- ition and constipation have just been knocked sky high. “I just put away'a big meal xvow without it ever bothering me in the least In fact, it gives me new strength and energy and keeps me in good working trim.

T Local and Personal ■ j News from Williston A Big Investment Required T the close of the year 1924. the Southern Bell. Telephone - Company had a,total investment in service of $58,987,629, not including $337,778 of construction work in progress. \ I Of this large investment, a substantial portion is located in the State of SOuth Carolina. \ . •—' ♦ N. Replacements and additional plant to meet the growing needs of the telephone users of South Carolina was installed last year at a cost of approximately H45,800. The new plant is necessarily bought at today’s prices, which, for equipment, material and other major parts of the telephone system, are 65 per dent higher lhan the pre-war prices. Wages and taxes alone are from 100 to 350 per cent higher. An even greater investment must be made in South Carolina this year, with the result that the investment per telephone stdflon Is rapidly rising without a'proportionate increase in the revenue per telephone Station. The enormous sums of money needed each year cannot be Z, secured unless the Telephone Company’s credit is good, and the company’s credit is judged by the earnings on the investment In vice. servi Telephone users are familiar with the increased extent and value of telephone service in South Carolina, and* the company la encouraged to believe that they will co-operate In making possible the enormous extensions needed in ttfe early future. .
